Virtual Hosting With PureFTPd And MySQL (Incl. Quota And Bandwidth Management) On Fedora 7
This document describes how to install a PureFTPd server that uses
virtual users from a MySQL database instead of real system users. This
is much more performant and allows to have thousands of ftp users on a
single machine. In addition to that I will show the use of quota and
upload/download bandwidth limits with this setup. Passwords will be
stored encrypted as MD5 strings in the database.

How To Install VMware Server On A Fedora 7 Desktop
This tutorial provides step-by-step instructions on how to install VMware Server
on a Fedora 7 desktop system. With VMware Server you can create and run
guest operating systems (”virtual machines”) such as Linux, Windows,
FreeBSD, etc. under a host operating system. This has the benefit that
you can run multiple operating systems on the same hardware which saves
a lot of money, and you can move virtual machines from one VMware
Server to the next one (or to a system that has the VMware Player which
is also free).

the best thing is: all software comes free of charge.

Secure Websites Using SSL And Certificates
This how-to will guide you through the entire process of setting up a secure website using SSL and digital certificates. This guide assumes that you have already a fully functional (and configured) server running Apache, BIND, and OpenSSL. Just as a side note, this guide was written based on a Fedora Core 6 distribution, but should be the same for most other distros out there.

The Perfect Desktop - Part 1: Fedora Core 6

where I will show people who are willing to switch to Linux how they
can set up a Linux desktop (Fedora Core 6
in this article) that fully replaces their Windows desktop, i.e. that
has all software that people need to do the things they do on their
Windows desktops. The advantages are clear: you get a secure system

Build Your Own Video Community With Lighttpd And FlowPlayer (Debian Etch)
This article shows how you can build your own video community using lighttpd with its mod_flv_streaming module (for streaming .flv videos, the format used by most major video communities such as YouTube) and its mod_secdownload module (for preventing hotlinking of the videos). I will use FlowPlayer as the video player, a free Flash video player with support for lighttpd’s mod_flv_streaming module. I will also show how you can encode videos (.mp4 .mov .mpg .3gp .mpeg .wmv .avi) to the FLV format supported by Adobe Flash.
