Port wine finish

I'm pretty sure that's what he said, unless you hear differently. It also seems to match the description of the Quinta Ruban (Port Cask Extra Matured), mentioned on the Wikipedia article. --Steelviper 14:27, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Actually, it's Glenmorangie Port Wood Finish. :) -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus} 14:34, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

I didn't even listen to the podcast yet (is ashamed), I just thought it made no sense at all and changed it to something phonetically close that did make sense (that's what I meant by "intuition" in my edit summary). I know I'm not supposed to do that, but it seemed like an obvious error to me and the podcast was in pre-verification stage. --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 16:43, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

I don't see that as a problem. Don't sweat it. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus} 16:50, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Well you know, the BW:POD guideline state (and rightly so) that one should always listen to the podcast before offering "corrections", because RDM's sentences sometimes don't make that much sense. --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 16:54, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Catrope nailed it. All we should do as transcribers is write what he says. However, when it comes to links, I feel like it's ok to link to what he means (if it's obvious from the context what he's actually talking about). --Steelviper 19:21, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

That's what we always do. I am wary of the dropped words like [this] in Podcast:The Ties That Bind. They're mostly unnecessary and not used in any of the other podcasts. --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 20:24, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

SSH

I did give you access to SSH so you could run the update php file right? Shane (talk) 21:09, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, BSGWiki SSH is working fine for me, it's Wikimedia. A bug was discovered in Debian's openssl package which caused the SSH key generator to generate too predictable keys (they're supposed to be random), so my RSA key to Wikimedia SVN was disabled. That's why I created a new one and that's also why I haven't put 1.13 online yet as I can't access SVN until my new key is processed.

There's also a problem with the SVN program on the servers: it's not linked to neon (whatever that is), so it can't download anything through HTTP. That's not much of a problem right now, though, as I'll just update on my machine and upload, but it's something you should know if you ever decide to play around with SVN on the server. --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 21:13, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

We are using redhat, and yes.. I got SVN runing on here with no problems on svn.frakmedia.net :) Shane (talk) 03:24, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Do you mean the SVN server or client? Either way, I get a "host not found" for svn.frakmedia.net --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 08:51, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Server. your right. :P I have it under apollo. Shane (talk) 11:38, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
