Fear of Failure
Yay! today is Work from home friday!!!! However, it is also the start of my discontent. Today marks one week that I have tried and failed to implement a school server. I only have a week left to close the ticket. This is quite worrysome for me as I was the one who wrote up most of the tickets for the project, and assumed the role of community lead. With no one in my home to seek guidance or confidence from, I tried, unsuccessfully, to just forget about my worries by digging through the code I found on day 18. If you have done as I have done and attempted to install a school server on an XO as they have described here: ht tp://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Holt/XS_Community_Edition/0.3/Installing, then code documents I was going to look through can be found in the following directories:
/bin/xs-setup-functions
/bin/xs-setup
/bin/xs-setup-network
/bin/xs-domain-config
/bit/bootstrap-xo/
/bootpart/security/state/etc/ssh/sshd_config
/etc/rssh
/etc/rc
/etc/sysctl
/etc/sysconfig/olps-scripts/domain_config,d
/var/log
/etc/rsyslog.conf
/etc/sysctl.conf
/etc/ssh/sshd_config
/etc/rssh.conf
/home/root/.bash_history
/usr/share/xs-config/plugins.d
/var/log/xs-setup.log
/usr/share.xs-config/cfg
I have been taking notes on my computer, but will very soon post what I have understood about them and the methods therein on an EtherPad for all to see. As this is a long list of notes, I was fighting a losing battle against my procrastinatory and failure-ready past self, and only finished going through an embarrassingly small amount of code. I was not paying attention to my laptop when FOSSmaster decause called a roll- call to see who was in channel. being in IRC chat is one-third of the necessary trifecta of Work-From-Home-Fridays, the other two being blogging and Tickets. I'm working on this ticket, but have no proof other than the blogs, but that will soon change when I whip out the aforementioned EtherPad. It would seem setting up a school server will require to understand it's processes thoroughly.
