In this tutorial we're gonna take a look at setting up full disk encryption on Arch Linux using GRUB for both a BIOS/MBR based setup and a UEFI based setup. While the choice to install in UEFI mode is encouraging, early vendor UEFI implementations carry more bugs than their BIOS/MBR counterparts. You are advised to do a search relating to your particular motherboard model before proceeding. Contrary to "modern" advice I haven't personally found any compelling reason to use UEFI. https://unixshei
Most of the popular PHP frameworks postulate that they implement the model-view-controller (MVC) pattern, but it's just not true. https://unixsheikh.com/articles/no-your-web-application-isnt-mvc.html
In this tutorial we're gonna take a look at setting up full disk encryption on a BIOS MBR based system using GRUB on Debian GNU/Linux - the KISS way. https://unixsheikh.com/tutorials/real-full-disk-encryption-using-grub-on-debian-linux-for-bios.html
In this article we're going to take a little look at the typical discussions about the differences between popular operating systems such as BSD and Linux. https://unixsheikh.com/articles/the-typical-discussions-about-bsd-vs-linux.html
In this tutorial we're gonna take a look at how you can make the current commit in your Git repository the initial and only commit. This is useful if you're using Git as a backup solution and you want to clean out old files. It also works on GitHub. https://unixsheikh.com/tutorials/make-the-current-commit-the-initial-commit-in-a-git-repository.html
CloudFlare has become one of the fastest growing DNS and CDN hosters on the Internet delivering some of the best DNS speeds worldwide, but if you value customers or visitors to your website you maybe need reconsider using CloudFlare. https://unixsheikh.com/articles/stay-away-from-cloudflare.html
In this article we're going to take a hard look at the question about Google's "evilness" and the general condition of the Internet. https://unixsheikh.com/articles/is-google-evil.html
This is the second part of the mail server tutorial in which we'll install and setup OpenSMTPD, Dovecot, DKIMproxy, and Let's Encrypt. https://unixsheikh.com/tutorials/arch-linux-mail-server-tutorial-part-2-opensmtpd-dovecot-dkimproxy-and-lets-encrypt.html
In this tutorial we're going to setup Arch Linux as a mail server for virtual users using openSMTPD and Dovecot. The setup I am going to use is a simple setup for home usage or office usage without webmail or database management of virtual users (though you can easily add that). Instead the users are managed using a simple flat file and they connect to the server using an email client. The setup is very easy to manage and it is very well suited for home usage, if you want to manage your own emai
In this part of the tutorial we're going to take a look at the important parts of setting up DNS in order to run a mail server. https://unixsheikh.com/tutorials/arch-linux-mail-server-tutorial-part-3-get-dns-right-it-is-important.html
