An average guy's IT (mis)adventures

Hello!

Last "real" post was about 2 months ago.. I got busy with stuff at home but also made a lot of adjustments here and there at @wpn. Let me list the most important ones:

• Set up shell and email users' homes backup: archives are still stored on the VPS for the time being, till when I'll find another proper backup location.
• Cleaned up /var/www/ and nginx virtualhosts; also removed "Shaarli", since I wasn't really using it anymore.
• Added a new board on the main site for BitTorrent, reachable here: https://woodpeckersnest.space/board/torrents
• Upgraded XMPP Prosody server to 13.0.0 and isolated anon webchat even more, so that those users won't be able to connect to Biboumi IRC gateway.
• Upgraded all #slixmpp powered bots to 1.10, released only yesterday
• Formatted (again) the 2 pdf files regarding @wpn's Term of Use and Privacy Notice (no rules updates though)

I think that's about it.. probably 😀 I'm definitely forgetting something.

Some other news: a few new users joined XMPP and more than a few logged in our Movim COMMutiny pod. Welcome Aboard everyone! Be Nice!!

I'm keeping the pod up-to-date as much as I can (it's running on master branch), but that also mean I have to restart it sometimes; I will try to do that only during weekends from now on.. promise.

And now I'd better get going again.. See you soon!

I've been rethinking about the publication license of these blog posts.

Changes I made:

• Some "public" posts were turned to "CC BY-NC-SA"
• Some "all-rights-reserved" posts were turned to "CC BY-NC-SA"

At the moment there are still other public and all-rights-reserved posts.. Most of the public ones are from me, while some are from friends who told me to publish them with such license.

The all-rights-reserved ones are mostly from content I grabbed over the net and published here, where I wasn't able to contact the original authors (so credits are to themselves) and some others are e.g. posts with pictures I took myself.

So.. From now on, all these types of licenses will co-exist and each post will be tagged with the correct/relative one (hopefully).

Do I like it? YEP!

Will be posting about my (mis)adventures while administering a VPS.. Or more than one? For the time being I've just installed this beauty, called "chyrp-lite"
