Monitoring Systems (One)

January 8, 2018 By Albert Valbuena

Monitoring systems or how to get lost in fierce madness. There are many solutions to monitor systems and most of them have some kind of web interface to operate. Choosing the right tool for any job is a tedious task and for a newbie like me it is a bit harder, specially for a sensitive […]

How to enable TLS traffic from the origin server on Cloudflare Argo Tunnel

December 31, 2022 By Albert Valbuena

As it can be read in the last post, setting up a Cloudflare Argo Tunnel to serve web content from home or corporate network without poking holes to it, is quite easy to achieve. In this article I’ll show you how to enable TLS traffic from the origin server on Cloudflare Argo Tunnel. Obviously, you […]

Abandon Linux. How to export and import FreeBSD Jails ‘a la Docker’

April 15, 2019 By Albert Valbuena

FreeBSD Jails is an awesome tool similar to Docker but much older which allows administrators and developers alike to have several securely contained userland environments sharing one kernel. Does it sound familiar? This is operating-system-level virtualization and it’s different than what you find on KVM or Xen camps. For more detailed information I’ve published some […]

How to mitigate DoS attacks with mod_evasive on FreeBSD

March 18, 2019 By Albert Valbuena

Denial of Service attacks or the distributed version of them (DDoS) have been growing throughout the years with their ups and downs. In my view the only thing that will happen to them is even bigger growth. With the advent of IoT devices the next decade will see an increase in these kind of attacks. […]

Networking Dictionary

July 3, 2019 By Albert Valbuena

Because context is also needed, some concepts or historical references will be also shown. This dictionary is an informal one, for a better, accurate, more correct and in depth understanding look somewhere else, like the […]

How to set Apache’s MPM Event and PHP-FPM on FreeBSD

April 1, 2019 By Albert Valbuena

As explained in another article the default Apache’s configuration at compile time sets its multi-processing module (MPM for short) to the pre-fork configuration setting. This is not the best performant configuration for Apache. Out of the box Apache comes compiled in its safest form, from the processing mode perspective since the pre-fork setting will open […]

How to configure Apache HTTP as a reverse proxy on FreeBSD

March 28, 2021 By Albert Valbuena

Apache HTTP as a reverse proxy consists on setting an Apache HTTP server as a frontal access for one or multiple backend servers. In the recent years many have started using NGINX as a reverse proxy since this piece of software really shines for serving static content an acting as a cache server. This doesn’t […]

The CentOS party is over, isn’t it?

December 26, 2020 By Albert Valbuena

Disclaimer: What you are about to read may contain inaccuracies. Feel free to discuss them somewhere else. This is also my opinion and as such it may change through time, maybe tomorrow, next month, next year, next decade or never. I do also make very few reviews (if any) of what I write here, so […]

September 26, 2021 By Albert Valbuena

On that piece a basic install of AWStats is shown, however, a nice and important functionality of AWStats is missing.
