• Self-Hosted Alternative to Internet Download Manager (IDM) for HTTP/FTP/SFTP Downloads

  I use PyLoad, it is a neat solution which also allows you to batch download files using a bunch of links among other features. Source: about 1 year ago

• 2022-7-24 TrueCharts catalog charts update

  Pyload-ng - pyLoad(https://pyload.net/) is a Free and Open Source download manager written in Python and designed to be extremely lightweight, easily extensible and fully manageable via web. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Is there a way to (easily) download all the python files from this website?

  If you want to program/learn/adapt a python one, maybe just start with https://pyload.net/. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Multi Link Grabber

  Https://pyload.net/ it may not support as many sites as jdownloader. Source: almost 2 years ago

• You know why they say »don’t use standard ports for services like ssh« and »enable autoban«? Here’s why!

  Two days ago I enabled SFTP access on port 22 for a friend on a remote location to whom I needed to transfer some files but who likes to use pyLoad, so DSM’s simple file share via web link wasn’t an option. Set up port forwarding in the router, everything worked as expected. The next day I wake up to Thunderbird with an inbox of 39 unread mails about blocked IPs through autoban because of failed login attempts. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Cisco switch backup/restore?

  A decade ago I worked for a shop that needed to routinely back up 100+ cisco switches and routers and refused to pay for solarwinds. I setup a light weight freebsd vm to run this open source software: https://shrubbery.net/rancid/ (Rancid: Really Awesome New Cisco config Differ) and set it to scrape all the equipment every 12 errors.

• Version control for network configs

  Anyways Rancid does support cvs, svn, and git. Though I have only used it with cvs. Basically what it does, is checks out the configuration, downloads the configuration with other information about the state of the device, commits the configurations(which only changed ones will be in the latest check-ins, and then it can send an email of the changes.

• Management Software for Cisco Devices?

  RANCID - Really Awesome New Cisco confIg Differ monitors a router's (or more generally a device's) configuration, including software and hardware (cards, serial numbers, etc) and uses CVS (Concurrent Version System), Subversion or Git to maintain history of changes. Source: almost 2 years ago

• What all are you doing with Ansible?

  If you want to use this as an opportunity to learn Ansible, or you don't want to add another tool to the stack, this is a fine use case. Otherwise, I would consider using either RANCID or Oxidized for configuration backup. Source: about 2 years ago

• Starting with python at 30

  Before I knew about RANCiD (https://shrubbery.net/rancid), I wrote my own Perl application to telnet into a Foundry Networks switch and TFTP its configuration to my computer so I could back it up. At a future employer, I rewrote another coworkers Perl application that collected SNMP values from devices and did stuff with it (forget what all I did then). Source: about 2 years ago
