With VMware Server you can create and run guest operating systems ("virtual machines") such as Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, etc. under a host operating system. This has the benefit that you can run multiple operating systems on the same hardware which saves a lot of money, and you can move virtual machines from one VMware Server to the next one (or to a system that has the VMware Player which is also free). falko Tue, 21 Dec 2010 13:18:06 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_fawn_vmware_server_howto This tutorial shows how to install the free VMware Server on an Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) system.

This is useful to control batch jobs, when you don't want them to eat too much CPU. It does not act on the nice value or other scheduling priority stuff, but on the real CPU usage. Also, it is able to adapt itself to the overall system load, dynamically and quickly. falko Mon, 14 Sep 2009 09:54:04 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-make-an-ubuntu-10.04-desktop-resemble-a-mac-with-elementary-docky-and-gloobus-preview This article shows how you can change the appearance of your Ubuntu 10.04 desktop so that it resembles a Mac. This can be achieved with the help of Elementary, Docky, and Gloobus-Preview. Elementary is a project that provides a popular icon set and GTK theme; Docky is an interactive dock (like the one you know from a Mac) that provides easy access to some of the files, folders, and applications on your computer, and more; and Gloobus-Preview is an extension for the Gnome Desktop Environment designed to enable a full screen preview of any kind of file or directory. falko Tue, 13 Jul 2010 11:18:44 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-make-an-ubuntu-10.10-desktop-resemble-a-mac-with-elementary-docky-and-gloobus-preview This article shows how you can change the appearance of your Ubuntu 10.10 desktop so that it resembles a Mac.

In front of the Apache cluster we create a load balancer that splits up incoming requests between the two Apache nodes. Because we do not want the load balancer to become another "Single Point Of Failure", we must provide high-availability for the load balancer, too. Therefore our load balancer will in fact consist out of two load balancer nodes that monitor each other using heartbeat, and if one load balancer fails, the other takes over silently. falko Thu, 12 Jun 2008 11:23:37 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-set-up-a-terminal-server-in-linux-using-ubuntu-9.10-and-freenx FreeNX is an open source implementation of NoMachine's NX Server. It is a bit more akin to Microsoft's RDP protocol than the usual VNC, so while keeping bandwidth to a minimum, it maintains good visual quality and responsiveness. falko Wed, 27 Jan 2010 13:22:06 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-set-up-an-ssl-vhost-under-apache2-on-ubuntu-9.10-debian-lenny This article explains how you can set up an SSL vhost under Apache2 on Ubuntu 9.10 and Debian Lenny so that you can access the vhost over HTTPS (port 443). SSL is short for Secure Sockets Layer and is a cryptographic protocol that provides security for communications over networks by encrypting segments of network connections at the transport layer end-to-end. We use the mod_ssl Apache module here to provide strong cryptography for Apache2 via SSL by the help of the Open Source SSL toolkit OpenSSL. falko Thu, 21 Jan 2010 13:42:07 GMT
