> Linux is one of the most flexible operating systems on the planet. There is very little you can't do with Linux… even automate tasks using a simple command line tool.
> The tool in question is called cron and it allows you to schedule jobs for the Linux operating system.
> When you run the sudo command in Linux, it remembers the password for 15 minutes by default, determined by the timestamp_timeout variable in the /etc/sudoers file. So during this time, you can run any other sudo command without providing the password. It prompts for a password again after 15 minutes of sudo inactivity.
> However, you can tweak the default timeout period and make it longer or shorter according to your preferences. You can also configure it in a way that it always asks for a password or ask for it once per terminal session or system boot. Here’s how you can do this.
> In this video, we are looking at how to install Moshi Moshi Rewritten Desktop on KDE Neon. Enjoy!
> In this tutorial, we will show you how to install UrBackup on Debian 11. For those of you who didn’t know, UrBackup is a free and open-source network backup and disaster recovery software. It is designed to back up and restore files, folders, and entire systems. urBackup also provides a web administration interface, which makes it users easier to set up and configure. urBackup available on Linux, Windows, macOS, and BSD.
> This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the UrBackup on a Debian 11 (Bullseye).
> In this tutorial, we will show you how to install UrBackup on Debian 11 (Bullseye), as well as some extra requirements for UrBackup
> Linux is a very powerful operating system. Although having that much power at your fingertips might give you the impression that Linux is quite challenging, modern Linux distributions go a long way to proving that assumption wrong.
> Take, for instance, the hidden file, which is a file that is not visible by default. The file is still there, unencrypted for anyone to view, so long as you know where it is and how to view it.
> That brings up an important point. Hidden files are not password-protected, so anyone can view the contents of the file, so long as they know how.
> Because of that, you should not keep sensitive information (such as bank accounts and passwords) in these files. Although you're tucking those files away from the casual viewer, any user with even the slightest bit of Linux experience will be able to view those files.
> In this post, you will learn how to mount Windows shared folders on Linux. You will be surprised how easy it is. Let’s get started.
> One of the most common situations we face in a network is file sharing. Although many sysadmins may not like it, it is often the fastest way to share information within the organization.
> Previously, we have explained how to install and configure a Samba server which is an important method for this purpose, but being a server, it requires a central Linux machine.
> How to do it the other way around? That is to say that it is Windows that shares the folder, you will see.
