Welcome to Linux From Scratch!
Southern writes "Linux From Scratch (LFS) is a project that provides you with step-by-step instructions for building your own custom Linux system, entirely from source code.
Currently, the Linux From Scratch organization consists of the following subprojects:
LFS :: Linux From Scratch is the main book, the base from which all other projects are derived.
BLFS :: Beyond Linux From Scratch helps you extend your finished LFS installation into a more customized and usable system.
ALFS :: Automated Linux From Scratch provides tools for automating and managing LFS and BLFS builds.
CLFS :: Cross Linux From Scratch provides the means to cross-compile an LFS system on many types of systems.
HLFS :: Hardened Linux From Scratch focuses on building an LFS system with heightened security.

PHP Debug Console
Southern writes "What is the Debug Console?
The Debug Console is a tool for debugging and tracing PHP5 applications on productive servers without compromising the live-traffic.
With simple PHP functions you can inspect variables, watch changes in variables over the whole run time, measure partial run times, set checkpoints and write log files. Additionally, the Debug Console replaces the PHP error handling so that notices, warnings and errors are shown in a popup too, instead of displaying them in the application to be debugged.

Southern writes "Need to monitor Linux server performance? Try these built-in command and a few add-on tools. Most Linux distributions are equipped with tons of monitoring.

The commands discussed below are some of the most basic commands when it comes to system analysis and debugging server issues such as:

Install Internet Explorer 7.0 in Linux with IEs 4 Linux
Southern writes "Linux only: You can now install Internet Explorer 7.0 in Linux with the latest beta release of IEs 4 Linux, which has made some major improvements since the last time we covered it. IEs 4 Linux now includes a graphical installer and gives you the option of installing Internet Explorer 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 7.0 and the Flash plugins. Like the last version of IEs 4 Linux, you will need to install wine and cabextract beforehand. It took me several attempts before IEs 4 Linux was able to successfully download everything, but if you're looking to stay on the bleeding edge, IEs 4 Linux can get the job done. IEs 4 Linux is a free download for Linux only.

New cool list of Linux must-have programs
Southern writes "It's been approximately two years since I've written the first article, A (cool) list of Linux tools. The article proved quite popular with my audience, as it allowed Linux users, new converts in particular, a quick taste of some of the more useful programs available for Linux platforms, across a range of categories.
Since, a lot has changed. Two years is a long time. I have decided to write a new article, from scratch, cataloging an up-to-date collection of must-have programs. To make it even more interesting and useful, I decided to add screen-shots wherever I can and link to tutorials explaining the use of these programs.
So, not only will you have a nice list compiled, you will also have a preview of what they look like and detailed instructions how to configure them!

Something To See - SouthernWolf.Net
papamike writes "
I know of a website that I frequent allot and I can tell you right now that if you haven't been to Southern Wolf's website then you owe it to yourself to go.
There is a topic on just about anything that anyone would want or need to browse when doing research on a topic. It just plain out amazes me that anyone could build such an informational website like his.
