The Things that I broke

I did a very stupid thing.

For some strange reason, my ability to ssh into my server is reliant on the firewall setting the outgoing TOS to 0x0 (normal service). Stupidly, I logged into the server and stopped the firewall, instantly shutting down ssh leaving me no way to get back in and put the firewall back up.It took a long time, but through some very strange and convoluted method, I managed to get back in. This invovlved a hacked telnet daemon and client, some cunningness with samba, and a hope that php wouldn't die. Oddly enough, it worked. It's not broken any more. Other things still are though.

For the rest of everyone, I’m going to Wales! Tomorrow! Because it’s cold there and they have a beach!!!!!!!!!!!!!
