Broadcom Wireless Drivers Installation : Ubuntu[SOLVED]

While one installs a fresh Ubuntu OS in any machine,typically he finds an initial deterrent as the Wifi adapter is not found  installed.This post gives a step by step direction on how and what to do,to get the Wifi working....and this happens since the same is not installed by default.

Since the PCI.ID initials for any Wifi broadcom adapter is prefixed 14e4,thus first we need to find the exact PCI.ID

Type 

lspci -nn -d 14e4:

Once you get the PCI.ID,you just need to ref the following table and find the corresponding driver to be installed.In our case is 14e4:4365 rev 01,so we choos the corresponding bcmwl-kernel-source

PCI.ID              14.04 LTS                        16.04+

BITCOIN FORENSICS

1.  The increased use of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin among private users and some businesses has opened a new avenue of research in the field of digital forensics involving cryptocurrencies. Since the creation of Bitcoin in 2008, cryptocurrencies have begun to make a presence in the world of e-commerce. Cryptography serves as the underlying foundation for Bitcoin, which gives it the benefits of confidentiality, integrity, nonrepudiation and authentication. Having been designed and built upon the foundation of these four objectives makes Bitcoin an attractive alternative to mainstream currency and provides users with the benefits of payment freedom, security, very low fees, and fewer risks for merchants.This presentation brings out the FORENSICS aspects as associated with BITCOINS.

Privacy Concerns & Server Locations : Hike-Telegram-Whatspp

1.    I have always seen and observed discussions amongst my friends and circle about which Chat Messenger is safe and which is not in terms of safety and privacy aspects.Whether the servers are located inside the country or they are off-shores,how their data is shared and how is their privacy likely to be compromised bu third parties.....So to just do a over view check,here I present an over view of such FAQs in context of Server Locations and data sharing aspects,primarily sourced from the original websites.

Nextcloud 10 installation @ Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

1.   Nextcloud is open source file sync and share software for everyone from individuals operating the free Nextcloud Server in the privacy of their own home, to large enterprises and service providers supported by the Nextcloud Enterprise Subscription. Nextcloud provides a safe, secure, and compliant file synchronization and sharing solution on servers that you control.

2.   This post shares screen shots of my installation of the same in UBUNTU 16.04 LTS.The screen-shots are self explanatory along with the command sets available for direct lift if one is interested.

Here's my ip address configuration as set on the virtual machine Ubuntu.

Terminal commands :

> apt-get update

 

 > apt-get install lamp-server^

> apt-get install libapache2-mod-php7.0 php7.0-mbstring php7.0-curl php7.0-zip php7.0-gd php7.0-mysql php7.0-mcrypt

> apt-get install php-xml

Goto the nextcloud site at https://nextcloud.com/install/ and download the zip file for nextcloud installation.This one is version 10

Downloading here as seen completing :

Goto the Downloads folder and unzip it
> unzip nextcloud-10.0.0.zip

> mv nextcloud /var/www/html
> chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/nextcloud

Now we need to Configure MariaDB for this vide these commands as mentioned :
> mysql_secure_installation
Type Yes for all except may be root password which u might want to retain.

CREATE DATABASE nextcloud;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON nextcloud.* TO 'nextcloud'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'anupam';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit;

> Gedit /etc/mysql/my.cnf

Add the following three lines at the end:
log-bin = /var/log/mysql/mariadb-bin
log-bin-index = /var/log/mysql/mariadb-bin.index
binlog_format = mixed
 

Now we need to Configure Apache Web Server
> sudo a2enmod rewrite
> touch /etc/apache2/sites-available/nextcloud.conf
> ln -s /etc/apache2/sites-available/nextcloud.conf /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/nextcloud.conf
> nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/nextcloud.conf

Add the following:

ServerAdmin admin@ubuntu
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/nextcloud/"
ServerName youripaddress
ServerAlias ubuntu

Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
allow from all
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/your-domain.com-error_log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/your-domain.com-access_log common

here you ready to go....just type the ipaddress in the web browser...
