At last! there's an internet rental here in LB that has Linux! Insight Computers has MDK 9.1 installed in one of their desktops.

This is great, i'll go here everytime.

Anyway, i have a class at 12. Gotta finish what i'm doing.

My aunt just died. I'm posting a photo of her.

I'll edit it later

I did a quick edit on my site. Now it looks a bit nicer.

I still have to make a script for it, tho. I don't want to hand-code everything again, everytime i want to post something. But this will do for now.

Just came from SM Megamall to go to the Exhibit for Phil Products hosted by DTI. I took more than 240 shots, i think. I hope that'll suffice for MIP.

Anyway, while i was on my way home. I saw something made by The Cartwheel Foundation, it's an organization that aims to "bring education where it is needed most!" I like the idea, and told them i'd help 'em. Maybe i'll make them a site, or advertise theirs on different sites, but i'm glad i could help. Here's a photo of some of the people there.

A reply was posted at Linux Packages forum for My IP Masquerading problem.

Tommorrow, i'll meet with other MIP people @ 701 Herrera Tower around 6pm.

I'm going to UPLB later, but i haven't figured out howto connect the other pc to the net using this box as a gateway, but at least i got to the point where the other pc could recognize that this box has a connection.

Right now, i'm reading an IP-Masquerade-HOWTO.

This is to make the other boxes here connect to the internet through this Linux Box. I've tried it before, but i was stuck configuring LOTS of files to no avail... hope this time it works.

Kewl! I saw an explanation of private IP addresses. Anyway, back to the HOWTO.

Got to reboot my system to see if /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall-2.4 would be executed with all OK's.

After rebooting. I ran the tests for IP Masquerade, and all was fine 'til i get to 5.7. Testing internal MASQ client to external MASQ server connectivity on a 'MASQed Linux client,' and up to 5.8. Testing external MASQ ICMP forwarding. The ping's just timed-out on both.

I also found the Linux IP Masquerade Resource website, it uses a free Redirection service. I also signed up for it.

Haven't successfully implemented IP Masquerading, but at least my WinXP box recognizes that i have an external connection.

Vector Linux 4.0 is great! I've installed it on all three pc's here, and the only problem i had is the display with the laptop, but that was easily solved by replacing the XF86Config-4 files on vector with the XF86Config files of Slackware 9.0. Aside from the speed, and reliability of hardware recognition, the apps in the cd were also ok. I specifically liked xfsamba. Hwehwehwehwe, it's kewl!
I just made a robots.txt file for rimatmag. This is for the persistent problem with the forums, that is, whenever a reply w/c came from a google search is done, it ruins the links. This is just a temporary solution. I should re-code the whole forum script to solve this.
Just found the Fedora Project, sponsored by Redhat.

Just found a post at slashdot that promotes the Sacred Jihad Against Slashdot. It's also discussed in kuro5hin, another community-moderated site.
