How to deploy stackscripts?
Im new to linode and linux a bit too.
Just wondering how to use stackscripts? I see these are batch scripts.
Do I have to upload the LEMP script as a text file to my server into a folder somewhere and then execute it?
Also do stackscripts only work from when the distribution (in my case ubuntu) is installed or can they be executed afterwards?
I see there is an area in my Linode manager where I can add a stackscript. What relevance does this have to executing it? Does it execute from here upon next bootup or something?

The scripts are added to a deployment (i.e. when you first install a distribution). The scripts are imported from your control panel, at

It might save me time rather than having to do LEMP install myself??
Is it worth going for the Ubuntu firewall stackscript?
I re-imaged my Linode to run the LEMP stackscript but was surprised when it started compiling everything from source… If I needed to update the softwares, how would that be done if it is not synchronized with the repositories?! (I am a Linux noob…).
Thanks,

ive been using apache for ages, but im v new to nginx and i cant see the point in learning a whole new system, and also dont wanna get down the line and find rewrites or something even more important doesnt work.
I think illl spend the time on optimising apache, bz a lot of peeps are saying that its just as good as nginx when optimised properly
