Useful docs:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-6c942d1939d97331f96e42b63774003fde7daed5
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
http://christer.homeip.net/
a.) add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list
# Seveas Packages - ubuntulinux mirror - w32codecs, etc.
deb http://mirror.ubuntulinux.nl edgy-seveas all
deb-src http://mirror.ubuntulinux.nl edgy-seveas all
b.) Add the key
wget http://mirror.ubuntulinux.nl/1135D466.gpg -O- | \
sudo apt-key add -
c.) Install stuff
apt-get update
apt-get install libdvdcss2 w32codecs googleearth
apt-get dist-upgrade
10.) Remove the crappy java
apt-get remove java-gcj-compat
11.) For machines doing mono work:
apt-get install mono mono-devel monodevelop monodevelop-boo monodevelop-java monodevelop-nunit monodevelop-query monodevelop-versioncontrol monodoc glade
12.) For machines which need to vpn into places
- Add the following lines to /etc/apt/sources.list
# James Cameron's PPTP GUI packaging
deb http://quozl.netrek.org/pptp/pptpconfig ./
apt-get update
apt-get install pptpconfig
13.) This item was removed
14.) Optional, set up lm sensors:
- howto is here:
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2780
- install sensor reading packages:
sudo apt-get install lm-sensors
- run the mkdev.sh script (look in /usr/local/apps/lm_sensors)
- find your sensors; run sensors-detect and answer a lot of YES
- questions to probe for sensors. This will generate a list of what you
- need to do to make it work. Do that.
- Reboot
- Run sensors to test it. Gkrellm can read the sensors
- config lives in /etc/sensors.conf. This can be used to modify the scales
- and such
15.) (thinkpad laptop only) Scale down the CPU so it stops overheating:
- edit /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf and make the following changes:
CONTROL_CPU_FREQUENCY=1
LM_AC_CPU_MAXFREQ=1200000
NOLM_AC_CPU_MAXFREQ=1200000
NOLM_AC_CPU_GOVERNOR=ondemand
- then do:
sudo /etc/init.d/laptop-mode restart
##################### PHASE 1 SET UP SECTION #########################
1.) Set up static IP's (for machines with them)
- edit /etc/network/interfaces, and add lines like:
auto iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.254
- Comment out any extra useless lines
- Reboot
2.) Make ssh work:
## For an old machine, use the old keys - you did save /etc, didn't you?
## For a new machine, use the existing keys generated by the distro.
## For both, tweak ssh_config/sshd_config as necessary
- in sshd_config, set:
PermitRootLogin no
- in ssh_config, set:
ForwardX11 yes
ForwardX11Trusted yes
- You need to restart this for changes to take effect
/etc/init.d/ssh restart
3.) Set up /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny:
- hosts.allow:

3.) Add important modules to /etc/modules
vfat
- for machines with 3ware cards
3w-xxxx
##################### DOMAIN MEMBER SET UP SECTION #########################
1.) /etc/hosts
- add hosts to /etc/hosts as appropriate
- for machines with static IP's, use that IP and delete it from the localhost
- line
- If using a multihomed host, you should probably use the private IP
for the canonical hostname, so that NFSv4 clientaddr lookups are
automatically resolved.
2.) Set up lvm2 (for machines using it)
## For machines with new lvm groups:
- create any partitions you want (I'm using /dev/sda1 here)
emerge lvm2
mkdir /etc/lvm
echo 'devices { filter=["r/cdrom/"] }' > /etc/lvm/lvm.conf
vgscan
pvcreate /dev/sda1
vgcreate vg /dev/sda1
- create bits with
lvcreate -LsizeG -nname vg
- where size is the size and name is the name these are now accessible
- through /dev/vg/name file systems can be made through
mke2fs -j -m0 -v /dev/vg/name
tune2fs -c0 -i0 /dev/vg/name
- 'vgs' can be used to show your volume groups
(sizes and free and all that)
- make mount points, add the bits to /etc/fstab and mount them
## For machines with existing lvm groups:
- generate the vg's
vgscan
- make sure all is okay (pv = physical volume, lv = logical volume)
pvscan
lvscan
- if it looks okay, enable the lv's. For each one reported by lvscan:
lvchange -a y /dev/vg/pathname
- once all are active, do:
vgmknodes
## to resise:
- lvdisplay and vgdisplay are useful to look at things
lvextend /dev/vg/home -l+number_of_extents
- or
lvextend /dev/vg/home -L+sizeMGK
- will resize
- resize2fs to resize the fs...
3.) This item was removed
4.) Set up NIS server:
### Add to hosts:
- Make sure the server and all clients are in /etc/hosts. This means things
- will still work if DNS dies or anything else bad happens.
### Get the bits you need. When asked, enter the name of your domain:
apt-get install nis
### Set things up:
- edit /etc/default/nis, and change the following:
NISSERVER=master
- edit /etc/yp.conf and add the line:
domain fnord server yt
- edit /etc/defaultdomain and add the line:
fnord
- (this is not necessary if you set it up when the package was installed)
- edit /var/yp/Makefile set it up. It is well commented.
- NOTES:
- MINGID should be set to 1 in order to propagate the groups (cdrom,
- floppy, games, etc) correctly on all machines.
- All I changed was the MINGID, the rest was fine
- edit /etc/ypserv.securenets and add lines to restrict to domain
- members. I use lines like:
host 192.168.9.1
host 192.168.9.6
- Make sure to comment out the 0.0.0.0 line
- To build the DB for the first time, run:
/usr/lib/yp/ypinit -m
- and follow the instructions (the one server is fine)
- This will throw some errors. It's okay.
- restart portmap and nis
/etc/init.d/portmap restart
/etc/init.d/nis restart
- NOTE: I had some problems with portmap stopping/releasing the IP
- address. Try kill -9ing it. If that doesn't work, try rebooting.
- if you change people's passwords or something, do
make -C /var/yp
- To test do:
ypcat passwd
5.) Set up NIS client:
### A note about administration:
- Since there is no root user, make sure that whomever you want to be
- able to admin the machine is in /etc/sudoers on the client
- machine. It is also a good idea to have those users as local users on the
- machine, with the SAME UID as is shared over NIS.
### Add to hosts:
- Make sure the server is in /etc/hosts. This means things
- will still work if DNS dies or anything else bad happens.
### Get the bits you need. When asked, enter the name of your domain:
apt-get install nis
### Set things up:
- edit /etc/passwd and add the following line at the end:
+::::::
- edit /etc/group and add the following line at the end:
+:::
- edit /etc/shadow and add the following line at the end:
+::::::::
- edit /etc/yp.conf and add the line:
domain fnord server yt
- edit /etc/defaultdomain and add the line:
fnord
- restart nis:
/etc/init.d/nis restart
- NOTE: sshd will have to be restarted to use the new authentication
- scheme
/etc/init.d/sshd restart
6.) Set up NFS server:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NFSv4Howto
### Get the bits you need:
apt-get install nfs-common nfs-kernel-server
### Create the base share directory and mount points
mkdir /export
mkdir /export/home
mkdir /export/pub
mkdir /export/usr_local
### Edit fstab and add the lines to bind to this directory
/home /export/home none bind 0 0
/pub /export/pub none bind 0 0
/usr/local /export/usr_local none bind 0 0
# mount those
mount -a
### Add to netgroups:
- Edit /etc/netgroup and add a line like:
boxen (yt,,) (case,,)
- Do:
make -C /var/yp
### In /etc/default/nfs-kernel-server we set:
NEED_SVCGSSD=no
### In /etc/default/nfs-common we set:
NEED_IDMAPD=yes
NEED_GSSD=no
### edit /etc/exports and add shares, like:
/export @boxen(ro,fsid=0,sync)
/export/home @boxen(rw,nohide,sync)
/export/pub @boxen(rw,nohide,sync)
/export/usr_local @boxen(rw,nohide,sync)
- Then do:
exportfs -ra
- Restart it:
/etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart
7.) Set up NFS client:
- in /etc/fstab
# device mountpoint fs-type options dump fsckorder
yt:/home /home nfs4 rw,hard,intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 \ 0 0
yt:/pub /pub nfs4 rw,hard,intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 \ 0 0
yt:/usr_local /usr/local nfs4 rw,hard,intr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768 \ 0 0
- edit /etc/default/nfs-common and set
NEED_IDMAPD=yes
- Make the mount points
- Mount them with:
mount -a

10.0.9.0/24
- edit /etc/default/portsentry and change the modes to:
TCP_MODE="atcp"
UDP_MODE="audp"
- restart it
/etc/init.d/portsentry restart
9.) set up smbmount
chmod u+s /usr/bin/smbmnt
chmod u+s /usr/bin/smbumount
10.) This item was removed
11.) ntpd
## for standalone (laptop):

12.) set up messages
- edit /etc/issue to have a nice message
rm issue.net
ln -s issue issue.net
13.) GDM
- Configure it safely with gdmsetup's "security" tab, turn off the annoying
- sounds, don't show the actions menu, etc.
14.) cups
- Set cups-pdf setuid root
chmod +s /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf
- so cups-pdf works
- add printers with gnome-cups-manager
- don't forget to add pdf printer support. It's a Generic PostScript Printer
- prints go into ~/PDF/
- Under "Global Settings" check "Detect Lan Printers"
- If you want to share printers, then
- Under "Global Settings" check "Share Lan Printers"
15.) Remove gdm on servers to X doesn't start:

17.) This item was removed.
18.) This item was removed.
19.) Set up paper size
- edit /etc/papersize
- set it to: letter
20.) Restore boot after kubuntu is installed:
sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so
sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r`
21.) Config VPN client
sudo pptpconfig
should be self explanatory
22.) Install doom wads
cd /usr/share/games/doom
sudo rm doom2.wad
sudo ln -s /usr/share/games/freedoom/doom2.wad ./doom2f.wad
sudo ln -s /usr/local/games/games/datafiles/doom/* .

sudo update-rc.d mail_tunnel start 99 2 6 S .
sudo /etc/init.d/mail_tunnel start
24.) Install munin-node on all servers
sudo apt-get install munin-node
- allow the monitoring server to connect:
allow ^192\.168\.9\.1$
- set them to monitor eth1 (if applicable)
cd /etc/munin/plugins
sudo cp -d if_err_eth0 if_err_eth1
sudo cp -d if_eth0 if_eth1
- restart munin
sudo /etc/init.d/munin-node restart
25.) Install munin on monitoring server
sudo apt-get install munin
(remember, it needs apache installed too)
- edit the config file to hit all machines
- info:
http://www.howtoforge.com/server_monitoring_monit_munin
26.) Set up /etc/iftab nicely
eth0 mac 00:02:b3:98:df:65 arp 1
eth1 mac 00:e0:81:20:90:f6 arp 1
This forces assignments of interface to MAC address
27.) Install BOINC on appropriate machines
sudo apt-get install boinc-client boinc-manager
- Set it up using boincmgr
- Follow instructions; it's easy.
- You can see things in boincmgr (graphics, etc)
28.) set up subversion (work machines only)
sudo apt-get install esvn kdesvn subversion
29.) set up rsnapshot
- edit /etc/cron.d and set the stuff to work like:
# min hour day month week
0 */4 * * * root /usr/bin/rsnapshot hourly
30 3 * * * root /usr/bin/rsnapshot daily
0 3 * * 1 root /usr/bin/rsnapshot weekly
30 2 1 * * root /usr/bin/rsnapshot monthly
- (this assumes that rsnapshot is going to make a backup every 4
- hours, and therefore hourly is set to something like 6.. I set up the
- intervals to be):
interval hourly 6
interval daily 7
interval weekly 4
interval monthly 6
##################### OTHER MISC NOTES SECTION #########################
1.) set up public key authentication
- (note: this assumes that you don't already have an
- authorized_keys file on the remote host. If you do you'll
- need to add the contents of id_dsa.pub to the end of it,
- rather than replacing it with id_dsa.pub as I do below)
- Generate a key:
ssh-keygen -t dsa -f ~/.ssh/identity
- (don't set a passphrase for passwordless auth)
- SSH to your remote host, and add the identity.pub to that
- machine's ~/.ssh/authorized_keys (or just copy it)
2.) to set DVD region code (only necessary once, per drive, EVER!!!)
- (indeed, most of them can only be set a few times before, they're
- locked forever. Be honest)
apt-get install regionset
- MAKE SURE THERE IS A VIDEO DVD IN THE DRIVE and (as root) do:
regionset
- set it to region 1, and use the mask it calculates. It will
- probably even tell you how many changes you have left
3.) Default browser/mail/etc
- can set default browser by doing:
gnome-control-center
- then going to Advanced -> Preferred Applications
4.) Group admin
gpasswd is used to administer /etc/group
5.) you can dump the list of people in the samba db's by doing:
sudo tdbdump /var/lib/samba/passdb.tdb
- for what good it does you
6.) dpkg-reconfigure is useful for reconfiguring stuff
example:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
7.) update-alternatives is useful when playing with different
alternative things
example:
sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so
- Of course, in the above case, you need to rebuild the initramfs to make
it all work:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r`
8.) Clean out cache periodically
sudo apt-get autoclean
- clean out stale packages
sudo apt-get autoremove
9.) Set up apache
sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 php5-cli php-pear php-db
- edit /etc/apache2/mods-available/userdir.conf and add "Indexes" to the
- AllowOverride line, so that it looks like:
AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit Indexes
- edit /etc/apache2/ports.conf and change:
Listen 80
- to
Listen 127.0.0.1:80
10.) mysql
sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.0 phpmyadmin
11.) Beagle
- add /usr/bin/beagled to autostarted applications
- /usr/bin/beagle-search runs the query tool
12.) Set up Xen
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenOnEdgy
- DOES NOT WORK ON LAPTOPS (no ACPI support)
(a) install stuff
sudo apt-get install xen-hypervisor-3.0-i386 xen-image-xen0-2.6.17-5-generic-xen0 xen-utils-3.0
sudo mkinitramfs -o /boot/xen0-linux-2.6.17-5-generic-xen0.initrd.img 2.6.17-5-generic-xen0
(b) edit /etc/initramfs-tools/hooks/xensupport and put in:
#!/bin/sh -e
. /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions
force_load xenblk
- then
sudo chmod u+x /etc/initramfs-tools/hooks/xensupport
(c) add the following to /boot/grub/menu.lst, above the automagic section
title XEN/2.6.17-5
root (hd0,1)
kernel /xen-3.0-i386.gz
module /xen0-linux-2.6.17-5-generic-xen0 root=UUID=8a7e0bad-8914-4547-a1ba-b51c8c7ce22f ro quiet splash
module /xen0-linux-2.6.17-5-generic-xen0.initrd.img
(d) edit /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp and comment out:
(network-script network-dummy)
- and add:
(network-script network-bridge)
(f) Reboot
13.) Set up wine
wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
# add wine repos
deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt edgy main
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
############ OLD #####################
3.) Set up IPSec:
apt-get install ipsec-tools
- set up an /etc/ipsec-tools.conf which should contain sections like:
---------------------------
###### connections of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.2 ######
# AH SAs using 128 bit long keys
add 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 ah 0x010 -A hmac-md5
0x8c4708518e279fa02362564358550777;
add 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.1 ah 0x011 -A hmac-md5
0x2e6893cd15b62788e6b0b70261ec4823;
# ESP SAs using 192 bit long keys (168 + 24 parity)
add 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 esp 0x012 -E 3des-cbc
0x6f719567a590b91de95bfa460f1576393ae0e6d6b5522c4c;

ah/transport//require;
spdadd 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.1 any -P out ipsec
esp/transport//require
ah/transport//require;
---------------------------
- do this for each to/from pair. This needs to be set up on each side
- of the connection, and you want to flip the in/out section of the
- policy on one side.
- to generate the AH key, do:
dd if=/dev/random count=16 bs=1| xxd -ps
- and take the output and use it for the key. Remember to stick the 0x
- in front of it
- to generate the ESP key, do:
dd if=/dev/random count=24 bs=1| xxd -ps
- and take the output and use it for the key. Remember to stick the 0x
- in front of it
- Change the permissions on the file to make it not world readable:
chmod 700 ipsec-tools.conf
- Fix stop order
sudo update-rc.d -f setkey remove
sudo update-rc.d setkey start 37 0 6 S .
XX.) Set up Beryl
http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu/Edgy/nVIDIA#Adding_Beryl_repository
- add to /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/ edgy main
- get the key and add it:
wget http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/[email protected] -O- | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo apt-get install beryl aquamarine heliodor emerald emerald-themes
You can start it by running:
beryl-manager
Add it to session/autostarted stuff/whatever
-- xorg.conf --
- it is recommended to set this option in the device section
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "On"
- and to add/change these lines at the end of your xorg.conf:
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
-- xorg.conf --
XX.) Optional, set up ATI binary drivers:
IMPORTANT NOTE - this BREAKS software suspend in hoary!!!!
ADDENDUM - and breezy!
ADDENDUM - since there is opengl support in dapper, I didn't even try....
apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx fglrx-control
- Add fglrx to /etc/modules
- load it:
depmod -a
modprobe fglrx
- edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and change "ati" or "radeon" to "fglrx"
- restart X and it should work
XX.) Set up ieee1394 support for machines w/ firewire support
- MC - DAPPER note - not sure if this is necessary, putting off
- Info:
http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/HowToCaptureDigitalVideo
- Add the following to /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh, right at the end before
- the exit:
mknod /dev/raw1394 c 171 0
chown root:video /dev/raw1394
chmod 660 /dev/raw1394
- People have to be in the video group to do video things...
