How to Browse From the Linux Terminal With W3M W3M is a terminal web browser for Linux. It’s got a few tricks up its sleeve, including support for images, tabs, tables, frames and other features not usually included with terminal web browsers. If you’ve used Linux for a while, you probably remember using a terminal browser to Google up a solution for your hardware when the X server refused to load. Modern X servers have advanced far beyond this, but W3M and other terminal browsers can still be useful. Installing W3M W3M isn’t included by default on most Linux distributions. sudo apt-get install w3m w3m-img Basic Browsing W3M has quite a few command-line options, but none are mandatory. You can use the arrow keys to move the cursor around or click at a desired location to move the cursor there. Load a hyperlink by selecting it with your cursor and pressing Enter. Shift-B will take you back a page. Images in the Terminal W3M supports images, so where are they? Browser Tabs How did we ever live without tabs? Gmail in the Terminal
HowTo Use rsync For Transferring Files Under Linux or UNIX How do you install and use rsync to synchronize files and directories from one location (or one server) to another location? - A common question asked by new sys admin. rsync is a free software computer program for Unix and Linux like systems which synchronizes files and directories from one location to another while minimizing data transfer using delta encoding when appropriate. An important feature of rsync not found in most similar programs/protocols is that the mirroring takes place with only one transmission in each direction. So what is unique about the rsync command? It can perform differential uploads and downloads (synchronization) of files across the network, transferring only data that has changed. How do I install rsync? Use any one of the following commands to install rsync. Always use rsync over ssh Since rsync does not provide any security while transferring data it is recommended that you use rsync over ssh session. Comman rsync command options Further readings
SSH Public Key Based Authentication – Howto The SSH protocol is recommended for remote login and remote file transfer which provides confidentiality and security for data exchanged between two computer systems, through the use of public key cryptography. The OpenSSH server provides this kind of setup under Linux. It is installed by default. This how-to covers generating and using ssh keys for automated usage such as: Automated Login using the shell scripts.Making backups.Run commands from the shell prompt etc. Task: Generating SSH Keys First, log on to your workstation ( for example log on to workstation called admin.fbsd.nixcraft.org as vivek user). ssh key based authentication Create the cryptographic Key on FreeBSD / Linux / UNIX workstation, enter: ssh-keygen -t rsa Assign the pass phrase (press [enter] key twice if you don't want a passphrase). ~/.ssh/id_rsa : identification (private) key~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub : public key Now ssh server will not use prompt for the password. Deleting the keys hold by ssh-agent See also:
rsync parameters to copy new/modified files - Linux The best place to start is always a man page: What you are describing is essentially the default behavior of rsync, but your best bet would be to use -a, so your rsync would look like this: rsync -e ssh -avz --delete-after /path/to/stuff user@slave:/path/to -e Specifies the files will be sent through SSH -avz This is a combination of 3 options. --delete-after Will tell rsync to compare the destination against the source and delete any extraneous files after the rsync has completed. I would recommend doing a dry-run before actually running any commands on your production environment, to do this, just throw an "n" into the command: rsync -e ssh -avzn --delete-after /path/to/stuff user@slave:/path/to This will spit out what rsync _would_ do, but doesn't actually copy anything. -- Vincent Gerbino HostMySite Technical Support, Manager vinny@hostmysite.
