Sudo and admin users

Sudo and admin users 05/27/2004 09:27 AM

I recently downloaded a perl script called adduser, which was intended to mimic the classic BSD script of the same name. However, after it ran, I discovered I no longer had any working admin user accounts on the system! I c...

Sys Admin Appreciation Day


Sys Admin Appreciation Day 07/30/2004 07:13 PM

Although the day has past in Japan, it is Sys Admin Appreciation Day in the US. System administrators are some of the most important and often least appreciated members of the team and this is a great opportunity to thank them.

I'd like to thank Kuri who does the brunt of my network admin, Boris who does most of my blog admin and pixel pushing, and Adriaan and Jim who help out when they can. Special thanks to Justin, for installing my first Movable Type installation.

Thanks to Peter, Adina and Ed for helping me out on my SocialText stuff, to everyone on #joiito for keeping the bots running. Although they're not really Sys Admins, to Jeannie and Suw for being the "strange attractors" on #joiito who keep it going.

I'd like to thank the team who started Eccosys: Cyrus, Sen, Shimokawa, Daishi and Jona, and kudos also to Ushioda who pitched in at Neoteny.

Thanks also to Scott Burns who kept The Meta Network running for all those years.

Finally, I'd like to thank all of the people who run the dns and other vital components of the Internet and keep it working.

The world would not work without you all.

(I'm sorry if I missed anyone.)

How come I always get to do the admin

I just realized I talk to myself only when I have a flu. Or to be exact, I talk to things and objects: I had the most wonderful discussion with a piece of Ethernet cabling yesterday, while I was kneeling under the table, trying to find a socket for it. Of course, it did not reply, but it was good to have someone listening.

Network maintenance is 40% sweat, 40% luck, and 20% magic. Of the sweat part, 50% consists of going all-fours under tables and banging your elbows and head at sharp corners.

Remote Administrator v2.2


Remote Administrator v2.2 06/18/2004 06:45 AM
Remote Administrator (Radmin) is a remote control program which lets you control other workstations from another computer. You see the remote computer screen in a window on your desktop, or even full screen mode. Your mouse and keyboard are transferred to the remote computer, so you can work with the remote computer as if you were sitting in front of it. [Shareware $35.00 30 Days 1.77 MB]

Apple X11 Library Warning


Apple X11 Library Warning 03/13/2003 10:15 AM
While Apple's X11 works just fine with existing binaries, it has a bug in the install name of the libraries that can cause some software to build incorrectly, and will break forward-compatibility with future X11 releases. Ben Hines has created a script (available here) that you can use that will fix the install_name entries in Apple's X11 libraries, but it will not repair software you have already built against the broken libraries. Update 11 February 2003: This script is not needed with version 0.2 of Apple's X11.app which was released yesterday.

Still Dependent on Independence Day


Still Dependent on Independence Day 07/03/2004 03:13 PM
Did you ever have one of those moments where you just wanted to haul out the old 12-gauge and blow grapefruit-sized holes through enything even remotely digital in sight? It happens all too often. If I could have found the shells before I cooled off… The bottom line is that my digital dreams of lying around on the porch entertained by streaming audio coming over the Wi-Fi airwaves went kaflooey in spectacular manner. It all started innocently enough when I got my hands on some money. I’d been planning this part of The Grand Upgrade for some time. I’d just go out and buy a Linksys broadband wireless router and a matching ‘.g’ card for my antiquated IBM Thinkpad and I’d be flying high. Right. First up was to get the router in place and running the part of the network that is to remain wired. That only took a 20 minute call to their tech support. Their people are rather obviously of Indian descent, but are capable people with a good deal of patience. I did my best to understand and together, we finally got the thing working. It wasn’t hard, but what I still fail to get is why neither the Quick Start manual nor the main manual had this set of instructions in them. Being quick on the trigger, I took notes on the provedure. I figured I’d better, since the sequence of steps took no logical sequence. Suddenly, it all clicked. I now had every system independently sucking down bytes from the Internet without the chance that taking one down would trash the others. Wonderful. Then I got stupid. Or optimistic, though the two are very close. I decided I’d try setting up the notebook card. Boom! Brick wall. File errors every time I went through the setup. Then I took a look in the Hardware Manager, since I had a good power light on the thing, just no ‘Link’ lights. More bad news- a yellow and black exclamation point. Further investigation revealed that “The device cannot be enabled because IRQ Steering is not enabled on this machine” or words to that effect. Worse yet, the message encouraged me to change the settings in the “machine BIOS” in order to enable IRQ Steering. Since the machine is old enough that it originally came with Windows 95, I leave it to you to guess how effective that would be. Oops, sorry, last BIOS update released by Big Blue was in 1998 and had been in place for quite some time. Another call to the good offshore folks showed me that without IRQ steering, there just wasn’t going to be any fun stuff like a Wi-Fi connection to the Internet. End of story. So, the card was reluctantly returned to the retail wonderland it came from and I gave up (for now) on my digital dream. Some day when I get the needed cash and there isn’t any domestic disaster lurking in the wings, I’ll do what I need to, which is to ditch the old clunker and buy a newer old clunker that can support my need for surfing. So ends the tale of failed Independence for Independence day.
