• www.google.com over IPv6

    by  • 30th March 2009

    As some of the people know Google has an IPv6 only site but it’s kinda limited. They also claim that their www.google.com can be supported over IPv6 , it’s just that they have a scheme for ISPs to enroll to get AAAA records released to their DNS servers. Now when you are using your...

    It’s like a drug

    by  • 23rd March 2009

    What, it’s like a week since I had my first flying lesson and I am feeling really strong that I want to go back in the air! I so curse that I have to go abroad for a week or two before I can take another lessons. It’s bloody addictive, love it! I’m counting...

    Seagate Failure

    by  • 21st March 2009

    It looks like S.M.A.R.T has told me that drive in my server is failing. Actually I’ve noticed that when my NFS server just stopped sharing data from it. Still, it was a bad sign, quick look at logs and clear failure messages. Cool. Short trip to a highstreet shop – Maplin and I’ve grabbed...

    From Zero to 0.5h

    by  • 16th March 2009

    As mentioned in a previous post, I had a trial flying lesson booked for last Sunday. And it all went through, weather was really nice. It was kinda crazy fast pace ( faster than what I would expect ). I met my Flight Instructor and strait away he started telling me about the basics...

    IPv6 uptake on BT

    by  • 16th March 2009

    I’m an IPv6 user. I also, from time to time, use BitTorrent. I was really surprised when I was downloading something recently. Surprise came from the number of IPv6 peers which I was connected to. About 10 of them IIRC. It’s great to see that I’m not the only one who has IPv6 enabled...

    Work wise : Companies which I work for recently decided to move into single location ( down from 2 ) , both sites have independent systems. The move date is set so early in time that there will be no time to integrate them at the time. I am recruiting a Senior IT Tech/Admin...

    LateX – not MS Word is for writing

    by  • 17th February 2009

    It’s a great feeling when people use right tools for the job, especially that it is you who recommended and patiently convinced that they should not eat crap like all the flies do ( just because there is more of them, following the crowd ). So, why am I writing that ?

    Munin Plugin for Cherokee monitoring update

    by  • 13th February 2009

    I’ve managed to find some time to get my Cherokee server updated to 0.98.1. BTW, it took a while to have new version appear in the Gentoo portage. Thanks to Alvaro, this update contains improved system_info module, which is now dirt easy to use in Ruby and some other scripting. Using that opportunity I...
