How to uninstall Webmin?

Just run the command

/etc/webmin/uninstall.sh

If you have installed the RPM version of Webmin, you can also use

rpm -e webmin

Or if you have installed the Solaris package you can use

pkgrm WSwebmin

How to uninstall LAMP?

Sometimes, we need to uninstall current Apache Mysql PHP collections and re install them. In this article I will show how to remove a LAMP system(for RHEL,Fedora, CENTOS):

1. Check the existence of LAMP system:

   rpm -qa | grep -i mysql
   rpm -qa | grep -i apache
   rpm -qa | grep -i httpd
   rpm -qa | grep -i php
   

2. If you get list then remove via rpm
   

   rpm -e "file name"
   

3. or with "yum -y uninstall"
   

   yum remove "file name"

Thats all :))

Mysql Nested Query Tweak

Do not use mysql nested queries for performance. Here I will share a little database table and two queries and their response times:
#Experiment is done by Mustafa TURAN(http://vpslife.blogspot.com/)#
#Experiment purpose to see how a nested query affects MYSQL Performance #
#Experiment Hardware:#
#--RAM: 1.5GB#
#--CPU: AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4000#
#Experiment Software:#
#--MYSQL 5(MYISAM)#
#--Centos5.2#
#Notes: 1k=1000#
Experiment tables
Table #1: links

database table : links(l_id, l_source, l_status, l_kb)

total rows: 220k

Table #2: filelinks

database table : filelinks(f_id, l_id)

total rows: 1500k

Nested query

Query: SELECT l_id, l_source, l_status, l_kb FROM links WHERE links.l_id IN (SELECT l_id FROM filelinks WHERE filelinks.f_id = 1);

Response: Showing rows 0 - 0 (1 total, Query took 2.9740 sec)

Inner Join(same query with inner join method)

Query: SELECT distinct(l_id), l_source, l_status, l_kb FROM links INNER JOIN (SELECT l_id as xL_id FROM filelinks WHERE filelinks.f_id = 1) xLinks ON links.l_id =
xLinks.xL_id;

Response: Showing rows 0 - 0 (1 total, Query took 0.0003 sec)

This example make you to see how dangerous using nested queries. I hope this experiment will save your CPU usage by MYSQL!

How to learn linux system(hardware) properties?

To learn system(hardware,sofware) properties linux has such commands:
Operating System Version:

uname -r

Memory Information:

cat /proc/meminfo

CPU Information:

cat /proc/cpuinfo

Easy Way(smart info):

uname -rs;less /proc/meminfo grep MemTotal;less /proc/cpuinfo grep
"model name"

Aktive System Resource Usages:
(all users and all activity)

top -s

(specified user)

top -u username

Change Hostname on Centos 5x

On terminal screen apply the commands:

vi /etc/sysconfig/network

Then change HOSTNAME=xxxx.xxx line to HOSTNAME=your_desired_hostname
You have to save the data and quit(thats all!):

wq!

Copy Remote Database to Local Database

Remote mysqldump

Run this one line command as a user:

mysqldump --opt --compress --user=REMOTE_DB_USERNAME --password=REMOTE_DB_PASS --host=REMOTE_DB_HOSTNAME REMOTE_DB_NAME mysql --user=LOCAL_DB_USERNAME --password=LOCAL_DB_PASSWORD --host=LOCAL_DB_HOSTNAME -D LOCAL_DB_NAME -C LOCAL_DB_NAME

Notes: You have to enable remote mysql on remote computer! (To do this you have to add ip address of local computer to remote computer's db remote access ip list)
