s5h.net:About

From s5h.net

This page originated some time ago as a text generated page built from perl scripts. Later it became a blog because I had run out of time to create my own tag cloud. Later, for performance reasons wordpress doesnt really scale on small hardware I moved it all to a MediaWiki.

The data here is generally in categories of blog, linux news or unix.

The owner of this wiki is generally interested in bash, mutt, screen and vim, which are used on a daily basis. Other interests include programming in perl, python, gdb and gcc.

I once had enough time to write a document for linux gazette on DNS techniques back in issue 130.

Some time in 2007 I decided that it'd be cool to learn to write some apache httpd modules.

The linux kernel is very interesting to me and I have read several books about it, but I’m still waiting for some creativity before I find an area where a new module or alteration might be required, this is more an interest than an area that I’m active in.

For a few years I was a qmail administrator.

My profile is available on freshmeat.

My degree is from Lincoln University in Computing and Internet Technologies, I have a HND in Computing from Reading College and an OND in Computing from Newbury College and I've worked in the ISP business since 2003.
