And at the core of RUP is a small area where you have to use OO design talents.... if you don't have them, it's like having a methodology for running the 100m.'Step 1: write about running really fast. Step 2: Go and draw a plan of the racetrack. Step 3: go and buy really tight lycra shorts. Step 4: run really, really, really fast. Step 5: cross line first'I was never able to say this better.Some people keep dreaming that methodologies or other tools are going to be able to replace talent. That is not going to happen in the near future. Tools and methodologies CAN assist talent but CAN NOT replace it. If you believe otherwise, you might be on track to waste your money instead of investing it.
It's sort of easy, you reverse the address (say it was 1.2.3.4), and append the blacklist's address (say blacklist.example.net), and then do a dns lookup (of 4.3.2.1.blacklist.example.net). If the address is not found, chances are the blacklist hasn't heard of them, otherwise they're probably scum.The code is in Python, but any one should understand the idea.
