  • unRAID Automatic USB Hotplugging (Libvirt)

    Posted on August 15, 2019 by 9 Comments

    A long time ago, I figured out how to have an unRAID server detect a hotplugged USB device and automatically associate this device with a VM. I wasn’t ever planning on revisiting this issue as unRAID was supposed to implement this as a feature in a future release. Well, after several years and numerous unRAID upgrades, not only am I still waiting for this feature, but the solution I was using ...

  • Chrooted SFTP, Inotify & Chattr – A Fortified Prison for Backups

    Posted on June 3, 2019 by Comment

    In my last post, I touched on ways you could automate remote database backups using SSH and passphrase-less keys. I didn’t really go in-depth as I felt this topic deserved its own article and wouldn’t you know it, here it is!

    Now, as you can tell by the title, we’re going to be focusing on using SFTP as our transfer protocol of choice instead of SSH or SCPas I’ve found its a lot easier to sec ...

  • Automating MariaDB Backups…As Securely as Possible

    Posted on April 23, 2019 by Comment

    Right off the bat, I’ll tell you that there is no completely secure way to automate your MariaDB backups. I researched this for awhile and haven’t found one yet. That isn’t to say there aren’t ways to mitigate your risk, but as some point you’re going to need to store your password somewhere. If you are unwilling to invite any risk to your databases, your best options are to automate entire ba ...

  • Please Encrypt Your Databases (MariaDB)

    Posted on January 7, 2019 by 4 Comments

    Security is often one of the last things IT professionals think about when starting a project. Most of the time tight deadlines and an overworked staff lead to a less than perfect implementation. Security, along with other important things…looking at you Documentation…get pushed to the back burner and sometimes forgotten about altogether. One safeguard that is seldom implemented is database ...

  • When an Admin isn’t an Admin, More Windows Samba Drama

    Posted on April 6, 2018 by Comment

    If you read my last post, you’ll know that the latest release of Windows 10 introduced an issue when connecting to public Samba shares. I showed you how this problem can be solved through the use of a local GPO. I thought that would be the last of my file sharing problems, but as usual I was sorely mistaken.

    SambaRecently, I had trouble connecting to a password protected Windows share from a Linu ...
