The Linux Kernel should also be a Hypervisor…

 | Sunday, 7. March 2010 23:57

As a Linux developer, it’s hard for me to be that interested in Xen…
When you think about it, it is really quite silly. We advocate Linux for
everything from embedded systems to systems requiring real-time
performance, to high-end mainframes. I trust Linux to run on my dvd
player, my laptop, and to run on the servers that manage my 401k.
Is virtualization so much harder than every other problem in the
industry that Linux is somehow incompatible of doing it well on its own?
Of course not.

Connect Amazon EC2 / GoGrid with OpenVPN VPN-Cubed Part 2

 | Tuesday, 23. February 2010 1:08

I try to install the VPN-Cubed into Amazon EC2 and GoGrid

with the following Howto http://www.cohesiveft.com/dnld/VPN-Cubed_051_SSL-to-Cloud_Free-Edition_20091124.pdf

Using the EC2 command line:
  • export EC2_URL=https://us-east-1.ec2.amazonaws.com
  • ec2-add-group vpncubed-mgr -d “vpncubed managers”
  • ec2-add-group vpncubed-client -d “vpncubed clients”
  • ec2auth vpncubed-mgr -P udp -p 1194 -o vpncubed-client -u AWS_ACCOUNT
  • ec2auth vpncubed-mgr -P tcp -p 8000 -o vpncubed-mgr -u AWS_ACCOUNT
  • ec2auth vpncubed-mgr -P udp -p 1195-1197 -o vpncubed-mgr -u AWS_ACCOUNT
  • ec2auth vpncubed-mgr -P tcp -p 8000 -s IP_WHERE_YOU_WILL_MANAGE_CUBE/32
IMPORTANT: This line limits cube access. Use this technique for security of your network.
The /32 means “host only†and is needed in the command.
Now repeat same ec2 commands for EU region:
  • export EC2_URL=https://eu-west-1.ec2.amazonaws.com
  • <ec2 commands from above>
Unset the EC2_URL variable:
  • export EC2_URL=

and after this I don’t see my keypairs anymore !

and also the one from GoGrid but  unfortunately  I was not able to add my own Private Cloud into this connection

I need some more Infos about the VPN Cubed Manager but I can’t find it.

I now wrote a email to Cohesiveft.com, now we will see.

Open Source in the Switzerland Government

 | Tuesday, 26. May 2009 23:49

In the Government Area Switzerland is really not in the Top 10 :-( Maybe that’s also the reason because OpenSource never get the chance !

Red Hat get the Lead to change to challenge Microsoft in this area. I really hope they win with this, and give OpenSource a chance.

Oracle buy SUN

 | Monday, 20. April 2009 23:52

Ups that’s really a suprise.  Because also SUN was a real Open Source Company and Oracle don’t.

I hope they will find a good Solution for a SUN hosted Open Source Project like OpenOffice, MySQL and others.
