  • RPM SPECS for Python CiscoConfParse

    Recently I have been using ciscoconfparse to loop through Cisco configs, installing on my local laptop is straightforward with pip however getting it onto a customers linux jump server can be a bit more tricky (proxies, build deps and the like).

    For Redhat/Centos (6) boxes I found an out ...

  • CentOS/Redhat IPSEC and EC2

    So it turns out my 5 minute vpn doesn't work in EC2 because the ESP/AH protocols (50 and 51) are blocked on the AWS network.

    This is no big deal tho, as NAT-T allows one to tunnel IPSEC over UDP... however getting it to work on CentOS required ...

  • RedHat Cluster - How to Disable Fencing

    I've spent far too long googling how to disable fencing.... I can only guess that because you shouldn't really disable fencing no-one wants to post a how to... so for the hard of hearing.

    Do NOT disable fencing on your RedHat Cluster unless you really know what you ...

  • GRE example for CentOS/RHEL

    I'm not sure why GRE isn't in RedHat's Documentation, but setting up a GRE tunnel between two RedHat boxes is quite straight forward...

    On Host1 (192.168.56.101)...

    #!/bin/bash
    [root@CentOS1 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-tun0

    It is now possible to limit yum to install security updates only. To do so, simply install the yum-security plugin and run the following command:

    yum update --security

    Hopefully this will allow fedora users to have the option of running a ...

  • USB Networking with Fedora 7 & n800

    There are times where you cannot use WiFi, for example my workplace's WLAN uses LEAP, which maemo doesn't support. I found that setting up USB networking on my n800 was a bit of a pain since there isn't a single document... if you check my del.icio ...

  • HTTP Compression on Redhat / CentOS / Fedora

    I was doing some testing on my server the other day, and realised that http compression within apache (httpd) was not enabled by default. Further digging showed me that mod_defate was what I needed, and infact it was installed by default on my CentOS box.

    How to enable mod_default on ...

  • Intel 3945ABG Wireless / WiFi Card on CentOS 5

    I've taken to using CentOS on my servers, and fedora on my Laptop. New job, means new laptop, and to avoid fedora update hell, I thought I'd try CentOS on my laptop.

    All seems good other than my wifi card not being detected, and for some reason googling ...
