		<title>Redirect wget output to screen (STDOUT)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[wget is a great tool for grabbing web pages from the command line, but one issue is it downloads the file and saves to the local directory.  Some times you just want to see the output of what is retrieved.  To do this, use the following command: wget -qO- http://www.mywebsite.com/file.htm]]></description>

		<title>Grepping in a Windows World</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lately I&#8217;ve been doing more work on Windows platforms and I&#8217;ve been missing the Linux command line.  I&#8217;m a huge user of cat, sed, awk and most of all grep. I&#8217;m also a huge bash script writer to help with everyday issues.  Recently I started playing around with Windows PowerShell and so I&#8217;ll be starting [...]]]></description>

		<title>What me, reboot?  Never</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I came across an excellent article the other day which talks about server rebooting.  I&#8217;ve followed the same practice for many years.  There are very few cases where you should reboot a server.  From experience I&#8217;ve actually seen server end up in a worse state because the server was rebooted.  Lesson, it&#8217;s always better to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Leatherman: Don&#8217;t leave home without it</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You&#8217;ve probably heard the Amex commercial where they say &#8220;Don&#8217;t leave home without it&#8221;.  Well, as a systems/network admin there are many tools that we use in our trade.  But over the years I&#8217;ve found that you should always carry a good multi-tool.  I&#8217;ve gone through 50 or 60 different ones, but recently (a couple [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fun with WIFI</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Do you have people that connect to your WIFI without your permission?  This here&#8217;s a great hack to have a little fun with those people.  If someone connects that&#8217;s unauthorized, the first hack turns all their images upside-down.  The second hack makes all the images blurry.

		<title>Find out what version of Ubuntu</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve recently had to start using Ubuntu, I&#8217;m normally a RedHat/Fedora/CentOS guy.  I&#8217;ve been using RedHat or derivatives since 1995,  and while I&#8217;ve played a bit with other distro&#8217;s, I really dislike any of the Debian derivatives.  Anyway, I&#8217;ve been needing to do an audit of a bunch of linux servers and find out what [...]]]></description>
