Secure Your Wireless with IPsec
a.. Wireless access is all the rage. Wireless this, wireless that. Hot spots are
turning up everywhere. Many are free. Many have absolutely no security. There
are several in my neighborhood. I have no idea who is running them, but at least
one is wide open.

a.. Redundant firewalls with OpenBSD, CARP and pfsync
Firewalls are among the most critical network components, since their failure
may cause entire groups of machines to remain offline. The damage may range from
the public (web, mail, etc.) servers to become unreachable to the outside world
up to being unable to surf this web site!

a.. Configuring IP-Based SSL on multiple hosts with Apache and FreeBSD
I have a very large PHP/MySQL application running on FreeBSD 6.0. Before we go
any further let's get it out of the way: yes, I should upgrade to a more
current version, but when you have a big system running a lot of sites in a live
environment, well, you often end up a couple of versions behind the most recent
stable release.

a.. BSD File Sharing - Part 4. SSH
Last time I wrote on FTP and mentioned its security weakness, this time I intend
to write on sharing and transfering files using its encrypted alternatives sftp,
scp, and on fuse-sshfs.

A sentimental Rob Somerville reflects on his experiences with IT over the years
and concludes that the BSD family is yet to be recognised as the shining example
of good engineering and innovation we know it is.

a.. SAP over BSD
As I did describe in the introduction BSD in the Industry last month, several
applications are necessary to support all the Industry areas despite of
traditional IT services and can be a big step in the BSD implementation into
this world.
