X forwarding vs Remote DISPLAY 43 weeks 1 hour ago

Hello, I have a question about X forwarding. I was told that we can't X forwarding anymore, do to a security checklist. Example:

Code: bitlord@server1# ssh -X server2 So we have to use the DISPLAY variable now. I thought this was less secure?

sftp file size differ 2 years 37 weeks ago

Hi,

I have one doubt over sftp.

I am trnasferring a file from server1 to server2 using sftp. The size of the file shows different in file 1 and file2 after sftp even though it shows same number of byte transferred.

I'm working on automating collecting disk space on a group of servers.

In a standard terminal, if I run:

ssh server1 ssh server2 df -h

Then I get the output of the command, just fine.

However, if I attempt this method from within a script using a For Loop. Then it fails.

Hi All, I am facing problem running a script which triggers another script in multiple remote servers.

Here is the following scenario: I have server1 and server2 and using sshfs I mount a directory from server2 on server1, let's say /mnt. Now, if I try to unpack a 50K files archive on server1:/mnt it takes 13 mins to complete while doing the same on server1:/local_dir will only take some 5 seconds.

I was wondering if there is any way/configuration that could speed up the things.

I hope this isn't too headache-inducing.

Two servers, server1 (Windows Server 2003, IP 192.168.100.25) and server2 (Windows Server 2008, IP 192.168.100.22).

server2 is the DHCP server and a DNS server.

Hello Folks,

I have two linux server accounts server1 and server2

From the terminal if I say this command,

Code: scp /source/folder/from/server1/unix.txt user@server2.com:/destination/folder/ Then it prompts for the password

Code: user@server2.com's password: I enter my password and then it starts copying.

Hi, I have a 60 GB file (tar file) in server1 and I have mounted server2 (using nfs mount) on server1 and then I am copying the file from server1 to server2. Even after 6 hours, the file copying is still not completed.

It has just copied 20 GB of file so far.

Please help me identify this issue.
