So earlier this week ProgClub’s website traffic mysteriously doubled. It seems to be holding out at this new rate, too.

Using grep (not sed) to grab IP addresses from Apache web logs
Today I ran the following command to see how many people accessed the ProgClub wiki over the previous 5 hours:
jj5@charity:/var/log/apache2$ grep "GET /wiki/" access.log |
grep "13/Jul/2013:0" | grep -Eo '^([0-9]{1,3}\.){3}[0-9]{1,3}' | sort | uniq | wc
ab – Apache HTTP server benchmarking tool for apache stress test
Read an article ab – Apache HTTP server benchmarking tool for apache stress test about the ‘ab’ command which can be used to stress test a website.
I used it and figured out that my webserver could handle about 100 requests per second.
The command I used was:
# ab -c 100 -t 10 -r http://www.example.org/test.php

Learned about a web design website today called A List Apart. It seems to have some interesting content centered on web design.
Web browser access keys
Reading about Access Keys. Also a good article on Wikipedia.
For Firefox on Linux use: Alt + Shift.
Mailman 3.0 and Postfix Virtual Domains
Read the spec for Mailman 3.0. Looks like it will be pretty good. The feature that I’m interested in, and I’m annoyed I can’t do this with my current version of Mailman, is to be able to put a link to the web archived message in the bottom of the outgoing SMTP message. I.e. so there’s a link back to that message on the web in the message itself. Would be really handy for referencing. At the moment if I want a link I have to go to the web archive for the particular list and find it.
While I was reading the Mailman 3.0 spec I noticed a link to Postfix Virtual Domain Hosting Howto. I think I might have read (at least some of) that before. But… reading that is now definitely on my TODO list.
