NETWORK CONFIGURATIONS IN LINUX DISTROS

Changing IP Address

Changing the IP address on a Linux system can be done in several ways, depending on whether you want to change it temporarily (for the current session) or permanently (so it persists across reboots). The method you choose will depend on your specific needs and the environment you’re working in.

WHAT CAN INFLUENCE DOMAIN NAME RESOLUTION

What can influence domain name resolution

Domain name resolution can be influenced by various components and mechanisms, and their priorities can differ depending on your network configuration. Here are some key elements that can impact domain name resolution and their general priorities:

GENERATE ROOT CERTIFICATE AND USE IT TO SIGN OTHERS

Generate root certificate and use it to sign other certificates

  1. Generate a Private Key for the Root CA:

Generate a private key that will be used to sign your root CA certificate. Here’s an example command to generate a 2048-bit RSA private key:

LOAD CERTIFICATES IN ASP NET CORE

Generate certificates

  1. Using process described at Sample nginx with a self-signed certificate
  2. Using following command (recommended):
dotnet dev-certs https -ep server.pfx -p PASSWORD

Load certificates in asp.net core application

To convert your server’s certificate and private key files (server.crt and server.key) into a PFX (Personal Information Exchange) format, which is a format that combines both the certificate and the private key into a single file, you can use OpenSSL. Here’s how to do it:

SAMPLE NGINX WITH SELF SIGNED HTTPS PROTOCOL

Sample nginx with a self-signed certificate

Steps on how to generate a self-signed SSL certificate using OpenSSL, install it in a Docker container, and access it using HTTPS protocol and port 5001 in your Windows machine:

IMPROVE CREATIVITY

Improving creativity is a gradual process that requires practice and exposure to various stimuli.

MANUALLY CONFIGURING HTTPS FOR LOCAL DEVELOPMENT

Configuring SSL for Local Development with .NET 6 and HttpListener

When developing web applications on your local machine, it’s essential to simulate as closely as possible the conditions of your live environment. One key part of this is implementing SSL. In this article, we’ll guide you through the process of importing a .pfx certificate into the Microsoft Management Console (MMC), binding it to a specific port using netsh, and then validating the binding.

OPENSSL GENERATE CERTIFICATE

Install OpenSSL

Visit one of the following websites and download the proper version of SSL for your operating system:

PASSING METADATA FIELDS TO ARGUMENTS IN KUBERNETES YAML FILES

Passing metadata fields like metadata.name or metadata.namespace to the arguments field in Kubernetes YAML files is a powerful way to dynamically configure your containers and pods. This can be especially useful when you need to pass information about the pod or the environment to your application code.
