NginX Webmin Module Update

Finally got around to making some changes to the NginX Webmin module. Thanks so much to Mike Andreasen over at guides.wp-bullet.com (wp-bullet.com

Nginx Webmin Module 0.08

Another update to the Webmin NginX module. It now supports CentOS, FreeBSD, and Solaris. Get more information here: http://www.justindhoffman.com/project/nginx-webmin-module

Webmin Nginx Module 0.06 Release

This update makes the module start/stop/restart NginX properly again. No other updates yet. But I am working on links to the other configuration files for NginX and more UI-friendly handling of the virtual servers. Download the update here.

The module is now also listed on the webmin third-party modules page. http://www.webmin.com/cgi-bin/search_third.cgi?search=nginx

Updating Debian with fresh install on new drive

The following are the steps I take update Debian by making a fresh install on a clean drive.

Create a drive. There's plenty around to explain this step if you're not sure.

Format and mount the drive.

mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1 #enter your drive here
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt

Install deboostrap and bootstrap the system using your arch and preferred distrobution. Mount proc and dev.

Update your dynamic IP with Afraid.org

Say you run a server of some kind at home and you don't have a static IP (who wants to pay the extra cash?), and you need the IP to update after your router restarts. It's simple with afraid.org and a bash script run by the cron system. This is the bash script:

Webmin Nginx Module Beta Release

It's finally here! A beta version for the Webmin Nginx Module has been released. I've posted it here for everyone to download. Hopefully someone will find it useful. It's obviously in need of some more work, but it's a start and I believe fills a hole in the current webmin module situation. I would also be nice to get ideas for other features people may wish to see in the future.

Nginx nearing beta

I know some people are excited about the nginx webmin module I'm working on. I'd just like to give a quick update about the status of the module. I can't say when the first release will happen, or how well it'll work on systems other than Debian at this point, but I'm loosely hoping for the end of this week. Maybe June 11. 2010. You can view the project page here: nginx module.

Currently, the module can:

Backup images of root and home filesystems

This is a nice way to make a backup of your root and home filesystems - at least this is how I get it done. Before you read on, I'll say that the home files are on a different mounted drive than the root files. These are also LVM2 drives. First I check the drive that will get the final partimage files. Then I mount the spare drive to be used by partimage. This allows me to never unmount the root and home filesystems. Then I unmount the spare drive and check it. Next I make the partimage copy or delete the tmp file if it fails. Last I delete images older than 25 days and unmount.

Split APE images into ogg files and add tags from CUE

Turning your APE whole disc into single ogg files with ID3 tags is easy and takes only a few steps. You'll need the following programs to complete this tutorial: cuetools, shntool, vorbis-tools.

aptitude install cuetools shntool vorbis-tools

First, move into the folder with the APE disc. Second, split the disc into tracks.
