Welcome to SifWiki
This site is a collection of docs and how-to's that hopefully are of use to others. They're mostly the results of my experimentation with software, hardware, coding and hacking of things. You'll find Arduino, Electronics, Solar Power, Home Automation, Linux, OSX and various other subjects here.
Some pages may be in a note format as I progress my way through a project, please feel free to email me with questions!
HowTo's
- http://wiki.siftah.com/RRDTool_Monitoring - Basic traffic monitoring with RRDTool and iptables, this should now be deprecated by the excellent Munin package, but the technique is perhaps a useful exercise for the reader and the page still gets hits so it must be useful to someone.
