Stuck on a dynamic IP but want to run the bridge? I've got a solution

by sampsa＠mac.com

I don't have an actual number but it's almost unnoticeable on a 2 mbps and up link, it's never caused me an issue at least, even when running HECnet over 3G UMTS :) BQT might have more specifics.. sampsa <sampsa at mac.com> mobile +358 40 7208932 On 12 Oct 2013, at 18:44, Hans Vlems <hvlems at zonnet.nl> wrote: Side question : how much bandwidth does HECnet claim for its housekeeping traffic (hello messages, routing updates etc)?

I've got a solution Basically my network in Hila's Internet connection is a HSUPA cellular router (relatively fast 15/6mbps or so) but the operator does not give me a static IP. So I decided to VPN into my network in London, assign each VPN account a specific static IP and run the bridge over the VPN. It's been working great for about a year now - so anybody who needs a bridge connection and can run pppd is welcome to link up with me. sampsa <sampsa at mac.com> mobile +358 40 7208932

SSD for Vax

by clemc＠ccc.com

it was left over from a silliness when IBM wrote the bios roms on the AT. they packed h:c:s codes in two 16 bit integers. in thoses days a 5.25 st-506 drive maxed out at 20M. dec is using 19" SMD technology that are maxing in 500M range at the same time. PC technology used to take lots of short cuts like that and the folks were proud of it because they had not experienced anything like dec or the mainframe for that matter remember the 8" floppy was invented by IBM as a way to store and load the microcode on the original Winchester (aka 3030) disk the PC guys take it and use it as a storage device.

Which is great, but again you run in to the snag that I've never seen a SATA disk smaller than 40GB and the upper size limit on a VAXstation is typically 18GB. Somewhat problematic. I have 2 20G laptop SCSI drives... WHY does this keep coming up? There is no such limitation!
