Work Around on QVCS SpamAssassin

This is my workaround... im not good in scripting though.....

First, i make a script that will first call Spamassassin before my
mailserver antivirus


*************************************************************************

#!/bin/sh

#file:/var/qmail/bin/spam-script

/usr/local/bin/spamc -f | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl

**************************************************************************

_____________________________________________________________________________


to make it executable

#chmod +x /var/qmail/bin/spam-script*
______________________________________________________________________________

change the ownership to qscand

#chown qscand:qscand spam-script

______________________________________________________________________________

edit the /etc/hosts.allow

tcp-env: ALL: setenv QMAILQUEUE /var/qmail/bin/spam-script

_____________________________________________________________________________

Edit the */var/spool/qmailscan/quarantine-attachments.txt* and add

*SPAM.* Virus-Subject: Spam detected by SA

to quarantine the suspected SPAMS

2 Exams on Saturday

I will take 2 module exam on Saturday. Module 1 will be on Network Address Translatio(NAT) and DHCP. Module 2 will be on WAN Technologies. There will be a Pasay City day on Friday, so i will have enough time to review and answer our Review 3 assignment.
The Palawan office and Head Office is pressured on the test of the VPN connection. We will be using VPN for the connection of the VOIP box on both office. Its hard to teach Linux on the MIS of our Palawan office using Yahoo Messenger.

IPCOP 1.4.10

i've just updated our firewall using IPCOP... so far the most exciting part of the update was the scheduled reboot of the box, which in version 1.4.9, i have to reboot it manually because of the 100% usage of the SWAP memory... i've also upgrade its 256mb memory to 512mb.....

Absent in my CCNA class

Our Radio link in one of our offices still fucked up. Have to skip my CCNA class and troubleshoot the problem with our vendor.
Hopefully we can finish the modules for the Semester 4 of the Cisco Networking Academy and take up the CCNA certification exam next year. Kinda crammed now.... everynight i have to browse all my books and notes, and review all the Cisco Router's command....
After the CCNA if i have the budget, i'm planning to take the Total Linux of Bluepoint.. Cost for about 40k+ but its worth it....

Microsoft SQL, Visual Studio and Biztalk Launch

I've attended the Microsoft SQL 2005, Visual Studio 2005 and Biztalk 2006 launch. The venue is crowded with developers and IT afficionados. The conference kit includes a demo version of SQL and Visual Studio which i handed to our System Developer. The event was in to heat when Geneva Cruz do her number.
I have to cut my seminar and went back to the office because of the problem on our WAN link. Better luck next time on the Xbox 360.

Worm.Sober.U

My email server blocks a huge number of Worm.Sober.U infected emails. Im also receiving spoof email of the postmaster of my domain that's been sending viruses on the net. Good thing that im using Clamav Antivirus on my server.

Penoycentral Already Used

Someone used my internet screen name Penoycentral on blogspot.... so i have to use a different URL and username for my Penoy's Tech Corner. This blog is intended for my documentation on System Administration and Network Administration for my future reference. Hope this blog will also be a good use to you.
