New server (Debian 5 /Lenny) - Everything else


Hardware & preparation | OS installation | Console & web monitoring | Network & application services | Multimedia | Security | Security & Performance | Everything Else



To do:
- add splash screen (at boot)
- remove dmesg from /var/log/messages
- instruct init to be aware of, and respond to, UPS




Quick HowToDo staff (in console)
- search the word "ipv6" within files, starting /etc/:
# grep -R ipv6 /etc/- search for the word "/swat" within a binary file:
# strings /usr/sbin/swat | grep "/swat"- find relevant config lines in file (lines without #):
# cat file | grep -v \# | grep .
- display the list of files under a directory and subdirectories:
# find /boot/grub -print
- find the most recently changed files (recursively):
# find . -type f -printf "%TY-%Tm-%Td %TT %p\n" | sort | less
- display uncommented lines within file: ...
- Mount an ISO image:
# mount -o loop -t iso9660 /path/to/file.iso /mount/temp




Few words about Debian 5.0.1 (lenny)
I like:
- .
- .

I don't like:
- doesn't have built-in NTFS support, as such cannot mount NTFS partitions upon installation (unlike Ubuntu)
- .
