Www

As I often have people asking for the files I use to make my pretty MRTG graphs; I’ll publish them here.

Here are some examples:

Zero - One - Four - vm1 - Sauron

The config files:

Sauron (including Squid stats),

Zero (including fan stats).

List of files included:

• indexmaker; simple script (included with MRTG) to generate a simple index file with all the graphs
• snmp-if.sh; will show you the IDs of the interfaces on the server/pc. These IDs have to be edited in the mrtg.cfg file; e.g.:

Target[eth0]: 2:public@localhost:

The joy of the internet.

I just noticed, while checking my Google Analytics:

They mention iRail.be on Tijd.be and on L’Echo.be.

Fun !

Screenshot taken at 09h08.

On the official time displays in the stations the train of 09h06 to Antwerp Central was already removed at 09h05. They always do that. Even if the train is yet to arrive... Why?

Basicly, if you're 1 minute late, check the display, don't see your train; you're not even allowed to asume your train has already passed. No. It has been removed, but there's a good chance it has 10 minutes delay. Explain me the logics in this? Maybe this gives the impressions trains are rarely late? No red with +10 min?

Finally, NMBS/Infrabel does something customer minded.

Today (after canceling every train passing through Antwerp-Berchem, due to light problems), they launched Railtime.be. I must say I’m surprised in a positive way.

Ok, it has a simple (ugly?) layout, it uses asp and .htm extentions… But hey, we got a site, that isn’t too slow, and seems to provide correct information for now… :P

Too bad there’s no mobile version available.

Guess it’s one of those things to add to iRail… ;)

For the lazy people, like me!

If, for some reason, the buttons have two different sizes or you see some weird stuff, try to refresh the page. You should get the new & updated .css file.

I’ve added some “quick reset” javascript to the from and to fields. Should be easier to use, if you want to change stations. Hope the link isn’t too small for the iPhone-finger. :) – This is a request for comments !

There also were a little over 1000 visitors yesterday (Thursday) on the website. Not bad! :)

Just changed the iPhone/iTouch plugin/theme to wptouch. The old one did have some layout bugs, and didn’t seem to get updated anymore. :(

Anner has designed me a very first version of the iRail icon. He’ll keep on working on it, when he has some more time.

As for the *@irail.be e-mail addresses, they seem to be down due to bad DNS/MX records. It’s being solved as we speak, but might take a few hours to update.
