In addition to that you can use this app to request details from servers that have ISPConfig installed; these details include everything you know from the Monitor module in the ISPConfig Control Panel (e.g. services, mail and system logs, mail queue, CPU and memory info, disk usage, quota, OS details, RKHunter log, etc.).

Running PrestaShop 1.5.x On Nginx (LEMP) On Debian Wheezy/Ubuntu 12.10
======================================================================

This tutorial shows how you can install and run a PrestaShop 1.5.x web site on a Debian Wheezy or Ubuntu 12.10 system that has nginx installed instead of Apache (LEMP = Linux + nginx (pronounced "engine x") + MySQL + PHP). nginx is a HTTP server that uses much less resources than Apache and delivers pages a lot of faster, especially static files.

How To Upgrade OpenSUSE 12.2 To 12.3 (Desktop & Server)
=======================================================

This guide shows how you can upgrade your OpenSUSE 12.2 desktop and server installations to OpenSUSE 12.3.

OpenSUSE 12.3 Samba Standalone Server With tdbsam Backend
=========================================================

This tutorial explains the installation of a Samba fileserver on OpenSUSE 12.3 and how to configure it to share files over the SMB protocol as well as how to add users. Samba is configured as a standalone server, not as a domain controller. In the resulting setup, every user has his own home directory accessible via the SMB protocol and all users have a shared directory with read-/write access.

How To Run LinOTP On OpenSuSE 12.3 With PostgreSQL
==================================================

This describes the installation of LinOTP on OpenSUSE 12.3 using PostgreSQL as a token database. LinOTP is a two factor authentication solution with One Time Passwords. In the following Howto we are showing how to enable SSH authentication with LinOTP.

Nagios 3.x.x/Icinga 1.x.x Server Integration For SMS Alerts Via FoxBox Devices On Debian Squeeze
================================================================================================

In this tutorial I will describe how to configure mod_compress on a Lighttpd web server (on Debian Squeeze). mod_compress allows Lighttpd to compress files and deliver them to clients (e.g. browsers) that can handle compressed content which most modern browsers do. With mod_compress, you can compress HTML, CSS, Javascript, text or XML files to approx. 20 - 30% of their original sizes, thus saving you server traffic and making your modem users happier.
