Hi !
I'm a sort of a programmer from the northern part of the globe.
http://www.inga.fi/
I have this horrible hobby (or maybe it is a habit) to collect things that have collected dust. I have a collection of old radio tubes (over 1000 of them) which I intent to put into display on my website ( http://furpile.com ).
The server was earlier an Compaq DS10 but I succeeded in resqueing a very nice AS2000 which is now doing the job - and as the machine is as good as new I assume it will serve me years to come.
The operating system is OpenVMS 7.3-2 and I run RDB/Apache as the public server system. As anyone now can quess I do have a bunch of questions relating to that RDB thingy...
And - if someone has questions about:[list:b93d51af70]
[*:b93d51af70]vacuum tube radios, amplifiers and such
[*:b93d51af70]setiing up an Oracle or MySql or Ingres or RDB database
[*:b93d51af70]SQL programming
[*:b93d51af70]problems with Linux OS
[*:b93d51af70]problems with C++ programming
[*:b93d51af70]how to make Karelian pies

I'm more than pleased to help out as well as I can. I'm not surveying this forum constantly but my e-mail ( [email protected] ) is working allright and I prefer that one for a contact media.
