3/31    I want a second line for fax but alas my studio apt. does not
        seem to have the inside wall wiring.  Is there a way to get virtual
        fax or fax mailbox, where I can download incoming fax to my computer?
        \_ ok I googled and found some service, but would appreciate comments
           from users of these kind of service.
           \_ support your fellow Cal alumni's company:
              http://www.packetel.com
              \_ funny I was trying to sign up with it without knowing its
                 cal connection, but alas it has run out of # in 650 area code.
                 Any other suggestion?  Or they are willing to give an alumni
                 a reserve number?
                 \_ Bummer, I just ordered more #s, they will come in
                    couple of days...too many orders these days.  Can you
                    wait a couple of days or just get a different area
                    code?
                    \_ Is it really just a couple (like 2) of days? Or can
                       I change to a 650 # later.
        \_ http://www.efax.com
           \_ they charge $.10 per outgoing fax. Anyone know of a service that
              charges something like $25/mo that will let me send ~3000 fax/mo.
              the local chamber of commerce asked me if i knew of any solution.
              or... i can have them buy something like Symantec WinFax. any
              recommendations?

9/24    How come changing my shell using ldapmodify (chsh doesn't work) doesn't
        work either? ldapsearch and getent show the new shell but I still get
        the old shell on login.
        \_ Scratch that, it magically took my new shell now. WTF?

5/8     Hello everyone!  This is Josh Hawn, CSUA Tech VP for Spring 2012.
        About 2 weeks ago, someone brought to my attention that our script
        to periodically merge /etc/motd.public into /etc/motd wasn't
        running.  When I looked into it, the cron daemon was running, but
        there hadn't been any root activity in the log since April 7th.  I
        looked into it for a while, but got lost in other things I was

11/16   We'll be taking all CSUA machines offline in the near future for a Soda
        Hall server room reorganization (we're being moved to a neighboring
        server cabinet).  Downtime will hopefully be minimal.  --jordan
        \_ Thanks for all your work keeping the machines running!  It's
           been awesome having soda actually working again.
        \_ Update:  this is tentatively scheduled for Saturday afternoon.

8/9     So I just found out that an old college friend of mine lost her
        four month old daughter to SIDS. What is the correct response here?
        \_ "Did she sleep with her belly?" and "Did you breastfeed?"

11/21   Lifehacker's recommending Dreamhost as a personal web hosting service.
        Apart from csua, who do you guys use? --erikred
        \_ What do you want to use it for? Do you need CGI or PHP?  My
           brother worked for Dreamhost and said they are unethical. In
           fact, he sued them. This refers to their treatment of customers
           and employees both. I don't know who  or what "Lifehacker" is,

11/1    I'm moving from a home in Fremont to another home within the same ZIP
        code in Fremont, and AT&T customer service says I cannot transfer my
        DSL service because DSL is not available at my new home.  Is that BS?
        Are they just trying to push me to subscribe to their more expensive
        U-verse service?  I'm not asking for any lightening-speed connection.
