Dial up GPRS on Maestro Lite 100 modem

If you are using Maestro (Lite) 100 GPRS/GSM modem, can be a little bit difficult to do dial up using that device. Means we’re using the modem for dial up GPRS to connect to internet. It’s very rare modem, for really special purpose modem. A little bit hard to find the configuration on the internet. After doing some work around to find out, trying and searching the best way to connect with it. Finally I am able to connect.

Configuration:
OS: Ubuntu (Gutsy Gibbon)
Modem: Maestro Lite 100 GPRS/GSM Modem
Connection: /dev/ttyUSB0

Here’s the configuration in /etc/wvdial.conf, I’m using AXIS simcard (you can edit you own username, password and access point):

[Dialer Defaults]
Username = axis
Password = 123456
Phone = *99***1#
Init2 = AT&F
Init3 = AT+CGDCONT=1,”IP”,”axis“,”0.0.0.0″,0,0
Stupid Mode = 1
Inherits = Modem1
New PPPD = yes
Dial Command = ATDT
ISDN = 0
Modem Type = USB Modem

[Modem1]
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
Baud = 9600
SetVolume = 0
Dial Command = ATDT
Init1 = ATZ
FlowControl = crtscts

After successfully dial up, you will be able to browse the web. Here’s some log when connect:
iqbalir@unknown-localhost:/$ sudo wvdial

Bagaimana jika saya bilang saya tahu password blog Dian Sastro?


Anda punya blog? Ya punya lah! Apa yang paling rahasia di blog Anda? Umumnya tidak ada yang Anda rahasiakan, kecuali passwordnya! Jika password itu bisa ditebak orang lain, berarti blog Anda menjadi milik orang lain. Bukan begitu? Ya iya lah. Tapi umumnya, buat kita-kita yang nggak populer dan pakai blog gratis seperti WordPress.com, Blogger.com, dll, password yang tertebak tidak akan banyak pengaruhnya buat kita. Tapi bagi orang-orang terkenal seperti Dian Sastro, Budi Raharjo, Romi Satria Wahono, Cosa Aranda, dll ini artinya gawat! Pasalnya jika orang ini adalah pakar teknologi informasi, maka oknum pemecah password itu bisa mengaku-aku mengalahkan pemilik blog dan mempermalukannya.

Bagaimana memecahkan password blog?

Memang itu pertanyaannya. Kalau gampang sih, pasti sudah banyak oknum yang sesumbar “Saya bisa nge-crack blognya Dian Sastro!!!“. Kenyataannya tidak segampang itu. Kalau saya tanya Anda, “Menurut Anda gimana dapetin password blog Dian Sastro?”. Anda pasti menjawab dengan salah satu jawaban ini:

  • Eeemmmm, gimana ya? Susah kayanya.
  • Saya tinggal cobain aja semua kemungkinan passwordnya. Paling cuman 6 atau 7 digit.

Yap. Saya setuju dengan jawaban yang kedua. Begitulah cara mudahnya. Tapi itu kan teori, tapi sebenarnya gimana? Saya yakin Anda NATO, No Action Talking Only.

Cara yang akan saya sampaikan ini sepenuhnya teknis. Dengan trik-trik pemrograman yang cukup advance. Saya yakin belum ada yang membahas cara ini di Indonesia, atau bahkan mungkin dunia. Anda (yang mungkin programmer atau pecinta dunia hacking) akan menyesal kalau tidak membaca trik ini.

Kabar buruknya, karena keterbatasan waktu hari ini, saya terpaksa akan membahasnya dua atau tiga hari lagi.

Nb:

Blog Dian Sastro dibuat dengan WordPress, jadi memecahkan password Dian berarti Anda punya kemungkinan juga bisa memecah password blog lain yang ditulis dengan WordPress. Hehehe.

Koneksi Internet PC dengan Siemens M55 menggunakan kartu indosat m3


Well, ketika saya jalan-jalan ke sebuah mall elektronik di bandung. melirik seoonggok hp secend yang dipajang di etalasenya… wah dibenak saya (wah itu siemens tuh, cobain ah… beli..)…

akhirnya terbelilah sudah siemens yang kumaksud, seri m55 yang bisa GPRS. Uang yang kukeluarkan sebesar 300 ribu sudah terdapat hp+charger+kabel data bluetech (bukan kabel data aslinya) yang bisa sekaligus jadi charger.

pertama-tama saya buka ubuntu ku yang lucu dan imut. Kali ini saya menggunakan kartu m3-acess, silahkan untuk kartu yang lainnya bisa dicoba tinggal diganti parameternya saja . ok… colokin hpnya dengan kabel datanya kemudian langsung buka terminal dan mengetikkan perintah :

awangga@awangga:~$sudo wvdialconf

setelah itu saya edit wvdial.conf nya sama seperti saya menset modem sebelumnya,tapi setelah dipanggil wvdial ko ngga jalan… malah jadi aneh…. serching searcing lagi… walah walah ternyata dari hasil serchingku di milis ubuntu-id sususan wvdial.conf ternyata berbeda dengan settingannku… akhir ku ikuti saja. saya coba ganti wvdial.conf nya dengan perintah

awangga@awangga:~$sudo gedit /etc/wvdial.conf

menjadi seperti ini :

[Dialer Defaults]
Modem = /dev/ttyUSB0
init1 = ATZ
Init2 = AT+cgdcont=1,”IP”,”WWW.M3-ACCESS.NET
Stupid Mode = yes
Modem Type = USB Modem
Phone = *99***1#
New PPPD = yes
ISDN = 0
Username = indosat
Password = indosat
Baud = 115000

alhasil setelah dipanggil kembali, dengan perintah :

awangga@awangga:~$sudo wvdial

berjalan sempurna dan lancar…..alhamdulillah…

silahkan mencoba untuk tipe siemens nya ya….

legenda:

hijau : parameter yang bisa diganti tergantung operator

merah : perintah terminal

biru : isi dari sebuah file

Hari ini di kantor

Syukurlah hari ini tidak terlalu sibuk… ada kesempatan ngobrol dan jalan2 keliling kantor… sambil bersosialisasi…

dapet kuaci dapet keripik singkong

Tentunya tidak lupa memungut camilan di meja temen2 sekantor… :P

Lux Theme

lux

Description:
LUX:
I have started to work on a dark but eye friendly theme. I use my computer 7/24 and my eyes are not ‘trained’ enough to take the big difference of contrasts on the screen.
Therefore I aim to harmonize the use (to be able to use my computer for many hours without making my eyes tired) and the look (to have something tasteful on the desktop that I look at for many hours).
The theme will be updated often, after any progress I made.
The theme is based on the great Aurora engine and its installation is required.
Suggested gnome-panel size: 24 pix.
I have included the config file for compiz setup. Import into your compiz configuration and you will have the same opacity effect on menus like in the preview. You will find the config file in: /home/[USER]/.themes/LUX folder.

Edubuntu 7.10 Untuk PonPes AlKautsar


Akhirnya GGWL bergerak langsung ke masyarakat.

Atas inisiatip 2D (Dede [itbatam] & Deny [itpinggiran]), pd tgl 11 Mei 2008 kawan-2 di GGWL berupaya mengimplementasikan LTSP di lab komputer Ponpes Al Kautsar, Punggur - Batam.

Tidak banyak kesulitan yg muncul selain masalah VGA yg ga’ mendukung proyek ini. (Eh, plus koneksi internet dg Venus VT 80 ding!). Akhirnya dari jam 11 sampe jam 4 sore proyek ini kelar.

Sebenarnya, proyek ini sekedar sharing knowledge. Karena pihak ponpes sendiri berisi orang-2 yg melek teknologi. Bahkan mereka pernah mencobakan sendiri Edubuntu 7.04 di lab mereka. Tidak jelas mengapa tidak dilanjutkan.

ARE YOU A CRACKER OR A HACKER?


Linux users are often described as hackers. This doesn’t mean they maliciously break into computers or write viruses. It’s simply using the word hacker in its original sense from the 1970s, when it described a computer enthusiast who was interested in exploring the capabilities of computers. Many of the people behind multinational computing corporations started out as hackers. Examples are Steve Wozniak, a cofounder of Apple Computer, and Bill Joy, cofounder of Sun Microsystems.

The word hacker is believed to derive from model train enthusiasts who “hacked” train tracks together as part of their hobby. When computing became popular in the early 1970s, several of these enthusiasts also became interested in computing, and the term was carried across with them.

However, in recent years, the media has subverted the term hacker to apply to an individual who breaks into computer systems. This was based on ignorance, and many true hackers find the comparison extremely offensive. Because of this, the term cracker was invented to clearly define an individual who maliciously attacks computers.

So, don’t worry if an acquaintance describes herself as a Linux hacker, or tells you that she has spent the night “hacking.” Many Linux types use the term as a badge of honor.

HEYYY ROY…. whats your say…. Bloger=Hacker, Hacker=Cracker!!!!!

Pesta Rilis Ubuntu 8.04 dan BlankOn 3 di Makassar


Pesta Rilis Ubuntu 8.04 dan BlankOn 3 berlangsung dengan meriah walaupun hanya 2 jam (10.00 - 12.00) di ruang seminar MTC Karebosi Makassar.




Peserta terlihat sangat tertarik dengan sistem operasi ini apalagi setelah melihat cara instalasi yang mudah dan demo-demo compiz fusion dan antusias dari guru-guru yang ikut untuk mengajarkan GNU/Linux ini di sekolah-sekolah mereka tapi dengan kendala kurangnya bahan untuk pengajaran linux apalagi di toko buku. Mudah-mudahan KPLI Makassar bisa menindaklanjuti dengan rencana Roadshow Linux-nya :).

Menginstal PostgreSQL di Gutsy


Yach… Masih pake Gutsy….

Instal PostgreSQL
apt-get install postgresql

Ganti kata sandi postgres di DB:
sudo -u postgres psql postgres
lalu (di postgresql prompt):
ALTER USER postgres WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'katasandi';

Chicony Web Cam with Toshiba A205 series and Skype 2 for Linux


Skype 2 for Linux has a new feature, video cam. A lots of improvement compare to the previous version. If you have built in Chicony Web cam in your laptop (I use Toshiba A205 series) you can use it with Skype 2.

Note:
I assume that you have already a skype member.

Step 1. First you have to download it from http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/linux/beta/.

  • Select your Skype 2 based on what Linux that you use.

  • Since I use Ubuntu in this sample, so just click Ubuntu.

  • Save it on your Hard disk.

Step 2. Installation

If you use old version of Skype, I suggest to remove it first.


Remove your old version
(If you have. If not then you can jump to ‘Install New Version’).

Jogjakarta Ubuntu Release Party


Pamflet

As the picture is clearly explained, there will be Jogjakarta Ubuntu Release Party going on May 17th. This time we are targeting to attract more people in using Linux. And as you may read on my previous posts, our concern is the normal user, people who would use Linux just for office matter, or home usage, or anything that have nothing to do with technical stuff.

Well, so please be there and let the wings of penguin spreaded all over Jogjakarta.

Oh, one more thing … you may contact me for further information … just leave a comment here … Humm, and I really dreaming of Sandra Dewi attending this talkshow … *anyone know how to invite her??* :D

Output Buffering Untuk Template

Ceritanya saya dikasih script sama client. Script tersebut punya header.php dan footer.php sebagai include untuk, well, template. Nah, oleh client saya, saya disuruh untuk mengimplementasikan template HTML yang dia buat. Lebih jauh, dia juga minta supaya ada interface admin untuk mengubah template tersebut kalau suatu saat sudah bosan. Hmm… buat interface admin sih mudah, yang jadi masalah, file header.php itu meng-include beberapa file berupa menu.php yang isinya berupa file PHP untuk meng-generate menu secara dinamis. Dari sini saya memakai solusi output buffering seperti pada posting sebelumnya tentang logging file transaksi. Potongan scriptnya seperti berikut:

//ini function:
function getHTMLFromInclude($thefile)
{
        ob_start();
        include($thefile);
        $stream = ob_get_contents();
        ob_end_clean();
        return $stream;
}
//ini penggunaannya:
include(‘template_handler.php’);
/*isinya template_handler.php gak usah dijelaskan ya, cuman beberapa baris code deklarasi untuk template saja kok*/

$arrTemplate[‘{TOPMENU}’] = getHTMLFromInclude(‘menu.php’);
$arrTemplate[‘{SIDEMENU}’] = getHTMLFromInclude(‘menuleft.php’);

$stream = stripslashes(file_get_contents(‘templates/t.fp.header.php’));
//ini bagian parsing template tag
foreach($arrTemplate as $template => $value)
{
        $stream = str_replace($template, $value, $stream);
}
echo $stream;

Nah, sekarang di interface admin untuk template, tinggal taruh tag {TOPMENU} sesuai kebutuhan saja, tanpa harus repot-repot dengan include untuk menu.php.
