Services for Unix tutorial. Explaining how to configure a Windows 2000 Active Directory domain so that Windows users can login to Unix hosts. SFU uses a NIS server component running on all domain controllers to handle user authentication. There are also NFS server components for sharing out Windows filesystems while maintaining file permissions.

Tomcat Java application server configuration on Solaris 7,8 and 9.

Nagios monitoring server installation on Solaris 10 using WebInject for web services testing.

Squid proxy server setup with content filtering and NTLM authentication.

Solaris 10 raid setup. This document explains how to software mirror a disk after initial installation. It also covers how to create the state partitions required on a disk that has no free space.

Solaris 10 zone configuration. This document explains how to perform the most essential tasks associated with managing Solaris 10 zones. Including zone backup, duplication and migration.

Mod_auth_xradius compilation on Solaris 7,8 and 9. We wanted to use this module to setup a duel authentication system with handheld RSA devices authentication against an AAA radius server. Unfortunately the module was written for Linux so these changes were needed.

Resizing HPUX volumes. Notes on how to resize a volume on HPUX 11. This assumes that someone has already setup the system with one disk and has fully allocated all of the space. This guide shows how to steal some space from the swap partition so that the raid metadata slices can be created. Then goes on to show how to software mirror the first disk to the second without losing any data.

Kerberos/LDAP on Linux. Brief documentation and configuration files for setting up Kerberos and LDAP on Linux to authenticate users against a Windows 2000 domain controller.

Useful Gentoo things. Just a couple of useful things to change in Gentoo. Like removing the default keywords and changing the NLS default language. There's also a good backup shell script which will create a tar.bz2 of your disk.

Create an s390x cross compiler. If you have ever played with the Hercules s390x (zSeries) emulator then you will know that compiling programs can be a real pain. The CPU emulation even on a new spec machine runs around 50 times slower than the intel version. Therefore why not do heavy processor intensive tasks like compiling programs on your intel linux machine and make it spit out s390x architecture binaries.
