[RD] How to install Debian Linux – Complete guide

February 5, 2018 By Richie Leave a Comment

Debian Linux, aka The Universal Operating System, is a Linux distribution created by Ian Murdoch in 1993 that has since become one of the most widely deployed Linux distro's in the world, and for good reason. Debian has a massive repository of 50,000+ software packages, supports a range of CPU architectures including x86, x64, ARM, mips, PowerPC, and has become extremely popular in web server environments using the standard LAMP stack.

December 18, 2017 By Richie Leave a Comment

I originally published this guide on it's own website called "American Netflix Guide" to show you how to get the American version of Netflix, but all the steps can also be used to setup your own private VPN network, or even a VPN service provider. If you see anything named "*netflix*" you can replace it if you know what you're doing, otherwise just leave it until you're more comfortable with setting up VPN servers (hostnames and TAP adapters especially). I suggest you set aside 2 hours for this … [Read more...]

[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aLuVw7JB28] Setting custom DNS servers on Linux can increase performance, security and even thwart some websites using Geo-blocking via DNS. There are two ways to do this: via Network Manager GUI that's included in many Linux distros like Debian, Ubuntu and derivatives, or via resolv.conf (not directly, but via the head file) and I'll show you how to do both in this guide. FYI: The resolv.conf file is overwritten on each boot so we can't edit this … [Read more...]

Connect VPN using OpenVPN on Ubuntu or Debian

[youtube=https://youtu.be/mc0nxWNwEDI] In this guide I will show you how to connect your Ubuntu/Debian Linux PC/laptop to any VPN service that's using the OpenVPN protocol. OpenVPN is a fast and secure protocol and most VPN service providers and some workplaces will support it. Before we start the connection setup process, you will need to find out the following details (best have them written or printed). If you are connecting to a paid VPN service, just login and your details and settings … [Read more...]
