RMG176 - WebDAV. Certificates and FrontRow-feed fixed
I've been working on an interesting server install the last couple of weeks. The client wanted a a way to provide a way for his clients to upload and download files from a private secure share. Except for the new Xserve, all the computers involved are running some form of Windows. WebDAV is cool. It's a way to provide a shared folder to clients over the web server ports. Thanks to my buddy Mike for showing me the WebDAV way.
The client also needed to insure that the site was secure. I installed a certificate from an authority and learned a lesson about chained certificates. I pretty much figured out certificates on my own but it took a few days.
This podcast includes "Hell and Scissors", a brilliant tune from The Foghorn String Band, an equally brilliant group of musicians from Portland Oregon in the US.
Speaking of brilliant, some cool newness from Apple this week. We'll talk more about it later, but my first impression of the new product announcements is that FrontRow is the beginning of a paradigm shift in home entertainment. A lot of folks pay big bucks for a cable connection to just view one or two shows a week. At $1.99/show from the iTunes Music Store, buying TV shows might be a bargain for certain people.
Exploring the Wild Divine is an interesting video game/bio feedback system/alternative reality environment and a very interesting new genre in computer based entertainment.
Sad news from Walt who reported that his hard drive just stopped working without weird sounds, or any warning at all. Remember, back it up!
