Mr. Bump on Sep 30th, 2008Lacking Inspiration
I’ve been a little uninspired lately. The tough thing is I really can’t put my finger on why. Maybe work has sucked enough life out of me to finally finish the “conformation.” Seems like this lack of inspiration is spilling over to BITW. I haven’t had a decent, well thought out post in some time. […]
Mr. Bump on Sep 25th, 2008Is It Just Me?
Or does Greg LeMond seem like a little bitch by “confronting” Lance Armstrong during his press conference today? I don’t think its just me.
I have a busy weekend ahead of me so I better get my Huskers pick in now. Nebraska is a 7 point favorite in their game against Virginia Tech Saturday nigh. I’ll […]
Mr. Bump on Sep 25th, 2008Four Days
Here it is Thursday night and we are four days into running the latest code on our LANenforcer 2024s. There has been a couple of rough spots but nothing that was not solvable. There is a feature or two that has changed in this latest release and one of the changes caused some sporadic access issues […]
Mr. Bump on Sep 25th, 2008How Does That Happen?
We posted a Systems Engineer position at work this week on Monster.com. Every morning I get an email from Monster with jobs that match my profile. The funny thing is I never received an email containing the Systems Engineer position we posted. I guess Monster doesn’t think I’m qualified for my own job!
Mr. Bump on Sep 23rd, 2008Housecleaning
Today was one of those days where you take the time to clean up some of the messes in your life. The first mess to be cleaned up was a sporadic SSL certificate problem the only affected about 50% of the visitors of a site. The kicker to that mess was that we couldn’t reproduce […]
Mr. Bump on Sep 22nd, 2008They Truly Hate Us
Friday night I had the opportunity to have a conversation with two “users” from two different companies. I walked away from the conversation that the users really hate us. Couple that with a conversation I had Friday afternoon with a member of the IT Department that I am a member of and I truly believe they hate […]
Mr. Bump on Sep 18th, 2008Really?
Just finished watching the Colorado/West Virginia football game. Colorado beats the 21st ranked team in the nation, a team that got clobbered by East Carolina, in West Virginia and the students rush the field? I don’t get it…but then again I hate Colorado. Just so you know.
Mr. Bump on Sep 18th, 2008A Long Day
Just a few quick notes tonight…
Had an odd behavior on one of our new LANenforcer 2024s today. For whatever reason it would not resolve our domain controllers by just hostname. The fully qualified domain name would resolve but the hostname would not. A quick solution was to add the domain controllers by IP address or […]
Mr. Bump on Sep 17th, 2008Nuff Said
Only one update from El Sidekick is needed to describe his week in Vegas at VMworld…
Ok it was only a minor inter national insadent. They forgave me, but it wasent all My. Fault
Mr. Bump on Sep 16th, 2008Wild Wild Virtual West
El Sidekick is at VMworld this week expanding his mind and stress testing his liver so I figured I might as well be doing a little virtual knowledge attaining myself. I installed the trial version of XenServer 5.0 Enterprise Edition along with XenCenter. I spent more time tracking down hardware to install this on than the […]
