My (private) laptop is broken. It appears that laptops do not function very
well after a certain amount of beer has been poured over the
keyboard. Screwing open the laptop, just as you do when adding memory,
and letting it dry for a night is my last hope before II send it for repair.

Today, I experimented a bit with another open source content management
system (Magnolia). Magnolia is base don J2EE so that would give
me a bit more control than Mambo perhaps because I know J2EE but not
PHP on which Mambo is based.

Modem problems/all services unreachable |
|
|
|
Written by Erik Brakkee

Because I downgraded my ADSL subscription from comfort to standard, I had to
reconfigure the modem. What I did not realize was that this
reconfiguration somehow erased all the port-address translations in the
modem. As a result of this problem, all services on the site were
unreachable from Friday evening 4th March to Sunday evening 6th March.
The server now regularly reconfigures the modem with the precise PAT settings so that this problem cannot occur anymore.

Improved backups |
|
|

Written by Erik Brakkee

Just ordered another hard disk sled in addition to the two I already
have so that I can use a total of three disks to store my data on and
easily swap disks while still using mirrorring onthe server. Basic
idea is to store the third disk in another (geographic) location and to
exchange one of the disks every now and then. This way, I allways have
a (fairly) recent backup of all my data.
Also scheduled regular verification of the RAID array using cron. The
highpoint RAID scheduling functions are not working it appears.
