Successfully moved my blog to the new pc-freak
:)
I've successfully moved my blog from the old pc-freak machine that
served well for 12 wonderful years! The old machine was Pentium 166
overclocked to 190 mhz with 160 mb of memory and 2.5 GB hard drive
(samsung) as well as another hdd with a capacity of 3.2 GB. The
machine was happily running apache, exim, pop3 server, tor server,
X with a wmaker occasionally, an eggdrop, wu-ftp server, telnet
server, ssh, well that's mostly I might be missing something. It
was a miracle that this machine has been running for this long
time. This machine was used as a primary source for my experiments
with ipchains, iptables, kernel compilation, testing linux and
other various operating systems as well as using it as a place to
gather with friends. It also has served well as a primary shell
access machine for friends. The machine had been running Debian
linux without a problem for all this time. I've successfully moved
most of the stuff from that old machine to the new one on which I'm
blogging this post is running 1.6 ghz pentium machine with 512mb of
memory and 80 gb hard drive. I've decided to migrate the old
pc-freak machine from debian gnu linux to freebsd. Currently the
new machine is happily running FreeBSD 7.2, most of the stuff
contained on the old machine is migrated including the user
directories and passwords. The tutorial I used throughout the
migration of the users between the linux and freebsd was the one
located in the freebsd list that could be red
