Update 2021-01-03: I haven’t used Pulse VPN on Linux since August 2018, so I don’t know if these instructions still work or are needed. First off, you need to obtain the Pulse Secure client as a deb file from your network administrator. I have version 8.2R5. For some reason the client does not list any dependencies when installing so you must install the needed (32 bit) libraries by hand (PulseClient.sh does not work without changes):...
After using Linux Mint with Cinnamon for a long time I am now back with Ubuntu with GNOME (reluctantly, I may add). One thing I have noticed is there does not seem to be an option in the settings to change your preferred terminal emulator. Luckily it can be changed in several other ways, The generic fix in a terminal, write $ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.terminal exec tilix In this case I have changed to the Tilixterminal emulator....
I decided to upgrade my web server containers to PHP 7 but ran into a problem with WordPress, all articles had no text. The problem seemed to be within the plugin CodeColorer since disabling it resolved the problem PHP Warning: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is no longer supported, use preg_replace_callback instead in /var/www/wp-content/plugins/codecolorer/codecolorer-core.php on line 50 In wp-content/plugins/codecolorer/codecolorer-core.php locate this code block: /** Search content for code tags and replace it */ function BeforeHighlightCodeBlock($content) { $content = preg_replace('#(\s*)\[cc([^\s\]_]*(?...
I’vve been running KVM for quite a while on my lab server. It’s been running without issue but with the release of vSphere/ESXi 6.0 I felt it was time to move back to VMware. I wanted to preserve the virtual machines already running so I set out to move these to ESXi. I ran into some issues which I’m not sure is a generic problem or specific to ESXi 6.0 but I’ll describe what I have done....
As mentioned in my previous post I synchronize my wallpaper folder between my desktop computers. While the are various ways of setting a random desktop background (XFCE - which I use - has this built in), I’ve had to conclude it’s just easier from the command line. In XFCE it is not possible to do this from cron it seems, so I made a script which is run at start-up:...
My collection– Enjoy. (This is the same folder I use for randomized backgrounds on my computers)...
If you have the need to wake up machines on your local LAN from the outside, there are a few steps you need to take to get it working with OpenWRT (12.09) Select an unused IP address (which you are certain will never, ever be used). I will be using 192.168.1.254 in the following Log into OpenWRT and go to System → Startup → Local Startup (the text input at the bottom of the page) and add this line above exit 0: ip neigh add 192....
I have recently moved my hosting to a couple of VPSes at ChicagoVPS and wanted to use IPv6 tunnelbroker.net ChicagoVPS uses OpenVZ which presents a couple of problems $ ifconfig sit0 sit0: error fetching interface information: Device not found $ sudo modprobe ipv6 FATAL: Module ipv6 not found. It turns out, this is a fairly common problem though OpenVZ is supposed to support IPv6. Luckily, someone made a small userland program tb-tun, which “tunnels” IPv6 tunnels through a TUN/TAP device....
