Time lapses have been something that have always fascinated me and I love some of the sequences people have created. After hanging out with my buddy and discussing time lapses I thought I would give it a go. I’ve recently moved into a high-rise overlooking the main exhibition grounds in my city and thought it […]
I spent some time down in Byron Bay with my best friend over the weekend and I took my camera with me. These were taken from the same bridge facing north and south just after midnight on Monday. If you want any details about the images, just ask and I’ll let you know. It’s the first time […]
I spend a lot of time on the Internet, its part of my job. I look after servers, write software and do all kinds of ‘Internet things’ for work, play and just plain curiosity. Today a good friend of mine linked me to this piece written by Peter Welch called Programming Sucks. For anyone that’s in […]
Unless you’ve been under a rock for the last day and a half you would have heard something about the latest OpenSSL vulnerability called Heartbleed. This article is going to help anyone that cares about the heartbleed vulnerability and WordPress SSL.

This is super easy to set up for your Windows and Mac desktops but is sometimes a little harder with a Linux workstation. This is all done […]
The other night I was helping a friend out and they needed a better adsl router/wireless router and I happened to have one of these Cisco SRP527W units at home. It’s a good little set and forget device (when they behave) so I thought I’d install that. A few things that I had forgotten about […]
I’ve done a few dozen installs of the new office 2013 on various machines lately and until now all email hosting has been through either gmail or 0ffice365 so I hadn’t come across the issue of messages being stuck in the outbox. In my case the email account in question was an IMAP account and […]
I was configuring a new CentOS 6.5 machine to accept Active Directory logins and up until recently you could use the trust pam_mkhomedir.so to auto create home directories on login. This has since been replaced by a new system called Oddjobd and after the standard authconfig tool I enabled the auto create home directories and […]
