  • How to find details about user logins on Linux - TechRepublic

    Linux is an incredibly powerful platform that allows you to do just about anything you might want or need. As an admin, that's a double-edged sword--especially given Linux is a multi-user environment. In other words, more than one user can be logged in at once.

    That means admins might find themselves having to track down more information about those logins than they're accustomed to. For example, what users are logged in, what groups do they belong to, and what have they been doing? Where do you get such information? Have there been failed login attempts?

  • How to find string in a file on Linux | FOSS Linux

    Sometimes you might need to search a particular word or a string inside a file. To do this, almost every text editor has some GUI implementation to help you out. But for Linux users, it is much more productive and convenient to do these searches from the command-line.

    In fact, Linux has a powerful and convenient command-line utility – the grep command for this purpose. Using this, you can search for a particular string not just in one file but multiple files for a more comprehensive search.

    However, before you can use the grep command, you’ll first need to know how it works and its syntaxes. And so, to help you out, we have put together a detailed guide on using the grep command to help you find strings in a file on Linux. Not just that, but we will also show you how to search for strings in files through the command-line text editor and the GUI text editor.

  • How to send Linux command output to a file - TechRepublic

    If you're new to the world of the Linux command line, then you know how eye-openingly powerful it can be. In fact, the sky's the limit with what you can do from the Command Line interface. But, sometimes you'll run a command and the output flies by so fast you couldn't possibly catch everything necessary to get the task done.

    This is especially so when the command is of the informative nature. When you're working remotely, or on hardware that doesn't allow you the option to scroll back through the output, what do you do?

    You can always pipe the command through the likes of less, so you can page through the output. What if the output of the command is too long, or you need to save it for later or share it with someone to get a second set of eyes on an issue?

  • Self-host a Ghost Blog With Traefik

    Ghost is a very popular open-source content management system. Started as an alternative to WordPress and it went on to become an alternative to Substack by focusing on membership and newsletter. The creators of Ghost offer managed Pro hosting but it may not fit everyone's budget. Alternatively, you can self-host it on your own cloud servers. On Linux handbook, we already have a guide on deploying Ghost with Docker in a reverse proxy setup. Instead of Ngnix reverse proxy, you can also use another software called Traefik with Docker. It is a popular open-source cloud-native application proxy, API Gateway, Edge-router, and more. I use Traefik to secure my websites using an SSL certificate obtained from Let's Encrypt. Once deployed, Traefik can automatically manage your certificates and their renewals. In this tutorial, I'll share the necessary steps for deploying a Ghost blog with Docker and Traefik.
