    Downloading files on a dodgy network connection

    Downloading Files on a Dodgy Network Connection. I was on holiday this weekend and the place we stayed didn't have a strong internet connection. It was good enough for browsing, but not good enough for multiple people streaming stuff off of the internet. So we wanted to pull down some files from our media library …

    Installing Openshift into a VM

    Installing OpenShift on a VirtualBox VM I keep hearing the word OpenShift at work. I don't know what it means. First instinct is to try and get something up and running. I spent about a week and a half scouring the internet for some good instructions and tried a few things. Here's my findings. (I'll probably do a …

    Getting Started with Kube #1 - Base Software

    Method 1 - Docker Desktop Easiest way is to use Docker Desktop 3.2.1 and enable kubernetes in the preferences, but if you want to see whats happening under the hood I prefer to use this old Virtualbox/Vagrant method. Method 2 - VirtualBox Vagrant Tested on Mac (x86_64) 11.2.2 Big Sur Virtualbox 6.1.18 Vagrant 2.2.14 …

    Scaling Macbook Resolution on an Ultrawide in HiDpi

    So bit of background. I like Mac's retina (otherwise known as HiDPI under the hood) display. Even when on a non-native resolution, I feel its sharper than running on the low DPI setting. I've bought monitors in the past (a lovely Dell, 2560x1440) and had to cave to the fact that I could not run retina/HiDPI at anything …

    Mar 2, 2019 Containers .NET Core

    This is a new series I’ve decided to write, which covers the current experiment I’m running with .NET Core 2.1, Azure DevOps, Docker and eventually Kubernetes. I want to demonstrate how we break up a simplified example of a monolithic application containing self hosted WebAPI services into a number of microservices. …

    Mar 2, 2019 Containers .NET Core Docker

    Setting up a private docker registry In parts 1 and 2 of this series, we’ve coded up a simple .NET Core 2 web application, containing some services, and we’ve dockerised it and its stored on our local docker image library.

  • Another Nano Server Post….(this time using Virtualbox/Windows 2016 TP4)

    Jan 29, 2016 Server Admin Nano

    Microsoft has yet to release an iso that allows you to install Nano Server onto a server. The standard method seems to be to create a VHD and then use that to run Nano. I was at a conference the other day, and managed to work through the process of getting a server up and running in VirtualBox 5. Lets go: On a Windows …
