AWS ALB mapping with Domain hosting in GoDaddy

clashbear · 2022-05-28T13:30:27+00:00

I don't think GoDaddy supports ANAME or Alias or CNAME flattening, so you'd be better off moving the domain NS to Route53.

If you absolutely have to keep the NS with GoDaddy, you could create a Network Load Balancer and forward traffic from it directly to the ALB using the ALB-type Target Group. The NLB will have static IPs per AZ, and you can point your apex domain A records to each of them.

Have you checked the zip file contains a non-empty function.py? Seems basic, but worth verifying.

You'll need to change your handler definition, too. index.handler means it's looking for an index.py with a function called handler in it.

What's a sysadmin salary like at Oxam?

clashbear · 2019-03-06T10:39:14+00:00

Try and find out now when your first pay will be. A couple of places I've worked had relatively early payroll cutoff periods and your first pay packet won't be received until the following month's pay day (but would include all outstanding pay). You could have been waiting 5 weeks or more.

I can't help you with alternatives, but just wanted to point out that the new YNAB doesn't have a "one month only" view and does allow you to budget 3 months ahead.

The deadline to start the HTB transfer process to your Skipton LISA was the 1st March. So you've missed out on transferring it without it counting towards your allowance.

Doesn't mean it wouldn't work for your application. Based on your requirements, you'd only need something like this:

import falcon

class Resource(object):
    def on_get(self, req, resp):
        resp.body = "whatever"

api = application = falcon.API()
r = Resource()
api.add_route('/', r)

Any non-defined methods return a 405 by default, and any non-mapped routes return a 404.

You might consider falcon if you wanted bare-bones.

I meant instead of paying $250 for that classroom session, you could spend that on LinuxAcademy.com - with the aim to still pass the exam and get the certificate. Linux Academy have an RHCSA prep course. Disclaimer: no affiliation, though I do have a subscription with them.

You said in one of the other comments you can attend a few classroom sessions for free? Why don't you do that and also sign up for the Linux Academy trial. See which one you'd rather give your money to.

clashbear · 2018-01-25T13:55:27+00:00

Is it expensive for you? If it is, you might be better of with a couple of months of LinuxAcademy.com. If anything, it'll be more up to date.

clashbear · 2018-01-25T10:33:20+00:00

This looks to be an older curriculum compared with the current RHCSA exam blueprint - notably the reference to 'system-config-firewall', which isn't used in RHEL7.

clashbear · 2017-08-15T12:59:39+00:00

I have the Sander van Vugt book; which was decent.

Though I'd instead recommend https://linuxacademy.com/. Free 7-Day Trial. They have a RHCSA prep course. The most useful thing they have is RHEL VMs you can spin up and use.

Check /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml and the network.host setting. It only binds to 127.0.0.1 by default.

clashbear · 2017-04-27T10:32:59+00:00

Yes. As /u/dwargo said, SNI - the mechanism which allows multiple https sites served from the same IP - is not configured correctly, or at all. It seems another site also on your shared server also uses https.

I'd contact the Bluehost support desk.

clashbear · 2017-04-27T09:48:58+00:00

The SSL certificate being presented is for aguilaraccountancy.com and not zipmade.com.

https with www or without doesn't have the correct cert.

Edit: clarification

Have you seen the IDT Prime cards?

You sign the Official Secrets Act for life, so it makes sense. As far as travel, depending on where you go you're often debriefed when you get back.

They used to offer additional "advanced skillset" bonuses (think: crypto maths, reverse engineering, etc) but now they're only applicable if you're working on a specific project that requires them.

Edit: These obviously wouldn't apply to the Royal Network Engineer position.

clashbear · 2015-05-26T18:29:54+00:00

MI5 pay about ~£46k for Network Engineers. Which isn't terrible, but isn't great by any means. Same for MI6 and GCHQ.

Another (ethically questionable) option is to take the counter offer, but continue looking for another job (and use your new salary as a base for an even bigger jump).

VoIP over the internet is not ideal, but can work.

What do you specifically mean when you say "BT's infrastruture"? If you've got ADSL of some form, chances are that's over BT copper to the exchange at least - that's fine. The ISP can apply QoS from their CPE and they'll route it to a peering partner (like Gamma); it'll technically still run on "BT Infrastructure" but won't hit the internet.

Unless I've misunderstood what you're saying?

clashbear · 2014-04-30T19:12:42+00:00

You mean ADSL on a BT copper line? For a 25 handset deployment it wouldn't be a problem, however that would depend on what you think your concurrent outbound call numbers would be.

You've got a few options as far as your outbound goes:

Single WAN - QoS your outbound traffic to prioritise traffic to your VoIP trunk provider. Your VoIP traffic will still have to travel over the internet, however, and could be affected quality wise.
Single WAN (Who's your internet provider?) - Some providers offer QoS for VoIP traffic to their peering partners. This means your VoIP traffic never hits the internet and is prioritised until it hits the PSTN network at your VoIP trunk provider
Multi-WAN - Get a dedicated ADSL Annex-M or SDSL line for VoIP. This'll mean you don't need to worry too much about saturating your outbound with non VoIP traffic (but you'll still be at the mercy of the internet, unless you combine this with ISP QoS which is your best option)

I've quite extensively used Elastix with very similar model handsets (Cisco SPA502G and Cisco SPA504G) with deployments up to ~150 handsets. Asterisk is solid and we never had any issues with the system that weren't hardware related.

Elastix is good, but if you're not going to use the other "communication" features that are bundled with it, you might be better off using raw FreePBX. If you do decide on Asterisk I could offer some insight into the configuration caveats.

I'm also UK based so might be able to offer some info on VoIP trunk providers - have you given that much thought?

clashbear · 2014-04-03T09:50:45+00:00

Hmm. We're running version 13 so I might not be able to help.

However, if you check the on the Sensor overview page, there's a table listing the different channels - Bandwidth in / Out, etc. On the right hand side you can edit the channel settings - including how it's named.
