Serving Servers


We had an interesting talk by our very own on-site technician. We visited Chris in our server room where he gave us a rundown of the six Sunridge servers.  He also covered topics like: how the firewall works; the operation of the switches; rooting; and explained our new 6KVA Uninterrupted Power Supply which maintains power to our server in the event of a power failure.  There were plenty of questions asked – one of the most popular questions was “on which machine is scadsys kept?” For those of you who don’t know, scadsys is the software which we use for – amongst other things – to record detention point.  I think we might have a prospective saboteur in our midst.

Thank you Chris

We wore red tonight just for kicks. We'll be coming to our next SCC meeting in pajamas. That should make for a cool photograph.

Back in the lab we looked at some of the animations the club members had to make using Kerpoof. It was clear that some spent quite a bit of time making their animations. Here are a few of the animations for you to go have a look at. Some of them have sound and others not. Simply click on the creator's name.
