  • 1 Where to Start
    Where to Start Where to Start 1 Where to Start An awful lot of UNIX and Linux information is available these days, so we’ve de- signed this book to occupy a specific niche in the ecosystem of man pages, blogs, magazines, books, and other reference materials that address the needs of system administrators. First, it’s an orientation guide. It reviews the major administrative systems, identi- fies the different pieces of each, and explains how they work together. In the many cases where you must choose between various implementations of a concept, we describe the advantages and drawbacks of the major players. Second, it’s a quick-reference handbook that summarizes what you need to know to perform common tasks on a variety of common UNIX and Linux systems. For example, the ps command, which shows the status of running processes, supports more than 80 command-line options on Linux systems. But a few combinations of options satisfy 99% of a system administrator’s needs; see them on page 130. Finally, this book focuses on the administration of enterprise servers and net- works. That is, serious system administration. It’s easy to set up a single desktop system; harder to keep a virtualized network running smoothly in the face of load spikes, disk failures, and intentional attacks. We describe techniques and rules of 3 4 Chapter 1 Where to Start thumb that help networks recover from adversity, and we help you choose solu- tions that scale as your site grows in size, complexity, and heterogeneity. We don’t claim to do all of this with perfect objectivity, but we think we’ve made our biases fairly clear throughout the text.

  • Wireshark User's Guide: Version 3.5.1
    Wireshark User’s Guide Version 3.5.1 Richard Sharpe, Ed Warnicke, Ulf Lamping Preface Foreword Wireshark is the world’s foremost network protocol analyzer, but the rich feature set can be daunting for the unfamiliar. This document is part of an effort by the Wireshark team to improve Wireshark’s usability. We hope that you find it useful and look forward to your comments. Who should read this document? The intended audience of this book is anyone using Wireshark. This book explains all of the basic and some advanced features of Wireshark. As Wireshark has become a very complex program, not every feature may be explained in this book. This book is not intended to explain network sniffing in general and it will not provide details about specific network protocols. A lot of useful information regarding these topics can be found at the Wireshark Wiki at https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/wikis/. By reading this book, you will learn how to install Wireshark, how to use the basic elements of the graphical user interface (such as the menu) and what’s behind some of the advanced features that are not always obvious at first sight. It will hopefully guide you around some common problems that frequently appear for new (and sometimes even advanced) Wireshark users. Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank the whole Wireshark team for their assistance. In particular, the authors would like to thank: • Gerald Combs, for initiating the Wireshark project and funding to do this documentation. • Guy Harris, for many helpful hints and a great deal of patience in reviewing this document.

    All For One Port, One Port For All Bram Moolenaar Stichting NLnet Labs <[email protected]> The ports system provides a convenient way to install an application from source code. With just a few commands the files for the latest version are downloaded, build and installed. A port specifies patches that need to be applied, allows tweaking features and handles dependencies on other components. These useful features of the ports system have increased the popularity of BSD distributions. Each BSD distribution has their own ports system. Although they all originate from the same root, incompatible features have been added. This requires a port to be done and maintained for each system separately. Since there are thousands of ports, the amount of duplicated work is significant. Attempts to reunite the ports systems have failed so far. Examining the reasons for this makes clear that the chances for each BSD system to drop their own solution and use a common ports system are very small. The development of solutions that replace the existing ports systems have stalled. A possible solution is introducing a new system that exists side by side with the traditional ports system. This allows a gradual shift, moving ports to the new system one by one. Since the ports files of new system do not need to be backward compatible, there is a lot of freedom to make choices for a better and more powerful implementation. The goal that it must co-exist with the traditional ports systems makes sure it avoids the pitfalls that stopped previous reuniting attempts from being successful.
