Currently we're migrating one of our file servers from Linux (Debian) to FreeBSD.

This should improve the NFS performance.

It is no problem to run Drupal 7 behind a reverse  proxy.

You just need to set the base_url (without a trailing slash):

$base_url = 'http://example.com/drupal';

Yesterday I moved all the servers to a new rack.

This caused a downtime of about 2 hours.

nice ;-)

Since we are running a lot of virtual Servers we definitely need a directory server.

I've never set up an ldap server but my goal is to have it running by Saturday.

Currently I'm fighting against Apache do make it work as a reverse proxy(gateway).

At the moment I have the problem that the URL is changed somehow like:

http://examle.com -> http://example.com/example.com

This is quite weird and I was not able to find a solution so …

Nice ;-)

ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/5.0/

I need this very often (for every new box):

git config --global user.name "your name"

git config --global user.email "your emailid"

To change the default shell in FreeBSD for some user simply:

pw usermod user_name -s /usr/local/bin/bash
