      While that is true for AD domains, I think you can just use:

      certutil -addstore -f root authroot.stl

      Check out the first link I gave you.

        True, but if I can see it then I’m positive that most script kiddies have already seen it, and the ‘hack’ is so simple it is international in nature.

            Just to encourage Bob in his beachcombing, this is what a Dutch lady found. Link

              If Keith was upset with Nicola Sturgeon, he is going to be spitting nails when he reads that Tusk has said that they would welcome Scotland back into the EU.

              It looks ever more likely that Brexit will result in the UK becoming the disunited Kingdom of England.

                Genome research indicates that a bat coronavirus recombined with an unidentified snake virus, and the product virus was then probably in the snake population for some little while. Apparently the act of viral recombination assisted its later transfer to humans.

                The latest genome research shows that probably only one person originated this transfer from Snake to human, and that all subsequent infections have been human-human with the majority initially being other people in the Wuhan wet market. This research indicates that the first infection happened some time towards the end of November 2019 with the first signs of a novel outbreak being detected in late December.

                There are still a lot of ‘probablys’ at the moment, and it is fair to say that other than a high probability that a bat virus is at the start of the event chain,  the definitive origins of the novel coronavirus have not yet been established.

                  John, I’m not sure your ‘Momentum’ comment is correct. In the period between the General Election and the *20 January, the membership of the Labour Party increased by more than 20%, the vast majority of whom are thought to be anti-Corbyn. The leadership rank and file ballot opens on Feb 21st so we will know better after that date whether or not a Keir Starmer can eliminate the rampant left wing of Long-Bailey. As Starmer is the one that the Conservatives are sniping against, he is obviously the best choice.

                  *you had to be accepted as a member before this date in order to be able to vote.

                    Mate of mine lost his forefinger to a congar. We were line fishing in the estuary and caught a huge congar. He started out ok by chopping off its head with a machete, but then the idiot immediately tried to retrieve his hook – bye bye finger. Still it got him out of the National Service call-up so he reckoned it wasn’t that bad a deal.

                      The Medical experts do not seem to have read the research that shows that aerosoled flu-like viruses can last for up to 16 hours on surfaces. link

                      To be fair, I think the experts are fully aware of this, as this is why hospitals now spend so much time cleaning surfaces.

                      This was and is an exercise in trying to gain public confidence and that there is no need to panic by boycotting York, Hull etc.

                        The medical advice was that provided there was no close contact, defined as within 2 meters for 15 minutes there was close to zero chance of transmission

                        So no recirculated heating or air con system within the coaches? Judging by the shirt sleeves, the drivers certainly had access to heating.

                        My experience is that any public transport system is a fine way of sharing out the bugs.

                          Well Boris has finally kept part of one of his promises and the Withdrawal Agreement has been enacted. However he now faces a future where all his promises (and lies) will be fully exposed and he has nowhere to hide and no one else to blame.

                          It will be interesting to see how Mendacious Boris balances the free trade needs of the industrialised North with its remnants of a car industry, against Cornish and Scots fish stocks and which groups get shafted in the negotiations.

                          Brexit is not over by a long way.

                            The organisational incompetence of our Government and Civil Service comes to the fore once again in full public view of the TV cameras.

                            First they show all the bio hazard precautions being taken to handle the Wuhan flight, then they showed that each coach would be attended by a medic in full biohazard gear, then they cut to each coach being driven away by shirt-sleeved drivers who did not even have surgical masks.

                            Then the piece cut to an outside view of the York hotel, saying that the apartment (only the apartment) had been sealed and would be industrially cleaned. No mention of what happens to the air con/heating system and the other rooms.

                            Reassured – yes I’m totally reassured. We are all DOOMED!

                            The devil is in the detail, and our Civil Service are useless at organisational detail.

                              The Beeb was my reference, but so far the Yorkshire Evening Post has not been able to dig out details of the hotel where the couple were staying. My guess would be that they are from a Chinese tour party visiting York.

                              It does not surprise me that the Hotel details have not been released as that would be the economic kiss of death to the hotel and surrounding area.

                                Keir Starmer is moderate enough for me. He is middle of the road New Labour but without the CIA taint.

                                  Now that it is in Yorkshire has anyone researched the value of different face masks e.g N100 versus N95 versus N88?

                                  Apparently surgical masks are not especially recommended as being both flimsy and difficult to adjust properly, but apparently they do cut down transmission and stop you inadvertently touching your face.

                                    Whatever turns you on.

                                    Personally I still see no value in moving from a ‘Rule Maker’ to a ‘Rule Taker’ so I’ll pass on your unique opportunity and join the Labour Party instead  At least that comes with the option of voting for a moderate leader.

                                      There was a piece on the TV news last night in which they interviewed a US company that was developing a vaccine (NIH and others are also doing this). They stated that they were moving very quickly to develop a vaccine and they were hopeful that human testing could start in the summer.

                                      Inovio praised the Chinese for releasing their work on the genome of the virus.

                                        Your weekly Flying Turkey Shoot, but this time concentrating on its dog-fighting and ground attack inability. ‘Inability’ as according to this Time report its gun cannot shoot straight, and like the plane its literally not all its cracked up to be.

                                        Pundits are trying to dismiss this saying it will not need a gun in a dogfight as it will use its missiles. That may well be true for third world opponents but not against any highly stealthed Russian and Chinese opponents.

                                          The Government are billeting the evacuees in former NHS staff accommodation in the north-west of England. Just about as far away from London as you can go without putting it in Scotland.

                                          Obviously BoJo’s policy of focussing on the North has been put into action!

                                            I hope the Asian habit of wearing face masks spreads to the UK. Currently if I need to go to London via commuter train then I can pretty much guarantee that within a week I’ll be suffering from one darned virus or another.🤒
