Linux tip for the day.. Confident network changes.
2007-10-25 00:00:00
Ever been scared to make networking changes on a remote host? Worried you'd have to call support and be charged out the rear because of a typo in your networking configuration? In this Linux tip of the day, I'll show you how you can make network changes to remote hosts with confidence! Being that my server farm here at work is RedHat based, this will apply to that distribution. However, you can change around some of the paths and commands to make it relevent to your distro.

Tagging interface complete!
2007-10-25 00:00:00
After about 5 hours of work, I've finished the rudimentary part of my tagging interface. Now I will add a menu list of all the tags, and make the text larger based on the count of post listed per tag. I should be able to finish that tomorrow. Once the above is complete, I'll work on a commenting system and then focus on the admin interface (which is currently a little bleh). ...Read More..

Facebook "noise"
2007-10-25 00:00:00
So, I've noticed an unnerving trend on my facebook account; a chaotic flurry of applications & notification.. On a daily basis I login to facebook only to find, on average, 10 notifications that are all from applications. No personal touch, only canned messages. It's almost spam like, except for the fact that I solicited these messages :(.. It's almost overwhelming how many times my warewolf gets attacked, or my vampire get's chumped! Not to mention the requests f...Read More..

Just another manic Monday..
2007-10-25 00:00:00
I woke up late, again, checked my son for a rash, poured a cup of coffee and drank a bottle of water. After my relaxation time was over I went to cleaning myself up for work. By this time I realized it was 7:45 and now I was _really_ going to be late. Why was I so late this morning? Because the Indians lost. What does that have anything to do with it? Well...I tried to forget the loss by consuming over the recommended dosage of liquor and beer(in that order) :/ Fast forward...Read More..

Linux at Work: Day 3 & 4.
0000-00-00 00:00:00
Nothing really exciting to report on day 3. I'm pretty sure I got this licked. I did discover that our Cisco VPN tunnel for clients was borked with the last maintenance on the network, so I lost my backdoor to be able to work from home via Linux :(. Day 4 I found a reliable way to crash the Evolution "exchange backend". I get mails from Mailman mailing lists as they come in, rather than a daily digest. Clicking on one with the preview pane on will break the "exchange backend" causing me to have to restart the client. This happens after browsing around in "non-list" mails. Also on day 4 I found myself needing a proprietary piece of client software to access a file server that I manage. I was slightly discouraged until I realized it was written in Java. I then discovered that they don't provide the source, but they do provide the jar files, and an RPM. I then used alien to convert the rpm to a deb, and I was well on my way to managing that file server. I'm loving this!
