New Job
Started a new job last week and must say now starting my second week is that I've never been so bored.
Time for a new NAS
I’m currently paying for 50gb of remote storage but the trouble is I need to backup too much data offsite ie in excess of 500gb to make this facility financially viable. I’ve been searching for a suitable box that I can place at a friends house so I can backup my files to there. I have 2 spare 500gb sata drives so looked at NAS enclosures, I drilled it down to a D-Link DNS-323 and a Thecus 2100 both of which have low operating costs in terms of power consumption something which is important as my friend is hosting it for free. After spending some time looking at specs I’ve decided on the Thecus. It has a faster CPU 600mhz, upgradable memory, 3 USB ports and 2 gigabit network ports. The plan is to run Debian 6.0 on it.
I’m currently watching 2 on fleabay so will hopefully nab one of those.

E220 Modem On NSLU2 Running Debian Lenny
A while back I was trying to get my tmobile e220 modem running on my nslu2 and I tried everything wvdial / network-manager etc etc but still nothing. Getting it to work was the major foundation to a project I was doing so HAD to be done. I was at my wits end when I stumbled purely by accident a webpage explaining how to do it via UMTS. Here’s a copy of the page for archive purposes only none of it is my work and all credit goes to the author.
