Hi. I ended up removing the eBox components I don't need, in order to have a clean system, running and having installed just what I need. I've removed mail services, proxy services, traffic shappers, etc... Before aprove the machine to go to the production environment, I did a nmap and for my surprise, I saw squid and mail (imap, smtp, etc...) ports opened and the respective services listening, althrough I had removed them via the eBox management interface. Then, I log into the machine (SSH) and did a "apt-get install htop" and the following came up:
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libconvert-binhex-perl bind9 libarchive-tar-perl courier-imap courier-authlib-ldap sasl2-bin gamin libtree-perl db4.6-util courier-ldap clamav libmail-spf-perl unzoo clamav-freshclam tftpd-hpa libsocket6-perl libnetaddr-ip-perl clamav-base libconvert-uulib-perl courier-imap-ssl postfix-ldap libclamav3 spamassassin libarchive-zip-perl libmime-tools-perl libgamin0 courier-pop libfile-temp-perl courier-ssl arj libgmp3c2 expect libio-stringy-perl courier-base clamav-daemon dhcp3-server openbsd-inetd libio-zlib-perl libnet-dns-perl squid-common dansguardian libconvert-tnef-perl courier-authlib-userdb courier-authlib libnet-server-perl tcl8.4 libmime-perl squid libunix-syslog-perl libio-multiplex-perl libnet-cidr-perl libberkeleydb-perl amavisd-new libdigest-hmac-perl libversion-perl libesmtp5 libsys-hostname-long-perl courier-authdaemon courier-pop-ssl Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. So, I've got 2 questions: 1 - Can I do the autoremove without criple my system? If somehow later, I have the need to install the services I removed before, would this packages be automaticly installed? 2 - In the software removal scripts that the internal ebox process uses, could you substitute the command "apt-get remove" for "apt-get autoremove"? This way there won't be any lost packages laying around the system, using ressources and doing nothing... Cheerz
