Idea behind this article is to give a stepwise Howto to newbie in JBoss Application Server, I felt its need when I first started working on JBoss and found it difficult to get such a Howto that can give me comprehensive steps for installing and configuring JBoss Cluster.
The Article covers JBoss 4.2.1 and JRockit 5.0-27.3 cluster on Centos/RHEL 4.4 using VMware.
Cheers!

This document describes how to install a vsftpd server that uses virtual users from a PostgreSQL database instead of real system users. I couldn’t find any tutorial like that on the internet, so when that configuration finally worked for me, I decided to publish it. The documentation is based on FreeBSD 6.2 which I was recently forced to use (I usually use Debian). Nevertheless the document should be suitable for almost any Linux distribution as well (may require very small amendments).
OK, let’s start.

This tutorial provides step-by-step instructions about how to install the free VMware Server on an Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) system. With VMware Server you can create and run guest operating systems (”virtual machines”) such as Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, etc. under a host operating system.
This has the benefit that you can run multiple operating systems on the same hardware which saves a lot of money, and you can move virtual machines from one VMware Server to the next one (or to a system that has the VMware Player which is also free).

This guide will (hopefully) step you through the process of installing a functional Cacti installation on CentOS 4.4 including the Plug-in Architecture, which will allow you to expand your monitoring solution.
There may be other methods of achieving the same results as I will present here today, but for me, this works.
NOTE: This guide assumes that you already have a working LAMP server. If not, then I suggest having a look at “The Perfect Setup - CentOS 4.4 (32-bit) by till”.

Today security is one of the key aspects in our daily life - sometimes conscious, sometimes unconscious. Security has many aspects and one of them is computer security or security of your or your business’ computer data.
In this tutorial I will show how to encrypt a whole disk drive using (X)Ubuntu Feisty, dm-crypt, and LUKS.

In this howto we will install 2 bind dns servers, one as the master and the other as a slave server. For security reasons we will chroot bind9 in its own jail.
Using two servers for a domain is a commonly used setup and in order to host your own domain you are required to have at least 2 domain servers. If one breaks, the other can continue to serve your domain.

This method uses crontab to execute a shell script that downloads an updated urchin.js file every 24 hours and saves it into your local sites directory. Thats it!
The problem occurs when google-analytics.com/urchin.js is requested by billions of web users all over the world at one time, it can cause your sites pages to load at a snails pace. Especially if you are using WordPress or a similar CMS.

I wanted to access the internet over bluetooth instead of GPRS/3G network from my mobile phone (SE K800i). After a lot of searching I couldn’t find a clear explanation as how to accomplish this. I did manage to set it up with Windows XP, using the “Personal Area Network” in the bluetooth utility and doing internet connection sharing. After another fruitless search, I managed to figure out how to make a bluetooth internet profile instead of GPRS or 3G on the phone. Since I work in Linux most of the time, I decided to have a go and do it with Debian, my workstation’s main OS. After spending a few hours, I had it working using the steps below.
