BUSY WEEKEND

I'm here at our computer shop, playing some network games and browsing around. Since we are only serving internet connection using dial-up so I need to set up a proxy server to make more browsing faster. Anyway, it looks ok, I had to install new games. Currently here is the list of our games,
a.Call of Duty
b.Medal of Honor
c.CS 1.5
d.CS Condition Zero
e.Warcraft- Frozen Throne
f.Battle Realms-WOTW
g.GTA-Vice City
h.NFS-Underground
i.C&C-Generals
j.NBA 2004
j.Laagnarok Online

I am planning to borrow or buy new games like Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell/Pandora's Box, Rise of Nations, Unreal 2004 etc. but don't have money right now. I haven't seen my ex-officemate to borrow new stuffs coz Im too busy at work.

Well, I am still adjusting on my work, I learned different things on running Macintosh Machines since some of our servers are running Mac and on our LAN , mostly we used IMac and Ibook. But sometimes I feel shitz on some Mac disadvantages. Well I learned to manually uninstall applications in Mac that will do some conflicts on other new programs.
I thought that simply dragging the applications folder or alias to the thrash will do the removing. Still, experience is the best teacher.
Damn, I was busy last week, coz I need to prepare some event servers that will be used on our 4 event servers, we had to setup like mini-hosting which will be running dns, web, php and postgresql applications using private addresses. It will be used for registration system on the event in which the prospect clients will have a perception that it is online.
I had no time to read some new things coz sometimes I am really tired to research and read some books. Sometimes Im not on the mood doing things that will enhance my technical skills, like now, I just spend the whole day playing condition zero,,hehehe..

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME

It's been a long time since I did some blogging and chatting with some old friends, Im too busy with my work,lots of system administration to do and researching as well,
With god's help,friends and google , I learned setting up and configuring Bind DNS, but still need some researching for some security issues about bind like chrooting, .
I also learned htdig (htdig.org) and learned other geeky stuffs too, learned to configure different services and take iptables packet filtering seriously. But sometimes Im really packed with many things to do, and had no time to do other things.
Well, regarding our computer shop, it's doing ok but customers are asking for internet connection which we don't have right now coz DSL is not available to our place and our phone line is still under process.
I'll try to blog as often as I can,but now Im too sleepy and need to prepare things tomorrow for another busy day,
