27/12/06 - Apologies for the lack of recent updates. Things have been busy
both at home and at work. The content has been piling up, it's just been a matter
of trying to find the time to publish it all. Anyway, that time has now been found,
and here is a large update....
I wanted a way to parse my BIND zone files and display an expandable/collapsable dynamically generated HTML page detailing A and CNAME records for the zones. Thus, DNS List was born. You can view a demonstration of the script in action too.
Another project, htmltable has also been uploaded. This is a highly configurable shell script that will convert plain ASCII text (command output, for example) into HTML tabular format.
Lastly, five scripts have been added. First, get_rpm_info.sh will take information from rpm -qi output and display the selected fields in the order you specify. skel.sh is a template I use when I'm writing my own Nagios plugins. check_temps.sh can be used on supported SPARC boxes to monitor temperature sensors and alert if they rise above (or fall below) thresholds. fix_makefile.sh will fix Perl Makefiles on Solaris boxes when make fails to compile a module. Lastly, poolgrep.sh is a specialised script to grep through pools on F5 Networks BIGIP load balancers in order to find specific pool members across all pools.
