Freindster* is one of the most popular global social network in the internet today. Just like any other social networking site, Freindster is all about connecting to people and making friends. Search for old friends and classmates, stay in better touch with friends, share photos and videos, and so much more!
*Misspelling of Friendster was intended.
Apple had open their system for pre-order of their much awaited iPad. April 3 is the start of shipping of the iPad.
It feels like everyone is very much looking forward for this neat device. Although the device is getting tons of positive buzz, there will always be some flaws on that ‘perfect product’.
Check out this spoof video, an ipad parody of the missing features of the IpAd such as a built-in camera, printing support, voice and others.
Funny.
Today’s topic is all about Access List… For Unix and Unix-like system, the usual command to set the file permission is the ‘chmod’ command. However there are instances that we need more flexibility in giving access and control for files and folders. Get it? Access and Control? In this situation, there is a file utility built in Unix called ‘getfacl‘ and ‘setfacl‘.
getfacl is a file utility for viewing the access control list information associated with a file or directory.
For a memory aid, you can think of ‘getfacl’ as “Get File ACL“.. ACL being Access Control List.
Access control lists are extended attributes added to most major file systems in the 2.6 kernel to improve ability to control the access of files. They allow permissions to be set for individual groups and users and not just the owning user, owning group, and all other users.
setfacl is a command that allows you to set the Access Control List information for a file or directory.
Access control lists are extended attributes added to most major file systems in the 2.6 kernel to improve ability to control the access of files. They allow permissions to be set for individual groups and users and not just the owning user, owning group, and all other users.
You can read man pages for both getfacl and setfacl for more information.
getfacl and setfacl example….
Here’s an example of using the basic funtion of getfacl and setfacl
# getfacl
#setfacl
setfacl -m default:user::rwx,default:group::r-x,default:other:r-x,default:mask:rwx /u06/OneSource/datapump_dbdump
setfacl -m default:user:rcodapp1:r-x,default:group:r-x,default:other:—,default:mas:rwx /u06/OneSouce/datapump_dbdump
Sorry for the long title post. I just want to easily distinguish this post from my other ZFS post. The reason? For this week, I’ll be working on a server with ZFS filesystem and looks like the SAs for the servers is not yet familiar with the filesystem. I am the newest member of the UNIX team and there’s this request to grow a filesystem that is directly mounted from a disk slice.. Told the guy that we may need to modify the disk geometry and we may have to repartition the disk.. Then I noticed that there is a 140G disk under ZFS partition. I will convince the user to use that spare disk for his project.
And here are the cheat sheet for ZFS/zpool that is related to this week’s project.
LimeSurvey (formerly PHPSurveyor) is a Webapplication that interacts with MySQL, MSSQL, orPostgres to develop surveys, publish surveys, andcollect responses to surveys.
Once a survey has been created, data can be inserted into the survey either by a “pretty” public screen which presents each question one at a time, or by a quick and nasty data entry screen. It includes the capacity to generate individualized “tokens”, so that invitation can be issued to participants. It also has the capacity to set conditions on whether questions will display (branching), numerous question types, and a basic statistics function. Changes: A Malay translation was added, several minor bugs were fixed, and translations were updated.
There’s this 2 new Wordpress plugin here in Sysadmindayph dot com (the newest that I installed at least). I just want to share this one for the readers of this blog who is also Wordpress user.
The two new plugins here are:
SEO Smart Link – SEO Smart Links can automatically link keywords and phrases in your posts and comments with corresponding posts, pages, categories and tags on your blog.
Broken Link Checker – This plugin will monitor your blog looking for broken links and let you know if any are found.
Veritas Volume Manager VxVM Basics Commands Cheats.. The authority site for this topic, the VXVM on VXFS, if you do a Google search for any tutorial or command cheat sheet is Cuddletech.
I want to post… say, borrowing, the content of that page to this post for my own personal reference… Love your own page right? And since I am more likely to open SysadminPH that cuddletech, I thought we not copy the Veritas tutorial page here for my ease of access?
SVM: Determine Free Space on Soft Partition , we use the metastat -c command…
[root@localhost] /work/users> metastat -c d103
d103 p 32GB d100
d100 m 68GB d101 d102
d101 s 68GB c1t2d0s0
d102 s 68GB c1t3d0s0
[root@localhost] /work/users> metastat -p d103
d103 -p d100 -o 32 -b 58720256 -o 127926432 -b 8388608
d100 -m d101 d102 1
d101 1 1 c1t2d0s0
d102 1 1 c1t3d0s0
So from the first metastat -c d103.. that’s a mirrored 68G partition, d100 and a 32G soft partition d103.. We still have around 35G of space.

Facebook is almost equivalent to cash nowadays. I read somewhere that Facebook is positive cash! Everyone wants to take advantage on how popular Facebook is. Many are making money (tons of money) with “Facebook” additional services like Facebook games (Farmville), Facebook proxies and other related application for Facebook.
There is a downside of Facebook’s popularity though. It is a large enough site that it is worthwhile for phishers to target users on this site. Facebook phishing website looks almost idential to Facebook real website.
From Facebook Login to Facebook proxy, we’ll be updating this page for any related and relevant news about Facebook! Since everyone is doing post about the most popular social networking site in the internet this is our own way of contributing to the fans.

Here’s some tips in bouncing off NBU client daemon. BMC Netbackup (formerly with Veritas apparently) may have a number of ways to accomplish this (specially if you’re not the backup admin) and depending on the version of the Netbackup software.
The following general guidelines can be used to determine if a restart of NetBackup is required after making changes to the /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf file on a system.
