I just plug them in and they go here. As I stated, the Apple machines have no problems finding and displaying the network and what is attached to the network, which, by the way is not running on the Apple or Windoze OS. It's the Windoze machine that was the minor pain to get onto the network. Windows got cranky on the network at release 7, one reason why I like the dinosaur XP OS. It is supposed to be for enhanced security. I can understand that if you are a WiFi guy but my network is wired. You would have to break in and plug in a cable to get to me. You know NSA has invisible dongles, right? ![]() Those still require that somebody get access to your hardware. Realistically, if NSA wants to know, they will know unless you are living in a cabin, off the grid, in Montana and you never go outside. I remember that the teletype machines and some other equipment on Navy ships generated what was called a "tempest" hazard. It is an electromagnetic emission that can be detected and read by a remote receiver. There is a tempest hazard with wired connections to computers as well. The electromagnetic emission can be through the cables themselves. However, since the voltages and current are so low, you'd probably have to be next to the cable to pick anything up. It's still a concern however in some communication systems. |
