Configuring Dynamic DNS & DHCP on Debian Stable
Posted by ajt on Tue 31 Jan 2006 at 08:37
For the average home computer user there is no need to install a complex package such as the Internet Software Consortium's BIND DNS or DHCP server, since there are far simpler lower resource tools to use, for example dnsmasq. For those who you wish to learn how to use ISC's BIND and DHCP, for example as a learning exercise, this is how I got it all to work in Debian Sarge, the current stable version of Debian GNU/Linux.
This short article was prompted by my question on the Debian-Administration forum site, where I was able to get some answers to the issues I faced and I did promise to post a solution if I got one.
Installation of Packages
The version of ISC BIND DNS and DHCP servers installed by default in Debian stable are the older versions, which will not actually work together. If you have either server installed you need to remove it and upgrade to the newer version of each package. The newer versions are available in the Debian stable archive so you do not need a back-port from testing.
[user@box ~]$ sudo aptitude remove bind dhcp [user@box ~]$ sudo aptitude install bind9 dhcp3-server
aptitude or
apt-get figure out and resolve
any dependencies. You will get a set of basic configuration files and
start scripts all created for you in the usual Debian way.
To set-up DNS you need to set your domain rules as per normal
BIND9 format. BIND9 does have a reputation for being complex
but you can find help in the
man pages which are
complete, if very long, and there are good books to help you get
through (see below). Setting up the DHCP server is by comparison
much simpler; set that up as you need.
The hard bit is getting the two to talk to each other, as this is less well documented and the documentation that does exist does contradict itself. It was my difficulties with getting the DHCP server to automatically update the DNS server that lead me ask a question on the D-A.org web site. Though I got no perfect answer, I was able to piece together enough to generate this working solution.
Configuring BIND9
You need to tell BIND that it is okay to allow other applications
to update it. I added the following to my BIND9 configuration,
everything else was left as stock Debian. My DHCP server and
DNS server are on the box, so here I am only allowing
to perform the update. The file
rndc-key is a file
containing a shared secret, so that BIND9 knows that it is an
approved application sending instructions.
controls { inet 127.0.0.1 allow {localhost; } keys { "rndc-key"; }; };
Here is my local zone details, suitably modified. Here I let BIND know which domains it can update; in my case I only have one domain to deal with. I am also loading in the shared secret key in at this stage. You can see I am using a private IP address range.
// Add local zone definitions here. zone "network.athome" { type master; file "/etc/bind/db.network"; allow-update { key "rndc-key"; }; notify yes; }; zone "0.168.192.in-addr.arpa" { type master; file "/etc/bind/db.192.168.0"; allow-update { key "rndc-key"; }; notify yes; }; include "/etc/bind/rndc.key";
The secret key is created with a tool. If your DHCP and DNS servers are on separate machines you need to copy the file between them or arrange for one machine to remotely access the file system of the other.
key "rndc-key" { algorithm hmac-md5; secret "lgkbhjhtthgtlghtl6567=="; };
db files
Set up your zone databases as normal. You do not need to do anything fancy.
Configuring DHCP3 Server
By default the ISC DHCP3 server shipped in Debian Sarge does not do dynamic DNS update. You simply need to enable it. Below are the options I selected for my system.
You have to turn on the updating with the
ddns-update-style interim
command. I have
client-updates ignore as Windows
machines try to set their FQDN, not just their
hostname, which causes problems. I have included the key so the
two server daemons can trust each other.
# Basic stuff to name the server and switch on updating server-identifier server; ddns-updates on; ddns-update-style interim; ddns-domainname "network.athome."; ddns-rev-domainname "in-addr.arpa."; ignore client-updates; # This is the key so that DHCP can authenticate it's self to BIND9 include "/etc/bind/rndc.key"; # This is the communication zone zone network.athome. { primary 127.0.0.1; key rndc-key; } # Normal DHCP stuff option domain-name "network.athome."; option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.60, 192.168.0.1; option ntp-servers 192.168.0.60; option ip-forwarding off; default-lease-time 600; max-lease-time 7200; authoritative; log-facility local7; subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { range 192.168.0.100 192.168.0.200; option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255; option routers 192.168.0.1; allow unknown-clients; zone 0.168.192.in-addr.arpa. { primary 192.168.0.60; key "rndc-key"; } zone localdomain. { primary 192.168.0.60; key "rndc-key"; } }

One question though:
you write:
The secret key is created with a tool.
Sorry for missing the obvious part: which tool?

$ apropos rndc
rndc (8) - name server control utility
rndc-confgen (8) - rndc key generation tool
rndc.conf (5) - rndc configuration file
so I'll guess it's rndc-confgen, then.

I'm sure this question is answered once I get this set up. But what happens with a static ip address i'm assigning through dhcp? Does it get the hostname from the dhcp config and then use that to update dns? Or am I missing the point?

My static machines retain their hostname and fully qualified domain name as they ignore DHCP totally. They have static enteries in my DNS.
My work machine has a work hostname and FQDN. Work's machine is not in my DNS, so it uses DHCP and it retains it's hostname, but is placed in the domain of the DHCP server, not work's. Once it's in my domain, DNS know where it is and I can access it via it's hostname or FQDN.
Does this help?

what i do is i have all my machines set to get their info thorugh dhcp. Some of these machines i want on fixed ip addresses (various reasons) but I want them getting their information from dhcp, but i want to make sure that it won't hurt anything. The more I think about it, the more it seems like I would just leave my static configurations the way they are, and just new machines (laptops) that come in and out of my network would possibly change ip address. But where does the hostname come from? I'd assume the hostname configured on the client.
For example
machine with a hostname of foo contacts dhcp for the athome.network domain, this then gives it ip address ...100 and then there is a dynamic dns entry for foo.athome.network

I had a few issues that were eventually resolved simply, but were a bit tedious to track down, since "no one is having this problem but me!"
I had setup everything like the article says (i made some typos, but we don't have to cover that) but things weren't working and i couldn't find what I didn't do right.
to debug the problem
I edited /etc/default/bind9 so that options read
OPTIONS="-u bind -g -d 20"
and then restarted bind9 in a window
and in another window i stopped the /etc/init.d/dhcpd3-server and ran the command
dhcpd3 -d -f 2>&1 | tee dhcp3.log
and in another window, i did a
tail -f /var/log/daemon.log
this way, from a test machine, i could renew my lease, and see what happened between the daemons
But everytime i'd try and renew a lease on a test machine, i'd get the message
named[30593]: client 127.0.0.1#49087: request has invalid signature: TSIG rndc-key: tsig verify failure (BADKEY)
so, i looked around for rndc information and came across the rndc-confgen program
running it, it gave me a config for a /etc/rndc.conf file and a new /etc/bind/rndc.key file
i made sure that the /etc/rndc.conf file's key and what was in /etc/bind/rndc.key matched
so, that took care of that message, but then i started getting the messages
named[30901]: db.rdu90.com.jnl: create: permission denied
Ok, so i'm about to make my big mistake here. What happened was, I saw that my /etc/bind directory was owned by smmsp, which had to have been done by the package management system, and so i didn't want to mess with that. So, I figured i'd provde a couple of 0 length .jnl files and chown them to bind. Then it could do what it needed...right?
so, i execute
touch db.mydomain.com.nl
touch db.192.168.1.jnl
and chown them both to bind
at this point i begin seeing the following messages
client 127.0.0.1#49097: updating zone 'your.domain/IN': error: journal open failed: no more
dhcpd dhcpd: Unable to add forward map from
host.yourdomain.com to ##.##.##.##: timed out
/etc/bind/named.conf:59: couldn't install keys for command channel 127.0.0.1#953: permission denied
/etc/bind/named.conf:59: couldn't add command channel 127.0.0.1#953: permission denied
at this point, i figured since the /etc/bind directory was group 'bind', i'd just give the group write permissions (i am loathe to change perms on directories apt controls since this might get changed back during an upgrade)
and everything started working perfectly
this site helped a lot
that explained to me what the log messages meant
what i'd like to know is if there's someplace else i should have these journal files being written as i don't know if bind should be able to write to that directory
i'm very happy with having this done overall, i've wanted to do it for years actually. thank you for this article.

Not for sounding too lazy, but you wouldn't have a simple Bind9 setup article too? I am writing a script to install a domain controller with Samba, bind, dhcp and squid. Got most of the rest figured out but this bind thingy is giving me the runaround :-(

BIND is dead easy for a simple network, I've got 6 machines with static addresses, a work notebook on DHCP and a variable number of guests also on DHCP. I have only one server and a handful of aliases for Apache and that's it.
It all starts to get messy when you several domains/sub-domains and email routing can make it all awfully complex. For a simple home network the O'Reilly book and the man page should be all you need.
I could write up a noddy BIND9, but I suspect that there are several out there already.
However I'll see if I can get round to a BIND9 how-to...

allow-update { key "rndc-key"; };
It's worth to note in RedHat-based distributions you must write:
allow-update { key "rndckey"; };
(notice the lack of the hyphen)

One thing I noticed on both debian and Ubuntu:
Ensure that your /etc/bind directory is writable for bind (chown bind:bind /etc/bind). Otherwise you will get an error in your logs telling you that bind is unable to create a journal file. By default the /etc/bind directory is owned by root and is not writable by bind.
Thanks again.

Don't do that; point instead the dinamically updatable zone files within /var/cache/bind/ which already is writable by bind.
On a side note I'd prefer all dynamic updates going into a subdomain (like dyn.example.com) in order to "sandbox" mistakes or hack attempts from the "main server's" domains.

Moral of the story: if things don't seem to be working, make sure bind can write to BOTH the main bind/namedb folder, and to any folders within it.

I wanted this problem solved the other way around, wich means have the client in dns, and use dhcp for giving the ip. With a record in dns, all you need is the client mac, and this in dchp server conf:
host hostname {
hardware ethernet XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX;
fixed-address hostname.homedomain;
This can be mixed with ordinary dhcp setup wich you describe. Why use this setup? Well, you don't allow unknown mac's on your LAN and you don't risk having two clients using the same name (which has happen on a windows system at my work). If you want to move your LAN to another IP - say from 192.168.X.X to 10.10.X.X - you just have a zone file to adjust.
I use this on my linux wlan AP as well, using the mac in firewalls rules and in dchpd.

i have a problem. I have a server DNS BIND and DHCP. The records are updated dynamically. When i create a static record for example mihost.dominio.com and a workstation get an ip address through DHCP and the machine has the same fqdn (mihost.dominio.com) the new record is updated and the old static record is rewrited. CAN I PROTECT MY STATICS RECORDS???? I DONT WANT THAT MY STATICS RECORDS WERE REWRITED.

If you have your ranges set correctly: non-overlapping, there is no reason why dynamic records should update your static records.

I've noticed there are tons of examples on this but none of them seem to work on my environment.
Maybe anyone can enlighten my problem.
What I've got:
Squeeze with dhcp3 (stable) and bind9 on static ip 192.168.2.1.
All work well, other debian servers (having the same domain) in the lan get an ip.
On the dns server i can add A records using nsupdate (also visible in syslog).
However, the dhcp deamon does not issue requests to update my zone (at least I don't see any in syslog, and nslookup on their hostnames fail).
This is my dhcpd.conf configuration:
server-identifier dns.home.i;
ddns-updates on;
ddns-update-style interim;
ddns-domainname "home.i.";
ddns-rev-domainname "in-addr.arpa.";
ignore client-updates;
# This is the key so that DHCP can authenticate it's self to BIND9
include "/etc/bind/rndc.key";
# This is the communication zone
zone home.i. {
primary 127.0.0.1;
key rndc-key;
# Normal DHCP stuff
option domain-name "home.i.";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.2.1;
option ntp-servers 192.168.2.1;
option ip-forwarding off;
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
log-facility local7;
subnet 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.2.100 192.168.2.200;
option broadcast-address 192.168.2.255;
option routers 192.168.2.1;
allow unknown-clients;
zone 2.168.192.in-addr.arpa. {
primary 192.168.2.1;
key "rndc-key";
zone home.i. {
primary 192.168.2.1;
key "rndc-key";
Been at for days no and it is breaking my head.
[ Parent | Reply to this comment ]
Trouble with that idea is it looks like nsupdate from dnsutils 1:9.6.ESV.R4+d does not work. Every command at the prompt (eg "server foo") gives an error ("incorrect section name: server"). Is there something built-in to DHCPD to do the trick instead?
[And that dnsupdate requires keyfiles with names of the format K<keyname>.146.00000.{private,key} if I recall right, not "rndc.key", and would need a .private file to go with the .key file; one can debug it with the help of strace]

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- North Carolina State has added talented freshman T.J. Warren to a starting front line that features preseason Atlantic Coast Conference player of the year C.J. Leslie and league-leading rebounder Richard Howell.
It could give the Wolfpack a big rebounding advantage against North Carolina's revamped small lineup.
Coach Mark Gottfried says he plans to start Warren for the second straight game Saturday after the forward had season-highs of 31 points and 13 rebounds against Florida State. Gottfried says he felt his team hasn't rebounded as well as it should, but Warren helped the Wolfpack dominate the Seminoles on the boards.
UNC coach Roy Williams says he plans to stay with a four-guard lineup that has 6-foot-5 sophomore guard P.J. Hairston at the 4-spot while matching up with Leslie.

Starfleet uniform (late 2360s-early 2370s)
this wiki
In the late 2360s, the Starfleet uniform was changed from the previous design, mainly switching the division color to the shoulders.
The next major redesign occurred in 2373. However, this uniform continued to be used until 2378 on the USS Voyager, due to the ship being trapped in the Delta Quadrant. (Star Trek: First Contact; DS9: "Rapture"; VOY: "Endgame")
Standard duty uniform
By the year 2369, Starfleet had introduced a new standard duty uniform, a less formal uniform than the previous version which reversed the familiar two-tone arrangement of black over department colors from the previous uniform style. The combadge was updated around this time with the new Starfleet insignia, although some flag officer uniforms still used the previous design.
The new uniform was a loose-fitting, two-piece black jumpsuit with division color on the shoulders, usually worn with an open collar over a blue-gray mock-turtleneck shirt. Under the uniform jacket and shirt was an undershirt with the same blue-gray of the mock turtleneck. Comparable to a utility jumpsuit, the uniform was first used aboard space stations before eventually coming into service aboard starships in 2371.
Despite being worn in conjunction with the more formal duty uniform, the new variant eventually came into exclusive use aboard starships before its retirement in 2373. (Star Trek Generations; VOY: "Caretaker"; DS9: "Emissary", "Rapture")
Engineer's Overcoat
B'Elanna Torres wore a functional overcoat over her traditional uniform. It mirrored the uniform design, with gold shoulder coloring. As well as adding an additional layer for protection, it provided small pockets for tools. (VOY Season 4)
Maternity uniform
Maternity versions of the uniforms were also available, consisting of a uniform top that, instead of being tucked in as on the standard uniform, flared out below the waist. (VOY: "Tattoo", "Deadlock", "Endgame")
Uniform undershirt
This uniform was worn with two layers of shirts under the uniform jacket. The first layer was the long sleeve blue-gray color mock-turtleneck upon which the wearers rank insignia was worn. This shirt was visible when the jacket was worn, and beneath this was either a female or male undershirt of the same blue-gray color.
There were two versions of undershirts available. A sleeveless undershirt that was tucked into the uniform pants just below the breast, but lower than the previous undershirt. This undershirt also had a lower neckline with less material used on the shoulders when compared to the previous version. (VOY: "Year of Hell, Part II") A short sleeved tee was also used, tucked into the pants at the waistline. This style was worn by both sexes. (VOY: "Thirty Days", "Latent Image")
Flag officer uniform
The last version of the flag officer uniform from the previous style was retained while these uniforms were in use. These uniforms were retired in 2374 for the next design. (TNG: "Realm of Fear"; DS9: "Behind the Lines")
Dress uniform
The dress uniform style from the previous uniform was retained while this uniform was in use. This uniform style was used by Starfleet until its retirement in 2374, though officers aboard the USS Voyager used it (though sparingly) throughout their mission in the Delta Quadrant. (DS9: "The Adversary", "Rejoined", "Crossfire"; VOY: "Course: Oblivion", "Someone to Watch Over Me", "Tinker Tenor Doctor Spy", "One Small Step", "Ashes to Ashes")
Combat jacket
For situations that called for a Starfleet officer to serve in hazardous battle operations, a ground combat jacket was available by 2373.
Made of a harder, more durable substance than standard uniforms, the combat jacket was worn like body armor over the standard duty uniform.
Consisting of a black, textured material, the uniform's only distinguishing feature was a thick line of division color running across the yoke. (DS9: "Nor the Battle to the Strong")
Excursion uniform
Available to officers serving aboard starships as early as 2371, gray jumpsuits were worn during certain away missions if conditions warranted. In 2373, officers from the starship Voyager wore these gray uniforms on a rock climbing excursion on an alien planet.
Marked by a stripe of division color across the chest, these jumpsuits were tight-fitting and trimmed in a metallic-silver material. Allowing for more taxing physical activity, these uniforms were worn with specialized boots with treads better suited to mountainous or more rugged terrain. (VOY: "Blood Fever")
Uniforms similar to these were worn beneath environmental suits. (VOY: "Friendship One")
Training uniform
Similar in make to the excursion-type uniforms in use aboard starships in the 2370s, the training uniform was a gray, short-sleeved jumpsuit worn with specialized boots bearing enhanced treads. The uniform style lacked any rank insignia, noticeably in the collar area as the jumpsuit had an open neck. Female styles had a lower, but narrower open neck than their male counterparts.
These uniforms were used in situations in which increased physical activity warranted something less confining and more flexible than the standard duty uniform.
Marked by a strip of division color running across the chest and down the sleeves, these uniforms had low collars and were tight-fitting. (VOY: "Learning Curve", "Q2")
Flight suit
During their participation in the Antarian Trans-stellar Rally in 2377, USS Voyager officers Tom Paris, B'Elanna Torres and Harry Kim donned special flight suits.
Consisting of sleek, tight-fitting jumpsuits, the flight suits were black and gray with stark white shoulders and red trim. The uniforms featured high collars and distinctive closures running down the front. (VOY: "Drive")
Medical attire
During surgical sessions, scrubs were provided to doctors in a blue-gray in color. These scrubs were worn by medical personnel in battlefield hospitals. (DS9: "Nor the Battle to the Strong")
Patient attire
Patients wore a plain blue garment while receiving care in battlefield hospitals. (DS9: "Nor the Battle to the Strong")
Cadet uniform
By the early-2370s, the Starfleet cadet uniform was modified to keep it distinct from the standard duty uniform.
Retaining the same basic shape and style of the previous design, the new uniform was now gray with division color shoulders. With this modification, all visible rank insignia was also removed.
While this uniform saw use through 2374, a new cadet uniform was introduced to some cadets as early as 2372. (DS9: "Homefront", "Favor the Bold", "Field of Fire")
Other features
Depending on their various circumstances and traditions, some Starfleet officers were allowed to augment their uniforms with the addition of cultural items.
Klingon Starfleet officer Worf wore a baldric displaying various family emblems throughout his tenure in Starfleet. (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior")
Ferengi cadet Nog wore a headdress traditional among his people. (DS9: "Homefront")
Scientists sometimes also adorned their Starfleet uniforms differently than other officers, wearing lab coats over their standard uniforms. (VOY: "The Swarm")

Septons are the male clergy of the Faith of the Seven. They preside over religious ceremonies such as weddings. They have taken vows of celibacy, and often take important positions in a noble household. In contrast, female clergy are known as septas. The leader of the Faith of the Seven is known as the High Septon.
Season 2
An unidentified septon performs the secret wedding of Robb Stark to Talisa Maegyr.[1]

In the books
In the A Song of Ice and Fire novels, the Faith is ruled over by a council known as the Most Devout. The head of the Faith is known as the High Septon, who resides within the Great Sept of Baelor in the city of King's Landing. Whilst septons and septas serve on the council of the Most Devout, the High Septon is usually male.

AUBURN | Gus Malzahn spent a year preparing for the Tigers' game against Florida State -- stabilizing the program, installing his systems, refining things throughout the season.
So when the Seminoles walked off the field winners inside the Rose Bowl earlier this week, the Auburn coach struggled to find proper perspective. Getting to that point, one game to win a championship, isn't easy.
Losing that game stings worse than most.
"There's no doubt it's pretty tough when you get that close," Malzahn said Friday. "You've got to find a way to move on. We're looking forward."
He'll also be looking back occasionally.
"We'll work extremely hard to get back there and redeem ourselves," Malzahn added. "You're always looking for things to motivate you. That's a very motivating thing for me."
Auburn's season ended on a sour note. A coverage bust yielded Florida State a 48-yard gain with one minute remaining, which changed the game's momentum in a way that couldn't be reversed. The Seminoles scored with 17 seconds remaining.

bug I noticed was the bookmarks remain plain with no markings, tho the ballon will let you know which is which, there is no recognizable iconI tried unchecking then rechecking the bookmark option, but no change....still round-plain orbs as opposed to iconshope you fix it soon
also, I was able to add shockwave, but not flash!!!!!
important questiongoogle chrome 16.0.912.63 has been release and contain MAJOR security fixes which can be read in here.http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/my question is , does DRAGON 16.1 ALREADY contain this fixes ? since it was release some days BEFORE google chrome 16.......
Yes it does its using the same build as stable Chrome 16.0.912.63. "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/535.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Comodo_Dragon/220.127.116.11 Chrome/16.0.912.63 Safari/535.7 "
as far as i understand all security fixes in google chrome 16.0.912.63 , made by google only , and they also pay money for the holes finders , so HOW come its already in dragon 16 which was release some days back BEFORE google chrome ? what am i missing in here ?
as far as i understand all security fixes in google chrome 16.0.912.63 , made by google only , and they also pay money for the holes finders , so HOW come its already in dragon 16 which was release some days back BEFORE google chrome ? what am i missing in here ?
Note: Dragon uses flash plug-in and not ActiveX as Internet explorer does.Download plug-in here and execute it with Dragon closed to install.Hope that helps.
Off-topic rant: I believe that users do this because they are paid by Google, or just Google fanboys at best, to start raising FUD. Just a thought. You are free to use Chrome to be up-to-date, if you are so worried. (If you are "just wondering," it simply means that they should be forced to imply everything A.S.A.P., you should be a DEV and see why it's not a walk in the park.)
the most idiotic conclusion i hear for long time around this place.damn man , i dont give a fXXX on google chrome , in matter of fact i hate them ( regarding the Chromium source code security fixes).i already declared , i switch to use dragon OVER google chrome some time back ...so next time check your self before sound pathetic
ok, I got the favicons going after the postand I'm waiting for flash plug to DLthx for the helpkw
I don't even know why people are discussing Chrome in this thread. Chrome is what we want to avoid. All Comodo is doing with Dragon is making sure its synced with the most stable version of CHROMIUM possible, usually the one that becomes Chrome, and add their own security features. Stop fighting about Chrome.

22 U.S. Code § 2151u - Private and voluntary organizations and cooperatives in overseas development
prev | next
(a) Congressional finding of importance of participation by private and voluntary organizations
The Congress finds that the participation of rural and urban poor people in their countries' development can be assisted and accelerated in an effective manner through an increase in activities planned and carried out by private and voluntary organizations and cooperatives. Such organizations and cooperatives, embodying the American spirit of self-help and assistance to others to improve their lives and incomes, constitute an important means of mobilizing private American financial and human resources to benefit poor people in developing countries. The Congress declares that it is in the interest of the United States that such organizations and cooperatives expand their overseas development efforts without compromising their private and independent nature. The Congress further declares that the financial resources of such organizations and cooperatives should be supplemented by the contribution of public funds for the purpose of undertaking development activities in accordance with the principles set forth in section 2151–1 of this title and, if necessary and determined on a case-by-case basis, for the purpose of sharing the cost of developing programs related to such activities. The Congress urges the Administrator of the agency primarily responsible for administering subchapter I of this chapter, in implementing programs authorized under subchapter I of this chapter, to draw on the resource of private and voluntary organizations and cooperatives to plan and carry out development activities and to establish simplified procedures for the development and approval of programs to be carried out by such private and voluntary organizations and cooperatives as have demonstrated a capacity to undertake effective development activities.
(b) Payment of transportation charges on shipments by American National Red Cross and United States voluntary agencies
In order to further the efficient use of United States voluntary contributions for development, relief, and rehabilitation of friendly peoples, the President is authorized to use funds made available for the purposes of this part and part X of this subchapter to pay transportation charges on shipments by the American National Red Cross and by United States voluntary agencies registered with the Agency for International Development.
(c) Reimbursement for transportation charges
Reimbursement under this section may be provided for transportation charges on shipments from United States ports, or in the case of excess or surplus property supplied by the United States from foreign ports, to ports of entry abroad or to points of entry abroad in cases
(4) where a substantial savings in costs or time can be effected by the utilization of points of entry other than ports.
(d) Arrangements with receiving country for free entry of shipments and for availability of local currency to defray transportation costs
Where practicable, the President shall make arrangements with the receiving country for free entry of such shipments and for the making available by the country of local currencies for the purpose of defraying the transportation costs of such shipments from the port or point of entry of the receiving country to the designated shipping point of the consignee.
(e) Continuation of support for programs in countries antedating prohibitions on assistance; national interest considerations; report to Congress
Prohibitions on assistance to countries contained in this chapter or any other Act shall not be construed to prohibit assistance by the agency primarily responsible for administering subchapter I of this chapter in support of programs of private and voluntary organizations and cooperatives already being supported prior to the date such prohibition becomes applicable. The President shall take into consideration, in any case in which statutory prohibitions on assistance would be applicable but for this subsection, whether continuation of support for such programs is in the national interest of the United States. If the President continues such support after such date, he shall prepare and transmit, not later than one year after such date, to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and to the chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate a report setting forth the reasons for such continuation.
(f) Funds for private and voluntary organizations
For each of the fiscal years 1986 through 1989, funds in an amount not less than thirteen and one half percent of the aggregate amount appropriated for that fiscal year to carry out sections 2151a (a), 2151b (b), 2151b (c), 2151c, 2151d, 2151s, [1] and 2292 of this title shall be made available for the activities of private and voluntary organizations, and the President shall seek to channel funds in an amount not less than 16 percent of such aggregate amount for the activities of private and voluntary organizations. Funds made available under part IV of subchapter II of this chapter for the activities of private and voluntary organizations may be considered in determining compliance with the requirements of this subsection.
(g) Repealed. Pub. L. 105–277, div. A, § 101(d) [title II], Oct. 21, 1998, 112 Stat. 2681–150, 2681–156
(h) Promotion of democratic cooperatives
The Congress recognizes that, in addition to their role in social and economic development, cooperatives provide an opportunity for people to participate directly in democratic decisionmaking. Therefore, assistance under this part shall be provided to rural and urban cooperatives which offer large numbers of low- and middle-income people in developing countries an opportunity to participate directly in democratic decisionmaking. Such assistance shall be designed to encourage the adoption of self-help, private sector cooperative techniques and practices which have been successful in the United States.

Thomasville, GA- Keeping track of your car insurance card can sometimes be a hassle, but a new government proposal could make it easier for some folks to do so.
The plan from Monroe Republican Bruce Williamson has been cleared by the State House of Representatives.
Williamson says the idea of electronic car insurance cards would bring Georgia traffic laws into the 21st century.
Under the proposal, drivers would be able to access their proof of insurance through their smartphones.
Williamson says the electronic cards would be more convenient
We spoke to some drivers in Georgia, and they seem to agree.
"I'd totally do that," said Thomasville resident, Seth Golden. "I would really like to do that. It'd be a lot easier than having to keep track of your insurance information."
Georgia driver Ben Peters added, "It'd be much more convenient. You get those cards every six months or year; I'm always throwing out old ones, putting new ones in. So if I had it on my phone, I always have my phone. It'd be great."
Those who support the proposal say electronic cards would also be more convenient for anyone driving a vehicle other than their personal car, such as a rental car or company car.
The proposal will now head to the Senate.

Calibre 751E
Equipped with Jaeger_LeCoultre Calibre 751E, the AMVOX2 DBS Transponder watch combines extraordinary mechanical innovation with the qualities of reliability, sturdiness, longevity and precision that are the hallmarks of all Jaeger-LeCoultre mechanisms. The 65-hour power reserve further increases the length of time during which the watch can be relied on to function with optimal accuracy. Meanwhile, a complex column-wheel (a defining feature in high-end chronographs) and an extremely sophisticated vertical coupling system guarantee the precision timing of the chronograph. The adjustment of the balance wheel's inertia, thanks to the presence of four screws on its felly or rim, ensures the setting remains stable in all conditions. Finally, the rotor's ball-bearing mechanism contains ceramic balls providing the valuable advantage of never needing lubrication, thus further enhancing the watch's long-term reliability.

The Agency's exceptions to the arbitration award have been before the Federal Labor Relations Authority for three + years and that is where the case currently rests.

The Federal Labor Relations Authority (FLRA) has recently issued a decision that dismisses DHS's Exceptions to the arbitrator's award concerning the hourly "rate of pay" for "suffer or permit" overtime claimants. This decision does not come as any surprise to your Union, AFGE, as we always knew that DHS had filed the bogus Exceptions just to slow down payment to it's employees. During the course of the Exceptions before the FLRA AFGE has continued to litigate this case before the arbitrator.

Yes or No to the Signature Cocktail at your Wedding?
First of all, let's define the signature cocktail. The signature cocktail is an adult beverage made specifically for the wedding. Sometimes there is just one cocktail and sometimes there are two separate ones – one for the groom and one for the bride. But should you bother? In most circumstances, I think having a signature cocktail of some kind is a great idea. Here are a couple of ways to think about the signature cocktail for your wedding:
- Memorable – Instead of just the standard bar fare, guests can enjoy something special. By creating something that is unique to your wedding, guests have yet another memory associated with your special day.
- Cultural – I once went to a wedding where the bride was of Vietnamese heritage and the groom was of Irish heritage. They created two worlds with their cocktails: one based with sake and one based with Irish stout beer.
- Control – Unfortunately, cost and logistics are always an important part of a wedding. Creating signature cocktails and limiting a menu can be a way to help control costs and reduce some of the logistical issues associated with hosting a full bar. Not to mention, it makes it easier for the bartender to quickly serve drinks to thirsty guests.
As I say over and over again, it is the little details and special touches that make weddings go from great to amazing. The signature cocktail can definitely be one of those details.

Brian Jeremy's Safehouse
this wiki
Brian Jeremy's Safehouse is a safehouse in The Lost and Damned. It is unlocked after the mission "Bad Standing", when Johnny Klebitz kills Brian Jeremy or lets him escape.
The safehouse is essentially a dilapidated, untidy three-floor yellow corner townhouse at Emery Street in west Tudor, Alderney, just below the western half of Plumber's Skyway. While seemingly appearing with three floors up front, the player can only access two floors of the building inside, as the second staircase is destroyed. If the player manages to reach the third floor the door is not accessible. The building is also permanently boarded from the front, so the player can only enter the house from its back door. As with the Lost Clubhouse, Liberty City Hardcore can be heard inside from two radios (one in the kitchen, and one on the second floor).
The safehouse was originally Brian Jeremy's home. During "Bad Standing", Johnny (along with Terry Thorpe and Clay Simons, if the player chooses) attacks Brian's house and kills everyone in there and heads to Brian's room and decides to kill him or let him live. If the player chooses to execute Brian, Johnny will shoot him in the throat.
Upon completion of the mission, the player will receive a text message from Jim Fitzgerald informing that the player can use Brian's safehouse, adding it "beats that old bed at the clubhouse".
After the final mission Get Lost is completed, this becomes the only accessible safehouse in the game as the Lost MC Clubhouse was burnt down in the ending.
Differences in GTA IV, TLAD and TBoGT
The design of the safehouse interchanges between the base game, Grand Theft Auto IV, and its DLCs, including the The Ballad of Gay Tony. It appears in two forms, as either a non-interactive location or a fully interactive safehouse, although both renditions are near identical in terms of the exterior's designs except the back door, and second story window present in the interactive rendition. The former design is present in GTA IV, where as the safehouse in The Lost and Damned, is, obviously interactive. In the Ballad of Gay Tony, however, the house initially assumes the appearance of the GTA IV rendition, before changing to the version in The Lost and Damned at a certain point in the game, this point in time when the building changes is the same time that in The Lost and Damned, Johnny Klebitz takes over the building.
It is actually possible to enter the safehouse in TBoGT. All you have to do, is to get a bigger car, e.g. Speedo or Ambulance, then park it in front of the barricaded door (the one to the street) and climb up until you stand on the projecting roof. Now aim to the wall with your pistol so that you can strafe to the right. Go as far as possible, until you stand on the very right edge of it. Shoot the lower window and jump slightly to the right so that you get through the window. The interior is the same like in TLAD, so you can move around inside the whole house. If you want to exit the building, simply jump out of the window you came in.
- It is actually possible to get access to the top floor. There are two ways to do so. One way is to cause an explosion with the propane tank in the corner adjacent to the staircase. And the other way may take some time: Jump on the beam that juts out of the staircase. Doing so may propel the player high enough to reach the third floor. Sometimes when this is done the player may cling onto the ledge and jump up, in which they will glitch through the third, and second floor, repeatedly going up and down. If this happens just keep going towards the end of the hallway and you should spawn up on the third floor.
- There is a TV inside, but it is not plugged in and therefore not watchable.
- There is a climb/cancel glitch that can be done with the back of the couch in the safehouse that will cause the player to go through the wall and be outside of the house in an invisible world.
- The safehouse has been left in an extremely untidy state. Aside from the front door being boarded up, cockroaches can be seen crawling around the floor if you look closely. The bathrooms are also incredibly dirty, unhygenic and unwashed, with a sink that looks to have been thrown up in, an unflushed toilet with feces and toilet paper, and a bathtub with brown, dirty water with a beer can, cigarettes and a condom floating in it. Several other things include dirty sofas, litter, and a broken computer in the back room of the safehouse. It may be the dirtiest Safehouse of the entire series.
- If the player has completed all of the Bike Races, Angus' Bike Thefts, and shot all fifty Seagulls, thus unlocking a Hakuchou, Bati 800, and Innovation, respectively, before completing Bad Standing, the bikes will appear around the safehouse after receiving the text from Jim awarding Johnny the safehouse.
- There are many similar houses around Alderney.
- There is a condom and beer can in the bathroom tubs just like the bathtub of Dwayne Forge's apartment.
- This, Diaz's Mansion/Vercetti Estate, the Playboy X's Penthouse and the Vanilla Unicorn are the only safehouses to be given to the player after killing the owner.

If there was one thing Marquis Cooper loved, it was fishing. But it was that love, which led to Marquis and two of his close friends, Will Blakely and Corey Smith to lose their lives.
Now two years after that deadly boating trip, the lone survivor, Nick Schuyler is sharing his story in his book, "Not Without Hope."
Nick says he needed to set the story straight. He says, "Because of all the rumors that had been going on, I couldn't take it."
But not everyone agrees with Schuyler's account of what went on out in the gulf.
Bruce Cooper, Marquis' dad says he doesn't believe what Schuyler says.
Cooper says, "From the moment Nick hits the water, he becomes superman. He is saving people. He is giving mouth to mouth. He's doing everything that defies seasickness."
Bruce Cooper does not believe things went down the way Nick describes it.
He doesn't say what he believes did happen, but for some reason he questions Nick's accounts.
But only Schuyler says he knows what happened and that was why he wrote the book, to set the story straight.

Miami, November 21, 2012 -
Applications are now being accepted for the longstanding Francisco Foundation Scholarship at Miami Dade College. The application period will close December 19, 2012. The Scholarship winner will be invited to an awards ceremony with the Foundation Board in early 2013.
As is customary for the Francisco Foundation, the winner is selected on the basis of demonstrated leadership, community service, academic excellence and a love of democracy and freedom. The scholarship will be awarded to a first year student. Applicants are required to submit a typed, double-spaced, 1,100 word essay explaining one of the two following: what freedom and democracy mean to them, or what sort of sacrifices should be made to ensure the safeguarding of freedom and democracy. They essays can be written in English, Spanish or Creole. Along with the essay, applicants must also include their most recent transcript, a current resume, and two letters of recommendation attesting to academic performance, leadership and character.
Completed application packets should be mailed to:
The Francisco Foundation Scholarship
P.O. Box 654714
Miami, FL 33165
Application packets may also be submitted to the financial aid office at any of the College's Campuses.
The $2,500 scholarship was created in honor of Rogelio "Francisco" Gonzalez Corzo who was executed by Fidel Castro's regime in 1961 when he was 28-years old for attempts to subvert the dictatorship. He was the head of the underground anti-Castro resistance effort called "Movement to Recover the Revolution."
"He was also a brilliant student; a man of unparalleled intelligence and charisma," said Miami-Dade County Commissioner, Sen. Javier Souto from District 10, who serves on the Francisco Foundation Board. "He was a student of democracy and human rights whose life was cut way too short by Castro."

Maintained by Jon H.
Site originally by David Winterbottom (user root).
Adds the stdout (standard output) to the beginning of logfile.txt. Change "command" to whatever command you like, such as 'ls' or 'date', etc. It does this by adding the output to a temporary file, then adding the previous contents of logfile.txt to the temp file, then copying the new contents back to the logfile.txt and removing the temp file.
Here's a version that doesn't use find.
This command will disable a guest user logon, this user don't have password to login in the system.
Removes trailing newline; colon becomes record separator and newline becomes field separator, only the first field is ever printed. Replaces empty entries with $PWD. Also prepend relative directories (like ".") with the current directory ($PWD). Can change PWD with env(1) to get tricky in (non-Bourne) scripts.
KDE4 is great, but still a bit buggy, and sometimes plasma requires to be restarted. Instead of quitting it with "killall plasma", which might loose your preferences (widgets, etc.), kquitapp will cleanly quit it. Tip: you can type this in the "Alt+F2" window, and then type "plasma" in Alt+F2 again to restart plasma (be patient though...).
The sample command searches for PHP files replacing tabs with spaces.
-u NONE # don't use vimrc
Instead of
one may pass
retab! 4
for instance.
Look at this http://susepaste.org/69028693 also
Here's the other way of doing it in vim: setting a recursive macro. 'gg' brings you to the top of the buffer, 'qqq' clears the 'q' macro, 'qq' starts recording a macro called 'q', '/^$' moves the cursor to the next empty line, 'dd' deletes the line that the cursor is on, [email protected]' calls the 'q' macro (currently empty because of 'qqq'), and 'q' stops recording the macro. [email protected]' calls the macro.
It will run until it cannot find another blank line, at which point it will throw up an error and cease.
While this is longer than the regex, you can use it without having to move your thoughts from 'vim-mode' to 'regex-mode'.
You can use this command to delete CVS/svn folders on given project.
#Sample Usage:
# git commit -m"Jira #404 - `whatthecommit`"
If you have a directory with many working copies of various subversion projects and you want to update them all at once, this one may be for you.
This awk command prints a histogram of the number of times 'emergency' is the first word in a line, per day, in an irssi (IRC client) log file.
You should install qpdf.
That way, you can have a copy without any password required.
cn stands for "Cat Null"
The idea is that sometimes you run across something on maybe a webpage - like commandlinefu - that you want to try out on your terminal. You could put a '#' in and then paste it, but what if it is several lines?
This command will echo the pasted characters to the screen and divert them to the bit bucket.
Put this simple alias in your .bashrc, hit cn, paste away, and hit a ctrl+c or a ctrl+d when you are done to get your prompt back.
Finds the line number matching the regex, then passes that to BC for some math, passes that to head, and uses tail to trim off the unwanted section at the top. The whole thing is spit out to a script that can then be shared or run. Comes in handy for reading select sections from error logs.

The 17-year old Kaory caused controversy on Twitter in her native Brazil by claiming that her father could have kept the belt he held for seven years and nine months had he really wanted to.
"He will always be a champion. He has already showed to the world that nobody can beat him if he doesn't want it," she wrote.
"I never liked the ideal of my father being a fighter and now that I know he is tired of it I will give him all my support."
Kaory went on with straight talk. For her the UFC only aims for profit and the organization no longer treats the sport as it deserves.
"The world has changed," she writes. "[They] don't give the same respect to the martial arts like they used to."
Responding to a Brazilian reporter who told he that the UFC had been responsible for the lifestyle she enjoys, Kaory disagreed.
"It was thanks to my father that my life changed, it was thanks to his talent that our life changed, it was thanks to his adversaries that my life changed and not because of the UFC," she wrote.
"It was because people valued my father's work that my life changed, not because of UFC."

I purchased the 2 x 3 in plum for my small kitchen. The color is beautiful, deeper and richer than the online photo but exactly the color I was looking for. The rug itself is thick, comfortable to stand on and the weave of the rug is tight. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Gerald McReary
this wiki
- "All we've ever been is bitches, working for guineas, working for niggers, any asshole with a buck! The whole lot spent in the proper manner, of course, wine and women as quick as possible, and remain a slave forever!"
- — Gerald McReary
Gerald "Gerry" McReary (Irish: Gearalt Mac Ruairí) (inmate number 7142858) is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series who appears as a main character in Grand Theft Auto IV.
Gerry is the third oldest member of the McReary clan. Gerry was the leader of the Irish Mob, until he got arrested.
Gerry McReary was voiced by PJ Sosko, who also provides his voice to Red Dead Redemption, another Rockstar game, as Walton Lowe, an outlaw and a minor antagonist.
Gerry was born in 1973 as the third son of Maureen McReary and Mr. McReary, as well the younger brother of Derrick and Francis, Gerry's younger sibilings, Packie and Kate, were born in the next few years.
Gerry was always involved in family conflicts, with his older brothers. He was also beaten by his father. In 2000, Gerry's father commited suicide. Gerry than became the leader, as Derrick left for Ireland, and Francis became a police officer.
Gerry made an alliance with the Pegorino crime family Capo Ray Boccino, who used them to weaken the Ancelotti crime family.
Events of GTA IV
The Bank Heist
- "...and you. Nothing personal, but don't fuck with my family, or I will fuck with your's."
- ―Gerry threatens Niko
When Niko first meets Gerry, he is heavily inebriated, making him very capricious. He belittles his brothers and Michael Keane, a friend of the family. Immediately after, he warns Niko to never hurt his family, or he will hurt Niko's.
Jobs against the Ancelottis
Later after that mission he calls Niko saying he has work. Niko comes over to visit a now sober (and less hostile) Gerry. His first mission, Actions Speak Louder than Words involve Niko placing a Car Bomb on Anthony Spoleto's car then blowing it up when he reaches a meeting between him and the Albanians. He then has Niko dress up with the clothes of an Albanian he got on ice than, wearing that outfit, assassinate Frankie Garone in the mission I Need Your Clothes, Your Boots, and Your Motorcycle; the goal of these two missions are to damage the Ancelotti-Albanian relationship.
Imprisonment and Ancelotti's Daughter's Kidnapping
Sometime before the events of Derrick or Francis McReary's funeral after Blood Brothers, Gerry is arrested for Racketeering offences and imprisoned in the Alderney State Correctional Facility. After the events of Undertaker, he has Niko come to the facility to tell him to set up and kidnap Gracie Ancelotti in the mission I'll Take Her... in order retrieve the Diamonds, which were stolen by Luis Lopez, in the TBOGT mission Not so Fast, after breaking up the museum deal. (he then needs to snap a picture of her with his Whiz phone in the Ransom mission.) Afterwards, in the mission She's a Keeper, he has Niko move Gracie from one safehouse to another because the Ancelotti's found her.
Last Mission
Then, he gives Niko his final mission; Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend. This mission has Niko Bellic and Packie McReary trade the Gracie for the Diamonds held by Luis Lopez and Anthony Prince. At the exchange, Gracie is successfully returned; unfortunately, Ray Bulgarin and his men interrupt the deal. Luis, Tony and Gracie escape the scene and the guy who chased him. Unfortunately, one of his men stole the Diamonds; when Niko and Packie cornered him after taking out the others, he threw the Diamonds in a truck; Packie and Niko eliminated him and the remainders, thus closing Gerald McReary's role in the story. Gerald remained in prison, bidding farewell to Niko stating he will be in prison for a long time.
Gerry's final mission is played from Luis's point of view in the TBoGT mission Ladies Half Price, whilst the events of She's a Keeper took place shortly after the events of the TBoGT mission Ladies Night.

- Often seen with Pegorino Capo, Ray Boccino.
- Gerald is one of only two characters whose fates are left with prison. The other being Elizabeta Torres.
- Gerald, Jon Gravelli, Elizabeta Torres and United Liberty Paper contact are the only major characters in GTA IV who don't appear outside of cutscenes.
- Gerald is the first character in the whole Grand Theft Auto series to use the word "niggers" as a derogatory term. It is used numerous times in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas however, but is only used as slang between friends.
- Similarly to Ray Boccino, Gerald towers over Niko when standing next to him as seen in the picture above. In his police mugshot, he is shown to be exactly 6 feet tall, however this is inaccurate as every character is shown to have the same height in mugshots. It is possible that Gerry and Ray are at least 6'2.
- It is unknown what happened to him in the attack of the prison on the final mission of The Lost And Damned.
- It is possible he escaped or was killed.
