My server's OS partition died a few months ago, I have decided to switch from Linux to OpenBSD, so I'll be installing that.
Then I will use pf to set up my NAT
Then I will move some data off of some EXT3 formatted drives, and format them with FFS.
Then once I get the additional data drives formatted for FFS, I'll mount them.
Then, I'll set up my samba share.
Then it will be time to install Apache and PostgreSQL
Then I'll either mess with the ftpD that comes with OpenBSD, or I'll look for proftpd or something similar.
Once the FTP daemon is all good and configured, then I'll probably play around with fluxbox a little bit, just to get it set how I like it.

I'm sure I'd be able to do this quicker with Slackware, as I'm much more familiar to Slack, but one of the admins here (probably the best one at that) always speaks praises about OpenBSD so I figured I should at least try it.


EDIT, bah, I changed my mind ... Slackware on this box,
I would rather run OpenBSD on something that I can experiment more on

Going to go see Jet Li's Fearless tomorrow with the woman, then order our wedding cake from Publix and hit up the mall since she wants to exchange some crap.

Sunday her brothers coming over for dinner and we're planning on watching some DVD of sorts, plus I'm gonna give him a hand with his laptop since it seems like his hard drive is taking a crap.

Just got back from the store. Picked up a bottle of vodka, a bottle of kaluha, a gallon of milk, a bottle of Captain Morgan's Private Stock, a bottle of Hypnotik, a 6 pack of Red Hook IPA, 2 liter of sprite, half gallon of cranberry juice and some Rockstar energy drinks.

Oh, also.. a pack of 6 Buffalo burgers, and briquettes.

It's going to be a fun night.

I'm working 2nd shift right now, so the weekend starts tomorrow for me...

But I'm going going to the gym tomorrow morning, then to see the University of Tennessee play Marshall tomorrow afternoon.

Sunday? Who knows, but I'll probably cut my lawn after church, then maybe go see a movie.

Studying, mostly just kicking back for the weekend and doing whatever since I'm at home. Probably watching movies or just killing time on the computer.
