Getting a copy of a x509 certificate

to apache ssl openssl certifcates by jacques on Jun 28, 2005
If you need to easily retrieve a x509 certificate from a remote webserver, the easiest method is:

openssl s_client -showcerts -connect www.example.com:443


Which you can then go and copy from the line starting with '-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----' to '-----END CERTIFICATE-----' into the www.example.com.crt file.

Changing your hostname which your mail server sends out

to exim mail smtp by jacques on Jun 22, 2005
Occassionaly you have a internal mailserver on a machine which has a hostname like machine.example but for mail purposes your machine is known to the outside world as mail.example.com one can use the following helo_data on in your transports for exim to announce yourself as mail.example.com:

remote_smtp:
  driver = smtp
  helo_data = mail.example.com

exim router for relaying via a smarthost

to sysadmin freebsd exim mail smarthost by jacques on Jun 06, 2005
User the "begin routers" section add:

route_append:
    driver = manualroute
    domains = *
    transport = remote_smtp
    route_data = "smarthost.host.name byname"

Using a pre-commit script (written in python)

to svn pre-commit precommit by jacques on Jun 01, 2005
For some odd reason tortoise SVN loves to commit empty commit sets. So I managed to get the following pre-commit script working under FreeBSD, seeing that the pre-commit.tmpl does not work as expected.

#!/usr/local/bin/python
"""
Subversion pre-commit hook which currently checks that the commit contains
a commit message to avoid commiting empty changesets which tortoisesvn seems
to have a habbit of committing.

Based on http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/1.2.x/contrib/hook-scripts/commit-block-joke.py
and hooks/pre-commit.tmpl

import sys, os, string

SVNLOOK='/usr/local/bin/svnlook'

def main(repos, txn):
    log_cmd = '%s log -t "%s" "%s"' % (SVNLOOK, txn, repos)
    log_msg = os.popen(log_cmd, 'r').readline().rstrip('\n')

    if len(log_msg) < 10:
        sys.stderr.write ("Please enter a commit message which details what has changed during this commit.\n")
        sys.exit(1)
    else:
        sys.exit(0)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    if len(sys.argv) < 3:
        sys.stderr.write("Usage: %s REPOS TXN\n" % (sys.argv[0]))
    else:
        main(sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2])
