Manipulating “date added” in the Plex Media Server Database
So I noticed a quite annoying thing in my Plex Server, some items were always marked as “recently added”. As usual, I went online and searched for a solution. Some posts suggested to wipe the library and start over, while some posts suggested that doing that doesn’t fix the problem as the “bug” seems to be that when an initial...

No ports showing in LibreNMS for Fortigate Firewalls
After looking at GitHub for a solution I consulted the very helpful people in #LibreNMS at FreeNode (IRC) and got this solution. Add this line in you config.php: And guess what, it works! Why does LibreNMS behave like this? Well, it’s because LibreNMS assumes that there should be a “ifdescr” in the SNMP answer from the Firewall, while Fortigate has...

Remove all old kernels on your Ubuntu
When you login to your system and /boot is full, don’t panic! Run this command and lean back, take a cup of coffee and relax, breath!
