From: James Nylen ------------------------------------------------------ I was having this issue with EPB earlier today: james@computron:~$ time sudo ifup eth0 Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client V3.1.3 Copyright 2004-2009 Internet Systems Consortium.

I thought it was odd that it took so long for me to get an address (waiting after DHCPREQUEST sent each time), and that the DHCPOFFERs came from two different addresses (x.x.x.2 and x.x.x.3). ..more..

From: Lynn Dixon ------------------------------------------------------ All, Below is the response I got back from Rep. Chuck Fleischmann or someone from his office on my inquiry on SOPA. It looks as if taking a more balanced approach at the legislation. You can be the judge. Note: My first name is Gary, so that is why its addressed as it is. ------------------BEGIN COPY-PASTA------------------------------- Dear Gary: Thank you for contacting me with your concerns about the Stop Online Piracy Act. I appreciate hearing your thoughts about online intellectual property,and I am honored to be your Representative in Congress. As you may know, H.R. 3261 the Stop Online Piracy Act was recently introduced by Rep. Lamar Smith, where it was referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. Companion legislation in the Senate, S. 968, the Preventing Real Online Threats to Economic Creativity and Theft of Intellectual Property Act of 2011 (PROTECT-IP) was introduced by Senator Patrick Leahy and is pending on the Senate Legislative Calendar under General Orders. This legislation would give the federal government expanded authority to pursue websites which provide pirated or counterfeit content. This new legislation would be a substantial change from the current method of "notice and take down," which is currently used to enforce copyright infringement issues. For this reason, concerns have been raised about excessive government regulation of internet speech, especially for user uploaded websites such as YouTube and Facebook. These are legitimate concerns, and I look forward to working with my colleagues on the House Committee on the Judiciary to ensure that the needs of copyright protection are balanced with the First Amendment Rights of Americans. Although this legislation is still pending in the House Committee on the Judiciary, you can rest assured that I will keep your concerns in mind should this legislation arrive on the House floor. Thank you again for your concern about this important issue, and please do not hesitate to let me know if I may be of additional assistance in the future. Sincerely, Chuck Fleischmann Member of Congress -----------------------END COPY-PASTA----------------------------- ..more..
