  • Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 32 Bit!
    Welcome to Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 32 Bit! What is Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7? Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 is a full replacement for Microsoft©s Windows and Macintosh©s Mac OS for any Intel based PC. Of course we recommend you check the system requirements first to make sure your computer meets our standards. The 64 bit version of Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 works faster than the 32 bit version on a 64 bit PC however the 32 bit version has support for Frets On Fire and a few other 32 bit applications that won©t run on 64 bit. We have worked hard to make sure that you can justify using 64 bit without sacrificing too much compatibility. I would say that Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 64 bit is compatible with 99.9% of all the GNU/Linux applications out there that will work with Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 32 bit. Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 is based on Ubuntu 8.04 but includes KDE 3.5 as the default interface and has the Mac4Lin Gnome interface for Mac users. What is Different Than Windows and Mac? You see with Microsoft©s Windows OS you have to defragment your computer, use an anti-virus, and run chkdsk or a check disk manually or automatically once every 3 months in order to maintain a normal Microsoft Windows environment. With Macintosh©s Mac OS you don©t have to worry about fragmentation but you do have to worry about some viruses and you still should do a check disk on your system every once in a while or whatever is equivalent to that in Microsoft©s Windows OS.

Whether you want to watch the video on your iPod while working out, insert it into a PowerPoint presentation to add some spice, or simply download a video before it’s removed, it’s quite essential to know how to download, convert, and play these videos. There are basically two ways to download videos off the Internet and that’s how I’ll split up this post: either via a web app or via a desktop application.

  • The Edonkey File-Sharing Network
    The eDonkey File-Sharing Network Oliver Heckmann, Axel Bock, Andreas Mauthe, Ralf Steinmetz Multimedia Kommunikation (KOM) Technische Universitat¨ Darmstadt Merckstr. 25, 64293 Darmstadt (heckmann, bock, mauthe, steinmetz)@kom.tu-darmstadt.de Abstract: The eDonkey 2000 file-sharing network is one of the most successful peer- to-peer file-sharing applications, especially in Germany. The network itself is a hybrid peer-to-peer network with client applications running on the end-system that are con- nected to a distributed network of dedicated servers. In this paper we describe the eDonkey protocol and measurement results on network/transport layer and application layer that were made with the client software and with an open-source eDonkey server we extended for these measurements. 1 Motivation and Introduction Most of the traffic in the network of access and backbone Internet service providers (ISPs) is generated by peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing applications [San03]. These applications are typically bandwidth greedy and generate more long-lived TCP flows than the WWW traffic that was dominating the Internet traffic before the P2P applications. To understand the influence of these applications and the characteristics of the traffic they produce and their impact on network design, capacity expansion, traffic engineering and shaping, it is important to empirically analyse the dominant file-sharing applications. The eDonkey file-sharing protocol is one of these file-sharing protocols. It is imple- mented by the original eDonkey2000 client [eDonkey] and additionally by some open- source clients like mldonkey [mlDonkey] and eMule [eMule]. According to [San03] it is with 52% of the generated file-sharing traffic the most successful P2P file-sharing net- work in Germany, even more successful than the FastTrack protocol used by the P2P client KaZaa [KaZaa] that comes to 44% of the traffic.

  • The Perfect Desktop - Linux Mint 3.1 "Celena" FE
    The Perfect Desktop - Linux Mint 3.1 "Celena" FE Version 1.0 Author: Oliver Meyer <o [dot] meyer [at] projektfarm [dot] de> Last edited 10/15/2007 This document describes how to set up a Linux Mint 3.1 "full edition" desktop. The result is a fast, secure and extendable system that provides all you need for daily work and entertainment. Linux Mint 3.1 builds upon Ubuntu Feisty and is compatible to its repositories - about 22.000 packages are available. This howto is a practical guide without any warranty - it doesn't cover the theoretical backgrounds. There are many ways to set up such a system - this is the way I chose. 1 Installation 1.1 Get Linux Mint "Celena" 3.1 FE The cd-image is available at http://linuxmint.com/download.html . 1.2 Live Start/restart your computer and insert the live-cd - be sure that your bios is configured to boot from your cd/dvd drive first. If there are no special reasons to do something else, select "Start Linux Mint" in the first window to boot the live-cd. The live-cd is starting up. A few moments later you'll see the desktop. 1.3 Start The Installation Double-click on the "Install"-button on the desktop. The install wizard appears. Choose your preferred language and proceed. Select the timezone nearest to your location and proceed. Choose your keyboard layout and proceed. Select how you want to partition the disk and proceed. If you chose the manual partition in the window before, you'll see this window.

    Conducting and Optimizing Eclipse Attacks in the Kad Peer-to-Peer Network Michael Kohnen, Mike Leske, and Erwin P. Rathgeb University of Duisburg-Essen, Institute for Experimental Mathematics, Ellernstr. 29, 45326 Essen [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. The Kad network is a structured P2P network used for file sharing. Research has proved that Sybil and Eclipse attacks have been possible in it until recently. However, the past attacks are prohibited by newly implemented secu- rity measures in the client applications. We present a new attack concept which overcomes the countermeasures and prove its practicability. Furthermore, we analyze the efficiency of our concept and identify the minimally required re- sources. Keywords: P2P security, Sybil attack, Eclipse attack, Kad. 1 Introduction and Related Work P2P networks form an overlay on top of the internet infrastructure. Nodes in a P2P network interact directly with each other, i.e., no central entity is required (at least in case of structured P2P networks). P2P networks have become increasingly popular mainly because file sharing networks use P2P technology. Several studies have shown that P2P traffic is responsible for a large share of the total internet traffic [1, 2]. While file sharing probably accounts for the largest part of the P2P traffic share, also other P2P applications exist which are widely used, e.g., Skype [3] for VoIP or Joost [4] for IPTV. The P2P paradigm is becoming more and more accepted also for professional and commercial applications (e.g., Microsoft Groove [5]), and therefore, P2P technology is one of the key components of the next generation internet.
