This article explains how you can install and configure apache2-mpm-peruser on a Debian Etch server. apache2-mpm-peruser is an MPM (Multi-Processing Module) for the Apache 2 web server, very similar to apache2-mpm-itk, but faster (almost as fast as apache2-mpm-prefork). mpm-peruser allows you to run each of your vhosts under a separate UID and GID - in short, the scripts and configuration files for one vhost no longer have to be readable for all the other vhosts. It is based on metuxmpm, a working implementation of the perchild MPM. The result is a sane and secure web server environment for your users, without kludges like PHP's safe_mode.

XBMC [1] signifiait anciennement XBox Media Center mais depuis la sortie de ‘Atlantis’ [2], nom de code donné à sa dernière mouture actuellement en Beta, cela n'est plus vrai. En effet, XBMC devient multi-plateforme et son acronyme devient récursif (XBMC Media Center). XBMC est pour ceux qui ne l'aurait pas encore remarqué un centre multimédia initialement conçu pour ne fonctionner que sur la console de jeux de Microsoft : la Xbox de première génération. Cependant, les utilisateurs souhaitaient pouvoir utiliser leur fabuleux centre multimédia sur d'autres plateformes et donc un gros travail de portage a été lancé. Ce travail abouti maintenant avec une première version Beta disponible d'hors et déjà sur les différentes plateformes concernées [3]. Vous trouverez donc une version "live" à mettre sur CD-ROM ou clé USB, une version Window XP/Vista, une version MacOS X et bien sûre une version pour GNU/Linux. XBMC est toujours disponible pour sa plateforme de prédilection et ne compte pas l'abandonner mais pour des raisons de légalité, il est impossible de fournir le binaire créé à l'aide du kit de développement de la Xbox délivré par Microsoft. Il faut alors acquérir ce kit (de manière plus ou moins légale) et compiler soit même le binaire pour la version Xbox. Au niveau des fonctionnalités, on peut déjà dire que XBMC se base sur de nombreux projets libres pour accomplir ses tâches. Par exemple, MPlayer pour la lecture de nombreux formats audios et vidéos, FFmpeg pour la lecture des DVD, Filezilla pour l'accès FTP, Samba pour le partage de fichiers, etc... Un listing complet des fonctionnalités est disponible en [4]. Vous n'avez donc plus aucune raison pour tester et profiter de ce fabuleux logiciels ;) [1] http://xbmc.org/ [2] http://xbmc.org/blog/2008/09/18/xbmc-atlantis-beta-1-release(...)

Many new admin or Linux users get frustrated when their remote Linux box is not accessible dues to network connectivity. In this article I will try to provide tools and information about how to diagnose network configurations. You can try these tips/tools to diagnose an issue of Linux network connectivity to remote or local servers.

This tutorial provides step-by-step instructions on how to install Xen on an Ubuntu Hardy Heron (Ubuntu 8.04) server system (i386). You can find all the software used here in the Ubuntu repositories, so no external files (apart from a fixed Ubuntu Xen kernel to enable networking for the virtual machines) or compilation are needed.

This tutorial shows how to set up a two-node Apache web server cluster that provides high-availability. In front of the Apache cluster we create a load balancer that splits up incoming requests between the two Apache nodes. Because we do not want the load balancer to become another "Single Point Of Failure", we must provide high-availability for the load balancer, too. Therefore our load balancer will in fact consist out of two load balancer nodes that monitor each other using heartbeat, and if one load balancer fails, the other takes over silently.

First and foremost, be prepared to have some patience when trying to get a USB cam to work under Linux. In trying to get mine to work, I searched many a newsgroup thread only to find there was only one message in the thread, the original question stating the problem. i.e. no one had an answer for the person who posted the question so you may be on your own trying to get your cam to work. Often times the same camera model will use different drivers for different sub-models (ex: not all QuickCam Express sub-models use the same driver). However, my trials and tribulations were a good learning experience and I'll share what I learned here to hopefully make your setup easier.

Openfiler is a powerful, intuitive browser-based network storage software distribution. Openfiler ScreenshotsOpenfiler delivers file-based Network Attached Storage and block-based Storage Area Networking in a single framework.

This guide explains how to set up mod_geoip with Apache2 on a Debian Etch system. mod_geoip looks up the IP address of the client end user. This allows you to redirect or block users based on their country. You can also use this technology for your OpenX (formerly known as OpenAds or phpAdsNew) ad server to allow geo targeting.

djbdns is a very secure suite of DNS tools that consists out of multiple parts: dnscache, a DNS cache that can be used in /etc/resolv.conf instead of your ISP's name servers and that tries to sort out wrong (malicious) DNS answers; axfrdns, a service that runs on the master DNS server and to which the slaves connect for zone transfers; and tinydns, the actual DNS server, a very secure replacement for BIND.
