I’ve delivered simple, clear and easy-to-use services for 20 years, for startups, scaleups and government. I write about the nerdy bits here.

Calm is good

Ahhhhhhhhhhh.  The blissful sound of Apache working.  Don’t say anything.  That’s right, it’s SILENT!  Admittedly, it made no noise before, but hey… all is good!  IT WORKS!!!

The problem?  Yeah, it was yet another PEBKAC error… that said, I’m still a little peeved at SuSE – the reason I screwed up was simply because I misesd a very simple detail amongst all the Include’ings of other files… by default, their httpd.conf denies access to the entire filesystem.  Wonderful!  Anyway.  It’s working now, so I’m happy :)

Only one thing left to setup, and that’s Samba and my wonderful WORKING HP printer!  Yay!  You have no idea how sexy a test page can look until you struggle with a printer for a few hours… a few re-compilations later and all was good.  Sharing is caring, though, and apparently that is also going to chew my time.

Before I sit down and hack at that one, though, I think I’ll kick back to some random interface tweaking, simply because I can, and it’s something which is relaxing – yes, relaxing!  Hehehehehe.

I’m a geek, watcha going to do about it?
