      What's the purpose of Pertino? you can specify rsync to run over ssh, the encryption and security of it should be just as good as a vpn.

      Technically, it actually is a VPN at that point.

        Because I can go from local to the web server direct, but from the web server to the local server I have to use Pertino because SSH isn't forwarded on that network, and I don't have the access I need in order to enable that, so the only direct access I have is via VPN. I could setup a pull on the local server, but whatever. It works the way it is, and the Pertino connection doesn't add enough latency to be concerned with.

          I've run into a situation where I need a communications app. I haven't looked at any options,.. but looking to use a session of my Dev1 to ssh a communications box. Like but not like AIM or etc.

          not sure why ,... but why not. I control it..

            For IM? Any XMPP/Jabber server should work.
            OpenFire is one of the popular ones, but there are many projects most are less suited for business use though. I believe both zentyal and zimbra have IM as well but never of which would run on any of the Dev packages. I'm not sure how well Openfire will run on a Dev1.

              I've been trying really hard to keep some things up-to-date on my project. This is a tabletop gaming blog I started not too long ago, it is hosted on a Dev 1 machine so it may be a bit sluggish.

              http://blog.orthelan.com/

              I've got two blog post in the pipe right now. Going to be working on more.

                Look at Openfire for a decent Jabber/XMPP server http://www.igniterealtime.org/projects/openfire/. I've played with it in the past and liked the functionality. If you want to do voice communication take a look at Murmur, open source voice platform like Teamspeak or Ventrillo. http://wiki.mumble.info/wiki/Main_Page

                  Newly baptised into the world of server Linux, VPS and 100% Shell, I started a journal thread here: http://mangolassi.it/topic/4230/nadnerb-s-c-c-project-journal.
                  Help and suggestions are welcome.
                  Ā 
                  I hope to write a blog post about this when I'm done/mostly done

                        It's easier than getting my landlord to grant me access to his FiOS router so I can forward 32400 to my router and thus to my plex server...

                          Then get your own internet service.

                            That is neither practical nor feasible at this point. Also, it makes no sense.

                                  It's a single resident house. The only option would be to do Time Warner, considering he already has FiOS, and that ain't happening...

                                      Why don't you think the owner will let you have access to the FIOS? If it's only for your rental house.. what harm is there?

                                        Because he's a paranoid stoner...try explaining the basics of how a port forward won't affect his network to a paranoid stoner...

                                          Using a Dev3 instance to build out a Staging system for MangoLassi! ML has gotten so busy, taking thousands of hits an hour, that we really need a staging server for testing changes. We have no slow time anymore and any downtime is thousands of 404s. So we need a more consistent, reliable process. This will let us look into making interface changes and other things that would be disruptive to test. I know... staging is a long time coming but we just haven't been that busy. Now we are really in the big time and need the ability to really test and customize.
