How to set Static Ip address on Debian BOX

Posted by Simson on April 24th, 2009

This is also another important stuff to read, i atempted to forgot how it setup so i publish it so next time i just open my own blog i can read this article:

To configure a static IP (an IP that will never change) in debian you must edit the file
/etc/networking/interfaces and put the following:

CODE

# /etc/network/interfaces — configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)

# The loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The first network card – this entry was created during the Debian installation
# (network, broadcast and gateway are optional)
auto eth0

iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.10
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.1

The last section is the most important, the top may or may not be the same so don’t play with it unless you get an error. In this case the IP of the server is 192.168.1.10 so if you run it as a DNS server for example, you can set that in your router’s config and not worry about it changing.

To apply this configuration type /etc/init.d/networking restart

You’ll get a message that it’s restarting the network interface, then you’ll get booted off ssh (because the IP changed) so reconnect using the new IP and it should work.

In red hat this file is /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and you would put this in it:

CODE

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=192.168.1.10
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1

Using gParted to Resize your Vista HDD

Posted by Simson on April 7th, 2009

One
of the more advanced options for resizing your Windows
Vista partition is to use the GParted Live CD, a
bootable
linux CD that takes you straight into GParted, the great linux utility
for managing partitions. The problem is that if you resize your
boot/system partition, you will be completely unable to boot without
repairing windows.

First make sure that you have a bootable Windows Vista
installation
DVD, as you will be unable to use your computer if you don’t. Next,
download the GParted
Live CD
and burn it to cd.

Boot off the GParted cd, and you will see your hard drives in
the
drop-down list. The first drive is typically your boot drive, but you
can check the Flags column to make sure.

image

Next you’ll need to right-click on
the partition and choose Resize/Move from the menu.

image

Now you can either use the New Size textbox, or just
click and
drag the partition to make it smaller (or bigger). When you are done,
click the Resize/Move button.

image

This doesn’t immediately apply the changes, though. You can
make
other changes to your partitions and then when you are finished click
the Apply button.

image9

Depending on the amount of data and the speed of your
computer, it
can take quite a while to resize the partitions. On my computer it took
more than 30 minutes.

image

Once it’s done, quit, remove the live cd and then
reboot your
computer. Unless you are very lucky, you’ll be greeted with this
horrible error message saying “Windows Failed to start. A recent
hardware or software change might be the cause.”

File: \Windows\system32\winload.exe
Status: 0xc0000225
Info: The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is
missing or corrupt.

Here’s a screenshot of the error, but don’t worry, we’ll fix
it.

image

Insert your Windows Vista installation dvd and make sure you
boot off it. At the welcome screen click the Next button.

image

On the next screen, click the “Repair your computer” link in
the lower left hand corner.

image

The system recover options dialog will show up, and will ask
you if you want to Repair and restart, which we do.

image

If you happened to click the View details link you’ll see that
the
error is “Windows Device: Partition=Not found”, which indicates the
problem is the partition that we resized.

image

Your computer will reboot, and you’ll see Windows Vista in the
list
although it now has a different name indicating that it was recovered.

image

When Vista first starts up, it will start running a check of
the
disk. Whatever you do, don’t hit any keys here because we want the
system to check the disk.

image

Once it’s done it will reboot, and you’ll have Vista back up
and running again!

image

If you want to rename the Windows Vista entry in the list back
to normal, you can use VistaBootPro

Satay padang Indonesia

Posted by Simson on February 20th, 2009


Satay Padang a.k.a Sate Padang is very common in Indonesia originally from
Padang, West Sumatra. It is said to be the most spicy sate among other kind of
sate because it employs many different kind of spices. I recommend you to try
this recipe.

Ingredients:

½ cup sliced onion
cloves garlic, sliced
tablespoons peanut or corn oil
veal or beef hearts, quartered
lbs. beef chuck, cut into 4-inch chunks
1½ lbs. veal tongue, cut into 3 pieces
1 lb. beef tripe, cleaned and cut into 4 pieces
2 tablespoons fresh red hot chili, blended into a paste
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon turmeric
tablespoon fine chopped ginger
1½ tablespoons coriander
teaspoon ground cumin
pieces of jeruk purut, or 3 square inches of lemon peel
salam leaves
1 piece of laos
1 2-inch cinnamon stick
1 cup water
2 stalks lemon grass
3 cups coconut milk
Sauce:

2 cups coconut milk
1 cup rice flour
Reserved meat sauce
2 teaspoons salt
½ ripe tomato, sliced thin
Bamboo skewers
Instructions:

Fry the onion and garlic lightly in the oil in a large sauce-pan. Add all the
other ingredients except the coconut milk, and mix well. Cook, covered, for
about one and one-half hours, or until the meats are soft. Then add the coconut
milk, and cook for thirty minutes. Remove the meats, and reserve this meat
sauce, which should measure about 2 cups.
To make the sauce, mix the coconut milk and rice flour into a thin paste. Bring
the reserved meat sauce to a boil, and add the rice flour paste, salt and
tomato. Cook and stir, for ten minutes over a low flame until the sauce is well
mixed. If it becomes too thick, add ½ cup water during the cooking. The result
should be a thick, creamy, spicy sauce. Keep warm.
Cut all the cooked meats into ½-inch cubes. Put 5 cubes of different meats on
each skewer so that you have a contrast in textures. Heat the skewer briefly
over a charcoal fire, gas or electric broiler; then dip it liberally into the
warm rice sauce. The satays are usually eaten with rice rolls / rice cake.
