Xen 3 for Debian
by lecyborg & 3 othersSince several years, I build my own network at home, running 2 to 7 machines at the same time (gateway, firewall, workstation, devstation, servers...). In my flat, it produce a lot of noise, take too many space and consume electricty. I decided to stop that, and to run my all network into a single machine, using virtual machine.
The technology that convinced me is Xen.
Create DomU
by lecyborgCreating a Virtual Server - domU
There are 3 options of what to run DomU on:
1. File Based Image
2. LVM Based
3. Physical Partition
1. A file based image is the quickest to setup, however has poor/terrible IO performance. The virtual server is limited to the initial size of the image created also. The file based Image can however be easily mounted in a rescue system, and easily backed-up.
2. LVM for domU is the industry standard. After the initial setup of LVM, as described here, it is a dream to manage. LVM partitions can be resized afterwards!!! Due to this "resizing" capability and flexibility, its use for Xen Virtual Servers is ideal. They also have much better IO performance than file-based. I dont know about mounting these partitions however in a rescue system. Something to try out... -).
3. Physical Partitions have the best IO, but are difficult to alter and inflexible.

Secure Websites Using SSL And Certificates | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials
by camel & 1 otherToday it is possible to create a secure website with relative ease by requiring a client to present a digitally signed certificate. A digitally signed certificate is simply a piece of information that contains data about the subject, public key, dates of validity, identification of the Certificate Authority (CA), and the digital signature. There are typically two ways to go about creating a secure website. First is by the use of a self-signed certificate. The second way is by using a Trusted Certificate signed by a CA.
