Ubuntu Remove Exim4

I’ve scoured over the net on how to permanently remove the Exim4 Mail Server from the Ubuntu OS and 
came across with this one command that did it. The other options that include purge with it didn’t work. So I’m sticking with this one since it is what made it work and I was able to reinstall Exim4 again.
apt-get remove exim4 exim4-base exim4-config exim4-daemon-light
Then just install Exim4 again with this command.
apt-get install exim4
If you are using an account that doesn’t have root access, add the command sudo first.

Install Java On Ubuntu
Posted by admin on

I searched through every Google search results and wondered why after updating my apt-get source list, installing Java in Ubuntu still did not work out. It turned out that my source list were lacking some sources in it. If doing this command
apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-plugin
will give you an error that package is not found, go to the source list at
vi /etc/apt/sources.list
and use your text editor to check if these lines are there.
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty main restricted
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty universe multiverse
If not, add them. Update apt-get again by typing
apt-get update
and then run the same command to install Java 6.
apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-plugin
Follow instructions during installation. To verify that Java 6 has been installed in your system, type
java -version
This post assumes that you are logged in with an account that has root access. If you do not and you are unable to execute any of these commands, add the command sudo.
