You need to download GNS3 and Dynamips. For GNS3 you would need to install PyQt4 and telnet which are not present in the standard F17 installation. After it’s installed, GNS3 itself ca be unpacked.
yum -y install PyQt4 telnet
tar -xjf GNS3-0.8.3.1-src.tar.bz2
cd GNS3-0.8.3.1-src/
python2.7 setup.py build
sudo python2.7 setup.py setup
For linking GNS3 and dynamips you have to have the latter installed. Not an easy task on F17. You can’t just yum install dynamips, because it requires a legacy library libpcap.so.0.9 which couldn’t be found by myself.
[root@hp opt]# yum install dynamips-0.2.8RC2-1.i386.rpm

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
But you could do the installation manually, and add symlink to the legacy lib just to be on a safe side
rpm -i --nodeps dynamips-0.2.8RC2-1.i386.rpm
ln -s /usr/lib/libpcap.so.1.2.1 /usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.9
Поставил андроид апп для вордпресса, создал отдельный акк на серваке, вбил креды, запустил, написал пост и… ничего не произошло. Иконка синхронизации дергается в конвульсиях, H+ моргает стрелками, ничего не происходит. чтобы что-то произошло, аккаунт должен быть с правами administrator, не работает по-другому. Несекурненько.
There are few people on the globe who loves to work with Cisco and Linux via CLI. These people might have issues with trying to apply Bash/Vim syntax to IOS and vice versa. I’m certainly one of them. That’s why I can do the followng in my Bash:
$ show .bashrc | i return
[[ "$-" != *i* ]] && return
# return 0
# [[ -z $adir ]] && return 1
# [[ $? -ne 0 ]] && return 1
# [[ $? -ne 0 ]] && return 0
# return 0
It’s very handy for checking Cisco configs, stored on a Unix machines, without inverting your mind out. In fact, if you are in rush and tried to apply IOS syntax to Bash, you won’t be distracted by an error message, but you’d get a result you reqired.
$ show samle_conf.cfg | i spanning-tree
spanning-tree mode rapid-pvst
spanning-tree etherchannel guard misconfig
spanning-tree extend system-id
spanning-tree pathcost method long
spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree bpduguard enable
...
It’s achieved very easily. You need to add some aliases to your ~/.bashrc file and relogin:
echo 'alias show="cat"' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'alias i="grep --color"' >> ~/.bashrc
Fedora did a thing I hated in Windows. It collected enough system files to flood my root partition over the years of usage.

There is a version of Lingvo dictionaries for Stardict available on the net. I do not think it’s legal, so do not forget to purchase you Lingvo license before proceeding with the following instructions.
At first, install stardict and archiver:
yum -y install stardict p7zip
At second, download the dictionaries. Beware that original Lingvo dictionaries shipped with product will not work. You have to use special ones“.
Copy downloaded folders to /usr/share/stardict/dic. Now unpack them:
cd /usr/share/stardict/dic; 7za e \*.7Z;
You’ll get a list of files and dirs. dirs are not needed, delete them:
for dir in *; do if [ -d $dir ]; then rm -rf $dir; fi done
At last, kill all instances of Stardict and star one up. Go to “Manage dictionaries”: you shall see a list of added dictionaries there. If you see no any new dictionary, it means you have done something wrong. Go to the second tab (Manage Dict), choose query dict group, press [+] button, select all available (needed to you) dictionaries and press enter. Now you have to have the full list of dictionaries searchable.
Test it. Enjoy.
This post is more a note to myself than a message I want to deliver to me struggling readers. There are two utilities for generating random passwords and one hack-around.

Generates MANY passwords simultaneously. Very handy if somebody is behind your back watching you.

Eventually, tar is very slow for appending files to the existing tarball. I’m particularly talking about following options:
-r – append files to the end of an archive
-u – only append files newer than copy in archive
Logically thinking, for -u to work, it should accomplish linear search through the archive. Than bigger the archive, than slower the search. Moreover, if you’ll try to append in the loop, it will accomplish search as many times as many iterations you loop has. I would advice to use in the most exceptional case ONLY. Try avoiding
# -u. slow inefficient approach of taring multiple files
for file in $(ls -A)
do
tar -uf tarball.tar $file; #traverses all archive to append the file.
done
You’d think that -r option usage forces tar application to append files to the end of the archive, getting the position of the archive’s end from archive’s index. It doesn’t. Tar format is designed in a way that it has no index.
# -r approach is also slow and inefficient
for file in $(ls -A)
do
tar -rf tarball.tar $file; #traverses all archive to append the file.
done
However, TAR supports several formats for its archive. But they are not well-documented. I had a brief overview of them, and looks like
–format=gnu is the most recent and featured one. And It still has no index. I no longer understand why tar is even used. Despite of that, below is a workaround, allowing for packing unlimited amounts of files right instant. I recommend to never use append function with tar format. Instead, get to know what are you going to archive, prepare necessary files, and archive them all.
# faster approach for taring multiple files. No appending
ls -A >> list.txt
tar -cT list.txt -f backup.tar
I’ve created my own over the phone letter to word substitution list. It’s simple, non-ambiguous, easy to spell. I was achieving following design goals:
– no acronyms
– short words
– common computing-related words
– no similar sounding in words
– less brand names is better
– less syllables is better
– fist letter of the word should sound in accordance to standalone alphabet letter
– i-e; c-s; v-w; j-g; m-n sounding confusion should be avoided

Linux terminal shortcuts are extremely handy. They can speed-up your everyday tasks significantly. Additionally, most commends are applicable to Cisco telnet/SSH sessions and any other terminals. A very little amount of people aware that your terminal can cut/paste strings and words. It can, all shortcuts are there.
There are thousands of pages out there with the list of same shortcuts. What is the reason for me to duplicate widely spread information? Simple – all list around there are organized in a random unreadable way. I’ve put some effort and organized stuff according the functionality. I believe that my version of the list is much more usable than the rest out there. Enjoy.

If Google suddenly dies, I won’t be lost in the Internets. There are some good search engines around, some of them are even capable to find stuff I’m looking for. (Not Bing). There is always Russian Yandex around, who can find Windows 2003 server product key and print show it to you without even forcing you to open the page containing the key:
