Good WYSIWYG editor for mediawiki 1.18
I found a good looking WYSIWYG mediawiki editor called extension:WYSIWYG here http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:WYSIWYG Unfortunately, this version is not supported on mediawiki version 1.18 yet. I tested it myself; it really does not work on 1.18. In the extension’s discussions I found that someone has modified it and posted it to: http://wiki.linuxmatter.com/index.php/File:WYSIWYG.zip I have tested it. It works fine with version 1.18

IPSec blocking all network traffic
We could not ping one of our servers. I looked at the event logs and found this entry: Description: The IPSec driver has entered Block mode. IPSec will discard all inbound and outbound TCP/IP network traffic that is not permitted by boot-time IPSec Policy exemptions. Really strange! I did not enable any IPsec policies, the firewall was also disabled on this server. So how did this happen? Well, the server ran out of space and somehow a registry entry got corrupt. Take a look at this KB article. The fix worked for us. Actually the whole key was missing. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\IPSec\Policy\Local When I registered the DLL , it re-created the key. Reboot…

Black logon screen on Windows Server 2003?
So, some of our windows servers were showing a logon screen which was blacked out. I mean the logon screen was either totally black or parts of it were blacked out. I still could logon because I could see the cursor and I knew the fields but it sure was a pain! At first I thought it was a video driver issue; but a co-worker showed me this KB article. Basically the subkeys under this registry key somehow get corrupt and need to be recreated: HKEY_USERS\.Default\Control Panel\Colors

Bad luck with Impatiens
Looks like it is going to be last last year again. 🙁 Well it has been 20 days since I planted a batch of seeds. It has the bottom heater, lights, dome, everything they need……….still out of the the 72 “coins” nothing has sprouted….not even one! I guess I should check the temperature with a thermometer. I bet they are too warm. check out an update which I posted later

Planted more seeds today
Planted these annuals today: Marigold Shasta Daisy [10-20 days] Snapdragon [7-30 days] Petunia Horizon Yellow [7-21 days] Petunia Dolcissima Fragolino [7-21 days] Petunia Wave Hybrid [7-21 days] These were planted peat ‘coins’ and with a heater mat under them. The whole thing is a Jiffy greenhouse pro.
