That is the question !
Since M$ replaces Google has advertisement exclusive provider for Digg, I wonder if I will keep "digging" some articles there...
But if I start like that, it means that I'm becoming an OpenSource extremist.... So ok, I give up my first idea and I still will "digg"... but of course no without having learned to my adds and banner blocker :-)
I just hope that the really interesting articles about OpenSource won't disappear.
Hehe, I discussed yesterday on the phone with arrfab how nice is ldapvi to manage openldap directory via an ssh connection remotely.
Arrfab then posted on his rpm repo (see his blog entry) an rpm for Centos 5.
As I don't have any repo, you can download the rpms I build for fedora 7 from arrfab's src.rpm bellow :
For some reason I had to connect to some VPN provided by a Check Point and since I migrate to Fedora 7 this fails with the following message from the SSL VPN Portal : initialization failed.
My colleague, Den Raf, had the same trouble and pointed me to the segmentation fault of the snx binary :(
Installing compat-libstdc++-296 and using the library provided in that package solved the fault :
Since long time I was wishing to have a full ssh access through the Web. I did some research long time ago and sodg pointed me to java applet (shell-in-a-box) but I didn't really like it but it was better than nothing.
Finally I took some time (5mins) to search for a new solution and I found what makes me so happy : ajaxterm !!
Ajaxterm is a python script running on a remote server where you can configure optionally an apache (or using a reverse proxy) to access it. I definitely advise to use an SSL layer and to use a web authentication. If you run ajaxterm from root the login command will be started but you can always specify another one.
As you can see I'll be able to follow my irc chats everywhere ;)
I don't know if remember, but long time ago I was looking for an opensource project that could index all the files that are stored on cd's or dvd's (see this old post).
It seems somebody coded it, the name of that project is DiskSearch and it's written in Python.
