The good news and the bad

Posted December 12, 2007 at 09:12am in General, Linux

The bad news is it looks like one of my clients may have been attacked. I kept noticing problems and found that the reboot and shutdown commands were missing. When I did a hard reboot I found out init was also missing so the server was dead in the water. Those commands just don’t go missing. After spending hours that night trying to move things to a new VPS I had trouble moving the PostgreSQL databases and just got those working yesterday.

One piece of good news is the car was taken into the shop and I found out it wasn’t going to be the $1800 I thought it was going to be, it is going to be like $800-900. It would have been less if I had taken it in sooner since the rotors rusted badly.

The 2nd to last piece of good news is that I am moving to Atlanta at the end of this month for a new job and I am VERY excited.

The last piece of good news will have to wait, but soon, very very soon.
