How To Install courier-imap, courier-authlib, And maildrop On Fedora, RedHat, CentOS
Author: Falko Timme • Tags: fedora, centos • Comments: 14How To Install courier-imap, courier-authlib, And maildrop On Fedora, RedHat, CentOS For some reason there are no Courier packages (courier-imap, courier-authlib, maildrop) available on RedHat-based distributions (RedHat, Fedora, CentOS), and the only third-party repository that had such packages seems to have closed (enlartenment.com). Therefore this tutorial explains how you can create and install your own Courier rpm packages from the sources, and I provide download links for my Courier rpm packages that I compiled on Fedora 8 (i386) so that you can save some time.

Server Monitoring With munin And monit On Fedora 7
Author: Falko Timme •
Tags: fedora, monitoring •
Comments: 3 Server Monitoring With munin And monit On Fedora 7 In this article I will describe how you can monitor your Fedora 7 server with munin and monit. munin produces nifty little graphics about nearly every aspect of your server (load average, memory usage, CPU usage, MySQL throughput, eth0 traffic, etc.) without much configuration, whereas monit checks the availability of services like Apache, MySQL, Postfix and takes the appropriate action such as a restart if it finds a service is not behaving as expected. The combination of the two gives you full monitoring: graphics that lets you recognize current or upcoming problems (like "We need a bigger server soon, our load average is increasing rapidly."), and a watchdog that ensures the availability of the monitored services.
