simple retransmissions of packets could cause it to crash.
And a simple divide by 0 caused an entire network to fail.
C2 on a network requires it to work properly... and it didn't.
Which was why it required the network to be disconnected for any C2 level
operation.
That was the MS lie.
I tried to get the NSA manual for NT - couldn't be done (and I was a contractor
to the Navy at the time). Did it exist? yes, sort of. but as far as I know it
was never released.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I usually reserve the word "lies" for intentional untruths.
When you ignore several people who have personal experience
with the truth [before I replied], then I would call that a
lie.
The Internet is TCP/IP. Windows was not, and to some extent,
is still not today. When they added TCP/IP, it was bolted
on, not integrated into the OS.
Wikipedia states:
"Consequently, even today, Microsoft file and printer
sharing over Ethernet continues to be called NetBEUI, with
the name NetBIOS commonly used only in reference to file and
printer sharing over TCP/IP. In truth, the former is the
NetBIOS Frames protocol (NBF), and the latter is NetBIOS
over TCP/IP (NBT)."
Stick to the facts, not your opinions. And bring some
references to back them up. It's OK to be wrong, especially
if you can admit it. But trolling for Microsoft isn't going
to get you anywhere in a forum where the goal is to uncover
the facts.
The problem with misrepresenting the facts here is that
there are a number of people here who actually designed and
implemented basic computer technology. I never fail to get a
thrill reading some of the reports of history that appear
here. I am just a hack. I didn't design anything, although I
wanted to. I just had the privilege of being there to help
implement new technology in a production environment.
