Mac Network Commands Cheat Sheet

Disclaimer: I'm not the original author of this sheet, but can't recall where I found it. If you know the author, please let me know so I give the attribution.

The original author seems to be Charles Edge, here's the original content, as pointed out by @percisely.

Note: Since this seems to be helpful to some people, I formatted it to improve readability of the original. Also, note that this is from 2016, many things may have changed, and I don't use macOS anymore, so I probably can't help in case of questions, but maybe someone else can.

After writing up the presentation for MacSysAdmin in Sweden, I decided to go ahead and throw these into a quick cheat sheet for anyone who’d like to have them all in one place. Good luck out there, and s

This script presents the latest lines of your LAMP server log files, emulating the tail() function. Layout is nice and responsive. I chose to include inline the CSS and JS to have the ease-of-use of a single, "drop-in", file. If your site is hosted on a Gandi Simplehosting server, it should just work out of the box.

OpenConnect VPN on Mac OS X

Unfortunately, the Cisco AnyConnect client for Mac conflicts with Pow. And by "conflicts", I mean it causes a grey-screen-of-death kernel panic anytime you connect to the VPN and Pow is installed.

As an alternative, there is OpenConnect, a command-line client for Cisco's AnyConnect SSL VPN.

Here's how to get it set up on Mac OS X:

  1. OpenConnect can be installed via homebrew:

     brew update
    

brew install openconnect
