Old Looks and a brand new engine.
It’s been a day since the decommissioning of my last open source server, I still have my checklist of tasks to do for my new server and may I say “mine”. Though it is only just a quarter of power with the previous one, its much more efficient in terms of power consumption (yes, due to economic crisis I had to think of my electricity bills right?). Also, I suspended my hosting services for now because of “security reasons” with my current server’s operating system. Open Ports should be carefully watched for suspicious and other unnecessary services should be disabled. Here are some of the retired and added plugged in services:
HTTP -> Obviously Retained -> Apache replaced by IIS
FTP -> Deactivated -> N/A
DNS -> Retained -> BIND replaced by MS DNS Server
Webmin/Virtualmin(hosting mgt. tool) -> Removed -> Not needed anymore.
Source Control -> Retained -> SVN replaced by MS VS TFS and Sharepoint Server
Virtualization -> Deactivated -> hardware issues with the new one.
