I’ve been tinkering forever with parser generators; mostly to get behind how they work and what I can do with them.
A (long) while ago, I found myself in need for a Bison-like parser generator for PHP and there was none.

Sometimes it doesn’t work upgrading or downgrading via the UniFi Controller GUI. If that is the case, doing it via the CLI is quite safe and should work without any issues.
Below is a step-by-step guide:
Note: This manual procedure can be used regardless if you’re upgrading or downgrading.
Good luck!

Apparently, this ethernet device still causes problems to Debian’s “Wheezy” distribution.
In response to a request I present the [pre-compiled kernel module](/downloads/intel-82579v-gigabit-ethernet-driver-for-debian-wheezy/) for `amd64` only.
Instructions on how to get this puppy running are still available via [this post](/2011/04/intel-82579v-gigabit-ethernet-driver-for-debian-squeeze/) and the comments below it.
A proof of concept of a vulnerability in Parallels Confixx 3.3.9 (latest and final version) allowing an attacker to gain full write access (as root) to a UNIX server operating said hosting software.
I wrote an upgraded variant of the Apache killer script propagated on [Full Disclosure][1] capable of HTTPS requests. Also, other than its descendant, it can follow a server’s initial response for redirection which the original script interprets as the server not being vulnerable.

To those trying to install the new Debian Squeeze distribution and being owners of an Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet adaptor to which appropriate driver files are missing from the installation disks (I tried netinst and KDE-disk1), I present a compiled kernel module for AMD64.
