   I was trying out GitLab EE and ran into some install issues on RHEL5 (which were solvable - http://www.digitalsanctuary.com/tech-blog/general/installing... ). However even after a couple days I was unable to get the LDAP integration and LDAP group permissions to work correctly. GitLab support wasn't able to solve it for me, so I tried Stash. 30 minutes later, up and running the way I wanted it.

   You can use simple iptables rules to block brute forcing, while still leaving things open for you on standard ports: http://www.digitalsanctuary.com/tech-blog/debian/using-iptab... Although now I've moved to CSF which does this and much much more.

   I love it! It's $$ but it's a business expense. I get the full 50/10 they advertise: http://www.digitalsanctuary.com/tech-blog/general/comcast-50... The only issue is you're still limited by the 250 GB/month transfer cap. My first month with 50/10 I did over 750 GB, and got a phone call about it:>

   Because Softlayer (as much as they rock) don't have failover for those load balancers. You may not need it, but after we had our site downed due to hardware failure of one of their load balancers, we moved to a redundant software based setup. We used HAProxy and Heartbeat2 to provide fully redundant load balancers. On our smaller sites, we actually run the HAProxy and Heartbeat2 on two of the web servers for that cl…

   Thank you! I have two blogs, professional and personal ( http://www.digitalsanctuary.com/tech-blog/ and http://www.digitalsanctuary.com/blog/ ), however I haven't really talked too much about my "lessons learned" or experiences yet. Maybe I should.

   Or just stick a few iptables rules to slow down brute-force attempts from the same IP http://www.digitalsanctuary.com/tech-blog/debian/using-iptab...

   Software providers need to move off of core-based licensing both due to how CPU evolution is going wider (multi-core) faster than it's going deep (GHz), and due to the cloud computing aspect. A small post I made on the topic: http://www.digitalsanctuary.com/tech-blog/java/atg/rant-abou...
