Use Xming on Windows to view X11 forwarded apps

Wednesday, January 7, 2009

Recently, I have had a need to use Windows more frequently (Windows-only games and ActiveSync!), but still have a high demand on my network at the same time. I have sought to be able to combine the best of both worlds. I previously relied heavily on Web-based applications, but my favorite Web Development IDE was [...]

The OpenSSL Vulnerability

Tuesday, May 20, 2008

I recently established my network to use SSH connections. My three Ubuntu systems I discovered were using weak keys that had been generated using the flawed packages.

Browsing SCP and SSH

Saturday, February 2, 2008

Now that I’ve gotten my SSH server installed and working properly, I’ve found a need for some tools to work with that secure shell.
