Hi All,

During Movember (the month formerly known as November) I'm growing a Mo. That's right I'm bringing the Mo back because I'm passionate about tackling men's health issues and being proactive in the fight against men's depression and prostate cancer.

To donate to my Mo you can either:

Click this link https://www.movember.com/nz/donate/donate-details.php?action=sponsorlink&rego=1550521&country=nz and donate online using your credit card
Write a cheque payable to ‘Movember Donations Account', referencing my Registration Number 1550521 and mailing it to:

Movember
PO Box 12 708
Wellington 6144

Remember, all donations over $10 are tax deductible.


The money raised by Movember is used to raise awareness of men's health issues and donated to the Cancer Society of New Zealand and the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand. These two charities will use the money raised to fund research and increase support networks for those affected with prostate cancer and experiencing depression.

Did you know:

Depression affects 1 in 10 men....Most people who experience depression make a full recovery. The first step is seeking help.
* Last year in New Zealand 2,700 men were diagnosed with prostate cancer and more than 600 died of prostate cancer - (that's nearly two each day).
*
For those that have supported Movember in previous years you can be very proud of the impact it has had and can check out the details at: [Fundraising Outcomes].

Movember culminates at the end of month Gala Partés. If you would like to be part of this great night you'll need to purchase a [Gala Parté Ticket].

Thanks for your support David.

Automatically mount NVME volumes in AWS EC2 on Windows with Cloudformation and Powershell Userdata

Introduction This post explains how I go about with AWS Cloudformation and Powershell userdata scripts. attaching EBS volumes to Windows EC2 instances identifying them in the OS initializing them formatting them and assigning labels and drive letters. Prerequisites You should know something about Cloudformation and Powershell. The AWS Image you use for your EC2 instance should be one provided by AWS and should have the following utility already deployed to  C:\ProgramData\Amazon\Tools\ebsnvme-id.exe AWS Cloudformation Step I typically do not declare EBS Volumes together with the EC2 Instance declaration in Cloudformation but prefer to declare them as separate resources along with their own ebs attachment resources.  Here is an example EC2 instance with three additional volume declarations on top of the root volume which is automatically mounted on C:\ WindowsServerInstance: Type: AWS::EC2::Instance Properties: BlockDeviceMappings: - DeviceName: /dev/sda1

Extending the AD Schema on Samba4 - Part 2

Importing LDIF files into Samba4 and Active Directory This is part 2 of the Extending AD Schema on Samba4 series.  The examples below are tested using the Samba4 LAB I created.  If you want more information on how that works then please read  http://david-latham.blogspot.co.nz/2012/12/samba4-ga-release-virtualbox-lab.html For part one, please read http://david-latham.blogspot.co.nz/2012/12/extending-ad-schema-on-samba4.html Unfortunately the format of an ldif file for creating new attributes and classes in the Schema Configuration are differ between Samba4 and Microsoft. The tools are slightly different too.  So this article will attempt to make it all clear. Find all the latest versions of code on this post at  https://github.com/linuxplayground/yubikey-ldap/tree/master/microsoft-schema Samba4 - ldbadd & ldbmodify As far as I can tell the only way to create a new class with a custom attribute in Samba4 (on the Linux command line) is first add the attribute with ldbad

Python + inotify = Pyinotify [ how to watch folders for file activity ]

Sometimes it just might be handy to be able to watch a folder on a hard disk for changes. For example: A client app might drop small files on a shared folder. A server app might be watching the folder for just such an event. Once the file is created, the server will kick into action and perform whatever tasks are required. This all comes from my CD burning application. I am currently thinking that the client apps will drop small xml files containing information about what to burn onto a folder the webserver has access to and the cdburner service will be watching... The linux kernel provides inotify. This from wikipedia : notify is a Linux kernel subsystem that provides file system event notification. It was written by John McCutchan with help from Robert Love and later Amy Griffis to replace dnotify . It was included in the mainline kernel from release 2.6.13 (2005-06-18), and could be compiled into 2.6.12 and possibly earlier releases by use of a patch . Its function is essen
