Never Forget To Turn Dansguardian Back On After A Cyberspacejaywalk
Author: Webmaestro • Tags: centos, debian, fedora, linux, security, ubuntu • Comments: 1Never Forget To Turn Dansguardian Back On After A Cyberspacejaywalk Dansguardian is the leading free keyword blocker on Linux systems and it uses this method known as a weighed keyword score. Now, people who use or administer a web content filter know very well that there are situations when a filter accidentally blocks an acceptable site or even an unreviewed site. The simple solution is often to turn off filtering completely. Then it is of paramount importance that when this unrestricted cyberspacewalk ends, the administrator must turn Dansguardian back on!! But what if they forget?

Tags: ubuntu •
Comments: 3 How to Set Up The Ampache Streaming Music Server In Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Ampache is a cataloging and streaming service written for the web which recently moved its development to github. I have written this how-to in support of that project in the hopes that more people will download and support this excellent open source project and it will continue into the future. The aim was to provide a how-to to get your server up and running at home with as many options on and working and secure allowing you to choose to switch OFF services as required later rather than bang your head against the wall trying to switch them ON.

High-Availability Storage With GlusterFS 3.2.x On Debian Wheezy - Automatic File Replication (Mirror) Across Two Storage Servers
Author: Falko Timme •
Tags: debian, high-availability, storage •
Comments: 4 This tutorial shows how to set up a high-availability storage with two storage servers (Debian Wheezy) that use GlusterFS. Each storage server will be a mirror of the other storage server, and files will be replicated automatically across both storage servers. The client system (Debian Wheezy as well) will be able to access the storage as if it was a local filesystem. GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of scaling to several peta-bytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA or TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network file system. Storage bricks can be made of any commodity hardware such as x86_64 servers with SATA-II RAID and Infiniband HBA.

Why would you want to use WiKID instead? Well, for starters, since you have outsourced most of your security to Google, the only security you can control is authentication. Wouldn't you like to keep a close eye on the keys to your kingdom? Second, have you ever tried to get support from Google? Third, does Google provide you with the logging required to meet your compliance needs?
