  • Backup automatizzato dei database su SQL Express – SQL Server Express viene distribuito senza SQL Agent, quindi non è possibile schedulare internamente a SQL Server processi automatizzati, come ad esempio il backup.

  • Il consumo di calorie, i carboidrati e i grassi. | Andrea Beggi – […]Coerente con l’attitudine nerd che mi perseguita da sempre, ho cercato di sviscerare le relazioni tra il movimento e il consumo energetico, tanto per non lasciare nulla di intentato. L’argomento mi interessa e condivido qui i miei appunti, ottenuti da un processo di semplificazione[…]

  • Mobile-OTP: Strong Two-Factor Authentication with Mobile Phones – Mobile One Time Passwords (Mobile-OTP)
    strong, two-factor authentication with mobile phones

    Using static passwords for authentication, as it is commonly done, has quite a few security drawbacks: passwords can be guessed, forgotten, written down and stolen, eavesdropped or deliberately being told to other people.
    A better, more secure way of authentication is the so called "two-factor" or "strong authentication" based on one time passwords. Instead of authenticating with a simple password, each user carries a device ("token") to generate passwords that are valid only one time.

  • Open Monitoring Distribution – Wiki – OMD – Welcome to OMD – the Open Monitoring Distribution. OMD implements a completely new concept of how to install, maintain and update a monitoring system built on Nagios.

    OMD avoids the tedious work of manually compiling and integrating Nagios addons while at the same time avoiding the problems of pre-packaged installations coming with your Linux distribution, which are most times outdated and provide no regular updates.

    OMD bundles Nagios together with many important addons and can easily be installed on every major Linux distribution. We provide prebuilt packages for all enterprise Linux distributions and also for some other, such as Ubuntu 11.04.

  • ottimizzazioni (quasi) estreme – In fondo, perché far ricomprimere ad Apache lo stesso file centomila volte al giorno, se questo non cambia praticamente mai? Non sarebbe possibile comprimerlo “a priori” e poi istruire il server a fornire la giusta versione a seconda che il browser dell’utente supporti o meno il formato gzip? A quanto pare la risposta è si
  • Trouble-Maker – Being a system administrator is full of interesting challenges. We like this. However, some of these challenges can be problematic, if they cause service interrupts on production systems. Most system administrators have run into the situation where something is wrong, the server is down, and we don't know what is going on. This project attempts to help.<br />
    <br />
    There are a lot of tools out there to make the system administrator's life easier. However, no tool is a replacement for properly understanding the system and experience in troubleshooting unknown situations. This is where Trouble-Maker comes in. Unlike other projects, we do not attempt to solve problems — we cause them.

If you want to learn more than just how to set up or manage virtual printers on AIX, this article is for you.
