Round up

I meant to write this last night, but I took Nyquil for a cold and spent the night in bed, so I never quite go around to it. 🙂

I did, finally, get the AV stuff installed on my machine as the server and the new desktop as client, pulling the definitions from my machine. It refused to see my machine as a legit AV server until I rebooted my machine, so keep that in mind if you’re ever doing one of these. I had to install directly on to the new machine, I apparently have something screwed up with the shares and permissions in XP, because when I tried to deploy from my machine to it, I got “access denied” errors. I’ll have to look a bit more into that before I roll out that machine to the user, but other than that, it’s ready to go. Then I’ll have to do the two laptops, so I do hope I find the permisions problem relatively soon and get it taken care of on all three. Once those are out the door, I should be able to deploy to all the other machines currently on the network, since I know those permissions are working ok.

But that’s for tomorrow (and probably Monday as well..). Today I am auditing that HTML class, so I may not have any ‘net access during the day.

    Over at LifeHack.org today I saw the extension that does what we’ve all wished we could do with our Firefox settings. “FEBE backs up your extensions, themes, and (optionally) your bookmarks, preferences and cookies.” Of course, along with backing them up, it also makes them all transferrable to another computer! Freaking awesome! Tags: FEBE, Firefox…

    To the Jeff who emailed me about our voicemail server today, I haven’t been able to E-mail you back, my mail server is bouncing them.

    Last night, and then over lunch today, I installed the Skype Answering Machine on my laptop. Not because I have any real interest in starting to do any sort of audio, or podcasting, but just because I could. So if you have always wanted to tell me what you think of my blog, but never…

    I downloaded and played around a bit with Dave’s OPML Editor last night because I thought I might have use for an online outliner. You can see the result here. I think it’s a decent tool, and useful for a lot of things, but I’m not sure it’s the right tool for what I want…
