Unison - Synchronisation de répertoires - un des plus formidables logiciels de synchronisation existants - gratuit
by decembre
Permet une synchronisation unidirectionnelle ou bidirectionnelle de répertoires, locaux ou distants (par ssh, ou simple socket). Donc vous pouvez modifier des fichiers dans les deux répertoires, Unison s'occupe de les synchroniser. Quand il ne parvient pas à résoudre les conflits, il vous propose des choix. En mode unidirectionnel, ça remplace sans problème rsync. Il est multiplateformes (on peut synchroniser entre Win/Linux/etc.), économe (ne transfers que les parties modifiées d'un fichier, et fait des transfers compressés), sûr (vous pouvez l'arrêter en plein milieu d'une synchro avec très peu de risques de perte). Fonctionne en ligne de commande ou avec une interface graphique (GTK). Même la version ligne de commande est claire et simple à utiliser. Si vous avez besoin d'autres logiciels de synchronisation, voir égalemenbt Wikipedia, DeltaCopy ou cwRsync.

Database versus files for Images at Spindrop
by Xavier Lacot
Dave gives his feedback on a long-debated developement topic : storing files in database or on the filesystem.
"I had been serving images via the database. Immediately when I switched to the filesystem I saw a huge benefit. Not just a drop in database connections, but overall “zippiness” in the site.
We’ll see how well this performs in the real world, but I am quite sure that I learned my lesson."
All this makes sense : files are not data, they are just files. A filesystem is designed for hosting files. A database is designed for hosting data. Don't mess things.

Linux.com :: Parallel SSH execution and a single shell to control them all
by camel
(via)
Many people use SSH to log in to remote machines, copy files around, and perform general system administration. If you want to increase your productivity with SSH, you can try a tool that lets you run commands on more than one remote machine at the same time. Parallel ssh, Cluster SSH, and ClusterIt let you specify commands in a single terminal window and send them to a collection of remote machines where they can be executed.
Why you would need a utility like this when, using openSSH, you can create a file containing your commands and use a bash for loop to run it on a list of remote hosts, one at a time? One advantage of a parallel SSH utility is that commands can be run on several hosts at the same time. For a short-running task this might not matter much, but if a task needs an hour to complete and you need to run it on 20 hosts, parallel execution beats serial by a mile. Also, if you want to interactively edit the same file on multiple machines, it might be quicker to use a parallel SSH utility and edit the file on all nodes with vi rather than concoct a script to do the same edit.
Many of these parallel SSH tools include support for copying to many hosts at once (a parallel version of scp) or using rsync on a collection of hosts at once. Because the parallel SSH implementations know about all the hosts in a group, some of them also offer the ability to execute a command "on one host" and will work out which host to pick using load balancing. Finally, some parallel SSH projects let you use barriers so that you can execute a collection of commands and explicitly have each node in the group wait until all the nodes have completed a stage before moving on to the next stage of processing.

Howto: ISP-style Email Server with Debian-Etch and Postfix 2.3
by camel
(via)
The configuration described here is not very complicated but still needs to be done carefully. You are expected to have at least basic knowledge of:
* MySQL (creating a database, granting access to users, basic SQL queries)
* SMTP (what it is and what a basic SMTP dialog looks like)
* POP3, IMAP (what they do and what the differences are)
* basic Postfix configuration (understand the default settings in your main.cf, have read through the basic configuration document and know that your mail log file is at /var/log/mail.log)
* Debian/Linux (general system administration, using a text editor, reading log files)
Box Backup - Trac
by camel
Box Backup is an open source, completely automatic, on-line backup system. It has the following key features:
* All backed up data is stored on the server in files on a filesystem - no tape, archive or other special devices are required.
* The server is trusted only to make files available when they are required - all data is encrypted and can be decoded only by the original client. This makes it ideal for backing up over an untrusted network (such as the Internet), or where the server is in an uncontrolled environment.
* A backup daemon runs on systems to be backed up, and copies encrypted data to the server when it notices changes - so backups are continuous and up-to-date (although traditional snapshot backups are possible too).
* Only changes within files are sent to the server, just like rsync, minimising the bandwidth used between clients and server. This makes it particularly suitable for backing up between distant locations, or over the Internet.
* It behaves like tape - old file versions and deleted files are available.
* Old versions of files on the server are stored as changes from the current version, minimising the storage space required on the server. Files are the server are also compressed to minimise their size.
* Choice of backup behaviour - it can be optimised for document or server backup.
* It is designed to be easy and cheap to run a server. It has a portable implementation, and optional RAID implemented in userland for reliability without complex server setup or expensive hardware.

addSizes.js - Automatically add the File Size of a Document next to the Link
by damdec
addSizes.js - a little script that automatically adds file size after the link, like ‘pdf link (pdf 2.8 MB) and an ‘mp3 file link (mp3 4.9 MB)’. To use this script in your site, simply include jQuery and then the addSizes script itself will do the rest of the magic.
