Dan Rubin's SuperfluousBanter

Learning OS X

I usu­ally like the learn­ing process. I’ve never really hated it (well, except Math…) until today.

I’m sup­posed to set up a Mac OS X Server machine to run MySQL, Post­greSQL, and a few other toys, so the box can be used for com­mer­cial web host­ing. I say sup­posed to because I don’t actu­ally know any­thing about OS X, or Unix, or any SQL at all!

I have until the end of the week­end to com­pletely learn those tech­nolo­gies to per­fec­tion, so the machine can accept new host­ing clients by Mon­day morn­ing. I am antic­i­pat­ing many problems.

If you are an SQL or OS X wiz­ard, please shoot me an email, then I can maybe retain some shred of san­ity over the next few days.
