Arduino Server/Service Monitor

I’ve successfully written a bash script that runs once every minute. The script detects whether or not my server is online by issuing a simple ping request. Based on results of the ping request(s), the arduino will display a green LED when the server is online or a red LED if the server is offline. I’ve also setup a cron job to execute the script once a minute, giving me up to the minute status of my server. This specific project is not terribly amazing, but the foundation for many more projects to come has laid.

Plesk Hack: Email and FTP Usernames and Passwords

I wrote this simple script for work. This script allows us to gather all the username and password information on the server to let us troubleshoot faster. This is an early version of the script, I plan on added more functionality to improve the speed of troubleshooting. This script was not intended for malicious purposes, please do not use it for such.

Edit: It looks like a few people out there have been publishing my code without attribution.  I really don’t mind if you post my code, but please give me credit.  The one I’ve found didn’t even change the header (with my full name in it) of the script or the “doneskies” at the end.  Have some class and give me proper attribution.

Windows Firewall: How to setup a Port Range

As most of you know, using the Windows Firewall GUI will not allow you to open a range of ports easily. This becomes a nightmare if you need to open up Passive FTP ports (port #’s 60,000 – 65,000).

Quick SSH Tunnel Script

I wrote this script for a friend who needs to get around a work firewall. The script uses Plink to create an SSH tunnel to a server of your choice.

I haven’t added any error handling in it, but I like how it integrates FTP in a batch script. For this script to work, you’ll need at least one server with both FTP and SSH enabled. Make sure to lock down both accounts that you use in the script, and you’ll need to make sure that plink.exe is accessible in the root of the FTP account.

Auto Ban Brute Force Attempts

This script was just handed to me by a friend, every sever with SSH access should have this script installed. This script will automatically ban an IP address that fails to authenticate after 3 attempts. You can change the ban duration with a simple command line option.

La Fonera 2100 USB Power Hack

I’ve been trying to think of ideas to power my Fon without needing a 120vac outlet. Luckily for us, The La Fonera router is powered off of 5V. USB provides 5v. How convenient. My favorite part about this hack, is that it still allows you to power the Fon router with the provided wall adapter, this is just an added option if you don’t have an outlet handy.
