Bought a few CDs and got them the next day, including a couple of newies... Savatage - Poets and Madmen, absolutely sensational, even includes a bonus Mpeg of Handful of Rain. Ice Age - Liberation, which isn't bad, but a bit too similar to The Great Divide... it seems pretty much to be The Great Divide II. Still very good though. Anyone got other comments on these discs? They have a very extensive range... pretty much all of Symphony X, Stratovarius, Royal Hunt, Fates Warning, Pain Of Salvation, Vanishing Point, Vanden Plas... you name it. Oh yea, they said they'll be getting the DT DVD in too, so it may be cheaper through them than buying from OSt too. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2001 18:34:12 -0600 From: "Dark Majesty" To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: Re: Response to Fluttering Message-ID: Thanks a lot, man! I'm not too familiar with the Floyd Rose system, and any help is definitely appreciated. Now playing: Dream Theater - "Lifting Shadows Off A Dream" Thanks again, --96 >>In response to "Dark Majesty's" question about the floyd rose trem: The instruction manual tells you that the arm should be parallel to the body as a refrence to how much tension you need on your springs vs your strings. if your arm is up too high, you need to tighten your strings and loosen your springs in the back of the guitar. that will stabalize the arm and put the bridge in playing position. having your bridge alligned incorrectly can lower the life on your strings and also make the guitar suck to play. I work at Guitar Center in Baltimore and I take in used Ibanez and Jackson guitars all the time with poorly treated trem systems. It is a shame to see. Visit jemsite.com and look at their suggestions for how to get your floyd rose in perfect shape. if you get your trem set up right, you'll be able to flutter much better.

I was doing some spring cleaning and I just found two of the original black Ytsejam T-Shirts (one XXL and one XXXL). I don't remember how much they originally were but I never wore them. They are black with a small ytsejam logo and the words "Ytsejam, the internet mailing list" on the front at pocket level and a large DREAM THEATER logo and the phrase "Let the light surround you" on the back. If I remember correctly, some of the ink is glow in the dark. If anybody is interested in buying either one or both please drop me an email at email_address_removed Thanks, Tom Tubbiola ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2001 21:56:05 -0600 From: =?iso-8859-1?Q?Mauricio_Mart=EDnez?= To: Subject: Re: TEOF Message-ID: <026301c0b34d$31d3ed40$message_id_removed.mx> dude, you just missed out on a huge DT vs SX thread! it was fun!

They do import a great range of cd's and vids bit they've always been a bit on the pricey side.

It contains all of their videos with four different audio tracks for each one (Stereo 2.0, Dolby Digital 5.1, DTS (oh yeah), and Audio Commentary by the band). Besides all of this there are a few behind the scenes clips hidden throughout the disc. Plus, I think I got it for around $16 (US) from www.hmv.com I definitely recommend this DVD (and the band) highly... ~Michael Kizer < email_address_removed > < ICQ # 2070538 > "Enter ivory gates through midnight skies..." ~ http://www.ivorygate.com >>> Fates Warning ~ Island In The Stream <<< >>> Dream Theater and Kevin Moore "Unofficial" Song Books <<< >>> Underground Internet Radio at: http://www.ytseradio.com <<< ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2001 03:20:05 -0500 From: "email_address_removed" To: "ytsejam@torchsong.com" Subject: Metalfests - Graham's Giglist Message-ID: <200103230320191.SM04672@m2w024> Brian, thanks for those links to those 2 US festivals - I'm trying hard to keep my list of Metal festivals uptodate at http://www.powerplaymagazine.co.uk/bands/festivals/metalfest.htm I've got 2 lined up for the next week: Lost Horizon (no buzz about these boys yet???), Dyslesai, Mob Rules, Silent Farce ( :-)) ), Shaman (whoah!

I have confirmed the validity of this warning at several different respected virus sites, so it's not a hoax. http://www.sans.org/y2k/lion.htm Additionally, there are links to CERT and a few others further down the page. ~NEVER blindly accept these warnings; follow the links and verify them before you send them on~ -------------------------- A DANGEROUS NEW WORM IS SPREADING ON THE INTERNET March 23, 2001 7:00 AM Late last night, the SANS Institute (through its Global Incident Analysis Center) uncovered a dangerous new worm that appears to be spreading rapidly across the Internet. It scans the Internet looking for Linux computers with a known vulnerability. It infects the vulnerable machines, steals the password file (sending it to a China.com site), installs other hacking tools, and forces the newly infected machine to begin scanning the Internet looking for other victims. Several experts from the security community worked through the night to decompose the worm's code and engineer a utility to help you discover if the Lion worm has affected your organization. Updates to this announcement will be posted at the SANS web site, http://www.sans.org DESCRIPTION The Lion worm is similar to the Ramen worm. However, this worm is significantly more dangerous and should be taken very seriously. It infects Linux machines running the BIND DNS server. It is known to infect bind version(s) 8.2, 8.2-P1, 8.2.1, 8.2.2-Px, and all 8.2.3-betas. The specific vulnerability used by the worm to exploit machines is the TSIG vulnerability that was reported on January 29, 2001. The Lion worm spreads via an application called "randb". Randb scans random class B networks probing TCP port 53. Once it hits a system, it checks to see if it is vulnerable. If so, Lion exploits the system using an exploit called "name". It then installs the t0rn rootkit. Once Lion has compromised a system, it: Sends the contents of /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, as well as some network settings to an address in the china.com domain. Deletes /etc/hosts.deny, eliminating the host-based perimeter protection afforded by tcp wrappers. Installs backdoor root shells on ports 60008/tcp and 33567/tcp (via inetd, see /etc/inetd.conf) Installs a trojaned version of ssh that listens on 33568/tcp Kills Syslogd , so the logging on the system can't be trusted Installs a trojaned version of login Looks for a hashed password in /etc/ttyhash - /usr/sbin/nscd (the optional Name Service Caching daemon) is overwritten with a trojaned version of ssh. The t0rn rootkit replaces several binaries on the system in order to stealth itself. Here are the binaries that it replaces: du, find, ifconfig, in.telnetd, in.fingerd, login, ls, mjy, netstat, ps, pstree, top "Mjy" is a utility for cleaning out log entries, and is placed in /bin and /usr/man/man1/man1/lib/.lib/. in.telnetd is also placed in these directories; its use is not known at this time. A setuid shell is placed in /usr/man/man1/man1/lib/.lib/.x DETECTION AND REMOVAL We have developed a utility called Lionfind that will detect the Lion files on an infected system. Simply download it, uncompress it, and run lionfind. This utility will list which of the suspect files is on the system. At this time, Lionfind is not able to remove the virus from the system. If and when an updated version becomes available (and we expect to provide one), an announcement will be made at this site. Download Lionfind at http://www.sans.org/y2k/lionfind-0.1.tar.gz REFERENCES Further information can be found at: http://www.sans.org/current.htm http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2001-02.html, CERT Advisory CA-2001-02, Multiple Vulnerabilities in BIND http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/196945 ISC BIND 8 contains buffer overflow in transaction signature (TSIG) handling code http://www.sans.org/y2k/t0rn.htm Information about the t0rn rootkit.
