I’m thinking of buying one Axis M1011 Network Camera so I can watch in realtime at work how my little son and girlfriend are doing when dad is away. The price is ok (1633 sek, the cheapest I’ve found) but it doesn’t come with any microphone, but I don’t think I’ll be able to listen that much at work anyway. Now I just need to convince my girlfriend that we really need a network camera and that’s easier said than done!
Today I spent the day building a firewall that we will use for our new honeypot. On this firewall I’ve set up 6 vlans going from 101-106 and they will be going out on one nic as trunk. The reason for having vlans in the first place is that we don’t want one whole honeypot infected with the same type of zombies, this way they can’t infect eachother. Setting up vlans on a Debian is really easy as it comes with all the tools needed, like the vlan package and the way it handles interfaces. I’ll show you how it’s done here.

I made a little program called ipf-blacklist that grabs the blacklists from Wizcrafts and parses the IP nets into my ipf.rules file and then reloads the firewall. The blacklists from Wizcraft contains well known ip nets with spammers, scammers and hackers. Since the lists gets updated every now and then I can now just add this program to crontab and know that I have the recent lists active and up to date.

I wrote a little script today to assist me when upgrading my jails on my FreeBSD box. Remember that you need to have done the usual build world and build kernel before running this to get the new changes into your jails. I never have my jails running while updating them, so blame yourself if you screw something up. It’s nothing fancy though, but I use it without trouble.
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
JAILS=/home/jails
cd /usr/src
for jail in `ls ${JAILS}`; do
mergemaster -pD ${JAILS}/${jail}
make installworld DESTDIR=${JAILS}/${jail}
mergemaster -iD ${JAILS}/${jail}
done
