Enabling Compiz Fusion On An OpenSUSE GNOME 10.3 Desktop (ATI Mobility Radeon 9200)
This tutorial shows how you can enable Compiz Fusion
on an OpenSUSE 10.3 GNOME desktop (the system must have a 3D-capable
graphics card – I’m using an ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 here). With
Compiz Fusion you can use beautiful 3D effects like wobbly windows or a
desktop cube on your desktop.
Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier And MySQL (Fedora 8)
This document describes how to install a mail server based on
Postfix that is based on virtual users and domains, i.e. users and
domains that are in a MySQL database. I’ll also demonstrate the
installation and configuration of Courier (Courier-POP3, Courier-IMAP),
so that Courier can authenticate against the same MySQL database
Postfix uses. The resulting Postfix server is capable of SMTP-AUTH and TLS and quota (quota is not built into Postfix by default, I’ll show how to patch your Postfix appropriately). Passwords are stored in encrypted
form in the database (most documents I found were dealing with plain
text passwords which is a security risk). In addition to that, this
tutorial covers the installation of Amavisd, SpamAssassin and ClamAV so that emails will be scanned for spam and viruses.
How To Enable Multiple HTTPS Sites For One IP On Debian Etch Using TLS Extensions
This how-to is Debian specific but could be ported to other
distributions since the concept is the same.
In order to use TLS Extensions we have to patch and recompile apache2
and recompile OpenSSL with the enable-tlsext directive.
Since TLS Extensions are relatively new, some internet browsers will
not work so the apache2 server will deliver just the default site as
http 1.0 does on an http 1.1 server.

How 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.

Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) Samba Standalone Server With tdbsam Backend
This tutorial explains the installation of a Samba fileserver on
Ubuntu 7.10 and how to configure it to share files over the SMB
protocol as well as how to add users. Samba is configured as standalone
server, not as a domain controller. For this setup, I will use the
Ubuntu Server installation CD but the same installation procedure will
work on an Ubuntu desktop as well.
