I have a linux machine and I'm connecting to a server using its IP address. I go to the finder (Nautilus) address bar and type smb://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx then it asks for my credentials and I enter then then the server is mounted and I have access to its folders.



I wonder how I can run a terminal command on the server from the linux machine? The reason me wanting this is that I want to run iPerf on both the server and linux machine so I can check the transfer speed between the linux machine and the server.

If your server is set up for remote access just use the ssh command locally:



ssh xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx


You might need to specify the remote username if it's not the same as the one you use locally:



ssh remoteuser@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx


For further details there are many, many tutorials available on using ssh (and of course the man pages, such as man ssh).

  • @Tak that's right. It can't. That's why the next but one line asks, "Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?".

Postfix configuration issue with fips on centos 7; mailgun relay

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite I am trying to setup postfix to relay all mail generated on the local machine via SMTP to a mailgun relay. I have used the mailgun relay before with success on an ubuntu server, but I am migrating to a Centos 7 server which I will be running in FIPS mode. There error log is below, slightly sanitized. I have a small enough network that I choose to have each machine reach out to mailgun individually (this the loopback-only, 127.0.0.0/8 restrictions) and no firewall open port allowing smtp in to the machine. I assume the FIPS mode (and with it disabling of MD5) is causing problems, but I don't know how to overcome it or if it is even possible for tls_fprint to use some supported hash such as sha256 or sha512. However, the relay=none is slightly concerning since I have relayhost set, but perhaps that is because the smtp process is failing? Any help would be appreciated! postconf -n: alias_database = hash:/etc/alia
