this will make it so you can ssh user@hostname instead of ssh user@ipaddress.
this works with scp and sftp also.

lisi,
hopefully this is to the list and not private.
for your home network -
/etc/hosts
add the ipaddress followed by the hostname

one thing that i've learned is that you should get in the habit when cping or
mving is to add a ./ when copying, moving into a directory.
i.e.
cp /home/lisi/downloads/whatever.jpg

script kiddies messing with ssh on my server at the time.

it's not any modules that i know of. only using re for the three scripts that

i can't make anything crash.

no errors.
is anyone having problems with their deb testing systems?
i have a python3 script that isn't giving any output where the other linux
systems that i have tested it on are.
other systems have differing versions of python and what looks like gcc also.
i'm thinking that it's something to do with
well thank you then ric. glad it's not after hours or i would be doing the
same thing.
no, i just noticed it today, and i can run the script on my other virtual
machines without issue. it's just the debian testing that is the problem.
whether i am calling -- python3 script or python script,
yeah, i don't know what to say. started to use my stable virt for working on.
it's just the last part of a list comparison that's bothering me.
if you have journalctl going you can check out the scripts

hello everyone,
have been a linux only person since before 2000 (late 2.2 early 2.4 kernels),

gene,
it depends on what distro that you are running for the different init levels.
0 - shutdown/shutoff, i believe this is the same across the board
1 - single user mode, usually root, also rescue mode, no networking. for
debian, this is what you will boot into when your system doesn't boot

they are basically the same thing
man telinit -
DESCRIPTION
telinit may be used to change the SysV system runlevel. Since the
concept of SysV runlevels is obsolete the runlevel requests will be
transparently translated into systemd unit activation requests.
man init -
why do the sym links in ls -l / point to /boot/ and boot/

is this just a fluke in the way that the two of them were made?

yes i know that these, updating documentation, can take a considerable amount

don't know how many different set ups that you have going on in the boondocks,

something else that you could use is 'locate'
it's on most systems nowdays and it updates each night from cron. it's not as
cpu intensive and you can update is quickly with 'updatedb'.
if you're just searching removable media, as in your /media/... example then

try and take a look at 'journalctl -b 0'
that might give some info or you can look at '/var/log/messages' and/or
'/var/log/syslog'. those last two kind of depends on how your systemd is set
up.

quick question for you.
if you wanted to have stretch, why did you install jessie and then upgrade
instead of just installing stretch?
https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
i've personally found it's better to just install the testing image right away
instead of doing a dist-upgrade.

i have a couple of different logins to my vms for some reason that's why i have

what i did was to mkdir $whatever on the host machine.
and then on the vm's i made the same dir $whatever, on the vm i then put

i did not log in as root.
just used root to call $USER@hostname
