I will +1 LVM as well. on top of the above, the LVM caching is pretty slick as well. And so far zfs is also very interesting. On Mon, May 31, 2021 at 2:46 PM Michael Butash via PLUG-discuss < plug-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org> wrote: > I would disagree there is little benefit to using lvm with a s

Re: Home Office PHP Web Server : Reverse Lookup

So, part of this will be because you are connected by cox. its not that you have a specific server but that you are using their DNS for now. as you register your DNS info you have an identity on cox's network. I think this will change once you have a proper DNS responding. I may be wrong on this.

Re: ISPConfig

ISP config is really geared to running an external facing server and become hosting. It's very good for that, but it makes assumptions you may or may not be willing to accept. On Fri, May 7, 2021 at 6:31 PM Keith Smith via PLUG-discuss < plug-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org> wrote: > Hi, > > I am con

Re: Gmail and other services having problems?

Gmail has not been an issue for me, or my company (using Google apps). Makes me wonder if there is some code involved that is causing an issue. Using Vivaldi and chrome there is no issue for me. but they are both chromium. On Thu, Apr 29, 2021 at 6:48 PM Michael Butash via PLUG-discuss < plug-dis

how far into the troubleshooting have you gotten with fedora? looks like you will need to grab firmware and wrap it to make it go round. And plex is nice, but I have gravitated back to kodi and emby as my media center combination. trying to decide if I build it back up or not. https://emby.media/

The closest I have done is enable Linux and set up flatpack. None of the Chromebooks I have had have ever really had the horsepower to run Linux the way I would want. On Thu, Mar 4, 2021 at 8:17 PM Kevin Majka via PLUG-discuss < plug-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org> wrote: > Hi All, > I'm new to Linux
