"Apple technology evangelists will soon be traveling the globe to bring iPhone application development expertise to a city near you."



Except that by the time I got the email about this event, both Australian events (Melbourne and Sydney) were full. Not even the chance to sign up and get sent the slides, when the event is over. How slack.

Daily Tees

Posted In Official |

Daily TeesI'm launching a new site today called Daily Tees, dedicated to one of my secret loves and that's T-Shirts.

I love T-Shirts, I wish I could get more, but my wife makes sure I don't go overboard ;)

In saying that, my new job allows me to wear T-Shirts on a daily basis and so, my urge to buy shirts has been strong lately, though with the current economic crisis causing our dollar to crash, I've had to put a few purchases on hold.

Anyway, head on over to the site, add the RSS feed and check in daily as we'll always having something new.

{mosimage}Please note, due adding many new features which have blown up the image size of FreeNAS it is not possible to upgrade to the latest 0.69b4 from previous installations if you have choosen the embedded OS/DATA installation mode. In this case you have to backup your data from the DATA partition and do a fresh installation.




Majors changes:

Upgrade to FreeBSD 6.4.

Upgrade rsync to 3.0.4.

Upgrade PHPMailer to 2.2.1.

Upgrade Transmission to 1.34.



Minors changes:

Modify /etc/rc.d/samba script.

Add 'Who' combobox to RSYNC client/local jobs to select user which is used to execute this job.

Add 'Enable' checkbox to RSYNC client/local jobs to enable/disable them (FR 2123243).

Add hw.ata.to=15 to sysctrl to prevent 'TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA' errors, e.g. when using APM for harddrives (FR 2101811).



Bug fixes:

Fix bug in zoneinfo port.

Remove Samba --with-utmp build parameter. It causes a crash when accessing shares (BR 2118240).

Fix bug in Samba Makefile which causes various problems, e.g. it was not possible to join an AD domain.



Permanent restrictions:

It is not possible to format a SoftRAID disk with MSDOS FAT16/32.

It is not possible to encrypt a disk partition, only complete disks are supported.

It is not possible to get seperate CPU stats per processor on SMP machines because FreeBSD does not support that feature.

Enable 'polling' on interfaces used by a LAGG interface will make it inoperable.



Known bugs:
