First off, let me say that Tonido is an EXCELLENT piece of software for creating your own personal file server, cloud or backup system. Great job Tonido team! With that said, let’s install the damn thing!

Exporting All Databases Into Separate Files in Ubuntu 14.04
February 21st, 2015So today, I received a 1TB hard drive for backup purposes and decided to backup all 131 MySQL databases. I did a mydqldump of all databases but that was not good enough. What if I wanted to restore only one database?
VirtualBox Install Guest Additions
February 14th, 2015I installed VirtualBox on my Windows 7 machine at work to do Linux testing. The installation of Ubuntu 14.04 went well and in no time I had a working install. But then I noticed the resolution: 640×480. Argh!
Install Samba on Ubuntu 14.04
February 7th, 2015My neighbours and I watch movies every Thursday night. It’s our sofa night. So I decided to create a file server so that when we can’t make it, we can at least have the movie available for viewing at our leisure.
