CopyPasta

For doing basic setup of an LXC (or pretty much any Linux VM...):

Note: You CAN copyPasta groups of commands all at once. BUT: in this case, everything indented (after su - yourname) needs to be pasted AFTER that command has run.

• apt update
• apt -y upgrade
• apt -y install sudo vim curl mosquitto-clients
• wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/RootStuff/DOT.bashrc -O .bashrc
• wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/RootStuff/DOT.vimrc -O .vimrc
• mkdir bin
• source .bashrc
• apt -y install gnupg tmux ### Optional...
• adduser yourname
• adduser yourname sudo
• su - yourname
  • wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/UserStuff/DOT.bashrc -O .bashrc
  • wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/UserStuff/DOT.vimrc -O .vimrc
  • mkdir bin
  • source .bashrc

Useful console display for Proxmox Virtual Environment

• apt update
• apt -y upgrade
• apt -y install tmux htop
• cd /usr/local/bin
• wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/PVEStuff/bin/TMUX-console -O TMUX-console
• wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/PVEStuff/bin/TM-guestlist -O TM-guestlist
• wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/PVEStuff/bin/TM-clusterstatus -O TM-clusterstatus
• wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/PVEStuff/bin/TM-systemstatus -O TM-systemstatus
• wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/PVEStuff/bin/TM-UPSstatus -O TM-UPSstatus
• wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/PVEStuff/bin/TM-FixThis -O TM-FixThis
• wget https://www.nerdmage.ca/Downloads/PVEStuff/bin/TM-ShowMe -O TM-ShowMe
• chmod +x TM*

You will need to edit TM-UPSstatus to match local configurations (i.e. UPS name).

Running TMUX-console at the console will create a formatted screen of useful system information that you can reach by attaching to the tmux session from a terminal (SSH) session.

Installing Brave Browser

Installing TP-Link Omada SDN Controller on a Debian-based LXC

(Debian 12, 4GB RAM, 4 cores)

Start with the prerequisites:

• sudo apt update && sudo apt install openjdk-17-jre-headless jsvc curl gnupg -y
  • wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.1-1ubuntu2.1~18.04.23_amd64.deb
  • sudo dpkg -i libssl1.1_1.1.1-1ubuntu2.1~18.04.23_amd64.deb
• curl -fsSL https://www.mongodb.org/static/pgp/server-4.4.asc | sudo apt-key add -
• echo "deb [ arch=amd64,arm64 ] https://repo.mongodb.org/apt/ubuntu focal/mongodb-org/4.4 multiverse" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mongodb-org-4.4.list
• sudo apt update && sudo apt install mongodb-org
• sudo systemctl start mongod.service
• sudo systemctl status mongod
• sudo systemctl enable mongod

Install SDN:

• sudo wget wget https://static.tp-link.com/upload/software/2023/202312/20231201/Omada_SDN_Controller_v5.13.22_Linux_x64.tar.gz
• tar zxvf Omada_SDN_Controller_v5.12.7_linux_x64.tar.gz
• cd Omada_SDN_Controller_v5.12.7_linux_x64
• sudo bash ./install.sh

or (Tho this seems to fail weirdly whenever they update the version while the tar.gz version doesn't):

• wget https://static.tp-link.com/upload/software/2023/202312/20231201/Omada_SDN_Controller_v5.13.22_Linux_x64.deb
• sudo dpkg -i ./Omada_SDN_Controller_v5.13.22_Linux_x64.deb

CERTS!!!

You'll need to have your proper certs downloaded & then mess with making a .PFX file from them...

(Really, just Part B, Step 1 at that link.)

Then install/update via the UI & fully reboot the server/VM/LXC to activate it... :(
