Welcome to the home of Kuls 'Scripts'

Current Scripts available

• Summarizer the Server Administration 'Add-on' for Webalizer
  


• RAQ File Convertor a much improved version of the Cobalt/Sun stripheader.pl script. As well as a hand full of small additional utilities for use with RAQ files.
  


• FAQ a small selection of useful Linux (including Cobalt/Sun RaQ3/4/550) commands.
  


• db.cache (DNS) a script & Sun/Cobalt RaQ3 & RaQ4 that updates the DNS db.cache file to include altered ROOT NameServers!
  


• CPU Temperature Monitor script for Sun/Cobalt RaQ3 & RaQ4 (maybe others too? [raq550?]), that can email(or SMS) you should your CPU Temperature pass a set limit - very customisable and extremely effecient/simple script.
  


• DNS Resolving NameServer Checker This simple perl script allows you to check if the Resolving NameServers are actually responding. Useful if your server is using third party NameServers for Resolution - Written because those of us who use(d?) UK2 have extreme issues with repeated lack of availability of the UK2 provided NameServers.
  

Scripts soon to be available

(when i get some time to tidy them all up that is)

• 'Dioscuri' - DNS Zone verification system. Currently it scans a list of domain names and independently discovers what the Domain's NameServers should be (Whois type affair), then goes to each of these NameServers and requests the Zone from them (without recursion), and compares these Zones obtained from all NameServers (2-13) highlighting any inconsistencies etc. Essentially this is a Diagnosing DNS Fault Finding Tool for those that run DNS on the Server this is installed on. It takes much of the 'donkey' work out of your hands.
  


• KDRegRem - Kuls' Domain Name Registration Reminder system.
  Simply put this system logs into a number of third party domain registration / renewal systems and collates a list of all your domain names and their registration and renewal dates, and displays these in single system. Making it far easier to keep track of when domains are due for renewal, and which registrar these domains are held out, or even which account you have used (for those that use multiple accounts at the same registrar).
  


• CHKRootKit - A 'small' Bash script that wraps around the very useful ChkRootKit, and runs it at regular intervals, but ensuring it has collected the latest version before compiling and running. This script also goes to great lengths to minimise downloading already current versions of CHKRootKit - to save you bandwidth and more importantly to not over 'over' use the free resource provided so kindly by the Authors and Mirror's of ChkRootKit.
  Where this Script differs from a simple or even sophisticated mirror manager is that it produces extremely short reports by holding the last saved record on file and comparing the current run to it. And alerting you if anything differs.
  


• RaQ3 & RaQ4 specific 'simple' backup solution to backup all sites and mysql and any extra customisable files / directories to an external server via simple FTP.
