So after messing with the netbook surveillance thing for a while I decided to actually make a more permanent solution. I went out and got a cheap little webcam, stuck it in my front window to monitor the front of the house, and using the same basic config on the server in my living-room got it all rigged up to record anything that happens throughout the day. The next step is to setup dns for my home IP again so i can check in on the camera while im not home, and maybe to setup something like dropbox so the video captures it creates are stored in "the cloud". ll in all its a pretty decent home surveillance setup for under 50 bucks.
Setup an ubuntu server and messed with the ubuntu firewall (since it overrides iptables, and iptables overrides it... this is just dumb, but whatever). Nothing much is new, but for those of you using portsentry to secure your ubuntu box, ROUTE_KILL should be "/usr/sbin/ufw deny from $TARGET$".
Facebook app for the android phone is pretty nifty, uploading photos straight from the program is nice and smooth. Yeah... using facebook, and blogging, and twittering... I've been corrupted by the internet.
