Server was down but is now up again

Ramon Casha — 2012-04-30T16:37:19

For some reason the server went down but I eventually managed to log in
remotely and restart apache. Should be ok now but keep an eye open. There
was a whole bunch of apache processes.

Wordpress

Ramon Casha — 2012-03-27T04:46:06

Hi peeples,

First, I don't think there's a problem converting to wordpress but I have
no idea how easy/difficult it is to create a spellcheck module for
wordpress. I'll have to do some checking. At most I'll make an independent
module in PHP or something and just embed it in a wordpress page.

I did contact the MCA guys who put me in touch with some people and I
subsequently forwarded those to Raphael so he can establish a contact with
them. I'm not sure if Raphael had done this. There seemed to be interest
from their side.

GIMP Tuition

Keith Vassallo — 2012-02-21T19:04:25

Hi Penguins!

I'm currently working part-time for the Institute of Computer Education (icemalta.com) and they've had a request from the government for an 18hour course on using The GIMP. 

The school needs a teacher to prepare a brief syllabus and deliver the course. The course has to be delivered during office hours - but believe me the pay is worth it. 

Is anyone interested? As you can imagine, finding a GIMP teacher here in Malta is not so easy.

E-mail me if you're up for it!

K

VPN Question

Keith Vassallo — 2012-02-18T12:37:34

Hey Guys,

Ok so this is not entirely Linux related, but I guess there'd be quite a few network pros here.

So my current situation is this:

I have an Apple Timecapsule (it's a router and wireless hard drive). Ok I know I've put some people off just by saying that, but it's a wireless hard drive, it's fast, and by backup's based on it.

Anyway, this Timecapsule doesn't handle VPN. So I was thinking of getting a Cisco small business router in front of the timecapsule (between it and my modem). 

I am able to get one of these (Cisco RVS4000) http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps9928/index.html at a good price. Would this do the job?

Also, would it be possible to specify on a domain/ip basis what goes through the VPN and what doesn't? I need to connect to certain hosts via the VPN, but the rest should just connect normally. Is this possible in the Cisco config?

Thanks,

K
