Just testing, just click the pointy triangle to play!

The last 6 months seem to have flown by, but no surprise really after running around after the 2 munchkins and holding down a full time job. Not had a great deal of time to dabble on the PC’s but have managed to update the Server to the latest release of Freebsd, and re-organise the disc space. Suppose I have managed to land 2 key projects
1. Fixed the ethernet connections that service the upstairs rooms in the house. Which means streaming video off the Sky box no longer relies on Wireless, so drop-outs and lag are a thing of the past, plus full access to the music collection to each bedroom. Not sure if it adds real value to the house, but it keeps me happy!
2. installed Azureus onto the server as a headless service. Azureus is a popular client for file-sharing which is how I now view most of my rugby, but generally relys on the nice point and click interface of a GUI, running off a server that has no monitor attached is a bit more difficult. With a bit of research and no small amount of luck, I have managed to get it running on FreeBSD. I really must write up the process, even if only for the experts to tell me there is a much simpler way… but no-one seems to have done that yet according to Google!
