Log first install

First up is where to find the install and instructions.

Found the Cubox-I on this forum, ARMv7h

Install instructions here

See the Installation Tab

Zero out the first few MB of the card to remove any previous U-Boot environment:


            dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=1M count=4

Start fdisk to partition the SD card:


            fdisk /dev/sdc

At the fdisk prompt, create the new partitions:

Type n, then p for primary, 1 for the first partition on the drive, 8192 for the starting sector, and +20M for the ending sector.

Type t to set the type, then c to set it to FAT.

Type n, then p for primary, 2 for the second partition, 49152 for the first sector, and press ENTER twice to accept default values.

Exit by typing w.

Create and mount the vfat filesystem:


            mkfs.vfat /dev/sdc1
            mkdir /tmp/boot
            mount /dev/sdc1 /tmp/boot

Create and mount the ext4 filesystem:


            mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdc2
            mkdir /tmp/root
            mount /dev/sdc2 /tmp/root

Download and extract the root filesystem:


            cd /mnt/disk2/linux_distros/
            wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinuxARM-imx6-cubox-latest.tar.gz
            tar -xf /mnt/disk2/linux_distros/ArchLinuxARM-imx6-cubox-latest.tar.gz -C /tmp/root

Move boot files to the boot partition:


            mv /tmp/root/boot/* /tmp/boot

Install the U-Boot bootloader:


            dd if=/tmp/boot/SPL of=/dev/sdc bs=512 seek=2
            dd if=/tmp/boot/u-boot.img of=/dev/sdc bs=1K seek=42

Unmount the partitions


            sync
            umount /tmp/boot
            umount /tmp/root

Boot the Cubox-I

Insert the SD card into the Cubox-i contacts uppermost, connect ethernet, and apply 6-12V power.

Use the serial console (CN6 micro USB connector) or SSH to the IP address given to the board by your router. The default root password is ‘root’.

Gitlab Omnibus Readme

Configuration options

Configuration done in file:

  • /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure

GitLab and GitLab CI are configured by setting their relevant options in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb. For a complete list of available options, visit the gitlab.rb.template. New installations starting from GitLab 7.6, will have all the options of the template listed in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb by default.

SMTP settings

If you would rather send application email via an SMTP server instead of via Sendmail, add the following configuration information to /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb and run gitlab-ctl reconfigure.

in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
            gitlab_rails['smtp_enable'] = true
            gitlab_rails['smtp_address'] = "smtp.server"
            gitlab_rails['smtp_port'] = 456
            gitlab_rails['smtp_user_name'] = "smtp user"
            gitlab_rails['smtp_password'] = "smtp password"
            gitlab_rails['smtp_domain'] = "example.com"
            gitlab_rails['smtp_authentication'] = "login"
            gitlab_rails['smtp_enable_starttls_auto'] = true

If your SMTP server does not like the default ‘From: gitlab@localhost’ you can change the ‘From’ with this setting.

in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
            gitlab_rails['gitlab_email_from'] = 'gitlab@example.com'

To change GitLab CI email configuration (e.g. use SMTP), use gitlab_ci instead of gitlab_rails.

in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
            gitlab_ci['gitlab_ci_email_from'] = 'gitlab-ci@example.com'
            gitlab_ci['smtp_enable'] = true
            gitlab_ci['smtp_address'] = "smtp.server"

Postfix on a null client

A null client is a machine that can only send mail. It receives no mail from the network, and it does not deliver any mail locally. A null client typically uses POP, IMAP or NFS for mailbox access.

  1. /etc/postfix/main.cf:
  2. myhostname = hostname.example.com
  3. myorigin = $mydomain
  4. relayhost = $mydomain
  5. inet_interfaces = loopback-only
  6. mydestination =

Translation:

  • Line 2: Set myhostname to hostname.example.com, in case the machine name isn’t set to a fully-qualified domain name (use the command “postconf -d myhostname” to find out what the machine name is).
  • Line 2: The myhostname value also provides the default value for the mydomain parameter (here, “mydomain = example.com”).
  • Line 3: Send mail as “user@example.com” (instead of “user@hostname.example.com”), so that nothing ever has a reason to send mail to “user@hostname.example.com”.
  • Line 4: Forward all mail to the mail server that is responsible for the “example.com” domain. This prevents mail from getting stuck on the null client if it is turned off while some remote destination is unreachable. Specify a real hostname here if your “example.com” domain has no MX record.
  • Line 5: Do not accept mail from the network.

  • Line 6: Disable local mail delivery. All mail goes to the mail server as specified in line 4.

/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
            [mail.coot.net]:26 craig@coot.net:mypassword
Create the hash db file for Postfix by running the postmap command:
postmap /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd

If all went well, you should have a new file named sasl_passwd.db in the /etc/postfix/ directory.

Securing Your Password and Hash Database Files

The /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd and the /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd.db files created in the previous steps contain your SMTP credentials in plain text.

For security reasons, you should change their permissions so that only the root user can read or write to the file. Run the following commands to change the ownership to root and update the permissions for the two files:

Change permissions of sasl_passwd and sasl_passwd.db
            chown root:root /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd.db
            chmod 0600 /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd.db

bitnami Review - 10/18/2014 - Easy to install and configure - By Nacho Sanchez

Installation takes 5 minutes, and configuration is very easy since they include links to FAQs and basic stuff you should know.

Configuring the email can get tricky, so here is the basic stuff:

Be careful with the host and port, since it sets the ones where the machine installs by default, but if you then assign a static IP you must change them manually.

Notes on setting up a Debian Virtualbox host for my employer

Overview

  • Oracle’s standard processor licensing, $1,000 per processor socket

Setting up the host box.

How to autostart vms

Good guide to setting up autostart

http://lifeofageekadmin.com/how-to-set-your-virtualbox-vm-to-automatically-startup/

Log

First you need to create the file /etc/default/virtualbox and add a few variables.


            VBOXAUTOSTART_DB=/etc/vbox
            VBOXAUTOSTART_CONFIG=/etc/vbox/vbox.cfg

Create the file /etc/vbox/vbox.cfg


            root# mkdir /etc/vbox

With one line.


            default_policy = allow

Set permissions on directory to the vboxuser group and make sure users can write to the directory as well as sticky bit.


            root# chgrp vboxusers /etc/vbox
            root# chmod 1775 /etc/vbox

Add administrator to the vboxusers group.


            root# groups administrator
            administrator : administrator sudo
            
            root# usermod -a -G vboxusers administrator
            
            root# groups administrator
            administrator : administrator sudo vboxusers

Every user who wants to enable autostart for individual machines has to set the path to the autostart database directory with


            administrator$ VBoxManage setproperty autostartdbpath /etc/vbox

List the vms


            administrator$ VBoxManage list vms
            "craigdeb" {0e7bca8b-b552-4ebb-9e39-bb1f6fb19d5c}
            

            administrator$ VBoxManage modifyvm craigdeb --autostart-enabled on
            

            root# update-rc.d virtualbox defaults

BASIC DEV. TOOLS: COMPILER,VIM,TMUX,GIT

Compiler and build tools


            sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall libtool automake uuid-dev

vim (or vim-gtk),tmux,git


            sudo apt-get install vim tmux git

Personalize git


            git config --global user.name "Your Name Here"
             # Sets the default name for git to use when you commit

             # Sets the default email for git to use when you commit

Install the rsa public key on my github account


            ssh-keygen

Then clone the vim config and install


            cd
            git clone git@github.com:CootCraig/dotfiles_again.git
            cd ~/dotfiles_again/linux

HOWTO: headless, custom xorg resolution/modeline with vnc access to display 0 console http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1832456

(This HOWTO will cover different aspects you might not need all of this, but if you need a) a custom resolution b) setup headless access c) access to the console (display :0)remotely part of this may be useful to you.)

So this was going to be a question but it turned into a HOWTO after spending hours on this.

PROBLEM #1: I needed remote access to the console (display :0) of a server from a laptop because I needed to access the audio hardware (though I’m sure there are different reasons one needs access to :0) so nx, tightvnc, xvnc were all out. PROBLEM #2: The server had no monitor attached PROBLEM #3: I was connecting with a laptop that had a resolution of 1280x800 but of course windows (and other OSes) have a task bar, so the actually workable area is less than that. I needed a resolution of 1224x685 (not your typical resolution). PROBLEM #4: need the vnc server to start at boot to allow login from the server (no monitor).

1) Install x11vnc (this seems to be the only vnc server I found that allows console access, nomachine 4 (coming soon) and nomachine 3 have some form of ‘physical screen’ access, but I had a hard time with managing the audio hardware with that so I needed to use vnc.

Setup up work Git server with Gogs

Install a Debian 7 virtualbox guest to host the company GIT repositories.

Use Debian stable wheezy

Debian 7.7 net install iso

The current “stable” distribution of Debian is version 7, codenamed wheezy. It was initially released as version 7.0 on May 4th, 2013 and its latest update, version 7.7, was released on October 18th, 2014.

Base install

Hostname: gogs.gcsww.local


            Software Selection
            ---------------------
            remove Debian desktop environment
            leave Print server
            Add SSH server
            remove laptop
            

            apt-get update
            apt-get dist-upgrade
            
            apt-get install vim
            apt-get install tmux
            apt-get install git
            apt-get install sudo
            
            adduser craig sudo

Put local ssh public key on gogs server

Step 2: Copy the public key to remote-host using ssh-copy-id


            jsmith@local-host$ ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub remote-host
            jsmith@remote-host's password:
            Now try logging into the machine, with "ssh 'remote-host'", and check in:
            
            .ssh/authorized_keys
            
            to make sure we haven't added extra keys that you weren't expecting.
            
            ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub 192.168.88.183
            ssh 192.168.88.183

Note: ssh-copy-id appends the keys to the remote-host’s .ssh/authorized_key.

Some background on Debian boot up services

update-rc.d Cheat Sheet - James Coyle


            service --status-all
             ...
             [ ? ]  gogs
             [ ? ]  gogs-web
             [ - ]  gogs-web-1
             ...

insserv is a low level tool used by update-rc.d which enables an installed system init script (boot script) by reading the comment header of the script, e.g.:

The dependency-based boot sequencing introduced with Debian 6.0 is now always enabled, including for users of file-rc.

For optimal sequencing, all init.d scripts should declare their dependencies in an LSB header. This is already the case for scripts shipped in Debian, but users should check their local scripts and consider adding that information.

For more information on this feature refer to the information available in /usr/share/doc/insserv/README.Debian.

Starting with Debian 6.0, the insserv command is used instead, if dependency-based booting is enabled:


            insserv mydaemon

Where mydaemon is an executable init script placed in /etc/init.d. insserv will produce no output if everything went OK. Examine the error code in $? if you want to be sure.

Both the old and the new way requires an init script to be present in /etc/init.d. For dependency-based booting, the script needs to be an LSB init script.

Let’s fix it


            /etc/init.d/gogs
            /etc/init.d/gogs-web
            /etc/init.d/gogs-web-1

To see all the files the package installed onto your system, do this:


            dpkg-query -L 
            
            
            

            /opt/gogs/conf/app.ini
