40 in the Fort, Fort Collins first endurance mountain bike race was held last Saturday. 2 x 20mile laps through Lory State Park and Horsetooth Mountain Park. I thought going up Towers RD was tough… nothing compared to going up Mill Creek.
The event was hosted by Overland Mountain Bike Club and it was incredible! Very well organized and a ton of fun.
I think this race was more difficult than the 66 mile race up in Larimie.
Results are in!
Problem: When trying to list the contents of a directory on a public FTP server from a host in the Amazon EC2 cloud the FTP client hangs. This can be from using ls in command line or simply logging in with an FTP client like WinSCP and getting the error:
“Timeout detected.
Could not retrieve directory listing
Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list.
Error listing directory ‘/’.”
Solution: Amazon EC2 host are behind a firewall which requires passive FTP. Check a box in your FTP client to force passive mode or if using command line or scripts enter the command “literal pasv” before listing the directory contents as shown below:
C:\Windows\System32>ftp
ftp> open ftp.publicftpserver.com
Connected to ftp.publicftpserver.com

Yay, today Ryan and I leave for Fruita, Colorado. The Desert RATS 100k Classic Mountain Bike race is tomorrow. We are not riding this year but giving back! We will be working one of the aid stations and doing a ~16 mile sweeper ride on Saturday then we will be exploring the famous Lunch Loops outside of Fruita! Look for tasty helmet cam footage in about a week.
Here is a very nice trail system map for the Lunch Loops: lunch loops trail system
To transfer an iLO2 advanced license from one server to another you simply get the license key from the old server:
- Administration (tab) > Licensing > Copy : License Key
Enter the key on the new server:
- Administration (tab) > Licensing > Enter: Activation Key
Now you need to remove the key from the old server. The easiest way I found is to SSH to the iLO address of the old server:
- SSH to old server iLO IP address
- Log in as Administrator : iLO password
- run the command: delete map1 license
You should get the reply:
hpiLO-> delete map1 license
status=0
status_tag=COMMAND COMPLETED
iLO license removed.
- exit
Test the Remote Console on the new server. If you get the error “unavailable already in use by a different client” you will need to enable Acquire.
- Remote Console (tab) > Settings > check the box: Remote Console Acquire – Enabled
- Apply
- Test integrated Remote Console
- If the error pops up click the button that says Acquire.
Just one of those post that spawned because I was impressed with something I stumbled across and wanted to share it.
