I want to run X11Forwarding support through my sshd, but the machine has direct Internet access. I would like to change the default port of 6010 to some other port number at the least, but ideally I would also like to have it only listen for localhost connections.




ssh x11

  • Because you've set other than default options or something else is listening not sshd.

X11 should be configured to only allow local access, and with xauth, so only the correct user can connect.



Then ssh can be used to connect to a remote machine, with ssh -X.

  • Yes, set your firewall to block it. And look at the X11 configuration.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
