Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.02.1501182031090.26491@motsugo.ucc.gu.uwa.edu.au>

Hi All,

I've added two screens and two graphics cards to the agenda to upgrade 
Cichlid and Catfish. They currently have a GTX460 and a GTX465 and two 
21.5" samsung screens between them. The screens have pretty bad burn in, 
and the graphics cards are due to be put out to pasture in either 
cockgrunter or a linux machine. Suggested replacements: 24" Dell 16:9 
screens, and two GTX 660 cards. For futher info see the agenda, and mail 
the lists if you can think of something better.

Subject: [tech] I am borrowing the CRO
Message-ID: <54C02A39.8040605@ucc.asn.au>

Hi all,
unless anyone stopped me,
I am going to borrow the CRO (ie the oscilloscope),
tonight, and return it on Tuesday.

I figured I would ask,
incase someone (eg Nick and Bob) wanted to do some long weekend hackery  
that would need it (eg the ARM).

I will also suggest that in the not so distant future we should consider 
getting a new one with a inbuilt signal generator, and a FFT mode.
(UWA now has those -- for the first time in years UWA has better 
equiptment than us.).

Regards

Afternoon All,

I'm very in favour of a new scope, the Tek is very long in the tooth
these days. Rigol's DS1054Z is very much the new hotness in the club's
price range ($400 USD for a 4ch 100MHz scope is basically insane). The
base model adequately covers the clubs required feature set but
doesn't have an inbuilt sig gen. It's not world ending for 99% of the
electronics hacking that members do as it tends to largely be digital.
As far as a bit of kit goes, it has solid reviews all round.

I'd also recommend a standalone logic analyser Saleae's Logic 8 is
worth its price at $210 USD. If we wanted to be stingy, there are
knockoff hardware clones on eBay that their software does work with.
It'd be better to buy real tools and look after them than a knockoff.

Regards,
F.

*.ucc.asn.au was showing up as having an invalid certificate in firefox 
since we updated the certificate.

To fix this, the ssl config in apache needed SSLCertificateChainFile 
updated to reflect the new Cert chain.

See mussel:/etc/apache2/sites-available/default

I've added a note for the next person.

As [MSH] Pointed out, both secure.ucc and member domains needed the 
update applied too.

To avoid having to make a million changes whenever our SSL Cert changes, I 
created ssl-ucc.conf in /etc/apache2/

default, secure and zonemake.py were all updated to refer to this file. 
Now when you update the references to SSL cert files in that file, it will 
apply for all SSL sites that include it, meaning only one file needs to be 
changed.

Remember to restart apache after modifying configs

HSTS might be something to look into. There is also a preload list
https://hstspreload.appspot.com/ (note: this would mean all subdomains
would require SSL) that you can use too.
