Setting Up Site To Site VPN With Mac OS X Server
The OS X Server would have 2 NICs with one on the WAN and the other on the LAN. The WAN would have the WAN IP and the LAN would run the LAN subnet. For this there would be no need for DNS or DHCP running on the remote box. The gateway setup assistant will config all of the conf files for you and then we would use the s2svpn command line utilities to configure an MD-5 CRAM hash to encrypt all data running over our custom tunnels. Then, we’d troubleshoot the connection. For more info on the specific command line utils, It’s all CLI stuff. You can man s2svpnadmin…

Installing MediaWiki on Mac OS X
I originally posted this at http://www.318.com/TechJournal 1. Create a database in MySQL called wikidb. 2. Create a new user called wikiserver that has full priviledges to this database (the user does not need to be called wikiserver, but that is the username we will be using for this walkthrough). 3. Download the latest stable release of MediaWiki from http://mediawiki.sourceforge.net. 4. Extract the tar files into a new folder (for this example we are going to call it wiki to keep things easy). This can be done using the tar -xvzf mediawiki.tar.gz (or subsititute your file name for mediawiki.tar.gz 5. Make the configuration files writeable using the command chmod a+w config…

Spinning Beachballs?
They’re called the “Spinning beachball of death,” but unlike in Windows they don’t always mean the system is completely frozen (although a kernel panic traditionally does): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinning_beachball_of_death And then there’s the Windows version: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_screen_of_death

Viewing Folder Sizes from the Command Line in Mac OS X
Here’s a lovely command for figuring out how much disk space each folder on a drive consumes. It is an excellent command to run if the currently logged in user does not have sufficient read permissions to view the used space on the directory in the Finder. By default it runs on the current directory. So navigate to the hard drive’s root folder and run this command: sudo du -xhd 1 In this case, the “x” instructs the system not to traverse file system mount points (so /Volumes is skipped), the “h” expresses results in human readable format (G for gigabytes, M for megabytes, K for kilobytes, B for bytes,…
