| 02:03.59 | brlcad | ibot: ibot |
| 02:03.59 | ibot | i guess ibot is not a help system |
| 02:04.03 | brlcad | heh |
| 02:04.49 | brlcad | ~infobot |
| 02:04.49 | ibot | rumour has it, infobot is me, http://infobot.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/infobot/ // The original infobot is no more, it has been replaced by the latest version of blootbot, accompanied by a rename back to infobot // apt/ibot/infobot/purl is now an infobot run by TimRiker |
| 02:10.48 | maths22 | I have had some fun asking ibot questions, but I was not sure what it acutally was. |
| 02:11.17 | brlcad | there's a lot of nice little tricks she has up her sleeve |
| 02:11.40 | brlcad | basic math, to actions, to info, all customizable |
| 02:11.56 | maths22 | now that I know where the source is, I can look at it and do some fun things. |
| 02:12.04 | maths22 | I like it's response to ~ask |
| 02:12.08 | brlcad | ~lart maths22 |

| 02:15.11 | ibot | A "pastebin" is a web-based service where you should paste anything over 3 lines so you don't flood the channel.

| 02:15.45 | brlcad | ~factoids |
| 02:15.45 | ibot | factoids are information that ibot can learn and then reply with. "/msg ibot help" for more info. |

| 17:16.39 | brlcad | that's particularly relevant to those of us that ssh in and connect via screen+irssi |
| 17:17.18 | brlcad | the old server is still bzflag.bz for the time being, so can join that way but at some point, you should all migrate to logging in via brlcad.org and holding a screen session there |

| 18:52.57 | brlcad | ``Erik: that's because your MX (and only yours apparently) goes to bz.bzflag.bz |

| 18:54.16 | brlcad | as far as the language goes, it's hard to beat the original C book |
| 18:54.22 | brlcad | but yeah, doesn't cover the "other stuff" |

| 19:49.50 | brlcad | *your* MX record points to a bz.bzflag.bz address, so mail to erik@brlcad goes to .bz |
| 19:51.19 | brlcad | i'd have to change your mx record to be a different alias (or perhaps remove it altogether so it delivers to brlcad.org) |
| 19:51.42 | brlcad | maths22: in no small part to all your efforts, great work :) |
| 19:52.10 | maths22 | thanks. |
| 19:52.17 | brlcad | I did have to just upgrade once again (there've been two security-fix drupal updates since you migrated), but it went mostly smooth :) |
| 19:52.34 | maths22 | Minor drupal upgrades are easy. |
| 19:52.45 | maths22 | The major ones are the ones that take the effort. |
| 19:52.48 | brlcad | it was also ignoring our synopsis markers, fixed that |

| 19:53.43 | brlcad | when you write a story, you can tell it how much goes onto the main page with a <!--break--> marker |

| 19:57.01 | brlcad | also was some apparent problem with a mediawiki extension and one other drupal module, iirc, but all figured out in a couple hours |
| 19:57.11 | brlcad | would have made a good gci task ;) |
| 20:07.04 | brlcad | ``Erik: ah, I see my terminology (or understanding) was off -- the MX record how i've set it up goes to our DNS host (zoneedit) which in term forwards as specified (so the forwards stay private/unpublished) |

| 20:08.42 | ``Erik | saw mail5.zoneedit.com and mail6.zoneedit.com listed as the mx records when I did a 'dig brlcad.org mx', thought it was weird... any reason to use their forward service instead of using the machine and enabling sendmail .forward files? |
| 20:09.59 | brlcad | originally didn't provide mail |
| 20:10.02 | brlcad | only aliases |
| 20:10.12 | ``Erik | ah, legacy |
| 20:10.36 | brlcad | still have a lack of faith in my own ability to secure sendmail/qmail with confidence for outbound |
| 20:10.54 | brlcad | why it was (supposed to be) inbound only |
| 20:11.22 | brlcad | still have my doubts that we're secure there even on .bz |
| 20:28.46 | maths22 | Oh well. If you have any other problems like that, feel free to let me know and I will try to fix it. |
| 20:31.39 | maths22 | by the way, any old gallery links will no longer work. |
| 20:32.19 | maths22 | Gallery 3 uses a different system for URLS, and it is at brlcad.org/gallery3 |
| 20:33.01 | brlcad | any reason we can't just copy it? |
| 20:33.25 | brlcad | (assuming we move the old one out of the day) |
| 20:33.28 | brlcad | s/day/way/ |
| 20:34.21 | maths22 | I can move it. I will do that now; the urls are still different |
| 20:44.32 | maths22 | i have moved it. I fixed the link on the drupal site to point to the new location as well |
