I need to install a Let's Encrypt SAN Certificate, so that multiple domains can use Let's Encrypt. I am currently running AWS Linux (basically RedHat). Does anyone have a good "go to" set of directions on how to create a Let's Encrypt SAN Certificate on AWS Linux?

Thanks

bash script

Hi Experts

Scenario

In this server, we have a directory called /important

We need to backup this directory every hour to a different path to /backup

Then check if the backup successful we need to remove the data from /important

For this, we need you to write for us a shell script, which can do this task for us automatically every hour

Note: we need to specify the time stamp for the backup files

i have this question and i need full answer i manged just to fix the first part which includes making the backup with time stamp

but i need the other part

1- check if the backup successful remove the data from /important

Solution

#!/bin/bash
backup=/backup/important-`date +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M`.tar
tar -cvf "$backup" /important

nagiosxi strange issue

Hi Experts

we have in our environment NAgios-XI the commercial version of Nagios

and i am monitoring file systems under red-hat box and everything was ok no issues

yesterday i extend the filesystem from 1.3 TB to 2.9 TB and after one day i start to get critical massage from Nagios-XI

[root@nagios ~]# /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H 192.168.42.11 -t 30 -c check_disk -a '-w 50% -c 80% -p /oracle/RAN/oraarch'
DISK CRITICAL - free space: /oracle/RAN/oraarch 2291546 MB (77.93% inode=100%);| /oracle/RAN/oraarch=648895MB;1471509;588603;0;2943018

but this is not true the file system status like this

/dev/mapper/oraarch-oraarch 2.9T 632G 2.2T 22% /oracle/RAN/oraarch

so only 22% used from this file system

i am monitoring another file systems on the same box and the everything ok just this file system so it cannot be agent issue on the red hat box

any idea here

thanks

How do I get ssh access back to my centos linux vm if I'm locked out due to selinux policies?

My coworker turned on some selinux policies and now we can't ssh back into the linux vm which is hosted on azure cloud.

This is a centos vm hosted on Azure cloud. I'm not able to ssh into the machine anymore. How do I get inside the machine to disable the policy?

I'm having issues with my haproxy servers (running Ubuntu 16.04) rejecting new connections (or timing them out) after a certain threshold. The proxy servers are AWS c5.large EC2's with 2 cpus and 4GB of ram. The same configuration is used for both connection types on our site, we have one for websocket connections which typically have between 2K-4K concurrent connections and a request rate of about 10/s. The other is for normal web traffic with nginx as the backend with about 400-500 concurrent connections and a request rate of about 100-150/s. Typical cpu usage for both is about 3-5% on the haproxy process, with 2-3% of the memory used for the websocket proxy (40-60MB) and 1-3% of the memory used for the web proxy (30-40MB).

Per the attached config, the cpus are mapped across both cpus, with one process and two threads running. Both types of traffic are typically 95% (or higher) SSL traffic. I've watched the proxy info using watch -n 1 'echo "show info" | socat unix:/run/haproxy/admin.sock -' to see if I'm hitting any of my limits, which does not seem to be the case.

During high traffic time, and when we start to see issues, is when our websocket concurrent connections gets up to about 5K and web requests rate gets up to 400 requests/s. I mention both servers here because I know the config can handle the high concurrent connections and request rate, but I'm missing some other resource limit being reached. Under …

A computer has a Linux Mint installation and a Windows 10 installation - in dual boot.
Currently there is not enough space with the current portioning size to install Office 365 on the Windows partition.
Therefore the Linux partition has to be made smaller.
How can this be done?
Thanks in advance.

We have an Ubuntu Server (Xenial) that will never touch the internet. We can't query the Ubuntu Repo from another Ubuntu Server that has Internet access, how can we get the packages we need, with all dependencies?

Ive usually installed PHP via:-

sudo apt install php libapache2-mod-php php-mysql

Open in new window

Which works great and installs the latest version of PHP and configures everything fine :-)

Problem is I want some of my sites to run on PHP 5 (for historical purposes), some to run on the current version of PHP 7 and some to run on a future version of PHP 7 for testing.

On my hosting website, I can add a line into the vhost configuration to tell it what version of PHP to run, for example to run PHP7 I just add this into the htaccess file and it runs the site with PHP 7:-

AddType application/x-httpd-php70 .php

This is exactly what I want to do, however all the guides Ive found online talk about running everything under the same version, but not individual sites.

Anyone got any ideas on this?

Ideally I want to download different versions of PHP into a folder \PHP\PHP7.3\ and then inside htaccess point to use \PHP\PHP7.3\ or something different.

Im using Ubuntu server with Apache if that helps, and this is only for development purposes, not production.

Dear All,

In the past few weeks, I noticed the mailcleaner gateway was being targeted with bruteforce and spam attacks from Russia and Iran, I deployed country block plugin on my firewall and blocked entire CIDR for both Russia and Iran and kept an eye on Mailcleaner for any attacks with authentication attempts.

Since then, I noticed the mailcleaner disk has went up from 25% to 76% with the path /var/mailcleaner/spam/ and all domains included full of spam files with size up to 35 GB.

I have few questions to clean some space and prior to that also.

Are those spam files ?
Are they released or not?
Is it safe to delete them?

Thank you

I have an ESXi Server in which I have a VM that I would like to utilize a USB device from a remote location from the server although it is still on the same LAN.

I have read that there are USB over IP devices available that would achieve what I am after. Can someone make a recommendation.

The VM is running linux and there is a possibility I could run it in docker as well. Is this still possible with Docker?

No DNS and trying to deploy a vCenter appliance with a reverse lookup requirement.

Anyone know how to create a reverse lookup without DNS to sorta trick the vCenter appliance to install? I believe the requirement is on the vCenter side and not the windows machine I'm using for the upgrade but if that's the case, I'd need a reverse for windows. I don't think I can do this with the hosts file but I don't know.

Thanks in advance

Where is NTP configuration held on a Linux server? For example, you can can find NTP info from Windows in the registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters. Any help with this is greatly appreciated!
