I've been wondering if I should get myself a website on a Rackspace cloud, but I'm not sure if I can keep the same static IP if I delete/copy server instances.
I currently have a physical box at home with dynDNS, but it's pretty old (p3 800MHZ, 196MB ram), which is quite a bit slow for my git repositories that I started using for everything, so I'm slowly configuring XEN guest, and for that matter I want to get a proper LDAP & Kerberos setup for authentication.
I currently have GIT+SSH/TRACK/APACHE/ and I want to get GIT/GITOSIS/REDMINE/NGINX/DJANGO/whole bunch of other stuff/ with everything authenticating against separate LDAP server.
Perfections seems to be the enemy of good.
Actually I really like site format as ~50 page reference seems to be really useful, or something that you could take on a long car trip and casually look into.
I think that maybe programming and Make examples were unnecessary -- they don't really give any idea about what to do with the language and don't present any paradigms or quirks that you might need and there are much better short tutorials on that topic out there. All in all, this wouldn't save you if you got to write something in C++, but this would definitely help if you need to remember some unix command that's just slipped your mind.
Though they might have included stuff for LVM to 'file system' section, LVM commands are more or less intuitive as they are.
Wow, wait, I don't get it. You can copy from anywhere to anywhere with just one set of public private key.
for example, copy file from local machine:
scp some_file.tar.gz alex@remote_ip:~/
now copy the same file from a remote to the local machine:
scp alex@remote_ip:~/some_file.tar.gz ~/
But seamless logins form anywhere to anywhere in the way you described seems like a bad idea, unless you are willing to implement kerberos, ldap and nfs4, in this way you can just log in into a client machine using your existing credentials (see PAM) and if you have your home directory property mounted you can have public/private keypair on that machine. But this is a lot of work.

Yeah right, this all looks like a private correspondence expressing personal opinions, and how the hell this thing could be treated as sinister?
I think that's cute. Google tries to be cool in their adds and I think they succeed at that, there's something close and personal(duh!) in every one of those.
