Notice that some of the web servers utilize insecure, unreliable Microsoft software. Before you enter any sensitive
information you may want
to consider a check with Netcraft (just enter the host name, e.g. www.xxx.net). Sites
which use the extension .asp, .aspx, .cfm, and .dll in a URL (link)
deserve a closer inspection and those using .jsp may also be suspicious.
The quality (or
lack thereof) of MS software
is well documented at TRUSTWORTHYCOMPUTING (BTW that was a phrase used
in an MS propaganda campaign). These guidelines are also useful when you do shopping online or have to enter information on your
employer's web site, government web sites etc.. Now, if someone is embarrassed because they use this insecure, unreliable MS
software, well, so be it. Everybody knows about the rotten MS promises. There is no excuse for putting other people's data at
risk. Peace.
How to contact me
If you like to send
me some postal mail, a FAX, e-mail or if you want to call me, then please
use the following information.
No HTML e-mail, no MS-DoS virus Word, no PDF, no MIME encoded messages.
I will not try to read this junk. Plain ASCII text only!
E-mail via the Internet is unreliable.
The computer center is "protecting" my OpenVMS/Alpha system from MS-DoS/Pentium bugs - no comment.

The longest bar in the world
Just kidding... :-) Hey, I grow up a few 100 metres from
"The longest bar in the world"
in Düsseldorf (or "Duesseldorf" if you will - only a
Dussel writes
Dusseldorf).
I was born in Düsseldorf and later
moved very close to the famous Neandertal
(amazing to see how much effort some TV speakers put into pronouncing a 'th' where there is no 'th' -
in fact speaking German with the tongue between the teeth is considered to be vulgar;-).
Entertainment
After so much work you really deserve
some entertainment. Lots of moose, nice pictures of my banana plant with blossom
and fruits and more are waiting for you. Enjoy!
Files
I do have some files for download available via FAL and FTP for
physics,
OpenVMS and
NetBSD/OpenBSD.
Beside some interesting physics documents you will also find here my NetBSD related patches
for more than 175 applications,
some other interesting sources like my VMS SMTP server/client system
(was initially written for UCX 1.0) and, of course, wonderful pictures of my
moose (Elch==:-). Enter now!
A scandal
Unbelieveable, but true: even this web server offers
nudity. Just surf through my web
pages and you will find other pictures. Perhaps you are also
interested in physics.
