When will Debian book Authors be publishing Debian 11 Bullseye System Administrator's Handbook?

2022-04-29 Thread Tom D.
Respected Debian Book Authors,

When will you be going to publish Debian 11 Bullseye System Administrator's
Handbook? I cannot wait to buy it from Amazon. I really need it.

Please publish it as soon as possible.

Is there any website or video site from where I can learn to be a Complete
Debian 11 Bullseye Administrator? Can you point me in the right direction?

Please let me know.

Cheers
Adrian

Re: Why has nouveau vs. NVIDIA problem not been addressed?

2018-11-15 Thread Tom D.
Thank you for your kind reply. I downloaded the driver from www.nvidia.com
for NVIDIA geforce GTX 678 video card driver.

It was a shell script with sh extension.

So until I blacklist nouveau completely from the Debian OS, Nvidia driver
won't install. As a result, I had to blacklist nouveau completely and do
other things.

One of the reasons for installing that driver is Cuda support on Debian.

So I was just saying if there were an easier method to choose between
NVIDIA's driver from their website or nvidia-package and disable nouveau
accordingly that would be great? Because Linux is about giving people
choice alternative options. Isn't it?

Sincerely
Adrian D'Costa

Most likely you will be automatically logged out after a certain time of
inactivity.

If you want to be sure you can ssh to the machine and run

ps -u $(whoami)

This will list all your processes. You should see an entry with "sshd"
in the command (CMD) field for every active ssh connection. You can kill
stale sshd processes with "kill PID" with PID being the process ID (the
first column in the ps listing).

echo $PPID

will give you the PID of the sshd process for your current connection.
If you kill that one you will terminate your session.

Another handy command to list all logged-in users is "w". (It is really
just one letter.)

remote user, putty ssh

2007-01-06 Thread Tom D
Hi people,
How do you log a user off that is logged into a server via putty / ssh when its 
connection has become disrupted for example a users internet connection has 
been dropped from their isp and their account is still logged into the remote 
computer even though they are offline.
When I'm logged in I dont know howto log the other account off, how do I do 
this?

Thanks
Tom
