'makekey' for Linux Apparently there was also (and may still be somewhere) a command line "crypt" that I could have "front-ended" for my needs, but it doesn't exist on my system. As there really isn't much to this, I just went ahead and wrote what I needed.
Protecting from Lightning Grounding is everything, especially if building B gets its power from building A. Also, a high quality UPS (not the door stops made by APC!) is essential to protect hardware from power line hits. In areas frequented by lightning strikes, equipment should be powered by a ferroresonant UPS, which has far greater capacity to withstand strikes than a line interactive or double conversion unit
Lost Password OSR5 A automotive repair client has an IBM T30 laptop that is used to configure the electronic control module (ECM) in BMW automobiles. The custom BMW-developed software runs on OpenServer 5.0.6, the latter which has been configured to launch what appears to be a KDE session as the unit progresses through run mode 2 startup. Evidently this was meant to be a closed system - most likely to prevent theft of the ECM software - as everything possible was done to prevent the user from interfering with the boot process and getting to a shell.
