Actions and Events
Actions and Events are used to apply configuration changes and most of them are fired through the panels of the server-manager. An event can consist of multiple actions.
To fire an event from the SME Server shell you simply type
signal-event event-name
To reboot your server for instance you would type:
signal-event reboot
More information about [Actions] and [Events] can be found in the [SME Server Developer's Guide].
Custom Templates
Custom templates allow for site specific overrides of normal behaviour.
For example make a change to the firewall.
mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq cp /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq/35transproxy \ /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq/ nano -w nano -w /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq/35transproxy signal-event remoteaccess-update
