Switch Rancid to SVN and View Your SVN DB With WebSVN

In the previous blog I explained how you can use Rancid to create back-ups of your network devices. Now I will explain how you can create a website where you can view the configurations and compare them with previous versions.

Backing Up Network Devices With Rancid Opensuse 11 2

One of the most forgotten backups is that of the network devices, while it can save you a lot of time (thus money) when things get broken. Luckily there is a tool, called Rancid.

Installing Unison on Windows

Scribefire Finally a Replacement for Windows Live Writer

Although I like Windows (I think Windows 7 works pretty well), I find myself most of the time working on one of my Linux machines. When I wanted to make a blogpost I had to use the Wordpress buildin editor, which works, but is very basic compared to Windows Live Writer.

XNA 3D Pong

At school we got 2 XNA lessons, just to fill up our last weeks, since I hope to graduate this year. 2 lessons isn’t much, especially when you realize that that’s about 3 hours total.
