I have changed the OS on my server/workstatation from Debian to Kubuntu (a debian based OS) Article is ongoing
OK, Debian is cool, but Debian stable is stable, but old. I was missing OpenOffice 2.0 and other stuff, so I desided to reinstall my OS with kubuntu. I have tried tried this before. I did severel trials, on vmware to make sure, I didn't get into problems. I have severel problems, with swat, and other programs, but I found solutions for this. Backup: 1) Backup you /home and /root dir, since I have my on a seperate partition, I didn get into any problems with loosing data. (eccept for /root) 2) Backup fstab, crontab, and smb.conf all under /etc3) make a backup of packages you have installed (a list) via the command "dpkg -l > list.txt"4) make a backup of raidtab (if you have software raid) 5) everything else I forgot.... Installation:
Problems and solutions: SWAT: apt-get install swat inetd samba smbfs ipv6: edit: /etc/hosts (comment out the lines regarding ipv6) /etc/modprob.d/aliases (comment out he line regarding ipv6, and add a new line that is the same, just with a 'off' instead of ipv6
