Script to assist with updating news server while I am away from my desk
#! /usr/bin/env sh
#
# This script is peculiar to my newsxml setup.
# When I build my news, I build on my laptop first, then transfer the files over to the server using scp.
# This way, the keys which are used to sign the news never leave the device where I do the signing.
# They don't live on the server.
# The SSH tunel server on my news server is down right now and I can't access it, so I need to copy the files another way.
# I've asked someone with physical access to the server to run this script which will set up the newsfeed without the need me to use SSH.
#
# Copy-and-Paste the following line:
# ssh user@192.168.1.203 bash -c 'wget -qO - https://gist.github.com/eyedeekay/3f79d0d830cac67385b7a6fd8f913573/raw/ccb6dab09a51ec5d99ef19fc910a50c168a1fb9e/newsxml-script.sh | sh -'
