    Spam is back

    by  • 16th June 2007

    After introducing recaptcha to my blog, I have enjoyed some time spam free. They are back, but this time instead of using comments form, they use something what is called Trackback/Pingback.

    My little CA

    by  • 12th May 2007

    I have been, recently, working with OpenSSL as a mini CA. As it is a great product, does everything with PKI what you need. Even after a while it is making sense how to use it. No problems. One issue, which held me a while was lack of clear information, instructions or interface to...

    by  • 31st March 2007
