Home Network Setup, Part 2
Ok,
This is the second part of my guide on a home network setup. If you’ve only just dropped in I’d recommend you have a quick read over Part 1 . Throughout this guide I’ve exclusively used CentOS4 and I’ve assumed it’s a basic clean install.
I cover the following topics in this part:
- ADSL Setup
- DHCP Server Setup
- NAT Setup
- Caching DNS Server Setup
Home Network Setup, Part 1
Hey there,
Well, every few years or so I’m charged (or at least, I charge myself) with the responsibility of setting up our new rental premises with the most cost effective, efficient and clean solution to our day to day I.T. activities. My way of thinking is that, by setting all this up in a planned and carefully implemented manner we will be able to rely on the infrastructure just as much as we would if it was a “mission critical” component. Realistically, given that I am required to be able to fix a server onsite I rely upon my home network being up and running in the most efficient manner possible.
Subsequently, I thought it’d be pertinent to outline (for anyone else also endevouring on the task) what I did (am doing) when setting up my home network.
Redhat 7.3 to Redhat 9 Remote Upgrade
Hey all,
Ok, I transitioned a box from Redhat 7.3 to Redhat 9 today.
This was primarily due to some monumentally bad advice supplied by Rackshack (check out that thread here). While I’ll admit it fixed the initial problem (a kernel not booting) it manages to break the PSA admin server since the glibc libraries are incompatible.
Anyways, the basic steps for transitioning from RH7.3 to RH9 with a [broken] install of PSA7 are as follows. Kudos to ART for his assistance, without the turtle we’d never win the race.
