#+TITLE: Server Configuration
|
|
|
|
* Pre-preface
|
|
|
|
Org-mode is amazing but not great for everyone. I will be migrating
|
|
these docs into markdown in the future.
|
|
|
|
* Preface
|
|
|
|
This is a literate shell program written. The formatting is pretty
|
|
straightforward. You can have documentation and code mixed up and make
|
|
nice PDFs but also spit out code. It's good for public projects. It
|
|
looks okay on Github. I'll set it up so that it automatically exports
|
|
a companion shell script in time.
|
|
|
|
Let's set up a tilde.club server!
|
|
|
|
* Base machine
|
|
- A standard unix server, Ubuntu or CentOS.
|
|
- [TK explain servers and server math]
|
|
|
|
* TODO Getting started
|
|
- [ ] Add apropos descriptions for each application?
|
|
|
|
We need to start by installing some basics.
|
|
|
|
First we automatically upgrade the system
|
|
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|
|
echo "Installing basics"
|
|
yum upgrade
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
And we remove Java; it's a beast and it takes a lot of memory and is
|
|
generally a pretty bad citizen on machines that many people share.
|
|
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|
|
echo "Removing java"
|
|
yum uninstall java
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
* Shells
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|
|
yum install zsh
|
|
yum install csh
|
|
yum-config-manager --add-repo http://fishshell.com/files/linux/RedHat_RHEL-6/fish.release:2.repo
|
|
yum install fish
|
|
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
* Data
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|
|
yum install rrdtool
|
|
yum install jq
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Games
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|
|
yum install frotz
|
|
yum install mlmmj
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
I also downloaded and installed nethack. which was a terrible pain and requires much configuration. When we move to Ubuntu it won't be necessary since there's a package so I'm ignoring it for now.
|
|
|
|
* Editors
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|
|
yum install mg vile zile
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
* Usenet
|
|
Slrn is a pain to get working on CentOS.
|
|
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|
|
yum install slang slang-devel slang-static slang-slsh
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
Then download slrn and do a manual install
|
|
|
|
Same with tin
|
|
|
|
Download tin and do a manual install
|
|
No special config
|
|
|
|
* Languages
|
|
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|
|
yum install R
|
|
chmod 700 /usr/bin/java*
|
|
#=end_src bash
|
|
|
|
R is a huge, shitty install that requires, like LaTeX. And Java. And
|
|
AWS wants Java too. Rather than fight the Java virus I just made it
|
|
700 root.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Servers
|
|
Now we install servers, which allow client software to connect and
|
|
issue commands. Each server is like a small computer unto itself.
|
|
|
|
The first server we fetch is Webmin, which is a systems administration
|
|
tool that you can use from the web.
|
|
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|
|
echo "Installing servers"
|
|
echo "1) Webmin"
|
|
yum install perl-Net-SSLeay # (so that webmin uses HTTPS rather than HTTP)
|
|
wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin-1.710-1.noarch.rpm
|
|
rpm -U webmin-1.710-1.noarch.rpm
|
|
echo "2) HTTPD/Apache"
|
|
yum install httpd
|
|
echo "3) Unix Talk"
|
|
yum install talk-server
|
|
echo "4) postfix mail server"
|
|
yum install postfix
|
|
#+end_src
|
|
|
|
** TODO Is postfix even necessary?
|
|
|
|
- [ ] We could just do maildrop.
|
|
- [ ] I do not know.
|
|
|
|
** TODO Log into webmin and set things up?
|
|
|
|
* Applications
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|

yum install emacs

yum install tmux
