G’day everyone. My name is Henry and I’m from LT where I am working in IT projects (currently within EU structural funds). I’ve been working in gov and private sectors and got a pretty decent perspective of how IT related decisions are made while designing organization’s IT infrastructure. Since RHEL is one of the first words you’d hear from CEO or dept. head, thus I’ve decided that having better knowledge about this trend is a great advantage for further career. My goal is to obtain RHCE certificate, therefore I participate in this RH project.

Besides technical decisions part of my work requires to deal with organizations that participate in public procurement competitions. If some of my knowledge and experience could help spread Fedora within this region I would be honored.

Area of Interest

I've got an own 1U rack server housed in Frankfurt/Germany, which is my "remote desktop", working and development system. So there are an Apache web server (httpd), FTP server (vsftpd), OpenSSH (sshd), mail services (Sendmail, MIMEDefang & UW IMAP), Network Time Protocol synchronisation (ntpd) and SELinux, too.

As the machine is a HP ProLiant DL360 G3 server, lm_sensors unfortunately doesn't support (yet?) the used ServerWorks GC-LE chipset, which is the reason, that I've got to merge and integrate needed things myself from the closed source HP Advanced Server Management. But there's still hope for me, because a working patch supporting HP SmartArrays in smartmontools was finished in April 2006 - finally after a very long time.

For monitoring the system, I'm using HotSaNIC. It is completely written in Perl and I wrote an own module to get the temperature and fan information from the non-standardized HP software. Another important point (or interest) is SELinux which had to be modified in the past a couple of times for example to support the very useful pam_abl.

The textbased e-mail client mutt(1), an IRC to other chat networks gateway called BitlBee together with the terminal based IRC client Irssi and screen(1) are completely fulfilling my need of "remote desktop" as already mentioned above. It's enough for me to read or write an e-mail (or even an instant message) from everywhere in the world and just requiring a SSH client at a computer...
