  • AWS Performance Tuning – This guide introduces best practices for tuning Riak cluster performance in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) environment.
  • Guide to Windows Batch Scripting – /* steve jansen */ – This series will share some of the tips and tricks I’ve picked up through the years of working with Windows professionally. I’ll be the first to admit the Unix shells of the world are far superior to the Windows command prompt (or even Windows PowerShell). Windows is a fact of life for most professionals writing code for coporate customers; this series aims to make life with Windows a little easier.

  • Configuring a site-to-site VPN between a Sonicwall and Linux Openswan – Mike A. Leonetti – I have had the fortune of having the challenge to set up a site-to-site (or BOVPN/Branch Office VPN) between a Sonicwall and Openswan. I have searched for other articles that cover this topic and found plenty of information that got me far enough to get some of it working. However, getting the whole thing working took quite some time and I found the guides to be incomplete. So for the sake of even my own remembrance, I will write a mini guide up. Of course I will link all of the guides I've used in a references section.
  • VPN Site-to-Site Openswan x ASA (Cisco) – House of Linux – Ladies and gentleman, today I am going to demonstrate how to integrate technologies from different platforms. It is possible to use Cisco to integrate with Windows and Linux using protocol such as LDAP. In this case the communication between Linux and ASA (Adaptive Security Appliances) is straight. We will only need to check the cryptography configuration and that it, the connection is established.

  • BAT file tips | Alex @ Net – Let's play with BAT files a little. As you may know, BAT files are intended to be run and processed by the MS command processor, named cmd.exe, and the programming language they are created with is very close to BASIC. The early versions of the BAT-files language (which comes from famous Windows ancestor, MS-DOS) were very limited. Nowadays it has more features and a few days ago I created a small collection of interesting tricks, related to BAT file programming. You can check the following examples that demonstrate which execution flow controlling statements BAT-file language has and show their analogs in PHP.
  • 10 Tools To Add Some Spice To Your UNIX Shell Scripts – here are some misconceptions that shell scripts are only for a CLI environment. You can easily use various tools to write GUI and/or network (socket) scripts under KDE or Gnome desktops. Shell scripts can make use of some of the GUI widget (menus, warning boxs, progress bars etc). You can always control the final output, cursor position on screen, various output effects, and so on. With the following tools you can build powerful, interactive, user friendly UNIX / Linux bash shell scripts.
  • Nagios plugin for ASE – SybaseWiki – When you are using Nagios (http://www.nagios.org) as a monitoring tool, it's real easy to implement your own checks for Sybase servers. Here's a sample check to see if your ASE server is up and connectable.

  • 10 Ruby One Liners to Impress Your Friends – Someone came up with a list of 10 one-liner examples that are meant to showcase Scala’s expressiveness. A CoffeeScript version quickly emerged, so I thought I’d publish a Ruby one. I find Ruby’s syntax to be a bit cleaner than Scala’s, but the substance (at least as far as these examples are concerned) is relatively similar.
  • Ruby development for system administrators | Linux User – Most Linux and UNIX system administrators use a diverse mix of shell scripts and tools like grep, awk, cut and so on. The classical approach has proven its merits, but these scripts are generally not easy to read or to maintain. One solution is to use a real programming language for system administration tasks. In a complex environment, system administration can become much easier with a real programming language instead of shell scripts. Traditionally, Perl has been very popular among sysadmins, but some people maintain that this is not much better than shell.

    In this article, we choose Ruby, a feature-rich but simple object-oriented programming language known from the popular web application framework Ruby on Rails. T

  • Modern Perl, by chromatic – Onyx Neon Press – Modern Perl is one way to describe how experienced and effective Perl 5 programmers work. They use language idioms. They take advantage of the CPAN. They're recognizably Perlish, and they show good taste and craftsmanship and a full understanding of Perl.

    You can learn this too, whether you've dabbled with Perl for a decade or someone just handed you this book and said "Fix this code by Friday."

  • Useful commands for Windows administrators – Managing a Windows 2000 Active Directory with about 100 servers, over 1500 computers and 35 sites, the following commands often helped me answer questions or solve problems.
    Most commands are "one-liners", but for some I had to make an exception and go to the right directory first.

    These commands could all be used in batch files, though some may need some "parsing" with FOR /F to retrieve only the required substrings from the displayed information.

  • [Rename Master] – JoeJoe’s freeware utilities – Rename Master is a FREE utility designed to rename multiple files with a just few clicks. Anyone that has worked with websites, file archives, or collections of music, videos, or pictures has probably spent way too much time renaming hundreds of files.

    This utility will add, remove, or replace parts of the filename with ease and also supports renaming via file properties, MP3 tags, JPEG JFIF and EXIF tags, and text files. Batch renaming that's simple to use, yet still very powerful.

  • Sending and Receiving SMS from your Linux Computer LG #164 –
  • collectl – Collectl is a light-weight performance monitoring tool capable of reporting interactively as well as logging to disk. It reports statistics on cpu, disk, infiniband, lustre, memory, network, nfs, process, quadrics, slabs and more in easy to read format.

L’uomo (bi)centenario

Di quando ero giovine e i computer andavano a carbone e cobol

Oggi mi serviva assolutamente la carta di credito ricaricabile per fare un acquisto online, come prima cosa visto che non l’avevo ancora fatto, sono andato sul sito della mia banca per verificare la mia visa.

Per chi no habla, la verifica è un ulteriore codice, dopo il numero di carta, la data di scadenza, il nome e cognome, il codice di verifica, per autenticare la propria carta online.

Tecnicamente credo abbia un senso: se tu, lurido bastardo d’un mariuolo, mi soffi i dati di cui sopra perché li hai letti mentre ti pagavo il conto, il codice “Verified by Visa” non lo puoi conoscere, certo a volte, ci metterei meno ad andare in un negozio e pagare in contanti che mettere tutti quei dati ma vabbeh.

Comunque, son li che metto i miei preziosi dati, che la banca conosce ma che mi chiede per sicurezza ulteriore e mi fermo dove già mi ero fermato altre volte: alle domande “quando sei nato” e il tuo CAP.

Imbecille sono imbecille e sia ma quando sono nato me lo ricordo e pure il CAP della mia città natìa.

Alla terza volta  che il sistema mi rimbalza con scritte minacciosamente rosse, mi decido e faccio quello che odio fare, alzo il telefono e mi metto in contatto con una persona, nella fattispecie Simona.

Simona è gentilissima e rapidissima, si rende conto subito che per un banale errore di immissione la mia data di nascita risulta essere il 20 gennaio 1907 e così in un paio di minuti vengo rincuorato nonché appellato “signore” per la mia veneranda età. Mi viene detto che è stata avviata la richiesta di riallineamento della data di nascita collegata alla carta con quella del conto.

Ora a distanza di quasi 12 ore ovviamente il db non è ancora allineato e io non posso fare a meno di pensare che la mia futuribile banca, con cui ad essere onesto mi trovo magnificamente, probabilemente usa delle procedure in cobol e operatori che eseguono “job in batch” la sera e la notte.  Come negli anni 70, proprio come quelli che eseguo io.

Che orrore.
