Monday 6/30

- Seriously fucko weekend.� Friday night went out with Chez for a drink or two, took her back to her car around 7 so she could meet up with Kellie to see a movie.� Didn't want to tag along so I stopped at a borders books for a while and read before driving home.

- Saturday I got up late and went out with Auriel shopping for motorcycles (Vulcan 900 classic maybe), went to the Can't Stop the Serenity charity event, had a really late dinner and stayed up half the night watching Sopranos.

- Sunday, got up and went straight to Urgent Care to see wtf is wrong with my throat.� I swear something is stuck in there and driving me half nuts.� They took an x-ray and said they don't see anything.� I should go for more xrays today but fuck it, I have too much work to do.�

- I talked with my mom & one of my brothers on IM for about half the night, watched the end of Sopranos Season 1 and episode 1 of Season 2.� Made myself a salmon fillet with potatos and mushrooms for dinner.� Some exciting life.

- Must cancel appt with Sofya today at 4.

- 09:00 - Groggy and tired this morning, can't drink the coffee fast enough.� Dr. suggested trying an antihistamine last night to make my throat stop feeling weird so I took a nyquil.� They always make me feel woogy.

- Mail from Matt T. with defects list from 6/27 testing round.� Slotted at 10:30 to discuss this and other topics with Matt & SS.

-- Gathering materials and docs & targets for dev LDAP implementation this afternoon.�

10:45 - 10:30 meeting with SS & Matt etc regarding date "issue".� Prince Chilli Longhorn is back from his trip to his home country.� He understands my point and agrees.� SS didn't even show up for the meeting.� Everyone on the call is in agreement that I'm not changing system locale settings in order to alter the short-date displayed in the app.� They will push SS to get it done in his coding or to find the resources to make it happen on the backend.

10:50 - Mr. T. showed me the new search engine he built for our docs.� This is seriously dope shit.� Bookmarked and will be used FREQUENTLY!� :)� Well done Mr. T!

2:50 - Fucking around most of the pre-noon and afternoon hours with LDAP setup in Dev.� Pan won't auth against apollo no matter what options we set up.

authconfig --enableldap --enableldapauth --ldapserver=apollo --ldapbasedn=ou=sic,o=int,o=sctsdlabbr --enableldaptls

authconfig manual setup fails.� Hoppy and Hooper both on the line.� We run through various iterations of the configuration.� Using URI instead of HOST, verifying nsswitch.conf is setup, alternating between 27366 and 389 on port, alternating between separate port line & including it with the URI.� Watching the logs shows various errors.�

-- Pull clone of Pan and give it to Hooper to muck with in workstation.�

-- Existing clone of pan on texoma, delete and reclone.� Delete didn't free disk space, talking with Slick to find out why.�

[root@texoma dx11]# ps -ef|grep ccag
root����� 1191���� 1� 0 Jun26 ?������� 00:34:13 /usr/sbin/vmware-ccagent -s -d
root���� 21335� 1191� 0 14:13 ?������� 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/vmware-ccagent -s -d
[root@texoma dx12231]# kill -9 1191 21335

-- Slick is going to blow away the clone of oceanus and see if we can get the disk to report free & clone Pan.� Ok.� Copy is working.� He suggested having Cartman check the network traffic both ways.� Sent email to Hoops.

    CORALINE's Interests:

    About Me: Little Plastic Castle is an extension of This Child's Life which is not hosted at inboxjournal. This blog will make little sense to anyone other than myself. It's a stream of consciousness log of what I do on a daily basis in my job as a UNIX computer systems engineer. o/~ "They say goldfish have no memory, I guess their lives are much like mine...so the little plastic castle is a surprise every time, and its hard to say if they're happy, but they don't seem much to mind." o/~ I endeavor to respect confidentiality and thus I use nicknames for the people I work with. (Mr. T, Ratface, Jerry, Cartman, Grandpa Simpson, Slick, and so on.) I drop system names in here and abbreviations, but any note that requires something like a FQDN will always be marked private. You can comment if you like, but I'll only respond if I feel like it.

    Interests: Cast of Characters: Just a few of the names I use for people, this is the nickname and what their job responsibility is. Mr. T - My Direct Manager (Engineering) Slick - ESX Specialist Cartman - Network Engineering Lead Grandpa Simpson - Network Engineer Becky - WebSphere Engineer Ratface - Developer/Architect Jerry - Project Manager (BTI) Matt T. - Project Manager (Blackbird) The Martian - Application Developer AVP Ice Queen - Engineering AVP Chez - Assistant to Ice Queen Watts - Engineering/Development Sr. Mgr. Hoppy - I.T. Security LDAP Squirrelface - I.T. Security Accts Woodchuck - I.T.
