You can't read a technical Web site these days without some mention of so-called cloud computing. Cloud computing gives users access to massive computing and storage resources without their having to know where those resources are or how they're configured. This article discusses the anatomy of cloud computing and how Linux and the open source community contribute to the world of cloud computing. As you might have guessed, Linux and open source technologies play a huge role.
SCSI (Small Computer System Interface), often called Parallel SCSI, is almost 30 years old and can hardly keep up with the demands of today’s IT environment. Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) was developed to address the limitations inherent in SCSI. This article highlights the differences between these two interfaces and points out the attributes that account for the increasing popularity of SAS.
Learn, step-by-step, how to configure and encrypt the built-in Wi-Fi network that comes with the Cell Broadband Engine-based Sony PlayStation 3. And, as a little bonus, discover 16 quick steps that explain how to switch from a wireless network back to a wired network on the PS3.
For most Linux Flavors VNC will not start different sessions for different users by default. The only case I have seen this work correctly has been SuSe which allows the VNC client to login after connecting (instead of the default password before connection).
The third in a three-part series on how to leverage Linux to get the most from your network, this tutorial shows how to use Samba to integrate your Linux and Windows networks. Sample code and configuration files are provided throughout to aid understanding.
The second in a three-part series on how to leverage Linux to get the most from your network, this tutorial shows how to set up a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server with Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) DHCP. Sample code and configuration files are provided throughout to aid understanding.
This tutorial covers different mechanisms for capturing and manipulating packets. Security applications such as VPNs, firewalls, and sniffers, and network apps such as routers rely on methods like those described here to do their work. You won't want to miss this tutorial all about packet interception, covering kernels from 2.2.x to the present and techniques from divert socket and netfilter to interrupt handling and messing with the kernel source code itself
This introductory-level tutorial shows how to begin programming with sockets. Focusing on C and Python, it guides you through the creation of an echo server and client, which connect over TCP/IP. Fundamental network, layer, and protocol concepts are described, and sample source code abounds.
This tutorial shows how to combine Samba and GRUB to build a compact, highly adaptable, cross-platform test network, capable of booting and networking a large number of operating systems on a small number of machines. Though Samba and GRUB can manage many different operating systems, this tutorial focuses on Linux and Windows.
Having "wireless LAN" access (WLAN) in your office is nowadays almost a given. The challenge comes though on how to secure your WLAN and how to deploy it correctly. You probably want the least overhead for administration and a very flexible, yet secure deployment. Since WLAN access points (AP's) have a semi limited range depending on your building, you might want to deploy more then one AP per floor, or even one AP per meeting room. But creating different networks for each meeting room is pretty much out of the question.
This mini tutorial is going to give you the code to use Apache to redirect your site when ever someone uses www. It will go to yoursite.com instead of www.yoursite.com
