This blog post will discuss how OpenVPN can be connected to the GitLab user database. Data in a Git repository often require a lot of work, meaning a lot of energy, time and money. If you don’t want to rely on the GitLab login alone but instead want additional protection before it, one way to…

It also wouldn’t hurt to have a rescue system. Many people use live systems like grml, Kali or Damn Small Linux. But each of these systems has limitations,…
We’ve decided to use GitLab CI to build Debian packages automatically. GitLab CI allows users to execute tasks based on definable events, such as Git tags. We’ve created a generic Docker container which contains the base package-building tools and is used by GitLab to build the package. Updates can be easily installed in the build…
I recently had a customer on the line who was complaining about a script that was running too slowly. It was an import that generally takes several hours.
