Gartner: Microsoft Security Improving

Gartner: Microsoft Security Improving 02/10/2004 12:13 PM
A recent Gartner report corroborates what industry observers have known for months: Microsoft's security initiatives are paying off for the software giant, and as customers move to more modern Windows versions such as Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, they will participate in the benefits as well. Gartner did, however, hedge its bets by chiding Microsoft for blaming many of its security compromises on those who write malicious code, perhaps in a bid to make its otherwise glowing report on Microsoft security seem less one-sided. The report is also careful to cast Microsoft's security improvements in guarded terms.

online security 06/30/2004 07:37 AM
The relationship between IT security and privacy is getting tighter every day, and most of the attempts to violate security have as the ultimate goal to gather confidential information of some sort. In this digital age, our online avatars are becoming as important as their real-life counterparts. Moreover, there's no clear separation between the two datasets: Because we need to communicate some "physical" details (phone numbers, addresses, etc.) over the Internet, we're actually digitally propagating them to an unknown number of potential listeners.

This posting, mostly about rsync, is
aimed at peop ... 03/13/2003 10:22 AM

This posting, mostly about rsync, is aimed at people like me -- web developers who migrated to OS X with little experience in actually running web servers. I did it almost two years ago and am still learning.

I quickly came to enjoy, and rely on, having a local Apache/MySQL/PHP environment for development, but found that once a site went live I became more tied to the production server than I wanted. It was slowing me down, too, because of the workarounds needed to 1) keep work in progress isolated from live code and 2) integrate that work when testing was complete.

To remedy that situation I've been using rsync, with great success. I set up offline mirrors of live sites I'm working on, complete with their own MySQL databases and local-only virtual domains (e.g. "bigfancyclient.dev"). I tweak code with abandon and then, when it's all working perfectly (ahem), I upload the changes to the production server in one step -- using a shell script containing a couple long-ass rsync commandlines.

For those new to rsync, basically my rsync commands say: "here's the development mirror A; here's the live server B; take every file in the following directories on A that's newer than its counterpart on B and upload it, saving the old one as a backup."

Sometimes even a "simple" change involves interdependent changes to half a dozen files in different directories. I don't have to keep track. rsync finds them all. I also have a "dry run" version that has the same commands with the addition of the "-n" option that does everything except actually transfer the files -- for a last-minute sanity check.

(Note 1: In theory you could accomplish the same thing by just uploading everything, but in practice this doesn't work except with very small sites. And if you get around this by selecting which directories or files to upload, well, then you are manually doing the work that rsync can do faster and more accurately.)

(Note 2: This is clearly best suited to smaller operations. With many developers working at once, you want something like CVS. Though rsync can of course sync in either direction, so I can update my mirrors when other developers or HTML coders make changes to the live server.)

rsync has a jillion options, so if this sounds at all appealing I encourage you to curl up with the manpage.

I have used lots of other methods for making code changes to live sites; for efficiency, ease, and safety this beats them all hands down.

Improving our mirrors. Can you help?

Improving our mirrors. Can you help? 08/03/2004 10:37 AM
Finks decision to gradually build its own network of mirrors has payed off. To make sure that we can continue to offer a high quality service we need to improve our mirror network. It has been some time since we last asked for more mirrors. It is time to do so again. Fink is very grateful for the resources granted to us by our community. To further improve our service to the community we require an even better mirror system. We especially lack mirrors in central Europe, Russia and the Far East. If you feel that you have at least two Mbit to spare for a rsync mirror or more to offer a distfiles mirror please contact us. To get a better understanding of the different types of mirrors Fink offers, please go and review finkmirrors.net. This is the official homepage for all mirror related issues. If you feel that you can offer other types of resources, web-space for testing as an example, please do not hestitate in contacting us as well.
