During the running of the server I have learned much about how programs work and the running of the server. Whilst learning to tend to make a little mess of things here and there and for this reason I am going to reformat the server to do a fresh start. This will be the first time that the server has been reformatted since October because I have found Debian GNU/Linux to be so stable. I will compile the programs and kernel from scratch to give me the latest software. If things all go well the server should be back up and working within a few hours but if they do not go well I will reformat it again and go back to square one.
Because somethings are just hard to find online
