Sysadmin by day, developer by night. SSH Tunnel, quick I need access to host:port. Googling for this is something I end up doing a lot because it’s often 5am in the morning when I need to remember how to do this, and I’ve only had a half cup of coffee. Short of it, for my case, is we have some web hosts I need to administer through a port that I can’t connect to from VPN, has to be from a host directly on our work WAN. Ssh -L 8080:webhost.domain.com:8080 user@sshhost.domain.com. Posted 1 year ago.

Sysadmin by day, developer by night. Who Needs Ops Anyway? Recently I read a sad tale about a startup by a couple of designers that suffered a complete loss of data due to hard drive failure and no backups. You can read the story here. Http:/ blog.method.ac/announcements/our-servers-hard-drive-is-dead-we-didnt-have-a-backup/. The author obviously wasn’t happy handling the infrastructure and admitted he didn’t have a lot of experience in this area. Ldquo;What comes next. We need to get programming talent ...

Ryan A. Chapman. Transparently proxying any tcp connection (including http and https without man-in-the-middle). I recently ran into a situation where a proxy server was being installed, but some applications were not proxy aware. To illustrate, this is what the network looked like:. Set service webproxy listen-address 10.18.11.5 commit save. Safe ports http access deny CONNECT! Root@web01 ]# nc www.google.com 80 HEAD / HTTP/1.0 HTTP/1.0 200 OK P3P: CP="This is not a P3P policy! 80 HEAD / HTTP/1.0 HT...

Sysadmin by day, developer by night, Juniper VPN on Ubuntu 13.10 64bit
http://joerussbowman.tumblr.com/post/66678250192/juniper-vpn-on-ubuntu-1310-64bit
Sysadmin by day, developer by night. Juniper VPN on Ubuntu 13.10 64bit. Writing this up so I can remember it. And if it helps anyone else, great. We use a Juniper VPN at work and it’s always been a bit of pain to use with my 64bit ubuntu workstations. By 13.04 I had it pretty much down, so of course Canonical would make a change to break it. The breaking change was they remove the ia32-libs package. Here’s how you do it now. So start by getting the list of 32 bit libraries we need installed.

Sysadmin by day, developer by night. Just a quick announcement with some links. I’m working on new package for tornado called tornadoauth. It will supplant the auth library in tornado. Something Ben Darnell has been looking for someone to do for quite a while. Tornadoauth will support server as well as client implementations. Current scope is I’m working on oauth1 and oauth2 implementations using oauthlib. The trello for the project is here: https:/ trello.com/b/htFuHooG/tornadoauth. Posted 2 years ago.

Sysadmin by day, developer by night, Running 64 bit powershell from nagios NCPA
http://joerussbowman.tumblr.com/post/99853640886/running-64-bit-powershell-from-nagios-ncpa
Sysadmin by day, developer by night. Running 64 bit powershell from nagios NCPA. I need to run some powershell scripts to do some monitoring. We have some active/active failover clusters in our environment and I want to make sure that resouces are running on their preferred node. So, here’s how you get NCPA to launch the 64 bit version of powershell. Find the line with the ps1 extension to launch powershell and change it to point explicitly to the 64 bit executable. Posted 1 year ago. By night, family.

Sysadmin by day, developer by night. Whitelisting Domains You Can Send To With Postfix. Been a while since I did a post, but here’s one of those things I want to remember. We’re starting to dabble with cloud machines at work. Machines running on hardware I don’t maintain on networks millions (billions? Here’s what you do, say you want mail to be able to go to mydomain.com and no where else. Save that file and then. Note: This was done on a Suse 12 server, paths and postfix config may differ for your OS.

Sysadmin by day, developer by night. Someone take tornadoauth, bye Rackspace and more…. Been a while since I did a blog post. Currently waiting on 123GB to transfer through several hops on my network so thought I’d pop in and say what’s going on. I’ve volunteered, then withdrawn my offer, to work on tornadoauth. Tornado does need a better auth system, separate for the current tornado.auth library. So why am I not doing it? Speaking of Go, my biggest Go project Unscatter. Posted 1 year ago. My day job is ...
