  • Mail server statistics – The statistics are based on completely anonymous information and were performed using randomly chosen IP addresses. When connecting to a mail server defined as an MX in the domain configuration, it can reply in a different number of ways. It may not be online, or may be refusing connections. Also, it is possible that the server does not respond back with a "220" line within the period of time we wait, nor provide a banner that identifies the type of the software running on it, at all times.

  • using mod_auth_kerb and Windows 2000/2003/2008R2 as KDC – This tutorial contains my knowledge about using Apache/mod_auh_kerb and Windows 2000/2003/2008R2 as KDC.
  • Squid kerberos authentication and ldap authorization in Active Directory « Klaubert’s Blog – The squid web cache include a authenticator for kerberos, it is simple to use, but the documentation is not very clear about how to make it work. Below some steps use by me to make Squid 3.0 Stable1 and Squid 2.6 Stable17 authenticate against Active Directory (Windows 2003 Directory Service) and also to make it make the authorization using Ldap. This setup was not used in production environment yet, so its possible to had some problems not seen by me or scalabilities issues.
  • active directory – Getting Squid to authenticate with kerberos and Windows 2008/2003/7/XP – Server Fault – This is setup with Squid 3.0, has also been tested with Squid 3.1 and should work with Squid 2.7. Your Windows user must be a member of the SQUID_USERS group in Active Directory (for this case anyway).

    On the Windows side, Windows XP and Windows 2007 have been tested against Windows 2008, and Windows XP against Windows 2003.

  • Open vSwitch – What is Open vSwitch?

    Open vSwitch is a production quality, multilayer virtual switch licensed under the open source Apache 2.0 license. It is designed to enable massive network automation through programmatic extension, while still supporting standard management interfaces and protocols (e.g. NetFlow, sFlow, RSPAN, ERSPAN, CLI, LACP, 802.1ag).

  • Il Wireshark dei poveri – [...] Non avendo la minima voglia di installare Wireshark su un server così importante, mi sono deciso ad usare netstat. Dopo un po’ di tentativi ho usato la seguente sintassi [...]<br />

  • Mappare stampanti di rete con VBScript – Problematica semplice: una stampante di rete nuova, diversi PC che devono poterla utilizzare, non c’è kix che può aiutarmi ma c’è Active Directory con il suo Netlogon sempre valido. Dato che spiegare agli utenti come mapparsi una stampante potrebbe diventare una delle missioni più difficili di questo mondo e data l’urgenza della cosa, un piccolo trucco in VBScript può venire in soccorso per mappare tutto ciò che desideriamo in pochissimi secondi.
  • Extract Registry values from offline Registry file with RegFileExport – RegFileExport is a new command-line utility for advanced users that allows you to easily extract keys and values from offline Registry file located on external hard-drive and export them into a standard .reg file of Windows. RegFileExport doesn't load the file into a Registry hive like RegEdit, instead, it directly reads the Registry file and analyzes it.<br />
    <br />
    RegFileExport may also be able to extract keys and values from the Registry file even if the Registry file is corrupted and cannot be loaded by Windows<br />
