So, to get something like /etc/rc.local you can use the custom SMF import facility. (See the source for more information about how this actually works.)

/opt is mounted out of zones/opt by default. You can create a directory /opt/custom/smf and populate it with SMF manifests. Any manifests you put in there will be imported by SmartOS when it boots. Below is an example SMF manifest that simply starts /opt/custom/bin/postboot, a self-explanatory shell script that you can use like /etc/rc.local.

Note that it would likely be better to customise and respin your own images, as putting a bunch of platform state in the zones pool undoes some of the benefits of the ramdisk platform architecture that SmartOS has.

Creating a dynamic site-to-site VPN with OpenSwan on Ubuntu 10.04 on EC2

Wes Winham [email protected]

There are many tutorials floating around the web that almost get you a dynamic VPN in EC2. The goal of this tutorial is to be a one-stop-shop for this specific setup.

I'm hunting for the best solution on how to handle keeping large sets of DB records "sorted" in a performant manner.

Problem Description

Most of us have work on projects at some point where we have needed to have ordered lists of objects. Whether it be a to-do list sorted by priority, or a list of documents that a user can sort in whatever order they want.

A traditional approach for this on a Rails project is to use something like the acts_as_list gem, or something similar. These systems typically add some sort of "postion" or "sort order" column to each record, which is then used when querying out the records in a traditional order by position SQL query.

This approach seems to work fine for smaller datasets, but can be hard to manage on large data sets with hundreds (or thousands) of records needing to be sorted. Changing the sort position of even a single object will require updating every single record in the database that is in the same sort group. This requires potentially thousands of wri

Asynchronous programming with Tornado

Asynchronous programming can be tricky for beginners, therefore I think it's useful to iron some basic concepts to avoid common pitfalls.

For an explanation about generic asynchronous programming, I recommend you one of the [many][2] [resources][3] [online][4].

I will focus on solely on asynchronous programming in [Tornado][1]. From Tornado's homepage:
