Upgrade to WordPress
Upgraded WordPress today. Had some issues but all sorted now. Very happy with CentOS, easy to use and maintain. Just need some more RAM for the server now!
New Zealand
Went to NZ (South Island) over the 3-day long weekend – very beautiful. Highlight had to be the hot thermal pools at Hanmer Springs. 3 days wasn’t really long enough, but it was nice to get away for a break.
Into Production
Well apart from documentation the servers are completed. Samba now working as a PDC with roaming profiles for my wife’s XP laptop, mail server finished and working with all the Horde issues now resolved. Running on a new motherboard, so seeing more of the 4GB RAM that’s in it, and able to connect 6 SATA … [Read more…]
Mail Server Completed
The mail server is finished, although I suspect I’ll be tweaking it for a while yet. Final setup is postfix / postgrey / amavisd-new / spamassassin / clamav / cyrus / horde, all using OpenLDAP authentication over TLS with saslauthd for Cyrus and Postfix.I had been using procmail in between postfix and cyrus, but that … [Read more…]
Mail Server
I know I haven’t posted the Samba details yet, but I have been busy building the mail server. It’s running postfix, postgrey, amavisd-new, clamav, spamassassin, procmail, cyrus, and horde webmail. Getting there, Horde is working, but still a lot of detail to sort out.
OpenLDAP and Samba on CentOS 5.2

Added some users, set passwords, … [Read more…]
WordPress, WPG2, Gallery2 with SSL on the same Server
Fun running everything on the same server under SSL – Wordpress, WPG2, Gallery2.
New Server Slowly Going Live…
Well, most of our web services are now live on the new server – blog, gallery and website. Webmail still to come though. Configuring it all for SSL has been a fun exercise! I have managed to get WPG2 working with Gallery2, WordPress and SSL so I will post up a howto soon.
New Linux Server
I have been busy building a new server for home… our current ClarkConnect server runs out of support in a few months, and it’s so heavily changed from the standard install that I am unlikely to want to try and upgrade it. So it’s been back on the Linux distro trail again. I’m going down … [Read more…]
George Gray
The medals are from someone completely unrelated to me, but show closeup of what I believe is the medal on the chest of the man in the last photo – George Gray. George Gray was my grandfather’s uncle. The medal is an Army Long Service and Good Conduct medal, and appears to have King Edward … [Read more…]
