Making Legacy Home Security Setups a bit Smarter With Konnected

December 10, 2017 by Michele Neylon 3 Comments

Konnected works with Samsungs Smartthings hub

One of the "gaps" in my  smart home setup at the moment is the burglar alarm. The burglar alarm I have in the house is functional and if you set it off it'll make plenty of noise and drive my neighbours nuts!

I had looked into a number of different "smart" … [Read more...] about Making Legacy Home Security Setups a bit Smarter With Konnected

Photo Licensing Change

January 8, 2012 by Michele Neylon Leave a Comment

I switched one of my web servers over to use SuPHP a few weeks ago, as it's a lot more secure. However moving from mod_php to suPHP does require a small bit of tweaking of files and directories. Under mod_php you can easily end up with a lot of files and directories being owned by the Apache user, which on Debian / Ubuntu is "www-data". You'll need to change the ownership … [Read more...] about Working With SuPHP Permissions and Ownership

Checking Which Ports Are Doing What On Linux

March 4, 2011 by Michele Neylon 2 Comments

From time to time it's handy to be able to see exactly which process is using a particular port on a Linux system - especially if you're debugging issues. This command will let you see exactly what's going on - you simply change the port number: lsof -i:80 If you need the standard port numbers you can check this list … [Read more...] about Checking Which Ports Are Doing What On Linux
