After reading some SEO stuff I wanted to add some meta tags to my WordPress blog. I found this site: codex.wordpress.org/Meta_Tags_in_WordPress  external link . So WordPress thinks that it’s not necessary to have this meta tags any more… But I want it! 😃 Next funny thing is how they suggest to add meta tags: copy header.php - what about theme updates? ...

Let say you have MediaWiki installation but you lost admin credentials. If you have other account or if you could create one without any rights we’re in home 😉 We have few options to do this. Reset admin password We have to connect to database and use this SQL: UPDATE `user` SET user_password = CONCAT( SUBSTRING(user_password, 1, 3), SUBSTRING(MD5(user_name), 1, 8), ':', MD5(CONCAT(SUBSTRING(MD5(user_name), 1, 8), '-', MD5('new password')))) WHERE user_name = 'Admin'; Just replace Admin with your username and new password with your password. ...

I have development server with postfix - I wanted to allow outbound traffic to one domain but cut off all the rest. I definitely do not want that test mail or any debug info goes to service users. I have to add something like that to /etc/postfix/transport: allowed.domain.com : * discard: Then run: postmap /etc/postfix/transport At end, add these to /etc/postfix/main.cf: transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport Reload postfix: postfix reload Test if it works: ...

In recent Ansible update to 1.5 version there is really nice feature ssh pipelining. This option is serious alternative to accelerated mode. Just add to you config file (ex. ~/.ansible.cfg): [ssh_connection] pipelining=True Now run any playbook - you will see the difference 😄 Source (and extended info about): http://blog.ansibleworks.com/2014/01/15/ssh-connection-upgrades-coming-in-ansible-1-5/  external link

To najlepszy przepis na chrusty jaki znam - wychodzą bardzo kruche i delikatne. Składniki 4 zółtka, 4 łyżki wina białego lub czerwonego, 4 łyżki mąki. Sposób przygotowania Wszystkie składniki wymieszać i wyrobić. Ciasto powinno być mniej wiecej takie jak na pierogi. Bić pałką/wałkiem, składać na pół i tak kilka razy przez ok 5 minut. Potem ciasto rozwałkować bardzo cieniutko i wykrawać chrusty, małe bo mocno rosną. Następnie wrzucać na rozgrzany olej/smalec. ...

I had quite simple task - compare two lists of hosts and check if hosts from first one are also on the second one. I started with diff: diff -u biglist.txt hosts_to_check.txt | grep -E "^\+" It was fine but output needs some filtering to get what I want. I’ve found another example with grep: grep -Fxv -f biglist.txt hosts_to_check.txt | sort -n This will search for all lines in hosts_to_check.txt which don’t match any line in biglist.txt. So after this I’ve got list of hosts that I have to check. That’s exactly what I need 😄

After reading some good opinions about MariaDB I wanted to give it a try. Upgrade looks quite straight forward but I found some issues a little tricky. Installation Add repo and key: cat > /etc/apt/sources.list <<SRC deb http://mirrors.supportex.net/mariadb/repo/5.5/debian wheezy main deb-src http://mirrors.supportex.net/mariadb/repo/5.5/debian wheezy main SRC (find more repositories here  external link ) Now install MariaDB: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install mariadb-server It could be better to install mariadb-server-5.5 and mariadb-client-5.5 package instead, because of this error  external link . ...

I was thinking about allowing access to my website using SPDY protocol for better performance and security (and for fun of course 😃 ). But SPDY have one disadvantage - you need SSL certificate signed by known authority that will verfiy in common browsers. So you can’t use self signed certificates because everyone will see a warning entering your site. Certs are quite expensive so I started searching for free one and to my surprise I found such! ...
