Pyftpdlib + PyFilesystem
The title of this post mentions two great Python libraries which I use heavily. Actually it is a disingenuous to call them libraries, because they are both in fact systems. I use these systems as part of the foundation of SmartFile, which is a Cloud storage provider with FTP, SFTP as well as HTTP and API file access methods.
Besides my use of both projects, Pyftpdlib and PyFilesystem have another thing in common: great maintainers. I could not have pulled off everything I have with these two projects without the great oversight and direction of Giampaolo Rodola (pyftpdlib) and Will
HAProxy Logging Hostname to Syslog.
By default HAProxy will not log the system hostname to syslog. For me this meant that syslog-ng was inserting “127.0.0.1″ instead of the machine name. I use the machine name to filter my log entries to specific files.
I found an undocumented feature in the latest HAProxy, log-send-hostname which changes this behaviour.
