I am! Well, sort of. I never really learned how to write scripts to automate anything, so I have severely limited myself. I do know a lot of common commands and how look stuff up in man pages. I am comfortable just not competent with linux CLI.

I guess I have my work cut out for me. I will probably reinstall the OS, something more lightweight. Since I am making a server I would like it to be headless. It is an older machine, HP Elitedesk G1, so it is small and gets loud when it does anything.

Thank you!
