I find wget to be an indispensable tool when working with any Linux application, so I would like to see it added to TurnKey Core. Searching the forums shows that others are also using wget or looking for the functions it provides.
Is there a preferred method for making requests/suggestions? I'm following the example set by others in posting here in the General forum, but it might be nice to have a separate section in the forum for this type of discussion along with a voting mechanism to gauge the level of interest.
Description: Installs openvpn (+bridge-utils) and the webmin openvpn module to TKL Core, allowing easier configuration and management of openvpn servers and certificates.
Would it be helpful to have live demos of some of the more popular appliances?
I can set them up on my servers as a showcase. Visitors will have full root access to play with the appliance as much as they like. The appliances will re-install every few hours to ensure they do not get crudded up.
If this sounds interesting, what appliances should we show?
Ive been following your development for the past few months and I have to say congratulations on the great work. I have a few ideas for new apps that would be really popular.
1) apache with support for mod mono ( An ASP.Net appliance)
2) iFolder Server (effectively a dropbox server)
Hope some of this helps. Both are quite easy to impliment on Ubuntu (or so Im told).
As you probably know the ubuntu server team is working on the next LTS release, Lynx, which is scheduled in approx. 4 months from now.
As I'm starting deploying many of my turnkey appliances these days I'm wondering what will be my upgrading options, since some of the important appliances are deployed on real hardware or on my DMZ dist upgrade is quite important, new hardware drivers in the kernel and new features of other core components make it a must for me.
Are there any plans for that ? are there any other options of upgrade ?
Love the concept. I came looking for a Moodle VM, but as far as I can see, you are only shipping Moodle 1.8? As far as I know, most Moodle installations have moved on to 1.9 and are eagerly awaiting 2.0. There are so many security and usability issues with 1.8, that the general advice seems to be to go for 1.9 at present (it was released in March 2008, so is pretty stable now). I'm not sure why moodle.org still has 1.8 for download even - I guess some people can't have upgraded.
Thank you I was looking for a blog or forum setup. My church has a few shut-ins (weather or illness). And found you site, was able to install it on a Wyse Winterm Network Terminal WT9455XL (VIA 500mhz) with 512mb ram runs very quite no fans and only pulls 15-25 watts. Had some troubles installing but wounce I got it going it runs fine.
