DNS-DIY is a DNS control system. After 3 months run, it hosts 12,471 zones currently. And the number is increasing everyday. I believe it is able to host 100,000 zones smoothly under current hardware configuration. DNS-DIY accepts domain names registered by OnlineNIC only for business policy.

Installed and tested Spambayes on one of the production email server of our company. It works very well. About 30,000 (around 1GByte) junk emails are filtered per day. The email server hosts more than 2,500 domains and 30,000 mailboxes. Currently, we use global spam recognition database and only drop the very certain junk emails. I think it’s better to setup database for each mailbox and provide an user friendly control panel.

Installed familiar 0.7 stable GPE Linux on my brother’s iPAQ 3870. It looks much better than before. Finally, I configurated the dial-up GPRS over bluetooth successfully. (I’ve broken the bluetooth’s chip of my 3870. And it is unable to be fixed :-< .) Resources, HOW-TO Handhelds.org

Do you hate spam? I do. I get hundreds of spam a day! I’ve tried several methods to stop spam. Outlook rules, procmail regex filters, black/white lists and others. But all of them are not clever enough. After tried SpamBayes, I believe the filters can kill spam. I’ve installed a spam filter plug-in (SpamBayes) for my Outlook 2002. I just gave 10 spam emails and 10 non-spam emails to the filter.

My brother comes to Xiamen for a few days. His laptop and my desktop have to share the single Internet connection. The laptop has a combo wireless adapter and mine has a usb wireless adapter. There’s no access point at my house. We tried to use ad-hoc mode. First I tried to use windows 2000 as the gateway. The connection between the laptop and the desktop is ok. But the laptop was fail to connect to the Internet either using NAT nor routing directly.

I installed the KDE on Cygwin today. It looks good. But it works slowly and costs too many memory on my PC (PIII-800 512M). It should be better if KDevelop has been ported to Cygwin. Cygwin Cygwin/XFree86 KDE on Cygwin
