Network update

Server anomaly
I had a strange problem emerge this past weekend where my server couldn't connect to the web via Firefox. I couldn't even use Server Admin to connect to the server. I restarted a bunch of times and even precariously used changeip to try changing the IP address of the server, stupid in hind sight. I ended up changing the DNS servers to ones that were listed from my router and changed the server listing from Server Admin to its IP address. Whatever I did, it worked. I don't like the powerlessness of not knowing where to look for solutions. I don't know how to read the logs beyond a superficial level, so I don't really know where to go to fix the problems.

WPA TKIP
I don't know why I didn't do this earlier, but I changed my router from WEP encryption to 120 bit WPA TKIP encryption. I wasn't able to enter in my 503? bit passkey, so I had to choose a 20-digit key instead. I'll limit the MAC addresses next ensure that no one will be able to access my IP address.

FTP admin
I just tried to access my net2ftp admin page and was twarted by the login. I have no idea what the password is! I'll have to change that this evening.

eDrive
I installed a TechTools eDrive on my PowerBook so I don't have to rely on my newly created iPod "toolbox" for maintenance. I had troubles installing iDefrag though since I wasn't able to resolve permissions on the eDrive to allow the license key to be copied into the /Library/Application Support folder.

Buffalo 80GB Protogo Drive
Since I made an eDrive for my PowerBook, I thought I'd do the same for my MacBook. Well technically I can't make an eDrive since I have Bootcamp installed, but I have a Buffalo external USB 2.0 drive that wasn't doing anything, so it's now a portable Intel-only toolbox with lots of storage space on it (about 73 GB).
