Linux Networking

Finally, can finish networking assignment that took up my 3-weeks-time and made me miss my cousin's wedding party.. So many things have been sacrificed for this assignment. But I did learn a lot things about networking.. especially Linux Networking.

This assignment taught me how to program the router. Frankly speaking, the first time I saw first router was in this networking class.. so pathetic, right?? IT student but saw router the first time on the final semester.. I just knew it that we had to program the router using PC. I thought router is just a router that already had built-in program once they are manufactured. This subject really opens my eyes, networking had a lot interesting things to learn..

I also learned how to configure some services on Linux OS,using Ubuntu 7.10. To get better understanding, I even had Ubuntu installed on my laptop. It's my first time dealing with Linux codes but these stuffs were so interesting.. although I found this Ubuntu made my laptop slower than ever, made me reformat my laptop and made me reboot several time because of it hang almost all the time.. hehe..

By the way, the most stressful thing is when I tried to install OpenVPN on my laptop. It was very hard to make it run.. so many problems I have faced.. But accompanying by some Indonesian-language-blog and some books that I have borrowed from library.. Finally, could get it running ;)
