We have a small project we are working on part-time that runs on Nginx/MongoDB on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server. We'd like to be able to see reports on things like server load, requests/sec, response time, DB load, DB response time, etc. Is there an open source or free (as in beer) tool that can parse such logs and provide a real-time report?
I looked into Splunk briefly, but I wanted to see if there are any others that are highly recommended.

Is there any app or log that says when my MacBook Pro's hard drive last went into sleep mode? I ask because each night when I close the MBP's lid without being plugged into a power source, the power light goes into its snooze rhythm but the battery is half-drained by the next morning. It certainly looks like it is asleep, but the power drain seems to indicate otherwise.
Hi,
I was wondering if there was a way to schedule automatic FTP site backup with any free or open-source software?
Clients like FileZilla do not have an automatic backup (ftp download) option. Is there a way to schedule this with any program, by using the windows task scheduler?
Or maybe we need to use a macro program like imacro in combination with FireFTP to do the job? Do you think using macro is a feasible and secure(reliable) solution?
I'm trying to resize a flash video (F4V) and in the media encoder, there is a green line along the left edge of the screen. This greenline is visisble in the Adobe Media Encoder, but not in the source video. This greenline is then visible on the output video. How do i remove it
I have two inerfaces on my router with tomato firmwre: br0 and vlan4. br0 is on 192.168.0.0/16 subnet and vlan4 on 10.0.1.0/24 subnet. As I don't want the different network services on br0 available on vlan4, I have added this firewall rule:
iptables -I INPUT -i vlan4 -j ACCEPT;
iptables -I FORWARD -i vlan4 -o vlan2 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT;
iptables -I FORWARD -i br0 -o vlan4 -j DROP;
vlan2 is my WAN (internet acess).
The issue that I want to solve is that I want to make one host from 192.168.0.0/16 network (br0), which has ip 192.168.0.50, available on vlan4 (10.0.1.0/24). Only that host should be available on vlan4 (and all other hosts on br0 should be inaccessible). What firewall rules can be used to do it?

When I installed Windows 8 Professional Edition I noticed that Internet Explorer 10 was missing. I tried to find some source to acquire the installer but none of the sites are providing it. One of my colleagues upgraded recently and he got the new Internet Explorer after his installation was completed. So is there a way to acquire the installer?
Update:
I should have mentioned that I was talking about the Metro version.
A client has asked me to setup Windows 2008 SBS to block and log websites from a list they will provide. As far as I know they only have standard edition which means I cannot use ISA. I was thinking of using squid authenticated against Active Directory.
There is no budge for additional software. Does any one know of a different/better solution using either open source software or software that is available in Windows 2008 SBS?
Thanks

Does anyone know of a free (and preferably open source) way to mount a bucket so that it can be used from the Finder?

Google released their Chrome browser for linux but I got an error when installing. I was informed that I need a higher lsb version? What is lsb? Where can I find the latest lsb package/source ?
By the way, would it be OK if I upgrade to CentOS 5.4?
Computer cables and external devices are a continuous source of frustration for everybody who likes a clean working environment. The more devices you add to your home office, the more disastrous the situation under the table becomes: cords falling behind the desk, ugly cables running along the sides and under of the desk, making it almost impossible to clean and remove the dust.
This is not my office, but I've seen similar "setups:"
I'm looking for good tips/products which help me in keeping the all cables somehow under control and organized.
Thanks!
I want to do something like this in a chef recipe:
maven_artifact "/opt/foo/my.jar" do
source "com.foo:my:0.1:jar"
end
But I can't find a cookbook which provides this. I've written something which basically does this but it doesn't handle snapshots, which requires parsing maven-metadata.xml. Before I plunge into this, I wanted to be sure I wasn't missing something obvious since this seems like a basic usecase.
I'm trying to install Windows 7 on a virtual machine on my 64 bit Ubuntu Karmic box. I get to the point of selecting my language settings and clicking 'install now', but a short while later I get a blue screen of death.
I've tried a few variations, including using the 32 bit (fails very quickly). The virt-install command I've tried includes this:
sudo virt-install --connect qemu:///system -n ksm-win7 -r 2048 \
--disk path=/home/kief/VM-Images/ksm-win7.qcow2,size=50 \
-c /var/Software/Windows7/Full/64bit/SW_DVD5_SA_Win_Ent_7_64BIT_English_Full_MLF_X15-70749.ISO \
--vnc --os-type windows --os-variant vista --hvm
The limited info I could find suggested that 'vista' should work as the --os-variant, I haven't found any values specific to windows 7.
Here's my blue screen:
I've found very little by Googling, so I'm guessing this isn't a case of KVM simply not supporting Windows 7.
Thanks for any help.
Update:
I have been able to successfully create a Windows 7 VM using the graphical "Virtual Machine Manager" app, although I don't really understand the cause of the problem with the VM created with virt-install. Comparing the configuration files under /etc/libvirt/qemu provides some clues, although I don't know enough to interpret them properly. The interesting differences in the two VM configurations are:
--- win7-virt-install.xml
+++ win7-vmm.xml
-<domain type='qemu'>
+<domain type='kvm'>
@@ -21 +21 @@
- <emulator>/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64</emulator>
+ <emulator>/usr/bin/kvm</emulator>
@@ -23 +23 @@
- <source file='/home/kief/VM-Images/ksm-win7.qcow2'/>
+ <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/ksm-win7x64.img'/>
I'm not sure if this means the working VM is not using qemu at all, or if there is some other difference in the way it's used with kvm.
Update2:
So I've answered my own question (mostly) below. A KVM VM needs to use KVM's own CPU emulation rather than qemu's in order for me to get Windows 7 installed. I'm not sure whether there is something that can be done to get it working on a qemu-emulation CPU, or whether a newer version will support it. But at least it is possible to get it running on a KVM VM.
Is there something equivalent to WebDrive but free or open source ?
Update: I want on Windows if possible and be able to save a file on a virtual ftp drive from any software.
I know already I can type "ftp://[email protected]" into an Explorer address as suggested below but that doesn't transform it into a true virtual drive as i cannot save file from notepad for example.
I’m a Linux/Unix systems admin who also manages a Macintosh server infrastructure & there is a lone Mac Mini in the mix running 10.9.4 that I would like Windows XP & Windows 7 users to connect to with little or no hassle. The problem? Windows users can’t seem to even get to the point of a password prompt yet connect. Mind you this server replaced a Mac OS X 10.6.8 server that had issues, but never had issues with Windows users connected.
The gist of this post is: The tons of different messages out there about Mac OS X 10.9.4 Samba support are mind-numbingly confusing. Can anyone share some solid specifics here?
I’ve read pieces like this one here that suggest turning off file sharing & then adding a share with AFP/SMB enabled would work. But the suggestion seems to apply to 10.8. And from what I know a lot has changed in Samba support in 10.9 let alone the iterations to 10.9.4.
Then I found this great tutorial here that explains things step-by-step. Which seems like it should work, but the problem is the example given applies to a local user created on the Mac when I would like users in an Active Directory group—which the Mac is bound to—access the Mac Mini shares.
There are also tons of great tips here on MacWindows.com but nothing seems solid to the issue I am facing.
So from what I am reading these are my options:
Local User Versus Active Directory: Setup a common local user on the Mac OS X 10.9.4 server to be used for Samba sharing since Active Directory won’t work. Is this really the case? Because loss of AD integration is a major pain.
Do Extended File Attributes Get Retained from Windows Users: If this were to work, how do extended attributes come into play? Loss of metadata & related info is not an option.
How Fragile is Any of this to Updates: How does any of this shake out with Mac OS X updates as well as Windows updates?
Installing Official, Open Source Samba: Would upgrading the Samba install on the server to the official open source Samba via a package like SMBUp or via the Hombrew method described here help or make the issue worse?
I fully understand there have historically been issues in mixed environments, but nowadays Windows users connecting to a Mac seem to have a truly hellish road ahead of them. Unless I am missing something?
I was playing around the default mysql that comes with Slackware 13, and I think I broke it somehow. I don't want to fix it, I'd like to start from scratch, building fromsource and everything, but first I have to remove this broken installation. How can I do this?
I have a web application setup with a load balancer and auto scaling group to manage scaling. The source code is in a git repository so I don't have to update the images when the code changes, but occasionally the environment changes so we create a new image. Then that image needs to be cycled into the auto scaling group.
Is there a way to cycle the images automatically? Right now I schedule a scale up and scale down action which gets rid of the old instances.
I wish to deploy a trusted apps at the secured way...
i got one empty VPS (no operating system)

Hi, I'm just finished my Amazon EC2 migration and I want to delete all the files (databases, source code) from the old servers. The problem is that the servers are in California and my business is in Chile, soo I only have ssh access to that servers.
I'm planning to sell the servers and I'm wondering if there is a way to perform a low levele deletion remotely of the specific files and folders.
Thanks in advance!

I have apache, php, and mysql all installed fromsource. When I update mySQL to the latest version (5.1.46), do I need to update anything on the php side for it to be able to work with the new version?
Many Thanks
Server 2008/2008 R2
I'm trying to remotely monitor these servers to watch the progress of hotfixes being installed. I was able to find this in Server 2003/2003 R2:
-Log: System
-Source: NtServicePack
It seems the above event is written when every hotfix is installed.
I can't seem to find a comparable entry in Server 2008/2008 R2 though. Is there anything similar that I can easily monitor for remotely?
Hey
I'm looking for a lite (nothing fancy like notepad++, just simple notepad), open source wordpad replacement.
It would be great if it could save and open hyperlinks and export files to HTML.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
