In love with Fedora

I have been using Windows XP from past 6 years. In these 6 years, I can’t remember how many times I had formatted my HDD due to viruses.

So, I decided to switch to Linux,which is also better for PHP development. I ordered free Ubuntu disc from Canionical. Installed Ubuntu . But I was unable to configure it properly. And I ended up installing Windows XP again. Later, I found Kubuntu – an official derivative of Ubuntu which is used by developers ( point out if I am wrong). Installed it successfully, but was unable to configure it fully and gave up the thought.

And, four days ago, the thought of switching to Linux again came into mind when I had problem with EpiTwitter class of Jaisen Mathai because I was on Windows.

So, I decided to switch over to Linux,but not with Ubuntu or Kubuntu as I had read this and some other bloggers having same opinion.Linux has many distros (flavours, as they are known). And I decided to try out Fedora 12 .

I have all the things I need to develop PHP applications. I have installed -

FileZilla – a FTP client

Pidgin – a messenger

Amarok – music player

NetBeans – (PHP) IDE

TweetDeck for tweeting

and ofcourse (L)AMP.

Until now, I haven’t experinced any problems. And I am happy with my desktop powered by Fedora.

Here’s a screenshot -

P.S : If you are confused about what distro to choose, you can try out Fedora( that’s only a free advice although ).

apache, f12, fedora, lamp, linux, mysql, PHP

I was quite busy in exams , test series and school. It’s my tenth , an important year. So I can hardly

give any time for blogging. But my other activities are still on .

Recently , my test series at Bhange Coaching Classes , finished on 24th . All the papers were fair.

There is annual function going on in our school due to which I am able to write this entry.Birthday

of director of our school , Miss.Motwani ma’am, was celebrated in school today.

I have recently completed the HackMe contest on WabLab. It was quite easy. Completed very soon.

When I was checking out what’s going on at IBM DeveloperWorks , saw the link to

Master The Mainframe of which two parts have been completed by me. Just went to Wall Of Fame

there , and felt nice to see my name there.

There is exam in school from 5th of January due to which I won’t be able to attend the PHPCamp in

Pune which is on 9th January. I was planning to deliver presentation on Session Hijacking .

Updates :

1. The exam which was about to start today , is postponed with a reason that the school authorities

have came to know that we haven’t completed our studies . Is this a reason for postponing ? Might

be some other problem , but we haven’t been told about it. Anyways , doesn’t matters to us.

2 . It is from 8th January. Just the day before PHPCamp. They should have started it from Monday ( .

I took part in the IBM Master the Mainframe contest and successfully completed the first and the second part. The third part, however , is quite big . But still I am looking forward to complete it.

The contest was not hard at all . This gave me the hands-on experience with the mainframe.

In addition to this, I have won a T-shirt for the first part and a certificate for the second part.

Winners of the second part have got opportunity to put their resume/c.v. in IBM Student

Opportunity System . This tool is used by IBM and other of its business partners for recruiting

professionals . I am going to post my resume too .

Let us see what happens next.

You may be familiar with SQL Injection .

I happened to visit the website of Microorange Technologies , Nagpur .

Microorange Technologies website

They provide solutions in web development .

Accidently , I found the administration panel of their website vulnerable .

When I tried SQL Injection on their clients’ websites , I found that they too have same security hole. I emailed them on September 24th . But , unfortunately , they just fixed the site and didn’t even replied.
