Linux

We were migrating our server to the newest SuSE release. Based on previous bad experience we didn't want to upgrade the system, but instead install a completely new system and then migrate our data there. Here's the list of what we had to do to the default SuSE installation to migrate all our services and data:

1. Backup the albums, the working gallery code and dump the databases
2. Put all the Gallery sites into the maintanance mode
3. Get the newest full version of Gallery
4. Unzip the file over the existing version of the Gallery
5. Navigate as an admin to the main page
6. Run the updater
7. Run the cleanup script if necessary
8. Check whether everything works fine
9. Change the sites mode to active

When you allow Samba access to your SuSE 10.1 machine by using the YaST firewall setup tool, three changes are made to /etc/sysconfig/SuSEfirewall2:

1. FW_SERVICES_EXT_TCP="" is changed into FW_SERVICES_EXT_TCP="microsoft-ds netbios-ssn"
2. FW_SERVICES_EXT_UDP="" is changed into FW_SERVICES_EXT_UDP="netbios-dgm netbios-ns"
3. FW_ALLOW_FW_BROADCAST_EXT="" is changed into FW_ALLOW_FW_BROADCAST_EXT="netbios-ns netbios-dgm"

The respective portnumbers for the serveices are:
