  • “Reverse Engineering for Beginners” free book –
  • Resolve Hardware Status Alert SEL_FULLNESS | Brian Ragazzi – […] I noticed an alert on two UCS B250M2 hosts in the vSphere Client. The alert Name was “Status of other host hardware objects”. This isn’t helpful. To get more information, you have to navigate to the Hardware Status tab of the host properties. Here I saw more information about the alert. It’s cryptically named “System Board 0 SEL_FULLNESS”. […]
  • Network Stack: Cisco ASA Packet Capture – […] The ASA platform has fantastic built-in packet capture capabilities which can come in very handy for troubleshooting issues. I will be demonstrating some of the capabilities using an ASA 5505 running version 9.0(1).Performing a packet capture is done using the capture command from privileged exec mode. […][ Fantastic… I won’t say that ]
  • Sanesecurity ClamAV Malware, Phishing, and Spam Signatures – Sanesecurity produces add-ons signatures to help improve the ClamAV detection rate on Zero-Day malware and even on Zero-Hour malware.

Sanesecurity 3rd Party ClamAV signatures can also help prevent TeslaCrypt, Cryptowall, Cryptolocker and other ransomware, who’s source usually starts as a malicious email.
  • Multistage environments with Ansible – Ross Tuck – Ansible has excellent documentation but one thing I was confused about was the best way to store the configuration for multistage projects: say, different passwords for dev, staging, production. This isn’t really covered in the ansible-examples repo because it’s specific to your project and while the documentation has recommendations, it doesn’t spell it out completely (which I need since I’m an idiot).

  • 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.

  • I tool "segreti" per aumentare la sicurezza di Windows – Non tutti sanno dell’esistenza di un set di strumenti che, avviati dalla linea di comando, consentono una gestione puntuale di diversi aspetti di security[…]

  • SendSMTP – SendSMTP is a command-line SMTP mailer for Windows 95/98/ME/Windows NT4/2K/XP/2003/Vista/2008. It may be used in batch files or interactively.<br />

    SendSMTP is designed to be as clear and easy-to-use as possible. Easily send properly-formatted email on-demand!
  • HOWTO: Install AIX – To my surprise many AIX administrators have never had the opportunity to actually install AIX from scratch. This article is for admins new to AIX and anyone else interested in what the steps are to install AIX. The screenshots are from install AIX 7.1 onto a partition using the ASCII interface.
  • Use socat as tcp forwarder on Windows and restrict a few hosts to connect to it – Objective: on the company LAN, only one Windows server is able to connect to smtp server, some other servers need to connect to smtp server as well<br />
    Environment: Windows 2000 server A with one NIC, another Windows 2000 server B will be connecting to A at port 25 to reach company smtp server smtp.domain.com.

  • LasCon Storage – TSM Administration – Tivoli is part of IBM, and they provide a suite of management products for distributed systems. TSM used to be called ADSM and works on the 'incremental backup forever' principle, which takes a bit of getting used to, compared to the more traditional 'weekly full backup and daily incremental' system. With TSM, you backup all your clients to one central data backup server. This makes administration a lot easier, but means you have to limit the amount of data you send over the network. That's why TSM needs to be incremental. A central database records all backup information, and can be used to recreate a whole server if necessary. TSM always keeps at least one backup of every on-line file.

  • Network monitoring with Nagios and OpenBSD – Una guida in italiano all'installazione configurazione di nagios sotto BSD
  • UNIX Performance Management – The purpose of this paper is to introduce the performance analyst to some of the free tools available to monitor and manage performance on UNIX systems, and to provide a guideline on how to diagnose and fix performance problems in that environment. The paper is based on the author’s experiences with AIX and will cover many of the tools available on that and other UNIX platforms. It will also provide some Rules of Thumb for analyzing the performance of UNIX systems. The paper has been updated to include some of the things that can be done in order to make sure that the web server will perform well.
  • UNIX BASH scripting: Replace values in XML using sed and awk – […]Even though sed or awk is not suggested to work with XMLs (generally a programing language like Perl or Python is more preferred), there can be simple cases where we can make use of sed or awk to perform certain search and replace in simple XML s. Here is an simple example[…]
