How-to Display a Debian Server’s RSA Fingerprint
Aug 19th
Need to verify a rsa host fingerprint for a debian server? Have someone connect and run the following command:
ssh-keygen -l -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
-bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long (AKA: Too Many Files)
Feb 21st
find /path/to/directory/ -exec rm {} \;
So apparently that command is magical! Alright, so it’s not magical but it was able to delete over 200,000 spam messages from a users Maildir/ when the rm command failed. “-bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long”, it complained! So asking around I found out about that beauty of a command and how rm can only take a certain amount of arguments before failing.
Nice to know, as my journey of learning more about Debian Linux (and Linux in general) continues.
Image Resizing Using PHP and the GD library
Nov 26th
I’m developing a new system core, can’t really say what it’s about but I’m having some fun doing it. Coding it is interesting, I’m getting to pull out and update some of my php code. Below is some code for image resizing, I use config files to set some default information like directories to save to and max width/height requirements. Also the entire system uses language files so I don’t output the text directly either, except for what I’m going to remove which is the uploaded file information.
Resize JPG images using the GD library and PHP.
function get_image_information($key) {
global $thumbnail_dest, $image_dest, $thumb_max_height, $thumb_max_width, $image_max_height, $image_max_width;
$filename = $_FILES[$key]["name"];
$file_type = $_FILES[$key]["type"];
$file_tmpname = $_FILES[$key]["tmp_name"];
$file_error = $_FILES[$key]["error"];
$file_size = $_FILES[$key]["size"];if($file_error == 0 && $file_size > 0) {
if($file_type == “image/pjpeg” $file_type == “image/jpeg” $file_type == “image/jpg”) {
$image_name = md5(time() . rand(1001,10000)) . “.jpg”;
$thumb_dest = $thumbnail_dest . $image_name;
$image_dest = $image_dest . $image_name;
create_image($file_tmpname, $thumb_max_height, $thumb_max_width, $thumb_dest);
create_image($file_tmpname, $image_max_height, $image_max_width, $image_dest);
return “thumbs/” . $image_name;
} else {
$success .= file_upload_success_1 . $filename . file_upload_success_2 . “
“;
$success .= “We can only accept jpg uploads. Upload Failed.”;
return $success;
}
} else {
if($file_error == 1) {
echo $file_upload_fail_1;
} elseif($file_error == 2) {
echo $file_upload_fail_2;
} elseif($file_error == 3) {
echo $file_upload_fail_3;
} elseif($file_error == 4) {
echo $file_upload_fail_4;
} elseif($file_error == 6) {
echo $file_upload_fail_6;
}
return false;
}
}
function create_image($image, $max_width, $max_height, $dest) {
$image = imagecreatefromjpeg($image);
if ($image === false) {
die (‘Unable to open image’);
}$width = imagesx($image);
$height = imagesy($image);if($width < $max_width && $height < $max_height) {
$new_width = $width;
$new_height = $height;
} else {
$scale = min($max_width/$width, $max_height/$height);
$new_width = floor($scale * $width);
$new_height = floor($scale * $height);
}$image_resized = imagecreatetruecolor($new_width, $new_height);
imagecopyresampled($image_resized, $image, 0, 0, 0, 0, $new_width, $new_height, $width, $height);
imagejpeg($image_resized, $dest, 90);
