Just ate at Luke’s over on 16th street and Indian School. I have since found myself in a food coma. Pray for me.

Well today was going to be an easy Friday until I learned Authorize.net suffered a major fire. Getting customers left and right about it, plus people can’t but from our site right now. Totally sucks

This article has been invaluable to me for ssl management on virtuozzo based servers. Hope it helps all of you!

For Virtuozzo 3.x/2.6.x version you may use the following instructions:

Let assume we have the container #101 with IP address 192.168.1.1 and hostname plesk.example.com.

1. Take SSL certificate from the container #101, it is accessible as /vz/root/101/usr/local/psa/admin/conf/httpsd.pem file on a hardware node and split it to separate files 192.168.1.1.crt and 192.168.1.1.key files which contain certificate and private key parts accordingly. Place these files into a Service Container in /vz/root/1/etc/vzcp directory.

2. Add the following section in the end of /vz/root/1/etc/vzcp/httpd.conf file for the Virtuozzo 3.x:
ServerName “plesk.example.com”
ProxyPreserveHost On

RequestHeader set X_VZCP_API_VERSION 30000
RequestHeader set X_VZCP_PROXY_MODE 1
RequestHeader set X_VZCP_PSA_PORT 8443
RequestHeader set X_VZCP_PSA_PROTO https
RequestHeader set X_VZCP_PSA_BASE_URL /vz/cp/psa/frameset
RequestHeader set X_VZCP_PSA_NOSERV_URL /vz/cp/psa/noservice
RequestHeader set X_VZCP_PSA_RESTORE_URL /vz/cp/psa/restore_session
RequestHeader set X_VZCP_PSA_PASSWD_URL /vz/cp/restore-password

SSLEngine on
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/?$ /vz/cp/psa/frameset [R]
RewriteRule ^/vz/cp/?$ /vz/cp/psa/frameset [R]
RewriteRule ^/login\.php3.*$ /vz/cp/psa/frameset [R]
RewriteRule ^/(vz|psa|favicon.ico) – [L]
RewriteRule ^(/.*)$ http://%{SERVER_ADDR}:8880$1 [P,QSA]

SSLCertificateFile “/etc/vzcp/192.168.1.1.crt”
SSLCertificateKeyFile “/etc/vzcp/192.168.1.1.key”

SetEnv VZCP_PORT 8443
SetEnv VZCP_MODE_PLESK yes
SetEnv VZCP_PSA_BASE_URL /vz/cp/psa/frameset

ErrorDocument 502 “/vz/cp/psa/noservice”

If you need to use CA Certificate, also add SSLCACertificatePath directive and specify the path to the file that contains CA Certificate.

NOTE: if you have Virtuozzo 2.6.2 installed please change X_VZCP_API_VERSION to 20602 so that the corresponding line looks like this:

RequestHeader set X_VZCP_API_VERSION 20602

3. You may set the ServerName or check that it is possible to resolve hostname by IP from inside a Service Container. You may add this line into /etc/hosts inside a Service Container if needed:

192.168.1.1 plesk.example.com

4. Restart the ‘vzcp’ service inside a Service Container:

# vzctl exec 1 service vzcp restart

Testing out wordpress apps for the g1

Alright, it is currently almost 2010 and I still see postings on Craigslist without images…. What gives!?  I may just be an arrogant ass, but who doesn’t have a digicam these days, or at least a friend with one?  Hell, even 90% of cell phones being sold right now have one stock.  If you want my business you gotta have images… kinda need proof your items exist, it’s not like you’re selling Jesus himself or something.  If it’s lack of knowledge of image hosting companies, there’s tons out there:

Just to rattle off a few.  Come on people, get modern with your shit!

Hands down the friendliest hookah shop I know of.  If you want to come smoke in relative quiet where you can actually hear your friends, or hear other smokers well enough to talk to them, this is the place.  Here you are waited on by the hosts/owners Mike and his family.  You don’t have to manage the coals, nor are there ever a shortage of coals as is my big problem with larger establishments.  Mike concentrates on user experience and interaction, making sure the customer is taken care of.  Typically Mya acrylics are use for 1-2 users, but larger hookahs are available upon request.  The house tobacco of choice is Fusion, which he has stocked to over 20 different flavors.  To further entice a visit, it is conveniently located next to a Denny’s, Filibertos, and Samurai comics.  So far 70’s shop has been open with bringing in outside food and drinks, so feel free to visit these places before going. I strongly suggest visiting if you are in the Phoenix area.

Here is the store’s information

LINK

I hate you, with a passion.

So, you’ve decided you want to setup a symlink, well look no further! It is a fun tool that is most commonly used to set up a shortcut or a filesystem redirect.  Well the full explaination of one and how it works can be found at this page .  But really, it is quite simple:

ln -s target linkname

target=where you want to the shortcut to go

linkname=where you want to name the shortcut

Here are a couple examples:

Say you’re tired of typing in a full path to something like a web root, you can setup something like this:

ln -s /var/www/vhosts/google.com/httpdocs/ /root/google.com

Then when you log in as root, you can just do cd google.com and be dumped into web root

Alternatively, say you moved mission critical files for a program like libs to a different dir for tidiness reasons and adjusting the code would take too long, you can just symlink it to save time!

ln -s newdir olddir

so ln -s /usr/local/php5 /usr/local/php4 would direct all calls to the php4 dir to the php5 dir, where all of your new libs are.
