Well the time has come where I have finally got some hardware that can max out gig ethernet. I sent 3.4 tb in 9 hours! Thats awesome! GG Cisco 3750 and 2 x Sun x4500 Thumpers running Opensolaris snv_105. Good times - I bet the copper was warm 🙂

If you do use x4500s or have the need to zfs send compile mbuffer today! It rocks - I went from 30mbyte a second with SSH to maxing out Gigabit Ethernet. I will post instructions on everything I did soon.
For another year. And many of the roumers were true:
- Thin notebook came with the introduction of the Macbook Air
Â
- Itunes Movie Rentals- Time Capsule
- A wireless Access Point / Wireless Storage Device to use with Time Machine
I still would of prefered a 12" fatter Mac like my old 12" Powerbook. Apple also still need a de-tuned Mac Pro, with 1 core 2 Processor and more affordable for that average punter.Â
Haha - This big bad plane will allow net access (awsome) but has a joined network design with the plane controlling equipment networks ... Not a good idea ! (Click for More Info)
 
Well, its Official now. I am a Junior Unix Systems Administrator and the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) and loving it. I am now in the real world, and thus that being the main reason to the lack of posts/activity here recently.
The last few days I attended Apple's Leopard Tech Talks and things look really good for the latest version of OS X. Things are good, work is good nothing to complain about. I have also recently started a CCNA course to become a Cisco Certified Network Associate, so the study also continues for some "real work" industry qualifications. Just an update to inform whats been happening ;).
It's now home, and hosted in my bedroom ! Welcome home Mr Blog! Thanks to paul for his hosting services in the past.

Telstra has finally uncapped it's ADSL1 network - Meaning higher speeds for us ! I have just churned to Exetel to get:
You have applied for the ADSL Plan: T 10U This ADSL Line Speed is at: 8192/384 (32 gig) The monthly ADSL access charge is : 65.00
This is awsome and according to the site it's a $45.00 churn fee but on my invoice it said free ! w00t 🙂 (I kept proof of that!). Due to this cooperlees.com, the blog and mail will shift to my own server due to the increase of bandwidth and a static ip ;). (I will have to settle down on torrents).
I encourage you all to churn asap. If you do please refer me. To do so email me and I shall give you my telephone number to quote on the online form.
