Today I upgraded my ESXi 4 installation to ESXi 5.0.0, 469512. Downloaded the updates and ran the updater. No issues at all. Kudos to vmware for making such a great product.

Recently I got sudo rpm -e postgresql-libs-8.1.23-1.el5_7.3 error: "postgresql-libs-8.1.23-1.el5_7.3" specifies multiple packages This is due to different versions (32 and 64 bit) of the same package being installed The fix is easy sudo rpm -e postgresql-libs-8.1.23-1.el5_7.3.i386 postgresql-libs-8.1.23-1.el5_7.3.x86_64
I recently installed ubuntu 11.10 in a laptop. I then had the need to connect that laptop to a cisco based anyconnect VPN. I could have gone the route of trying to install some cisco anyconnect software. I could also just issue
sudo apt-get install network–manager–openconnect-gnome
And then configure the vpn using network-manager. I choose the latter
Hurraayyy for OSS
I had a blast with coca cola for 4 months (2011-09-01 to 2012-01-01) and now it is time to stop again. It is not healthy for me. Teeth and weight. So I’ll give it at try of staying ‘sober’ for 2 more years. New target is 2014-01-01.
Nothing special. I just couldn’t find this easily on the net
2.6.18-53.el5 (RHEL5.1)
2.6.18-92.el5 (RHEL5.2)

Just a post to myself about that two years has passed since i stopped drinking coke. I will celebrate today and then try to find a way to stay away from coke in my daily life.
It is quite simple actually
Active:Â No
Syslog IP Address:Â 0.0.0.0
Log Facility:Â Local 1
ras> sys logs syslog active 1
ras> sys logs syslog server 192.168.1.2
ras> sys logs save
ras> sys logs syslog display
Active:Â Yes
Syslog IP Address:Â 192.168.1.2
Log Facility:Â Local 1
Due to a change of jobs, my xDSL connection was terminated today. Luckily I have other means of Inet access, but given that I run my own server I needed some portforwarding in order to be a happy camper.
Getting access to the router using telnet was easy.
telnet 10.0.0.1 23023
It was harder (hence this post) to figure out to do port forwarding. Basic stuff first. What version of ZynOS?
ras> sys version ZyNOS version: V3.40(AHX.4) | 05/02/2008 romRasSize: 1407100 system up time:Â Â 513:16:29 (b0380b6 ticks) bootbase version: V1.06 | 1/20/2006
Using help I figure out that I needed to go for the ip section
ras> help Valid commands are: sys            exit           ether          wan ip             bridge         lan
But then I was lost
ras> ip address        alias          aliasdis       arp dhcp           dns            httpd          icmp ifconfig       ping           route          smtp status         udp            rip            tcp telnet         tftp           traceroute     xparent tredir         backup         mcastChan      igmp policyrouting
Where was the portforward section?? I litteraly used an hour figuring out what to do. It turns out, that it is a leap of faith kind of thing:
ras> ip nat hashTable      server         service        resetport incikeport     session        addrmap        AOL-version9
Lo and behold, it is all there The rules are ordered in sets, where you edit a given rule in a set. When you get hold of the syntax it is actually quite easy
ras> ip nat server disp Server Set: 1 Rule        name            Svr P Range   Server IP      LeasedTime Active protocol    Int Svr P Range   Remote Host IP Range -------------------------------------------------- 1 DMZ                      default            0.0.0.0  0 No     ALL              0 - 0             0.0.0.0 - 0.0.0.0 2 WWW                      80 - 80           10.0.0.5  0 YES     ALL              0 - 0             0.0.0.0 - 0.0.0.0
Then you load a set, edit the rules and write the set. Eg
# Load set 1 ras> ip nat server load 1 #edit rule 2 ras> ip nat server edit 2 forwardip 10.0.0.5 # save set 1 ras> ip nat server save
All done.
I recently tried to reignite a server from another servers ignite recovery archive. At first I did not success. It threw this error in my face
The currently selected configuration does not contain any environments. You may want to select another configuration.
Debugging the error I found that the client did not have an config file in
/var/opt/ignite/clients/<name>/config
And thus lanbooting Ignite-UX threw the error above. I basically just copied over a config file from another server and edited it and all was fine again.
Took less than 15 minutes to upgrade my wrt54g to Tomato version 1.25 as well as upgrading the site to wordpress to 2.8.1. I still remember the days when it took hours to work with opensource software. These days it is a breeze. We have come a long way since then.
