      <title>Climb On, three firsts in one climb</title>

      <description><![CDATA[With Jessica's plane being delayed a day and Devin and his girlfriend needing a camping chaperon, I had the chance to go camping this weekend.&nbsp; Because I was doing them a 'favor', they agreed to my choice of camping sites.&nbsp; So I choose <a href="http://www.smithrock.com">Smith Rock</a> (of coarse :)<br />
<br />
Once I sent them on their way hiking around the rock, I started getting ready.&nbsp; I could not wait, this was the first time I had a chance to try my new climbing toys.<br />
<br />
In the past I have solo climbed from a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_rope">top rope</a>.&nbsp; I would fix the rope, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abseiling">reppel</a> down and then climb back up using an <a href="http://en.petzl.com/petzl/Produit?Produit=125">ascender</a> with a custom chest harness.<br />
<br />
A lot of climbs can't be accessed from the top.&nbsp; I would have to pass them up in favor ones I could hike to the top of first.&nbsp; The desire to be able to walk up to almost any climb and start on up prompted me to purchase the <a href="http://www.wrenindustries.com/silentpart.html">Silent Partner</a>.&nbsp; At the same time I also purchased the beginnings of a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_climbing">trad rack</a>.<br />
<br />
Everything came together this weekend.&nbsp; I choose my spot and (1) did my first solo lead climb using my Silent Partner,&nbsp; (2) my first time setting trad gear, and (3) my first lead trad climb.<br />
<br />
The only real issue climbing by myself, is carrying all the gear.&nbsp; I try to be prepared for almost any situation, and that makes the backpack very heavy.&nbsp; Other then being very tired, I had an excellent time and could not have been happier when after over 4hrs of preparation and climbing, I topped out and sat on the edge of the cliff without another soul in sight.<br />
<br />
Don't get me wrong, I do like climbing with others.&nbsp; Its just rare finding a person to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belayer">belay</a> you where and when you can climb.<br><br><a href='http://www.jazd.com'>Stephen Jazdzewski<a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href='http://www.jazd.com/BlogView.aspx?pageid=1&ItemID=23&mid=42'>Comments...</a>]]></description>

      <title>rpmnew files after a yum update</title>
      <link>http://www.jazd.com/BlogView.aspx?pageid=38&amp;mid=42&amp;ItemID=22</link>

      <description><![CDATA[After doing a yum update, or any form or update using an rpm based tool, you are left with a lot of .rpmnew files hanging around.&nbsp; These changes are very important to incorporate.&nbsp; If your like me, I wait so long between server updates (except security based ones) that I may have over 50 of these generated.<br />
<br />
You should keep a short list of the configuration files that you must configure by hand, or would cause great harm if they were applied in the blind.<br />
<br />
A short list of these are:<br />
<pre class="wiki">/etc/passwd.rpmnew<br />/etc/group.rpmnew<br />/etc/modprobe.conf<br />...</pre>
<p>Be sure to remove these files type of .rpmnew files before continuing.</p>
<p>You can find your waiting .rpmnew files:</p>
<pre>updatedb<br />locate rpmnew<br /></pre>
<p>Now you should be left will a lot of files, so just to be sure, do a diff of them all, just in case you forgot something.</p>
<pre>updatedb<br />locate rpmnew | while read line; do diff $line ${line%.rpmnew}; done | less</pre>
<p><font size="2">(07/24/2007 update, thanks John :)</font></p>
<pre>locate rpmnew | while read line; do diff -ruN ${line%.rpmnew} $line; done | less</pre>
<p>Once you have carefully evaluated the output of the above and either merged the files or decided the new file is a good thing.</p>
<p><strong>WARNING!</strong> This next step could disable your computer and make it so you can't restart or log back in!&nbsp; Be sure you know what your doing.</p>
<p>To move the remaining files over the current files:</p>
<pre>updatedb<br />locate rpmnew | while read line; do mv -f $line ${line%.rpmnew}; done</pre>
<p>This all seemed to work on my <a href="http://www.centos.org/">CentOS </a>5.0 and 4.0 systems.</p>
<br />
On my <a href="http://gentoo.org">Gentoo</a> systems, all I do is execute <tt>etc-update</tt>.<br><br><a href='http://www.jazd.com'>Stephen Jazdzewski<a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href='http://www.jazd.com/BlogView.aspx?pageid=1&ItemID=22&mid=42'>Comments...</a>]]></description>

      <title>Postgres and selinux</title>
      <link>http://www.jazd.com/BlogView.aspx?pageid=38&amp;mid=42&amp;ItemID=21</link>

      <description><![CDATA[Had a little fun today getting <a href="http://www.postgresql.org">progresql</a> working in a directory other than <tt>/var/lib/pgsql</tt> on a <a href="http://www.centos.org">CentOS</a> 5.0 system with selinux enabled.<br />
<br />
The actual intention is to use lvm snapshot to backup the database.&nbsp; So rather than mount the dedicated partition to <tt>/var/lib/pgsql</tt>, I decided to mount it to <tt>/pgsql</tt> instead.<br />
<br />
I added these lines to <br />
<tt>/etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts</tt> <br />
<pre>/pgsql/data(/.*)?     system_u:object_r:postgresql_db_t:s0<br />/pgsql        system_u:object_r:postgresql_db_t:s0<br />/pgsql/pgstartup\.log system_u:object_r:postgresql_log_t:s0</pre>
Then I fixed the files in the new location<br />
<pre>/sbin/fixfiles check /pgsql<br />/sbin/fixfiles restore /pgsql<br /><br /></pre>
<p>Finally updated&nbsp; <tt>/etc/init.d/postgresql </tt><br />
</p>
<pre>PGDATA=/pgsql/data<br />PGLOG=/pgsql/pgstartup.log<br /><br /></pre>
<p>Most likely I will decide that not mounting on <tt>/var/lib/pgsql</tt> is a bad idea, but I would like to be able to start parallel servers that point to snapshots at some time in the future.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[Myself and the crew from <a href="http://CBTNuggets.com">CBT Nuggets</a>, just returned from Mix07.<br />
<br />
I did lunch with <a href="http://tirania.org/blog">Miguel de Icaza</a> <span class="whiteLarge">(Founder Gnome, Mono and Co-founder Ximian) </span>and was able to mention MojoPortal in a Q&amp;A session.&nbsp; Thanks Joe for mentioning it in your <a href="http://www.mojoportal.com/BlogView.aspx?pageid=2&amp;ItemID=333&amp;mid=19">blog post</a> today <img src="/FCKeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/regular_smile.gif" alt="" />.<br />
<br />
I was the first to stand up and ask a question at the <span class="whiteLarge"><a href="http://sessions.visitmix.com/default.asp?event=1015&amp;session=2015&amp;pid=PAN05&amp;disc=&amp;id=1538&amp;year=2007&amp;search=PAN05">Open Source Applications Using the .NET Platform</a> Panel Discussion.&nbsp; The panel consisted of <br />
Miguel de Icaza,&nbsp; <br />
Andi Gutmans (Co-developned PHP and the 'nd' in Zend) and <br />
Mike Schrep (Mozilla) among others, <br />
so I was a little nervous.&nbsp; You can hear my question and the responses 50 minutes into the <a href="http://sessions.visitmix.com/default.asp?event=1015&amp;session=2015&amp;pid=PAN05&amp;disc=&amp;id=1538&amp;year=2007&amp;search=PAN05">recording</a>.<br />
<br />
The last day of the conference I had lunch with Miguel de Icaza, <a href="http://haacked.com">Phil Haack</a> (CTO veloc-it.com) and <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/brada">Brad Abrams</a> (Co founder of CLR and .Net Framework teams at Microsoft).<br />
I mostly did the listening except for a brief discussion about how Miguel and I both use Vi and Emacs interchangeably.&nbsp;&nbsp; Most people use one of the other exclusively, but depending on the context of the file, we will edit it with Vi or Emacs without consciously knowing why.<br />
<img width="600" height="456" src="http://www.jazd.com/Data/Sites/2/GalleryImages/MiguelPhilBradLunch.jpg" alt="Miguel, Phil and Brad" /><br />
Thank you Phil for sending me this photo.<br />
<br />
A special thanks to my brother <a href="http://www.removingalldoubt.com">Chuck Jazdzewski</a> for insisting that I attend the conference.<br />

Jessica and I both needed a break from Eugene, so we spent the weekend at the <a href="http://www.oarhouse-bed-breakfast.com">Oar House Bed &amp; Breakfast</a> in Newport Oregon.<br />
<br />
On Saturday we walked from downtown Newport to the top of the lighthouse and back.&nbsp; It started out rainy in the morning, but by the time we started heading back to the B&amp;B, it was sunny and warm.<br />
<br />
The B&amp;B was cozy and the Jan creates the best breakfasts.&nbsp; Both mornings we had a least one delicious thing we had never had before.<br><br><a href='http://www.jazd.com'>Stephen Jazdzewski<a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href='http://www.jazd.com/BlogView.aspx?pageid=1&ItemID=16&mid=42'>Comments...</a>]]></description>
