SSH is the backbone to how I’m able to work remotely.

Periodically, it’s important to review both my SSH config settings and regenerate my SSH keys.

From my perspective, Mozilla has put together the best recommendations for both server and client configurations. For now, I’m concentrating on the client configuration (within ~/.ssh/config and my SSH keys.)

As a remote worker in a rural community, I’ve found it difficult to find other technology workers in the area. After speaking with Brett, we decided to start the Norfolk Techies Slack group. If you’re a technology worker in the Norfolk County area please contact Brett or myself for an invitation link.

Short post to serve as a reminder to myself! Something I need to do often in my job is find out what hardware a particular server has installed. The best tool I found for the job is HardwareLiSter. On a CentOS system simply do: sudo yum install lswh to install and then run: sudo lshw | less to see what you’re dealing with.
