So if you want to make the cocoa, basically you take a small bit of ground red pepper (don't know my measurements, a little mound in the center of a normal spoon in 20oz is about right) into the cocoa. As for the tabasco sauce, four or five shakes of the bottle is probably about right (three wasn't quite enough). Anyways, the last two days have been interesting. Miscellaneous stuff at work, and then the network blew up. Turns out someone brough Sasser on ResNet, and it started overflowing the routers, and there were enough machines vulnerable they actually started saturating switches too. Network services finally squashed it by reconfiguring the switches to by default drop all traffic at the source port, waiting hours for the switches to actually get the new config as they couldn't even talk to the management system reliably so it had to work from the core slowly to the edge, and then moving people over as they're patched and known clean (such as moving all machines which had been using appletalk over to active again). Made a lot of stuff single clicks in the system or basically in most cases read off and verify and click a button but the Help Desk has been getting calls solid all night tonight. They actually went to CDs again as with machines which are infected can't be let on the network even limited to only talking to a machine with patches, and there's no way to sort them out. Everyone has to talk to the Help Desk to get online. I'm glad I'm not on the Help Desk. Today I got OS 10.3.3 server in and built a machine. Copied over the things to share and it's actually ready to be production. I actually had to fight with it a bit as the base install didn't even want to mount .dmgs, but I got that working again. Only took a few seconds to bind into AD, and Workgroup Manager looks cool although I haven't done much beyond add some shares (I'm not sure i like the opening accounts first though - it adds a big delay with AD when there's thousands of entries, not to mention the unneeded load on the domain if you're only going to go pull shares or something. I'm hoping I can turn AFP and AppleTalk off completely on the student server now and that'll fix the load. I have at least one other option up my sleeve still, but I'd rather not go that direction. Lunch on Wednesday was Village Wok. I really like that place, even if Ross sends us in the wrong direction to get there. :) On a totaly different topic again, garbage service is overpriced. I have the small container, yet I still manage to only get my garage picked up every month or month and a half out of laziness and still don't overflow the container (and that's with two people). Yet there's no option other than to pay for it as if it's picked up every week. They should really look into doing something like bi-weekly pickups or something.
