+Provisioning a file hosting server
+====================================
+
+Create the ssh authorized keys file.
+
+Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and change PermitRootLogin to without-password.
+Restart sshd.
+
+apt-get install vim nginx zsh python-lxml python-mechanize iotop htop smartmontools
+chsh -s /bin/zsh
+
+mkdir -p /root/staging /root/work/vim /srv/download /srv/manual
+
+scp .zshrc .vimrc  server:
+scp -r ~/work/vim/zsh-syntax-highlighting server:work/vim
+
+If the server has a backup hard-disk, mount it at /mnt/backup and edit /etc/fstab so that it is auto-mounted.
+Then, add the following to crontab
+@daily     /usr/bin/rsync -ha /srv /mnt/backup
+@daily     /usr/bin/rsync -ha /etc /mnt/backup
+
+Nginx
+------
+
+Copy over /etc/nginx/sites-available/default from another file server. When
+copying, remember to use cat instead of cp to preserve hardlinks (the file is a
+hardlink to /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default)
+
+rsync /srv from another file server
+
+service nginx start
+
