The second article focused on installing Nagios on Mac OS X. The third article focused on configuring Nagios. This fourth article will focus on improving the Nagios interface and […]

podcasts: I am a workaholic. I stop to take the dog out, eat, and watch Guiding Light. My grandmother listened to it on the radio. My mother watched it on the TV, and now, I can make the next jump in technology…CBS is now offering each episode as a podcast. iPod nano: Good work Apple. […]
If you ever use Mac OS X client as a file server, or any type of server where you want some users to have access to SSH and others not, you can easily make it happen by using our old friend NetInfo Manager Applications > Utilities > NetInfo Manager. You can, very quickly, make sure […]
Well. Now that I have Soalris 10 installed (failure on disk 2 and disk 3), I have been trying to learn the ins and outs of the system. I have been struggling with trying to get Java Desktop System 3 to start up. I can work in Common Desktop Environment without any technical problems, but […]
I had decided last month to get a Sun machine so I could check out Solaris 10 (and Solaris in general). Why Solaris? Why not! Sun has been a leader in creating rock solid, high performance hardware and software, and now they have released Solaris for free. Time to check it out. I downloaded the […]

Now that I am no longer doing any Linux/UNIX training, I thought it would be best to have a Linux machine running so I can stay on top of what I learned. After trying out Mandrake Linux (now Mandiva), considering Yellow Dog, etc, I decided to give Fedora FC3 a try. Why? Well, there is […]
Here I am…thinking (dreaming) about replacing my Apple G4 Cube with a sweet Sun Solaris set up, since all my web development work at home is done with text editors and gimp.app. It is definitely time to learn Solaris, but I do not want to put out the $$ for Sun hardware (and yet I […]
