I just bought a server in the Cloud to run my development tools (i.e. SVN, JIRA, MySQL etc.). It is a 8.04 Ubuntu server with root access. So I need this server to work the way I want it, so here are the steps I took to prepare it:
1. Change the .bashrc file
I am so used to typing 'll' in the command line as alias for 'ls -lsa' that the first thing I changed was the .bashrc file to have the standard aliases enabled.
Type:
root@XXXCNN4730:/# vi ~/.bashrc
