Swatch monitor for inactivity?
by Sean Carolan 22 Jul '08

22 Jul '08

I would like to use swatch to tail a log file for "PageTurnEvent", and if this is not seen in the past 15 minutes then a restart script should be run. Does anyone know if this is possible with the swatch program?

Personal Wiki for CentOS
by Joseph L. Casale 22 Jul '08

22 Jul '08

For ages I have been keeping docs and notes in Public Folders inside an Exchange server and want to move this out to a more modern facility that allows tagging and searching via a web interface for keywords so I can keep all my notes more organized. Anyone have any personal recos for the slickest system to do this with. Given the nature of my home setup, its routinely used to lab stuff up so I would want something that can be easily migrated to a new install if need be. Thanks! jlc

Just do two things: 1. Disable password logins. In /etc/ssh/sshd_config, add PasswordAuthentication no Now you will have to authenticate by private key, but that's always been the best idea, anyway. Now the script kiddies can bang on your system all day and they won't get anywhere. 2. If the bandwidth they're wasting continues to annoy you, then rate-limit connections to the ssh port. Using the default firewall config in /etc/sysconfig/iptables, add this: # Rate limit connections to port 22 to slow SSH brute force attacks -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -i eth1 -m state --state NEW -m limit --limit 1/minute -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -i eth1 -m state --state NEW -m recent --set -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -i eth1 -m state --state NEW -m recent --update --seconds 180 --hitcount 3 -j DROP Then restart the iptables service. That'll slow them right down, if they can even figure out what's going on. Best, --- Les Bell [http://www.lesbell.com.au] Tel: +61 2 9451 1144 FreeWorldDialup: 800909

ps to pdf
by Craig White 21 Jul '08

21 Jul '08

I need a way to convert files that I save with Firefox as a 'print to file' to 'pdf' I tried 'convert' but that rendered the text as graphics which grew the file and wasn't what I wanted. How would someone accomplish this - or can I just print to a PDF? Craig

perl module to parse httpd log on C5
by Mark Pryor 21 Jul '08

21 Jul '08

hello, Looking for alternative ideas to parse the combined Apache log: /var/log/httpd/access_log (is how I named it) What I've tried so far is a CPAN search, which pointed me to a recently created module called ApacheLog::Parser >From the C5 shell, I used something like this (heavily refined from how I started) ---------- sh script --------- #rpm --import http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL yum install ncftp --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=epel yum -y install perl-Test-Pod \ perl-YAML \ perl-Test-Pod-Coverage \ perl-Class-Accessor \ perl-IPC-Run \ perl-Time-modules \ perl-DateTime \ perl-Date-Simple perl -MCPAN -e 'install Class::Accessor::Classy' perl -MCPAN -e 'install Time::Piece' perl -MCPAN -e 'install Date::Piece' perl -MCPAN -e 'install File::Fu' # yum install perl-IPC-Run3 perl -MCPAN -e 'install Getopt::Helpful' perl -MCPAN -e 'install ApacheLog::Parser' ------------------ end snip ----------- the above worked on a fresh install of C5.2 with a LAMP setup. CPAN asked for ncftp in its setup. I must have tried 50-60 commands before I settled on the abbreviated version above. As an exercise, I took a shot at using cpan2rpm to package the tar.gz's into RPM's the resulting RPM's are here: http://www.tlviewer.org/fostats they are signed with my RPM-GPG key http://www.tlviewer.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-mpryor.txt -- Mark
