I manage several mysql servers and often on these servers for security reasons the SUPER account is not allowed external network access, so access is made to localhost. When connecting to several hosts at the same time, for example from different ssh sessions, this can be inconvenient as the \h prompt only ever shows localhost and not the hostname of the server to which I'm connected.
The following small patch against 5.1.36 which can also be found here adds a new \H option which behaves the same as \h except in this case the hostname is shown.

As this uses the FQDN it may be necessary to add another option to show only the host's short name but for now this patch is useful for me. I expect the patch should work against most other versions of MySQL. Perhaps this is useful enough to warrant putting in the main MySQL sources?

Fall classes are set to begin soon, and the momentum continues to build in UALR's Donaghey College of Engineering and Information Technology (EIT).
We continue to innovate and stay on top of current trends in the marketplace in all of our undergraduate programs – architectural and construction engineering , civil and construction engineering, computer science, construction management, earth science, environmental engineering, information science, engineering technology and systems engineering. Our programs are built around forward-thinking precepts, meaning our graduates are prepared to immediately succeed in construction-, engineering- and technology-focused careers – whether working for themselves or at a leading company – as well as in graduate programs at top universities.
EIT is also home to eight cutting-edge graduate programs including doctoral degrees, masters of science degrees and graduate certificates – all focused on strategic areas of commerce and research directly relevant to 21st Century success.
We've now begun our fourth academic year in our six-story, 115,000-square-foot EIT Building, which was designed and built to promote students' success in learning and research. And our home in the middle of Little Rock – Arkansas's capital city – also provides employment and cultural opportunities found nowhere else in the state.
In 13 years, EIT has become a true center of academic excellence, recognized by U.S. News and World report as having one of the top undergraduate engineering programs at a public university in the South.
As I begin my third academic year as EIT's dean, my family and I feel at home in Little Rock, and I remain ever more optimistic about the future at EIT and UALR. We have a world-class faculty ready to prepare the next generation of successful technologists, engineers and construction professionals. Our slogan is "Building Bright Futures," and I invite all who are ready for an engaging, challenging, future-focused education to consider taking their next steps toward their own bright futures at EIT.

The centerpiece of a popular park is turning into a nightmare for taxpayers. Murfreesboro officials have spent nearly a half-million dollars to fix a pond that keeps leaking, but there could be even more problems below the surface.
City engineers are hoping a dirt and concrete fill hole is the fix to an ongoing problem where water drains from the lower Gateway Island pond off Medical Center Parkway.
"When they filled it back up [last week], within 24 to 48 hours it all went away again and a very large hole appeared," said Amy Jacobs, a local photographer.
Jacobs is concerned about what she believes is a sinkhole at the popular wedding and events venue.
"[I think of] the stories on the news of people's houses collapsing and people losing their lives," Jacobs said. "Sinkholes are nothing to play around with."
Repairs to the pond were completed last week, or at least city engineers thought.
Engineers are stopping short of calling it a sinkhole. Instead, they're referring to it as a dropout or void.
"A lot of time in Murfreesboro, whenever you have bedrock exposed like that, you can get a lot of dropouts or voids opening up in the crevices around the rock," said Chris Griffith, a Murfreesboro city engineer.
The city recently spent upwards of $370,000 putting a 2-foot soil cap to seal several voids and another $10,000 to $15,000 on the latest 14 feet deep, 12 feet wide, 15 feet long hole. In all, taxpayers have shoveled out nearly $500,000 on repairs.
"It's money just going down the drain literally and they don't seem to know where the water is going," Jacobs said.
Murfreesboro resident Harvey Barrett visits the Gateway Island almost daily to feed the ducks. He too is worried that there may be more holes underneath the ground.
"I'm afraid it's going to be another sinkhole and it's going to swallow people up," Barrett said.
Another concern for residents is the land next to the Gateway Island and walking trail, which used to be the city landfill, but officials said that has nothing to do with the problems with the pond.
Now that the repairs have been made, city engineers said they can't guarantee there won't be future problems.
"As you fill it up with water, we may find one or two more failure areas," Griffith said.
City engineers said they are not sure if water pressure on pipes near the circulation systems installed in the pond or a natural dropout caused the latest hole to open up.

Source: bought it new
Price Paid: $25
Esbit stoves are awesome...however, this version is not great.
- Hard anodized aluminium
- Solid fuel tabs
- Pot size for solo camping
- Easy to light
- Weak heating for pot size
I have been a fan of Esbit stoves for years. I still have an Esbit folding stove from the '80s that I use all the time. I bought this stove several years ago and have used it many times.
This stove set up is awesome. The pot is fantastic. It is the perfect size for solo camping. Folding handles are functional. The pot is easy to clean and has a little pour spout. I love this pot (but I don't want to marry it) and it I could find a silicon lip protector I would use it as a mug.
The burner is great and stores easily inside the pot. You can also store 4 or 5 fuel tabs inside for transport. This is an Esbit stove so don't expect flame control, fast boil time, or anything else associated with more expensive stoves. It is for boiling water. I mean look at it...it is a no-brainer, easy to use product.
The problem: the stove cannot boil a full pot of water. The pot capacity is a pint/16 oz/about 400 ml. It will get the water hot enough to make coffee or ramen. However, if you needed to boil water as treatment it is not effective. I am not sure why it has this problem.
The Esbit folding stove will boil 16 oz of water on half of a fuel tab in an IMUSA pot with no lid. It could be the distance between the pot bottom and flame is too far. I am not an engineer and have not played one on television so I cannot give you the adjustments needed to make this more functional.
I will use this stove for making hot drinks with enthusiasm. Recently I used it in the parking lot at my local high school football game to make a fresh thermos of coffee for the game.
When this stove is all packed up and in its mesh bag it is so cute that you want to pinch it cheek. It will fit easily in your pack.
Comparing this to a similarly functional stove, Trangia Solo Set, go with the second.
I bought this more as an impulse buy and a curiosity…
Price Paid: $30
I bought this more as an impulse buy and a curiosity with Esbit and this design. I am a bit disappointed.
First of all Esbit is well known and respected and they do have tried and true designs. I am a backpacking, looking always to go lighter, and so I thought I should at least try this.
The Good: The pot is great and the nesting design really encouraged me to buy. The stand looked great, solid, and seemed to have a good wind-screen design built it.
The Bad: It is messy (ok some tweaking can minimize this), and the boil times...well don't watch it try to boil. Add a wind screen (piece of foil will do) or prepare to use extra fuel and wait longer).
The pot is well worth it and the stand is pretty good, but the fuel is messy, stinky, and once tablet on a warm evening using 60f water took over 12 minutes to boil (at 700ft).
I was disappointed. I was left with a less than confident feeling. If I really had to purify my water how long would it take? How many tablets? My friends say they often use two at once but I went with the instructions. Gotta use a wind screen.
Bottom line: Great idea, great pot, great nesting, love it all. Use a piece of foil to prevent soiling the stand. Use a piece of foil as a wind screen. Be prepared to isolate the stand from the pot when nesting to avoid contamination ans smell, be prepared to wait or use extra fuel.
I decided to put this system in my 'ready bag' as back-up or will use for more car-like camping. Love the pot, not lovin the fuel.

In 2007 the city's biggest costume party hit the streets for the 34th year. The theme was "Wings of Desire," but costumes of every kind were on display at Greenwich Village's proudly outlandish Halloween parade.
About 2 million spectators (one-fourth of the city's total population), 4 million television viewers, and 60,000 participants were estimated.
''Nobody west or south of the Statue of Liberty has any idea what this parade is about. 'The sheer outrageousness of it, the absolute spontaneity - this is nothing like the way they do Halloween in other parts of the country. Ths is New York's own thing.''

People with tinnitus experience sound in their ears, such as a ringing or buzzing, when there is no corresponding external sound. For some the condition can have a serious impact on day-to-day life, causing depression, anxiety, stress and sleep problems.
Helmy Mulders is working on tinnitus research which we're funding at the University of Western Australia. She tells us about the latest findings, which could help develop a future cure for tinnitus.

Hillingdon's special tribute to the Queen
2:07pm Friday 6th July 2012 in Local News By Gemma Ellis
HILLINGDON people have sent a heartfelt message to the Queen following hundreds of celebrations across the borough for her diamond jubilee.
The borough sent a letter of congratulations to Her Majesty, signed by the leader of the council Ray Puddifoot and the mayor, Cllr Michael Markham. It is a first for Hillingdon.
It is now on display in the mayor's parlour.
Many residents feel they have a special relationship with the Queen as she stepped on Hillingdon soil for the first time as Queen when returning to the UK from a foreign visit. She flew into RAF Northolt in 1952.
The letter recalls this honour and thanks her for her 'example, faithfulness and devotion to the nation'.
"This message encapsulates that affection and the long relationship Hillingdon has with the Queen," the Mayor said.
"The hundreds of Jubilee celebrations held across the borough last month showed how highly residents regard Her Majesty."

Wannabebig bodybuilders,
Lets get down to business! Who wants a massive set of tree trunks to match there upper body? I want this thread to be about leg training and your thoughts on it. I would like to see what training methods your using, your leg workouts, and possibly before and after pictures.
Also, if you need help or advice on your leg workouts, this would be the place to ask!
I guess ill break this ice, I split my legs up into two days which are quad and hamstring.

Just get under the bar!
The following is a favorite giant set for legs I used when I was bodybuilding:
Leg extension to failure 10-12 reps
Leg press to failure 10-12 reps
Leg curl to failure 10-12 reps
Back squat to failure 10-12 reps
The above were performed sequentially with NO rest between exercises. I had each pre-set and would move as quickly as possible from one exercise to the next. I would do the above for 2 total cycles. If you do it as prescribed you cannot do, or benefit from more. In fact, some people want to puke after just one cycle.

Giant sets are great, especially for contest prep. I used them on all bodyparts the last 5 weeks before my last contest. The conditioning effects are great along with an extreme pump and a tremendous amount of latic acid. For myself I usually do 3 giant sets of 5-7 exercises depending on the bodypart and vary tempo with each exercise within the giant set. Each giant set is a different order, some different exercises, and varying tempo. You can check out my journal for more specifics. here is one of the giant sets.
SPLIT SQUAT (3 sec up and down) 8-12 REPS
WALKING LUNGES with DUMBBELLS 20 OMNI STEPS (short/medium/long/side...)
SMITH MACHINE SQUAT (Slow negative), 10 REPS

The other thing is there is a method to the madness. First you exhaust the quads with the isolation set then you involve the hammies and glutes with the leg press. Next you smoke the hammies with the curl and then move on to the squat which allows you to involve the most muscle mass possible to push the fried quads and hams even further.

Great thread. Any tips on some good workouts for legs without machines?
I've been trying to get my legs bigger I already had chicken legs to begin with and I only increased this by not working out my legs for 1.5 years while I did only upper body.
You can do the king of all leg movements which is the squat and lots of them. I personally find 4 sets of 20 reps to be quite the leg builder. There is also lunges, Bulgarian split squats, glue hamstring raises, glute bridges, stiff legged deadlifts, dumbbell hamstring curls, and belt squats. This a good start to punish your legs.
AGREE! lol Somewhere I saw a sign over a squat rack that said something like, "You can't complain about the shape of your butt if you don't spend some time in this cage."
Does this pose make my camera look big?
"We're not as good as we want to be, we're not as good as we should be, but thank God we're not as bad as we used to be..."

Proposed CPB De-funding Would Hurt HD Radio
By now, nearly everyone has heard about the conservative congressional initiative to de-fund the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB). In fact, as this article is being submitted for publication, a house rules committee is conducting a hearing over a proposed bill to achieve that objective, even as a similar bill is in preparation for introduction in the Senate.
Of course there's nothing new about this controversy. That federal funding of the CPB has been a political football since the organization's establishment in 1969 is a matter of historical record. And even if one of the current bills to cut the cord should pass through the Capital to the White House, it's still likely to be tabled in the oval office -- at least for now.
Even so, populist outrage over burgeoning public debt suggests that the perennial proposal to eliminate all federal funding for public broadcasting may finally find its legs in the halls of Congress -- and that could well be causing some discomfort for those whose interests align with the advancement of HD Radio.
Consider the following:
So regardless of their political differences, or their opinions about IBOC technology, one thing all broadcasters -- public and private -- can probably agree upon is that de-funding CPB now would be bad news indeed for HD Radio.

We are getting ready here next week to 'upgrade' from our 2008 Rockwood Roo Expandable to a Coachmen Freedom Express 292BHDS Liberty Edition! I'll get pictures here soon.
Some folks may ask why does your family RV? The primary reason is family time. Just go once with your family and you'll know what I mean:) One of the side benefits is that it's a reasonably affordable way to travel and vacation. This infographic from General RV provides some insight.

Do you have a budget? Many people say yes and then can't really tell you how much money they alot each month for even the basic things like groceries, gas for the car, or eating out. Actually having a budget that is written down and followed each month is vastly different from having an idea of what you think you spend each month.
I was a fool for years thinking I 'had a budget'. It wasn't until going through Financial Peace University from the Dave Ramsey folks and applying the principles that our family's way of life was changed.
Amazing to think that some basic planning and committment can allow a family of two incomes to drop to one income just by keeping track of where they spend their money each month and sticking to it. Yep, that is our family.
Now, that we've been faithful at it for almost 18 months it's exciting to share it with other folks and encourage them as well.
Their are many money managment tools and resources online but I would encourage you to check out www.davereamsey.com with many resources and fanstic advice on all areas related to money.

I go to my search engine of choice today and the Google image displayed is of cakes with candles on them. I'm initially thinking ... wow, how cool is it that they chose to put up this image cause it is my birthday today. Then I got real curious and wondered ... do they know it's my birthday? After all I am logged into my google mail.
So, I open a different browser and go to google not being logged in and no birthday cakes with candles. Kind of strange to think about Google acting on info like your birthday on a search page, but why not.

Just over a year ago for some reason I thought that having a D&B (Dunn and Bradstreet) number and establishing a profile with them might be helpful for us down the road. First, we received all kinds of calls and emails prior to signing up Then of course, right after signing up we couldn't get ahold of anyone while our profile was being 'held hostage' of sorts by them. We soon discovered that what was promised for what we paid was untrue and basically a profile was worthless, at least for our business.
This past week we receive an email notice that suggests we have a bad mark on our credit in our D&B profile. Of course, that is concerning and maybe paying them our hard earned money was worth it after all. After some investigation we discovered the credit card we used last year to purchase the profile had expired and that is why they sent an alert about our 'bad credit' which you can see below.
One good thing? They seemed to answer the phone pretty quickly to get our money again ... at least they are good at one thing:) So, in short they used their own product to suggest and imply we had a bad credit mark on our profile ... wow!

Try this ultimate, high-potency multi-vitamin for women
Pink Pack is designed just for women with a focus on bone health support, beauty-from-within ingredients for hair, skin, nails and collagen production, and antioxidants to fight aging.* Here are just a few reasons why the Pink Pack is a superior women's formula.
Made with natural beta-carotene
We include only the more expensive, natural form of beta-carotene, an important source of vitamin A. Natural beta-carotene contains a wide spectrum of yellow, orange and red carotenoids that may help quench free radicals and support overall health.*
Loaded with bone health ingredients including
superior calcium citrate
To support bone health, you get 1,000 mg of calcium from three sources, including 500 mg of calcium citrate. Plus, you get the full 100% RDI (400 mg) of magnesium.
Vitamin D3 for enhanced bone health
Vitamin D enhances the absorption of calcium and is essential for bone health. Since women are more prone to bone health issues, 2,000 IU of vitamin D3 is added, which is superior to the D2 form.*
Energizing B vitamins
We include a full array of B vitamins. Plus you get a healthy dose of the more expensive, active form of B12 (methylcobalamin) as well as pantothenic acid, known as the anti-stress vitamin.
Vitamin C supports collagen
The building block of healthy skin is collagen, which requires healthy amounts of vitamin C.
Pink Pack includes buffered, non-acidic C for sensitive stomachs.*
Bioflavonoids support vein health
To support vein and capillary health, citrus bioflavonoids are included.*
Natural vitamin E plus gamma-tocopherols
Only the natural d-alpha form of vitamin E is used. We also include a gamma-tocopherol complex, which works with vitamin E to combat oxidative stress.*
Protective antioxidants—alpha-lipoic acid and grape seed extract
Alpha-lipoic acid provides antioxidant protection inside the cell and extends the life of vitamins C and E. Grape seed extract is an antioxidant that benefits the cardiovascular system.*
With lutein for healthy eyes
You get lutein, a natural antioxidant carotenoid found in high concentrations in the macula, supports eye health.*
Lycopene supports overall health
This red carotenoid may support overall health.*
This formula is iron-free. Many of our customers prefer to take iron separately if at all.
All capsules — fast delivery
An advanced, vegetarian capsule formula delivers ingredients quicker into the body.
Who should take Lindberg Pink Pack?
Pink Pack is ideal for busy women who want vibrant health and who have concerns about aging and bone health.* It's also great for growing teenage girls. You get exactly what you need in each individual packet.
For building your health, try
Lindberg Pink Pack for women today!

Butter both sides of each piece of bread. Using a heart-shaped cookie cutter, cut the centers out of the pieces of bread. Coat a skillet with the nonstick cooking spray. On low heat, place bread into skillet. Crack egg and pour one egg (keeping the yolk intact) into the center of each piece of bread. Increase heat slightly to med-low and wait for egg whites and egg yolk to cook. Once the whites are firm enough, use a spatula to gently flip the bread and egg and allow to finish cooking. Once done, both sides of the bread should be toasted and the egg gently fried.

They're not exactly the biggest ski areas on the East Coast, but you can still get some fun runs in fairly close to Norwood and the Boston area without waking up at 5 a.m. and spending the full weekend in Vermont.
Here are the five closes ski areas to the city, and their current prices and conditions.
Blue Hills
The closest to Norwood by far, the Blue Hills is just 7 miles from Norwood, in Canton, MA. Part of the Blue Hills Reservation, the "mountain" (let's be fair) offers nine trails and 60 acres of skiing. 4001 Washington St., Canton, Mass. (781) 828-5090
Price for an adult weekend lift ticket: $35.
Website: ski-bluehills.com
Conditions: current conditions
Bradford Ski Area
Less than an hour away from Boston is the Bradford Ski area in Bradford, MA. You won't find much - just 13 trails - but it's a perfect place to bring the family or to go as a beginner. 60 S. Cross Rd., Bradford, MA. (978) 373-0071
Price for an adult weekend lift ticket: $45
Website: www.skibradford.com

Wachusett Mountain
Waah-wah-wachusett... is your best bet for good skiing and riding and proximity to Boston, at just over an hour away in Princeton, MA.

High school students packed the Show Me Center Saturday for a different kind of competition.
There were 48 teams from across the Heartland that competed in a robotics challenge.
It was the fourth year the challenge has taken place in Cape Girardeau. It's also the largest qualifying event in Missouri.
Students spent months putting together and programming the robots.
They say they have learned a lot through the process.
"Eighty-five percent of it is all building the robot and doing trial and error," said Ethan Rendleman, Scott City High School student. "Getting the robot together, watching it build up. (It's) kind of like having your own little child."
Southeast Missouri State University announced they will be having a first ever robotics camp this summer at the event.

Aaron Ekblad tops NACS's midseason NHL draft rankings
Central Scouting announced this week that it rates Kingston center Sam Bennett as the top prospect available for the 2014 NHL Draft. TSN draft expert Craig Button followed up by listing Kootenay center Sam Reinhart atop his list.
And North American Central Scouting? They like Aaron Ekblad.
"He's so smart, very cerebral" Mark Seidel, chief scout for NACS, said of the 6′-5″, 205-pound defender for the OHL Barrie Colts. "He plays better in big games, [he has a] bomb from the point [and] is very mature. [He shows] tremendous poise, excellent leadership."
Ekblad, who will captain Team Orr at tonight's CHL Top Prospects Game, is coming off a strong, but unspectacular under-aged turn at the World Junior Championship. He earned the faith of coach Brent Sutter and handled a much heavier workload than any 17-year-old defenseman has in years for Team Canada. He's nowhere near as smooth as Seth Jones, the defender who topped last year's midseason rankings, but he's mobile, good with the puck, and capable of handling a shutdown role. That's exactly the sort of player that most teams, outside of the defense-prospect heavy Buffalo Sabres, wouldn't mind using a top pick to acquire.
NACS puts Reinhart, the 6′-1″, 190-pound center, at No. 2, praising his smarts and calling him a "no risk pick," with German-born Leon Draisatl at three. "He's been unreal in November and December," NACS reports, adding that the 6′-1″, 180-pound Prince Albert left winger "won't catch Reinhart or Ekblad, but he's better than the rest."
Bennett, at No. 4, is praised as "a warrior [who] will do it all. [He has a] high motor and goes in ALL areas."
At No. 5, NACS has Sault Ste. Marie forward Jared McCann. "[He] continues to get better every game and practice."
Here's the rest of the NACS Top 10 with its comments:
6. Michael Dal Colle, F, Oshawa (OHL): "Play has leveled off, still a tremendous power forward, has to push through in the second half."
7. Brendan Perlini, LW, Niagara (OHL): "Incredible start [but] has cooled off … so big/strong/skilled … phenomenal skater that challenges guys."
8. William Nylander, LW, Rogle (SWE): "Slowing down as the season progresses … very skilled … dropping a bit."
9. Ivan Barbashev, F, Moncton (QMJHL): "Creates offense all the time … showing more playmaking lately … point producer … wants to be in North America."
10. Nick Ritchie, LW, Peterborough (OHL): "Dominant at times, disappears at others … word is he wants out of Peterborough … we have concerns."
Here are a few other NACS rankings that caught our eye:
13. Jake Virtanen, LW, Calgary (WHL): "Shown a nose for the net … love his shot … victim of over-analysis by scouts."
17. Connor Bleakley, C, Red Deer (WHL): "Along with being a load to handle, he has really shown he can play 200 feet … biggest riser lately … smart."
21. Adam Ollas Mattsson, D, Djurgarden (SWE): "Big favorite of ours … size and reach are impressive … work on his feet is paying off."
26. Blake Clarke, LW, North Bay (OHL): "Biggest disappointment thus far … has REALLY struggled … where did the stud player go? … victim of tough system."
30. Josh Ho-Sang, RW, Windsor (OHL): "Game is developing but he still needs to understand that it's not all about offense … maturing a bit."
41. Alex Nedeljkovic, G, Plymouth (OHL): "Best goaltender in the Draft … Plymouth would be in big trouble without him … solid rebound control … athletic."
43. Brendan Lemieux, LW, Barrie (OHL): "Kid is a ball of hate … picks his spots with fights … hits hard, aggressive …. has scored some nice goals." (Note: son of Claude Lemieux.)
50. Alex Vanier, D, Baie Comeau (QMJHL): "Biggest surprise of the QMJHL this year … his size and strength are obvious but his offensive game is impressive, despite the point production … his defensive game is OK, too."
51. Aleksander Mikulovich, D, Niagara (OHL): "One of our favorite players and sleepers … plays a HARD game … competes, hits to hurt … should keep climbing as he gets more comfortable … committed himself to learning English ASAP."
58. Ivan Nalimov, G, St. Petersburg (RUS): "THE star of the Subway Series … even Russians were surprised … classic late bloomer? … really has calm demeanor … needs to work on stick skills … quick hands."
86. Daniel Audette, C Sherbrooke (QMJHL): "Size (5′-9″, 181) will always be the concern … such gifted skills … very heady, high hockey IQ … really scoots."

22. St. Louis Cardinals: Kolten Wong (2B, Univ. of Hawaii)
He's only 5-9 but goes 190 pounds and batted .378 this season, with a .492 on-base percentage. Peter Gammons calls him a baseball rat and John Hart isn't impressed with his tool package. But everybody says he can hit and everybody absolutely loves his makeup, which means you can put him in a box with Craig Counsell and David Eckstein and maybe, if everything works out perfectly, even Dustin Pedroia. His athleticism is good enough that he has also played the outfield, and has even taken a turn behind the plate.
Things probably won't work out perfectly, of course, and nobody's really expecting Wong to become a star. Of course, very few No. 22 picks become stars no matter position they play, or how tall they are. Wong's regarded as a safe pick, and at this point in the draft there's nothing wrong with playing it safe.

The Joint Base Lewis-McChord soldier killed in a traffic accident Wednesday night on base was a two-time veteran of combat tours in Iraq, the Army said today.

Melvin served for the last four years at Lewis-McChord. In addition to his Iraq tours, Melvin also served abroad in Germany and in Kuwait.
He listed Romeoville, Ill. as his hometown.
Melvin was killed in a traffic accident about 6 p.m. on Wednesday. A second soldier involved in the accident is receiving care at Madigan Army Medical Center.
The Army posthumously promoted Melvin to the rank of staff sergeant.

Ubuntu Hardy - Setup
These Ubuntu Hardy Heron articles will take you from a 'barebones' Ubuntu Hardy Cloud Server to a secured and up to date Cloude Server ready for your server software (or whatever you use the Cloud Server for).
Securing your Cloud Server as soon as possible is a great way of starting your Cloud Server administration.
Log in
As soon as you have your IP address and password for your Cloud Server, login via SSH:
ssh firstname.lastname@example.com
If you rebuilt your Cloud Server, you may get a message informing you that the "remote host identification has changed".
When you log into a Cloud Server via SSH, one of the security features is matching the remote host with known keys. When you rebuild a Cloud Server, the remote host key changes. As such, your computer thinks there is something dodgy going on.
All you need to do is remove the older entry for the Cloud Server IP:
On your LOCAL computer, edit the SSH known_hosts file and remove any entries that point to your Cloud Server IP address.
nano ~/.ssh/known_hosts
If you are not using Linux or a Mac on your LOCAL computer, the location of the known_hosts file will differ. Please refer to your own OS for details of where this file is kept.
User administration
Once logged in to the VPS, immediately change your root password to one of your choosing.
Add an admin user (I've used the name demo here but any name will do).
adduser demo
As you know, we never log in as the root user (this initial setup is the only time you would need to log in as root). As such, the main administration user (demo) needs to have sudo (Super User) privileges so they can, with a password, complete administrative tasks.
To configure this, give the 'visudo' command:
At the end of the file add:
demo ALL=(ALL) ALL
SSH keygen
One effective way of securing SSH access to your Cloud Server is to use a public/private key. This means that a 'public' key is placed on the server and the 'private' key is on our local workstation. This makes it impossible for someone to log in using just a password - they must have the private key.
The first step is to create a folder to hold your keys. On your LOCAL workstation:
mkdir ~/.ssh
That's assuming you use Linux or a Mac and the folder does not exist. I will do a separate article for key generation using Putty for Windows users.
To create the ssh keys, on your LOCAL workstation enter:
ssh-keygen -t rsa
If you do not want a passphrase then just press enter when prompted.
That created two files in the .ssh directory: id_rsa and id_rsa.pub. The pub file holds the public key. This is the file that is placed on the Cloud Server.
The other file is your private key. Never show, give away or keep this file on a public computer.
SSH copy
Now we need to get the public key file onto the Cloud Server.
We'll use the 'scp' (secure copy) command for this as it is an easy and secure means of transferring files.
Still on your LOCAL workstation enter this command:
scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub email@example.com:/home/demo/
When prompted, enter the demo user password.
Change the IP address to your Cloud Server and the location to your admin user's home directory (remember the admin user in this example is called demo).
SSH Permissions
OK, so now we've created the public/private keys and we've copied the public key onto the Cloud Server.
Now we need to sort out a few permissions for the ssh key.
On your Cloud Server, create a directory called .ssh in the 'demo' user's home folder and move the pub key into it.
mkdir /home/demo/.ssh mv /home/demo/id_rsa.pub /home/demo/.ssh/authorized_keys
Now we can set the correct permissions on the key:
chown -R demo:demo /home/demo/.ssh chmod 700 /home/demo/.ssh chmod 600 /home/demo/.ssh/authorized_keys
Again, change the 'demo' user and group to your admin user and group.
Done. It may seem a long set of steps but once you have done it once you can see the order of things: create the key on your local workstation, copy the public key to the Cloud Server and set the correct permissions for the key.
SSH config
Next we'll change the default SSH configuration to make it more secure:
nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
The main things to change (or check) are:
Port 30000 <--- change to a port of your choosing Protocol 2 PermitRootLogin no PasswordAuthentication no UseDNS no AllowUsers demo
The settings are fairly self explanatory but the main thing is to move the server from the default port of 22 to one of your choosing, turn off root logins and define which users can log in.
PasswordAuthentication has been turned off as we setup the public/private key earlier. Do note that if you intend to access your Cloud Server from different computers you may want leave PasswordAuthentication set to yes. Only use the private key if the local computer is secure (i.e. don't put the private key on a work computer).
Note that we haven't enabled the new settings - we will restart SSH in a moment but first we need to create a simple firewall using iptables.
As said, the next thing is to set up our iptables so we have a more secure installation. To start with, we're going to have three ports open: ssh, http and https.
We're going to create two files, /etc/iptables.test.rules and /etc/iptables.up.rules. The first is a temporary (test) set of rules and the second the 'permanent' set of rules (this is the one iptables will use when starting up after a reboot for example).
Note that we are logged in as the root user. This is the only time we will log in as the root user. As such, if you are completing this step at a later date using the admin user, you will need to put a 'sudo' in front of the commands.
So, as the root user, save any existing rules to /etc/iptables.up.rules:
iptables-save > /etc/iptables.up.rules
Now let's see what's running at the moment:
iptables -L
You will see something similar to this:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination
As you can see, we are accepting anything from anyone on any port and allowing anything to happen.
One theory is that if there are no services running then it doesn't matter. I disagree. If connections to unused (and popular) ports are blocked or dropped, then the vast majority of script kiddies will move on to another machine where ports are accepting connections. It takes two minutes to set up a firewall - is it really worth not doing?
Let's assume you've decided that you want a firewall. Create the file /etc/iptables.test.rules and add some rules to it.
nano /etc/iptables.test.rules
Look at this example:
*filter # Allows all loopback (lo0) traffic and drop all traffic to 127/8 that doesn't use lo0 -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT -A INPUT ! -i lo -d 127.0.0.0/8 -j REJECT # Accepts all established inbound connections -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT # Allows all outbound traffic # You can modify this to only allow certain traffic -A OUTPUT -j ACCEPT # Allows HTTP and HTTPS connections from anywhere (the normal ports for websites) -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT # Allows SSH connections # # THE -dport NUMBER IS THE SAME ONE YOU SET UP IN THE SSHD_CONFIG FILE # -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW --dport 30000 -j ACCEPT # Allow ping -A INPUT -p icmp -m icmp --icmp-type 8 -j ACCEPT # log iptables denied calls -A INPUT -m limit --limit 5/min -j LOG --log-prefix "iptables denied: " --log-level 7 # Reject all other inbound - default deny unless explicitly allowed policy -A INPUT -j REJECT -A FORWARD -j REJECT COMMIT
The rules are very simple and it is not designed to give you the ultimate firewall. It is a simple beginning.
Hopefully you will begin to see the pattern of the configuration file. It isn't complicated and is very flexible. You can change and add ports as you see fit.
Good. Defined your rules? Then lets apply those rules to our server:
iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.test.rules
Let's see if there is any difference:
iptables -L
Notice the change? (If there is no change in the output, you did something wrong. Try again from the start).
Have a look at the rules and see exactly what is being accepted, rejected and dropped. Once you are happy with the rules, it's time to save our rules permanently:
iptables-save > /etc/iptables.up.rules
Now we need to ensure that the iptables rules are applied when we reboot the server. At the moment, the changes will be lost and it will go back to allowing everything from everywhere.
Open the file /etc/network/interfaces
nano /etc/network/interfaces
Add a single line (shown below) just after 'iface lo inet loopback':
... auto lo iface lo inet loopback pre-up iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.up.rules # The primary network interface ...
As you can see, this line will restore the iptables rules from the /etc/iptables.up.rules file. Simple but effective.
Logging in as the new user
Now we have our basic firewall humming along and we've set the ssh configuration. Now we need to test it. Reload ssh so it uses the new ports and configurations:
/etc/init.d/ssh reload
Don't logout yet...
As you have an already established connection you will not be locked out of your ssh session (look at the iptables config file: it accepts already established connections).
On your LOCAL computer, open a new terminal and log in using the administration user (in this case, demo) to the port number you configured in the sshd_config file:
ssh -p 30000 email@example.com
The reason we use a new terminal is that if you can't login you will still have the working connection to try and fix any errors.
CloudServers also has the excellent online console, in the control panel, so if it all goes horribly wrong, you can log into your Cloud Server from the Cloud Serverhost management area.
If all goes well you should login without a password to a plain terminal:
OS check and Free
First thing is to confirm what OS we're using. We know we should be using Ubuntu Hardy but let's see:
cat /etc/lsb-release
You should get an output similar to this:
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=8.04 DISTRIB_CODENAME=hardy DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 8.04"
Good. Memory usage should be very low at this point but let's check using 'free -m' (the -m suffix displays the result in MB's which I find easier to read):
free -m
It's nice to know what is going on so let's look at that output:
. total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 254 43 211 0 3 74 -/+ buffers/cache: 26 228 Swap: 511 0 511
The line to take notice of is the second one as the first line includes cached memory - in this demo Cloud Server I have 254MB of useable memory with 26MB actually used, 228MB free and no swap used. Nice.
Let's make the terminal a bit more attractive and a bit more informative by adding a few lines to our . bashrc file.
nano ~/.bashrc
Add the next few lines at the end of the existing text. The following line will make the terminal show the server name in colour and display the working directory (the directory we are in) in a different colour:
export PS1='\[\033[0;35m\]\h\[\033[0;33m\] \w\[\033[00m\]: '
If you look at the existing content of the .bashrc file, you may notice some 'PS1' content already - you can change the existing content if you prefer. This method simply changes the default output.
Now we can add aliases to the file. Aliases are short cuts to commands or sequences of commands. I've included a few below but you can have as many or as few as you want.
alias free="free -m" alias update="sudo aptitude update" alias install="sudo aptitude install" alias upgrade="sudo aptitude safe-upgrade" alias remove="sudo aptitude remove"
The examples above are pretty simple. Instead of typing 'free -m' every time I want to look at the memory usage, I just type 'free. Typing 'sudo aptitude install' can get tedious, so I just type 'install'.
I still need to provide my password for the sudo command to work, but it is more productive/quicker/easier to have short cuts.
To activate the changes issue this command:
source ~/.bashrc
You should now see the Cloud Server name in purple and the working directory in brown.
To change the colours to your choosing, adjust the 0;35m and the 0;33m values in the 'export PS1' line of your .bashrc. For example:
export PS1='\[\033[0;32m\]\h\[\033[0;36m\] \w\[\033[00m\]: '
would give you a green and blue output.
The Ubuntu Hardy Cloud Server comes with a basic set of repositories but let's have a check to see what sources we are using:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
You should see the default list as follows:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy main restricted universe deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy main restricted universe deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-updates main restricted universe deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-updates main restricted universe deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-security main restricted universe deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-security main restricted universe
You can, of course, add more repositories whenever you want to but I would just give a word of caution: Some of the available repositories are not officially supported and may not receive any security updates should a flaw be discovered.
Keep in mind it is a server we are building and security and stability are paramount.
Now we can update the sources so we have the latest list of software packages:
sudo aptitude update
NOTE: If you have used the .bashrc shown above you just need to enter 'update' as the alias will use the entire command. I've put the whole thing here so you know what is happening.
Remember the Hardy Cloud Server is a bare bones install so we need set the system locale:
sudo locale-gen en_US.UTF-8 ... sudo /usr/sbin/update-locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8
Now we have updated the sources.list repositories and set the locale, let's see if there are any upgrade options:
sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
Followed by a:
sudo aptitude full-upgrade
Once any updates have been installed, we can move on to installing some essential packages.
build essentials
Ubuntu Hardy has some handy meta-packages that include a set of pre-defined programmes needed for a single purpose.
So instead of installing a dozen different package names, you can install just one meta-package. One such package is called 'build-essential'. Issue the command:
sudo aptitude install build-essential
Notice the programs that are to be installed include gcc, make, patch and so on. All these are needed for many other programs to install properly. A neat system indeed.
Enter 'Y' and install them.
Quite a lot happening here but now we have a secured and updated Cloud Server.
The console is now informative and less drab, locales have been configured and the meta-package build-essential has been installed.
If you do this more than once or twice it doesn't take long at all and we now have the ideal base to install the 'meat' of our server.

With little effort, an undercover Tel Aviv police officer made dozens of drug
purchases out in the open, and at the bars and bathrooms of nearly a dozen clubs
in the city in recent months, as part of a police sting against the nightclub
drug trade.
The purchases carried out by the officer, a 27-year-old man
originally from the former Soviet Union, led to the arrests of 29 alleged drug
dealers in the Tel Aviv area on Tuesday morning, in a major arrest operation
involving special patrol officers, canine units, and Border Patrol undercover
In most cases cocaine was the drug scored, but the undercover
agent, "Alef," also bought LSD, MDMA and GHB (often called "the date rape drug")
on other occasions.
The investigation resulted in six Tel Aviv clubs
receiving month-long closure notices, among them some of the leading clubs in
the city, including The Cat and Dog on Carlebach Street.
At the north Tel
Aviv police station on Tuesday, Alef spoke about how he had carried out the
investigation, finding drugs with an ease that should come as no surprise to
anyone who has spent time at nightclubs in the city.
Alef said he would
go out to the clubs and talk to people at the bar, or on the dance floor, or in
waiting in line for the bathroom – which at most of the clubs named is usually
jam-packed with people doing lines of cocaine off the tops of toilets and
"It was very easy and available; really every person going out can
find these drugs easily," Alef said. "Any normal person can just go up and talk
to people."
Alef said there was a certain culture and basic level of
slang he had to learn to blend in; though at first glance, at least on the
outside, he did look like someone who had spent a few late nights listening to
trance music from the inside of a thumping bathroom stall.
Ch.-Insp. Amos Tzemah said that police "are looking to secure places of leisure
like clubs, but the second they go from being legitimate entertainment locations
to markets that allow the easy acquisition of drugs, we have to step in to
protect the public."
Tzemah said police don't believe the club owners or
bartenders are involved in the drug trade. He said all those arrested were
dealers who were not employed in the clubs and who operated with or without the
knowledge of the clubs.
In January, the Tel Aviv District announced the
completion of a separate eightmonth undercover operation against drug dealers in
Jaffa, during which an agent named "D" managed the arrests of 21 street-level

3.05/5 rDev -10.3%
Poured from a 12 oz. bottle into a standard American pint glass.
A-poured a decent white cream 1 inch soapy head; retention okay; carbonation present in the glass; somewhat filtered and clear; a little sticky lacing left behind; pale yellow straw in color
S-Not much, perhaps some light wafers, soda crackers, and malt. A little toasted grain.
T-toasted grains, malts, soda crackers, and buttered biscuits; slight lemon/citrus; dry aftertaste; slight sweet tingle at first, but then turns flat and has a soda water taste.
M-Crisp at one point, yet it felt like a light soda water. Easy drinking, light, and fizzy. The soda water taste ended up dominating the other flavors.
Overall, just 'meh'. It's not bad, it just isn't anything special. It is definitely better than certain adjunct lagers, and it would suffice at a backyard summer bbq; could easily quaff a few, no problem.

Tap at prezo in Milford.
Decent creamy frothy 1 finger head fades fairly slowly, slight hazy watery tan pilsner colored.
Nose very light, straw malts, light crisp lager note, hint pilsner malt, touch fruity lager yeast, hint grassy hops.
Taste is a bit better, more toasty pilsner malts, little straw and grain, very light malt feel, with little fruity lager note and crispness. Plenty of hops, grassy noble hops, little spicy almost American hop note, mild to fair bitterness. Finish is dry, crisp, all lingering grassy hops and fair bitterness. The noble-esque grassy leafy hops linger for quite a while.
Mouth is light bod, touch fluffy malt feel, nice carb, bit of a soft and crisp lager.
Overall ok but nothing special, malts are a but too light even for a light lager, I do like the hop profile it's quite nice and saves the beer, as well as the nice crisp soft lager notes. Nose is very light though.

2.93/5 rDev -13.8%
Appearance- light golden color, clear with a white head.
Smell- Hops, but only a little. Maybe some lemon. Not a great beer for sniffing.
Taste- Light and clean, slightly bitter finish.
Mouthfeel- Crisp
Overall- Drinkable, but not overly exciting. Probably best as a lawnmower beer.

T: Follows the nose. Fruit and grain up front with some breadiness following through into the finish
M: Light-medium bodied with moderate carbonation
O: A nice, easy drinking lager. Nothing complex or wowing, but it does make for a good session brew at 4%. If they can this, it would make for a nice camping beer

12 oz bottle into a pint glass.
A: Pours a mildly hazy straw color. The head billows vibrantly at three fingers high, with a white shade. Retention isn't fantastic, but the lacing it leaves behind is fairly prevalent.
S: Rather simplistic, as expected. Pale malts help back up mild hops, seemingly both German (grassy, sulfury) and 'Merican (herbal, citrusy) in their qualities. Serviceable, no more, no less.
T: Like I said, simple. It's little more than pale malts and a kiss of hoppiness. To be fair, there hops aren't entirely one note, hitting a middle ground between grassy noble and citrusy 'Merican flavors. There isn't a ton of flavor, but it's not quite 'watery'.
M: Heavy and viscous. No wait, I meant light and crisp. It's a bit too tingly and astringent in feel, though. High carbonation is expected, making it very easy to drink.
O: This is far more conducive to simple, mindless drinking than sitting down and reviewing it - because really, there isn't much to review here. Still, quite decent for a 4% lager.

3.48/5 rDev +2.4%
A: The beer is relatively clear pale yellow in color and has a moderate amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a thin white head that quickly died down, leaving a large patch of bubbles in the center of the glass and a collar around the edge.
S: Light aromas of pale malts are present in the nose along with some hints of grassy hops.
T: Like the smell, the taste has flavors of pale and biscuit-like malts along with notes of grassy malts. There is a light amount of bitterness and slight hints of sweetness.
M: It feels medium-bodied, a little smooth and very clean on the palate with a moderate amount of visible carbonation.
O: This beer is easy to drink and isn't a bad selection for the style. I could see this as being a lawnmower beer.

Authorities investigating the stabbing death of nursing assistant Candice Piper, 29, say she met her killer online and he could be involved in other crimes across the country.
Deandre Davoughin Hightower, 20, has been charged with murder, aggravated battery, aggravated assault and two counts of false imprisonment in connection with the Tuesday incident at Alexandria Landing apartments.
"There's some hallmarks here that tell us it could be connected with something else," Chief Thomas "Tommy" Culpepper said, adding his department will consult with the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Violent Criminal Apprehension Program, which analyzes violent crime for possible links across state and local jurisdictions and includes behavioral analysis units, such as the one portrayed in TV's Criminal Minds.
"It just seems that the circumstances surrounding this lend itself to that type of investigation," Culpepper added. "We have no evidence right now saying it's connected to anything else. We'll be sending out nationwide information trying to illicit some other information from agencies that may have similar cases."
Culpepper said investigators believe Piper met Hightower on the Internet, likely via a dating website. He had been in Cartersville a short time and had stayed at Piper's apartment about four days prior to her death.
"What someone says on the Internet might not be exactly the package you find when they arrive," he said. "We caution people to be very careful [online]."
Authorities say Hightower began stabbing Piper in her bedroom after she returned home and some type of argument between the two ensued. Piper was found in her living room with multiple stab wounds following the 9:50 a.m. call to 911.
During the altercation, Hightower allegedly pushed against a wall a second woman in the apartment.
Rosa Williams, a CNA at Starcrest according to her Facebook page, was sleeping on Piper's couch when the altercation began and in fear fled the apartment to seek help from neighbors, police said.
Piper sustained multiple stab wounds, mainly to the upper body, both front and back, Capt. Mark Camp said. Police recovered several knives from the apartment and two suitcases containing Hightower's personal belongings, which he apparently carried into the woods behind a nearby church as he fled on foot after the alleged killing.
"There's some information that's been revealed through interviews and through looking at the crime scene that tell us this might not be just an act of passion," Culpepper said. "...I don't want to go to sleep at night thinking there's an unsolved case out there somewhere and we've fallen short of trying to find out exactly who it is that done this."
Authorities said Hightower has been cooperative, but described his behavior as "fairly reticent" or reserved and calm. A drifter, Hightower has ID's in 10 other states, according to CBS Atlanta, and stayed in an Atlanta homeless shelter before coming to Cartersville, where he allegedly used four knives in the stabbing, Fox 5 reports. Police said he could be a native of Florida, Kentucky or New Jersey.
"One of the reasons we want to get some analysis on his behavior through ViCAP is to determine is that an indicator of anything else. Is there something we've yet to uncover?" Culpepper said. "He has made some statements to investigators about his involvement" in the local incident, but there is no clear motive.
As the picture of an alleged killer comes together, Piper's family and friends mourn the loss of a woman described as sweet and helpful.
"Candice was one of the most sweetest, kindest, nicest, women I've ever known, she would have given you the shirt off her back if you needed it," Candice's mother, Debbie Piper of Dallas, said in a Facebook post. "I don't know how I'm going to make it with out my Candice. It feels like we have a black [cloud] hanging over my family."
Piper was a certified nursing assistant employed by Cartersville's former Starcrest nursing home, Townsend Park, a co-worker said.
"My mother and I worked with her for the past 3 years," commented Cartersville Patch user Aubrey. "She was a very sweet woman and had a big heart and full of the Lord's Spirit! May she Rest in Peace. I love you!"
