Welcome to ThinkServer

The aim of this Mediawiki project is to show how my server is set up. Hopefully, if there are any problems in the future (i.e. server needs rebuilding) then the guides will be available here. Hopefully when finished, I will keep this up-to-date and it should be a very comprehensive guide. I also hope to upload files to aid in the connected devices to this server.

This guide is based on:

• openSUSE Leap 15.6
• Apache HTTP Server (with PHP 7) serving:
  • MediaWiki (Me!)
  • Piwigo Photo Gallery
  • Wordpress cooking site
  • Nextcloud file server
• MariaDB Database Sever (MySQL drop-in replacement)
• NTP time server
• Samba server with WINS server and NT domain support (NT domain supported cancelled. No good with anything later than Windows XP. Waiting for Active Directory domain support from Samba)
• Asterisk VoIP server/TFTP Server (Implemented as a Xen virtual machine, running AsteriskNOW!/FreePBX)
• Dynamic DHCP and DNS server
• NFS file sharing
• OpenVPN Server employing X.509 Certificates
• McAfee Common Updater repository over Samba (Updated at 19:00 UTC each day)
• distributed.net RC5-72 project, using spare CPU time

To be implemented:

• Mail server

These pages display well on an iPod or iPhone or an Android device! True mobile friendly support to come.
