Setup Google Apps For your Personal eMail

I was realy surprised on how easy it was to set up hosting using google apps. Fisrt of all, all we need is just go here and fill out the application.

if you’re using it for family, private user or non-profit organisation google apps is freely to use. Of course we can Upgrade to Google Apps Premier Edition for bigger storage at 25 GB per user.

The first step of the application is to enter your domain name, if you already have one. Or you can buy a new domain name through Google which automatically sets everything up for you.

Securing MySQL traffic with stunnel

To encrypt a connection between a mysql client and a mysql server, run two instances of stunnel, one on client site and other on MySQL remote site

Here’s steps how to do it

# wget http://www.stunnel.org/download/stunnel/src/stunnel-4.27.tar.gz
# rpmbuild -ta stunnel-4.27.tar.gz
# rpm -ivh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/stunnel-4.27-1.i386.rpm

Create stunnel.pem cert on server site

# openssl genrsa -out privkey.pem 2048
# openssl req -new -x509 -key privkey.pem -out cacert.pem -days 1095
# cat privkey.pem cacert.pem >> /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem

Set the proper permissions on the resulting private key:

# chmod 0400 /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem

Set the proper ownership of the stunnel chroot dir

# chown nobody:nobody /var/run/stunnel
