A lot of important government documents are created and saved in Microsoft Word (*.docx). But Microsoft Word is a proprietary format, and it's not really useful for presenting documents on the web. So, I wanted to find a way to convert a .docx file into markdown.
On a mac you can use homebrew by running the command brew install pandoc.

Letsencrypt is an initative which aims to increase the use of encryption for websites. It basically allows people to apply for free certificates provided that they prove the they control the requested domain. We will look at the what is needed to secure your MongoDB installation. For more details on setting up a MongoDB server see MongoDB 3.2.x.
We sould to set the hostname to match the name of the certificate we are going to optain.
sudo hostname mongo0.example.com
Then update the hostname file to set the server name permanently.
Git for Windows comes bundled with the "Git Bash" terminal which is incredibly handy for unix-like commands on a windows machine. It is missing a few standard linux utilities, but it is easy to add ones that have a windows binary available.
The basic idea is that C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\ is your / directory according to Git Bash (note: depending on how you installed it, the directory might be different. from the start menu, right click on the Git Bash icon and open file location. It might be something like C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Programs\Git, the mingw64 in this directory is your root. Find it by using pwd -W).
If you go to that directory, you will find the typical linux root folder structure (bin, etc, lib and so on).
If you are missing a utility, such as wget, track down a binary for windows and copy the files to the corresponding directories. Sometimes the windows binary have funny prefixes, so
The repository for the assignment is public and Github does not allow the creation of private forks for public repositories.
The correct way of creating a private frok by duplicating the repo is documented here.
For this assignment the commands are:
git clone --bare git@github.com:usi-systems/easytrace.git
| Use this as an example on how to start the virtual console without the need of Java Web Start or accessing it from the web interface. | |
| You can use the user and password that you use for the web interface. | |
| You need an old JRE... I used 1.7.0_80 from the Server JRE package, also I have tested successfully 1.7.0_79 with MacOS. | |
| You don't need to install it, just extract it or copy the files in "jre" folder. | |
| Open the viewer.jnlp file that you get by launching the virtual console from the web interface with a text editor. | |
| Note the urls to the jar files. Download the main jar file avctKVM.jar and the libs for your operating system and architecture. | |
| Extract the dlls (.so Linux, .jnilib MacOS) from the jar libs. |
There are times when you need to log off your Linux Desktop, and you want a process to run in the background. TMUX manages this very well.
For this example, let's suppose you're running a long running task like running rspecs on your project and
it is 5pm, and you need to go home.
