View 14 RepliesI don't know if this is a configuration issue or a hardware issue, but I have a Kinesis Advantage USB keyboard and for some reason the F3-F5 keys aren't responding as they used to. They don't respond to anything and, when I tried using F5 on Emacs, it said <XF86AudioNext> is undefined, so I guess it's a weird mapping problem.
Any idea how I could remap them to the original meaning?
I'm running Debian (Squeeze) and I have a toshiba portege m700. It has five buttons on the front just under the screen, which are the only ones accessible when you flip the screen over into tablet mode. One of them is for rotating the screen, and another is for switching to external display. I want to remap the remaining three to control, alt and super so that I can use shortcuts with the stylusThe problem is, when I used showkey to find out the key codes, I found out that each button generates more than one key code:Button 1:
key 126 press >> super_r, although this is distinct from the actual super key (125)
key 7 press >> 6
key 7 release
key 126 release
Facing this issue where I need to ssh from a solaris server to Linux server.The flow is as below:
-Oracle Webserver on solaris server (oracle user) initiates a cgi script
-The CGI script then executes a shell on the solaris server that tries to ssh to linux server
Have already tried the below:
-Checked the permissions for the .ssh and related folder/files
-authorized keys updated correctly
-tried alternative ssh login from another user which works fine
Issue could be-
-I must try the first login manually, where I'll need to enter password and then the solaris server will get registered in the known_hosts of the linux server
-Cant do this because I donot have the oracle user access.
Please suggest a work-around to the issue that can be done from my end.
Or is it that I must simply ask the DBA to execute an ssh from their ends?
Just wondering if Ubuntu has an Accessibility equivalent for sticky keys and mouse keys.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIm running ubuntu 9.04 remotley via ssh, using putty on a windows computer to control it. I want to redefine one key (I have a swedish keyboard where I have to press AltGr+key to get a tilde sign, would be better if I could get the tilde without AltGr modifier).
I read about xmodmap and xev. Using them I succesfully redefined the key for x-programs. For example if I start firefox over ssh and press the key I get the correct key. But in the terminal session the changes does not take effect. Which is probably logical since xmodmap does only work on the x-server. But how do I redefine the keys for terminal use?
At first I thought that the following command will restart my sshd server:
/etc/init.d/sshd restart
but there is no "sshd" server in this directory.
How else do I (re)start the ssh server? How can I get the version/release number of the sshd server? Where (in which directory) should I put SSH keys?
I would like to encrypt and decrypt zip file using OpenSSL keys. I have generated the keys and can encrypt normal text files but if I try to encrypt the zip file, I get error: "Error reading input Data" Following is what I have done.
generate keys:
Code:
openssl genrsa 4096 > private-key.pem
openssl rsa -pubout < private-key.pem
openssl rsa -pubout < private-key.pem > public-key.pem
encrypt the file:
Code:
openssl rsautl -encrypt -pubin -inkey public-key.pem -in test.zip test.zip.encrypted
I must use public/ private key pair (without any password) and I must use OpenSSL. But I can use any algorithm other than RSA (not sure which one to use and how).
I've got a slight issue with logging into my server using public keys.
It was working fine, until I had to rebuild my desktop machine. I had the key copied to the server, and passwordless logins where fine.
However now I have rebuilt my desktop, I cant get to the login.
So heres whats happend.
Rebuilt id_rsa.pub, server will not allow login. Remove id_rsa.pub and the server allows password based login.
On the server, removed authorized_keys and known_hosts. makes no difference. Server still disallows keyfile, but will allow password when id_rsa is not present on the client.
Heres a -v of the login chat with keyfile
Code:
michael@eve:~$ ssh -v server
OpenSSH_5.5p1 Debian-6, OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: Applying options for *
debug1: Connecting to server [ser.ver.ip] port 22.
[Code]....
So, is there anyway of getting the server to forget the previous keys, it is remembering, As previousily said, I have completly removed the contents of ~/.ssh/ on both the clients and the server.
I am using Nautilus to connect to an external server. Currently, I use password authentication, and all works fine. I just type sftp://SERVER and the connection is established after providing the login credentials. However, I changed the server to only accept Public Key Authentication and disabled password authentication, and as a consequence I could not login using Nautilus anymore. Is there some way to make this work?

Naturally, I'd like my bash history instead of this. For root and my main user I have no problems. I have a few system users (who don't have a standard home directory) and this seems to occur with those users. For example, my amandabackups user has a home directory of /var/lib/amanda.
I'm in my terminal and do git pull, git push alot in a work day. On the server I'm pulling and pushing I can't do password less ssh the usual way by generating rsa keys.Is it still possible perhaps for me to enter my password once for a session and do all the git pulls/pushes I want?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm interested in storing my SSH keys and gpg keys on a smartcard for added security. However, I'm a bit uncertain on a few points, which are as follows:
How many keys can I get on a card? I assume both SSH and GPG can store keys on the card. Is there a limit to key size? I see a lot of cards saying they support 2048-bit keys, what about larger sizes? Hardware: can anyone recommend a card/reader combination that works well? I've done a fair amount of research and it seems PC/SC readers can be a bit iffy - is this your experience? Have I missed anything I should be asking? Are there any other hurdles?
I'm aware fsf europe give away cards with membership - I'm not sure I want to join, but... are these cards any good?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI use Thunderbird on Ubuntu Linux and have just upgraded to Ubuntu 10 / Thunderbird 3. One of my gripes however is that Thunderbird uses a number of shortcut keys that have no secondary key requirements, for example, "Mark as Read" is M. Not ControlM. Just M. Worse, "Mark as Junk" is J. Which means I sometimes inadvertently mark messages as Junk.
How can I customize Thunderbird's shortcuts so, for example, "Mark as Junk" is ControlJ?
I have a Mac keyboard where the Alt/Win (i.e. Option/Command) keys are inverted compared to a regular PC keyboard, and I'd like to swap them. I haven't had any luck with xmodmap so far. The standard configuration is as follows:
shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e)
lock Caps_Lock (0x42)
control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x69)
[code]....
On windows I have an autohotkey script which:
- Only works when caps lock is on
- Generates left, middle and right mouse button events when left control, menu and alt keys are pressed
- Allows holding the keys down (for dragging objects)
Is there an easy way of duplicating this functionality in linux?
I want the system to see a certain keyboard key as if it were another key. To put an example, suppose I want each time I type 'e' the system sees 't'. Can this be done?
