An update to my previous post about setting up your own web server and using DNS to get your PS3 on the PSN with the old firmware: it seems as if Sony has “fixed” this little loophole that made our PS3s once again functional sometime yesterday (2010-04-14).
No word yet on re-enabling this feature without upgrading to the latest firmware.
No I am not dead and I am back with a Mac. So how about that? I definitely (probably said this before) want to get back into blogging but I ran into something tonight that is pretty irritating. So much so that I had to fire up the ol’ blog account and get to writing.
Now, I’m pretty sure I’m doing something wrong here but none the less I want to post this up and (hopefully) get some input on the situation. Here’s the deal. I want to mount (via Samba on an Ubuntu box named ubuntu1) a shared directory that is named test. I want to mount it in a directory inside my home in a directory named “test” on OS X. Why is it such a problem? Is it even possible to mount a Samba share this way? Note that /Users/mike/test exists but /Users/mike/test1/ doesn’t.

Not sure if I’ve mentioned before (not according to the site search) but I am not a fan of Myspace. At all. I grudgingly do keep an account open on there for the people who have not or will not migrate to Facebook no matter how much I beg. I tend to only log in to view messages that people send me. However little did I know a surprise was waiting for me when I logged in to check the latest message I received.
