It has a few pages which may be of interest for people doing Unix shell scripting or system administration. The 'official' channel FAQ for [[http://freenode.net|freenode]]'s `#bash` channel is [[BashFAQ]]. For common mistakes made by Bash programmers, see BashPitfalls. For learning Bash, try the BashGuide (in progress). For general Unix issues, try some of the pages in CategoryUnix. [[http://www.qmail.org|qmail]] users, see CategoryQmail. [[http://www.openssh.org/|ssh]] users, try CategorySsh. The [[http://wiki.debian.org/DebianIRC|Debian wiki]] has some more resources that may be useful. Miscellaneous pages: NetEtiquette, XyProblem. There are also some [[CategoryRant|rants]]. ---- To the idiot at 219.88.*.* who kept porn-spamming this page: congratulations. Because of you, I have blocked the entire /16 netblock (apparently a huge chunk of New Zealand). '''Why''' do we let idiots have dynamic IP addresses?? . Also, congratulations to greycat for blocking a whopping 65536 users out of spite just to stop one little spammer - an obviously constructive method of dealing with the fact that one's running an open wiki on a hostile network. . And what would you do instead? Require me to activate wiki accounts by hand before letting people edit pages? . A suggestion 1) I get a lot of mileage on my personal wiki out of blocking anonymous users from saving pages with URLs in them. A suggestion 2) Please install and activate ''Captchpa'' feature which would be asked before attempting to edit a page A suggestion 3) Require to to use ''Preview'' before page is actually posted. A suggestion 4) Use [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarpit_(networking)|teergrube]] (technique from SMTP spammer tar-pits). Accept page only after N minutes has passed since user pressed ''edit''. Say 3 minutes. (From an unaffected chunk of NZ): Thanks for the pages, greycat. It occurs to me that a wiki ought to be able to block edits from IP ranges without blocking views. I'll look into moinmoin. As of a couple days ago (early Feb 2009), this wiki now uses [[HelpOnTextChas|text captchas]] on page edits. [[TrustedEditorGroup|Trusted editors]] will not see them. If you're not smart enough to answer the (extremely simple) questions, then you lose. (That's potentially a small problem on pages that say "ask your questions here", but really... the captcha questions are ''very'' simple.) I also removed all firewall-level IP blocks, for now at least. ---- This is a [[http://moinmo.in/|MoinMoin]] wiki. Language packages have been installed for German and Spanish (''need to verify...?''), but virtually all the content herein is in English. This wiki is running under [[HelpOnInstalling/TwistedWeb|twisted]], with an Apache reverse proxy pointing to it. It should be reached using http://mywiki.wooledge.org/ (virtual host going through Apache proxy). ''The twisted configuration is apparently deprecated now by the Moin folks, in favor of WSGI running under Apache mod_wsgi or Cherrypy. I'm working on getting it running under Cherrypy, and it's very close now. The big difference is that Cherrypy/WSGI doesn't handle the `/moin_staticNNN/` content internally like the twisted version does; it relies on a static web server (Apache) to do so. So, the old `:8000` URL will no longer be totally functional when the switchover is made. This means you should '''change your bookmarks''' if you still have any pointing to the `:8000` URL!'' -GreyCat == Generic wiki stuff == * RecentChanges: see where people are currently working * CategoryCategory: pages organized by topics * WikiSandBox: feel free to change this page and experiment with editing * FindPage: search or browse the database in various ways * SyntaxReference: quick access to wiki syntax * SiteNavigation: get an overview over this site and what it contains A Wiki is a collaborative site, anyone can contribute and share: * Edit any page by pressing `GetText(Edit)` at the top or the bottom of the page * Create a link to another page with joined capitalized words (like WikiSandBox) or with {{{[[words in double square brackets]]}}} * Search for page titles or text within pages using the search box at the top of any page * See HelpForBeginners to get you going, HelpContents for all help pages.
