A Proposal for Secure Storage of Credit Card Data
We were asked by a company in the retailing/catalog business how they might secure their customer credit card data, and we were surprised not to find any obvious references to this other than what happens if you don't . Clearly this involves cryptography, but the micro problem of "which encryption?" is substantially less difficult than the macro problem of how this change affects how they do business.
Updating Samba-3 with Minimal Pain and User Frustration > Introduction
Upgrading your Samba installation can be a complicated business, but this chapter will make the process as easy as possible, clarifying some of the muddier aspects of Samba migration. It was a little difficult to select an appropriate title for this chapter. From email messages on the Samba mailing lists it is clear that many people consider the updating and upgrading of Samba to be a migration matter.
Early releases of Samba-3 implemented new capability to work concurrently with multiple account backends. This capability was removed beginning with release of Samba 3.0.23. Commencing with Samba 3.0.23 it is possible to work with only one specified passwd backend. The three passdb backends that are fully maintained (actively supported) by the Samba Team are: smbpasswd (being obsoleted), tdbsam (a tdb-based binary file format), and ldapsam (LDAP directory).
Chapter 11. Account Information Databases
WebRTCis definitely a game changing technology and desktop phones may soon be on their way to join VHS players in yesterdayland A while back, I developed an Openfire plugin for Candy (Chats Are Not Yet Dead) which enabled multi-user voice chatting.

Introduction This document details how to configure your Openfire installation to use an external directory such as Open LDAP or Active Directory. Integration with a directory lets users authenticate using their directory username and password. Optionally, you can configure Openfire to load user profile and group information from the directory. Any group in Openfire can be designated as a shared group, which means that you can pre-populate user's rosters using directory groups.
Configuring LDAP
Be your own Certificate Authority (CA)
I declare from the beginning that I am no authority on digital certificates . This document is a summary of all the articles I have read about openssl . It describes in short how to become your own Certificate Authority (CA) and how to create and sign your own certificate requests . Make no mistake, these certificates are good only for personal use or for use in your intranet in order to provide a secure way to login or communicate with your services, so that passwords or other data is not transmitted in the clear. Noone else will or should trust these certificates.
