Amazon: Delete bucket created by Elastic Beanstalk

By -
I tested Beanstalk once and found it not suitable for my requirements, so I decided to terminate it right away. However, it had created an S3 bucket that persisted. I tried manually deleting the bucket but it gave me an 'Access Denied' error, which was odd because I had full permissions on it.

After some research, I found this quick fix:

  1. On S3 console, select the bucket and go to its Properties
  2. Expand Permissions
  3. Click on Edit bucket policy
  4.  Scroll down to where it says:
    {
    "Sid": "eb-58950a8c-feb6-11e2-89e0-0800277d041b",
    "Effect": "Deny",
    "Principal": {
                    "AWS": "*"
                },
    "Action": "s3:DeleteBucket",
    "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::elasticbeanstalk-ap-southeast-1-662143823546"

    }
  5. Change the "Deny" value to "Allow".
  6. Save and that's it. You can now delete the bucket

Multiple Remote Desktop sessions on Windows XP

By -
Continuing on from my last post about setting up RemoteApp on Windows XP. I needed to make the old application available to multiple users, so I have decided to modify the Terminal Service in my WinXP box to allow multiple remote session. I found the instructions here . It's pretty simple. You just need to replace termsrv.dll file and apply some registry changes. But you do have to consider that Windows XP employs a Windows File Protection system that detects when system files are changed and replaces it back with the original microsoft version of it. Here's what I did: Grab the file termsrv_sp3_patch.rar from the link above. Back the file C:\windows\system32\termsrv.dll into another location.  Open service.msc and change the Start-up property of the Terminal Service to Disabled Restart the computer. After restart, delete the file termsrv.dll from the following locations C:\windows\sytem32\ C:\windows\system32\dllcache C:\windows\ServicePacks\x86 Copy the termsrv.dll file from...
