I fixed a few nagging problems in the last week.

1. freasha now automatically starts mysql when it boots so the link should function properly after one of rose's random power outages.

2. haruko now automatically restarts its networking subsystem every 4 hours to defend against insightbb's bad tendency to randomly disconnect.

3. haruko automatically contacts one of my machines each night to register its ip address. Once I finish the php/mysql thing I'm writing to automatically configure dns, I will extend this functionality to make it automatically set its ip address as well.

I wrote a script for generating self-signed ssl server keys:

---

#!/bin/bash

openssl genrsa -out server.key -rand /dev/urandom:/dev/random 1024
echo "REMEMBER: Common name is the hostname of the server"
openssl rsa -in server.key -out server.pem

openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr

openssl x509 -req -days 3655 -in server.csr -signkey server.key -out server.crt

I installed debian on haruko today. Haruko is currently in use as the router/NAT between the home.blade.io network and the internet.

-------

I decided to delete the blade.io server blog and merge it into this one. Since I barely updated either. I intend to use this for both its original purposes and to keep track of changes to the blade.io/guyblade.com/etc. domains.

Fixed the utstatsdb. Apparently the database had been set read-only. Once I fixed the database, I ran the statsdb update and added the ~100 matches that were waiting to be merged.

P... Phosphorous You scored 47 Mass, 44 Electronegativity, 39 Metal, and 0 Radioactivity!

You're high energy... really high. Unfortunately, you don't always put your energy to calm constructive use and sometimes let it all out in intense bursts. If your energy can be harnessed however, you will produce truly great things. I suggest you take up a job that runs you ragged... like opening and closing a Sodium-Potassium pump. Socially you ought to hang with a crowd that is even more social than you. If you don't, well... all those people who spontaneously combusted throughout history... you guessed it, phosphorous people who didn't have enough to occupy themselves. When picking friends make sure most of them rated high on the electronegativity scale... Chlorines, Oxygens and whatnot.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 74% on Mass You scored higher than 82% on Electroneg You scored higher than 21% on Metal You scored higher than 0% on Radioactivity

I've migrated all of guyblade.com's content over to freasha. She will probably be the primary host for the forseeable future.

I added a favicon.ico file to freasha.blade.io’s apache install.

added some basic server stats for freasha. Hopefully this will be expanded in the future.

I also intend to begin the migration of guyblade.com onto freasha or eve in the near future.

Eve was updated to the newest Debian release. She is also now running a 2.6.10 kernel. Hopefully, she will be running a half-life deathmatch server by sunday.

Right now, the Unreal Tournament 2004 server is online. It’s address is magi.blade.io. After break, I intend to start an Half-Life server. If there is interest, I may start a HL2 deathmatch server later on.
