  • 14 Feb, 2013

I use windows as my operating system since version 3.1. Currently I have Laptops with Win7 and Win8. I never had a Laptop Linux but since I bought a new laptop I gave Ubuntu a try.

A rootless Pod for wordpress

  • 07 Dec, 2021

Podman Pods are very similar to Kubernetes pods in a way that they can have more than one container. Every Podman pod contains one infra container by default. This container is responsible for associating the names space with the pod and allowing podman to connect the containers to another pod. Create a Pod using Podman The first step is to create a Pod using podman: sudo podman pod create –name For our example we will create a pod with the name wp-pod sudo podman pod create -p 8080:80 --name wp-pod After creating the Pod you can see the infra container using the command: sudo podman pod ps -a --pod Note that host port 8080 has been redirected to port 80 of the pod.

  • 14 Feb, 2013

RHEL 6 switched from using the old System V init script setup to using Upstart.
 Upstart deprecates the /etc/inittab file, which ITDS used for configuring auto-starting on \nix platforms
The normal inittab method of auto-starting for ibmslapd/ibmdiradm does not work on RHEL 6. Here's how to make it work This TN(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21244305) show the steps how to setup the auto-start

CentOS is becoming a rolling Linux distribution

  • 10 Dec, 2020

Red Hat, CentOS's Linux parent company, announced it was "shifting focus from CentOS Linux, the rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), to CentOS Stream, which tracks just ahead of a current RHEL release." In other words, CentOS will no longer be a stable point distribution but a rolling release Linux distribution. CentOS users are ticked off.

Compress and decompress files on linux

Compressing and decompressing files on linux gzip {filename} Gzip compress the size of the given files using Lempel-Ziv coding (LZ77). Whenever possible, each file is replaced by one with the extension .gz. gzip mydata.doc
gzip .jpg bzip2 {filename} bzip2 compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block sorting text compression algorithm, and Huffman coding.

Effective way to clean up your IBM Portal Server on linux and save disk space.

  • 07 Jan, 2016

Today i receive a disk full alarm from my portal server. As usual i delete some logs and files left behind, but for this time this does not solve the issue. Search for big files or what folder is bigger on linux is hard using du. Googling i found a nice toll and what i found was a big surprise. I setup NCDU (NCurses Disk Usage) is a curses-based version of the well-known "du", and provides a fast way to see what directories are using your disk space. The setup is easy: 1 - yum install ncurses-devel ncurses 2 - download ncdu 3 - untar the file 4- ./configure --prefix=/usr 5 - make && make install To run just type ncdu at / and the tool will scan your entire server.

Farewell Docker. Welcome Podman

  • 23 Nov, 2021

Today I received a notice on my computer about  another Docker Desktop update, but this time a new agreement had to be accepted as now for professional use there is a subscription. I saw many people commenting about this when the new licensing model was announced and since Kubernetes will no longer support the Docker Container Engine, I decided to remove Docker Desktop from my MAC and install Podman. To remove the Docker Desktop I used this article(https://www.mytecbits.com/apple/macos/clean-way-to-uninstall-docker?utmsource=pocketmylist) and to install Podman I used the following steps: - brew install podman
- podman machine init

How to kill Windows 8

  • 04 Feb, 2013

Last month i bought a new Laptop. My old HP died.  The new Laptop comes with Win 8. I try to use Win 8 but i think it was not so friendly and honestly it is time to have a Linux Desktop. I chose Ubuntu and the setup, on the Toshiba P875-S7310,  was easy and fast,  after i  installed an SSD HD and  more 8 GB RAM.
The only thing that did not work was the LAN. How to solve the problem : sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic build-essential wget http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-3-stable/v3.5/compat-wireless-3.5.1-1-snpc.tar.bz2(http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-3-stable/v3.5/compat-wireless-3.5.1-1-snpc.tar.bz2) tar -xf compat-wireless-3.5.1-1-snpc.tar

Improving DNS Lookups on Linux

  • 17 Oct, 2017

A good DNS service is very important for a mail server. On Linux servers you need to put your DNS servers on a file called resolv.conf. In general you have two entries like this: nameserver1   192.168.10.10 nameserver2   10.10.1.1 If one server does not respond then linux will try the second, but there is a timeout for this: timeout:n Sets the amount of time the resolver will wait for a response from a remote name server before retrying the query via a different name server. This may not be the total time taken by any resolver API call and there is no guarantee that a single resolver

rsync is generally faster than scp for copying files, especially when transferring a large amount of data or syncing directories. Here's why: 1. Incremental Transfers - rsync: Only transfers the parts of files that have changed, rather than the entire file. This makes subsequent transfers much faster. - scp: Always transfers the entire file, even if only a small part of it has changed. 2. Compression - rsync: Supports compression during the transfer (using the -z option), which reduces the amount of data sent over the network. - scp: Also supports compression (using the -C option), but it doesn't have the same efficiency in skipping unchanged data. 3. Resume Support - rsync: Can

Setup Nginx reverse proxy for Node-red

  • 20 Oct, 2020

I setup Node-red to use HTTPS and everything works fine. All HTTPS requests go to default port of Node-red.  Today i need to setup a communication with a client that not support HTTPS, just HTTP. The solution i found was to setup Nginx as reverse proxy.  Nginx receives the HTTP requests and then forward them to Node-red. On my Nginx server i just add the following lines server { listen 80; location /reddata { proxy\pass https://:port/reddata; } }

Solved - Second Monitor on my Ubuntu 12.10

  • 28 Feb, 2013

Is there a lot of complaints about using second monitor with Ubuntu 12.10 When i setup Ubuntu, all monitors was detected and works perfectly.  After some restarts , things was not working anymore. I try several commands but this one works from this topic(http://askubuntu.com/questions/217900/dual-monitors-dont-initialise-correctly-in-booting-12-10) The problem is, in my opinion, the lightDM is not great with multi-monitors. There is a good fix though. install disper sudo apt-get install disper then edit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf to have a display-setup-script=disper -s line example: SeatDefaults user-session=ubuntu greeter-session=unity-greeter display-setup-script=disper -s This

Subscription error after create a vm from RHEL 8.4 template

  • 08 Nov, 2021

After creating a VM using the template that was created using RHEL 8 I tried to register the new VM and the following error was shown: This system is registered to Red Hat Subscription Management, but is not receiving updates. You can use subscription-manager to assign subscriptions. Error: There are no enabled repositories in "/etc/yum.repos.d", "/etc/yum/repos.d", "/etc/distro.repos.d" The solution for me was to remove and add subscriptions again RHEL8:  subscription-manager remove --all subscription-manager clean subscription-manager register --username --auto-attach dnf repolist or yum repolist

Using WGET to download software from IBM

  • 18 Sep, 2014

A few months ago I heard that it was possible to download files from Passport advantage using wget on a linux terminal.
Never needed to test this until yesterday when I needed to upload 3 GB of files  to a server (home office to datacenter) that had no possibility of using a browser to download from Passport Advantage. What I did was the following: 1 - Log on passport advantage (using my laptop) and looked for the desired software
2 - I changed the download option for https
3 - When I started downloading the file I copied the URL
4 - The URL is complex like this one: (i changed some characteres)
