Mini tutorial for configuring client-side SSL certificates.

Client-side SSL

For excessively paranoid client authentication.


Updated Apr 5 2019:

because this is a gist from 2011 that people stumble into and maybe you should AES instead of 3DES in the year of our lord 2019.

some other notes:

Prefix key

The default prefix is C-b. If you (or your muscle memory) prefer C-a, you need to add this to ~/.tmux.conf:

remap prefix to Control + a

AutoHotkey script to map Caps Lock to Escape when it's pressed on its own and Ctrl when used in combination with another key, à la Steve Losh. Adapted from one that does something similar with the Ctrl Key on the Vim Tips Wiki (http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Map_caps_lock_to_escape_in_Windows?oldid=32281). (Plus contribs from @randy909 & @mmikeww.)

Guide to using drip with JRuby

#Overview drip is an awesome command line tool that can be used to dramatically lower perceived JVM startup time. It does this by preloading an entirely new JVM process\instance and allowing you to simply use the preloaded environment. This has extraordinary results with jruby.

We reduced time to run rake environment from 13 seconds to a mere 3.5 seconds. This is actually at or near MRI 1.9.3p327 (with falcon patch) speeds!

Adding a few addition jruby options will reduce startup time even further (down to 1.69 seconds).

#Install Drip Install drip if you haven't already (see https://github.com/flatland/drip)

Opening and closing an SSH tunnel in a shell script the smart way

Opening and closing an SSH tunnel in a shell script the smart way

I recently had the following problem:

  • From an unattended shell script (called by Jenkins), run a command-line tool that accesses the MySQL database on another host.
  • That tool doesn't know that the database is on another host, plus the MySQL port on that host is firewalled and not accessible from other machines.

We didn't want to open the MySQL port to the network, but it's possible to SSH from the Jenkins machine to the MySQL machine. So, basically you would do something like

ssh -L 3306:localhost:3306 remotehost
