Resolutions 2006

December 31st, 2005

Ahh… Its resolution making time yet again!
As i already mentioned that last year resolutions were a nice success & this year’s will be in sync with them… so here they are -

1. Honour commitments & be on time (notice that this time they are clubbed together)
2. Dont hold your grudges against people, but their deeds.
3. Learn to say No
4. Be more assertive & fight for your rights!
5. Work honestly

:-)
Nice… eh?
Say if i follow them with 60% efficiency, i’ll be a 50% better individual than i’m today.

Wish you good luck makuchaku! & let us hope that u’ll do the 06′ retrospect here on this blog… haahahaha

Wish you all again, a very Happy New Year 2006

Live Life Kingsize!

New year eve - A retrospect of 2005 & its resolutions

December 30th, 2005

This year, on January 1 (2005), at 1:16 AM, i made 3 new year resolutions

New years & resolutions… never go hand-in-hand!

Anyways, here are mine…

1> Honour commitments.
2> Try not to be late (part of resolution-1)
3> Behave in a better way ;-)

Hope, i follow the first resolution so that others follow automatically :-D

bbye,
makuchaku
HNY…

Lets do a retrospect & see what all have i fulfilled & what all have i ditched…

1.

Honour commitments.

Umm… yes, i have improved definitely, but there’s scope for much more. & yes, that inprovement is worth it!

2.

Try not to be late (part of resolution-1)

Still lack fulfillment of this one, often have to cut a sorry figure because of this. I’ll see that things improve here :-P

3.

Behave in a better way ;-)

Oh yes! i’ve definitely achieved this one! I now think in a much more rational way, i now think before i speak … & have adopted a new policy for the coming new year… “Dont hold your grudges against people, but their deeds”. & this has already started paying off!

So… not bad… eh?
Yeah. Seriously. I made 3 resolutions, achieved amlost 75% of them all (in totality) & am making more resolutions this year, which are in sync with them :)

Good maku, keep it up :-P

Download

#!/bin/bash

# Sends a message to a user using NETBIOS (& smbclient)

USER_IP=$1

# Try to find the netbios name
NETBIOS_NAME=$(nmblookup -A $1 | grep “<00>” | grep -v “GROUP” | awk ‘{print $1}’)

echo -e “Sending your message ($(expr $MSG_LEN - 1) bytes) to $USER_IP ($NETBIOS_NAME)… \c”

echo $MESSAGE | smbclient -M $NETBIOS_NAME -I $USER_IP -U “$PROXY_USER” > /dev/null 2>&1

echo “[SENT]”
