Packages: openssh

Client config: /etc/ssh/ssh_config

Server config: /etc/ssh/sshd_config

What is SSH?

Notable config options:

Port # default port(22) is sometimes blocked on networks X11Forwarding # Lets you connect to the X server(forward GUI apps) Banner # Display a message before logging in(warning messages are required in some countries), file /etc/issue.net is usually used for that. Alternatively you can show a message after login, simply edit /etc/motd for that. PasswordAuthentication no # Force use of SSH keys ChallengeResponseAuthentication no # Force use of SSH keys(default set to no?)

sudo systemctl enable –now sshd - Enable sshd service and start it, this is required if you want to host a SSH server so it starts at boot.

By default SSH server accepts user logins(root is disabled by default), but you might want to generate and use SSH keys instead.

Default crypto used is 2048 bit RSA. This is a sane default, you could possibly use 4096 bit RSA(or higher), which has diminishing returns. It takes about 8x more resources to decrypt 4096 RSA than 2048 RSA.

Consider using the newer Ed25519 cipher. Ed25519 is supposedly the best current option. There is no need to set the key size, as all Ed25519 keys are 256 bits. The only problem should be compatibility with old openssh versions.

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 - Generate a keypair - you'll be prompted for a filepath and a good|password] to secure the key. The passphrase uses AES-128 for encryption. You probably don't want to use a passphrase though, so just leave it empty.

ssh-copy-id -i ~/SSHkey.pub -p 1234 hostname.org - Copy the public key to the server via SSH. In the example there is specified file path, port and hostname/IP.

By default the public keys allowed to connect to your machine are saved per line in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys

Cool thing that SSH can do is port forwarding:

ssh -L 0.0.0.0:20123:127.0.0.1:80 username@192.168.122.254

Let's say I'm running a webserver on 192.168.122.254 - this command would forward the port 80 to port 20123, only for 127.0.0.1, so you could look at the website via http://localhost:20123 from the host machine you executed the ssh command on! You can of course replace the host(127.0.0.1) with whatever and forward your traffic through just for that website.

ssh -R 0.0.0.0:20123:127.0.0.1:22 username@rys.pw

This is remote mapping instead - executing this would forward the host's port 22 to the remote server's port 20123 - useful if ISP is blocking ports and you want to forward something through another server!

Dependencies: cmake

git clone https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin.git dolphin-emu

cd ./dolphin-emu

To update the local copy in the future without repeating the whole process, run git pull origin within the dolphin-emu directory and proceed to the following steps. Additionally to build a specific version of dolphin, get a commit ID by clicking on the exact version you want on the dolphin-emu site downloads and using git checkout b30bf5d9598c2498434aeee4de680f225c632428 - supply the commit ID you want instead. If you edited any files you can use the -f option after checkout to force redownloading the original ones.

mkdir Build && cd Build

cmake ..

CC=gcc-6.1.1 CXX=g++-6.1.1 cmake ..

-  or whatever version of gcc you have installed

Alternatively you can build dolphin with Debug flag instead to enable debug log level at the cost of some performance. CC=gcc-6.1.1 CXX=g++-6.1.1 cmake -D CMAKEBUILDTYPE=Debug ..

make

sudo make install

You can now run Dolphin-emu via dolphin-emu.

If you have real Wii motes: Dolphin uses its own drivers so do not install xwiimote or anything similar, do not use bluetooth GUI or anything, simply connect a bluetooth dongle and start the BT service via sudo systemctl start bluetooth if it isn't on already. Go to Controllers in dolphin-emu, set at least one Real Wiimote and check continuous scanning. On pressing 1+2 or the red sync button the controller should connect and vibrate.

Some chinese BT dongles might not work properly throwing various errors at you when you try to use them with Dolphin. Sometimes the wii motes just glitch out and you need to take out the batteries for a second to get them to connect!

You need to add ISO directory with your game ISO files to do so go to Config > Paths > Add… and select the directory.

You may want to go to Graphics > Enhancements and set the resolution to auto and use some AA and/or Anisotropics Filtering.

You should also go to controllers and check that the GC/Wii controllers are configured(You can always reset them to default).

Dolphin-emu has an awesome feature called Netplay, allowing you to play the games with your friends over the internet even though the games were meant to be played locally only! For that you'll need to have the exact same Dolphin-emu version, exact same ISO file(check file hash to know you do) and same Memory card save if you intend to use that.

Sadly Netplay doesn't work with real Wiimotes(yet…).

From my experience: some just don't work, some work weirdly, I'll try to list what I bought and where and how it works.

Dongle #1 - Works weirdly but after messing around with it for a bit I got both my wii motes to connect. Would not recommend.

Dongle #2 - Does not work with Dolphin.

Dongle #3 - works perfectly but I don't have an exact link, looks exactly like Dongle #2 but without any text on it or “golden” connector. Seems like it's USB 2.0 V2.0 BT dongle.

Dependencies: wine wine_gecko wine-mono winetricks

Wine is used to run Windows only executables on other operating systems. More information about Wine

You can have multiple Windows “installations” which are called prefixes. In fact it is suggested that you use a new prefix for each application you use.

~/.wine is the default wineprefix (a.k.a. “configuration directory” or “bottle”). You can change which prefix Wine uses by changing the WINEPREFIX environment variable (outside Wine). To do this, run the following in a terminal:

export WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-new wine winecfg

Alternatively, you can specify the wine prefix in each command, e.g.

WINEPREFIX=pathtowineprefix wine winecfg

you can create a new 32 bit wineprefix using the WINEARCH environment variable(note: you can also export WINEARCH). In a terminal, type:

WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32bit winecfg

Do not use an existing directory for the new wineprefix: Wine must create it.

Once a 32 bit wineprefix is created, you no longer have to specify WINEARCH in the command line to use it, as the architecture of an existing wineprefix cannot be changed.

You can use wine64 instead of wine to force 64bit.

There are three Direct3D backends for Wine. Which one you use depends on what features your card supports.

wined3d - The D3D backend included with Wine upstream. It is a translation layer that converts Direct3D calls to OpenGL and then sends them to your OpenGL GPU driver. Usable on all GPUs, but has the worst performance.

wined3d with CSMT - A multi threaded, more optimized version of wined3d. It has the same support as wined3d but is much faster. It still incurs a high CPU overhead but if your CPU is good it can help give you better FPS.

Gallium Nine - A native D3D9 implementation that skips the OpenGL translation entirely, requires less CPU overhead, but requires you use a GPU driver which has the GPU side support built in, which are all the Gallium mesa drivers (radeonsi, r600g, nouveau). Nouveau is the open source nVidia driver, but it lacks performance due to reclocking issues and it does not support the GTX10 series because they haven't released signed binaries to support it.

Shutter - Linux

ShareX - Windows, can also be used as a basic video recording tool

OBS - Windows, Linux(obs-studio).

Windows: SmoothVideoProject - It has a simple-to-follow installer.

Linux: SmoothVideoProject

Dependencies: lsof, mediainfo, qt5-3d, ffmpeg, vapoursynth, mpv-git(AUR), svp(AUR)

Pre-requisites(optional): proprietary GPU drivers already installed.

Download and install mpv-git from AUR

Set up mpv socket -

cat > ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf << EOF
input-ipc-server=/tmp/mpvsocket     # Receives input from SVP
hr-seek-framedrop=no                # Fixes audio desync
resume-playback=no                  # Not compatible with SVP
EOF

Note: There's currently a small bug in SVP causing video stuttering - go to SVP control panel > Utilities > Application settings; and play with the number of “threads” which are set to 0 by default. Setting it to 15 fixed the stuttering issues for me.

That's it, running movies through mpv while having SVP manager turned on will play them smoothly!

Additionally you can install SMplayer, because MPV alone has almost no GUI and relies heavily on CLI commands.

Dependencies: smplayer

Launch SMplayer > open Preferences > Advanced > Options for MPlayer/mpv and add this to Options

--input-ipc-server=/tmp/mpvsocket

Packages: rsync
Needs to be installed on both computers.

Using rsync over SSH and custom port:

rsync -avz -e “ssh -p PORT” path/to/folder/or/file domain.com:/copy/to/folder

-z flag for compression, -r flag for recursive, but that is already implied with -a, which preserves file permissions and such. (-a equals -rlptgoD (no -H,-A,-X))

Use destructive syncing – “rsync –del” – This will delete any items on the destination that are not present on the source.

Xen

QEMU

KVM

Hyper-V

virt-manager - start the interface. Make sure to do so after you're already connected to the internet, else it might use the wrong interface and you'll have no internet connectivity on the VMs.

virt-manager –no-fork - virtmanager will let you type passwords in the terminal instead of openssh-askpass or something like that

Create a new Virtual Machine using an .ISO image and default settings.

Now you should have a working BIOS VM. To create a UEFI one make sure to check customize install and select UEFI for firmware when creating a new VM.

Bi-directional copy pasting and drag-n-dropping files to a Windows KVM is possible by simply installing spice-guest-tools on the KVM(default virt-manager setup uses Spice for display, so it works out of the box)

To enlarge .qcow2 image, use command qemu-img resize ubuntu-server.qcow2 +5G Remember it'll end up as unallocated space

Tmux is a terminal multiplexer, meaning you can SSH somewhere, run tmux there and disconnect without killing whatever you were running, or just have multiple terminal tabs without actually launching more terminals.

Full cheatsheet: http://hyperpolyglot.org/multiplexers

Tip: tmux running a session but list-sessions doesn't show it? This might help killall -s SIGUSR1 tmux

If you're running nested tmux sessions, explanation and tips how to do it efficiently. (CTRL+B twice to get into the second level session, thrice to get into third level etc)

Command to detach all other sessions(in case the window is small and other session is blocking resizing): attach -d

Basic usage:

tmux - start new tmux session

tmux ls - list active sessions

tmux a -t sessionName - attach to specific session

tmux kill-session -t sessionName - kill specific session

Inside of tmux:

CTRL+B d - detach session

CTRL+B % - split current pane vertically

CTRL+B “ - split current pane horizontally

CTRL+B ARROW_KEY - move between panes

CTRL+B+ARROW_KEY - resize current pane

CTRL+B z - toggle current pane fullscreen state

CTRL+B x - kill current pane

CTRL+B c - create a new window

CTRL+B n - next window

TLS 1.0 being deprecated 30th June 20181

All versions of nginx as of 1.4.4 rely on OpenSSL for input parameters to Diffie-Hellman (DH). Unfortunately, this means that Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (DHE) will use OpenSSL's defaults, which include a 1024-bit key for the key-exchange.

 Samba requires a Linux user account - you may use an existing user account or create a new one.
 Although the user name is shared with Linux system, Samba uses a password separate from that of the Linux user accounts.

Mounting every time is tedious though, let's add an entry to fstab to mount it on boot. First we'll need to store the credentials safely though.

sudo nano /mnt/credentials

sudo chmod 600 /mnt/credentials - secure it so it's not readable by anyone but root or owner.

sudo nano /etc/fstab - and add this line at the bottom

//192.168.1.10/dolphin /mnt/dolphin cifs auto,x-systemd.automount,_netdev,credentials=/mnt/credentials 0 0

mount -v - list all mountpoints

mount -t cifs - list mountpoints by fs

-c specifies to encrypt symmetrically(symmetrical is harder to crack than asymmetrical), defaults to AES-128 which should be secure enough for now and the near future. AES-256 seems to be noted as 30-40% slower, so if you don't mind taking that performance hit feel free to use that instead(but I do suggest reading why you'd want to do that first as AES-128 is possibly enough for you).

Encryption with a password and AES-256:

gpg --batch --cipher-algo AES256 --passphrase password -c file #Forums suggested using --yes too but it doesn't seem to be required?

Decryption with a password:

gpg --batch --passphrase password -o file -d file.gpg

If you are not going to be using an automatic script for encryption/decryption, you can simply omit –passphrase password and you will be asked to enter it manually.

The above example is not secure because any user can execute ps aux and see the whole command, including the password.

Now let's do it better!

nano password.txt - write your super secret password there

sudo chown root:root password.txt

sudo chmod 700 password.txt

Encryption with a password in a restricted file:

sudo gpg –batch –passphrase-file password.txt -c file #Forums suggested using –yes too but it doesn't seem to be required?

Decryption with a password in a restricted file:

sudo gpg –batch –passphrase-file password.txt -o file -d file.gpg
