installing php apc gnulinux centos-5

Complex PHP applications, such as Drupal, can gain a lot of performance benefits from running a PHP op-code cache/accelerators. APC, Alternate PHP Cache, is now the most maintained free/open source op-code cache, and is being used more and more as it emerges to be the most stable. The instructions here detail how to get APC running on a CentOS 5 server. The server happened to have Plesk on it as well, which initially made me hesitant to install APC "normally", since Plesk is so picky on what other software is installed on the server. However, it seems to have worked out well. First, we need the pecl command so we can download and install APC from the repositories. Do to so, we execute the following command: yum install php-pear But, this will not run on its own, we need the following package for the phpize command: yum install php-devel We also need the apxs command, which is installed via the following package: yum install httpd-de...

Top 4 Packet Crafting Tools

Packet crafting is a technique that allows network administrators or hackers to probe firewall rule-sets and find entry points into a targeted system or network. This is done by manually generating packets to test network devices and behaviour, instead of using existing network traffic. Testing may target the firewall, IDS, TCP/IP stack, router or any other component of the network. Packets are usually created by using a packet generator or packet analyzer which allows for specific options and flags to be set on the created packets. The act of packet crafting can be broken into four stages: Packet Assembly, Packet Editing, Packet Play and Packet Decoding. Tools exist for each of the stages - some tools are focussed only on one stage while others such as Ostinato try to encompass all stages .

Top 10 Password Crackers

Password cracking  is the process of recovering passwords from data that has been stored in or transmitted by a computer system. A common approach is to repeatedly try guesses for the password. The purpose of password cracking might be to help a user recover a forgotten password (though installing an entirely new password is less of a security risk, but involves system administration privileges), to gain unauthorized access to a system, or as a preventive measure by system administrators to check for easily crackable passwords. On a file-by-file basis, password cracking is utilized to gain access to digital evidence for which a judge has allowed access but the particular file's access is restricted.

How to Remove Google Text Ads | Gizmo's Freeware

How to Remove Google Text Ads | Gizmo's Freeware It seems that almost every web page you view these days has Google AdSense texts ads spread across the top or down the side. These ads have never bothered me. They are easy enough to ignore and besides, website owners are entitled to earn a living just like the rest of us. However, lately some sites have started embedding the Google ads in the center of the page or worse still, right in the middle of a block of text. So I decided enough was enough and started looking for ways to block the ads.
