Yahoo! Go for Nokia 6600

Yesterday I have installed Yahoo! Go Mobile for Nokia 6600 successfully. Why I mentioned it successful? Because when I tried to install ygo.sis from http://download.go.yahoo.com/sm/ygo/symbian_s60/ygo.sis to my Nokia 6600 always failed. I don't know why. If you have same experience about this, please feel free your comments to this.

You can download this Y!Go for Nokia 6600 in this address: http://download.go.yahoo.com/sm/ygo/symbian_s60/ygo_apac_ns.sis (reported as broken link).

There are another links that you can try to download and install to your nokia S60 phone. Please refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbian.

VERY IMPORTANT NOTE:

Based on Yahoo! Help web site, they already inform us that Yahoo! Go v1.x service was down since August 20, 2007. The consequence with that is all of the Yahoo! Go v1.x application will go down too. Please refer to Yahoo! FAQ.

Sharing Internet Connection with Firestarter

Today I have configured my FC 5 as router with Firestarter successfully. Firestarter is all-in one Linux firewall utility that make more easier firewall configuration than iptable. Here is what I have done to my FC5 machine. My Linux is part of our intranet and has 2 LAN Cards, one is connected to intranet and the other (eth1) connected to LAN with IP network address 192.168.0.0/24. In that machine, I have already install and running configureable firestarter.
For make more easier firestarter configuration, we can use Firestarter for GNOME which has developed by Tomas Junnonen. With that application, we can configure firewall policy. Here are my policy:
  • Inbound traffic policy
    • Allow connections from host: 192.168.0.0/24
    • Allow service: all of available services with anyone for the source
  • Outbound traffic policy
    • For restrictive by default
      • Allow connections from LAN host: 192.168.0.0/24
      • allow service: all of available services

Drupal

Akhirnya saya sempat juga menyelesaikan web site http://lpps.or.id dengan menggunakan Drupal versi 4.6.5. CMS satu ini memang sangat enak digunakan. Terus terang dari waktu belajar menggunakan sehingga bisa jadi web site sederhana seperti itu, hanya butuh waktu 15 jam. Mungkin waktu yang terlalu lama juga ya untuk belajar CMS. Tapi kalau saya bandingkan dengan Mamboo, CMS Drupal ini lebih ringan dan mudah sekali untuk digunakan. Tidak ada pemrograman sedikitpun dalam pembuatan web site LPPS tersebut, paling hanya mengubah css nya saja sedikit. Saya rekomendasikan Drupal untuk pembangunan web site skala menengah ke bawah yang tidak memerlukan struktur yang komplek.

ATutor

Hari sabtu lalu, tanggl 10 Juli 2006, saya melakukan instalasi program ATutor di http://lecturer.ukdw.ac.id/budsus/Atutor. Pemilihan dari aplikasi ini menurut hemat saya dikarenakan pustaka PHP yang digunakan tidaklah "neko-neko" dan fasilitas serta fungsi yang disediakan oleh sistem ATutor untuk menunjang pelaksanaan e-class sangatlah mencukupi. Nantinya program ATutor ini akan saya gunakan untuk menunjang kelas matakuliah yang saya ajar, antara lain: Pemrograman Perangkat Nirkabel, Pemrograman Jaringan, Rekayasa Perangkat Lunak II dan Pemrograman Multi Proses. Semoga dapat saya manfaatkan secara maksimal.
