Here I described how to configure a local mailman server. From time to time a new operating system version has to be installed and the mailman configuration and data has to be migrated to the new installation. Fortunately It's quite easy if you execute some additional steps after mailman installation.

Today I installed Linux Mint 10 on my box. It's a nice Linux distro which runs out of the box on various hardware. The following pages contain a summary of the experiences I made with different video player with my dvb-s Pinnacle TV SAT (BT878 based) on Linux Mint 10. My goal was to get a player configured very quickly (< 15 mins) and not to read much doc about the player in the net. Right now I know kaffeine which I used on an openSuSE box previously.

nmap is a powerfull tool, which is known to be a port scanner. But there are other useful situations where it can be used:
- Query dhcp parameters
sudo nmap -sU -p 67 --script=dhcp-discover 192.168.178.1
- Query registered DNS names in a fritz box
sudo nmap -sP -PN -R --dns-servers 192.168.178.1 192.168.178.0/24 | grep -i fritz.box

USB Sticks are very cheap and can get much more data than a CD or DVD and it's much faster to crate a rescue USB stick. The right tool on LInux is unetbootin. Just download a LiveISO and copy it with the tool on the USB stick. Voila.
A nice LiveISOs is provided by Linux Mint or Linux LiveCDs from other Linux distros ( List of Linux liveCD Distros ) or SystemRescueCD (German, English, French and Spanish Website). Last one doesn't need unetbootin and is very small (512 MB).
