authentication protocols, which are based upon a pair of complementary
numerical "keys". One of the main appeals of RSA and DSA authentication is the
promise of being able to establish connections to remote systems without
supplying a password. In this second article, Daniel introduces ssh-agent (a
private key cache) and keychain, a special bash script designed to make
key-based authentication incredibly convenient and flexible.

Advanced filesystem implementor's guide, Part 8 ¹
With the 2.4 release of Linux come many new filesystem possibilities,
including Reiserfs, XFS, GFS, and others. These filesystems sound cool, but
what exactly can they do, what are they good at, and exactly how do you go
about safely using them in a production Linux environment? Daniel Robbins
answers these questions by showing you how to set up these new advanced
filesystems under Linux 2.4. In this installment, Daniel continues his look
at ext3, a new improved version of ext2 with journaling capabilities. He
reveals all the inside information on ext3, and demonstrates some shockingly
good ext3 data=journal interactive performance numbers.

Dynamic iptables firewalls ¹
Firewalls are good and fun, but what do you do when you need to make rapid,
complex changes to your firewall rules? Easy. Use Daniel Robbins' dynamic
firewall scripts that are demonstrated in this article. You can use these
scripts to increase your network security and responsiveness, and to inspire
your own creative designs.

Sed by example, Part 1 ¹
In this series of articles, Daniel Robbins will show you how to use the very
powerful (but often forgotten) UNIX stream editor, sed. Sed is an ideal tool for
batch-editing files or for creating shell scripts to modify existing files in
powerful ways.
-
Sed by example, Part 2 ¹
Sed is a very powerful and compact text stream editor. In this article, the
second in the series, Daniel shows you how to use sed to perform string
substitution; create larger sed scripts; and use sed's append, insert, and
change line commands.
-
Sed by example, Part 3 ¹
In this conclusion of the sed series, Daniel Robbins gives you a true taste of
the power of sed. After introducing a handful of essential sed scripts, he'll
demonstrate some radical sed scripting by converting a Quicken .QIF file into a
text-readable format. This conversion script is not only functional, it also
serves as en excellent example of sed scripting power.

Awk by example, Part 1 ¹
Awk is a very nice language with a very strange name. In this first article of a
three-part series, Daniel Robbins will quickly get your awk programming skills
up to speed. As the series progresses, more advanced topics will be covered,
culminating with an advanced real-world awk application demo.
-
Awk by example, Part 2 ¹
In this sequel to his previous intro to awk, Daniel Robbins continues to explore
awk, a great language with a strange name. Daniel will show you how to handle
multi-line records, use looping constructs, and create and use awk arrays. By
the end of this article, you'll be well versed in a wide range of awk features,
and you'll be ready to write your own powerful awk scripts.
-
Awk by example, Part 3 ¹
In this conclusion to the awk series, Daniel introduces you to awk's important
string functions, and then shows you how to write a complete
checkbook-balancing program from scratch. Along the way, you'll learn how to
write your own functions and use awk's multidimensional arrays. By the end of
this article, you'll have even more awk experience, allowing you to create more
powerful scripts.

POSIX threads explained, part 1 ¹
POSIX (Portable Operating System Interface) threads are a great way to increase
the responsiveness and performance of your code. In this series, Daniel Robbins
shows you exactly how to use threads in your code. A lot of behind-the-scenes
details are covered, so by the end of this series you'll really be ready to
create your own multithreaded programs.
-
POSIX threads explained, part 2 ¹
POSIX threads are a great way to increase the responsiveness and performance of
your code. In this second article of a three-part series, Daniel Robbins shows
you how to protect the integrity of shared data structures in your threaded code
by using nifty little things called mutexes.
-
POSIX threads explained, part 3 ¹
In this article, the last of a three-part series on POSIX threads, Daniel takes
a good look at how to use condition variables. Condition variables are POSIX
thread structures that allow you to "wake up" threads when certain conditions
are met. You can think of them as a thread-safe form of signalling. Daniel wraps
up the article by using all that you've learned so far to implement a
multi-threaded work crew application.
