Software :: Encryption And Latex And Windows/Linux Integration
Jul 13, 2009
Is there a simple latex-compliant text editor (gedit or something else easy to learn) for linux that supports reading and writing MS Windows files? It the editor doesn't support it, I may choose to wrap the files in "unix2dos" or something.
My girlfriend is about to start a new project at her MS Windows oriented university, and I'd love to set her up with latex (both there and at home) and linux at home. I'm aiming at having her SSH'ing into the university's systems, and use a simple text editor to edit her latex files that must be MS Windows compliant.
Furthermore, it's important that the files are encrypted. Is it possible to encrypt a folder on MS Windows at school, and decrypt it at home using linux?

I've a Lenovo G50-80T with W8.1. I want to install Debian 8.1 in dualbooting mode. I've done this other times without problems. But this time I want encrypt the Linux partition (not the Windows partition). I'll use dm-crypt to do that. I want to know if this way is secure for protect the data on Linux partition or if I need encrypt the entire drive.

With all the talk about disk encryption for Apple devices, I wanted to ask about how full disk encryption compares between debian linux and mac OS X. Is the code for debian linux fully available for people to inspect for flaws or backdoors? Apparently although part of the encryption code is available for OS X the full code for Filevault 2 is not public. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each method of encryption for each operating system?

I am a semi-noob on this and I have problems getting my emacs recognizing .tex as latex and even running latex-mode. Usually when you run latex-mode (M-x : latex-mode) emacs should switch to latex-mode, but nothing happens in my case. The menu bar still show the TeX options, highlighting remains the same etc.
I am running emacs 23.1.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.10.4), this is on a university system so I don't know much about it.

how to take a windows 7 install and intergrate it into linux. i like that wine integrates into the windows manager. but of course wine simply doesn't do what i want. i love linux because of complete customization. i like windows 7 because it runs the programs i use on a daily basis properly. i know there has to be some way this can be done. im getting tired of using windows 7 inside a virtual machine for varius reasons. i know there has to be someway i can combine linux and windows normally.

I am using dd_rhelp to recover data from a failed 80Gb hard drive with Windows XP and PGP encryption.
My question: How do you mount a drive encrypted with PGP under Windows on a Linux box?
My scenario...
1. I am new to Linux
2. I do not know the PGP passphase
3. I am using Ubuntu and Knoppix
4. I have another 80Gb drive as the target drive
5. Source (bad) drive /dev/sdc1 drive is attached via a SATA-to-USB adapter
6. Target (good) drive /dev/sda1 drive is installed in laptop
My Problem....
Copies data from source to target drive with many errors. When I view the files copied to the target disk they file names are gibberish (extend character sets for file names) with huge file sizes (up to 9Gb).
I plug the target drive into a Windows laptop and it does not recognize it, even though it was formatted as ntfs.

I have a problem using PGP encryption. I am running Windows 7 operating system. I have PGP working perfectly fine when running manually through DOS mode (cmd.exe): gpg -ase --always-trust --batch --passphrase myphrase --output c: estdir estfile.csv.pgp -r someword c:estdir estfile.csv
Now the problem happens when I am trying to run same script in Perl in the browser (Perl + IIS are installed locally on my PC). The error I am getting is: gpg: no default secret key: No secret key gpg: C:\testdir\testfile.csv: sign+encrypt failed: No secret key
From what I understand, the secret key is created under my user profile. IIS runs under some default user name, so it does not see the secret key. I am not sure how to solve this problem.

I would love to be able to use TrueCrypt consistently across all my machines, be they Windows or Linux. As it stands, I can do full-disk encryption with pre-boot authentication only on Windows.
I don't really understand why this is. Are there technical challenges specific to Linux/Mac that make full disk encryption harder? Does anyone know whether TrueCrypt will support this in the near future.
PS. yes, I'm aware that there are other options. My goal is to simplify my life here and use the one tool across all machines.

I've been wanting to do this for a while and after upgrading some of my pc components I decided I would finally try to dual boot with full disk encryption on both windows 7 and Ubuntu 9.10. I managed to encrypt the windows drive with truecrypt and that worked. I installed Ubuntu 9.10 using the alternate cd and everything but /boot is in an encrypted LVM. Each OS is on a separate SATA drive the windows is on sda1 and ubuntu /boot is sdb1.
To setup the dual boot I started out following the tutorial [url] but its for XP and versions of ubuntu that use grub not grub 2. I ran dd as posted and saved the files it produced from truecrypt. I then ran into some problems with grub reinstallation so I simply reinstalled Ubuntu 9.10 from scratch again. This put grub 2 on the computer. I've managed to get it to add a Windows 7 option.
However, when the option is selected truecrypt comes up and says that the bootloader is corrupted and that I need to use the repair CD I burned before I encrypted the drive. My question is does anyone have any experience dual booting using Truecrypt on Windows 7 and LUKS/dm-crypt on Ubuntu 9.10 with grub 2? And how would I get the boot menu to work? I'd rather not reinstall but if I have to I have images from right before I encrypted so it wouldn't be the end of the world.

I have a sitution that I am trying to set up.I have 2 email servers that run on Windows: one is for internal purposes, the other is external purposes.The external one will receive e-mail from the outside world, clean it up and forward it to the internal one.There are 2 Windows Vista machines and 2 Unix (OpenSuse Linux) machines.Since there can be only 1 email server per domain, I thought I would:
-> set up a local domain with ALL of the machines in it
-> set up a DNS server for the local domain
-> set up a MX record in the DNS server for the email
For the external machine, just have a Dynamic IP point to the Windows machine holding the external email server.Does this sound plausible? Does this make sense?How can one fix it so that a DNS under Suse is accessible from Windows?

I have a client in Pittsburgh that has a Mac server and a Linux (RHEL) server on a LAN. They have a Netgear FVS 318v3 router on which they had a VPN running. They could do this because they had the router configured for IP-SEC and they only had Mac laptops as clients. I'm told Mac laptops can be configured to connect to IP-SEC VPNs, but Linux (I have Ubuntu) clients cannot.
I'm told that we need an PPTP VPN, and that the Netgear can not act as an endpoint, but can pass PPTP traffic to one of the servers if we set them up as a PPTP server.
We hired two different network consultants to set up the VPN, but neither one is able to set up a VPN to allow both the Mac and Linux laptops to connect.
Why is this so difficult? Lots of companies have VPNs that allow any client to connect.
Would it be better for us to purchase a different router that can act as a PPTP endpoint?
Do I want the router to act as a PPTP endpoint, or would it be better for me to use the Netgear and set up a PPTP service on one of the servers? Or, is there some better solution?

I have Debian 8 with VBoxGuestAdditions (4.3.18). I can connect to this box from Win7 using RDP (mstsc.exe). When I connect from Windows 10 using mstsc.exe I've got error code 2308. I tried NoMachine, 2XClient, RoyalTS none worked.
W10 connecting with RDP to Linux server? If I would install xrdp onto the Linux server would it work for me?
Is it possible to connect from Win10 to Linux using RDP?

I have a SBS '08 server, and it handles all FSMO roles, and every service known to man. I'm trying to shift those to other computers, but we haven't got the capital for another server. I know Linux is a capable OS and has the ability to run DNS, but I'm not too familiar with linux. How could I set up DNS on linux so that it is a redundant DNS server?

I installed Scientific Linux 5.0 distro on my notebook, Dell 1558 (2.27 core i5, 4G RAM, 500G HDD, 512M ATI, win7).Unfortunately, I didn't backup my data on partiotions D, E, Now, I can't re-install windows 7 because it couldn't detect proper partition!Is there any way to remove linux and re-install windows 7 (or have both on the same hard disk) so that I can access to my data on partitions D, E,.By the way, I used "partition Wizard Home Edition v5.0" to re-format the partitions, but there were just disabled options. The hard dist became "Dynamic Disk", so I couldn't do any operation. Is there any solution to convert dynamic hard to static one and don't lost it's data?

i created an USB Ubuntu [10.04], that i want to keep with me. people sometimes ask me to hep them with all sorts of windows problems, and i wanted to have a usb linux, that i could load with all kind of tools/ software to help.So, i tried doing some research, into what would be most useful. Antivirus-wise, all the links pointed at Clam AV (i also found a pdf describing how to clean a windows drive from linux - will try that soon - if this thread gathers followers, I'll post the results).Do you have any ideas what could i install more ? different AV ? some defragmenting tool? I searched a bit, but on all kinds of forums people just said that linux did not need defragmenting. i know that, but i want a linux tool that defragments NTFS drives.

I wonder if someone could please direct me to a really simple guide to adding a Linux Mint 10 PC to a Windows XP home network that gives clear instructions for the actions to be carried out in both Linux and Windows XP? The Linux box is connected to the router by ethernet cable. I have tried the Samba Setup Guide [URL] but it ends cryptically with "Now you need to setup your Windows PC for domain logins" and none of the IT folk I have asked at work know what that means.
