Monitoring a Windows machine via Nagios

Josh Palmer - May 28, 2014 - 5:03pm

In this post, I detail how to setup Nagios to monitor a Windows machine via NSClient++

Prerequisites:

  • A working Nagios install, configured on a server with a fixed IP
  • The latest NSClient++ MSI Installer

NOTE: At time of writing, the latest version of NSClient++ is 0.42 and is recommended as 0.41 has issues with binding to IPv4 addresses

Compiling mixed Sage and Python code with Cython

Pete Donnell's picture Pete Donnell - May 14, 2014 - 4:26pm
At the moment I’m working on some maths code written in a combination of standard Python and its mathematical superset, Sage. The code is fairly computationally expensive (it’s essentially a brute force search for chemical reaction networks that are monotone). Consequently, after getting the code working as a proof-of-concept, I wanted to compile it to C using Cython to get a bit more speed out of it. I found the documentation on converting Sage and Python scripts to Cython a bit vague, particularly when it comes to combining the two, so this article gives step by step instructions based on my findings.

Introducing CoNtRol: an open source web application for analysing Chemical Reaction Networks

Pete Donnell's picture Pete Donnell - Feb 24, 2014 - 7:45pm
I’m very excited to announce the public release of CoNtRol, a web application designed to carry out mathematical analysis of chemical reaction networks. A formal introduction has been accepted for publication in Bioinformatics, and technical documentation is available on the reaction networks wiki. In this article I want to talk a bit about the design philosophy behind CoNtRol.
