My New Forum Running On OSX

[billy_gates]

I am trying to learn some stuff about Linux, specifically Apache, MySQL, and PHP.  I just installed a new forum that runs off of my powermac.  I need you guys to go there and try to overload it the site is:
http://www.skinner.com/jeffberg/bbs/index.php
So go there and try to overload it.

P.S. for you windows guys, this is your chance to jam a Mac

Ooooohh nice firewall...

A bit slow. What is your connection speed?

And your ISP doesn't allow servers, I presume. How did you get it to redirect to port 69? I'd love to know, as I am in the same predicament.

I joined!

[Master of Reality]

for some reason my proxy wont let me go there.
I'll fix it and then look.

[billy_gates]

I'll answer your questions in order, but first, are you being sarcastic with the "Ooooh, nice firewall" thing or is my firewall actually any good?  Now to the answers.

I am running on Cox Cable, at around 5-8.

Yes they block port 80, those cox!

www.skinner.com is my step uncle's domain running off of his own Linux server. Therefore I asked him to make /jeffberg redirect to my IP Address 68.5.141.xxx:69, it is a standard apache feature.  I don't know how to add it in the config file, but in Webmin it is quite easy.


Also thanks for joining, now I have 6 members instead of 4, but you two failed in jamming up my mac.  Also I sent a mass email (assuming you put in real emails) you should get it, please tell me if you don't.

No sarcasm, all of my basic port scans show your computer as dead - a good thing.

Secondly, don't post your IP on the board unless you like people trying to hack you.

Thirdly, I need to redirect my main addy to a port, not a subdirectory. So I need to find another way to do it. Thanks anyway.

He might as well post his IP, the redirect goes to the IP address, which means I can't get to it because I block all sites that go to directly to IP address and only allow named sites (makes life easier when setting up Squid restrictions). Is there any way you can get a host name from a dynamic DNS service for your dynamic IP address and have the redirect go to the name?

[Master of Reality]

ya... my proxy blocks it too.

You should get a domain from fuckmicrosoft.com

[xyle_one]

well, i thought that i would join. and spread the joy that is... well, everything we can find to fight about.  

[billy_gates]

too profane for handing out those fuckbillgates.com/jeffberg sites at school, I'm only 16 you know.  And to void man, isn't there a termporary way to get around your squid patrols? You don't want them on this forum, why would you want them on mine.

P.S. I have no word blockers because I'm too lazy to write them in, although I'm thinking of making Apple turn into everyone's favorite computer company or everyone's favorite fruit company, but I'm not sure I will follow through with that plan.

P.S.S. tell your friends about my site, especially if they like cars, if u notice the top of the forum is devoted to cars.

P.S.S.S. Me and some friends are making web pages for small fees in order to compete with other friends, and if I display to my parental units that I can host a successful web server, we could host our clients pages, for a little extra of course.  So tell you friends that a couple of geniuses from Southern California are making web pages for cheap, and if we have enough customers willing to pay for their sites to be hosted, they will be.

[voidmain]

Yes I can get around it but I just thought you might like to know that some people will not be able to get to your site unless you use a name. I have hostnames through www.dyndns.org which is free (actually I made a couple of donations but you don't have to). And there are many other dynamic DNS services that are also free if you don't want to go with them.

[Pissed_Macman]

haha, he said cox

[Pantso]

Great forum! As of today, you can count me in as a member!  

[billy_gates]

Mac Commandos are Mac fanatics who love Macs, and raid Mac haters.
