What did I learn this weekend?

Running races are participating events and triathlon are competition events. I shouldn’t just participate. Next time I have to compete if I don’t want to end up in the wrong 95% percentile.

Bottom line: I better train for the triathlon next year, and in the meantime, let’s throw a marathon here and there.

Do a search of “tethering the iphone 3.1 at&t” and you get 102,000 hits and the first 10 are worth nothing. Why? Because they only tell you that Apple did break the tethering over USB/bluetooth for the iPhone 3GS version 3.1.2… so what am I writing about then? I am writing about “Enable Tethering for the Iphone 3GS” from SiNful iPhone Repo, one of lots of applications in Cydia (yes my iphone is jailbroken, but it is my hardware).

Now, my iPhone gives me lots of download speed. I was controlling my home server over logmein, over the iPhone.

So, forget Google and choose Cydia.

;)

Do I understand it? Nope but works, so what do I care.

I don’t know if I ever talked about HFS. HFS is an http file server,
open source. Coupled with stunnel it is a very robust server. But the
server wouldn’t let me user port 483 for secure connections. Say hello
to vmplayer. I did install win7 rc7100 in an empty image, install
stunnel and HFS and because they are in the same network, I can use
shared folders. I cannot do that with freeNAS.

So, what is the address of the https server? Knowledge comes in a need
to know basis ;)

So, what is the benefit of port 483 over 80? Encryption. The fact that
I want to share a couple of files with friends and family can make me
look like an uploader to the RIAA. Another benefit is that Eulalia
doesn’t need to carry a thumbdrive anymore because she can upload and
download from her special place in the 1TB hdd at any given time.

So look for HFS on the web. I am donating today.

Pablo se ha roto un metatarso o falange en el pie derecho jugando a Super Mario Tennis Wii edition. El jura y rejura que no salto ni le dio una patada a nada.

Ahora no hay bici, ni futbol ni nada. Y encima, tampoco hay Wii porque se nos ido al carajo el lector de DVDs… Darn it!

Pablo deberia estar bien en unas 3 semanas, y entonces, al ataque con la bici de nuevo.

Carlos

Happy as a clam!

Ok, I have managed to set a secure server at home. Last week I was able to set the http file server. This week is secure and encrypted! And the connections are point to point :)

Ouff.

Be nice

Los videos vendran mas tarde, cuando por fin domine iMovie’09

Pero Pablo y Marta ya estan circulando en los trails de The Woodlands. Para Marta no es un problema, porque ha heredado una bici con marchas de Willa y casi cada dia va al cole en bici. Pero Pablo, antes de entrar en los trails apenas sabia girar (pero si frenar y derrapar (?)). Pero dentro de los trails se lo han pasado de miedo, y ha llovido, y mientras ellos iban en bici yo corria al lado, para poder controlar mas las desgracias. Y nos lo hemos pasado muy bien, asi que la proxima vez… toda la familia.

Ok, Ahora tengo un iPhone, pero que puedo hacer con el?
Primero, VPN a casa, nada de permitir que AT&T o Jassager controlen mis e-mails, asi que gracias Windows y Hak5, ahora hago un VPN a casa. Eso quiere decir, que gracias a Blacksn0w, ahora puedo hacer ftp a mi iPhone desde cualquier lugar, porque el iPhone tiene una direccion IP dentro de la red de casa. ?Que mas? Le he instalado el emulador de vt-100, que me permite abrir un xterm en el iPhone y puedo correr nmap y ver que hay en casa o fuera de ella corriendo y que tiene puertos abiertos.

He instalado metasploit, que aunque no es facil de usar, me da muchas ganas de aprender a usarlo, porque en el pasado ha habido un monton de maquinas en casa que no estabn al dia. Y aun no he atacado el router desde dentro ;)

Por fin he instalado un HTTP File Server! Despues de pasarme un anho viendo como poner un FTP server, y a traves de Hak5 descubro que rejetto.com tiene un HTTP file server que es mas facil de usar que el iPhone o la Wii.

Y Windows 7 RC7100 mola un monton, igual que mi Mac OSX 10.5.8 corriendo en un Atom 330 (dual core!) a 25W con 2GB de RAM. En cuanto ponga aqui los slideshows de iPhoto, se os va a caer la baba.

Ya se me acabaron las palabras tecnicas!

Sed buenos,

Carlos

Y Eulalia y Fernanda no han cambiado un pelo!

“Science Fiction is the only literature worth stealing”

Or so he says, but then he releases all his books on the Internet for
free!

http://www.craphound.com/

And if you want to start with one book then pick “Little Brother”. And
because he has every format in there you can read it in your phone,
iPhone, blackberry, kindle and so on. If it has a screen (Nintendo DS
wink wink) you can read it. And then head to Borders to get your
hardcopy.

Cheers and happy readings,

Carlos

Y la cara que puso cuando vio su iPod rosa!

Esta vez no he comprado un seguro. A ver que pasa. Pero la gordi estaba feliz, feliz!

Sed buenos,

Carlos
