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’m officially on mediatemple now and after getting my VPS or (dv) cleansed of plesk I noticed Yum was not installed. I’m planning on doing a full writeup after a few days but for now I’ll get this tutorial on how to install Yum on CentOS 4 out of the way.
First off you’ll need to install a key from the centos mirrors,
# rpm –import http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-4
Next let’s start installing yum,
# rpm -Uvh http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/yum-2.4.3-3.el4.centos.noarch.rpm
Retrieving http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/yum-2.4.3-3.el4.centos.noarch.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libxml2-python is needed by yum-2.4.3-3.el4.centos.noarch

After this rsync is done I’ll be completely on Media Temple (dv). Next up canceling my spry account, posting about setting up a (dv) without plesk and installing yum, and then optimizing the server with zend and caching. Oops, I need to through off site backup in there somewhere too, maybe amazon S3 and a home rsync will work perfect. [Link] (2)
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).

You need to install these packages before we start…
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…
I read this great article [PDF version] yesterday from Linux Format a UK magazine. After reading it I felt fedora was the distro to use specifically for the Xen support and it’s only downfall being it’s package management which could easily be fixed with just using yum. In the same journal was a full spread on fedora; it’s community and future. One wonderful thing to here was the change in direction for packages and dependencies which will help with software being…
