Greetings
I am in need of learning how to setup Apache2, Postgresql, NFS at the same time as I am setting up my NAS box running OpenMediaVault.
OMV looks very impressive but with these plugins (and on the sides) there is a tremendous amount that needs to be setup and if its not right - - - well let's just say things are interesting.
I have found over the years that man pages and tech docs for Linux, GNU and the like are written for those that really do know what they are doing and merely need a reminder to remember how to EXACTLY write something or set that something up so that a desired result happens. Now to the rest of us who use these tools and have not spent years memorizing C, C++, C#, Python, perl, sql are don't consider these our mother tongue the docs are most often less than useful and too many times less than comprehensible (one of the biggest lacks is examples of good and bad usage of commands). I have learnt my way around certain things and have almost gotten comfortable doing things 'under the hood' but being faced with all of the first paragraph (adding in remote server VirtualBox vms at the very least) is a wee bit daunting. Have found official docs but these assume a lot and as soon as there is something that doesn't work exactly as expected - - - well - - - I'm supposed to know how to modify things (by osmosis I think!).
Well, I need to agree that in many cases.. that´s the case, but not always. There´s this[1] site where I can always find very good articles about how to do stuff like those you´re looking for: As you can see, their base is CentOS, but you´ll find a link with the label "Other OS", where you will be able to choose another distro.
