On trying to add a new OpenFire instance today it was found that the admin login to the web page for the OpenFire instances and the Spark client logins were failing. (Essentially each instance is a separate install of Openfire on the same server but in different directories - we do this to segregate the chat groups from one another.)

WHAT’S NEW IN VERSION 140104?
1. ExLight is now based on upcoming Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr 64 bit (to be released in a stable version in April 2014).
2. ExLight’s ISO file is now a ISO-hybrid, which means that it can very easily be transferred (copied) to a USB pen drive. You can then even run ExLight from the USB stick and save all your system changes on the stick. I.e. you will enjoy persistence! I’ve found two scripts which make the installation to USB very simple. The scripts are...

wireless lan on raspberry pi

I just had to rebuild my raspberry pi again. It seems to keep eating its sd card for some reason. I decided to forgo the gui this time since it's a headless server. I just access it via ssh and vnc and I think I'm ready to drop vnc. Generally all I use X for is editing files in leafpad, and I can just as easily run pluma locally and connect over sshfs.

I have a pretty simple wireless setup - an open wireless network with no keys or certificates (I live on a farm, I'm not concerned...
