Changes to my Unix pages

When I make a change or addition to any of my Unix pages, I've wondered if anyone could tell what in the heck was changed. I know I wouldn't be able to tell if I hadn't actually made the changes in the first place. So... here's my "Change" page. I'll put down the basics of what was changed or added and maybe a link to the actual spot (or close to it), where the change/addition was made.

Like all my other pages, if you see something wrong please let me know so I can fix it.

Date
What was changed or added
7/14/2006
  • Added a bunch of stuff to the Unix Notes page. Changed the Table of Contents a bit. More to come.
  • Minor changes (to many spaces and a typo) to some text in the Server Builds page.
7/05/2006
  • Reworded some text in the TCPwrappers area on my Sever Build page.
6/21/2006
  • Added some additional sendmail checking and check the snmp.conf file both in my Sever Build page.
6/18/2006
  • Had to add the floppy conversion. I just had too. Unix Notes page.
6/15/2006
  • Added the Java "Top" piece and the PayPal thing to the Unix Notes page.
  • Added a bunch of stuff all over the page. More to come. Sorry I can't be more exact.
5/15/2006
  • Added the Java "Top" piece and the PayPal thing to the GSP, Ignite and the Inetd pages.
  • Added the generic login and password used on a GSP. Oddly enough, I did this in my GSP page under "Command line fun".
  • Thought it would be a good idea to add the generic GSP login and password info onto my Server Build page.
5/12/2006
  • Has it really been a year since I updated anything? Oh wait... I did update stuff but I guess I didn't update this beast. Yeah... I'll go with that. Anyway, I'm in the middle of adding a java script (if you want to call it that), on just about all my pages. It's that goofy "Top" thing at the lower right hand corner. This way you and I can get to the top of the page easier. Sorry it's a bit hard to see sometimes. The rest of the text on the page may get in the way.
  • I also put at the very bottom of some pages my begging for money (but comic books older than 1970 would be nice too). You now can make donations to me. I'd like to tell you I'm a non-profit organization. Heck, I'd like to tell you I'm a for-profit organization. Actually I get no profit at all from these web pages (hmmm... maybe somebody will hire me).
  • Ok, on with the other additions/changes... I added the setboot command to my Server Build doc. Go to the Post O/S Installation section and scroll up three lines or so. It's there. I also added a note to the Tighten up file permissions and ownership section.
4/6/2005
  • Added info about checking the GSP on my GSP page.
3/30/2005
  • Added info about resetting the GSP on my GSP page.
3/29/2005
  • Changed the square bracket numbering in the NDD section of my Server Build page.
3/16/2005
  • Had to remove a bad link in the Ignite page.
3/15/2005
1/20/2005
  • Added instl_boots and medusa info and added /var/adm/inetd.sec info to inetd.conf Info page.
10/21/2004
  • Fixed some spelling errors (how did they get thar?) on all my Unix pages. OK, so I use Notepad or VI in order to change my pages. Can you say "Spell Check"?.
  • Changed the wording a bit in order to explain myself a bit better (more gooder). Also added port and application info to: inetd.conf Info page.
  • Added command line reset information and a link to my Server Build page in case you want to configure the GSP web console. All this on my GSP Info page.
  • On my Server Build page I changed the order when building a mirrored drive (at the bottom of the page). Check the drive *after* you add diag stuff. I removed the Predictive part due to it not being supported any more. Put in a little info about roots home directory (/root instead of /), at the beginning of the page.
  • Added some links to Unix Notes page. Got rid of the "PC Stuff" section. Added the "Other CDE stuff" section.
3/1/2004
2/26/2004
  • Forgot to add the "1" to the security_patch_chk cron line so it fires off on Monday instead of everyday. DOH!!! It's located in my Build an HP-UX server page.
2/26/2004
2/23/2004
  • My buddy Jim Dunn had a better Super Dome picture so I snagged it and changed out the one I originally had on my Unix Notes page.
  • Added some basic Veritas info to: Unix Notes.
  • Added a way to get more CPU info: Unix Notes.
2/18/2004
  • Added a Super Dome picture near the top of: Unix Notes. Sorry it's not a nicer picture.
  • Moved the location of the "changes" note and added a "add my page to your Favorites" piece - both near the top, and added the only HP Sys Admin Cert logo I could find to the bottom of: Unix Notes, Build an HP-UX server, Ignite, GSP Info, and inetd.conf Info pages.
2/10/2004
  • Added a way to find what depots you have on your server to: Unix Notes
2/4/2004
  • Fixed typo's in: Build an HP-UX server
  • Changed "Changes to sendmail.cf" link (and heading) to "Sendmail stuff" because I'm adding general sendmail info. It's not just about the sendmail.cf file anymore in: Unix Notes
  • Added "Other OnlineJFS stuff" items to: Unix Notes
  • Added "Check CDE configuration" to: Unix Notes
  • Gave more detail about kernel changes and creation to: Unix Notes
  • Added the info to remove a patch or software depot in: Unix Notes

Ok.. so I put this waaay down at the bottom of this web page. I don't expect anyone to actually toss a buck or two my way as a thank you for all the work I've done on this site (Hmmm... feel guilty yet?), but it sure would be nice.

Please donate!
