Edventures in Normalcy

I recently had to prove the update status of apache as part of a PCI scan, and the best method for obtaining the output, was to email it to myself, like so

This makes it much easier to review and handle large outputs without having to be on the original linux system.

I have a few tools I use to deal with the scripts, first I want to see if there are any perl scripts running:

Then I can kill them:

Sometimes with the -9:

and sometimes for a specific user, again, the -9 flag can be used here as well

The Commercial seems very upbeat, but the actual song is rather downbeat. Below is the commercial:

Now, watch the music video, and listen closely to the lyrics:

This sounds upbeat, but is a sad song in the end. It reminds me of “I Don’t Love You Anymore” (1977) by Teddy Pendergrass. Sure it sounds like an upbeat song, but is rather sad.

::Installation::
1 Run the following command to check if Apache, PHP, MySQL, Bind or Cyrus are pre-installed by the OS:

2 If any are installed they can cause issues with installing cPanel, although I have seen cPanel attempt to import settings. I would rather remove them:

3 Open the /home directory

4 Fetch the latest installation file from the cPanel servers

::NOTE:: If you want to install the STABLE release, further details found here, as apposed to latest, run the following command:

5 Run the installation files

Once done, it is time to configure this bad boy!

::Configuration::
*As seen in http://www.thecpaneladmin.com/skipping-whm-setup-wizard/ http://www.thecpaneladmin.com/skipping-whm-setup-wizard/

1 Touch this file to tell cPanel it is being automatically setup.

2 Configure the 3 main services for the server.

3 Replace the following strings [Server's Main IP], [user@example.com], [Servers FQDN Hostname], [hostname 1], [hostname 2], [hostname 3] with their appropriate values.
::NOTE:: Keep in mind this should be ONE line once you have updated the string below.

Sorry, I just found Youtube has a history section:

That’s all for now!

Bank on it!

You go!:

Also, I am working on revamping my tools section, making the page more of icons, with sub sections and improving the ssl tools as a whole. I intend on adding a master conversion script made after https://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-converter.html and http://serversniff.net/sslcheck.php although the latter is down at the moment.

And thanks to a happy accident, the page no longer has the olive green post color I loved using so much for skin when coloring as a child. It looks cleaner and easier to read, but I will miss the old green.
