Microsoft Kin

May 14th, 2010

Is it just me or does anyone else think the Microsoft Kin looks like it has the worst phone UI ever created? The “loop”… the “spot”… what the heck? I just watched a hands-on video. I think it’s supposed to be easy to use, but it looks so, so complicated. I don’t have Verizon, but even if I did, I can safely say I’d never consider the Kin.  I’m not sure I’d even consider the “next of Kin”.  (I couldn’t resist.)  Anyone else have an opinion?

For reference: Here is the video I’m referring to:

Awstats in Virtualmin

May 5th, 2009

So read this carefully.  If you are trying to setup awstats in Virtualmin, do not do as I do, or as I did rather.  In my attempts to automate the awstats setup for virtual servers in virtualmin, I wrote a script in php that would crawl through Apache’s httd.conf file, extract all ServerNames, and build the awstats config files one by one.  This script would run everytime a new virtual server was created in Virtualmin.  I have to admit it was one of the best scripts I’ve ever written.  The problem?  It was completely unneccessary.  I stumbled across a website to, ready…. DOWNLOAD THE AWSTATS PLUGIN FOR VIRTUALMIN!!  Do not be decieved, there is a plugin for Webmin for awstats, but you really don’t need that one.  The one you need can be found here;

http://www.webmin.com/cgi-bin/search_third.cgi?cat=Virtualmin

Remember, you will need to have awstats installed, with perl working, and your cgi-bin enabled, of course.  But other than that, simply download the file above, un tar it, and use the webmin module installer to install it.  It will then show up under “Features and Plugins” menu under “System Settings” in Virtualmin where it can be further customized.  It will now create Awstats for each virtual server that you create.  If anyone needs any help, just let me know!
