Saturday, January 17th, 2009Easier than it looked
Friday, January 16th, 2009So far, the rebuild process is going along well. Later on the 14th, I went through the hardware on the system, thinking perhaps a controller had died, or a power splitter had failed. Neither was the case, as I had forgotten that I don’t have any controllers with only two disks plugged in, and the box isn’t actually using any splitters at all. I went through the whole thing and cleaned it out and checked all of the connections, and swapped a few SATA cables that seemed to be iffy just to be safe.
Oh, fun.
Wednesday, January 14th, 2009Woke up this morning, and my fileserver had emailed me this:

Looks like I get a trial-by-fire of MD RAID recovery tonight, once I figure out what broke.
My day with mod_rewrite
Tuesday, May 20th, 2008I’m a big fan of the Image Redirection script at ImgRed.com. It’s a great script to handle one of the most annoying things out there – posting images that are already hosted somewhere on the internet at another host. There’s no need to be ‘that guy’ who leeches bandwidth that isn’t his, and I’ve found that some other free image hosting services can be limited in functionality or tedious to use on their own.
Anyway, the script is something that I had set up at my old site with relatively little effort. The one thing that continually trips me up on setting it up, though, is making it all nice with Apache’s mod_rewrite functionality, which, for some reason, decided to give me fits on my new server.
Granted, I’m no god of mod_rewrite – setting up regex is hard enough when you can easily see and debug the output! (more…)
