Chef Bootstrapper For SuSE/SLES

Installation

Note: Run this script as the root user (no sudo calls are used in the script).

You will need the curl package installed, though I would have no idea why it wouldn't be installed by default:

zypper --non-interactive install curl

Vagrant Setup

This tutorial guides you through creating your first Vagrant project.

We start with a generic Ubuntu VM, and use the Chef provisioning tool to:

• install packages for vim, git
• create user accounts, as specified in included JSON config files
• install specified user dotfiles (.bashrc, .vimrc, etc) from a git repository

Afterwards, we'll see how easy it is to package our newly provisioned VM

Boostrap the Synology DS215j with optware, ipkg, and sudo

Inspired mostly from the Bootstrap DS215j blog post

Download & Install ipkg in a persistent manner

# Create a directory that won't get nuked during DSM security updates
mkdir /volume1/@optware
cd /volume1/@optware

i would like to think about the _really_ important IT books.
funny enough most of them will come cheap since they're decades old.

building internet firewalls
snmp, snmpv2 and rmon
high availability network fundamentals
optimizing nfs performance
unix shell objects
