| 17:18.01 | Bonez39 | greetings |
| 17:21.12 | emcnabb | w0rd |
| 17:27.49 | Bonez39 | emcnabb: just curious what chat client you use, or that is most popular here? |
| 17:28.43 | Bonez39 | I am using xchat..I wonder as I believe in the past, when working on a problem..that someone would just have me enter something here.and it would pull system information needed, and display it here..without having to cut and paste.. |
| 17:29.19 | emcnabb | I use xchat, but I don't know much about IRC |
| 17:29.51 | Hanuman_ | I use irssi, but I don't know much about IRC either |
| 17:31.30 | Bonez39 | hmmm ok..thanks |
| 17:31.53 | emcnabb | I just screwed up my virtual terminals when messing with a cuecat; I have to do 'chvt 7' over ssh to get X back instead of ctrl-alt-f7 |
| 17:32.07 | emcnabb | oh well |
| 17:32.46 | Hanuman | thank goodness for ssh |
| 17:33.14 | Bonez39 | ssh, eh? something else I really need to learn about... |
| 17:34.46 | emcnabb | has anyone tried to use GAIM's IRC stuff? |
| 17:35.59 | Bonez39 | emcnabb: I have that switched on in my GAIM...but I never get any irc messages when running GAIM.. |
| 17:36.07 | Bonez39 | likely don't have it configured right.. |
| 17:36.16 | Hanuman | no - I've grown to really like text/curses irc |
| 17:37.01 | Hanuman | you'd be amazed what you can do over ssh |
| 17:38.38 | Bonez39 | Hanuman: what do you recommend for reading..and learning about ssh, to set it up and use? any sites to look at? |
| 17:38.42 | emcnabb | I have GAIM talking to me on xchat |
| 17:39.00 | Bonez39 | I'd like to be able to set up my linux box at my office, so that I can access it from anywhere, securely... |
| 17:39.12 | Hanuman | ssh is usually installed by default |
| 17:39.17 | *** join/#utah emacnabber (~emcnabb@12-255-28-7.client.attbi.com) |
| 17:39.27 | emacnabber | hello? |
| 17:39.27 | Hanuman | are you accessing from a Windows or Linux box? |
| 17:39.35 | emacnabber | I'm using gaim baby! |
| 17:39.36 | Hanuman | hey emacnabber - is this gaim? |
| 17:39.38 | emacnabber | yeah |
| 17:39.38 | Bonez39 | it would be accessed from a windows box.. |
| 17:39.47 | emacnabber | it's actually pretty nice |
| 17:40.01 | Bonez39 | emacnabber: youa re chatting here with us from within Gaim? |
| 17:40.02 | emacnabber | not as fully featured as xchat |
| 17:40.06 | emacnabber | yup |
| 17:40.10 | Hanuman | Bonez39: download putty (look it up on Google), then just login using ssh |
| 17:40.12 | Bonez39 | cool.. |
| 17:40.14 | emcnabb | this is cool |
| 17:40.17 | emacnabber | oh yeah |
| 17:40.25 | Hanuman | just select the ssh function in putty and you're pretty much logged in |
| 17:40.30 | Hanuman | it's just like telnet, but secure |
| 17:40.43 | Hanuman | I recommend turning off telnet on your home machine if you're using it |
| 17:40.46 | Bonez39 | Hanuman: ok, download putty...to windows box...set it up and login using ssh? but what needs to be set up on my linux box first? |
| 17:41.30 | emacnabber | Hanuman: did you get that? |
| 17:41.35 | Hanuman | As long as port 23 is enabled on your firewall and ssh is running, nothing needs to be setup. Usually ssh is already working out of the box |

| 17:44.52 | *** join/#utah emacnabber (~emcnabb@12-255-28-7.client.attbi.com) |
| 17:44.58 | Hanuman | type "ps -ax |grep sshd |
| 17:45.05 | Hanuman | take off the first quote |
| 17:45.24 | Hanuman | you should get a bunch of /usr/sbin/sshd's or something like that |
| 17:45.48 | emacnabber | now I have it so I can just click on something in my buddy list and it connects me to #utah :-) |
| 17:46.17 | Hanuman | That is pretty cool - I may just have to switch from aol to gaim |
| 17:46.28 | Hanuman | does gaim have webcam functionality? |
| 17:46.40 | emacnabber | don't think so but I'm not sure |
| 17:46.40 | Hanuman | I like to chat with my wife and kids sometimes from work and see them |
| 17:46.41 | emacnabber | brb |
| 17:47.36 | Bonez39 | Hanuman: that shows sshd in /usr/sbin/sshd |
| 17:47.50 | Hanuman | it's running, then |
| 17:47.54 | Bonez39 | ok.... |
| 17:47.56 | *** join/#utah emacnabber (~emcnabb@12-255-28-7.client.attbi.com) |
| 17:48.09 | Bonez39 | port 23..is that used for telnet? |
| 17:48.20 | Hanuman | Bonez39: the only problems you would have is if port 23 is blocked for some reason |
| 17:48.28 | Hanuman | (if you have a firewall) |
| 17:48.40 | Bonez39 | I think that's switched off...as I was never able to connect to some irc servers..they would insist I be klined as a proxy server threat, having that port open |
| 17:48.45 | emacnabber | I love the message I get from Microsoft everytime I connect with gaim |

| 17:49.06 | Bonez39 | well, I don't have any particular firewall..I run through a Cisco 675 router/modem for my DSL connection |
| 17:49.11 | Bonez39 | is that then my firewall? |
| 17:49.43 | Hanuman | Bonez39: if you can block and open ports on it, then it is |
| 17:49.52 | *** join/#utah emcnabb_ (~emcnabb@12-255-28-7.client.attbi.com) |
| 17:50.00 | Hanuman | you'd have to look at the manual |
| 17:50.22 | Hanuman | Bonez39: do you get an internal address from it? |
| 17:50.45 | Hanuman | ie - does it assign your computer as 192.168.1.10 or something like that through dhcp? |
| 17:55.08 | Bonez39 | Hanuman: ok....I guess I need to unblock it...and then I can run and use ssh |
| 17:56.13 | Bonez39 | emacnabber: what port are you connecting with? my default is 6667 to irc.freenode.net |
| 17:56.21 | Bonez39 | yeah, it does that...with dhcp |
| 17:56.57 | Bonez39 | Hanuman: yes, it assings ip addresses internally |
| 17:57.58 | Hanuman | Bonez39: okay, what you'll need to do then is figure out how to forward port 23 to the computer you're trying to connect to remotely. |
| 17:58.35 | Hanuman | So, when you connect remotely through putty to the ip address of your router, it knows to send all ssh traffic (port 23) to your Linux machine |
| 17:59.05 | Hanuman | I imagine Cisco probably allows that |
| 17:59.21 | Hanuman | You'd have to check the manual, though - I'm not a Cisco expert |
| 18:00.58 | Bonez39 | ok..I'll check my manual on how to get that done.. |
| 18:01.05 | Bonez39 | it's a popular router and should have that.. |
| 18:01.27 | Bonez39 | here's another question..I have a two button mouse.and somehow, I can't use it to highlight and cut and paste here.. |
| 18:01.38 | Hanuman | That's a pretty common feature. Cisco's got a big enough reputation that I imagine it can probably do it. |
| 18:01.54 | Bonez39 | I can't cut and paste into irc...how do I set up my mouse to emmulate the three button, to allow for cut and paste? |
| 18:02.46 | Bonez39 | I have run through XF86config a few times, but haven't hit it right yet...the moust is a logitech two button bus mouse.. |
| 18:03.11 | Hanuman | Sometimes when 3-button isn't enabled, the right-mouse button does the equivalent. |
| 18:06.23 | Bonez39 | hmmm right button not responding to that.. |
| 18:06.41 | Bonez39 | no worry, more hacking... |
