That makes sense. :)
When I what to accept only localhost connections on my HTTP port, I prefer to
configure nginx instead of iptables. I set nginx to listen only to localhost.
I have another family member on the LAN with his Losedows7 hardcore game
machine. I want to set up a household wiki so we can communicate without
having to walk to opposite ends of the house or happen to run into each other
with our varied schedules. So I'll want a port that is open to local
I learned by starting from a basic config file and figured things from there.
You should use http://nginx.org/en/docs/ to help you with this. Most things
are explained in http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html.
Your main config file is /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and you don't
Wow, that's very helpful Mampir, I will install nginx for sure once I get my
screen resolution problem figured out. Don't want to install any more
packages in case I decide to start over with a fresh install. Once I get that
fixed and install nginx your post will give me a great starting
About iptables, why are you setting those rules? It seems pointless to me.
It doesn't give you any security. A connection on a given port can't happen,
if there aren't any programs listening there. Maybe I'm reading the rules
wrong since I rarely use iptables.
I like to run MySQL and
About the init system, Trisquel uses Upstart and the /etc/init directory is
the main place where you configure startup scripts/jobs. The old System V
init scripts still exist in /etc/init.d and /etc/rc?.d directories because
they are still in the process of being moved to Upstart.
It is
re A question - I guess my question was if there is just one approved
repository with trisquel. Looks like I go to
http://nl.archive.trisquel.info/trisquel in synaptic. If that's the way it is
then great, it's working almost everything I've wanted so far I have found.
I've been mostly a
There is just one repository. It's divided in separate distributions (e.g.
belenos, belenos-updates, belenos-security and belenos-backports). And
mirrored around the world.
Glad to hear things seem to be working.
Ola!
re lighttpd, no, I didn't see it in synaptic. I wanted to get a household
wiki going so I moved on and went with apache. After scratching my head so
many hours I was almost bleeding I got usemod-wiki working. Yeah! I think I
tried lighttpd before with some success so I will look into
Trisquel will move to Systemd at its next release (which will be close to a
carbon copy of of the corresponding Ubuntu version which should be 16.04
which should use systemd).
Thanks Lembas,
It seems like lack of up to date, easy to read documentation is a condition
that affects all of GnuLinux. So many lovers of free software are into
hacking (not in that bad sense necessarily), programing and networking
keeping the software moving along bridging obstacles,
Yeah welcome! I think you'll find Trisquel a pretty great distro as a freedom
lover.
There is not too much documentation available but most ubuntu guides will
work, just be careful if they suggest you install something outside of the
repos. (Also the quality of many ubuntu guides ...
Welcome to the community!
Up until this morning I had never heard of trisquel and now it has taken
space on my hard drive next to Centos7 and Fedora21. Since I am an idealist
with a deep love of free and open speech, I am hoping that trisquel will
become my main OS.
My install went very smoothly and a look at
Muchas gracias tdlinux! Welcome much appreciated.
I see I am back to init and iptables, is that right? Centos and Fedora are
moving to systemd and firewalld and I was just starting to get the hang of
iptables. I read that debian was also moving to systemd, is that going to
happen to
