China - One of the worst place to work in the world

The price level vs living quality in China is just horrible. In every country, there is space for low to mid income workers, where there are cheap food, public transportation, etc.

In China, these things are just unreliable. When you go out for a soup noodle on the street, you have to worry if the oil they use is healthy, the pork is good, and if the soup is clear. Not only that, when you buy clothes, you have to worry if the dye used is healthy and green.

Chinese Government - A robber and a thief

On May 30, the Chinese government suddenly announced that it will increase stock trade interest by several times at midnight. Formerly when the press is asking the government agents, they all said that they won't raise the rate.

Then tragedy happened as the notorious, untrustworthy, and low government decided to rob all the people of China at midnight ...

After the event took place... most stocks fell at least 40~50% in the consecutive days.

Is there a world government/authority where I can sue the Chinese government for its thievery?

Configuring Apache for Maximum Performance

Apache is an open-source HTTP server implementation. It is the most popular web server on the Internet. The December 2005 Web Server Survey conducted by Netcraft [1] shows that about 70% of the web sites on Internet are using Apache.

1. Apache server performance

Apache server performance can be improved by adding additional hardware resources such as RAM, faster CPU etc. But, most of the time, the same result can be achieved by custom configuration of the server.

Introduction

By now you've got the perfect setup for your new Ubuntu 6.0.6 (Dapper Drake) box. You may have even followed the excellent Intrusion Detection and Prevention with BASE and Snort tutorial. And as an added precaution you installed DenyHosts to prevent hack attempts via ssh.

How To Test Your Linux-Distro Firewall

Recently, I wrote an article about "How to scan your Linux-Distro for Root Kits".
Now that the machine is... clean! I think, a good thing TO-DO, is to test my Firewall (AGAIN!)
The good news are that we can use the free tool FTester.

Securing the CentOS Perfect Setup with Bastille

This article shows how to secure a CentOS server using psad, Bastille, and some other tweaks. psad is a tool that helps detect port scans and other suspicious traffic, and the Bastille hardening program locks down an operating system, proactively configuring the system for increased security and decreasing its susceptibility to compromise.
