Solving sudoku is a fun and challenging puzzle that can be solved using various methods, including recursion and backtracking. In this article, we will explore how to solve these puzzles using Python programming language.
Check SSH client configuration (permissions and file types) using customizable Python utility.
Display addresses assigned to network interfaces using Python script.
Check if network subnets are overlapping each other.
Create a software watchdog for systemd service.
Parse Trello export JSON file using Python script to create Markdown files and import these into Joplin an open-source note-taking app.
Use ZooKeeper to elect the leader and share data with a Python script.
Use ZooKeeper to lock resources with a Python script.

Monitor PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) pool using curl utility, cgi-fcgi application or slightly modified Python script that was used to display PHP-FPM pool information.
Display PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) pool information using UNIX socket and Python script. I thought it would be easy to write a simple FCGI client. Apparently not, but it was an exciting and rewarding experience.
Store LeaseWeb data traffic in OpenTSDB time series database using Python script, LeaseWeb API v2 and Python client to OpenTSDB.
LeaseWeb released a new version of API that will deprecate the old one, so it is the perfect time to update the Python script using v1 api and switch to API v2 before May 31.
Debian Wheezy provides an ancient version of pip utility for installing Python packages. To put it very simply, it does not work anymore as it is not using HTTPS protocol, but fortunately this issue can be quickly fixed.
LeaseWeb provides an API that can be used to request information about servers and perform some maintenance tasks like update reverse DNS entries, null route IP addresses, reboot specific server or launch rescue/reinstallation process. I will show you how to request and display identifiable information about servers in each location including data traffic details.
Use Python script to verify that client can connect to the RabbitMQ message broker.
A long time ago, I wrote several blog posts which related to Ubiquiti devices, especially monitoring using Cacti rrdtool-based graphing solution. These are probably obsolete now, but someone has pursued this idea further…
After a longer period of time, I have decided to install Kolab and use it as a personal information manager. The installation process went as expected until the setup process tried to install the Roundcube database and failed miserably.
