The sudo command allows permitted users to execute commands as root or another user without sharing the root password, making it the preferred mechanism for privilege escalation on RHEL 8. Properly configuring sudo is a foundational security task: it creates an auditable record of privileged actions and limits blast radius when accounts are compromised. This […]
Systemd is the default init system on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, responsible for managing services, sockets, timers, and other units from boot through shutdown. Understanding how to control systemd services is essential for anyone administering RHEL 8 servers in production. This tutorial covers the core systemctl commands, how to inspect logs with journalctl, and […]
Introduction Debian 13 Trixie is built around the ethos of stability and free software. Setting up configure jenkins with https via nginx on Trixie leverages the same proven Debian packaging system that powers millions of servers worldwide, while benefiting from the latest upstream releases included in the Trixie freeze. Follow each step carefully and the […]

Envoy is a high-performance, cloud-native L4/L7 proxy designed for service mesh architectures and API gateway deployments. Originally built by Lyft, it is the data plane of Istio and is used by organisations running microservices on Kubernetes and bare metal alike. Unlike Nginx or HAProxy, Envoy is designed to run as a sidecar alongside each service, […]
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) remains a widely used protocol for monitoring network devices, servers, and applications in enterprise environments. While SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c rely on unencrypted community strings, SNMPv3 introduces authentication and encryption, making it suitable for security-conscious deployments. This tutorial covers installing and configuring net-snmp on RHEL 9 with SNMPv3, extending the agent […]
PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) booting allows machines to boot from the network and install an operating system without a physical installation medium. This is invaluable for data centres and labs where provisioning dozens or hundreds of machines manually is impractical. On RHEL 9, you can build a complete PXE infrastructure using TFTP for boot file […]
Introduction Deploying configure php-fpm with nginx on a Debian 13 Trixie machine is straightforward thanks to Debian’s policy-compliant packaging. Unlike rpm-based distributions, Debian stores configuration helpers in /etc/default/, uses update-rc.d for older init scripts, and provides dpkg-reconfigure for interactive package configuration. This tutorial stays on the systemd path throughout. Prerequisites Ensure Debian 13 Trixie is […]
Podman is RHEL 9’s default container engine and, unlike Docker, runs entirely rootless and integrates natively with systemd. Socket activation is a systemd feature that lets the kernel hold a listening socket open while the service is stopped; the moment the first connection arrives, systemd starts the corresponding service and hands the socket over. This […]
.NET 8 is the current Long-Term Support release of Microsoft’s open-source runtime and is fully supported on RHEL 9 through Microsoft’s official package repository. ASP.NET Core applications run as self-contained processes, which makes them easy to containerise or proxy behind Nginx for production workloads. This tutorial walks through adding the Microsoft repository, installing the .NET […]
