ESX 3.0 Beta Test dates closing in!



16th Feb we can get started with the ESX 3.0 Beta Testing. I got a 3rd reminder email and I'm very curious to get my hands on ESX 3.0!

What I have not been able to fix is a couple of fast Boxes where I can do my Oracle RAC installation on RHEL 4.0 or Windows 2003 or Solaris 9/10 for that matter. I do have a multiple CPU box but the specs are a bit old. I will definitely be able to test and run this ESX 3.0 on it. No problems there at all , its just the performance testing that might be a problem.

Anyways anyone who has lots of resources (think new servers which are lying around, waiting for to be deployed) to spare (who doesn't?) can always give me a call. I could help you set it up and do some real good performance testing. :-)

Security: VMware Workstation 6 vulnerability

vulnerable software: VMware Workstation 6.0 for Windows, possible some other VMware products as well type of vulnerability: DoS, potential privilege escalation I found a vulnerability in VMware Workstation 6.0 which allows an unprivileged user in the host OS to crash the system and potentially run arbitrary code with kernel privileges. The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS. When sending the IOCTL code FsSetVoleInformation with subcode FsSetFileInformation with a large buffer and underreporting its size to at max 1024 bytes, it will underrun and potentially execute arbitrary code.

Splunk that!

Saw this advert on Slashdot and went on to look for it and found the tour pretty neat to look at. Check out the demo too! So why would I need it? WHY NOT? I'd say. As an organization grows , new services, new data comes by, new logs start accumulating on the servers and it becomes increasingly difficult to look at all those logs, leave alone that you'd have time to read them and who cares about analysis as the time to look for those log files already makes your day, isn't it? Well a solution like this is a cool option to have your sysadmins/operators look at ONE PLACE and thus you don't have your administrators lurking around in your physical servers and *accidentally* messing up things there. Go ahead and give it a shot by downloading it and testing it. I'll give it a shot myself! Ok so I went ahead and installed it. Do this... [root@tarrydev Software]# ./splunk-Server-1.0.1-linux-installer.bin to install and this (if you screw up) [root@tarrydev Software]# /op
