This (and related gists) captures how i created my docker swarm architecture. This is intended mostly for my own notes incase i need to re-creeate anything later! As such expect some typos and possibly even an error...

Installation Step-by-Step

Each major task has its own gist, this is to help with maitainability long term.

1. Install Debian VM for each docker host
2. install Docker
3. Configure Docker Swarm
4. Install Portainer
5. Install KeepaliveD
6. glusterFS disk prep, install & config

# example:

range_of_ints = range(0, 500_000_000_000_000)
squared_ints = LazyList(range_of_ints, lambda v: v**2)

print(len(squared_ints) == len(range_of_ints))  # -> True
print(squared_ints) # -> LazyList([0, 1, 4, 9, 16, ..., 249999999999999000000000000001])
print(squared_ints[55:100]) # -> LazyList([3025, 3136, 3249, 3364, 3481, ..., 9801])
print(squared_ints[500]) # -> 250000

Today, on the 27th of March 2021, The Coding Den was subjected to a social engineering attack that lead to a brief hostile takeover of the server before the situation was brought under control by staff. We are sharing this statement as a public service announcement on the methodology used in the scam and possible remediations to prevent it, in order to help other staff teams avoid becoming victims of it.

Methodology

The attack proliferates as follows:

1. The attacker will look for a staff member who is presently offline. This will ensure that it appears as if the staff member's account was globally banned and forcefully booted offline.
2. It is within the attacker's interest to choose a target with the highest possible privileges (to do the maximum amount of damage), meaning that they will likely prefer administrators over moderators and so forth.
3. The attacker will create a new Discord account with the same name and profile picture as the target.
4. The attacker will approach a staff member, claiming
