`13.Jan.2003` John Klas (E-Mail)	Sixgirls Computing Labs is under attack John Klos from Sixgirls Computing Labs writes: Sixgirls Computing Labs, which is known for being one of the only hosting services which uses an Amiga as a full time server (reva.sixgirls.org), is experiencing a massive denial of service attack of unprecedented magnitude. A previous attack saturated the 10-base-T connection of the Amiga server with over 7 Mbps of syn packets, which caused loss of most connectivity for part of a day, but the machine was put behind another Sixgirls server with 100-base-T connections which filters this traffic. Another attack began at midnight EST Sunday morning. Information from the upstream router shows that this attack is using 150 Mbps of traffic to make the connection unusable. Measures will be put into place to block this traffic upstream, and normal service should resume sometime Monday. The authorities are investigating. Temporarily, you may have trouble accessing sites which are hosted on reva.sixgirls.org, such as: http://distributed.amiga.org/ http://www.totalamiga.org/ http://www.seal-amiga.co.uk/ http://ireland.amiga.org/ and others. Please check back. (ps) [News message: 13. Jan. 2003, 18:52] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
`11.Jan.2003` Stefan Ruppert (ANF)	Red card for Internet investigators Stefan Ruppert wrote: Just stumbled across the above mentioned site. Don't know if this has already been posted here but it seems to me to be interesting for all Internet users. Some words about the content: "The Bundesrat has decided concerning a bill that intends the saving of all available data in the area of the classic telecommuncations (calling via cellphone and mobile cell phone, SMS, fax etc.) as well as all data available on the Internet on stock. The goal is to make it possible for the secret services and the offices for prosecution to find data they can access if is needed. Details shall not be handled in form of laws but through the Federal Government via a statuory instrument." For those who are interested I came via fiff.de to this site.

`11.Jan.2003` Carsten Siegner (ANF)	Conrad Elektronik: USB/Firewire to IDE interface At Conrad Elektronik you can buy an interface for USB/FireWire to IDE. With this interface it shall be possible to run an external IDE tower with hard disks for example via the USB interface card Highway. This interface handles on the IDE side ATA and ATAPI (PIO 0-4 and UDMA 0-4). Interesting though is the question whether this interface can work also in the other direction. IDE to USB/FireWire. Supplement: Link to the interface removed as they use with single session IDs. So all interested have to wade through to the interface's page themselves. (ps) (Translation: wk) [News message: 11.
