Dauntless Technical Services

Not much eye candy here, sorry. Too busy keeping clients happy to spend time making pretty web pages. Well, ok... A spiffy logo would be nice. We'll work on a spiffy logo...

Free Services

• We've built some stuff (Linux utils mostly) available here.
• We run some mailing lists here. Some older lists are still maintained on the BoinkLabs™ server here. The Boinklabs lists will eventually be migrated here.
• There's the BoinkLabs Palm-friendly mirror of selected news and geeky websites here. It's updated every morning at about 8:00AM EST. Size-wise, it seems to run around 4-6mb.
• On a related note, if you are running Plucker to read web content, or e-books on your Palm™, you can download the BoinkNews.pdb file and install it directly to your Palm. It averages about 1mb in size and is generated each morning from the updated mirror.
• On another related note, I got a Sharp Zaurus SL-5500 and was promptly presented with the puzzle of how to cram my daily news snapshot onto it. At this writing, the idea is still only a few hours old and could use some refining, but daily .ipk files for installation on your Zaurus can be found here. Presumably the installed size is 4-6mb, just like the BoinkLabs mirror. I'd suggest uninstalling previous day's .ipk first. (There must be a better way...)
• Far less interesting is the BoinkLabs Web Site itself.

Professional Services

Dauntless operates out of Annapolis, MD (USA) and provides the following fee-based services:

• Custom-Built Systems - From Windows™ workstations to Linux™ servers, including integrated, networked solutions. (Please don't ask about Windows-based servers - we specialize in reliable systems! *snort*)
• UNIX/Linux System Administration - From Apache™ to Zope™ and everything in between. Dauntless currently maintains many robust, up-to-date, firewalled systems on the 'net and would be happy to do the same for you.
• Web Application Development - Interface your web site to databases, email, and other services! Dauntless can help you integrate all these wonderful things into your plans for World Domination™ (provided they don't interfere with our plans for World Domination™...)
• Spam Reduction - Tired of being "buried alive" in spam? Well, until legislation is passed allowing us to hunt down and shoot these vermin of the Internet (apologies for the insult to garden variety vermin), we're left with mostly technological means of protecting our inboxes from these vile, filthy, bottom dwelling... Err... Sorry. Anyhow, Dauntless can help protect your inbox. By example, we typically reject over 100 spams a day, while maybe 2 get through our existing filters. And we've just begun looking at more sophisticated tools for spam rejection.
• Email Tracing - One doesn't fight spam for 5+ years and not get pretty good at tracking the little stinkballs back to their source. If you have email you need traced, we'd be happy to help.
