-----Original Message----- From: Nail, Larry [mailto:lnail@xxxxxx]=20 >Trend isn't all that demanding cpu & memory wise... My view, better safe than looking for a job. You actually worry about losing your job over getting hacked? Well, you're working at the wrong place then. You should come work here. Let machines (this includes both servers and workstations) get hacked here and you'll get promoted after spending 2-3 days rebuilding the infected machines from scratch. Another important point is to make sure you don't learn your lesson and let it happen again by yet again failing to install patches that have been out for months and that could have protected your machines. Keep your machines patched and protected and you'll get ignored and then brushed off and told that you just "got lucky" even when you have tons of logs showing that the miscreants who succeeded with hacking the machines that weren't under your responsibility umbrella were the same miscreants thwarted on your machines. I've been "getting lucky" for nearly 5.5 years now, problem is I just don't have it in me to be a slacker so I guess I'm just not ever going to be promotion material here. The only reason I'm not out looking for a new job (besides the economy problems) is that fortunately for me, I'm "retiring" soon. /end rant I loved Ray's comments about riding a horse to work and motorcyle jumping the Grand Canyon, ROFL. I'm going to use that "do you ride a horse to work?" with one of my friends who still insists on using Win98 and says the same thing, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Nevermind that the machine is like a big blinking neon sign inviting hackers in when they are on the internet... =================================== This weeks Sponsor: ThinPrint - High resolution, DRIVER FREE PRINTING with no loss of quality in color. - Removes print spooling and rendering tasks from your terminal server. http://www.thinprint.com =================================== For Archives, to Unsubscribe, Subscribe or set Digest or Vacation mode use the below link. http://thethin.net/citrixlist.cfm
