I was browsing the wayback machine and thought I’d post a screenshot of our page back in December 2004. Back when we all had more time for playing around with game servers and fun 🙂
WiFi SSIDs on different VLANs
It’s been 10 years or so since I’ve posted anything meaningful to the si-ka.net network so I decided to it might be nice to start cross posting some of my technical or interesting topics from my personal blog here. Original. I thought I’d do a quick write-up covering WiFi SSIDs on multiple VLANs, something that…
Privacy Policy
Soon new laws will go into effect in the EU regarding data privacy. I assume anyone reading this has already noticed everyone updating their privacy policies. The German version of the laws exempt private websites, but the exact definition of what “private” means is a bit unclear. To err on the side of caution we…
Vodafone DSL and settings for LinkSys X3500 router
Since I had to fiddle with the settings at the router here is what finally worked for me: RFC 2516 PPPoE Multiplexing: LLC QoS Type: UBR PCR: default (4000) SCR: default (4000) VPI: 1 VCI: 32 DSL Modulation: ADSL2+ Username: 1und1/xxxx-yyy@online.de Password: [your password] Note: This works for ADSL based connections. VDSL is a different…
Cisco 4410N: strange solution for ‘Found beacon stuck’ or ‘stuck beacon; resetting’
We have three Cisco 4410n (WAP4410N-E V02 to be precise) access points delivering wireless lan in our offices. All of them serve the same SSID on different channels. This way we don’t need a roaming controller and have a cheap, simple setup. This worked quite well in the past months. But now and then two…
In the past, everything was better!
Really? Lets see … How many lines of code do you need for opening a file and read its content? Here is an example in Motorola 68000 Assembler and AmigaOS. Load_Files: ; lock the file move.l dosbase,a6 lea gfxfile_fn,a0 ; filename c-string move.l a0,d1 move.l #ACCESS_READ,d2 jsr _LVOLock(a6) ; get lock to our file tst.l…
getting the SPI LCD Module from DFRobot to work under Arduino 1.0
I bought myself this little gem from komputer.de but was, as many others, puzzled by the errors compiling the LCD12864RSPI example. D:\dev\arduino-1.0\libraries\LCD12864RSPI\LCD12864RSPI.cpp:10:21: error: wiring.h: No such file or directory D:\dev\arduino-1.0\libraries\LCD12864RSPI\LCD12864RSPI.cpp: In member function ‘void LCD12864RSPI::delayns()’: D:\dev\arduino-1.0\libraries\LCD12864RSPI\LCD12864RSPI.cpp:28: error: ‘delayMicroseconds’ was not declared in this scope D:\dev\arduino-1.0\libraries\LCD12864RSPI\LCD12864RSPI.cpp: In member function ‘void LCD12864RSPI::WriteByte(int)’: D:\dev\arduino-1.0\libraries\LCD12864RSPI\LCD12864RSPI.cpp:34: error: ‘HIGH’ was not declared…
fake publishing
Da glaubt man wirklich man hätte schon vieles im Netz gesehen und wird aber immer noch überrascht (bin wohl doch zu naiv). Die Geschichte in Kürze : Mein Kollege im Nachbarbüro befasst sich derzeit mit nginx als Webserver für manche unserer Anwendungen. Kurzerhand hat er sich vor ein paar Tagen ein Buch zum Thema ‘nginx‘…
Windows Server 2003 – NTFS Vererbungen reparieren mittels ICACLS.exe
Zugegeben: das Thema Rechte-Vererbungen unter NTFS ist nicht gerade prickelnd, aber trotzdem ist dies kein Grund es nicht korrekt einzusetzen. Leider bringen manche selbsterkorenen IT-Pro’s recht wenig Wissen in diesem (eigentlich recht wichtigem) Thema mit. Bei meinem derzeitigen Arbeitgeber hatte ich das Problem das in praktisch der gesamten Dateiablage (aka Fileserver) die Vererbung unterbrochen wurde….
