I get them from dotdeb, yes. The primary advantage is that dotdeb has more up-to-date packages for nginx, and of course, has php5-fpm, which debian stable doesn't have. I wouldn't say they're any more or less secure though.
Is as secure as compiling the packages yourself. They patch vulnerabilities very fast also.
They? Dotdeb is single person project.
Idk
With a quite large community :-) Patch always came quickly!
nope, i get nginx from backports.
Just add to your squeeze /etc/apt/sources.list
and
same for tmux (terminal multiplexer, much better than screen), nsd3 and a few more packages
Same here.
And uwsgi and php-fpm from testing/unstable (yep, it's a minefield, I know)
It can break your package system,lol
he always do that for sure.. :P [/joke]
I do, I used to compile them myself but I realized I didn't get any more advantage since I'm just re-compiling what dotdeb offers with no extra options.
Plus now it's just 2 lines to update.
Me too used to compile everithing from souce, then I found dotdeb and switched to the precompiled. I manage a few web clusters (frontends nginx, backends php-fpm, mix of 32/64 bits servers) and with packages they are a bit easy to manage
S.
lol i always got mine from http://lnmp.org/ now i dont have to endure trying to figure out what those chinese characters mean
EDIT: so how do you setup a web server using this? on lnmp you just fetch the archive, extract it and run debian.sh
sudo apt-get install nginx php5-fpm mysql-server-5.5
done.
That's it? LOL i feel retarded
Took me a while to figure out that the sources overwrite the stock one too.
I get my PHP-FPM and MySQL packages from Dotdeb, but i compile my Nginx myself.
