Code, discoveries, detours. Collected over the years.
Kali Linux is a Penetration-Testing Distro basted on Linux. Most people reading my blog may already know that, but what you might have overheard when you’re not owning an Android-device, there is something called Kali NetHunter Linux,…
If you’re running Liftweb Applications in production, you might either be using Tomcat or Jetty. If you’re using Jetty, you’ve probably stumbled across David Pollak’s jetty.tgz (i don’t find the link anymore). While it is a nice…
