oldbloke's mutterings

The first time I installed Sophos Enterprise Manager, I had to hit it with a stick to make it work.
The second time, I'd forgotten where to hit it so it was troublesome again.
It's not actually hard if you know what you're doing, of course, but having busked my way through 30 years of IT, I occasionally stumble over stuff.
Tomorrow is the upgrade to 1.3
I've got the upgrade manual, I've got everything I can think of that might be relevant on the server written down and printed out so I can see what changes, and what I might need to change.
I've backed up all the files I think are relevant.
Now all I have to do is download the installer, come in bright and early tomorrow, cross my fingers, sacrifice a goat, and then DO IT.
Wish me luck.

Apparently I took 189 photos at Oulton Park on Saturday. Of course about a dozen are completely useless, and 30 or so more are ones I'd never show anybody else.
But still...
At one point, early on, I didn't notice I'd knocked the mode dial onto shutter priority. I took about 4 shots at something like 1/60th with the thing set to ISO200 in blazing sunshine. One of those actually looks quite wizzy with some gamma correction.
I seem to have about a dozen shots of the Lotus 33, too. Gorgeous car.
