The debian CPAN interface is easily managed, and there are more that a thousand CPAN modules in debian. (See the debian-perl web site: http://pkg-perl.alioth.debian.org/ ) The grea…

Any changes made by hand to a configuration file on a debian-like system are noted and respected by aptitude and apt-get, so your configuration files will not be over-written (unle…

Upload? localhost? pfff. I hack right on the production server!

What would be required to get Unbuntu to perform as a server in your mind? Removing X windows? Hardening? Why wouldn't you just perform a minimal install of Ubunut's LTS for exampl…
