Does anyone know of a good way to do remote administration of a Windows XP machine using just the command line? At the moment the only things it needs to do is to be able to install applications/patches, and transfer files to and from the machine, and installing registry patches would be nice as well. Currently we use a horrible hack...
I'm writing an SSH/Telnet client for the Blackberry (and for other hand-held devices). My question is more related to usability. Due to the screen size limitations for certain devices, and resolutions, how should I set the default rows/columns for the screen? Currently I am setting it to 80 columns. The number of rows is dependent on...
I am using SharpSSH (http://sharpssh2.codeplex.com/) to send files from a windows box(using C#) to a linux box. I use the Sftp class to create directories(mkdir command) and Sftp.put command to transfer files over to the Linux machine. When the number of concurrent users is large about 30 or more then the connections being to drop and t...
Still working my way around this, but is there any function/command I can use to set some simple variables? Logging into mysql is quicker when I'm already ssh'd in, but typing in the full connection string is a bit annoying. Any way to do something like: mysql ${variable} dbname Where variable would be something like -u user -p -h ho...
Okay, I've scoured google and I haven't found an answer for this. Not exactly programming related unless I was trying to use an ide over the session... I have servers at the same remote location; one is older running fedora 4 (P4 3.0Ghz) and a couple of newer server running Centos5 (Quad Xeon 1.6). I can run a remote X session on bo...
I'm having trouble calling rsync from java on windows vista with cygwin installed. Its strange as pasting the exact same command into a command shell works fine. My test java call looks like this. String[] envVars = {"PATH=c:/cygwin/bin;%PATH%"}; File workingDir = new File("c:/cygwin/bin/"); Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("c:/cy...
I am the de facto mac sysadmin for a few mac labs on a campus that is primarily Windows, and we have the Macs configured to do single login via Kerberos and get their directory info via LDAP and NFS. This works fine for someone physically sitting at the machine, but I am running into a brick wall when it comes to sshing into these machi...
I am doing ssh to server x1.example.com from a laptop sometimes from outside and sometimes from lan. From lan I just say ssh karl@x1 and from wan: ssh [email protected] But from lan I get always a warning: remote host identification has changed. I can delete the other key in the known_hosts file each time, but I was wondering i...

I'm using URLLoader to do a web request via HTTPS, and I need to know what signing authorities Flash trusts. I've determined that I can't self sign the key, but can't find any documentation from Adobe on who is a trusted signing authority. Does Flash use the browser's trusted authorities? If you're using AIR, what list does it use? D...

Hi all, what I want to do is to be able to mount via sshfs some files on the mainframe via USS on my local PC.

My campus only lets ssh access through a gateway server. So to access the cluster I am coding on I have to ssh to the gateway and then ssh to the machine I am working on. The connection is very slow at times and is frustrating to work on. I would love to use something like tramp which I understand would have the buffer open on my local ...
I have a macintosh at home and I can do an ssh through macintosh tools and then open up tabs for multiple connections. I have used putty and the free version of SSH Secure Shell. Are there any free SSH tools for windows that allow me to open new connections with tabs instead of a new window? ...

And I can ssh to another machine (ComputerA) which is faster, so I want to clone the code through ComputerA. This is what I did: ssh tunnel ssh tunnel MyComputer ------...

I am connecting to server A this way: ssh -p 22001 [email protected] and to server B: ssh -p 22002 [email protected] So I get 2 different host keys for t...
How can I convince that id_dsa is not stored in ~/.ssh when connecting to one particular host. The obvious question is why. The answer is this key is more sensitive and needs to be password protected while the other is used for automation. While this is not a programming problem, I would not be surprised to learn this requires a progra...

Is it possible to have an SSH session use all your local configuration files (.bash_profile, .vimrc, etc..) on login? That way you would have the same configuration for, say, editing files in vim in the remote session. ...
