Welcome To Smythies.com

 

Things are just getting started:

 

2002:03:24 e-mail sort of works, finally. E-mail to/from seems quite reliable. E-mail to/from seems to 20% makes it out, and 0% makes it in all the way in (I’m pretty sure the mail actually gets to this server, somewhere).

2002:03:23 The IP address that has been hammering this site for about 4 weeks, has finally stopped.

2002:03:11 “Click” here to go directly to the U11 Girls – Terriers Soccer page.

2002:02:21 System news: www.smythies.com did not have internet access for most of today.

In fact, I could not “ping” anybody on the 64.180.103.* sub-net from another access point to internet.

It seems to be O.K. tonight.

2002:02:17 System news: There were access gaps over the last few days. I was testing Belding’s computer and internal adsl modem on my adsl line (what a saga). I also had to re-boot my adsl modem today (which is a rare requirement). I still haven’t figured out the e-mail server stuff (it was so easy with linux 5.2). I am expecting to have to do a system re-build soon, as I now realize I made some mistakes in this build.

2002:02:17 The U11 girls – Terriers website gets the most updates.

2002:02:02 Start to add crude links. I still haven’t got the e-mail server stuff figured out.

2002:01:30 I don’t seem to have a mail server running. I thought I did.

2002:01:30 smythies.com and www.smythies.com begin to point to 64.180.103.81. However not all name servers yet.

2002:01:29 Put this page up on 64.180.103.81 (which will be smythies.com) as a test.

2002:01:29 Have Static IP. Don’t have Smythies.com pointing there. It is pointing to the Telus web server.

2002:01:29 been busy with volunteer stuff, Soccer, other computers, …

2002:01:16 Hmmm, no static IP address.

2002:01:15 I should have static IP address’ by now.

2002:01:12 Borrow a web page from Richard Neufeld, so that I can figure out how to do one.

2002:01:05 re-build O.S. for the nth time.

2002:01:02 Begin saga with Telus. Objective =  some place to have my server

2002:01:02 Book the domain name.

2002:01:01 Determine that Smythies.com Domain name is available

2001:12:23 Put up an experimental web server on Aphrodite.rfnet.sfu.ca

Note that I have an experimental amateur radio station 440mhz 56Kbaud rf-link to sfu.ca.

I have had a mail server running on hera.rfnet.sfu.ca for a few years.

 

Anyway, this page is just a test page. I hope to have better stuff going very soon. I don’t even know how to link to other pages yet.

I would say what O.S. is running and such, but Russell said that just helps the hackers.

 

Mission Statement: To continue to goof around with networks and internet.

Short term objective: Official Web site for C.C.S.A. U11-Girls Terriers.
