New favicon
Not that I am an artist (well, not in the common meaning of the word), but I really like my new favicon. I’m not the creator, BTW: credits go to Irilium 😉

For a couple of years I used Vmware as virtualization solution, because the alternatives weren’t at its level. I used to run Vmware to emulate a WinXP-Pro guest, with IIS, to write an ASP project for a course. Thanks god, the teacher changed his mind and let some of us code in PHP as well. Anyway, recently Vmware went crazy. Whenever I open it, it just disables my Shift and Control keys: only restarting X solves to problem.
So I switched to VirtualBox.
Good news:
Bad news:
The last issue drove me crazy. To set up networking in Virtualbox you have three choices (well, actually four, but I do not consider “cable unplugged” a choice 🙂 )
I looked for informations on the Net. No solution. So I decided to write a shell script on my own.
http://dark.asengard.net/mirror/gentoo/vboxnat.sh
(it’s so small that I release it in the public domain 😉 )
Why not? 😛 It combines my Bash and networking skills, and I like writing little tools, so… 🙂
It’s written with the Gentoo subsystem in mind, but it can be ported to other distros with little pain. It’s very easy to set up: edit the beginning of the script, substituting dark with your username and eth1 with the name of the physical interface that you use to connect to the world. Basically, it does the following:
And that’s it 🙂
UPDATE: I’ve edited and uploaded again the script to resolve the issue at comment #1. If /sbin/functions.sh is missing, wrappers functions are defined to handle the console output.
