In this article I given step by step information about How to install siege on Linux box. I given the full commands and there output with full description.

How to install siege on Linux box

ABOUT SIEGE – Background
Siege is an http load testing and benchmarking utility. It was designed to let web developers measure their code under duress, to see how it will stand up to load on the internet. Siege supports basic authentication, cookies, HTTP and HTTPS protocols. It lets its user hit a web server with a configurable number of simulated web browsers. Those browsers place the server “under siege.”

PLATFORM SUPPORT
Siege was written on GNU/Linux and has been successfully ported to AIX, BSD, HP-UX and Solaris. It should compile on most System V UNIX variants and on most newer BSD systems. Because Siege relies on POSIX.1b features not supported by Microsoft, it will not run on Windows. Of course you can use Siege to test a Windows HTTP server.

Download siege from following URL or Using following command
[kapil@kapil-pc ~]$ wget ftp://ftp.joedog.org/pub/siege/siege-latest.tar.gz
[kapil@kapil-pc ~]$ tar xzf siege-latest.tar.gz
[kapil@kapil-pc ~]$ mv siege-2.69 siege
[kapil@kapil-pc ~]$ cd siege
[kapil@kapil-pc siege ~]$ su

How to install and setup varnish on fedora9

Varnish is an HTTP accelerator designed for content-heavy dynamic web sites. In contrast to other HTTP accelerators, many of which began life as client-side proxies or origin servers, Varnish was designed from the ground up as an HTTP accelerator.

Use following command:
[root@localhost siwan]# su
[root@localhost siwan]# yum install varnish
ncurses are needed for textual “graphical” configuration.
[root@localhost siwan]# yum install ncurses-devel

Edit the setting of varnish
[root@localhost siwan]# vim /etc/varnish/default.vcl

Start the varnish.
[root@localhost varnish]# /etc/init.d/varnish start

on startup set varnish on
[root@localhost varnish]# /sbin/chkconfig varnish on

How to use hosts file on Mac, Windows and Linux

The hosts file is a computer file used by an operating system to map hostnames to IP addresses.
On many operating systems, the host file content is used preferentially over other methods,
such as the Domain Name System (DNS). Unlike DNS, the hosts file is under the control of the local computer’s administrator

Locate the file “Hosts” on your computer:
Windows
Windows 95/98/Me c:\windows\hosts
Windows NT/2000/XP Pro c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Windows XP Home c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

Linux
/etc/hosts or /etc/host.conf or /etc/nsswitch.conf

Symbian
C:\system\data\hosts

Mac OS
/private/etc/hosts or /etc/hosts

In that file you can edit entry like this

# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost localhost yourlocaldomain.com , example.com
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
192.168.2.200 intranet

directory.example.com 71.155.186.91

When I opened the apache error log file. I saw following error.

ModSecurity: Access denied with code 400 (phase 2). Pattern match “%0[ad]” at REQUEST_HEADERS:Cookie. [id “950910”] [msg “HTTP Response Splitting Attack. Matched signature <%0a>”] [severity “ALERT”] [hostname “localhost”] [uri “/”] [unique_id “SuWoGH8AAAEAAFF3rKEAAAAA”]

I after doing some R&D but I did not got any perfect soluction.
Then I cleared the whole browser cookies. That solves my problem.

solution – clear the browser cookies…
