View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Servers :: Building PC For Sole Purpose Of Personal Proxy / Security Server
May 30, 2010I don't care so much the practicality and needlessness of actually setting up a computer for proxy server for personal usage, but none-the-less, i want to do it, and i'm just wondering about hardware.The proxy, i don't intend on having a desktop environment, so it'll be a terminal interface.But for a system that will handle traffic for 3 pc's and a ps3, how much hardware would one suggest i need, as far as RAM, HDD space, so on and so forth.
I was thinking it would be fun to do with with my old amd k6-2 processor and it's 32mb of ram, but in order for that pc to work, i'll need to replace a few hardware pieces, and before i dumb money into it and pull it out of the closet, i want to find out if it would even be worth my time to do it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: What's The Purpose Of A Boot Partition?
Jan 17, 2010I've always been confused about this issue of boot partitions. In the past when I install linux I usually have 2-3 partitions.
1. Main OS partition mounted on /
2. Storage partition mounted on /home
3. Swap partition
Why and when would I need to have a boot partition? Even if I dual boot two OSs, I just make one more partition for that other OS. So what's the purpose of a boot partition?
General :: Purpose Of Shebang In Scripts?
Oct 15, 2009Can you explain me what is purpose of shebang in scripts? I have noticed that my scripts will run without shebang. i.e. When i save my crontab file it says that scripts will be executed in i.e. /bin/sh shell. So, what is the point if I put #!/bin/ksh at the start of script?

Jun 7, 2010I attempted to run various cron jobs as root - just general server make-tidy stuff. But if I edit the /etc/crontab file directly, these tasks don't get run. However, if I use crontab -e as root, these jobs appear to work. Any idea why this might be the case? Also, I understand that user cron jobs are stored in /var/spool/cron/<user> (including root). If this is the case, what's the purpose of the /etc/crontab file?

Jan 14, 2010I have a folder that may contain text documents, pictures, MP3s, video clips, all sorts of stuff. Supposing that, within reason, I'm not too bothered how long it takes to compress and uncompress them. And suppose I don't care if it's free or open source (well, has to be free as in beer). What's the best compression format/algorithm (whatever it is that I install in Synaptic and choose from the drop down menu in the compression tool) I should use?

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Creating A General Purpose Switch?
Apr 19, 2011I want to create a general switch that I can use to send a signal to my ubuntu server when it is activated/deactivated. Here's an example: I want to know when a certain door is open, so I can have a switch closed when the door is closed and opened when the door is opened. When opened or closed, the computer will receive a signal and I can have some software intercept this signal and process it to my liking (i.e. ring a bell/text message me/email me/etc).
I know I will have to create a simple driver, software to make use of this signal, etc... I am willing to do whatever it takes to make it happen. I'm just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction as far as which interface I should use to communicate with my server (i.e. usb, serial), which references I should read, and any personal experience you have with something like this...
