This guide assumes you have a working Postfix server and want it to sign with DKIM.
There are a few things we have to understand to make all of this work though, which require you to be familiar with DNS as well.
1.) Install OpenDKIM
apt install opendkim
systemctl enable opendkim
2.) Edit /etc/opendkim.conf

This seems to happen in many different drivers but it happened more often in newer versions such as 530 vs 525.
Then nvidia-modeset goes to 100%
There are many reports of this appearing since driver 4.70 and I can confirm I've seen this in various machines.

Sometimes users take their removal drives and unplug and replug them to test what happens during the failure of a disk. However, this breaks things quite badly due to the /dev/mapper in LUKS not coming back online due to it not being closed.
In other words, generally with non-encrypted drives the process is smooth but when encrypted you may want to follow a strategy like this:

The easiest way for the current running kernel is:
update-initramfs -u -k `uname -r`
You could change -k to a specific kernel name if for some reason the current is not running (eg. if you are chrooted or in recovery mode).
If you want to update all kernels then use "-k all"
update-initramfs -k all -u

qemu-img can convert many formats.
Here is an example of how to convert different images to different formats for QEMU-KVM
The example above converts a raw windows2019.img file from QEMU to a Virtualbox .vdi

-f raw = this means the format of the source image (instead of raw it could be vdi, vmdi, qcow2 etc..)........

This problem has been around forever, Linux seems to think it is fine to use the r8169 driver for an r8168 NIC but this often causes problems including the link not working at all.
In my case ethttool shows the link up and detected but it simply does not work especially on a laptop that has been resumed from suspension. Sometimes it takes several minutes for it to work or to unplug and replug the ethernet.
Here is the solution:

I don't consider a lot of these "extra" kernel modules "nice to have" as they often contain drivers for essential items like your soundcard, your NIC and many other devices that may not work. Sometimes you may find that "sound" or "ethernet" worked before a kernel/OS upgrade and now in the new version they don't. Often it will be because you need to install the "extra" kernel modules.
One other weird thing is that sometimes........
If you've just installed VBox and it is not starting or working, the most common problem is usually that you don't have your kernel source installed, which means there is no kernel driver for vbox so it can't work.
You may get an error that says "Kernel driver not installed" in your Virtualbox.
So the first thing you should do is install your kernel source by running this:

SSH helps keep us secure in many ways, one of those is the host-key fingerprint which is unique. If you have been connecting to an SSH server that you've made no changes to and suddenly ssh warns that the key doesn't match then you have a problem.
But how about connecting to an existing server for the first time on a new machine or client?

Install Errors on Version 12:
This error happened on QEMU emulator version 2.11.1 pve-qemu-kvm_2.11.1-5
on Proxmox/Debian but installing on QEMU.12 on Centos 6 did not produce the error.

What really causes this even though you successfully install........
The strange thing is that usually the first install or two will work on any new machine but then it suddenly won't. I had this experience on QEMU 2.13 on a different machine. There is something finicky or buggy about the CUCM installer even when choosing the same virtual hardware specs.

When things go wrong your video is basically unplayable or the first video plays fine and then freezes when moving on to the next. Generally if both videos weren't produced with the exact 100% same settings you will have issues. You can try the basic concat but it often won't work right.

The solution is to run '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' and sometimes happens when upgrading VBox and the kernel modules don't get upgraded with it.

I dread updating the kernel and rebooting to find the Ubuntu graphics aren't working and you have to manually intervene. This is usually because Ubuntu for whatever reason didn't update the drivers you need (eg. the manually compiled Nvidia Kernel driver that MUST be recompiled for each and every kernel update unfortunately).
The most common reason may be that "linux-source" hasn't been installed automatically on my system. I tried to manually reinstall the........

The first thing you need to remember is not to check from the same host/server itself. This is a silly mistake I made, the reason is that many mailservers and especially postfix are configured to allow relaying from the localhost/same host. If you do that you'll get a false positive.
