Transferring files with netcat {nc}
Why? If you ever are in the situation of being stuck behind a firewall or VPN connection and want to transfer a file from the machine inside the VPN or firewalled back to your local desktop.
On the server we’re going to pipe the output of file through cat and set netcat to listen on port 4009
# cat file-i-want-to-send.ext | nc -l 4009
On my desktop im going to open a nc session to port 4009 and redirect the output to a local file.
# nc server.ip.address 4009 > file-i-want-to-recieve.ext
And viola! you can verify the file is intact by doing a md5sum on the server and compare it to the one locally
On Server
# md5sum file-i-want-to-send.ext
# e4ef527eac8f5afe26d8464a963694ad file-i-want-to-send.ext
On Client
# md5sum file-i-want-to-recieve.ext
# e4ef527eac8f5afe26d8464a963694ad file-i-want-to-recieve.ext
CentOS 5.5, exim, dovecot with MySQL & SquirrelMail
So this is a little guide I pieced together from various sources on the internet, hopefully it helps someoone when making a similar setup.

Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat USB install problems
I finished downloading ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso , and successfully created a USB startup disk using the utility in my 10.04 desktop. Now for some reason after trying to boot from it im faced with a boot error “Unknown keyword in configuration file” . After some googling I found a fix posted on Trent Scott’s Blog.
After creating your usb startup disk with the ubuntu 10.10 iso file, open the file syslinux.cfg in the syslinux folder.
look for the line “ui gfxboot bootlogo” and change it to “gfxboot bootlogo”.
save the file and you’re good to go.

So decided to go with ASRock ION 330 dual core atom at 2.6ghz fully specd out for 1080p playback
Very nice package for the price and I threw a SSD in the box for no moving parts (besides the 30mm and 80mm fans ) for airflow.
Im installing Ubuntu 9.10 and XBMC, so installation of 9.10 was pretty standard, XBMC repository needs to be added to the apt sources, and this can easily be done by a few commands below.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc xbmc-standalone
I ran into an issue of when I put a DVD disc in there was no way for me to eject it cleanly, and also took me a good ten minutes to find the location of Play DVD from the main menu, so after a bit of digging around I found a guide on XBMC forums on how to add items to the home page.
Basically to add items to the menu system with Confluence skin, you will need to edit this file
/usr/share/xbmc/skin/Confluence/720p
and find the section with the Videos and other items and add the following code
<item id="16">
<description>PLAY DVD</description>
<label>PLAY DVD</label>
<label2>PLAY DVD</label2>
<visible>System.HasMediadvd + !Skin.HasSetting(HideDVD)</visible>
<onclick>XBMC.PlayDVD()</onclick>
</item>
<item id="15">

Disk imaging with netcat and dd with ubuntu linux
Want to create a disk image of a system but write it on another hard disk? This can easily be done with the help of netcat and dd.
For this example you will need two computers connected on the same network, and enough room on one machine to hold your disk image
Destination Machine
So we’ll start off this example by preparing our destination machine to listen on tcp port 4444 via netcat. The port is arbitrary so you can really pick any port that is not being used. Just have to make sure that its the same on both ends.

NOTE: you will have to push CTRL+C to cancel out after this is completed, as the netcat session will still be active.

30867456+0 records out
15804137472 bytes (16 GB) copied, 739.395 s, 21.4 MB/s
^C
If you want to find out the status of dd during the copy theres a couple of ways to do this, open up the system monitor in Ubuntu Linux, and it should tell you the transfer rate. Launch iostat or ifstat through a terminal. Invoke a command from terminal to get dd to display the current progress .
Viola, we’ll now have a dd image of our disk or partition. I like to verify the exact size of the file matches the size output from fdisk.
Destination Machine

Display dd progress during dd in ubuntu linux
Started a dd but wondering what the progress is? I haven’t found a way to do a verbose mode for dd, but this command seems to do the trick.
Lets start off by creating a dd of /dev/sda1
mnk0@tree:~# dd if=/dev/sda1 of=my-dd.img
We’ll need to find the process number of our dd which can easily be done with the following command.
ps -ef | grep dd
we’ll get something like this
root 31733 31268 54 10:44 pts/0 00:01:55 dd of my-dd.img
Now we can run our command to find the status of this dd. Open another terminal session.
kill -SIGUSR1 31733
and looking back at our dd page we should see dd dump out a status of its current progress.
mnk0@tree:~# dd if=/dev/sda1 of=my-dd.img

ubuntu 9.10 nvidia monitor settings dont save
Was having the issue of not being able to save my dual monitor configuration with a default installation of 9.10. The xorg.conf seems to be unable to be parsed by nvidia-settings tool, so to get around this we can run nvidia-xconfig to reset the config file to something that it can work with.
sudo nvidia-xconfig
after that
gksudo nvidia-settings
and we can save to xorg.conf successfully.
Data recovery the quick and easy way with ubuntu desktop linux 9.04
Ever had a failing disk? Using some hard drive recovery tools we can make salvaging our valueble data something possible.
Using dd_rescue we are going to make an image of the hard drive onto a reliable storage area, then we can run whatever filesystem recovery utilities we want.
The beauty of ddrescue is that it is fully automated and will rescue all the blocks that it can read successfully on the first pass, and with any bad blocks it will come back and retry as much as possible.
Install ddrescue tools
sudo apt-get install ddrescue
Connect the failed disk to your system
By either plugging the drive directly into system, or using one of those usb enclosure or slotted drive device you’ll need to have your failing hard disk connected and unmounted before we can begin.
sudo dd_rescue /dev/sdb disk-image.img
mnk0@earth:~$ sudo dd_rescue /dev/sdb disk-image.img
[sudo] password for mnk0:
Summary for /dev/sdb -> disk-image.img:r: 0.0k, succxfer: 228352.0k
dd_rescue: (info): ipos: 229376.0k, opos: 229376.0k, xferd: 229376.0k
errs: 0, errxfer: 0.0k, succxfer: 229376.0k
+curr.rate: 26249kB/s, avg.rate: 28391kB/s, avg.load: 13.5%
We can now mount this image on our system and take a look at the files.
mount -t ext3 -o loop disk-image.img /mnt/tmp

First and foremost we need to have mplayer installed, if your on a ubuntu-debian based system use the following command
to install mplayer, if not then you can download the appropriate packages and install them.
apt-get install mplayer
Lets make a home for our script file, and set the appropiate permissions
mkdir ~/scripts; touch ~/scripts/playme.sh; chmod +x ~/scripts/playme.sh; gedit ~/scripts/playme.sh
Paste the following code into your new script file, if you keep your Music files in a different location then change the variable musdir to match your setup.
#/bin/bash
# VARS ##########################################
tmpdir='/tmp'
musdir='/home/osamad/Music'
filename='playlist.m3u'
# CODE ##########################################
find $musdir -name '*.mp3' -o -name '*.ogg' 2>/dev/null >> $tmpdir/$filename
mplayer -playlist $tmpdir/$filename -shuffle -loop 0 -radio volume=80
Using find we build a list of all our mp3s, in this case we have multiple types of media files we want to play so we can specify that by adding the -o -name flags and add them in.
- -playlist ;flag we set the playlist file we just created
- -shuffle ; enables shuffle mode
- -loop 0 ; enables loop 0=forever
- -radio volume=80 ; set the default volume to 80% (use * or / to adjust when playing)

Gnome Do, with Docky in Ubuntu Ibex 8.10 setup guide
I recently found out about an amazingly slick desktop dock, called Gnome Do. Not only is it great looking, but its functionality is what sold me on this one. With the ability to launch any app, from the launcher simply by typing the name Gnome Do has totally converted me.
I set this up on my Ubuntu Ibex Desktop with a couple easy steps.
Adding repository to Apt
Open up a gnome-terminal window, and then lets open up the file /etc/apt/sources.list . Paste the following into your terminal.
gksudo /etc/apt/sources.list
Copy and paste the following repositories at the end of your file in gedit.
# GNOME DO ######################################################

Adding GPG Key to apt (Optional)
1. Open up gedit then copy and paste this PGP key to a text file, gnome-do.key and save it
