EDSI , or Enterprise Data Systems Incorporated, was a computer Bulletin Board System BBS located in Appleton, Wisconsin . This system was running on an IBM PS 2 Model 55SX system with SCO Xenix 2.3.2. The system used the STARBASE II BBS Software and provided many local discussion rooms as well as full access to USENET and E Mail via a dialup UUCP connection. This was Fox Valley Wisconsin s first UNIX based BBS and provided many users with early Internet access. Besides dialup access, the System Administrator, Chuck Tomasi, often held meetings at his house where the system was located. The meetings featured a basement full of various Computer terminals where everyone could sit down at a terminal and login to the BBS. Once the dawn of the Internet arrived, and low cost dial up Internet access was available to everyone, people lost interest in connecting to these dialup BBS systems. Now, replaced by the World Wide Web , the BBS era remains a fond memory for many. Category Bulletin board systems ... more details

Unreferenced date December 2009 LAN Manager was a Network operating system Network Operating System NOS available from multiple vendors and developed by Microsoft in cooperation with 3Com Corporation . It was designed to succeed 3Com s 3 Share network server software which ran atop a heavily modified version of MS DOS . Development history LAN Manager was based on the OS 2 operating system co developed by IBM and Microsoft. It originally used the Server Message Block protocol atop either the NetBIOS Frames protocol NBF or a specialized version of the Xerox Network Systems XNS protocol. These legacy protocols had been inherited from previous products such as MS NET for MS DOS , Xenix NET for Xenix MS Xenix , and the afore mentioned 3 Share. A version of LAN Manager for Unix based systems called LAN Manager X was also available. In 1990, Microsoft announced LAN Manager 2.0 with a host of improvements, including support for TCP IP as a transport protocol. The last version LAN Manager, 2.2, which included an MS OS 2 1.31 base operating system, remained Microsoft s strategic server system until the release of Windows NT 3.1 Windows NT Advanced Server in 1993. Many vendors shipped licensed versions, including 3Com Corporation 3 Open HP LAN Manager X IBM LAN Server Tapestry Torus Security vulnerability main LM hash LAN Manager authentication uses a particularly weak method of Cryptographic hash function hashing a user s password known as the LM hash algorithm. This makes the authentication crackable in a matter of seconds using rainbow table s or in few hours using Brute force attack brute force . Its use in Windows NT was replaced by NTLM , which is still vulnerable to rainbow tables, but less vulnerable to brute force attacks. Both protocols have subsequently been deprecated in favor of Kerberos protocol Kerberos , but remain in use for backward compatibility and inter operability.

refimprove date September 2007 The Intel iPSC 2 is a parallel processor computer produced in 1987. It was the successor of the Intel iPSC and was superseded by the Intel iPSC 860 . It was available in several configurations, the base setup being one cabinet with 16 Intel 80386 processors, each with a Intel 80387 80387 coprocessor on the same module. ref http www.cs.kuleuven.be museum multiproc rubik E.html Computermuseum Intel iPSC 2 ref This configuration has no onboard storage, and the operating system and user programs were loaded from a frontend PC. This PC was typically an Intel 301 with a special interface card. The system allows for expansion up to 128 nodes, each with processor and coprocessor. Also, the base modules could be upgraded to the SX Scalar eXtension version by adding another chip. Another configuration allowed for each processor module to be paired with a VX Vector eXtension module. This has the downside that the number of available interface card slots is halved. Having multiple cabinets as part of the same iPSC 2 system is necessary to run the maximum number of nodes and allow them to connect to VX modules. The iPSC 2 is a member of the hypercube class of parallel computers, which references the logical connection between the processors internally. For that reason, it can only be configured with 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128 nodes. These correspond to the corners of hypercubes of increasing dimension. The nodes of iPSC 2 run the proprietary NX 2 operating system, while the host machine ran System V or Xenix . ref http portal.acm.org citation.cfm?id 62341 The NX 2 operating system Proceedings of the third conference on Hypercube concurrent computers and applications 1988 ref References reflist Category Supercomputers Category Massively parallel computers Category Intel products Ipsc 2 it Intel iPSC 2 ru Intel iPSC 2 ... more details

B32 Business Basic was a competitor to Data General Business Basic written by Murray Haszard in 1986. It ran on the Data General Eclipse MV line of computers initially, and was ported to Unix in 1989 and to DOS in 1991. B32 Software was the company that developed and supported B32 Business Basic, with the original site in Auckland, New Zealand supplemented by a sales and support centre in Blue Ash, Ohio . The B32 interpreter was highly compatible with Data General Business Basic DGBB , but it also enhanced and extended that language in many ways. Like DGBB, B32 could access Data General s INFOS II database and it could use DGBB s lock server or its own improved version. B32 was over twice as fast for number crunching, string manipulation, and disk I O. Many of the internal restrictions of DGBB were removed. B32 allowed 32,767 line numbers 65,535 in later versions , compared with DGBB s 9,999. B32 allowed more memory for programs, more simultaneous locks, and more files to be open at once. Language enhancements included a high speed internal sort routine, do while blocks, and the ability to step backwards through an indexed file . Debugging facilities were also significantly improved over DGBB. B32 allowed programs to run with full cursor positioning and attribute support on non Data General terminals, even programs which had Data General control sequences hard coded into them. B32 carried out all arithmetic at quad precision , i.e. 64 bit , and emulated the triple precision and double precision versions of DGBB at runtime. This avoided the subtle incompatibilities between the two versions of DGBB. On Unix and DOS, B32 emulated all commonly used system calls of Data General s AOS VS and RDOS operating systems, including implementing its own symbolic links on Santa Cruz Operation SCO Xenix and DOS. In 1991, a features war between B32 and one of its competitors, Transoft s Universal Business Basic, saw major improvements to the B32 language. B32 added a Bluebird Busine ... more details
