In much happier Nmap news, I'm pleased to report that the Nmap projectnow has a public SVN server so you can always check out the latestversion. Due to a bug in SVN, we use a username as "guest" with nopassword rather than anonymous. So check it out with the command:
$svn co --username guest --password "" svn://svn.insecure.org/nmap
Then do thenormal:
$cd nmap
$./configure --prefix=/opt/nmap
$make
$sudo make install

go fsck daddy - who is your daddy now

GoDaddy isn’t smart enough to distinguish a legitimate security research website from criminal phishing scam site, so they were really quick to pull it’s domain name after they got a complaint from MySpace.

converting 3gp movies to flv

In todays mobile phones the 3GPP standard is widely in use for videos on the phone.
we use two tools mencoder (from mplayer) and ffmpeg (from mplayer too)

we extract the movie without sound
/opt/mplayer/bin/mencoder movie.3g2 -nosound -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4 -o movie.avi
then we extract the audio file into audiodump.wav
/opt/mplayer/bin/mplayer -vo null -ao pcm -af resample=8000,volume=+4db:sc movie.3g2
we combine the two stream into an flv moovie
/opt/ffmpeg/bin/ffmpeg -i movie.avi -i audiodump.wav movie.flv

then you can put the movie on your server
http://jan.kneschke.de/projects/flv-streaming/

Here is how i compiled the ffmpeg
follow the steps from this tutorial
http://howto-pages.org/ffmpeg/#build
here is my final configure command
./configure --prefix=/opt/ffmpeg --enable-amr_nb --enable-amr_wb --enable-libogg --enable-vorbis --enable-libgsm --enable-xvid --enable-a52 --enable-mp3lame --enable-gpl
make && make install
for mplayer here is how i did it
wget http://www2.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/MPlayer-1.0rc1.tar.bz2
wget http://www2.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/essential-20061022.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf ../essential-20061022.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf ../MPlayer-1.0rc1.tar.bz2
mkdir /usr/lib/codecs/
cd essential-20061022
mv * /usr/lib/codecs/
./configure --prefix=/opt/mplayer

some debian packages are needed before all of these
apt-get install libgsm1-dev toolame libtwolame-dev libgsm1-dev libvorbis-dev libfaad-dev libogg libogg-dev


lame and xvid were installed from source

how to speed up dns for faster browsing

[i use this tip for speeding up dns resolving when i access zapp network wireless or romtelecom adsl ]
You can run a DNS cache on your computer. This will speed up the process of looking up domain names when browsing. The difference is about 30-60 ms. Multiply that difference by the number of websites you visit a day for an approximate estimate of the speed improvement.The following instructions are for someone with a broadband internet connection, where the computer gets it’s local IP address using DHCP from the router in your home or office.
