My third attempt to build a raspberry pi, it seemed easier to start a third page than refactor the last one. Here are my notes. I turned it off in August 22, and back on in Nov 2022. …
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
type nul > ssh<\/code> I used D:<\/code> to access the boot directory. I got the advise here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\nI then plugged the thing into the hub and power<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- I logged in using ssh<\/li>\n\n\n\n
sudo apt-get install git samba apache2 xrdp<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\nadduser ${newusername};<\/code> and then usermod -a -G sudo ${newusername}<\/code> and then sudo adduser xrdp ssl-cert<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n- Virtual Box VMs will need
ssh<\/code> installed, for more on VB, see here<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- I reinstalled the web site using ftp. In 2025,\u00a0I used the vfstpd package. I then used ufw to set an ssh rule and then restarted vsftpd & ufw. This page <\/a>helped, sort of.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- I reauthorised the hostname with noip.com and changed the firewall rule on the hub. I used whatismyip<\/a> to discover my pubic ip address. I reinstalled noip’s dynamic update client<\/a>. and copied down my noip service file and then
systemctl enable<\/code> ‘d it. (Need to checkit works after the next boot.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n- I restored the https certificates using these instructions<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- I set up \/share, using these instructions<\/a>., the service names are
nmbd<\/code> and smbd<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n- I removed the games, they are called code-the-classics<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
On three, but not on its rebuild<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- then
usermod -a -G videos ${newusername}<\/code> for Raspi Check<\/li>\n\n\n\n- I am still copying HUGO files, but if I wanted it on the Pi, then How to install Hugo on Raspberry Pi<\/b><\/a> will be useful although it uses snap which I have managed to avoid by now.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- I also found this about deluge and buster<\/a>, on deluge’s community forums which talks about the install and apt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A link to opentracke<\/a>r, a bittorrent index, and a git repo<\/a>, I write more about opentracker on my bittorrent page<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
I turned it back on today 12 Nov 2022<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n- I turned off
deluge <\/code>using systemctl<\/a>. i.e. service stop deluge && service disable deluge<\/code><\/li>\n\n\n\n- I installed the microsoft rdp client onto my tablet; it’s very slow. I also installed
Juicessh <\/code>& raspcontroller<\/code>. I can’t get Raspicheck <\/code> which is what I used to use, to work and it’s not available on the tablet, raspcontroller does what’s needed and I can issue commands using the ssh program.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- I amended
whatismyip<\/code> to cope with Pi outputs from ifconfig and fixed the menu option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- I looked at the cronjobs, I must use
run_aptjob -u<\/code> to do the upgrades in future, run_aptjob writes log files. It should be amended to also use logger.<\/li>\n\n\n\n- I installed an ssl certificate<\/a> which was a bit of a faff . Nov 2022.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
To do<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- I then looked at my check_aptrepo and checkfspct, and discovered that notify-send was not working. So I spent a couple of hours working on it, installing notification-daemons which seem not to work which I asked for help<\/a> on the PI community forums, although it seemed to fix itself or my mucking around with the base software fixed it. See also https:\/\/davelevy.info\/wiki\/notify-send\/<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- I have installed postfix on the virtual machine, and send a message between root and dave using mail. So
mailutils<\/code> is on the machine. See also https:\/\/davelevy.info\/wiki\/my-little-mail-server\/<\/a>. The next phase on mail involves installing on the real machine, working out the firewall rules. Installing postfix will need a robust naming solution on my internal network. (Or will it, will the hub and nip solve it for me. I need to workout how to fix a firewall rule.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\nBackups and Disk Cloning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
All the reading suggests that an appropriate image based cut and paste will work; it seems it needs to be image based to pick up the boot partition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- How to copy \/ clone \/ back up a raspberry pi microSD card image for retropie and raspbian<\/a>. a video by Mt Sujano, makes recommendations on the apps, Win32 imager to read, and Etcher to write.and on pimylife, How to Backup your Raspberry Pi SD Card<\/a>, additional sites that recommend using windows include, Easily Clone Raspberry Pi SD Card to Larger Card in Window<\/a>, or Backing up and Cloning your Raspberry Pi SD card in Windows<\/a>, the latter is using WDI.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- How to clone a raspberry pi sd card<\/a>, from linuxhint.com this is text based, app agnostic and proposes using Pi tools., as does this<\/a><\/strong> from all3dp.com,; it uses
SD Card Copier<\/code> which is accessed via the GUI and seems the best option. I found this page<\/a>, from pi my life up, on mounting an external micro sd, which should allow me to do a file based back up of v3 of my build.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\nExtending Swap<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
To extend swap on my pi<\/a>, and or an ubuntu 22 system<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nRelated Posts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- https:\/\/davelevy.info\/wiki\/raspberry-pi-part-deux\/<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n
