If you have corrupt mysql tables you can run this command to automatically fix them. Just make sure you have enough free space. It general takes about double the size of the table to do the repair.

mysqlcheck –auto-repair -A -u -p

Turn on IP Forwarding in Linux

Posted on August 20, 2013 by

By default for security reasons IP forwarding is turned off.  If you are setting up a router or a vpn gateway you will need to turn it back on.  You can just run the following command to turn it on.

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
