    When is a unique id not unique? How can a file exist and not exist? All this caused a mysterious bug in JFFNMS with the reachability interface which goes to show the limitations of the PHP function uniqid().

    JFFNMS version 0.9.4 was released today, this version fixes some bugs that have recently appeared in previous versions.

    I have been putting a lot of testing into JFFNMS lately.  I have been very lucky to have had someone with the time and patience to try out various sub versions and give me access to their results. The end-result of all this testing is a much, much less buggy JFFNMS.  There have been a…

    After some reports back about [JFFNMS](http://www.jffnms.org/) 0.9.0rc1 I have now updated it to rc2. Thanks for all who gave me information about how it worked in YOUR setup.  I cannot be sure but I’d say the second RC will be the last until the release itself. Sven has also given me the nod and ncurses…

    One of the many Free Software projects I work on is JFFNMS, which is a network management system written in PHP. In light that the last IPv4 address blocks have now been allocated to APNIC it’s probably timely to look at how to manage network devices in a new IPv6 world. First you need to…

    After my usual battle with PHP and database exports, jffnms 0.8.5 is now released. This program is a network management system written in PHP.  The worst part about the whole maintaining process for it would have to be is the release. Why is it so difficult to track changes within a database and PHP code?…
