valleywag writes: A Comcast customer in Pittsburgh is not amused that Comcast cares. As Twitter user gpk3, he wrote "Comcast sucks," causing Frank Eliason, Comcast's Customer Outreach manager who keeps tabs on Twitter to respond "Welcome to Twitter. How can I change your perception?" The customer was not amused, accusing Comcast of invading his "personal space." And by "personal space" he seems to mean "messages publicly available to the world on the Internet," causing a few Twitterers to come to Comcast's defense.

One of the servers I look over has been compromised by what appears to be an XSS exploit. Much of my weekend has consisted of a harsh Linux system audit, in attempts to harden the system. One of the key upgrades is the use of the Apache mod_security and the great collection of signatures and rules by www.gotroot.com. Perhaps I’ll write a How-To at some time for installing that mod . Any who, I had a blast and hope to be able to repay this friend of mine some time soon. |

In this brief blog entry I will explain what to do with way to much time and Linux (using the MOTD file). What is the MOTD you might ask? MOTD is a computer acronym that stands for Message Of The Day. A MOTD is a text file displayed to a user logging in on IRC, a shell using telnet or SSH, or FTP. The MOTD is typically used to display rules, administrator contact, or simply a piece of ASCII art.

So, get this, for many-many weeks I have been literally fighting with cron and crontabs on this here web server (hosted at the-planet DC). Cron is a Unix utility (Unix daemon) that executes commands in a crontab file at a specified time and date. Cron is used to schedule such functions as backup and maintenance procedures. I kept adding crontabs and waiting, and waiting. Nothing! I could execute the command by hand or use a lee-rigged system (like pormanscron for Drupal) but neither were completely automated without side effects. Finally I realized that perhaps cron got 'jammed' and restarted the service. |
