Stuff

Watched both “The Sopranos” and “Six Feet Under” tonight thanks to Omar.. The tape reminded me how much I hate VHS, but fortunately I was able to watch the shows I missed last night, so I can’t complain too much. Both were good, but the “Six Feet Under” episode threw me for a loop… I mean, Brenda was acting so weird, Nate tripped out… weird… I have high hopes for this new season, and hopefully my cable installation will go well tomorrow so I can get back on track!

Picked up a Netgear 8 port switch this evening after work so we could get the file server up and running… The crappy Linksys FW/Router we are using is shitting the bed under load, so we are going to replace it with a the fileserver acting as a firewall… I haven’t set this stuff up under 2.4, and it kicked my ass last night.. Hopefully I can figure it out soon so I don’t have to run up/down 4 flights of stairs to reboot that crappy linksys anymore… :) If anyone knows any good resources for PPPoE/Masq/Firewalling under the 2.4 kernel (like an idiot’s guide) it would be appreciated..
