SSH through VPN in c/linux4noobs@programming.dev

[-] Ponziani@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

But the router must forward the port to allow the VPN to be utilized , meaning that port being forwarded can be scanned/detected i thought?

This is the first that I have heard about setting the SSH port to only accept connections from the VPN, is there a term or something I can search about this online? Or is this basically just allowing port 22 open on a device and not forwarding the port on the router as when a different device tunnels into the same network through the VPN it can already talk to the first device?

But wouldn't the port being open alert anyone who looks for that? Network security is not my specialty but I believe I have read that people can ping/scan ip addresses easily and quickly to determine if any ports are open / forwarded, so if Wireguard was used or any VPN software, they could pick up on that as an attack vector?

Both require opening a port but theoretically ssh going through the vpn would mean port 22 does not need to be open/forwarded right, as opposed to both port 22 and whichever for the VPN open?

Hello I am wondering if there is increased network/packet security by connecting to a server over ssh through a VPN hosted by that same server as opposed to without first tunneling by VPN. I imagine with or without tunneling through a VPN there would be latency/speed differences too?

I'm looking for the same thing, simply an app that allows 2 people to edit a list with no ads. No luck so far.

Question on chown in parallel (sh.itjust.works)

Hello I am seeking a simple solution to running a list of "chown -R" " commands in script.sh

It takes a long time to sequentially execute all of these chown commands recursively because the directories have so many files. I want to be able to tackle the root level directories in parallel to speed things up. I imagine there must be a simple way to do this while keeping the list of commands in a single file. xargs and some of the other things I saw online looked like bad fits or would be over engineering this problem.

Can web elements be sandboxed in any meaningful way?

Are there any communities on Lemmy where bilingual people can communicate or practice? Specifically French. in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

You are right, and I have tried, however it is painful needing to translate while on a phone when there are so many different words i don't understand in a short sentence. Not to mention the slang and internet culture associated with posting online on memes and stuff.

I speak French as a second language (not fluently) and I am trying to find somewhere on Lemmy where people who speak French as a first or second language could communicate with me and people with a similar interest. At my level, just trying to go to French Lemmy instances or communities isn't practical, the proficiency difference is way too large. Are there any communities dedicated to what I am trying to describe? If not, maybe i should create something new where people just submit posts in French and people can have discussions on them to practice and build up their vocabulary. It could be like a centralized pen pal community.

Queens Gambit Declined vs Slav/Semi Slav in c/chess@lemmy.ml

[-] Ponziani@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

Do you ever see tactical opportunities in a typical semi Slav game? From the white side it seems to remain positional the entire time in my experience. I guess that's subject to change upon hanging pieces or blunders.

For black, between QGD and Slav/Semi-slav, which do you prefer and why? I am trying to understand what is appealing on both sides and why you make the tradeoff of potentially blocking in the your light square bishop. Personally, I respond with the Nimzo Indian as black, and when playing as white I hope for QGA or Catalan.

The explosion in popularity, personalities, and memes over the last few years has been awesome to see. in c/chess@lemmy.ml

Magnus is great, Naroditsky is my favorite though!
