Estable OpenSSL-connection using self-signed-certificate.pem and display certificate:
# openssl s_client -showcerts -CAfile self-signed-certificate.pem -connect www.example.com:443
-Also take a look at make-ssl-cert (debconf wrapper for openssl)
+Generate ssl-certificate for use with apache2:
+
+export RANDFILE=/dev/random
+mkdir /etc/apache2/ssl/
+openssl req $@ -new -x509 -days 365 -nodes -out /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem -keyout /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem
+chmod 600 /etc/apache2/ssl/apache.pem

Adjust system for use of qemu with kqemu:
Make sure you have all you need:
-# apt-get update ; apt-get install qemu grml-kerneladdons
+# apt-get update ; apt-get install qemu grml-kerneladdons-$KERNELVERSION
Then set up kqemu:
Usage examples:
-# mptstat -P ALL
+# mpstat -P ALL
# iostat -x 1
# iostat -xtc 5 3
# vmstat 1
Sometimes you have lots of packages .deb that you would like to use APT to
install so that the dependencies would be automatically solved. Solution:
-mkdir ~debs
+mkdir debs
dpkg-scanpackages debs /dev/null | gzip > debs/Packages.gz
echo " deb file:/root debs/" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
dpkg-scansources debs | gzip > debs/Sources.gz
# /usr/share/mplayer/scripts/win32codecs.sh
+or
+
+# /usr/share/mplayer/scripts/binary_codecs.sh install
+
+(depending on the mplayer version you have).

To play encrypted DVDs and if you are living in a country where using
libdvdcss code is not illegal can install Debian package libdvdread3
and use the script /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh.

+Setup Xen within 20 minutes on Debian/grml
+
+Install relevant software und update grub's menu.lst (Xen does not work with
+usual lilo so install grub instead if not done already):
+
+apt-get install linux-image-2.6.18-1-xen-686 xen-hypervisor-3.0.3-1-i386 \
+ xen-utils-3.0.3-1 xen-tools bridge-utils
+update-grub
+
+Example for installation of Debian etch as DomU:
+
+mkdir /mnt/md1/xen
+xen-create-image --debootstrap --dir=/mnt/md1/xen --size=2Gb --memory=512Mb --fs=ext3 \
+ --cache=yes --dist=etch --hostname=xengrml1 --ip 192.168.1.2 --netmask 255.255.255.0 \

+ --kernel=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-1-xen-686 --mirror=http://ftp.at.debian.org/debian/
+
+Start services:
+
+/etc/init.d/xend start
+/etc/init.d/xendomains start
+
+Setup a bridge for network, either manually:
+
+brctl addbr xenintbr
+brctl stp xenintbr off
+brctl sethello xenintbr 0
+brctl setfd xenintbr 0
+ifconfig xenintbr 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
+
+or via /etc/network/interfaces (run ifup xenintbr to bring up the device then
+without rebooting):
+
+auto xenintbr
+iface xenintbr inet static
+ pre-up brctl addbr xenintbr
+ post-down brctl delbr xenintbr
+ address 192.168.1.1
+ netmask 255.255.255.0
+ bridge_fd 0
+ bridge_hello 0
+ bridge_stp off
+
+Setup forwarding (adjust $PUBLIC_IP; for permanet setup use /etc/sysctl.conf and
+add the iptables commands to a startup script like /etc/init.d/rc.local):
+
+echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
+iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j SNAT --to $PUBLIC_IP
+iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j SNAT --to $PUBLIC_IP

+
+List domains, start up a DomU, shutdown later again:

+Use KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine for Linux):
+
+Make sure to install the relevant tools:
+# apt-get update ; apt-get install kvm
+# modprobe kvm
+Test it with a minimal system like ttylinux:
+# wget http://www.minimalinux.org/ttylinux/packages/bootcd-i386-5.3.iso.gz

+Set up and use DVB:
+
+Make sure your device is supported by Linux and running.
+See http://www.linuxtv.org/ for more details.
+
+If the DVB device works on your system (see 'hwinfo --usb'
+when using a DVB usb device for example), then make sure you
+have the scan util from dvb-utils available:
+
+# aptitude install dvb-utils
+
+Then create a channels.conf configuration file:
+
+% scan /usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/... > ~/.mplayer/channels.conf
+
+You can find some example configuration files on
+your grml system in ~/.channels. Usage example:
+
+% ln -s ~/.mplayer/channels.conf-AT-graz ~/.mplayer/channels.conf
+
+Tip: w_scan (see http://free.pages.at/wirbel4vdr/w_scan/index2.html)
+might be useful if you do not know the initial configuration
+details.

+
+Get and build the source:
+% hg clone http://selenic.com/repo/hg mercurial
+% cd mercurial
+% make local
+% export PYTHONPATH=$(pwd)
+% export PATH=$PATH:$(pwd)
+
+now you should have the newest version of mercurial whenever you execute hg.
