Arcsight Logger 5.3 CentOS 5.9 Virtualisation

Get the VirtualBox CentOS 5 as a 7z file from:

http://virtualboxes.org/images/centos/
  • Uncompress and save the Centos64.vbox and Centos64.vdi files.
  • Open the Oracle VM VirtualBox manager and select the vbox file to install
  • Make > 20GB disc or there will not be room for logger.
  • Login as root/reverse
Install Gnome Desktop as follows and start:
  • yum groupinstall "X Window System" "GNOME Desktop Environment" 
  • login root/reverse and startx
Check version of CentOS and other prelim:
  • cat /etc/redhat-release #CentOS release 5.9 (Final)
  • uname -a # somewhere x86_64 
  • create user logger
  • open port 443
  • check logger bin file execute box and double click.
  • run in terminal
If not enough space to install logger:
  • C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe modifyhd "D:\virtual machines\Centos\centos64.vdi" --resize 20000
  • shutdown centos VM
  • attach gparted-live-0.16.2-1b-i486.iso to CD drive
  • resize sda up to increased size 
  • start Centos VM and find free PE (Physical Extents) #lvm lvgdisplay
Free PE / Size 369 / 11.53 GB
  • Find the current LE (Logical Extents) with #lvm lvdisplay /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
Current LE 220
  • lvm lvresize -l 589 /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
  • resize2fs  /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00
  • df -h # To check Centos file system has new allocated space.

Hi Geoff,
Thanks for the post. Is it possible for you to share a pre-configured VM with arcsight loaded in it. It saves lot of time & effort for many people. Pls suggest.

Thanks.

Digital Bandpass Filter FIR design - Python

The python code generates the Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter coefficients for a lowpass filter (LPF) at 10 (Hz) cut off using firwin from scipy.  A highpass filter is then created by subtracting the lowpass filter output(s) from the output of an allpass filter. To do this the coefficients of the LPF are multiplied by -1 and 1 added to the centre tap (to create the allpass filter with subtraction). A second LPF is then created with a cutoff at 15 (Hz) and the bandpass filter formed by addition of the LPF and HPF coefficients. The program also generates a test sine wave of a given amplitude and power and to this noise from a Normal distribution is added.  The graph below shows the signal and nois, and the signal (green) after filtering. The input snr is approximately 3dB. The frequency response below shows the passband centered on 12.5 (Hz), the Nyquist frequency is 50 (Hz). from numpy import cos, sin, pi, absolute, arange from numpy.random import normal fr...

FT 817 Power Amplifier

This very simple 2 Fet power amplifier easily achieves 250W output with an FT817 5W drive. The key design details as follows: 3:1 broadband input transformer matches the 5.5 ohm gate load resistor (4 x 22 ohms in parallel) to the 50 ohms required by the FT817 . The 4:1 output broadband transformer presents 3 ohms (16:1 impedance ratio) to the balanced HEXFET pair each mounted on a 3mm copper heat spreader which is insulated from the 2 1w/degC heatsinks. These are blown cool by a fan underneath. The power supply required is 28v at 30 amps. The amp is around 50% efficient with a standing 750mAmp temperature compensated bias. An IC 703, with 10watts output will drive the output to around 400 watts. The output filter shown is a 5 pole topband filter with T130-2 torroids and 400v silver mica caps. Peak output voltage on 160 metres with 5 watts drive is 160v or 320v p-p in 50 ohms equating to 250watts. This is slightly higher than the reading on the 3kw MFJ power meter. The inline F...

Topband Vertical Antenna

It's not a great vertical by any standards, but on the plus side, its cheap, fits in a small garden, could be considered a temporary structure, is dual band by just removing the bottom loading coil and capacitor and.... just add more pwr for more erp. The total height is 43 ft - 10m fishing pole up 3 m off the ground, attached to a 27ft ex - army telescopic mast. Centre loading coil is just above the main mast at about 30 ft - 110 turns of 2.5mm square wire on a piece of waste pipe. This matches the antenna without further components at the CW end of 80m. The addition of a further series loading coil and 1000 pf cap at the base matches it on 160m. Currently with just 4 radials the match is 1:1.4 between 1820kHz and 1840kHz - best DX to date is eastern US with CW and 400W.
