Ubuntu Server Tips

[Alexander Kraev]

Hi Dave,

Just finished the Russian translations. There is also a typo in the tip #24:

"Ubuntu Server Tip: Use "pastebinit" _top_ copy a file, or output of a 
command to a webpage allowing you to share it with others. e.g. 
"pastebinit /proc/cpuinfo" or "df -h | pastebinit""

s/top/to/g

Regards,
Sasha
