			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Because we didn&#8217;t find a server monitoring tool, that fit all of our needs, our System Administrator Frank (think of him as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Kahn" target="_blank">Oliver Kahn</a> for the world of System Administration) developed a Perl-based web-Interface for our platform. Of course we could have used several different tools to get the same functionality, but a single interface is just much more comfortable.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">toksta* Server Monitoring (tsm) is designed for developers to keep an eye on the Servers and for System Administrators to see important logfiles, statistics and additional system information in one single interface.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">As a special feature an interface for Subversion is implemented, so we can do checkouts from our version control to all webservers in a single operation. All remote operations on the servers are done by commands via SSH, so we can implement each command execution on our servers with only some short lines of Perl. But it&#8217;s not only a webinterface: Additionally to that it contains a tool named &#8216;tsm_cron&#8217; for running tasks on your servers like backing up directories and databases, generating performance graphs, checking MD5 sums of important files etc.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Because this tool may be useful for other platforms with replicated MySQL databases and multiple webservers and some code snippets also may be useful for usage in modules for Nagios, we released this tool as an open-source software. Informations about the project and a download of the first alpha- release is available at <a href="http://tokstamonitor.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank">Sourceforge.net</a>.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><strong>At the moment the following features are implemented:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>monitoring of MySQL replication</strong></li>
<li><strong>MySQL process lists and settings</strong></li>
<li><strong>process monitoring with Monit</strong></li>
<li><strong>file alteration monitoring</strong></li>
<li><strong>logviewer for different logs like webserver logfiles, backup logs etc.</strong></li>
<li><strong>performance monitoring graphs</strong></li>
<li><strong>Subversion checkout interface for checkouts to multiple servers</strong></li>
<li><strong>Memcache monitoring</strong></li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoPlainText">
<p class="MsoPlainText"><strong>We plan to implement additional functions like:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>user management to allow users access to specific modules</li>
<li>service restarts on all servers</li>
<li>terminal for shell access</li>
<li>monitoring of running processes on servers</li>
<li>Subversion checkouts for single files</li>
<li>adding, modifying and deleting virtual hosts on webservers</li>
<li>runtime changing of MySQL settings</li>
<li>firewall interface (adding and deleting rules etc)</li>
<li>adding, modifying and deleting cronjobs</li>
<li>restart of entire replicated MySQL system</li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The development status is still alpha, but feature requests and help on development are very welcome! A documentation for implementing toksta* Server Monitoring into your platform is coming with our next release.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">If you like the software please send your Feedback directly to Frank or leave comment and <strong>support toksta by spreading the word!</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">Today we are proud to announce our new release with long awaited and heavily requested features:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Probably the most interesting feature is what we call <strong>&#8220;the facebook-like chat bar&#8221;</strong>. Just take a look at the screenshot below and you will get the idea:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://blog.toksta.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/mhp_11.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-110 aligncenter" title="mhp_11" src="http://blog.toksta.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/mhp_11-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">As you can see, the chat-bar is placed at the very bottom of the screen to be always visible but never disturbing.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The next screenshot shows the online user search.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://blog.toksta.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/bar_1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-106 aligncenter" title="bar_1" src="http://blog.toksta.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/bar_1.jpg" alt="" width="355" height="399" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">And the next screenshot (no, I am not color blind&#8230;) pretty much demonstrates the options for the chat bar design customization:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://blog.toksta.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/bar-1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-108 aligncenter" title="chat bar crazy colors" src="http://blog.toksta.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/bar-1.jpg" alt="chat bar crazy colors" width="352" height="250" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">You can change:</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>The chat background color of the bar and the titles (pink)</li>
<li>The background color of the tab hover (turquoise)</li>
<li>The bordercolor (dark blue)</li>
<li>The text color (white) and font</li>
<li>The background color of the layer (bright geen)</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: left;">Furthermore you can activate or de-activate</p>
<ul>
<li>the friendslist</li>
<li>the search filter</li>
<li>the gender and</li>
<li>the display of the number of online users.</li>
</ul>
<p>Just go to our customer backend at toksta.com (see screenshot):</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://blog.toksta.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/backend2.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-118 alignnone" title="backend2" src="http://blog.toksta.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/backend2-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
