About time to write here…

We’re done with the Network Security lectures (the last recording is being uploaded right now). Marian spoke on firewalls, DrFrancky gave a good lecture on social engineering. Monday there will be some consultations, Thursday the second test, there’s one check of course papers, and we’re done.

I read “Light at the end of the barrel” by Yuz Aleshkovsky in one sitting – great book, there’s nothing more to be said :)

Thursday in the lecture my laptop’s hard drive gave away, so I spent Friday at Vlado’s to have it replaced. Through the night I left it to test the new drive, because there were was some suspicion that it might be because of the interface – I’ll go through it for a few more days. They also replaced the keyboard (the old one was pretty worn out and a bit broken) and now it’s really weird – the keys aren’t worn out :)
(it was extremely weird to spend a day without the laptop)

The work week was medium hell, even Friday my phone kept ringing, although I had no way to od anything.

I also had one really idiotic encounter – I got asked to host aniventure.com, I created an account, etc., they tested it, and the only thing left was to move the domain. I sent freedns.ludost.net and eos.dobrihc.net for nameservers, and my people forward me the following response (translated as close as possible to the original):

Hello,

these are no NS server :(

URL of dns servers start with ns.some_thing.com (net, org or oth.)
Please, send us similar, to redirect the domain.
They have to begin with - NS !!!

Regards,

I answer – these are working nameservers, I use them for a ton of things, after which the next forwarded mail is:

If there's something to particularize, please give him our phones!

+359889xxxxxx
+3592xxxxxxx

I repeat this is not DNS! These are name of servers, but not NAME
SERVERS.
We need the dns-es to configure the domain.

So I call in the morning the guy, who tells me – ” We configured it, we saw that your other sites are like this” (domains, not sites, but whatever). I ask – OK, and is it written anywhere how the nameservers must be called – he said some other crap, after which I just hung up. No comment…
