Disable Cron Mail

March 8th, 2010

It’s a really fustrating feature , cron keeps sending mails with the output of every job it executes.
You can disable this per job by editing the crontab file (# crontab -e) and reddirecting the stdout (output messages) and/or stderr (error messages) to /dev/null.

for stdout:

0 * * * * /path/to/script.sh > /dev/null

for stdout and stderr:

0 * * * * /path/to/script.sh &> /dev/null

Or you can globally disable it with the MAILTO variable:

# echo 'MAILTO=""' >> /etc/default/cron

Cannot save cisco running-config to startup-config

March 8th, 2010

If you cannot save the running config to startup-config on a cisco router/switch be sure to check your config-register, if it’s inappropriately configured the router/switch will ignore the startup-config.
The factory-default setting for the configuration register is 0×2102.

Check it by issuing a show version command in privileged EXEC mode:

router#show version

A little bit of shopping

August 31st, 2009

Am făcut zilele astea unpic de cumpărături, ce mai exact?

Păăăăi pentru început, după cum a observat şi Emil, mi-am luat un VPS si am mutat tot ce inseama http si webservices pe el.
De ce am făcut asta? Pentru că am prostul obicei să mă joc cu hw-ul şi cu sistemele de operare deci blogul avea mai mult downtime decât uptime. Să sperăm că lucrurile vor sta altfel acum :) .


img_4437 Am mai luat două routere Cisco 1721 fiecare cu un WIC-2T şi un WIC-1ENET şi un switch Cisco WS-C2924-XL-EN pentru micul meu laborator Cisco/CCNA.
Din păcate deocamdată nu apucasem să mă joc cu ele, sper să imi fac pe săptămana viitoare.



img_4385 Şi nu în ultimul rând am luat o carcasă nouă, un Antec Mini P180 pentru serverul meu (dakara). Carcasa mea veche (Un Asus ordinar) începuse să vibreze din cauza hdd-urilor de mă scotea din minţi. Sper sa revin cu un mini-review pe mâine-poimâine.
