ILO Config Genorator

March 22, 2012 by dhedges Leave a Comment

I put together a web based config generator to configure an HP ILO’s. Just enter in the few items, hit submit, then copy to your server.

Once you have it there, all that’s left is running “hponcfg -f yourfile.txt”

here is a link to the ILO config tool

Running an RDP server on a linux box

March 18, 2012 by dhedges Leave a Comment

I came across xrdp
this is a RDP server for linux.
The install goes fairly easy, but they leave out that you need to link the init script (located in /etc/xrdpd/xrdp.sh) to a link in /etc/init.d
other than that it works pretty well. you standard windows terminal server client works to connect and access the server, just like connecting to any windows server.

Rsync from windows to a linux server

March 11, 2012 by dhedges Leave a Comment

I spent way too long trying to figure out why I couldn’t get windows (using cygwin) to rsync to my linux server using a key exchange (so I can automate it). In the event anyone else is wanting to try this, I’ll post it here (assuming cygwin is already installed):

1. on the windows server run “ssh-keygen -t dsa” this will generate your key pair
2. make sure your rights are set correctly on the linux server for the .ssh directory and the files within it (this is what got me)
the .ssh directory should be 700 (ex. chmod 700 .ssh)
the files within it should be 600
3. copy your id_dsa.pub to the linux server from your windows server, then rename it authorized_keys, and move it into the .ssh directory (verify rights again)

that should be all, from there you should be able to ssh or rsync from the windows host to the linux one without need for a password.

Symantec Antivirus for SuSE Linux install / remove / build kernel modules script

January 30, 2012 by dhedges Leave a Comment

I had run into issues getting consistency installing Symantec AV on all of the Linux servers. Because all of ours are SuSE, I wrote this specifically for SuSE, but it should be easy to modify for redhat or other distributions (ex. instead of using yast, use yum).
This script is designed to make antivirus install, removal and kernel module updates quick and easy, while keeping your install on a central server that is easy to get to.
If you use it, let me know if it works well, or you run into issues…

—- here it is—-

#!/bin/bash

#Version *** update if you make a change!!
VER=1.3

#install locations (this uses wget and must have http:// or ftp://)
