LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8
LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8
LC_TIME=en_GB.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG LC_MESSAGES LC_TIME LC_NUMERIC LC_MONETARY
  • Set ENCRYPT_METHOD SHA512 in /etc/login.defs and re-create password for root
  • Creat users (using adduser script)
  • # usermod -a -G wheel alan
  • ~/.bashrc:
source /etc/profile
[ -f "$HOME/.bash_profile" ] && source "$HOME/.bash_profile"
  • .vimrc, .vim/
  • $ ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
  • /etc/ssh/sshd_config
PermitRootLogin no
PasswordAuthentication no
  • Remove lilo
  • Upgrade kernel; /etc/rc.d/rc.modules.local, blacklist unneeded modules
  • Disable unneeded rc-files, e.g., # chmod -x rc.acpid rc.alsa rc.consolekit rc.gpm-sample rc.wireless
  • Configure a mirror and install all patches
  • # slackpkg install bash-completion
  • ~/.bash_completion
  • Install and configure slackpkg+
  • # /usr/doc/slackpkg+-*/setupmultilib.sh to configure and install multilib
  • # sensors-detect. Add modules for lm_sensors to /etc/rc.d/rc.modules.local
  • /etc/rc.d/rc.local
# Set all sensors limits as specified in the configuration file
if [ -x /usr/bin/sensors ]; then
  /usr/bin/sensors -s
fi

# Ensure the existence of /var/lib/dbus/machine-id
if [ -x /usr/bin/dbus-uuidgen -a ! -x /etc/rc.d/rc.messagebus ] ; then
  echo "Ensure that /var/lib/dbus/machine-id exists: /usr/bin/dbus-uuidgen --ensure"
  /usr/bin/dbus-uuidgen --ensure
fi
  • # slackpkg install ipmitools
  • /etc/rc.d/rc.modules.local
