What do you mean by "remote directory"? cifs, NFS, p9? Something else? Usually the remote server controls persons, owner, group, acls, xattr and other file properties.

Don't use root. Remote root isn't a good idea.

Setup a random "deploy" userid and have it in the sudoers with the ability to run apt-get commands without any password needed. Of course, lock down...

There are many ways to solve most problems. The maxsize option ignores time specs, as can be seen in the manpage ref above.

Please mark this thread as SOLVED to others don't waste time. And a...

Support for 16.04 ends this month, so move off that ASAP! Or pay Canonical for ESM for each of those systems.
There is 1 line added to each client node APT config. /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/02proxy

Try:

sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall

Don't be sorry. We are all different.

Just be aware that 80% of the computing power in Unix systems comes from non-GUI stuff. For example, some jobs pre-scheduled to run at specific times in the...

For a long time, there was a problem with data corruption on btrfs with VMs too. If you look at my lsblk output above, you can see lots of VMs using storage ... but none have a file system that the...

Sounds like there are different clipboard tools fighting with each other.
KDE has a clipboard, GTK has a clipboard and the X/Server has a copy butter. For my needs, I prefer the X/Server copy...

I would control this in the ~/.xinitrc file in her HOME with an xrandr command. For playing with settings, I'd use lxrandr.

Try

Do you bounce the application so the old log file gets closed and the new file gets opened? Files that are just moved don't change the inode, so any open file handles will...

It is unlikely that any site would need ALL the packages in a repo and all the updates daily.
Might I strongly suggest using apt-cacher-ng instead? This way, only actually requested packages get...

Everyone has gaps in their knowledge. Old guys too. I'd been moving ssh public keys around the hard way for 15 yrs before someone asked why I wasn't using ssh-copy-id? All the kids knew about it -...

Graham1, I'm concerned that you have /home and backups on the same physical device. That isn't a backup - unless you have some external, detached, storage that gets the backup data?

The main...

No.

-digital != --digital

That's a WM thing. Pick a better WM. On my WM, there's no WM extras - no title bar, no wasted space.

The poll is confusing. Is an LV the same as a partition for the purpose of this poll? What about people using ZFS with a single pool, but with many datasets?

What is a "console"? In the Unix world, it means something VERY, VERY, specific. ssh isn't a console.

Is this a trick question? Start another putty client? This seems to be a putty question. ...

Rule #1 - use the manpages ON THE SYSTEM, not from the web. The manpages on the system are for the exact version of the program installed, not some older or newer version that {whatever web search...

Why? CPUs today use 50% less power than 10 yrs ago for 2x+ more performance. The only people I know with cooling issues have hot GPUs or 6 HDDs inside the case or a power-hungry CPU pulling 125+W. ...

There are lots of tiny X/apps that have been around for 30+ yrs, perhaps 40 yrs. Some of them have terrible GUIs - the original xcalc sucked. It only accepted mouse-clicks, not numbers entered via...

I wouldn't know.
First, CPAN is dead. metacpan has been the perl packaging system for some time.
Second, metacpan has changes daily. It would be ludicrous for a stable release like Ubuntu to...

all my cases are over 20 yrs old. Reuse. Buy $20 ones to sell older computers.

BTW, you aren't alone. I have 1 remaining server still running 16.04. This weekend, we have extended downtime scheduled to perform the OS upgrade and multiple upgrades for the software that system...
