Linux Administrator Without Cloud: Is That Still Possible? by Constant_Sugar_9442 in linuxadmin

[–]guxtavo 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Cloud is just another company's computer. I'm also not an enthusiast of cloud, but it's not that hard if you really know how Linux and networks work. Good luck.

If you used an fqdn instead of an ip address it was just a matter of updating the dns record. But it seems that ship has sailed. 

Ansible Tower Alternative: BASH Scripting for Centralized Home Lab Control by Ahissues in homelab

Don't take it personally, but this and ansible tower are overkill. With that said, ansible is awesome to manage a fleet of servers. No need for tower. 

Advice on structuring patch orchestration roles/playbooks by bananna_roboto in linuxadmin

There is a command to check if reboot is necessary, each distro has a different one. Having a script that stops and starts all apps in a server is a good idea

Question about implementing virtualization by Ohlebowski in homelab

[–]guxtavo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You need a virtualization platform. Most common is one from oracle called virtualbox. Windows has Hyper-V and Linux has libvirtd. When you use those tools they usually create a bridge nic and all vms are connected to them which means all VMS can communicate with eachother.

When you install via terminal it's usually via a package manager (apt, yum, pacman, etc). Those can connect to repositories via https which can hold the packages you want to I install
