@Oli permit me to say that there are times I want to hit you for being specific. Reread my first freaking sentence: "You cannot make the first master Apache process start as non-root for the master process in a sane way." (emphasis mine)
@Oli your argument says I say it outright can't, I didn't say that, I said it can't be done in a sane way.
I'm permitted to have my opinion. You still get an upvote, but you get a lashing from me about not analyzing entire clauses and statements as a whole before rendering judgement on what one is trying to say in their sentence.
You can give the "in a sane way" get-out on any software-related answer. *Can I play Doom on kcalc?* Not in a sane way, but you could spend a few months rewriting it to have a Doom component. Anything is possible.
That's why I read that as "No you can't do that, stop being silly"
I am pretty sure you can do exactly that with rump (I think) on NetBSD @NathanOsman but that's not really an answer - I'm just making conversation, sort of.
I've got a fairly complex setup for the group of websites I run. I've got nginx proxying virtually everything and behind nginx, I've got an assortment of Docker containers, local scripts, and FastCGI processes.
The concept of "root" is blurred a bit in Docker because "root" in the container doesn't necessarily translate to "root" on the host.
I have a doubt in Linux networking in VM ware.
I have VM ware and i installed three Cent OS in them. I would like to network them all in a local LAN in VM ware itself.
One among these three VM machine is made as server.
This server have to contact outside the LAN.
In physical systems we will...
Where it say sudo apt-get update (as an example) - I put the sudo .... in there and it just showed the ` itself instead of the gray background like normal code.
Alright, chat is eating some of it. I used the ` around the commands.
@Seth the three most important files for building a DEB are the changelog, control, and rules files.
I don't understand how it could work without all three of those.
The changelog has the version, the control file has the dependencies and package names, and the rules file dictates how the package is built.
(Not to say you won't get warnings and complaints if some of the other files are missing. Just that those are the absolute bare minimum required files.)
@NathanOsman Looks perfectly fine to me. No errors, nothing. All the files are there it's just none of the actual source is built into the .deb file after the build command.
@Seth So...I'm checking a couple 'o things, put in man apt and it says No manual entry for apt. It took an embarrassingly long amount of time to realize in Fedora right now.
@NathanOsman I can understand that. I'm pretty forgetful so finding stuff I've done before isn't too unusual. I blame it on age but, really, I just get distracted quickly and things just get forgotten.
Oh, yeah. Half the time I half to review my old answers before I can make a new answer. Who can remember all the quirky details you research for some of this.
I like to run memory and computationally intensive programs like Matlab and Mathematica in windows, but I prefer to program and do memory and computationally intensive data analysis in Ubuntu.

@kgill That's not going to work. He needs to set xdg-mime default x-terminal-emulator inode/directory (or similar, that's off the top of my head) to open the terminal when he inserts a usb. Although to open it in the right directory, he'll need to run a script with something like danplanet.com/blog/2007/11/11/… (thx @hbdgaf for the link)

E: Build-Depends dependency for golang-github-hectane-go-nonblockingchan cannot be satisfied because candidate version of package golang-github-hectane-go-attest-dev can't satisfy version requirements
Wait - what?
The dependency is listed as golang-github-hectane-go-attest-dev (>= 0.1.1).
And the repository has the package golang-github-hectane-go-attest-dev_0.1.1-0~201511050502~ubuntu16.04.1_all.deb.
Methinks 0.1.1-0~201511050502~ubuntu16.04.1 is indeed >= 0.1.1

@Fabby hmm I do have an... interesting view of this. If I'm honest, I could see myself working in one of these places - GCHQ or general government mathematics etc. Or Army / RAF computer science.
But yes I get that government monitoring is a controversial subject.
I never have liked that quote. I'm not sure why the liberty is essential (I mean I live here, it's the governments job to keep me safe - so they should do what is needed) and I don't see how the safety is temporary...

alright, im really getting freaked out now. I just installed google authenticator for ssh based upon digital oceans tutorial, which is basically the same as @hg8 suggested (just that it uses neno instead of vim. pewwwww), i configured everything, have my key in my google auth, restarted the ssh service, even restarted the complete server, but it's still not asking for the auth code
could it be that a different ssh server is handling my login at the moment? so that all my configuration isn't even being read?
I never changed it though, and the config file looked good to me. strange. would you say that SSD is a must for servers these days?
on the productive side I mainly run php projects using laravel and some node stuff. I know that especially node is depenend on opening hundreds of files, but I never had any issues so far and my sites are pretty responsive
@cl-netbox Why is it necessary to reinstall the Windows boot loader here? Won't installing GRUB overwrite it and consequentially superseed it (i.e. fixing it is unuseful)? askubuntu.com/a/694247/380067
@kos because of this comment of OP under the other answer : I tried but when I select windows 10, it shows only ubuntu MATE option but when I select this it get's me an error. - just to get sure ... he is a 1 rep user ... :)
I don't really need seafile on my own server, so I could transfer that to a dropbox pro account. I could also drop the counterstrike server, so that would be gone as well, minecraft on a single scaleway server for 2,99€, a single scaleway machine for gitlab / sentry / jira and then something for my websites.. that would result in 16€ so far, leaves up to 24€ / month for a pure webserver.
I can imagine that GCE or even AWS would be cheap as well, but damn.. they're pricing is so hard for a little freelancer that just wants some sites online. Not that it would be expensive, but you basically have no idea how much that would cost :D
I may be wrong but I always thought that you can do such things as an owner. Actually I tried to add that user to the room, but they are not being displayed in the access tab... weird.
@danielwinter They aren't as cheap as you think in my experience. Definitely go with something that gives you a price per month. I've had some horribly slow aws instances that cost me something like 15 euros a month all things considered. DigitalOcean just resells aws instances at a lower cost, that's what you want.
