After a full day of messages going backwards and forwards between myself and our firewall admins, here’s a gem of a post with a script to restrict the port range used by passive FTP on Windows 2003 server (as well as telling Windows Firewall to leave those ports open). Who would have thought securing FTP would be so involved…

Courtesy of Slashdot, news that Network Solutions are front running domain names. I don’t care much for their response that this is to protect us, the customer, from evil do-ers. Especially when they charge a premium ($34.99) for their domain names, whereas services like Go Daddy offer them for $9.99. Way to go Network Solutions!!

New year, new look, search engine friendly URLs, fresh apache 2 install, ditto for MySQL. Add to that an additional 20% of RAM (thank you Linode!!), all in all a good start to the new year, promises to be a good one.
