On the home front

Not much going on at the home front… Just been chillen here, watching TV and playing with christmas lights and circuits…

Last night i went out to dinner w/ Jen, Allie and Hargrave.. went to Fridays… It was good…

Finally got the Beyond TV server set back up… So its recording away again…

Also backed up my laptop to the server as i am going to reformat this laptop today… So you may not see me on for a few hours… Going to set it up to dual boot XP Pro and Ubuntu…

My goal is to use Ubuntu as much as possible to see how far one can go on just using linux to see if it is possible for someone to make the switch excluding those applications that i need that run exclusively on Windows… One example of this would be the Beyond TV Link software that i use to watch and control my beyond TV server from…

Also plan on upgrading the Beyond TV server to Windows Server 2003 since Windows XP Pro doesnt do that great of a job as a file server… So i will be doing that upgrade in the coming days as well… Probably before Christmas sometime… And after christmas, if i get a new processor and rackmount case, i will be setting that up as another webserver most likely since it will be more powerful than the current one and will most likely have more memory as well… And for the old computer I will probably turn it into a Back up server or a Domain Controller… maybe try out Fedora’s Directory Server… Ill figure something out :)

Well i am going to go finish a few more backups from the laptop and start process of installing everything again… Later.
