It's sort of cheating, and wouldn't allow you to upload to the Debian archive, but for personal/internal use something like FPM might work.

Re: ThinkPad fan
On 17/06/2016 10:58, Francesco Montanari wrote: I recently installed Jessie on a Lenovo ThinkPad T420. The fan usage looks reasonable. However, high temperatures (96 C) are reached when CPUs are running intensively for more than one minute or so. The fan speed at those temperatures is about 4500 rpm. Back when I had a ThinkPad, I found it would shut itself down at around that temperature. I also found that 4500 RPM isn't exactly the highest speed the fan can run. I wrote https://github.com/theothertom/thinkpad-temp_mon to control the fan and have it spin faster over 80C. Before you have a go, note that I've not touched that code in >4 years (and don't have a thinkpad any more), so it might take a bit of poking before it works.

The man pages and other docs I've read don't discuss the difference/relationship between IrDa and LIRC. It's been a while since I looked into this, so someone might prove me wrong but as I understand it IrDA and general remote-control type IR are different and incompatible. IrDA on a laptop is (as far as a PC in concerned) a serial port, while an IR sender/receiver is a generic device. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Is it posible to maintain a secure server using a single user with several websites? It is possible, though it's kinda down to how much you trust the code for each site. Running each under it's own user (using suPHP or similar) does limit damage if one of the sites turns out to be insecure. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

What information are you looking to get from the output of a config run ?
IMHO, if you are using configuration management software the process
should be kinda as follows:
Have a method of creating consistent base installs (for Debian, probably
preseed).
Create clean machine based on that.
Run configuration management tool.
Profit.
btw, if i could take lvm, zfs, and virtualbox snapshots with whatever
software i use, that would be cool too :)
Again, my opinion, but there should be no need to take snapshots of the
result of running any config management tool, as the canonical version
of your boxes can be created using said tool
comments? suggestions?
I'm mostly familiar with Puppet, and use it extensively. Something I've
found is that your first couple of attempts will probably not be ideal.
A large part of the config management puzzle is getting your
abstractions in the right place.
For example, it is fairly easy to copy /etc into file resources in
Puppet and push them to several machines. Ideally, there should be as
little machine specific configuration as possible.
Kinda like this:
httpd_config = {
'MPM' = 'prefork',
'StartServers' = '10',
'MinSpareServers' = '15',
'MaxSpareServers' = '25',
'ServerLimit' = '256',
'MaxClients' = '256',
'MaxRequestsPerChild' = '4000',
'Port' = '8000'
}
and using variables to put those values into config files and overriding
as appropriate rather than having multiple versions of files.
Hope that gives you a couple of pointers.
