I wrote this presentation on the weekends in April and May and it’s didn’t have quite the details that I wanted to put into it. Mostly I wanted it to be short and engaging. Putting in every detail that I wanted would have (I thought) been long and boring. I would like to take the time here to expand what went into the presentation and to make it a little more interesting.

Since my last post was so popular, here are a couple replacement WP’s that I made myself from schematics for a classic Heathkit HW101 transceiver.
First of all, the entire wallpaper is here:
On the right-hand side, there are these cool line-art cad drawing with Geeko in the middle. The problem is that these aren’t just just random lines nor are they circuits boards or anything like that. These are architectural blueprints. There are 5 full bathroom and a small piece of a 6th. There’s also a couple of conference rooms.
My proof:
I was incredibly excited to get this message earlier this week and now to finish my presentation.
Hi, my name is Jason and I use containers in other containers and I’m unhappy that I can’t run even other containers inside of those.
I’m not a big fan of Canonical’s snapd application containers, but they have one application there that I can’t get anywhere else for openSUSE outside of building it all from source and that is LXD. LXD is a hypervisor for Linux Containers a.k.a. LXC. With LXD, I can create full system containers that have much of the same functionality as VMs without the virtualization overhead and unlike Docker application containers, it provides a full environment to work in, not just enough to run one application.
10 hours of jetlag and rainy afternoon naps don’t mix. It’s 2 minutes to 2AM here in Provo, UT and I can’t sleep so I’m blogging.
I want to ssh into a machine that doesn’t have any external IP. In the case of my situation at home, I get a 192.168… IP from my ISP because of a shared connection. In other cases, I have VM’s with natted IP’s that also have no direct way in.
While you may never have a reason to deploy Wordpress on CaaSP, the following exercise will give you a way to see how persistent storage, deployments, and NodePort networking work in Kubernetes work. It is my belief that a decent understanding of the theory around Kubernetes is useful, but an actual hands-on understanding will help fill in gaps where theory alone misses. It is assumed that you have already built your own cluster and have kubectl working. Example files are on Github and are free to download.
I just cobbled this script together to make starting up VirtualBox VM’s a little easier when remote.
for a in `vboxmanage list vms | sed ’s/^"\(.*\)".*/\1/’`; \ do echo $a && vboxmanage showvminfo $a | grep -c “running (since” ;done
This will give you a list of all of your VMs. Followed by a 1 if it is powered on or a 0 if it isn’t. If your VM name contains a space, this won’t work. In that case, the following will give you just the list:
Recently I imported posts from my old Ham Radio/Tech blog: ki4gmx.wordpress.com. They are ancient, but they are important to me to keep. I am slowly going through some of the posts and updating links. If you see two links in a row with one of them struckthrough, the that one is the old link. The new one, which probably points to the original on archive.org, is next to it.
Like a lot of the things that I write here, this is a question that came up in a ticket that I worked on recently. A customer recently received a message like this:
Samba is a freely available file- and printer-sharing application maintained and developed by the Samba Development Team. Samba allows users to share files and printers between operating systems on UNIX and Windows platforms. Samba is prone to a security-bypass vulnerability because it fails to properly enforce SMB signing when certain configuration options is enabled. Successfully exploiting this issue may allow attackers to bypass security restrictions and perform unauthorized actions by conducting a man-in-the-middle attack. This may lead to other attacks. The following versions are vulnerable: Samba 3.0.25 through 4.4.15 Samba 4.5.x versions prior to 4.5.14 Samba 4.6.x versions prior to 4.6.8.
