Installing Zope+Plone on Fedora — by daMaestro — last modified Jan 30, 2008 03:46 AM

This guide will help you set up your own Plone site using Zope and Apache on Fedora Core. Zope is capable of acting as a standalone server, but we use Apache and its URL rewriting engine (mod_rewrite) to give us more power and flexibility.

VMware Server Installation — by scott_glaser — last modified Nov 19, 2008 10:54 AM

The free VMware Server is based upon VMware proven virtualization technology. With this robust yet easy to use software you can: Streamline software development and testing by allowing developers to create multiple environments with different operating systems on the same server. Simplify IT testing of patches, new applications and operating systems by allowing systems administrators to test in secure virtual machines and be able to roll back to a clean state by leveraging snapshots. Simplify server provisioning by building a virtual machine once and deploying it multiple times. Evaluate software in ready-to-run virtual machines without installation and configuration. Re-host legacy operating systems such as Windows NT Server 4.0 and Windows 2000 Server in a virtual machine running on new hardware and operating system. Leverage pre-built, ready-to-run virtual appliances that include virtual hardware, operating system and application environments. Virtual appliances for Web, file, print, DNS, email, proxy and other infrastructure services are available for download on VMware Technology Network (VMTN).

Setting up a LAMP stack — by hypodermia — last modified Jan 30, 2008 03:46 AM

The so-called LAMP stack is one of the most compelling reasons to install Linux in the first place and probably the one primary purpose for many Fedora server-based installations. The combination of Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP (or Perl, or even Python) allows webmasters to build websites and run complex applications such as a webmail interface or a wiki.

SSHFS — by strikeforce — last modified Mar 10, 2008 12:52 PM

The idea of sshfs was taken from the SSHFS filesystem distributed with LUFS, which I found very useful. There were some limitations of that codebase, so I rewrote it. Features of this implementation are: * Based on FUSE (the best userspace filesystem framework for linux ;-) * Multithreading: more than one request can be on it's way to the server * Allowing large reads (max 64k) * Caching directory contents This install will explain how to install and mount sshfs. It will give examples of how to mount on boot using the /etc/fstab
