• Progress Update

  Howdy, Just to to let everybody know that Qbalt still is being worked on. It's taken me far, far longer than I thought it would, unfortunately, but progress is coming along. I've been close to an initial release for sometime now, but I'm keen on getting things mostly right for the first release. This means things won't be as featureful as they actually are, but people shouldn't have any problems. I'm also delaying things a bit, so when Qbalt is released, I will have time to actively work on it. Right now, that's unfortunately not possible. For almost two months now I've had an early 'alpha' version of Qbalt installed on three production machines, each hosting anywhere from 5 to 25 websites. I've discovered all sorts of wierd bugs, but they're all getting sorted out. In any case, things are certainly usable. Just to let people know about features; the most capable machine is a do-all box for one small ISP; the machine's doing mail [postfix/courier-pop], web [apache/php4/mod_perl], radius [freeradius], qos/shaping/traffic monitoring [iptables/iproute2], ftp [proftpd], everything is all intergrated on the web interface, and end-users that don't know a whole lot about how things tick seem to be having no problems at all administrating the machine. I'd suggest it's even perhaps easier to understand than the Cobalt interface :-) I'll be writing up a bunch of documentation before the release, describing how exactly I propose the interface/modules should be expanded on; I've had emails from a bunch of people keen to help with development. The initial release will be an ISO, both installable on Cobalt hardware Restore-CD style, and on white boxes, with a somewhat stable interface that people can hopefully start using. CVS will contain the up-to-the-minute interface core/modules, which won't be half as stable, but I'd love others input. Some interesting links; Project for a standard'ish x86 BIOS on the Cobalt's: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cobalt-rom/ Instructions for installing Debian onto a Cobalt remotely "Restore CD" style (requires a running Linux system, though): http://cobalt.iceblink.org/debian/debian-cobalt-howto.txt R
