why do you love it?

i was driving home from work.

everyday is a ramai-kereta day. to work and back from work, you will not miss them. unless you decided to leave early, call in medical leave or never show up at work.

something hits me the other while listening to a radio station. what is there to do while being a victim of the traffic jam?

there is this girl called up the station to dedicated a song to her boyfriend.

so, DJ asked her what song would you like to dedicate and to whom you would like it to?

Girl said,

“i wanna dedicate this song to my boyfriend, Jason and i love the way you lie”

apparently the song was Love the Way You Lie by Eminem ft Rihanna.

to whichever Rachel is, nice choice of song and hopefully you have dump your lying boyfriend.

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn~

SSH : Screen

Connecting to server using SSH has its limitations. For those who knew, in order to open a new window, we will have to create a second connection to the server. If the SSH connection interrupted half way, your progress will be disconnected.

This is when SCREEN tool is being used. Screen is a tool in SSH whereby being used for multiple screens to work in. 1 for scripting. 1 for checking logfiles and etc.

Screen are mostly installed by default but you may check by typing

root@server [~]# which screen

If it is not install, may try to install using

root@server [~]# yum install screen

Once you have open screen by typing “screen”, you will be able to see a list of command by “CTRL + A” followed by a “?

Press Space for the next page of command list and Space again to exit the command list.

You may always start a new Screen window by typing “CTRL+A+c“.

Then “CTRL+A+c” again for a new window.

Type “CTRL+A+p” for the previous screen window or “CTRL+A+n” for the next window.

One of the biggest advantage for SCREEN is that you are able to detach yourself and return to normal SHELL mode simply by just typing “CTRL+A+d

What happen if you were to be disconnected half way? Or you decided to leave a while for a coffee break? Yes, you may always pick up where you have it left simply by listing the SCREEN which are concurrently running behind.

root@server [~]# screen -ls

The list of SCREENs which are running will be shown and you will be able to resume them by just typing the command below.

root@server [~]# screen -r <session name>

Once done, you may always have the SCREEN close by typing exit like our command SHELL exit and will be showing messages such as [screen is terminating]

Screen is an awesome tool to use and is always well known to Linux administrator. Of course, you are welcome to share around.

What is CDN? (in illustration)

In my previous post, I have posted that currently bosscat.org is powered by Aflexi which resulted a lot of people confused that I have left my previous hosting provider. So I guess, it will be better if I explain in details and who knows, you will be interested.

As you know, the data center that currently hosting bosscat.org is located at AIMS Data Centre in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

With the traditional hosting, everyone who is viewing bosscat.org look like this regardless what the distance is.

And what happen if that whole server decided to crash on that day?

the world could not browse bosscat.org and will be experiencing downtime.

By using Content Delivery Network, a collection of servers will be strategically and geographically located serving data from bosscat.org

Then, imagine if a few servers are experiencing poor performance. The traffic is being redirected to the nearby servers

bosscat.org won’t be expecting any downtime, I supposed. XD

bosscat.org is now on CDN

What is CDN?

A content delivery network or content distribution network (CDN) is a system of computers containing copies of data, placed at various points in a network so as to maximize bandwidth for access to the data from clients throughout the network. A client accesses a copy of the data near to the client, as opposed to all clients accessing the same central server, so as to avoid bottleneck near that server.

Currently bosscat.org is powered by Aflexi

Define Urgent

Urgent

the word urgent no longer meant compelling or requiring immediate action or attention.

the word urgent no longer nor sounded urgent to me.

the word urgent is being used too often by the same person and suddenly it just feels like nothing.

the word urgent is supposed to sound pressing on matters yet again i am numb to that word.

the word urgent will never be able to express with insistence.

the word urgent could never again convey the sense of pressing importance.

im sorry but urgent seems to be TOO OVER-RATED especially it is being USED by the same person over and over again. it was like almost a de-javu for me everyday. seriously Lolita, you should stop using the word urgent and start to widen your vocabulary.

25

When I was 20. I told myself I needed to achieve success at the age of 25.

When I was 22, I started everything from the bottom. Unsure if I am able to achieve my success because time is running out.

Now that I am 23, I was given an opportunity. I take it as an opportunity of lifetime.

With the support of close friends, true friends and the help of my 2 partners.

We look forward to our dreams each day.

i’m a pro-dreamer

Cpanel : How to block Email Forwarder Domain

Sometimes we do wonder why some self hosted email was send but reaches our Junk/SPAM mail box at our email accounts at Gmail or Yahoo or Hotmail accounts. It maybe caused by mass mailing or heavy spamming from specific IP addresses and if you are using a shared hosting package as you don’t know what other users are sending.

If things get pretty bad, it would be advisable to have the Email Forwarder at Cpanel to stop email forwarding to free email service provider. This is as well to protect your server’s IP especially to those who owns a dedicated server.

Step 1:

You will need to create a file call “CustomEventHandler.pm” at /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel or

root@server [~]# pico /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/CustomEventHandler.pm

Step 2 : Paste this coding into “CustomEventHandler.pm”

package Cpanel::CustomEventHandler;
 
# cpanel12 - CustomEventHandler.pm                      Copyright(c) 2008 cPanel, Inc.
 
#                                                           All rights Reserved.
 
# copyright@cpanel.net                                         http://cpanel.net
 
# This code is subject to the cPanel license. Unauthorized copying is prohibited
 
use strict;
 
use Cpanel::Logger ();
 
# apiv = apiversion
 
# type = pre,post
 
# module = Cpanel::<modname>
 
# event = the event ie addpop
 
# cfg ref is a hash of the conf variables passed to the event. If its a legacy event, the hash keys are numbered, newer events have names.
 
# dataref = the data returned from the event (post events only)
 
sub event {
 
my ( $apiv, $type, $module, $event, $cfgref, $dataref ) = @_;
 
my $return = 1;
 
if ( ($module eq 'email') && ($event eq 'addforward') ) {
 
my($localpart, $domain) = split(/@/, $cfgref->{'fwdemail'});
 
if (-f "/etc/forwarder_blocked_domains.txt") {
 
open(BLOCK, "</etc/forwarder_blocked_domains.txt");
 
while (<BLOCK>) {
 
chomp($_);
 
if ($_ eq $domain) {
 
$return = 0;
 
}
 
}
 
close(BLOCK);
 
}
 
}
 
return $return;
 
}
 
1;

Step 3 : Save the file.

Step 4 : Create a file call “forwarder_blocked_domains.txt” at /etc/

root@server [~]# pico /etc/forwarder_blocked_domains.txt

Step 5 : Key in all the domains you wish to block one line at a time like the image below
