Server setup

This is a collection of config files and scripts designed to get a vanilla Ubuntu server up to working speed as quickly as possible.

Contents

This will set up:

• fish shell
• tmux, w3m
• emacs-nox with ESS
• Julia 1.5.3
• R
• .gitconfig
• .ssh/config

Procedure

1. Create a new user with root privileges:

   sudo adduser <user>
   sudo adduser <user> sudo

2. Log out, then log in again as the new user. Clone this repository and run the setup script (you will be prompted for your password):

   git clone http://git.synoikos.de/git/daniel/server-setup.git`
   cd server-setup
   ./setup.sh

3. Launch emacs and run M-x package-install to install julia-mode.

Installing Julia locally

If you just want to install Julia, and do not have root privileges, run ./install_julia.sh.
