2024-11-10 I now own a legendary Power Mac G5 and I love it to play around with this Beast of a Computer. Link to Articles
2024-10-23 I want to run a PETSCII compatible BBS to login with my C=64, but it is not as trivial as it sounds. And yes, I want to run it on my home linux server, not on real c=64 hardware because I am in doubt it could crash my vintage hardware. no files
2024-10-18 I created a list of working C=64 PETSCII compatible BBSses around the globe. You can see my list here. The BBS List
2024-10-15 Removed the static HTML generator plugin because it doesn't worked well; no other things to report. no files
2024-09-08 Installed a static HTML Plugin for my CMS, so the content should be delivered really fast. This is important because my content isnt chagning really often, but the small arm server is on its limit. With the static cache it shoud run like charme no files
2024-08-21 I just updated my linux server os to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS lates incarnation. Beside that I tried to compile the 4.1.15 Kernel to a newer version, but it is sheerly impossible Jammy Jellyfish

2024-06-06 Wrote an article on how to update Windows 2000 to the latest available patch, but than found out there is an ISO file with all the updates with an installer. Read the article here.
2024-06-04 Tweaked the server, especially php-fpm, nginx etc. to drive this website faster than before. I hope I've done a good job and the sites overall performance is better than before. No Files.
2024-05-22 This Website is now also available via SSL Encryption and https but I prefer to use http, because this is what vintage computers speak, when they speak. https / http
2024-05-10 Hello World. nothing
2024-03-20 We uploaded a bunch of MS-Dos application, tools and so on for Net, BBS, Graphic etc., pp., you can find it at our FTP-Server. We put an index.txt in every folder with explanation of every tool, zip and exe. All for MS-Dos
2024-03-20 Just added a lot of "Net" Files for Windows 16 Bit, aka Win3.1X. You can find it via FTP or WEB-FTP. You can find an index.txt in every folder, explaning the content with a short description for every program. All for Win3.1X
2024-03-15 Finally I managed to display the Files of the PUB FTP Server as Web Directory. You can find the link in the Navigation or you click here. No Files
2024-03-13 Our BBS is up and running. Look at the corresponding Page. It is at the moment very stock, no custom configurations are made but I look forward to customize it. And here it is: telnet://thafaker.crabdance.com:8088 No FIles

2023-10-09 The Drive for the Newsserver Leafnode ran out of Inodes, while enough megabytes where free. This is a problem occours wehn a lot of snall files are saved. For every saving it needs space and indodes for metadata. if there are a lot of small files the inodes are out. I needed to backup the whole drive, reformat it with a higher count of inodes because now I know I want to store the usenet on it and recopy everything. But it took me a while to figure out what happens here. Read More
2023-09-29 No News at all but the Amiga 1200 with Turbocard is working great again. Only the FD0 Diskdrive is producing an Error in Amiga OS, while a booting from disk directly is working perfectly. No Files at all
2023-09-02 updated that website with macromedia dreamweaver on an iMac G3 - just for the lulz nothing
2023-01-20 Finally I made it. I compiled a new Kernel 4.1.15 for my Utilite Pro Linux ARM Device.
uname -a: Linux utilite 4.1.15-cm-fx6-8.0-g13fe6a7c3707-dirty #7 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jan 17 13:52:01 CET 2023 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux
Here is the HowTo
2022-10-24 Still unsuccessful. Like my entire life. I don't get it to recompile a kernel with all the stuff I know and I downloaded (dtbs, dts, standard configs etc. pp.) wich will work with my Compulab Utilite Pro. Here is a How To to compile. Here is the stuff (ftp). Here is the Kernel i used!
2022-10-23 I try to compile a newer Version of the LINUX Kernel than 3.14 is because Apache 2 is not working with older Kernels anymore. The feature of /dev/random is since then a part of the kernel and Apache with Version 2.4.52 which is now part of Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is using this and won't start if it can't find this feature. I don't know if there is other software that needs a newer Kernel Version, but since yet I came good over the time. NO?!
somewhere 2017 THIS SERVER LIVES SINCE 2017! Endlich habe ich es geschafft und das gebraucht erworbene Utilite Pro so bearbeitet, dass ich a) ein Ubuntu Linux 14.04. installieren konnte und b) auf einen passenden Kernel dazu. Nun bootet mein ARM-Device und ich kann es endlich für gewisse interne Server-Dienste nutzen. Even No!
