Patching DNS

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008

So yea, the dreaded day came and went.  That stupid DNS bug sucked.  I think we got hit by it at work before the patch, though nothing major changed and we had no concrete evidance.

So on top of everything else, I found a way to patch our 4 years out of date server…..by upgrading it.

Because OpenBSD has to be upgraded one version at a time, I litterally did 5 OS upgrades in one night…on 3 different severs!

Here is some boredom pics from when I was upgrading in Chicago
