Plot summary In the Earth of the far distant future, humans have died out and have been replaced, at least in the Americas, by a race descended from bears . Known to themselves as Gurrow sapiens , they live peaceably in communal groupings, trading with each other and sharing communal property, monetary units and duties. Their science has advanced almost to that of pre atomic age humans. Little is known of other lands on the planet. Raph, a Gurrow archaeologist , learns of the arrival on the continent s eastern seaboard of an unknown race, apparently descended from chimpanzees , who resemble Primate Primeval , the extinct race whose existence he has been trying to prove. Their science is more advanced and they are more war like. It is suspected that the arrivals may try to invade and colonise the lands occupied by Gurrows.

In software engineering , a connection pool is a cache of database connection s maintained so that the connections can be reused when future requests to the database are required. Connection pools are used ... connection for each user, especially requests made to a dynamic database driven website application, is costly and wastes resources. In connection pooling, after a connection is created, it is placed in the pool and it is used over again so that a new connection does not have to be established. If all the connections are being used, a new connection is made and is added to the pool. Connection pooling also cuts down on the amount of time a user must wait to establish a connection to the database. Applications Connection pooling being normally used in web based and enterprise application s is usually handled by an application server . Any dynamic web page can be coded to open a connection and close it normally but behind the scenes when a new connection is requested, one is returned from the connection pool maintained by the application server. Similarly, when a connection is closed it is actually returned to the connection pool. Connection pooling is not limited to using application servers.

Unreferenced date July 2007 A reverse connection is usually used to bypass Firewall computing firewall restrictions on open port s. A firewall usually blocks open ports, but does not block outgoing Internet traffic traffic . In a normal forward connection, a Client computing client connects to a Server computing server through the server s open port , but in the case of a reverse connection, the client opens the port that the server connects to. The most common way a reverse connection is used is to bypass Firewall computing firewall and Router security restrictions. For example, a Trojan horse running on a computer behind a firewall that blocks incoming connections can easily open an outbound connection to a remote host on the Internet. Once the connection is established, the remote host can send commands to the Trojan horse. Trojan horses Remote Administration Tool s that use a reverse connection usually send SYN TCP packets to the attacker s IP address . The attacker listens for these SYN packets and accepts the desired connections. If a computer is sending SYN packets or is connected to an attacker s PC, the connections can be discovered by using the netstat command or a common port listener like Active Ports . If the Internet connection is closed down and an application still tries to connect to remote hosts it may be infected with malware. Keylogger s and other malicious programs are harder to detect once installed, because they connect only once per session. Note that SYN packets by themselves are not necessarily a cause for alarm, as they are a standard part of all TCP connections. There are legitimate uses for using reverse connections, for example to allow hosts behind a NAT firewall to be administered remotely. These hosts do not normally have public IP addresses, and so must either have ports forwarded at the firewall, or open reverse connections to a central ...
