Ubuntu Minimal Installation Through an Internet Connection

October 27th, 2011

Ubuntu install screenshotIf you are a Linux fan, you would have known that Ubuntu 11.10 has released. Actually, Ubuntu versions are released as xx.04 or xx.10. In here, xx is the year which Ubuntu is released. And the “04″ and “10″ is used to show off the month it is released. Since Ubuntu releases new versions in April and October, they are marked as “04″ and “10″.
That is extra info however. :)

What I am going to tell you today is about Ubuntu Minimal Install through network.

123Systems through review – Not a good experience!

October 15th, 2011

123Systems-screenshotI must say I am not a negative reviewer by any meaning. And I can barely remember anything I’ve said bad things about. That’s why my blog had qualified for many “sponsored reviews”. Even though that is going to be changed after this blog post is written, I am going through it. I think it worth the cost.

I will start from the beginning of the story.
123Systems are advertising on WHT a lot. (well, that’s allowed:) ) And their packages are very cheap and I since I wanted to host my own website only, I ignored those lots of bad reviews about them on WHT and bought the Lin-256MB package.
Setup was instant and I got my VPS instantly after I paid my invoice through PayPal.

Free VPN service – Jumpto

October 12th, 2011

Jumpto-ScreenshotThere are much more discussions on privacy, today than there were a one year ago. Maybe because we hear many horrible stories about stealing credit card numbers, telephone numbers and some hackers use them for very bad things which may cause you to be jailed(not kidding).

That’s when VPN comes to help. VPN stands for Virtual Private Network. Most of the people gets a budget VPS from a location near their resident and use it as a tunnel to access the web. Using that way, hackers are not able to find out your real location with an IP trace. He/she will get your VPNs’ location instead of your real IP, if do so.

VPN’s are good for sure. No doubt in it. But it needs a little administrative skills on Linux environment and also need few bucks to maintain the VPS which contains the VPN you’ve created. Because this is a world of free(is it?), there are couple of useful services in this situation. Jumpto is a good service where you will get 250MB of bandwidth for a month for your personal use.
