EZ-VPN on a ASA-5508-X

I've recently had to migrate a dated ASA-5505 to a ASA-5508-X. In theory the config should be compatible. In reality a lot of unused stuff has accumulated over the years. And it was deemed a spring-cleaning was in order. So the config was re-created on the new box.
Having both boxes running side-by-side and being able to match the config makes this relatively easy. There was only one thing that had me stumped. Disclaimer: IANACCSE (I Am Not A Cisco Certified Something Enginner)

Rancid and Cisco WLC

As I've blogged before, I'm using RANCID to backup and version configuration files of various network equipment. Unfortunatley it does not support Cisco's Wireless LAN Controller platform out of the box. But luckily it's rather easy to add support to RANCID....

CollabNet Subversion Edge 5.1.0, Trac and mod_wsgi on Windows

As I've blogged before, I think CollabNet Subversion Edge to be quite handy. Now there's a new version (5.1.0) out that addresses several issues. I found that compiling mod_wsgi isn't necessary anymore. But they still ship a version of mod_wsgi that doesn't work.....

XenServer 6.5 SP1, Dell OpenManage and SNMP.

I've written before about XenServer 6.2, Dell OpenManager and SNMP and XenServer 6.1, Dell OpenManage and SNMP. I'm happy to report that the steps also work on XenServer 6.5 SP1 with very few modifications.

Logitech Media Server and Ubuntu Server 14.04.1 LTS

Logitech Media Server (LMS) was formerly known as SqueezeboxServer, SqueezeCenter and SlimServer. It's been running fine on my Ubuntu Server 13.10 box. I've recently decided to take the plunge and update to 14.04.1 LTS. There were some minor issues, but nothing critical, except for Logitech Media Server which refused to start.
