All Platform, All Device Terminal for System Administrators
There’s a general perception that Server System Administrators are short, overweight lonely men with overgrown beards who work in dark dungeon like basements, maintaining the worlds servers and keeping the internet running. Where this perception comes from, I’m not quite sure. Hollywood perhaps! Truth is, they’re just regular people like you and me. They may work in very different environments to most of us, but it’s all about to change. And this is thanks to a company called Cybele Software Incorporated.
z/Scope Anywhere is a software service for System Administrators, but with a completely revolutionary new concept. z/Scope Anywhere v7.0, currently in beta, allows for safe and secure access to IBM Mainframes, AS/400 and other Unix server systems. The unique feature of the software lies with its ability to give the user control of such systems from a complete range of systems including iPhone, Android and Blackberry devices. And you can also access the server with Mac OS, Linux and Windows systems. And there’s complete support for all types of web browsers, Apple Safari, Mozilla Firefox, Windows Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. In fact, Cybele Software Incorporated has just about every device, operating system and web browser covered when it comes to accessibility. The only real requirement is the web browser being used for access must be HTML5 compliant and have JavaScript enabled. But the most recent of all browsers should be ready out-of-the-box. There’s a good list of detailed requirements on the z/Scope page on the website.
We no longer live in an era of solely servers, desktop and the occasional laptop. There’s a lot more devices available at our disposal including netbooks, tablets and smart phones, all capable of acceptable internet access from almost anywhere. z/Scope has made the job of server System Administrators a lot more convenient. It can still be an intense and demanding job with many serious responsibilities, but if accessibility the worlds critical servers are within reach of the safe hands of our System Administrators wherever they are, then that has to be a good thing.

Larry Page is not being completely honest! The manner in which the PRISM program/project works does not need access from company administrators or owners, so called “direct access”; the access to the information is already there. These tech company CEOs take for granted the actual intelligence of most end users of their products. All it takes is a little digging and reading to go from ignorant to informed on these things especially on exactly how the internet works/functions in the U.S.A. I find Larry Page’s remarks just as laughable as Al Gore’s claim to “inventing” the internet/world wide web!
If you, as an end user, are reading this post; I challenge you to research these matters yourself. It really is quite simple with all the “information sites” that exist on the web today ie Wikipedia, & other online encyclopedias that actually list source material, as well as highly respected tech sites and blogs that also list their source material. Be warned: this is only the tip of the iceberg and these tech CEOs know and understand this; they are scrambling in attempt to perform DAMAGE CONTROL to save the company and what little trust thay have left from their products end users/consumers.
Am I a skeptic? I believe someone has to be or needs to be at this point in time! If your not just a little skeptical of the government, tech companies, and the people that are in charge of these agencies and companies; you need to be, even if just a little skeptic. For your own personal protection and security! I know I was a part of this community for over 14 years!

As I understand it so do VLC use same encoders as ffmpeg. And yes, there are less code that can break when you use command line instead of a graphical UI.
And may I ask what mono has to do with VLC? *facepalm*

Just some thoughts about Java.
OpenJDK7 are now THE Java implementation and Oracles are just one more of the reimplementations. So you should not need to install Oracles version.
And you really don’t need to remove the OpenJDK7 installation to also have Sun Java JDK 7. Just run
sudo update-java-alternatives –list
and select which java you want to have as default java of all that is installed.
And if you want to run a program with one special version, check manpage for java-wrappers how to do that.
man java-wrappers
so you can run java program rasterizer like this:
JAVA_FLAVOR=openjdk rasterizer
JAVA_ARGS=-Xmx80m rasterizer
JAVA_BINDIR=/usr/share/
etc

Yes, it is. If you are a “5 years old schizophrenic kid” who can’t restrict what effects to use and what to not use. It’s actually usefull, if you can restrain yourself.

Agree with BA. You should teach how to remove telnetd from your servers, and tell them to use SSH instead.
And explain that telnet is not secured. It’s easy for anyone to see what you type in clear text or MIM-attacks.
Or you might want to add a kerberos version of telnetd and se to it that it denies any try without kerberos authorization.
The tool telnet is usefull, for example to explain how SMTP protocoll or HTTP-protocoll works by making the user be the client (mail client or web client).
But you do not need to install telnetd for that.
