Specifying a port with scp The scp command acts a little different when it comes to ports. You'd expect that specifying a port should be done this way: [rechosen@localhost ~]$ scp -p yourport yourusername@yourserver:/home/yourusername/examplefile . However, that will not work. You will get an error message like this one: cp: cannot stat `yourport': No such file or directory This is caused by the different architecture of scp. It aims to resemble cp, and cp also features the -p option. However, in cp terms it means 'preserve', and it causes the cp command to preserve things like ownership, permissions and creation dates. The scp command can also preserve things like that, and the -p option enables this feature. The port specification should be done with the -P option. Therefore, the following command will work: [rechosen@localhost ~]$ scp -P yourport yourusername@yourserver:/home/yourusername/examplefile . via SSH and SCP: Howto, tips & tricks « Linux Tutorial Blog .

I have started to use RSYNC again to backup servers.  One thing that has been a problem with my initial synchronization of data is the dreaded error, Connection reset by peer I believe that I have resolved this time out error by adding the following changes to the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file on the server that is making the connection to a remote host. ClientAliveInterval 300 TCPKeepAlive=yes The ClientAliveInterval will to send data across the connection every five minutes. I know that this is not a good method to use for very long.  I will change this to use this method after my initial server copy is complete.

Gillionville Road 20 mile loop by wormlelo at Garmin Connect - Details . This is a nice road to ride on.  This week I have been riding on it when the winds are blowing in from the west.  I get to ride for 10 miles directly into the wind.  then when I turn around I get a nice tail wind back to my house.  today there was not any wind, but it was hot and humid.

Well, after a long absence and much gnawing and gnashing of  teeth with my hosting provider I have reached a solution that gets my Photo Archive back on the Internet.  I started my experience with the Internet back around 1995 with a small HP desktop server and DSL in Portland, Oregon.  I am happy to say that I am back to running my own server out of my home in Albany, GA.  I am using a few new tricks, like Dynamic DNS so I do not have to pay for a static IP address and I am running a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 server instead of a free Linux distribution. Hardware is also using a few new tricks.  I have given the boot to software RAID of Fake RAID.  I have a hardware RAID controller with a OS array 500GB on RAID 0 and the data is on 3 TB RAID5. Hope you check the archive often as I will be loading up all 10,000 images over the next few days.  And I'll be adding new current photos as I take them.

To check which mode you’re currently in run this command in Terminal:systemsetup -getkernelbootarchitecturesettingTo set your machine to boot into 64 bit mode enter this command and reboot:sudo systemsetup -setkernelbootarchitecture x86_64To set your machine to boot into 32 bit mode enter this command and reboot:sudo systemsetup -setkernelbootarchitecture i386One oddity I’ve found so far is that on some machines that were upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard this command doesn’t appear in systemsetup. Do a man systemsetup before running it to make sure you have the Snow Leopard version of systemsetup via Mac Stuff » Switching between 32 bit and 64 bit mode in Snow Leopard .

Palmyra Oakland Loop by wormlelo at Garmin Connect - Details . I had a fun ride yesterday. I got dropped on Palmyra road again, but I did enjoy riding into the headwinds with my aero bars.

Osama bin Laden Killed: Breaking Details - The Daily Beast . OK the evil bastard is dead.  If the American populace wants to blame Osama bin Laden for all of the bad luck and economic woes for the past 10 years, OK we got him back.  I know this day of celebration for some is no way near the replacement for loved one lost in the 9/11 disaster or the two wars that we are fighting.  I do think that I will have to believe the US government's statement that they did kill him and dump him in the ocean. I think that a watery grave is fitting for Osama since he will not have a place on this earth to mark his grave.  I'm usually not such a warmonger, but 9/11 really got my anger riled up.  The US has done a lot of goofy stuff, but we have also bent over backwards to help just about every country on this planet and look what thanks we get.  So as far as I'm concerned I do not care if the rest of the world does not like us for a few decades because we spent 10 years hunting down the ...

rdesktop -u lcwormley -d asurams -k ja -g 800x600 192.168.25.40 What is this command?  Well for me the holy grail for any desktop computer operating system is to be able to connect back to a Windows box.  As a system administrator i always have to be able to get to network devices or servers.  Microsoft has always thwarted RDP clones by adding features that break them.  I am  happy to discover that Scientific Linux 6 has Rdesktop included by default and from the command line interface I can connect to a Windows box.  Of course I am using the less secure RDP on my Windows 7 desktop, but there is still hope.
