2001-06-24 21:28 I set up a home network with 2 linux computers and 1 Windows computer. I had the Falcon (my fastest computer …running Linux) set to dialup and automatically masqurade the internet connections for the other two computers (no proxy server, no nothing, just plug them in and they work). Then I had my SCSI Linux server with file sharing through Samba. And the Windwos computer in the Living room. It was great. …this all lasted until mom and dad decided they didn’t want a 100ft cable running from my room to the living room. …but I still have the 2 linux computers networked.

After a few minutes and 4 reboots (Windows is dumb that way) Jason and I set up a network! 

We played Quake, transfered our files, setup a proxy server in 30 seconds (I forgot to turn it on the first time), and used VNC to pester each other.

errrrr…compuserve has been cutting me off every 10 minutes…this makes work very slow and unproductive.

We had fun throwing rocks at Jon Clede’s iMac during a study break. The screen looks really cool when its shattered!

Isaac went down again…this time only after three weeks. I’ve found the problem and I’m working on a way to prevent it from happening…but its not easy. If I watch the processes closely I can get up to a 15 second warning to kill the task before it sends the httpd daemon into an infinite unbreakable loop.

It is incredibly hard to program when loud satanic music is being played.

Just installed Red Hat 7.1. Has some nice things..just need to get it to print. …and there’s nothing like a good Del Taco run. a Macho Combo burrito really hits the spot after programming all day.

You know there are some dumb Mac users when they get OSX and ask the question “how do I become root?”
