Registering ASP.NET for IIS Applications

I've recently learned that it's not a bad idea to register ASP.NET with new instances of IIS. This tends to aid in resolving various issues with ASP.NET web extensions. Here's the quick and easy way to get that done.

Open command prompt as Administrator and issue the following:
cd c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0
The last directory 'v4.0' may be different depending on what version is installed. You will want to select the latest version that is available on your system. Now, in that directory, issue the following:
aspnet_regiss -i
You should see the following output:






From there you need to reset IIS by issuing the following:
iisreset
Once that completes you should be good to go.

Facebook and Two-Factor Auth

So in this post, I'm going to go over a quick setup on how to turn of two-factor auth with Facebook. Facebook does some interesting things once you turn on two-factor auth. If you have the app installed on your device, it will push a login code to that device. You can also set this up with SMS and the DUO Mobile app. We'll go over all three here. For a more high-level document on 2-factor auth, see my post HERE . As I've said before, this is not meant to be an in-depth guide, but more of a how-to for those that wouldn't normally think of turning on additional security settings. With that, let's get started: 1) Fist off, log into your Facebook on a computer and go over to the little down arrow in the upper right corner and select Settings. In the settings area, you'll want to select "Security" on the left. 2) In the Security Settings, you'll need to select the Edit button in the "Login Approvals" section. You'll be presented wi...

Replacing rsyslog with syslog-ng on RHEL 6.5

So...I had a piece of monitoring software that didn't play nice with the RHEL default rsyslog for log collection. The software was developed to only work with syslog-ng. I'll be going over the steps that I took, that worked for me, in replacing rsyslog with syslog-ng. I would imagine that these same steps should work for any Linux system similar to RHEL (Fedora, CentOS, etc.). For others (like Debein based distributions), I would need to look into that (coming in a future update to this post). First, remove rsyslog. You will need to keep the dependencies as they will be needed for syslog-ng: sudo rpm -e --nodeps rsyslog Next we will need to add the EPEL repository (more info can be found HERE ): wget http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm sudo rpm -ivh epel-release-6-8.rpm sudo yum repolist That last command will list all the installed repositories. You are simply verifying that the EPEL package has been installed. Now that we fi...

Using Python for GPG/PGP File Encryption - Part 2

Previously we looked at creating keys, importing public and private keys and the overall setup of gnupg with python. This time around, we're going to take a look at file encryption. Overall the file encryption process is fairly general/easy. But it lacks in the area of scaleablilty, ie to start, you'll only be encrypting one file at a time, which can be done outside of Python with ease. The idea of going over everything in Python, is that you can setup a script to encrypt multiple files in a folder (look for that in Part 3). Assumptions; you have python, and python-gnupg installed, and a public key from someone you want to encrypt and send files to imported to your keystore home (see Part 1 for more information here. Let's get started with Python file encryption. Start off by getting into your python shell, and enter the following: >>> import os >>> import gnupg >>> gpg_home = "/path/to/keyfile/.gnupg" >>> gpg = gnupg....
