- Kamael, on 10/11/2007, -4/+42I'm starting to see a pattern here on digg on stories about cats with special abilities... cats that take the bus, cats that scare bears, cats that survive trips from China to NC...
I, for one, welcome our new cat overlords... - rockrapdude, on 10/11/2007, -1/+37Container cat is not pleased.
- edzilla, on 10/11/2007, -0/+28It always amazes me how people who don't read the articles always ask questions that are answered either in the summary, or in the beginning of the article...
- jacko7, on 10/11/2007, -3/+18Looks like Bus ridin' cat is taking his skills to new heights!
http://digg.com/offbeat_news/Bus_Ridin_Mystery_Cat - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+16Somethings fishy about this story. Cats can go hepatic after no water in as little as 24 hours.
It must have found some sort of water source or food supply. - McTendo, on 10/11/2007, -0/+11@ h0v3rb1k3s

- davidsmero, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8My friend works for the Port Authority and he tells me all the stories that involved weird things coming overseas. Mainly animals like snakes. Cats and Dogs are no surprise though, there are usually plenty of rats and mice.

- asaturn, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7I didn't have my glasses on and I thought the title said "Cat Stevens' 35 day trip from China to N.C. in Crate"
- ddigby, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Wow. Now I see the light. Michelle Misavage's years of veterinary training are WRONG. I bow to your superior anecdotal evidence.
- WiredLain, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4You got that right. Every one thinks cats are dumber than dogs, but is this really true? Look at all the effort an average dog has to go through to endear itself to its master. Playing fetch, constant waging of the tail, etc. Now look at your average cat. The occasional rub against your legs, a little puring and that pretty much it.
Cats really do rule!! - siszam, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4omaryak: "Hopefully it doesn't have SARS or bird flu – and hopefully someone checks"

http://www.catass.com/toonces/ - hetzjagd, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3The cat comes from China and the best they can do for a name for it is China? How about Chairman Meow?
- Iolite, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3I believe Toonces was an old SNL skit.
- tektalk, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Awwww... best of luck little buddy.
- mikeon, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5They've been our overlords for a while now. It's just that they are so secretive and only now has hints of their special abilities have come to light.
I bet if you ask any cat owners, you'll find them mind controlled by the cats already. - razrielle, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3What the blue *****?
- asaturn, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4it would be funny because Cat Stevens is currently on the terrorist watch list and can't enter the USA... so for him to get in via a crate would be pretty ingenious... and outrageous.

- rayxtime, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I remember a similar story from about 8 years ago in which a cat trapped in a crate with auto parts was able to survive by licking the oil off an engine. That may be why this more recent cat chewed its way into the box of motorcycle parts. However, I've failed to find the exact source. Has anyone else heard of this previous story?
- GatorKram, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I wonder why they didn't have a picture in the story.

"fc5" mount does not recognize "smbfs" file system?
In the past I have been successful at using mount to add my windows shares to my Linux directory structure with the following systax:
mount -t smbfs -o username=myusername,password=mypassword,ip=192.168.2.100,rw //windowsbox/share /linuxmount
As of FC5 I am getting the following error from the bash shell:
"mount: unknown filesystem type 'smbfs'"
Can anyone tell me what I am missing?

The smbfs is no longer used, try using cifs instead.

security issue
hey thanks for someone helping with this. this has been bugging me all week.
but my question is what kind of security risks are there?
i noticed the permissions just say "drwxrwxrwx" for all.
is there anyway to change it or what the best way to mount a windows ntfs drive from another computer.
any help is appreciated.
thank you

Ok, smbfs going out, cifs to replace but..
Thanks for the good info, smbfs -> cifs
That also fixed my new FC5 machine
but..
I have script files built up to
mount -t smbfs ---and now I must change to
mount -t cifs ----but only on FC-5/2.6.15 and greater.
These scripts are common across several FC-n,RH9,etc.
I can manipulate the BASH script to hinge on FC5 but
should the real check be for greater than 2.6.15?
Something like
MOUNTWITH=smbfs
[ -z "`uname -r | grep "^2.6.15"`" ] && MOUNTWITH=cifs
mount -t ${MOUNTWITH} yada yada yada
I know the grep need to be more robust, I will harden later.
But with this basic scheme work or am I missing something?

security issue
hey thanks for someone helping with this. this has been bugging me all week.
but my question is what kind of security risks are there?
i noticed the permissions just say "drwxrwxrwx" for all.
is there anyway to change it or what the best way to mount a windows ntfs drive from another computer.
any help is appreciated.
thank you

Ok, smbfs going out, cifs to replace but..
Thanks for the good info, smbfs -> cifs
That also fixed my new FC5 machine
but..
I have script files built up to
mount -t smbfs ---and now I must change to
mount -t cifs ----but only on FC-5/2.6.15 and greater.
These scripts are common across several FC-n,RH9,etc.
I can manipulate the BASH script to hinge on FC5 but
should the real check be for greater than 2.6.15?
Something like
MOUNTWITH=smbfs
[ -z "`uname -r | grep "^2.6.15"`" ] && MOUNTWITH=cifs
mount -t ${MOUNTWITH} yada yada yada
I know the grep need to be more robust, I will harden later.
But with this basic scheme work or am I missing something?

"fc5" mount does not recognize "smbfs" file system?
In the past I have been successful at using mount to add my windows shares to my Linux directory structure with the following systax:
mount -t smbfs -o username=myusername,password=mypassword,ip=192.168.2.100,rw //windowsbox/share /linuxmount
As of FC5 I am getting the following error from the bash shell:
"mount: unknown filesystem type 'smbfs'"
Can anyone tell me what I am missing?

The smbfs is no longer used, try using cifs instead.
