MarkM 0 #28 March 28, 2005 I love perl, makes my life so much easier. Just did a move of 150 websites to another ISP(we sold off our unit) and used perl everywhere to automate the transition. No idea what Unix admins did before perl. Maybe they had to actually do work or something. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkyDaemon 0 #31 March 28, 2005 That's awesome! Perl makes system administration something that can be accomplished. Doing everything in shell scripts or C got really old, really fast. It's nice to be able to automate so many things with PERL.

SkyDaemon 0 #38 March 28, 2005 It's all over the map, and mostly in hacking all sorts of different modules to get along with one another. Although a part of the project that was rather cool and did involve regexs was this apache virtualhost config. This is a pretty cool apache config, when combined with a wildcard DNS entry in BIND specified with: ########BIND Entry################## *.domain.tld. IN A 10.0.0.1 ########BIND Entry################## will accept connections to wildcard subdomains, and parse the correct document root based on the subdomain. Thus if you setup a document root, it's immediately accessible via the web through a tertiary domain. While the following isn't ultra elegant it's pretty darn good. ########Apache Config################ LogFormat "%V %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %s %b" vcommon CustomLog "| /usr/local/bin/whw/advxsplitlogfile" vcommon RewriteEngine On RewriteLogLevel 2 ErrorDocument 500 /cgi-bin/error_document.pl ErrorDocument 404 /cgi-bin/error_document.pl ServerName vhost.webhostworks.net RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.([^.]*)\.([^.]*)$ RewriteRule ^(.+) %{HTTP_HOST}$1 [C] RewriteRule ^(.*)\.([^.]*)\.([^.]*)/(.*) /home/www/$1\.$2\.$3/$4 [L] RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)\.([^.]*)$ RewriteRule ^(.+) %{HTTP_HOST}$1 [C] RewriteRule ^(.*)\.([^.]*)/(.*) /home/www/$1\.$2/$3 [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/cgi-bin/ RewriteRule ^/cgi-bin/(.*)$ /usr/local/www/cgi-bin/$1 [L] RewriteRule ^(.*) %{SERVER_NAME}$1 RewriteRule ^(www|ftp)\.(.*) $2 RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} ^(.*)\.([^.]*)\.([^.]*)$ RewriteRule ^(.*)\.([^.]*)\.([^.]*)/(.*) /home/www/$2\.$3/$1/$4 [L] RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/(.*)$ /home/www/$1/$2 RewriteLog /var/log/httpd/rewrite_log.vhost RewriteLogLevel 9 AllowOverride All Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks Includes AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl AddHandler server-parsed .html #######/Apache Config################ This, when combined with a bunch of additional configs to my e-commerce engine, will allow me to create new websites at temporary tertiary URLs almost immediately. Whlie that particularly technology isn't new and extra special, the fact that I can do it with tertiaries makes for an elegant naming convention and UI for customers. The cool perl code comes into play as the underlying e-commerce engine which is abstract and clever enough to adapt to the tertiary convention and then switch over to FQDN when one becomes available (i.e the customer purchases on, or transfers their existing one to our hosting service, or just sticks with the tertiary setup.). It's pretty cool stuff. :-) -=Raistlinfind / -name jumpers -print; cat jumpers $USER > manifest; cd /dev/airplane; more altitude; make jump; cd /pub; more beer; Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkyDaemon 0 #43 March 29, 2005 Until about a month ago, I had a P166 that had been running FreeBSD 4.5 for almost 6 years non-stop. It was a little server that I loved dearly. I'll hand it to those quantum disks... they could just keep going. As well as the P166. It was a cute little system with 64M of EDO RAM in SIMM format. It had a dual speed CD Rom, a 5-1/4" disk, and a 3.5" disk combination drive (pretty fancy eh?). It just kept on humming along though. I finally retired it, and replaced it's functions, but damn it was a great little box. -=Raistlinfind / -name jumpers -print; cat jumpers $USER > manifest; cd /dev/airplane; more altitude; make jump; cd /pub; more beer; Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although lately it seems the ports I'm interestedi n are broken... oh well, building from source seems more organic anyways. (although the ports tree is just -too- cool!) A Pentium 75? You win the old computer/nerd contest. Using it for a firewall/router is perfect too. My friend did some benchmarking and found his P166 running FreeBSD could out-route a Cisco 2600.
