You can also set static IPs inside containers or VM, which is best to avoid DHCP failures. Those can prevent system-to-system configs from working.

Lacking LVM at install time is sufficient reason why 24.04 won't see production here. Lots of enterprises will make similar choices or they will be forced to use ZFS (which isn't necessarily bad)...

If you can't ping, then no other protocol will work either.

To avoid package dependency issues that will happen in a few months. Didn't the paragraph after that statement say it clearly?

I've had problems setting up the manual partitioning in a way that was acceptable to the installer too. My only guess is they installer team figure if you are going to do manual installation, then...

What are the IPs for the container and the host?
Can the container ping the host IP?

I've never used macvlan. I use normal Linux bridges for my lxd managed lxc containers. I have to admit, I've...

Almost any Linux file manager supports sftp. Why use filezilla? I'm curious. Is this just left over from using that other OS?

Nautilus, PCManFM, Thunar, all support sftp in the URL and if you...

In over 30 yrs of setting up Unix and Linux systems, I've never, ever, guessed the correct amount of storage needed for any specific system.

Long ago, I never had enough. Every byte would be...

That is unknown, but it is not likely, as thousands of people have used the ISO successfully. We are making suggested based on what is likely ... which comes back to local issues. While it does...

If they care about security, then they wouldn't use RDP.

Some web browsers only work with remote DNS, so until you setup a public DNS service, something like no-ip.com, those browsers won't work. Google Chrome is famous for this and defauilts in firefox...

https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/accessing-tmp-from-snaps/22384 doesn't provide a solution to accessing /tmp/. Just says to use a different directory instead. Too bad.

Testify! Enterprises use NFS for home directories across many different platforms/architectures. Expecting them to change just for 1 OS is uncooperative, at best. I see the homedirs option, so...

Depends on the workload, but the general answer is 4.1GB for a desktop and 500MB for a non-GUI server that has RAM installed for the workload.

OTOH, if you are running a VPS business and want to...

Whenever I installed untested-by-Canonical drivers from nvidia, it turned out badly.
Stick with the drivers you have, unless there are big issues. If they are working fine, then don't touch them.

Both types of nameserver lines work fine, IME.

Make backups. Usually we do versioned backups and retain at least 6 months for low-risk servers and a year of backups for high-risk, internet-facing servers.

Test the restore to be certain you...

Kodi can be a complex system. It is tied to specific hardware, nearly unlimited inputs, and 500 possible addons. If you happen to have an addon that is having issues, then that can take a week to...

I haven't used rufus in 8+ yrs. At the time, it was having issues and the project wasn't updated for the new releases I cared about.

But we don't actually need any special program to create a...

xterm. small. lite, supports utf8. does the job. What do you want from a terminal? More code mean more bugs. xterms have been around 30 yrs.
Don't confuse a terminal with a shell or a CLI...

If you cannot ping your own domain, that has nothing at all to do with certbot. That's a network or DNS problem.

Certbot is a PITA.

I switched to acme.sh https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh perhaps 4 yrs ago and never looked back. The only times I've had issues with getting certs renewed was when I...

I don't actually use Kodi directly. I run OSMC (a specialized Kodi install) on a Raspberry Pi3/Pi4. Works great almost always.

I do something similar with my photos, but rather than trying to organize them too much with filenames, I keep them in order by leaving the numeric sequence alone. I will add metadata to the EXIF...

sudo apt install ./why*.deb
Don't type so much. Also, you could learn to use tab-completion.

BTW, installing a .deb file manually is near the bottom of the order for the "best way" to install...
