First of all I will only talk about open sources solutions. I don’t want to take part of any commercial one. In addition, I will focus on only 4 solutions which seem to me the most used at this time. I will also talk about my history, my level on each one and why I recommend or not that solution. Puppet is in my opinion the most known solution. Because of the marketing they were/are doing, because it was a good alternative compared to the old cfengine.

I recently saw a blog post (don’t remember the link :-() on something I used several times but never made an article on. So this time, I’m making a blog post on it as this is solution is very useful. I’m pretty sure you already had to tcpdump on a remote server to investigate. When you have a lot of traffic, it can start to be painful to add a lot filter, having no colors, reading tcpdump row format etc… And most of the time Wireshark can help on having a better visibility on what happens.

I’m currently developing a complete packaging stack based on Docker to easily make different kind of packages for several Linux distributions. This for MySecureShell project. This stack will be used to build packages in destination of upstream Linux distribution packages. But I’d like to provide a simpler and faster way to create custom repositories mainly for Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS and Fedora. In addition if packages could be automatically created when a new tag is pushed to the GitHub account, it would be perfect.

You may know that I’m one of the 2 founders of MySecureShell. Around 6 years ago, we made a quick try to send MySecureShell to Debian and didn’t make enough efforts to make it possible. This time I worked hard to make this happen. Thanks a lot to GonĂ©ri Le bouder, a colleague and Debian dev to make it possible and helped me to do it fast, before Jessie freeze.
