Icinga Configuration For Nginx On Debian Wheezy/Ubuntu 11.10
Author: Falko Timme •
Tags: debian, monitoring, nginx, ubuntu, web server •
Comments: 0 Icinga Configuration For Nginx On Debian Wheezy/Ubuntu 11.10 Icinga is an enterprise grade open source monitoring system which keeps watch over networks and any conceivable network resource, notifies the user of errors and recoveries and generates performance data for reporting. It is a fork of Nagios. This tutorial explains how to serve the Icinga Web interface from an nginx server on Debian Wheezy/Ubuntu 11.10 (the tutorial might work for Debian Squeeze as well but I didn't test; Squeeze's Icinga version is a lot older than the versions for Wheezy and Ubuntu 11.10, so there might be small differences).

Setting Up A Linux File Server Using Samba

Tags: samba, storage, ubuntu •
Comments: 18 Setting Up A Linux File Server Using Samba I struggled for ages getting Samba to work reliably and made quite a few wrong turns on the way. I was just trying to set up a simple Linux file server to store music, photos etc. but eventually found a foolproof (probably) way to do it. The following works and has been tested several times on fresh installations. This is not meant to be a high security setup, all folders are accessible to everybody for read, write and delete. If you have stroppy teenagers who want exclusive access to their own area on the server, then you can use this as a starting point. A few simple changes would achieve that level of security but it is beyond the scope of this tutorial.
