On his Planet KDE blog, James Ots mentions If you're in the USA it might be illegal to download my file, so this file is only for people who live in free countries. Or at least semi-free countries, like the UK. What? I don't understand this. Is he kidding? I know there are USA restrictions on exporting crypotography still, and also restrictions via DMCA, but I fail to see how either of these apply here. Any ideas?

My guess is he just doesn't know what he is talking about here. You still have to fill out special forms before exporting encryption. It's not quite as moot as you think and it hinders U.S. developers. e: http://www.bis.doc.gov/Encryption/PubAvailEncSourceCodeNofify.html Z-Bo fucked around with this message at 15:28 on Apr 9, 2007 |

I'm trying to find out which file gftp uses to store login credentials. I have an old ftp account I haven't used in over a year on a box that I can only ssh into. I've misplaced my login credentials for the ftp account, but am sure it is still stored in some file on that box. How can I get at it?

teapot posted:Stopping services or reversing changes that were done by scripts that do/start something and undo/stop it when given different arguments. I kind of figured this, but what I am really trying to find is a concrete example where this is actually done. I mean, I understand that "run-parts" is intended to run scripts in chunks, and so the scripts are likely to be different only by a character or two, probably a digit. But, why would I want switch back and forth from scriptchunk1 to scriptchunk9, and from scriptchunk9 to scriptchunk1.
