I've did an awful lot last month, and never quite got round to putting it down here. Where to begin...?
I managed to obtain two geriatric old PCs for my Frankenstein-esque experiments into home networking and have successfully build one system as a headless firewall/router and fileserver. Attempts to implement a caching nameserver on said box remain beyond my feeble brain. The firewall runs Vector Linux, a nice light distribution based off slackware.
Also, the interview that I mentioned in my last post was successful, and I have undergone four weeks of gruelling training in preperation for getting on the phones, which happens next week, under laboratory conditions with guidance and help from all sides, a Customer Service playpen, if you will.
Oh well, one has to dash.
