Munaretto's Gem Apps
To celebrate 25 years of collaboration with Venis, I present the best collection of system apps that I have created to manage some important services.
A good resolution for 2023
1998-2023 (1/4 century guys, it's amazing) the years go by but the Gem Apps are always here. Maybe during 2023 I will put other in the pipeline: see you soon.
ATe, zApp, Pinger CAM
Just VPN, Dr. VPN, DNS Guru
Developed with PHP, JavaScript, Perl, Awk, PowerShell, Python.
These are some of the best and still the most used.
ATe
e-mail assessment toolkit.
Not only a gem app: a real diamond. Do you want to know everything instantly, lightning fast, about e-mail accounts without wasting time giving dozens of commands or clicks? Oriented to the collection and search of information, with this app you can control thousands of accounts, spread over various domains, facilitating the creation of provisioning scripts. Still very useful. To learn more...
zApp
the best apps for e-mail.
Technicians and system engineers, without knowing anything about the mail environment, can verify/unlock an account, manage the "send-as" rules, create mail/calendar/address_book shares, update distribution lists, extend mailbox quota. Over the years, the management operations most requested by users.
Pinger CAM
cam monitoring.
The app allows the management of the monitored cameras. After logging in with Active Directory credentials, we can register a camera, add notes, change the values of a cam, "ping" it and record/notify if it is alive or dead. All management operations are logged in a log. Dedicated to the Network Working Group ;)
Just VPN
to schedule vpn openings and closures.
Need to activate a vpn for a certain account, on a certain day, at a certain time, or for more days, maybe 24h x 7d? Use this app that "talks" to Active Directory. And also, logs everything: who, when and for how long will use the vpn.
Dr. VPN
the vpn doctor.
Credit a new vpn account. Modification of your data. Password change. Sending the same via sms. Account removal. The app allows all this with lots of logs, and notifications. Originally, this app managed vpn accounts directly on Cisco terminal servers. A great simplification for systems engineers.
Self VPN
self-service to open the vpn.
This app allows the user accredited to the vpn to receive an OTP pin code and use it to activate the opening of the vpn until the end of the day. Everything is tracked in the log and notified to both the user and the security managers. Really useful.
WSI
websites inventory.
A real-time updated catalog of all websites "proxied" by nginx clusters. No more headaches figuring out which nginx proxy runs a certain site and what its backend server is.
Searchable with the browser's Ctrl+F
DNS Guru
query and registration.
Web App to check if a FQDN domain name is correctly resolved by the galaxy of DNS servers we have in the LAN and in the CLOUD. You can also register a new name and corresponding IP address.
Developed with python, flask and gunicorn: really three good guys.
L 4 L
looking for locking.
In Active Directory it often happens to have strange and repeated cases of accounts being locked due to failed logon attempts. The app helps us find them and shows who is being locked out, what causes the lockout, and when it occurs.
Grand Total
for Veeam.
Developed with Veeam Backup PowerShell and JavaScript, the app draws a chart showing the total space used by backups performed with Veeam Backup & Replication. Useful for those providing BaaS (Backup as a Service) to multiple entities/companies.
TestArd
+ TestApp.
A sort of "logbook" where to record/search for all the anomalies or errors of applications and hardware in the Data Center. The database used is MySQL while the app code is PHP.
Music Quiz
guess the note.
Ok, I know. It has nothing to do with it but I also list this app that I programmed to learn the notes on the staff.
For guitar, for piano and for fun ;)
