= Greg's Wiki =

This is Greg's (also known as ["GreyCat"]'s) wiki. It is not very big yet, but it has got 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, see DotFiles, ["Permissions"], ProcessManagement, or UsingFind.

[http://www.qmail.org qmail] users, see QmailPath and QmailRelay. They're a bit rough right now.
 
Miscellaneous pages: SshKeys, FtpMustDie, XyProblem.
 
The [http://wiki.debian.org/DebianIRC Debian wiki] has some more resources that may be useful.
 
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.

This is a [http://moinmoin.wikiwikiweb.de/ MoinMoin] wiki. Language packages have been installed for German and Spanish, but virtually all the content herein is in English.

Generic wiki stuff:
 * RecentChanges: see where people are currently working
 * 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
 
== How to use this site ==
 
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 {{{["quoted words in 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.

This wiki is powered by MoinMoin.
