What’s about me?
I was having some performance problems with my Postfix+amavisd-new setup, it was sending just about 25 mails per minute. As it’s used to send (among other things) commercial campaigns via email it was not enough so I had to research a little about how to improve the service performance without having to take off the [...]

SynCE following
this wiki entry.
It was pretty straight ahead compilation, just encountered some minor problems which I could fix really easily. First we need to install subversion and [...]
I was looking for an easy way to take away the Cisco VPN client for an open source solution,
vpnc. It’s a quite simple solution, which allows to convert Cisco profile files to its own configuration format and just works.
First take you .pcf file and convert it:
pcf2vpnc /path/to/file.pcf > /etc/vpnc/file.conf
The file.conf will look like the [...]

OpenWRT/Kamikaze my WRT54GS has experienced some freezes, really annoying ones, so I decided to try out
DD-WRT.
I needed to flash DD-WRT from command line as I had my OpenWRT without any web interface so after some reading around I have finally deduced a way to do it:
OpenWRT# cd /tmp
OpenWRT# wget [...]

megaupload without a Windoze machine.
What’s needed? just
Wine and
RapGet, configure you’re megaupload premium account (or rapidshare, etc) and start downloading whatever you want .
HowTo?
$ wine RapGet.exe
And you’re done!

Red Hat servers and need to…save bandwidth? save licenses? or even don’t want your servers go to Internet? Then all you need is to create a yum mirror in order to keep them all up to date .
What do we need?
Apache.
mrepo.
Some management licenses from Red Hat (these are needed [...]
It’s been some time since I tried previous versions of
Enlightenment, since then I have heard lots of good things about its 0.17 version (E17), so yesterday I decided to check it out.
Getting it installed on my
Sabayon was easy thanks to
Gentoo’s overlays. The process starts as follows:
# layman -a enlightenment
# emerge -Dpv e [...]
Tags: E17, Enlightenment, Linux, sabayonWell I have first version of a script which I think will help me to grab EPG data and store it in XMLTV format. I’m just using standard Linux shell tools, tzap (from media-tv/linuxtv-dvb-apps) and tv_grab_dvb.
You can have a look to the script
here, I’m pretty sure should be other ways to accomplish this task [...]
Lastly I’m having trouble to get net-misc/zaptel compiled because the following error:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.2/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: tonezone.lo: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `builtin_zones’ can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
tonezone.lo: could not read symbols: Bad value

make: *** [libtonezone.so] Error 1
I haven’t figured out yet why, but I have a temporary solution [...]

Sabayon Linux on her new laptop (Xmas gift!) cause I wanted something where she could develop her skills without having to deal with every detail.
Sabayon Linux is based on
Gentoo, so she gets a full user experience having a versatile operating system under her feet.
For now almost everything is [...]
