Following on from my previous notes, here’s some more. Again, if this isn’t interesting exits are located to the front, rear and sides. You may have to go backwards to reach the nearest exit.
apt-get install postfix procmail
Copy the main.cf file over, then as a test send a mail to an external address using “mail”.
# See /usr/share/postfix/main.cf.dist for a commented, more complete version # Debian specific: Specifying a file name will cause the first # line of that file to be used as the name. The Debian default # is /etc/mailname. #myorigin = /etc/mailname smtpd_banner = $myhostname ESMTP $mail_name (Ubuntu) biff = no # appending .domain is the MUA's job. append_dot_mydomain = no # Uncomment the next line to generate "delayed mail" warnings #delay_warning_time = 4h readme_directory = no # TLS parameters smtpd_tls_cert_file=/etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem smtpd_tls_key_file=/etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key smtpd_use_tls=yes smtpd_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtpd_scache smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:${data_directory}/smtp_scache # See /usr/share/doc/postfix/TLS_README.gz in the postfix-doc package for # information on enabling SSL in the smtp client. myhostname = home.piku.org.uk alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases myorigin = /etc/mailname mydestination = home.piku.org.uk, smeg.piku.lan, localhost.piku.lan, localhost relayhost = mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8 [::ffff:127.0.0.0]/104 [::1]/128 mailbox_command = procmail -a "$EXTENSION" mailbox_size_limit = 0 recipient_delimiter = + inet_interfaces = all
Gmail backups
apt-get install getmail4
Using the gmail-backup script which is in /data/backups/scripts/gmail-backup.sh
nano -w /etc/cron.d/james
Add the following:
7,17,27,37,47,57 * * * * james /data/backups/scripts/gmail-backup.sh
Automated backup scripts
nano -w /etc/cron.d/james
Add the following:
40 04 * * * james /data/backups/scripts/master-backup.sh
Then visudo and:
james ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/bin/tar james ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/rsync
Mysql (2)
Since I’m using the AutoMySQLBackup script now, rather than dumping the entire database, restoring requires a little more effort. The following for each table to restore should do it, including the “mysql” table.
bzip2 -dc gallery2_2010-06-25_04h42m.Friday.sql.bz2 | mysql -u root -p
Don’t forget to do a “mysql_upgrade –force -p” too at the end.
Firefly/mt-daapd media server
apt-get install mt-daapd
Copy the /etc/mt-daapd.conf file from backup and restart the service… There is more information in this blog post.
Cacti
After installing Cacti, installing the database tables and making sure the apache config is correct seems to be enough. Also install snmpd and copy the config file from backup. If you’ve done this right, the graphs should appear (but will be empty, which is probably for the best, it’s a new server after all). Graphs not appearing means snmpd isn’t working.
TorrentfluxB4rt
Copy /etc/torrentflux from backup, symlink the apache config file into /etc/apache2/conf.
Copy the modified transmission from /usr/local/bin (if you don’t have these – i.e you’re not me – then details on how to create them are on this blog)
Logwatch
apt-get install logwatch
Screen
This should be safe inside your home directory, but here is the .screenrc
hardstatus alwayslastline "%{.bW}%-w%{.rW}%n %t%{-}%+w %=%{..G} %H %{..Y} %Y/%m/%d %0c:%s "
vbell off
nonblock on
I think that’ll do for now.
