All about ports

Ports, ports, ports. All they talk about are the port numbers.

ICA-TCP Port: 1494
License Server Port: 27000
Web Interface: 80
IMA: 2152/2153
SSL: 443

Is that all?

And of course:
Oracle: 1521

fotopages.com is down?

Oh no. Something must have happened to fotopages.com. It gives

db error
Too many connections
And I thought it was because I couldn't access it from the training lab...
Training has been fun! At least this times it is not one of the courses in the Microsoft Cirriculum.

A break from work

Great! I´m going to have a whole week of training next week. And that means one whole week of absence in the office.

Hmm..while I´m writing this, the Ops people are talking about a vacation in Pangkor Island. Hey, I will go!

Who would have known that "DisableUserInstalls" is the answer?

Do this at a terminal server:

Add this value: "DisableUserInstalls": DWORD = 1 to this key below:

HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer

And you solve the problem that has been plaguing us for months! Why didn't anyone work on this? Why wasted months of man hours to find workarounds?

The end is the beginning is the end

I've been telling a friend of mine: "The end of one thing is the start of something better to come". What he has been going through is worries about finding a new job since his contract with his previous company ended last month. And things were not going well for him; his mood was going like a roller coaster ride, although what I experienced mostly is low. Surprisingly contagious was that he's affecting everyone around him. Days such as these were dull to say the least.

I hope he will be fine. And hope that all things will go well in the days to come for him.

My World is Less Colorful...

I am having problem recognizing some of the colors. How bad is it? Not really...the only inconvenience caused so far is not able to see some of the laser beam shot from a Sony laser pointer that comes with a LCD projector. Not a big problem, just that when Ravi was explaining things and pointing the screen with the pointer, I couldn't tellwhat he's looking at.

It's REALLY not a big problem...RED GREEN BLUE

I'm "google-able"!

I just discovered something interesting this morning.

Enter "Wong Shan Yung" in www.google.com search box and viola! The first entry shows my photo on KSC Photography Club fotopages.

Do you know?

Do you know how many [traffic speed slowdown] yellow stripes there are in Cyberjaya? Well, specifically on the long 3-km winding road into Cyberjaya.

I can start counting when I pass through them and let all of you know later. So stay tuned...

Mobile Phone

On my way to work this morning, I saw a man driving a Toyota Avanza with both his arms on top of the steering wheel, a PDA phone in his left hand, and a pen in his right hand, eyes on both the road and the phone.

Did I say PDA phone is so much harder to make calls?

Something is amiss...

It's quiet, it's dark, and it's cold~.

天上的小星星说:“不要再闹啦! 快去睡觉.”

No this is not a riddle but just take it with you.
