For Fedora you can just do

sudo dnf install vagrant-libvirt

Bottom line... using Mitnick in this way, especially adding him to the board... is KnowBe4's way of telling me how they view themselves. It's their warning, in a way. A way of expressing who their target audience is.

Just like 🌶 did with him. They knew that their primary audience wasn't IT pros, but buyers looking for big names and flashy acts on stage rather than technical know how and expertise. That both of them use Mitnick in the same way is very telling.

If this is a systemd distro, you can just create a timer and service. That way instead of sending a mail message, it's automatically part of the logging for that unit.

If it's a recent version of systemd, you can have a user based systemd that doesn't need escalated privileges. I just finished setting up borg for backup since I'm on Fedora Silverblue now (couldn't use the old way), and I just set up user based systemd units to do the backup.

FYI visual studio code has vim extensions that all you to enter command mode and switch back to plain vanilla vsc

You need to setup the EC2 instance with a WAN Dynamic IP (Elastic IP address). Then just go through the Internet gateway and have the security group blocking incoming traffic over the Dynamic IP provided to the EC2 instance.

@FiyaFly said in Github for code storage:

I've been using Bitbucket for private repos, and I didn't run into any issues with them, but man I scoured a year ago trying to find the best alternatives because I didn't want to pay for Github. This is awesome.

Why not GitLab which has always been free, and is totally open source?

It was long enough ago that I would have to review my notes, but I think it had to do with data encryption, and at the time I saw BitBucket had a plugin for that.

If memory serves, that plugin actually didn't work, and I never had the time nor energy to go on another hunt. Was attempting to adhere to data encryption standards here at work because some of my stuff might have identifiable information in it.

Also a lot of things have changed since then, and even with this new advent, I'll still have to review where things stand with requirements, desires, and focus.

Currently I mostly use the private repo for my notes storage on my general tasks. Originally it was a factor of I was just getting into using Git for anything and wanted to ensure I had a backup of my notes somewhere. This was not something
my employer would participate in, and almost certainly my boss would have rejected my request for approval, mostly for arbitrary reasons. Since I certainly have 'sensitive' information in my notes, I wanted to ensure that I stayed properly aligned with any and all compliances that may have applied.

Since then... those aren't details to get into on a post, but suffice it to say I have the most care for those compliances in my department.

Seems like any mapped drive would work. I don't think it's a special share of some sort.

@DustinB3403 said in ClamAV not showing infected files in logs:

sudo clamscan -r /folder/to/scan/ | grep FOUND >> /path/to/save/report/file.txt

The command above also grabs NOT_FOUND

Exact command to find just FOUND should be:

sudo clamscan -r /folder/to/scan/ | grep " FOUND" >> /path/to/save/report/file.txt

@IRJ said in Massive speed increase when switching WordPress from apache to nginx:

I really wanted to do everything server side and be as lean as possible. I wanted zero plugins related to performance on my WP site.

Lean WP, that's an oxymoron if anything 🙂

I've heard before that some sites are slower with cloudflare CDN compared to going straight to the site. Are you using http/2 as well?

Most likely in this case, the switch to nginx from apache itself didn't make anything noticeably faster but the caching and compression did.

@FATeknollogee said in Vultr backups:

This isn't exactly related to OP's post...
It would be nice if there was a "clean & easy" way to "migrate" your vm's from Vultr to say a co-lo.

If you use a DevOps system, then there always is. If you use normal backups like Veeam, it's easy, too. Same with any platform, platforms don't make lock in, that comes from how it is set up. It's as easy to go from Vultr to colo as from anything else to colo.

And ideally their own category, not It Career.

@DustinB3403 said in What is the difference between Dead and Failed for service status?:

@IRJ Did you look at journalctl to see what the logs say?

He doesn't care about why things are failed. He just wants the states. It is for monitoring and automation.

@black3dynamite said in Help finding pid file for a service:

Can zabbix do the something similar like monit?

It's likely. I'm not familiar with zabbix, but I just decided to try monit and so far I'm liking it.
