Raja, my buddy for the past 6 years is now part of The Danesh Project. We started off working in the same company for about 4 years and now have moved on to different places but our passion or Linux,open-source and beer keeps the friendship going.
Raja is new to the the blogging arena so I thought this would be a good place for him to get started. He will primarily be posting about Linux, open-source, IT news and occasionally some local news from Malaysia.

My blog was experincing some outage last night. Sorry for the inconvenience.
The IP block my site belongs to was experiencing heavy DDOS attacks so the data center was forced to bring down the specific network range till the issue was resolved. Official response from my hosting company below,
Update on xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/xxx and xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/xxx Experiencing Connection Issues
Hi,
We’ve got the latest update on this issue. Currently upstream of data center is blocking the IPs which are determined to cause the DDOS attack. Once the data center receive notification from upstream confirmed the blockage, they will release these 2 blocks of IP.
However, it might takes hours in investigation, configuration and testing between upstream and data center. Thus, we appreciate the understanding and patience while waiting the issue to be resolved.
Thank you.

Sorry guys,
I won’t be posting anything new today.
First, freaking Streamyx has been screwed for the past 2 days. I call them up and all I got was the damn machine. ” Users might experience slow access to international sites”, “regular maintenance work is being carried out from 12am till 6am for 4 day”. SIGH…………..
Second, I was playing around with Compiz Fusion on my NB and desktop and some how managed to screw them both up. Guess this is what happens when you try too many things and can’t remember what you changed.
See you tomorrow.
