The likely culprit is encryption. If this is all on a local network segment and you can forgo the security aspect: -e "ssh -T -c arcfour -o Compression=no -x" ~Steven On Fri, Jul 11, 2014 at 3:58 PM, ToddAndMargo wrote: > Hi All, > > I have a bash script for synchronizing a flashing drive (t

You may want to start researching truecrypt in place of LUKS (Linux Unified Key Setup). As it spans the Operating Systems much better and seems like a better tool for your situation/use case. On Tue, May 6, 2014 at 3:56 PM, ToddAndMargo wrote: > On 05/06/2014 12:38 PM, Serguei Mokhov wrote: >

The advise so far is to not only patch up, and restart services/hosts; but to also revoke the certs and create new ones. As the vulnerability left no trace of its happenings in any logs - and someone who was actively exploiting it could still use the private key or other ill begot materials. Just

I'm currently on Fedora 20 (Heisenbug), and still have a /var/log/messages. I would add that the old messages are still there - and journalctl simply brings another method of finding the information you're looking for. journalctl -b is equivalent to dmesg. ~Steven On Fri, Jan 31, 2014 at 2:10

1) There isn't a paid support channel so far as I know of, so some people tend to look down on it.
