As you can see, I have migrated my personal blog to this site. It's now here: Personal Blog. I tried a couple methods, I used Feeds and was able to easily import posts, but I couldn't figure out how to get the comments as well. After a bit of searching, I found the Wordpress Migrate module. And it worked quite well.

Just a quick note about enabling LDAP Authentication on Ubuntu 11.10.
- Just sudo apt-get install libpam-ldap.
- Fill out the configuration settings with the information you have from your LDAP directory.
- For some reason, my LDAP directory has my home directory set to be in /Users rather than /home. So I just symlinked /Users to /home.
Watch the /var/auth.log for errors, I had one where it wouldn't let a user sign in because their LDAP entry said they used the wrong shell. So I had to fix that in the LDAP entry.

So, this is just a quick note to inform any readers that I am still alive. Unfortunately, or maybe not, I have been quite busy working at Lane Community College. Thus, this site has taken the back burner.
So, we'll see if I find time to do anything here. Until then, thanks for visiting!

First, Merry Christmas! It's that time of year! Remember that it isn't all about the presents and money, Christmas is a great time to remember that Jesus was born to save us all. That's where the real joy of these Holidays comes from. :D

So, I've been doing a lot of my Drupal development at work on Windows XP. For some reason Drupal was running extremly slow. After searching off and on for a few days, I finally stumbled across the right key words to find this: http://drupal.org/node/348202
Solution: increase realpath_cache_size in php.ini to something larger. I set it to 20M. I might make it bigger, we'll see. But at least Drupal is usable for now.

My current project at work is creating a map of campus using Google Maps API. So far the experience has been decent. It's taken me about two weeks to get most of it working. Could have been less, but there were a few things I had to do to work around the API's limitations. So, here are a few of the pro's and con's I've found.

I just upgraded my graphics card. I had been using an onboard GeForce 8200, but my brother had a Radeon 4350 HD that he wasn't using. So I brought it home with me, and installed it tonight. Here are some impressions between my Vista 32 bit install, and my Ubuntu Lucid Lynx install.

Hey! Yet again, DavidReagan.net get's a new look. Drupal Gardens is giving away free beta keys to their Drupal site building service. I signed up for one, and a few days later they were nice enough to send one to me. It's pretty impressive what they've created. They make the creation of a Drupal site practically painless. Go check out this video. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what else they add as time goes by.
