import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

Today I got some hint how to implement joining public chats via API in linux Skype.

apt-get install xen-hypervisor-3 xenwatch xen-tools linux-image-2.6-xen-amd64
/etc/xen/xend-config.sxp: "(network-script network-bridge)"
time xen-create-image --hostname=test --ip=10.0.0.11 --arch=amd64 --role=udev
Recently I wondered which hardware I am using in a remote root server. A friend of mine came up with the following command:
dmidecode
This even works on ESX 3.5 Hosts. You see really detailled which hardware is in the box.
Today I have made 2 scripts which ease ESX 3.5 patch management for me.

Today I had the problem of displaying the version of the interpreter in a perl and a python script.
After installation of VMware ESX 3.5 on a SunFire X2100 the machine always faulted with a root-fs error.
Looking at the VMware forums, I found a post by rpartmann who provides a script to solve this issue[1].
With the help of his script I found the relevant steps to fix this issue for me:
Then I could start without problem on my nVidia SATA chipset.
You might need to do the same procedure after an update of VMware. Haven’t been there so far.
This helps a lot:
exim4 -d+route -bt [email-address]
This week I had to switch a MySQL DB from a latin-1 host to a UTF-8 host (Webserver with Forum/CMS). I have never managed to make this work with only setting the codepages right.
I have put together a perl script that takes the databases and their tables from the one host, encodes it to UTF-8 and inserts the data in the new host.
I hope someone finds this useful: sqlcopyconv.txt
PS: You need to have all the Tables in the new DB created already. But without data.
