The 'official' channel FAQ for freenode's {{{#bash}}} channel is BashFaq. For common mistakes made by Bash programmers, see BashPitfalls. For general Unix issues, see DotFiles, ["Permissions"], or ProcessManagement. If you are unwilling or unable to share, a user page explicitly stating such is still helpful.

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.

Generic wiki stuff: This is a [[http://moinmo.in/|MoinMoin]] wiki. Language packages have been installed for English, French, German and Spanish, but virtually all the content is in English.

As of April 2014, this wiki runs on a Debian virtual private server with [[http://nginx.org/|nginx]] and [[http://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.org/en/latest/|uWSGI]]. In December 2012, this wiki was moved to the same Debian virtual private server with Apache2 and mod_wsgi. Prior to that, it ran on an OpenBSD box with a very slow Internet connection, using [[http://moinmo.in/HowTo/ApacheWithCherryPy|CherryPy]] with Apache rewriting magic to help out. Prior to ''that'', it ran on the same box using the "twisted" package (instructions for that no longer exist!), with a simpler Apache reverse proxy pointing to it.
