dhcpd.conf – nicer formatting

Keeping an eye on all those entries in a DHCP servers configuration file is a bit tedious. On the other hand, it’s not worrisome enough to use any graphical interface to edit it. One thing I dislike most is the typical format of each entry, that is

host devicename {
      hardware ethernet 12:34:56:78:90:ab;
      fixed-address 123.124.234.127;
  }

I prefer a clean, sorted list, like:

host devicename  {hardware ethernet 12:34:56:78:90:ab;   fixed-address 123.124.234.127; }
host devicename2 {hardware ethernet 12:34:56:78:90:ac;   fixed-address 123.124.234.128; }

Hence, I wrote a script that reads a typical dhcpd.conf file and

  • Outputs all host lines in single-line format
  • Sorts entries by IP
  • Groups entries by /24 subnet

The source code is available on my github: dhcpdformatter

Mal schnell ein Changeset in Achavi anschauen? Oder einen Key bei Taginfo nachschlagen?
Einfach die Links als Bookmark in der Toolbar speichern, einen Text auf irgendeiner Webseite markieren und den passenden Bookmark aufrufen!

Diese Links sollten in fast jedem aktuellen Browser funktionieren, nur der Internet Explorer könnte Schwierigkeiten machen…

Remote Presenter

Having discussions on presentation slides via phone? Having round-table meetings where everybody wants to show his one own slide? Then you might know some of the following scenarios:

  • „How can I show you the slides“ – „Oh, send them by mail.“ – „Have they arrived yet?“ – „Which slide are you viewing right now?“ – „Page 23 or Slide 23? Or the one labelled ’23‘?“
  • „Could you pass me the VGA cable for the projector?“ – „How do I make this computer show the image?“ – „Maybe I can show my slide first?“ – „Why doesn’t it work with my adapter? Is the projector broken?“

I wrote a tiny tool that can handle these situations – A webpage where you can upload your PDF or images, and everybody connected sees the same slides, can select slides for a ‚private‘ view, select slides to show to everybody else. Works with ‚any‘ web browser, no special tools required on the users‘ end. E.g. open the website on the main presentation PC, and all people in the meeting can control slides using their mobile devices.

As usual, the code can be found on github: https://github.com/mueschel/RemotePresenter. Just 15 kByte of code that might save a lot of time during meetings.

Herbst III

Am 21. September war 2012 in einer eher nördlich gelegenen Universitätsstadt hingegen noch nichts vom Herbst zu spüren. Nur ein wenig Nieselregen zauberte ein Glitzern auf die Steine:
