don’t feed the seagulls

svn add `svn status | grep "^?" | awk '{print $2 }'`

you can also use grep -v to exclude specific files

svn add `svn status | grep "^?" | awk '{print $2 }' | grep -v prefs.inc.php`

find . -type f -exec dos2unix {} \;

First, figure out if your Linux password file is shadowed or not. If it is, install John the Ripper from packages or ports (security/john) and use the unshadow utility that comes with it to merge your passwd and shadow files into one Sixth Edition-style file.

Using your Linux password file, we’ll call it linux_passwd, you need to add in ::0:0 between fields four and seven. awk(1) does this for you.

# cat linux_passwd | awk -F : '{printf("%s:%s:%s:%s::0:0:%s:%s:%s\n", \
> $1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7); }' > new_passwd

At this point, you want to edit the new_passwd file and remove the root and other system entries that are already present in your OpenBSD password file or aren’t applicable with OpenBSD (all of them). Also, make sure there are no duplicate usernames or user IDs between new_passwd and your OpenBSD box’s /etc/passwd. The easiest way to do this is to start with a fresh /etc/passwd

.

# cat new_passwd >> /etc/master.passwd
# pwd_mkdb -p /etc/master.passwd

The last step, pwd_mkdb is necessary to rebuild the /etc/spwd.db and /etc/pwd.db files. It also creates a Sixth Edition-style password file (minus encrypted passwords) at /etc/passwd for programs which use it. OpenBSD uses a stronger encryption for passwords, blowfish, which is very unlikely to be found on any system which uses full Sixth Edition-style password files. To switch over to this stronger encryption, simply have the users run ‘passwd’ and change their password. The new password they enter will be encrypted with your default setting (usually blowfish unless you’ve edited /etc/login.conf). Or, as root, you can run passwd username.

Also you will want to copy over the groups file. note again, only copy over groups that do not exist in both.

cat linux_passwd | awk -F : '{printf("%s:%s:%s:%s::0:0:%s:%s:%s\n", $1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7); }' > new_passwd

I found a great post at MakeTechEasier I changed it a little and posted it.

You will be building kernel specific files so you need to have the proper header files installed for your kernel along with something to compile it.

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r` build-essential
sudo apt-get install xinetd gcc-3.4

If you are using 64 bits system, you have to install 32bit compatibility files

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

Download VMware Server 1.0.6

Download the patch file vmware-any-any-update-116.tgz

Extract the downloaded files

tar zxf vmware-any-any-update-116.tgz
tar xzf VMware-server-1.0.6-91891.tar.gz

Run the VMware Server installer

cd vmware-server-distrib
sudo ./vmware-install.pl

You will be prompted to answer some questions. Press Enter to select the default answer. When it reaches the point that requires you to run vmware-config.pl, type No. The installer will exit. Next, apply the patch

cd vmware-any-any-update116
sudo ./runme.pl

This time, press Enter for all the questions and enter Yes to run the vmware-comfig.pl. Once it has finished compiling, you should now see the VMware console in your Applications->Other. The first time you run vmware use the console by typing vmware in the terminal. If there are any errors it will tell us. If it says it can’t find some files all we need to do is copy them from the /usr/lib directory.

sudo cp /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0/
sudo cp /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/

For 64 bit users

sudo ln -s /usr/lib32 /usr/l32
sudo sed -i -e ’s/usr\/lib/usr\/l32/g’ /usr/lib32/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/loader-files.d/libgtk2.0-0.loaders
sudo sed -i -e ’s/usr\/lib/usr\/l32/g’ /usr/lib32/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0.1200.9

That’s it. Your VMware Server should be working now.

Last night I installed Ubuntu 8.04 and I’m so impressed. I did the WbUI version. And let me tell you, It was the easiest OS install I have ever done. Everything is great only one problem. My audio was really quiet. I have an Realtek ALC888 chipset. I had to crank my speakers to get a descent volume.

I found a solution.

Even through I have my speakers plugged into the ‘Green’ standard front channel jack Ubuntu thinks it’s plugged into the side channel.

1.  Open up the ALSA mixer[double click on the speaker at the top by the time]
2. Click on Edit->Preferences
3. Check all of the output channels
4. Turn the volume up on all the devices till you find the right channel(be careful if you have your speakers still cranked or you’ll soil yourself)

Thats it. Easy.

Originally found at How to create a self-signed Certificate

1. Generate server key

   openssl genrsa -des3 -out server.key 1024

2. Generate csr

   openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr

3. Remove passphase so apache don’t ask for it on every server start

   cp server.key server.key.org
   openssl rsa -in server.key.org -out server.key

4. Create self signed certificate

   openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in server.csr -signkey server.key -out server.crt

5. Copy certificate to Apache dir

   cp server.crt /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.crt
   cp server.key /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.key

6. Configure Apache to use the certificate

   SSLEngine on
   SSLCertificateFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt
   SSLCertificateKeyFile /usr/local/apache/conf/ssl.key/server.key
   SetEnvIf User-Agent ".*MSIE.*" nokeepalive ssl-unclean-shutdown
   CustomLog logs/ssl_request_log
       "%t %h %{SSL_PROTOCOL}x %{SSL_CIPHER}x \"%r\" %b"
