I am a busy guy. Answering comments takes precious time from my daily life so don’t get mad if I don’t reply you back quickly or if I just don’t do. Plus, think twice before posting. If you really have something interesting to say, just go ahead. If that is something you really think I’d […]

How to replace a disk on a ZFS mirror pool

February 14, 2021 By Albert Valbuena

It’s happened to me, it’s happened to you, it’s happened more than one million times and it will still happen in the future. You run out of disk space or a disk fails. Nowadays you are using ZFS, and instead of having a fancy RAIDZ, because you still don’t need it, you are using a […]

How to upgrade MariaDB on FreeBSD

March 30, 2020 By Albert Valbuena

As we all know a best practice recommendation that has been made forever, and forever many are just skipping, is running up to date software and it is one of the core fundamentals of IT. If you happen to use MariaDB on FreeBSD, the official guide on their website may not be that all helpful […]

How to connect a FreeBSD box to the internet through an Android device via an USB port

January 12, 2019 By Albert Valbuena

FreeBSD is known to be very suitable for computer servers, from Netflix streaming to Whatsapp messaging as powerful examples. Some also use FreeBSD as a workstation OS. I am one of those using BSD on both camps, although I also use some GNU/Linux boxes for ‘trivial’ purposes. In modern times having an internet connection seems […]

Microsoft’s Patch Tuesday – April 2020

April 17, 2020 By Albert Valbuena

For the first time here at adminbyaccident.com I will share some information about Windows patching that I hope can shed some light and help people on deciding what to patch and how quickly to patch. Digesting Microsoft’s Patch Tuesday releases is always tricky. The amount of information is overwhelming and since almost every company on […]

How to detect a WAF – Web Application Firewall

May 16, 2021 By Albert Valbuena

From a penetration testing perspective to identify if a Web Application Firewall (WAF) is in place is essential. The next question is, does an administrator need to know this? My view is, anyone who is in charge of any system that has implemented some sort of WAF needs to verify this tool is working, at […]

How to work with Nessus scan results

May 18, 2020 By Albert Valbuena

Working with Nessus scan results is easy. How do I know that? Because I’ve worked with this tool for some time and although I do not know every corner of the things I’ve been doing some scans and solving quite a few deffects on systems that were labeled as ‘production ready’ when they clearly weren’t.

The firewall

April 23, 2017 By Albert Valbuena

If you don’t know why you need a firewall it’s because you are not very tech savy. Don’t worry. You can discover by yourself why you need one. The router sitting in your house has one installed in it. And please don’t disable that by any mean. You can check why a firewall is important […]
