My New Forum Running On OSX

[xyle_one]

We are an elite (though new & unknown) force of mac fanatics whose sole purpose is to convert the masses (windowslusers) to the greatness that is mac, or something along those lines. i have a count of two converts under my belt now. i am working on my next two...(evil laughter)

[Pissed_Macman]

Here's the thread that started the Mac Commandos.

Xyle, what is your approach when converting?

well, constant comparing helps. when my sister comes over, we get to talking about computers and she is always complaining that her (windows)pc is screwing up, or it did this, or she had to reinstall the os again, blah blah blah. then i say, well, my pc has its share of problems, but my mac hasnt had one major error yet. it hasnt crashed. if she has a problem, i compare it to my mac. now she wants one. so do my parents. when they see how clean it looks, and how easy it is to just start using it, they get this wide eyed look of "i never thought it could be like this!!". especially when i open the case for them, they always ask, where are all the cables, where is the clutter?!?!..they are very shocked that it could be so clean. so basically i am doing what the switch ads are doing, comparing winpc to mac, but i go the extra step and show them how it runs and show them things like how badass itunes is, or how easy it is to get photos off of my digital camera, i could go  on and on, but i think we have all heard it.    
i try not to force it to them though. i have found most people to be very unresponsive when i do that.

since I fit into the Mac commando category, could I join into it, and are there any requirements or is it just a fun thing to do to act as a group?

also, when I get around to it, I will do that dynamic dns thing to make my site more compatible for you wishing for more protection

I'm actually not certain he knows how, or has a reson for not doing it, he doesn't have an anything.skinner.com not even for his mail server and stuff.

Now I will append the :Mac Commando to my name

[black_angel2]

The only problem is that the icons in the forum look kind of like MSN???

Anyone else noticed this?

Also ports 69   tftp
           113  auth, tap, ident
           1033

are open.

What uses port 1033 it is listed as unassigned

[Master of Reality]

there's more ports open than that.
here are teh results of my portscan. Your prolly not actually running the microsoft thing or Upnp but thats what normally uses that port so nmap thinks that is what it is.
Tell me if you rather not have my results posted on the net.

i figured it out, the firewall was off on one of my PC's, for XBox Multiplayer.  I use a NAT firewall, so at any given time I can allow all ports to go to one computer.

[Pissed_Macman]

Visiting that forum made me realize the smileys at this one kinda suck.

[billy_gates]

Thanks for complimenting my smilies, but you must understand that the interface and "Neatos" on the forum are all there by default, I havn't added anything in.

P.S. Another comparison to this forum: according to Ikonboard php is much faster than CGI, so I must also have that advantage over this site.
