So I actually pondered what my priorities are for Scummbox.org. And I put them in my .plan.

No mail.
Plan:
scummbox.org priorities:
* Upgrade to new OpenSSH package.
* Check out new Samba (patched security flaw)
* Consider upgrading to Mandrake 9.1 (newer packages)
* MORE STORAGE
This is rapidly becoming a must, though smbmounting files off the 80gb drive in my workstation seems to have fixed a lot of that.
* More RAM
192mb is just sorta sad.
* User Quotas
Definatly a need currently. Hopefully a provider change will alleviate the need for this.
Lesser Things To Ponder:
* Consider installing/configuring Apache
Doesn't make much sense currently... port 80 is blocked by Sympatico
* Consider new provider
This is more for when I move out... Look into a corporate Rogers package
* Get rid of the Linksys Router
It screws with SSH-based communications (proven via Google search by Hellsop). Look into Netgear.
* Ponder Multihoming scummbox and installing routing software on it
This would eliminate the need for a router, period.
So does anyone (that reads that) have any ideas/comments? I need all the help I can get!
