Github / Anchor Drinkup, Monday 18th Jan 2010
In Brief: Come down to the James Squire Brew house (King Street Wharf, Sydney) for a chance to have a few drinks with guys (and gals) from your friendly hosting company. In addition to this, we’re lucky to have special guests Tom and Scott of Github fame dropping in and you’ll have the [...]
ERROR: SSH agent has too many keys
Unfortunately, SSH doesn’t produce this error, although it darn well should…
I just had a Github customer report that they couldn’t access their repos via SSH, despite it all working properly yesterday, and “not having changed anything”. A bit of debug logging and an inspired leap of intuition on the part of another sysadmin in [...]
Monitor your servers like it’s 1996
Whilst I’m a fan of using percentages for my disk space checks, sometimes an explicit size is more appropriate. So, you’d expect the following to work nicely:
$USER1$/check_disk -w 5G -c 1G -p /data/foo
If you don’t actually test that this works (by artificially filling your disk and seeing what happens), you may be dismayed to [...]
Industry Analysts: Putting the “arse” in Analyst
I’ve never been a real fan of the output of big “industry analysis” firms, since their reports never seemed to really tell the whole story, and didn’t match up with my experiences “in the trenches”. Now I know why. A representative sample:
“I see. So, the companies in your magic quadrant, are they all [...]
Securing your codez from the wily exploit injectors
Remember the good old days, when Melissa and ILOVEYOU were the major virus threats, spreading via e-mail and causing all sorts of embarrassing conversations at work? Or maybe even earlier than that, when the only way you could get a virus was by engaging in risky sex? (I mean Software EXchange, of course… [...]
I always knew webmin was arse, but this…
This is the output of iptables -L on a webmin-managed box I just saw:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)

The Myth of Infinite Cloud Scalability
Recently, I read an article from a fairly prominent “cloud computing” vendor, which contained a line that basically said “Let the cloud worry about your scalability and performance problems”. I nearly snorted my late-mid-morning can of mother out my nose when I read it. Here’s why.
“Let the cloud worry about your scalability” is [...]
Bringing the Mountain to Mohamed
I have never in my life been asked, “How do porcupines make love?”. However, I know the answer very well: “very carefully”. In the same vein, when migrating the mass of data that makes up Github, you take your time and you work very, very carefully. Since this sort of migration doesn’t happen [...]
Anchr 2.0
Anchr 2.0 makes you want to reach out and touch it; hold it; feel it. Your Anchr 2.0 pulsates with a reassuring rhythm, like that of a heart, but made of silicone instead of striated cardiac muscle.
Anchr 2.0 responds.. it is alive. If you listen carefully you can hear its machinations, at speeds beyond the [...]
