Kung-Log and iTunes

When posting with Kung-Log you can click on an iTunes button to embed a now playing excerpt. I found out about Six Apart and Kung-Log and the iTunes postings thanks to Scott Hacker.

Movable Type from Mac

Found a solution to the problem where the Movable Type interface does not support Bold, Italic, URL buttons. Six Apart (the two people who make MovableType) recommend using Kung-Log, which I’m using as I type on an iBook.

In God We Trust on Flag

Seeing the new flag, I decided to write this to the govenor:

Sonny,

The #1 thing I like about the proposed flag is adding “In God We Trust.” 99.99% of Georgians should be unified under that phrase– white, black, christian, muslim, male, or female. We have freedom *OF* religion in America (and yes freedom from religion.)

As for the 1956 flag, I was born in 1961 and grew up thinking our flag looked better than most state flags, sharing the red, white, and blue and stars and bars of the American flag.

The ’56 flag is a good looking flag, but I am not proud of the circumstances under which it was installed. Those who want to honor the Confederacy are free to fly the Confederate Flag, for example in Confederate cemetaries.

Thanks for keeping your campaign promise to let the people decide. I did not like the way Barnes forced a decision without the input of all Georgians.

IN GOD WE TRUST!

YodaNet is set to only allow specific wireless cards to access it. If I don’t remember that (as when I get a new laptop with a built in wireless card) I will spend a couple of hours trying to get the PC to join YodaNet. (Again.)

Fixing Permissions

The problem was I had only issued the first line below (based on the instructions) and not the second one (not in the instructions.) MovableType could not build the files in /blog_archive without it.

Migrating Merlin to R5

These are the steps we will work on to migrate everyone. In a nutshell

1) NetCentriX mail users move over first (and upgrade clients to R5)

2) NetCentriX applications second,

3) ITS last.

. New Netfinity computer name: Merlin

. Notes server id: Merlin/NetCentriX (simplification in computer / server naming convention)

* Have merlin.netcentrix.net added to DNS. (George)

. Move NCX mail users, leaving design as 4.6, and replicating with Excalibur.

. Upgrade NCX clients to R5 (your computers)

. Upgrde mail file designs to R5.

. Move all other directories and .nsfs.

. Make MX record netcentrix.net goes to merlin’s i.p.

. Mail comes into Excalibur waiting for MX record to take.

. Users replicate w/ Merlin and mail goes out of Merlin.

. When MX record switches, stop mail replication.

. Set up replication between Excalibur and Merlin for non-mail applications

. Set up ITS virtual server on Merlin.

. Submit DNS change for ITS.

. ITS replicates w/ Merlin until DNS change fully propogates.

. Redirect ITS’s own Notes server to replicate with Merlin.

. Excalibur becomes Development when verified no client activity. Renamed Frodo in the Hobbit Domain 🙂
