ClarkConnect: Turns an Average PC into a Powerful Network Server
http://www.linuxlove.org –
Ever wondered if it’s possible to get a full-featured server for your network that provides all the popular daemons (apache, mysql, ftp, mail, samba)? How about acting as a gateway at the same time by offering a secure firewall, intrusion detection and prevention rules, traffic shaping and bandwidth monitoring tools? Well, it is possible but unfortunately the time to install all of this takes an overwhelmingly long time - about 30 minutes.

Installing MyDNS And The MyDNSConfig Control Panel On Fedora 8
http://www.howtoforge.com –
In this tutorial I will describe how to install and configure MyDNS and MyDNSConfig on Fedora 8. MyDNS is a DNS server that uses a MySQL database as backend instead of configuration files like, for example, Bind or djbdns. The advantage is that MyDNS simply reads the records from the database, and it does not have to be restarted/reloaded when DNS records change or zones are created/edited/deleted. A secondary nameserver can be easily set up by installing a second instance of MyDNS that accesses the same database or, to be more redundant, uses the MySQL master / slave replication features to replicate the data to the secondary nameserver.
