I'd like to build a real quick and dirty administrative backend for a rails app I have been attached to at the last minute. I've looked at activescaffold and streamlined and think they are both very attractive and they should be simple to get running but I don't quite understand how to set up either one as a backend admin page. They se...

I've just started playing with Django and am loosely following the tutorial with my own set of basic requirements. The models I've sketched out so far are a lot more comprehensive than the tutorial, but they compile fine. Otherwise, everything should have been the same. My problem is with the admin application. I can log into it, and vi...
I am currently working with a developer who is experinced at MsSQL, but not much at MySQL. He has been cursing MySQL for having Bugs, and also being far harder to use. Is is becuase his experince has been so good with Managment studio. It seems to me that his problems are with using phpMyAdmin. For example, he cites not being able to c...

I would like to restrict access to my /admin URL to internal IP addresses only. Anyone on the open Internet should not be able to login to my web site. Since I'm using Lighttpd my first thought was to use mod_rewrite to redirect any outside request for the /admin URL back to my home page, but I don't know much about Lighty and the docs...
Hi guys, I'm a developer who had handed to him the admin duties for our IIS server. I'm reasonably familiar with IIS in terms of setting up web sites, virtual directories, and such and such, but I figure if I'm going to be administrator the server entirely, I better get up to speed. Any recommendations for IIS books, especially for som...

Recently a friend of mine had gone from a high level NOC position to a developer. Before that he was just doing the help desk stuff. He has no degree, only the usual MIS/networking certifications and as far as I know only tinkers with code on the weekends. I can see where in some scenarios having a good understanding of configurations, p...

Django's auth messages look pretty handy for notifying a CMS user of some configuration problem. The thing is that the messages are deleted on every page load if you include the "django.core.context_processors.auth" context processor, and you have to include that processor if you want to use the admin interface. I tried hacking around i...
I'm in the final stages of implementing a codeigniter site which requires a really simple login system: one user and one password, to protect the admin area. I think I will be using one of the many CI authentication libraries, which should allow me to ensure that people can't read from the database without being logged in as admin(I hop...
