BASHRC

Set up the BASH CLI with all aliases, functions, etc. => execute:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rogrwhitakr/northern-lights/master/script/setup-profile-on-new-box.bash 

chmod u+x ./setup-profile-on-new-box.bash

./setup-profile-on-new-box.bash

SSH

Set up a basic ssh config file (no keys) => execute:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rogrwhitakr/northern-lights/master/conf/network/ssh/create-ssh-profile.sh 

chmod u+x ./create-ssh-profile.sh

./create-ssh-profile.sh

WHAT IS THAT?

redmine:

• what is webrick exactly?
• what is "rake" exactly?
• what is inetd

WHY IS THAT?

• copying a file from home to root-owned directory /var/www/html makes root the owner? Even if apache user - owns the directory and my user is part of the apache group?

HOW DOES THAT WORK?

• how do i get the owner of the file in uid and guid ids? (find -perm setuid-bit, like on /bin/login program)

APACHE

• How do you measure webserver performance / load?
  • If i use a memcached service layer, how do i initially decide i need one?
  • explainer for mime.types
• Load balancing
• Common Gateway Interface
• CGI programs serve HTML data dynamically based on input passed to them

SYSADMIN

• is it good practice in bash to let traps handle different error conditions, like example?
• local engineering plan -> get a demo one
• service request model (SRM) -> demo one also
• gnome reverse polarity,night vision. same for chrome browser...
• what is switch root service?
• configuration management database (CMDB) provider? capabilities? cost? -> there are a lot (serviceNOW for example, and a lot more)

DONE:

• install sql workbench -> ansible
• what is dbus-broker? -> dbus broker in userspace
• install plotinus -> done in HS, works well (for some programs like nautilus). must be compiled
• have the web server deliver a wiki

TODO:

• ANSIBLE: can ansible do the extension installation for vscode? even for flatpakked vscode?
• BORG: how to put backup back into play?
• BORG: make an extraction script, using the latest backup (or one that can be chosen?). maybe in python?
• systemd cpu cycle control elements => borg consumes everything it can
• what is systemd-nspawn?
• what is busy-box?
• install decode-dimms for trials
• assign static addresses to VM(s) using dnsmasq, while they are ste to dhcp mode/ reserved IPs....
• nac solution vendors. which are there? what do they offer? open source solutions?
• reveal.js what is it?
• download src rpm
• install the kanboard programme. it is small enough
