After my forenoon with SPEED, I went to Dhoom-2 with some of my friends. The casts were Hrithick Roshan, Abishek Bachan, Aishwarya Rai, Bipasa Basu. The story of the film was like the same as its previous one (Dhoom), except the techiques used and the climax.

The first part of the film was super, but the second part made me sleep a little. The second part was moved using the sentiment scenes. Though the trechniques used to steal the precious things were super, there are a lot of mislogic in the screenplay. I vote for Dhoom as the best among the two films. The problem with the film is there is no logic and the film was flooded with heroism.

Hi all, I attended the SPEED 2006 at Thamukkam grounds in Madurai. SPEED (Southern Prosperity through Enhanced Economic Development) was conducted by CII (Confederation of Indian Industry) for the prosperity of the southern Tamil Nadu by establishing industries mainly aroung Madurai. There was a two day conference and three day exhibition from 1st to 3rd of December, 2006.

Honourable Union Minister of Health for Tamil Nadu state Mr.KKSSR Ramachandran spoke on the 1st day of the conference. Honourable Finance Minister Mr.P.Chidhambaram spoke on 3rd day of the conference. There was a buyer seller meet too.

As only few students were able to attend the conference, others includng me, visited the exhibition on the 1st day. After that, we went out for the film, Dhoom-2 which was good. For the first time in my two years of college, I saw a film with some of my friends.

My first Interview…

Everyone may think that this interview is for job. But, it is for the post of Ambassador for Sun Microsystems from TCE. I was through my 5th semester examinations then. During the last (and also easy) exam, I was informed to attend the interview from Sun Microsystems. Only two of the students from the college were allowed to attend, that too especially from CSE Department. I got the news from my Senior Lecturer and found that the interview will be through phone.

For the first time, I rented my friend’s cell phone to attend the inteview. Firstly, I received an introduction call and they asked me to wait for a day to attend the interview. I was in a critical situation that I have to concentrate on both the interview and the semester exam. As I know something for the exam, I waited for the call for two days without studying for the exam.

Finally, I got the interview call and was tested technically. Though the questions were simple, I couldnt answer two questions. The interview lasted for 8 minutes and there were 3 members in the call to test me. They said that they will call me after a week for the result.
Now, I am waiting for the result….

On Itanium 2, IA-64…

Hi all, this day will an unforgettable one for me. As me, Sai and Balachandran (my frends) have entered into the world of servers, we got an opportunity to install debian sarge in the Itanium IA-64 processor machine and we did it well. The installation would have been done by our seniors (who are the present administrators of TCENet). But in their absence, we did it with the help of our staff and an HP guy.

Initially, we had a problem of booting the system using HyperTerminal. Then, with the help of the HP guy, we booted the system and installed sarge in the server. After starting the installation, we were stuck with the partition phase (where we will stuck up often during our early times in Linux), because the server had 2 hard disks and had been raided. We removed those raided partitions and installed debian.

We learnt about a new partition called EFIboot (Extensible Firmware Interface). The IA-64 (Intel Architecture 64) architecture is more speed than the 32-bit architectures developed in co-operation by Intel and Hewlett Packard.

TELNET (TELetype NETwork) is a network protocol used on the Internet or local area network LAN connections. The telnet I mention here is a software program which is used as an inteface for TELNET.

To use telnet, type the following command in the console.

First telnet to any host.

telnet hostname/IP port_number

Then to send message to anyone, do the following steps :

(Here, the port number to be selected is 25.)
mail from : Your mail address
rcpt to : Recepient’s mail address
data
subject : subject
Enter your message here
(Finally, put a dot to indicate the end of the message).

Now, your message would have been sent

Note : The port number is selected according to your neccessity. For example, if you want to send mail to someone, select the port number as 25.

More updates will be done in this topic soon.
