This somewhat requires you’ve followed my suggestions on not committing yourself to a certain host or your own DNS or mail servers, if not the extra steps might take you 10 more minutes, maybe days.
There are plenty of ways to migrate to a new server depending on how you’ve setup the server or your host, these are just to show the simplicity of my migrations after following the post linked above.
Step 1:
Rsync your other server’s files to the new…
One of the first things I did on my Media Tempe (dv) was install webmin because I’m a huge fan of easy it let’s you manage your web/server, e.g. web interface to quickly change config files or restart particular services without having to login through SSH.
A more official description:
Webmin is a web-based interface for system administration for Unix. Using any modern web browser, you can setup user accounts, Apache, DNS, file sharing and much more. Webmin removes the need to…
I think I’ve finally finished getting all of my themes and plugins straightened out on my site. It turns out Trac isn’t very user friendly when it comes to getting people to download. I ended up using a downloads plugin to help manage the downloads through wordpress itself. At least this way I don’t have to worry about having beta or bleeding edge updates on the main trunk where people would download them. One problem I’m having is svn is…
Went ahead and posted a very long how-to on SVN, Trac, Apache and Fedora. Thanks Google! [Link] (0)
For some reason or another I could not find good documentation on installing Subversion and Trac on fc6 while also using Apache so I’ve simply just documented what I’ve learned and just implemented on my own system.
This tutorial is about the installation of a development enviroment on FC6 it’s not a how-to for using it. If you need to know more I recommend reading Version Control with Subversion (I just ordered it).
Requirements
You need to install these packages before we start…
Apache keeps crashing and I don’t have the time right now to figure it out. If my sites are down for the next few days, oh well. #
One of my tasks this week was to setup a web server for some sites currently hosted on the tragedy of the grid. I don’t want to talk about the (mt) grid since I’ve said so much about it before but to answer “why?” I’m still on the grid for production sites is, I’ve been too busy to migrate them and at one point I was going to put them on a spry VPS but my DB was too large for their…
How to manually hardlink multiple files to point to one single file. This will drastically help you if you have multiple files that are all the same because instead of editing all of the files you just need to edit one.
This is the command that I ran
#find . -name ‘FiletoFind.txt’ -exec ln -f newfile_hardlink.txt {} \;
FiletoFind.txt is the file name that you want to search for. newFile_hardlink.txt is the file you want all the files to look at after they…

I finally found a reason for my dyndns account. And what’s cool is all I need to do is edit my apache to a non-blocked port (by time warner) and I can have another webhost but this time at my house for dev. Also, my router will automatically updates dyndns for me.
