Sysadmin

Apologies if you are looking for any articles or trying to post a comment and you are getting 404 errors, or if you wondered where jbehave.org or behaviourdriven.org had gone. Over the last few days I’ve managed to completely hose my server running Debian testing distribution, and I’ve had to downgrade to Debian stable. This involved some rsync backups and a complete reinstall of the virtual server.

Apologies especially to the lovely people whose blogs I host and who have been extremely patient with me over the last few days.

This is the first of an occasional series of posts about Linux systems administration. I’ve been an on-off Linux sysadmin for about, well, my first Linux was Slackware on a stack of 3.5" floppies. Every now and then I do something “fiddly” and I want to capture these episodes in case I ever need to do it again, or in case someone else wants to and they find this useful.
