Win2k8 – Relaunch Initial Configuration Task

After a fresh installation of Windows 2008 Server you have the handy “Initial Configurations Task” Wizard. If you have chosen “Do not show this window at logon” it won’t appear anymore. So how can you relaunch it?

Just run “oobe” from the prompt.

Install Debian Web Server

I don’t have a lot of experience in Linux environment but anyway I got the job to install a new webserver at my work. The old server was running on debian already so I decided to take the same linux distribution.

The newest ISO you get from here from here:
www.debian.org

For my installation I just needed the CD1. Because I wanted to try it out first I decided to install debian on VMWare Server. So I booted the ISO file in VMWare and did the standard installation without the GUI. We don’t really need a GUI (Graphic User Interface) for a web server. The installation is actually straight forward.

So now we are logged in as root and are in the command line. So what now???

Follow the instructions on this webpage:
www.mysql-apache-php.com

I actually got some error when I tried to install apache and php with apt-get. To add some more sources to the apt source.list file solved the problem.

To edit the source do following:

  1. nano /etc/apt/source.list

You might want to use your own source list. This one worked for me:

  1. deb http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all
  2. deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org stable all
  3. deb http://people.debian.org/~dexter php4 sarge
  4. deb-src http://people.debian.org/~dexter php4 sarge
  5.  
  6. # stable
  7. deb http://ftp.at.debian.org/debian sarge main non-free contrib
