.. _how-to: Ubuntu Server how-to guides *************************** If you have a specific goal, but are already familiar with Ubuntu Server, our how-to guides have more in-depth detail than our tutorials and can be applied to a broader set of applications. They’ll help you achieve an end result but may require you to understand and adapt the steps to fit your specific requirements. Server installation =================== The following installation guides are more advanced than our getting started tutorial, but can be applied to specific scenarios. If you are looking for a more straightforward installation, refer to our :ref:`basic installation ` tutorial. .. include:: installation.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: **The Server installer** The Ubuntu installer now has its own documentation for automatic (or "hands-off" installations). For more guidance on auto-installing Ubuntu with the installer, refer to these guides from the Ubuntu installer documentation (note: these pages will redirect you outside of the Server documentation). * `Introduction to Automated Server installer`_ * `Autoinstall quickstart`_ * `Autoinstall quickstart on s390x`_ Virtualisation ============== .. include:: virtualisation.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Containers ========== .. include:: containers.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Networking ========== .. include:: networking.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Samba ===== .. include:: samba.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Authentication and access ========================= Kerberos -------- .. include:: kerberos.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Network user authentication with SSSD ------------------------------------- .. include:: sssd.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: OpenLDAP -------- .. include:: openldap.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Active Directory integration ---------------------------- .. include:: active-directory.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Databases ========= .. include:: databases.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Mail services ============= .. include:: mail-services.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Backups and version control =========================== .. include:: backups.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Web services ============ .. include:: web-services.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Storage ======= .. include:: storage.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Graphics ======== .. include:: graphics.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Managing software ================= .. include:: software.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Security ======== .. include:: security.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: WireGuard VPN ============= .. include:: wireguard-vpn.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: High Availability ================= .. include:: high-availability.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: Observability ============= .. include:: observability.rst :start-line: 4 :end-before: .. toctree:: ..
