Disable services in Solaris 10

To disable a service, you must be root or have sudo privileges.

For example, to disable the Puppet service, you would run the following command:

svcadm disable network/cswpuppetd:default

This will disable the Puppet service and prevent it from running.

To verify that the service has been disabled, you can run the following command:

svcs | grep puppet

This will list all of the services that are currently running, and if the Puppet service is disabled, it will not be listed.

How to install PHP development files

If you want to run phpize on your system, you need to install the development files of PHP first. Otherwise, you might get an error message like this:

sh: phpize: not found
ERROR: `phpize' failed

To install the PHP development files on Ubuntu/Debian, you can use the following command in the terminal:

apt-get install php5-dev

That should solve the problem. 🙂

How To Get The Current Epoch Time (Unix Timestamp)

  • PHP
  • PostgreSQL
  • powershell
  • Python
  • ruby
  • shell
  • sql server
  • unix
  • Unix Timestamp
  • vbscript

disableHLJS: false#

  • Perl:
time
  • PHP:
time()
  • Ruby:
Time.now # (or Time.new). To display the epoch: Time.now.to_i
  • Python:
import time # first, then int(time.time())
  • Java:
long epoch = System.currentTimeMillis()/1000;
  • Microsoft .NET C#:
epoch = (DateTime.Now.ToUniversalTime().Ticks - 621355968000000000) / 10000000;
  • VBScript/ASP:
DateDiff("s", "01/01/1970 00:00:00", Now())
  • Erlang:
calendar:datetime_to_gregorian_seconds(calendar:now_to_universal_time( now()))-719528*24*3600. # OR element(1, now()) * 10000 + element(2, now()).
  • MySQL:
SELECT unix_timestamp(now())
  • PostgreSQL:
SELECT extract(epoch FROM now());
  • Oracle PL/SQL:
SELECT (SYSDATE - TO_DATE('01-01-1970 00:00:00', 'DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')) * 24 * 60 * 60 FROM DUAL
  • SQL Server:
SELECT DATEDIFF(s, '1970-01-01 00:00:00', GETUTCDATE())
  • JavaScript:
Math.round(new Date().getTime()/1000.0) // getTime() returns time in milliseconds.
  • Unix/Linux Shell:
date +%s
  • PowerShell:
Get-Date -UFormat "%s" # Produces: 1279152364.63599
  • Actionscript:
(new Date()).time
  • Other OS’s Command line:
perl -e "print time" # (If Perl is installed on your system)
  • ColdFusion (CFML) MX 6.1+:
#int( getTickCount() / 1000 )#
  • Bash Command Line:
date +%s

How to Identify Your Linux Distribution and Version with Simple Commands

If you are using a Linux-based operating system and you want to know which specific distribution and version you have installed, there is a simple command that can help you with that. Just open a terminal window and type the following:

cat /etc/issue

This will display the name and the release number of your Linux distribution. For example, if you are using Debian 4.0, the output will look like this:

Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 \n \l

The \n and \l are special characters that represent the current date and the name of the terminal device, respectively. They are not part of the distribution name.
