Re: [Trisquel-users] How do I access my computer from anywhere in the world from another computer?
Sorry for my off-sheet comments, it was a big typo on my behalf. After all, Yes, you could use your smartphone LED lights to shine light through the fiber strands to check for continuity. Excuse me again, but my current response is only related to your fiber optic response. Call me Master optical fiber Troll. Sorry again!

Jodiendo has this way of posting here..so some people may think (and rightfully so) that he is troll! He is not! He is actually a quite normal and also kind old man. We spoke on irc several times and he is always cool and gentle. He likes to joke and btw his user name says it all.. :)
Re: [Trisquel-users] How do I access my computer from anywhere in the world from another computer?
1. install openssh on the computer you want to remotly log into sudo apt-get install openssh 2. port forward that computer at port 22(default for ssh) 3. logon from another computer with this command replacing the example ip adress with your routers externel ip e.g ssh root@77.23.11.22 now you can remotly connnect to that computer through the internet just make sure you have a strong password! i think there is a way if you search it to have remote desktops but i have not tried it

It's MUCH better to use SSH keys instead. I use ecdsa. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SSH_Keys

Use your smartphone as a fiber optic tester

How? It's possible right? Sorry for being naive but I'm not familiar with this.
Re: [Trisquel-users] How do I access my computer from anywhere in the world from another computer?
One common way is to use ssh. You setup a ssh server on the box you wish to reach and a client on the computer you sit at.
Re: [Trisquel-users] How do I access my computer from anywhere in the world from another computer?
What do you mean by “access it”?. That is not a definite inquiry, so I can only guess what you intended to ask. If you want to execute command line programs remotely, then look up “SSH”. If you want to see a desktop and execute graphical programs you can try to use VNC but for typical Internet connections it is going to be extremely slow and unresponsive, to the point of being unusable. Even high‐bandwidth Internet connections will not bring a good VNC experience when using them with computer near the other side of the world, the latency is too high. Only command line programs are usable (through SSH or similar) at distances in the order of magnitude of 10 000 km and it is still uncomfortable because of the high latency (what makes it more tolerable is that the way command line programs interact with the user typically is less affected by the delay). Note that using SSH and VNC requires the computer to be running, so you'd need to leave it on while you are away (I don't recommend this, it is risky and wasteful of energy), somebody to power it on, or use “wake‐on‐LAN”. Don't forget to use web search engines. Most of the questions you may have, have been answered thousands of times already.

Fiber optic tester? Whut?
Re: [Trisquel-users] How do I access my computer from anywhere in the world from another computer?
I'd probably just not do this then :) but would be nice to know just in case.
Re: [Trisquel-users] How do I access my computer from anywhere in the world from another computer?
Yes, I meant Jodiendo.

Who? The one who I asked about what an optic tester is?

Some cell phones (the term “smart phones” is very pretentious, they are only a disguised technological jail for the user) have a LED as a lamp that you can shine through the fiber in order to perform an elementary check for continuity (that it is not broken). Optical fiber testers do more than that. I am posting this to clarify, but this is completely unrelated to your question. Ignore all of his comments (including what he will probably post replying to this message) because he only posts nosense like this, in other words, he is a “troll”.

Thanks a lot! That really helps.
