Glenn Brunette's Security WeblogRambling musings and practical tips (mostly related to security).HEADSUP: Solaris 10 Security Best Practices- January 31, 2008 Just a quick heads-up note to say that the official Sun location for the Solaris 10 security recommendations documents has changed. While you can still get to the content from the OpenSolaris Security Community Library page, the new location is on sun.com. The recommendations documents have been bundled into an archive so that they can be more easily downloaded in a single step. The individual documents are still available and can be downloaded at: Center for Internet Security, Solaris.http://blogs.sun.com/gbrunett/entry/headsup_solaris_10_security_best World's Youngest Sun Ray on Solaris Nevada User- January 8, 2008 Well, I can hardly believe that three years has passed since the birth of my second son. In keeping with past tradition, today he received his first Sun Ray. Just as his brother before him, he received a Sun Ray 150.

The first test was conducted a year ago with build 42 followed by a test during our summer break on build 68 of Nevada. It should come as no shock then that I conducted another test during the winter break on build 80. The tools and methodology are the same (although there are still some kinks to be worked out to make it fully automated), but for those who have not read my earlier post, I will summarize. ...http://blogs.sun.com/gbrunett/entry/updated_solaris_now_with_more Redshift, Cell Phones and Sun- January 4, 2008 On Monday, December 24th, 2007, Jonathan said: Christmas Day is a day of massively high load for Sun's customers across the world. This year will undoubtedly set a pile of new records. Millions upon millions of network enabled gifts will be given in December, and a huge chunk will be unwrapped and turned on tomorrow. Digital still and video cameras will start pumping content to photovideo sharing services. Mobile phones will need to be provisioned, and will start downloading and sharing...http://blogs.sun.com/gbrunett/entry/participation_age_cell_phones_and |
