Microsoft Windows 10 and newer have been shipping with the OpenSSH client pre-installed for some time now… 3-5 years. They also off the OpenSSH server but that is not installed by default and if desired, you can manually install that by Adding Windows Components from the Control Panel.
When I set up my MythTV box, I could not use SSH at all. I assumed that the SSH server was automatically built in to any and all distros.
I still never got GUI SSH Working.
love the video. i had one doubt. i had created one azure linux vm using terraform on top of that i am installing packages using ansible by remote exec inside terraform script now i am not able connect to remote server through hostname and my terraform and ansible is running in docker container . is there any way to connect to remote server with hostname for establishing a ssh connection.. Thanks in advane any video tutorial or blog is appreciated.
Where in MI are you?
In addition of changing the port you can also make use of port knocking to keep it hidden from port scans.
Please do a video on SSH certificates
Once you create your key on the local machine, if you want to move that key what is the best way? Keep it in sync with Syncthing across multiple machines?
You may also want to teach about the authorized_keys file as well as the ssh-copy-id command, because many server systems do not allow password logins. Some are key only, and a lot of first time users get tripped up with ssh keys. Also, disabling root logins in sshd config, and changing the listen port might be helpful too.
Love the new intro! Great to see the progression of the channel over the years 🙂
This has become my go-to channel for all things Linux
You mentioned your Linode server is in Canada whilst you are in the US – any issues there for businesses with data sovereignty requirements to remain compliant with data protection like GDPR et al?
An episode about LVM (Logical Volume Manager) would be cool.
And how can it be used to snapshot disks or even backup them.
scp should be in every ssh tutorial, often you just want to do that, copy files. Though scp is easy but cumbersome (lot of typing which could definitely be solved by the developer) to use it can be a bad experience to look up how to use it, I only found bad explanations both with written articles and a YT-video. The short version: it is like cp but now you enter the system-information (user@IP) before the : and the path after the :
👍👍👍
love it..
