Ok, so I found a bug that if you use a cookie to login (Checking "Remember login") you will not be logged in unless you go somewhere else on the blog. I can't track down where the problem is, but it's easy enough to work around.

Today, I figured out how to get Mac OS X to login users authenticated by our Windows 2003 domain. Though, I have a problem that Kerberos is used to authenticate. I need to find a way so the AD Kerberos configuration will live peacefully with the Iowa State Kerberos configuration for authenticating email and other campus services while logged into the domain. Some more work needs to be done.

The mug meeting had really poor attendance. Those who showed up were me, Colin, Brandon, and Sheng. The only non-officer was Colin. It was pretty cool to play around with the AirPort Express, playing out iTunes music to the room speakers while not plugged into anything. We discussed some ways to run a programming contest this fall and what to do about getting a club logo that Sheng was supposed to be doing for the past year or so.

Tomorrow, I have no plans as of yet. I really want to go out and do something. Adrienne seems to have fallen off the face of the earth. She hasn't been to church.

The weekend after next I will be going up to Okoboji. Gaila will probably be coming down at that time to hang out. Sunday I will be heading back, most likely via Meri to check out her new digs and hang out for a bit.

Right now Mel is learning how fun it is to put in interesting nuggets of wisdom and humor into my quotes section. Perhaps you will see some of them up there. If you want to add your own quote, you may. I will get an e-mail and I have to approve the quote before it actually gets into the rotation, for obvious reasons.

Well, that's about all I have now.

I haven't fallen off the face of the earth..I have just had a lot on my mind and I need to do some MAJOR thinking and I have not been feeling very well lately, lots of kids at work are sick and so that means I get sick as well. That is all..Later! :)

I'm not sure if you saw the IM message I left while you were away like a week or so ago. You're welcome to stop; I'm pretty sure I can make it back in time. I recommend that you call and check just to make sure.

Glad to hear you talked to Fritz and that conversation was helpful. Let me know if you'd like to discuss the subjects sometime. We can chat while you're up here if you want.

For some reason the main content section of the table is below the menu bar rather than to the right of it -- it looks like it's in another row. It could just be my browser. The styles took a little while to load, but of course I'm on dial-up. Yay for having Internet though!

Take care! I'll see you next weekend!

Adrienne, I hope you figure things out and feel better soon.

Meri, I did get that IM. It is interesting that you mention the formatting problem. The problem is IE on windows. I found that a similar problem happens on the latest version of IE for Windows when the table at the top of the blog is set to 100% width. To fix it, at least for that version of IE, I had to make the width 99%. Apparently your browser has a more advanced version of that bug. I don't intend on fixing it as I don't have access to that version of IE and my code validates. If you want, I may be able to bring over a copy of the latest version of FireFox for Windows 98 ;-)

Sure, bring FireFox. I'm getting really tired of using EditPlus and Netscape 4.
