Day Fifty


Fifty days of fun.

  • Today I did an upgrade to the school's email system. It worked perfectly! We're now running the latest version of our mail server, and the webmail supports Firefox 3. I'm very pleased.
  • I rack mounted Aldi, the backup server in our big 42U rack. I installed network shutdown software on that and Elroy, so when there's a power cut, they'll both shut down properly.
  • Deleted all students' ~/Library folders to resolve the issues with 10.5 and network homes.
  • Installed a PC for a year assistant lady.
  • Made a pile of redundant equipment ready to move to storage.
  • Started migrating my docs and apps to my shiny new iMac
  • Switched all our kiddy computers to use the internet banning system - The Other Tech is adding all the machines in to the management lists.
  • Blocked the BBC iPlayer! Kids will no longer be able to say no to work in favour of last night's EastEnders. That'll teach them.
  • Installed a new server version of our Careers software for the careers lady.
  • Installed some ChemSketch software in Chemistry.

I'm on fire.
