Bluecurve in use with Fedora 7. Bluecurve is a desktop theme for GNOME and KDE created by the Red Hat Artwork project. The main aim of Bluecurve was to create a consistent look throughout the Linux environment, and provide support for various Freedesktop.org desktop standards.
A network operating system (NOS) is a specialized operating system for a network device such as a router, switch or firewall.. Historically operating systems with networking capabilities were described as network operating systems, because they allowed personal computers (PCs) to participate in computer networks and shared file and printer access within a local area network (LAN).
Windows NT versions 3.5, 3.51 and 4.0 were certified as compliant with FIPS 151-2. The runtime environment of the subsystem is provided by two files: psxss.exe and psxdll.dll . A POSIX application uses psxdll.dll to communicate with the subsystem while communicating with posix.exe to provide display capabilities on the Windows desktop.
In computer networking, xinetd (Extended Internet Service Daemon) is an open-source super-server daemon which runs on many Unix-like systems, and manages Internet-based connectivity. [ 3 ] It offers a more secure alternative to the older inetd ("the Internet daemon"), which most modern Linux distributions have deprecated.
A SYN flood is a form of denial-of-service attack on data communications in which an attacker rapidly initiates a connection to a server without finalizing the connection. The server has to spend resources waiting for half-opened connections, which can consume enough resources to make the system unresponsive to legitimate traffic.
Network Addressable Units in a SNA network are any components that can be assigned an address and can send and receive information. They are distinguished further as follows: [21] a System Services Control Point (SSCP) provides resource management and other session services (such as directory services) for users in a subarea network; [22]
SYN cookie is a technique used to resist SYN flood attacks. The technique's primary inventor Daniel J. Bernstein defines SYN cookies as "particular choices of initial TCP sequence numbers by TCP servers." In particular, the use of SYN cookies allows a server to avoid dropping connections when the SYN queue fills up.
