After my dramatic attempt to get my hands on an IIyama E2200WS last weekend, the friendly people at graficall sold me a *real* E2200WS.
I had to negotiate a new sleeping place with the cats, though:

In reference to this older post, several people requested my smbd.conf samba configuration file. Here it is:
[global]

I’m about to start a new project: a transparent SQL proxy. Connect your PHP-app to this “fake” mysql server, which sits in between your app and postgresql server translating all mysql-specific queries to normal sql’92 compliant format.
Requirements:
- support backend connections to postgres
- emulate mysql behaviour to frontend
- in Release1, queries for ‘X-cart’ shopping cart software should be supported
I have a clear picture of this. Does anyone have more ideas to contribute? I’ll start designing in the next few days.
