Nice post dude! Basic stuff to start off with and introduce us network guys/gals into this stuff.

Keep it up!

I was thinking about doing a pile of them
try/except
ciscoconfparse
etc

I'll need to try and figure out if it's popular, if so I'll do more.

[that1guy15]

Blah popular or not I say just do em. They help you learn and solidify your knowledge so its a win. If they pick up and are popular great. But this will help get your name out there and free exposure. Cant beat that!

I cant remember does the PP dashboard show stats and hit counts and such? If not Im sure you can hit Drew up and ask for them.

I find cookbook style post to be very hit or miss on my blogging. Sometimes the ones I think would be the most popular dont get crap for hits. Then stupid shit I throw together gets 10x the hits. Who knows.

[dlots]

Ok, good advice :-)

I'll try and do another one once the current one gets knocked off the front page :-)

When I did my 1st post I found the hit counters, but for the life of me I can't find them now.

I e-mailed Ethan to see if he could tell me where how to find them.

that first statement made me laugh., Im so there myself, still working though CA. though. Thanks for the work you've put in to create the blog.

[dlots]

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking once I finished CA, I hope to make alot more of them.

[icecream-guy]

it's awsome to have a place to go after CA.  Creating scripts full of dictionaries, lists, and functions can only be fun for so long.
need somewhere else to go after CA graduation.
