It's nice to be important - but it is more important to be nice!

Working with Linux, working with life...

Last few days I spent studying Debian Linux in details. I was working with some apps in console, like nmap, ssh... It's really great what nmap can do! It's a good way how to detect open ports (TCP/IP) of your own PC and how to protect your beloved machine... But nmap is like a knife: you can cut a piece of bread or kill a person (with the same tool). So, with nmap you can easily scan other PCs in the same network or all over the net... and there are a lot of things to be done. Good and/or bad.
Same is in life: we can use our thoughts, words and actions generally in two ways (good and/or bad), according to one's own ethic, life experiences... So, on this point a need arises: how to recognize what is ultimately good and what is bad? What is good for me is maybe bad for the others et vice versus... Many people are doing things with good intention, they are motivated to doing so..., but how do they really know, what is good for the others? So we make mistakes, we perform some weird deeds... in good faith. Is this really a "good faith" then?
I've recognized mentioned need as a proper spiritual guidance, a positive belief, a faith. I's not important (IMHO) which one (Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Atheism...); what really counts is the proper understanding of the core of a religion, faith, belief..., and to not misuse the basic knowledge.
Uhhh... what a mind job in English... :yikes:

I was in multimedia conference company, they use nmap to investigate whether the ports are open in the server in order us to send audio/video through that ports. I just know that there are nmap for win32, when my colleague show it to me.

Yes, there are nmap for almost all OSs (Windows, Mac OSX, Solaris, BeOS...), but in Debian, Fedora Core, and some other Linux... there is nmap by default.
But if you run Windows XP with SP2 on your machine, nmap will not work.
:yikes:
