HOWTO: Uninstall CPANEL over SSH

The following is just a quick reference of some of the commands I used to successfully uninstall cpanel. This is for advanced users of the shell. If you aren't that advanced and you run a single one of these commands without fully understanding it, you will probably kill your server, probably lose everything on it permanently, probably not have a website or email for weeks.. So backup all your data FIRST. Also, if you aren't 100% sure you won't run into problems, you should contact your hosts technical support - but be prepared for some MAJOR negativity.. cpanel makes things very easy for hosts, you are just a drop in their bucket.

Wow!

You sure gotta bigger set that *I* do. . . . - for real! I've been known to do some abysmally stupid things in my day - and actually had them work the way I wanted them to! - but this takes the titanium, gadolinium, rhodium alloy cake!

Me, I'd try something like that and find out later that the fire-trucks showed up right after I hit the "Enter" key. It's a REALLY interesting post, and a real eye-opener - especially for someone who is relatively new to the whole web-hosting-service paradigm. I know, no guts, no glory - but THIS is WAY over the top! I'm reading this and thinking "Why not just put a couple of sticks of dynamite under the thing?"

Seriously now, this was an excellent read - and for someone who is just now looking into the whole web-hosting paradigm, it's a real eye-opener. Though I think I'll just tiptoe past this REAL QUIETLY for now. . . . (laughing!)

Firefox Add-ons for Web Developers

Advanced Web Development by AskApache is a Firefox Collection I created since I'm always trying new Addons out and using multiple computers and I wanted a quick and easy way to install my favorite's and keep a running list. Firebug, YSlow, LastPass, and Web Developer are the only ones I always use regularly.

I like the idea of the last.fm but it's not as powerful as the site, which is awesome. Lately listening to Kings of Leon Radio...

Notes from Apache HTTPD Source Code

thought I'd take a break from coding and post about how open-source is such a great tool for finding the best answers to the toughest questions,

/** is the status code informational */
#define ap_is_HTTP_INFO(x)         (((x) >= 100)&&((x) < 200))
/** is the status code OK ?*/

#define ap_is_HTTP_SUCCESS(x)      (((x) >= 200)&&((x) < 300))
/** is the status code a redirect */
#define ap_is_HTTP_REDIRECT(x)     (((x) >= 300)&&((x) < 400))

/** is the status code a error (client or server) */
#define ap_is_HTTP_ERROR(x)        (((x) >= 400)&&((x) < 600))
/** is the status code a client error  */

#define ap_is_HTTP_CLIENT_ERROR(x) (((x) >= 400)&&((x) < 500))
/** is the status code a server error  */
#define ap_is_HTTP_SERVER_ERROR(x) (((x) >= 500)&&((x) < 600))

/** is the status code a (potentially) valid response code?  */
#define ap_is_HTTP_VALID_RESPONSE(x) (((x) >= 100)&&((x) < 600))

Hacking VLAN switched networks

There isn't much vlan info on the net in terms of specifics and I had to learn all about it because I needed to log in to a switch that was on a different vlan. With the help of the Ettercap developers NaGA and ALoR I figured it out.
