Multiserver Setup With Dedicated Web, Email, DNS & MySQL Database Servers On Debian Squeeze With ISPConfig 3

  • HowtoForge; By Till Brehm (Posted by falko on Oct 9, 2011 10:58 PM EDT)
  • Story Type: Tutorial; Groups: Debian
This tutorial describes the installation of an ISPConfig 3 multiserver setup with dedicated web, email, database and two DNS servers all managed trough a single ISPConfig 3 control panel. The setup described below uses five servers and can be extended easily to to a higher number of servers by just adding more servers. E.g. if you want to have two mailservers, do the setup steps from chapter 2 on both of these servers. If you want to set up more web servers, then install ISPConfig on all other web servers in expert mode except of the first one.

Open Source: Why Military Forces Should Use Linux

Why? Because the level of skill required to crack a Unix-like OS is much higher than that needed for a Microsoft OS. Further, properly configured Unix-like systems are much more robust than Microsoft systems. Were Military forces using properly configured and properly secured Unix or Linux systems we would not see items like these below being reported.

Steve Jobs and Openness - Compatible or Incompatible?

Will a future Apple adopt a more generous stance towards openness in computing, coinciding with a wave of sympathy towards the legend?

OpenIndiana With Intel Sandy Bridge?

While Oracle Solaris has Intel KMS/DRI2 support, the Solaris port of this Intel Linux driver code isn't yet part of the open-source Solaris distributions...

First Look: AMD Trinity APU, Linux Already Runs Well

Remember those AMD Bulldozer benchmarks we showed back in March from an early engineering sample that was published to OpenBenchmarking.org by one of AMD's partners months prior to the product launch? Well, since the consumer-grade Bulldozer chips are going to be out soon, AMD's partners are already supplying information on the AMD Trinity APUs that won't be launched until next year. The Linux performance appears quite competitive and there's also some new codenames and details to share.

Someone commented on the article about Google Chrome’s FTP client that they almost thought it was a joke because there was no RSS feed handler in Google Chrome.

Well if that article was a joke this one must be, too.

Review: Kororaa 15 "Squirt"

The KDE edition seems to have regressed in terms of stability, as I thought I'd never see a Plasma crash ever again but I did, while the GNOME edition is just plain annoying.

GNU PDF project leaves FSF High Priority Projects list; mission complete!

We're happy to report that libpoppler, the most common PDF library on GNU/Linux, has matured its support for these and other PDF features -- a move that means every free software user can have PDF software with capabilities that were until recently exclusive to proprietary software.

Linux dark autumn clouds - Bodhi Linux is there!

Not only for Windows, but also for Linux the hour of truth comes near. October-November are months with new releases and upgrades. Let's forget about Windows 8 for now; it's still an early Beta. However Ubuntu 11.10 and Linux Mint 12 will come out soon. So are updated desktops: Gnome and KDE to name but two. It's no secret that I am still not convinced that the Gnome based Gnome 3 shell and Ubuntu's Unity desktops are matured enough to compete with either Windows 8 Beta or Apple's OSX.

What Everyone Is Too Polite to Say About Steve Jobs

In the days after Steve Jobs' death, friends and colleagues have, in customary fashion, been sharing their fondest memories of the Apple co-founder. He's been hailed as "a genius" and "the greatest CEO of his generation" by pundits and tech journalists. But a great man's reputation can withstand a full accounting. And, truth be told, Jobs could be terrible to people, and his impact on the world was not uniformly positive.

Why FSF Founder Richard Stallman is Wrong on Steve Jobs

  • ReadWriteEnterprise; By Joe Brockmeier (Posted by tuxchick on Oct 8, 2011 11:13 AM EDT)
  • Story Type: Editorial; Groups: Community
This is, unfortunately, typical of Stallman – and exactly why the self-appointed leader of the free software movement is the last person who should be spokesperson for anything. He manages to offend common decency by celebrating the absence of a man who contributed enormously to the world of computing, and insult millions of Apple users simultaneously. But I see no argument whatsoever here to persuade Jobs' fans that they should be considering free software. Just a petty expression of relief that a rival is no longer available to compete with Stallman's cause.

How to convert from .deb to .rpm and viceversa

As many of you know the most used packages on GNU/Linux are deb and rpm.

deb is the extension of the Debian software package format and the most often used name for such binary packages. Debian packages are standard Unix ar archives that include two gzipped, bzipped or lzmaed tar archives: one that holds the control information and another that contains the data.

RPM Package Manager (RPM) is a package management system. The name RPM variously refers to the .rpm file format, files in this format, software packaged in such files, and the package manager itself.
