Postfix Virtual Domain Hosting Howto

by lecyborg
This document requires Postfix version 2.0 or later. This document gives an overview of how Postfix can be used for hosting multiple Internet domains, both for final delivery on the machine itself and for the purpose of forwarding to destinations elsewhere. The text not only describes delivery mechanisms that are built into Postfix, but also gives pointers for using non-Postfix mail delivery software.

Creating a Custom RSS Feed with PHP and MySQL

Convertir système debian en Raid1

by lecyborg
Our intention is not to build a fail-safe system nor a HA-Linux. We are just using RAID-1 mirrored disks to make sure that the system can be restored easily if 1 disk crashes. The following has been tested only twice (hey, we've got other things to do). It did work for us, it might work for you. It might also make your rats go berserk or just blow your mind.

Les Conventions en cakePHP

by lecyborg
Qui dit conventions dit accords. Une convention n’est pas une règle. Une règle c’est quelque chose d’obligatoire, une convention non. Mais ça peut engendrer des pénalités, dans notre contexte c’est une diminution de la productivité. Cependant la convention peut créer des obligations. C’est-à-dire qu’on dit : voilà cette chose elle est comme ça. Pourquoi ? Ben pourquoi pas ? On bâtit dessus et on avance. Et pourquoi ? Un seul mot, productivité.

SSH Port Forwarding

by lecyborg
SSH also has a wonderful feature called SSH Port Forwarding, sometimes called SSH Tunneling, which allows you to establish a secure SSH session and then tunnel arbitrary TCP connections through it. Tunnels can be created at any time, with almost no effort and no programming, which makes them very appealing. In this article we look at SSH Port Forwarding in detail, as it is a very useful but often misunderstood technology. SSH Port Forwarding can be used for secure communications in a myriad of different ways. Let's start with an example.

RAID1 on Debian Sarge

by lecyborg
A RAID device is a Redundant Array of Independent Disks. The concept was developed in 1987 at UC Berkeley and involves the creation of a virtual disk from multiple small disks in order to deliver improved performance and reliability. There are many flavors of RAID and lots of variations in how to implement it. We detail here a specific instance we use: software RAID1 using IDE disks on a Dell PowerEdge box running Debian "sarge" loaded with grub, managed by mdadm, using the ext3 journaling file system.

How to convert your debian partition to a software raid 1 on the fly

by lecyborg
The system is equipped with 2 similar hard disks (they do not have to be the same but it helps if they are at least similar). The first disk is attached to the primary IDE as master, it will be referenced as /dev/hda. The second disk is attached to the secondary IDE also as master, it will be referenced as /dev/hdc.

Howto crack (or hack) a wireless network with Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)

by lecyborg
WEP was intended to provide comparable confidentiality to a traditional wired network (in particular it does not protect users of the network from each other), hence the name. Several serious weaknesses were identified by cryptanalysts — any WEP key can be cracked with readily available software in two minutes or less — and WEP was superseded by Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) in 2003, and then by the full IEEE 802.11i standard (also known as WPA2) in 2004. Despite the weaknesses, WEP provides a level of security that can deter casual snooping

How to Install Openvpn

by lecyborg
The purpose of this document is to describe how to install OpenVPN server on an Ubuntu Linux system and have it utilize an Ethernet bridge to access your local network. Ethernet bridges essentially allow the operating system to treat multiple network interfaces as one combined port. When used with OpenVPN a bridge will allow you to easily connect external users to your internal network and have them receive all traffic as though they were locally connected. The alternative is to use OpenVPN with a route but that will not allow some forms of traffic through (such as multicast), multicast traffic is important to me as many games require multicast data.

Xen from Backports on Debian Sarge

by lecyborg
There is a great howto about installing Xen on Debian Unstable. It is really easy to do and it runs fine. Nevertheless, on production servers, that's not an optimal solution. Debian Unstable has too many updates and things change too often. On production machines, a Xen host system should be stable, secure and should not need much attention. That is where Sarge comes in. If you pull the Xen packages from backports and install them on Debian stable you've got the best of both worlds. Let's do so!

Flux de travail numérique pour le photographe sous Ubuntu

by lecyborg & 6 others
Heureux possesseur d'un appareil reflex numérique, et passionné de photographie, voila quelques temps que je me suis penché sur la meilleur façon d'organiser mon flux de travail sous linux. En effet, bien que Photoshop soit l'application propriétaire réputée la plus réclamée par les utilisateurs de Linux, l'OS au pingouin est en en réalité très bien équipé pour faire face a un flux de photographie numérique avancé. Dans ce billet, je vais tenter de présenter un flux de travail pour la photographie numérique, entièrement sous Ubuntu. Certains logiciels présentés ne sont pas libres, mais je présenterais les alternatives libres existantes.

Advanced Vinyl Handling, DJ Basics

by lecyborg
"What is DJ-ing anyway ?" I'll start by saying it is not just chaining tracks together into one long continuous piece of music. How you mix your records, which records you mix and even the order in which you mix them can make or break an atmosphere. A DJ is a musician who is using music to make music. The turntables, mixer and records make up one of the most versatile and complex instruments imaginable. Still, this does not do credit to the most important thing about DJ-ing. The ultimate goal for a DJ is to create something magical with the audience, to make time stop, to create a natural high, or more down to earth, at least give the crowd a great time.

On a donc le charset ISO-8859-1 utilisé sur la machine qui fait tourner samba (à vous de spécifier le votre, en général ce sera celui là sur une installation en français), et sur les clients windows, on a la page de code 850 (pour la connaitre, taper chcp en ligne de commande sous windows).
