Ubuntu 11.04 [ISPConfig 3] Version 1.0 Author: Falko Timme <ft [at] falkotimme [dot] com> Follow me on Twitter Last edited 04/29/2011 This tutorial shows how to prepare an Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) server for the installation of ISPConfig 3, and how to install ISPConfig 3. Please note that this setup does not work for ISPConfig 2! I do not issue any guarantee that this will work for you! 1 Requirements To install such a system you will need the following: 2 Preliminary Note In this tutorial I use the hostname server1.example.com with the IP address 192.168.0.100 and the gateway 192.168.0.1. 3 The Base System Insert your Ubuntu install CD into your system and boot from it. (JavaScript must be enabled in your browser to view the large image as an image overlay.) Then select Install Ubuntu Server: Choose your language again (?) Then select your location: Choose a keyboard layout (you will be asked to press a few keys, and the installer will try to detect your keyboard layout based on the keys you pressed):
Setting Up A PXE Install Server For Multiple Linux Distributions With Ubuntu Edgy Eft Version 1.0 Author: Falko Timme <ft [at] falkotimme [dot] com> Last edited 12/15/2006 This tutorial shows how to set up a PXE (short for preboot execution environment) install server with Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft). A PXE install server allows your client computers to boot and install a Linux distribution over the network, without the need of burning Linux iso images onto a CD/DVD, boot floppy images, etc. This is handy if your client computers don't have CD or floppy drives, or if you want to set up multiple computers at the same time (e.g. in a large enterprise), or simply because you want to save the money for the CDs/DVDs. I want to say first that this is not the only way of setting up such a system. 1 Preliminary Note It is important that you have a decent internet connection because your client computers will fetch all needed packages from the repositories in the internet (I tested this on a 16MBit ADSL2+ connection which seems to be fast enough. ;-)). sudo passwd root su instead, etc.
How to setup dual NIC, multi-homed host to dual ethernet network? How do you setup dual NIC, multi-homed host? 1. What is multi-homed host? A multi-homed host is known as a computer that has multiple network connections, of which the connections may or may not be the same network. Web hosts and application service providers setup a multihomed router (or system) to connect to two or more upstream Internet Service Providers, and setup network redundancy. The term, multihomed, is used to denote that a system is connected to multiple networks. A single NIC (Network Interface Card) with multiple IP Addresses is not generally called multi-homed, but it is referred to as setting up an IP aliasing. 2. There are many reasons why one would setup a computer as a multi-homed host. 3. When setting up a dual NIC cards (multi-homed host), only one default gateway should be assigned to one of the two network adapters. ### On the Windows Box, ### One a Linux Box, bash# route add -net 10.10.10.0/24 gw 192.168.1.1 References RFC 1787: Routing in a Multi-provider Internet
Ubuntu Linux | a community for beginners and experts Basic Linux Commands Basic Linux Commands mkdir - make directories Usage mkdir [OPTION] DIRECTORY Options Create the DIRECTORY(ies), if they do not already exist. Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. -m, mode=MODE set permission mode (as in chmod), not rwxrwxrwx - umask -p, parents no error if existing, make parent directories as needed -v, verbose print a message for each created directory -help display this help and exit -version output version information and exit cd - change directories Use cd to change directories. mv- change the name of a directory Type mv followed by the current name of a directory and the new name of the directory. Ex: mv testdir newnamedir pwd - print working directory will show you the full path to the directory you are currently in. rmdir - Remove an existing directory rm -r Removes directories and files within the directories recursively. chown - change file owner and group chown [OPTION] OWNER[:[GROUP]] FILE chown [OPTION] :GROUP FILE u - User who owns the file. bg
Linux Commands for Beginning Server Administrators - www.reallylinux.com Allows you to change the timestamp on a file. Most common use: touch filename Using the basic touch command, as above, will simply force the current date and time upon the specified file. This is helpful, but not often used. However, another option that I've used in the past when administering servers, is to force a specific timestamp on a set of files in a directory. Read more of our commands on our reallylinux.com help page. For instance, to force a specific date and time upon all files in a directory, type: touch * You can also force a specific date/time stamp using the -t option like this: touch -t200103041200.00 * The command above will change all files in the current directory to take on the new date of March 4th, 2001 at noon. The syntax follows this pattern: YYYYMMDDhhmm.ss YYYY represents the four digit year, then the two digit month, day, hour and minutes.
