a bit of a background to my issue:
I'm on a OSX El Capitan and I installed openssh7.1 using homebrew, placed all my keys in the ~/.ssh folder, and created ~/.ssh/config to identify each host and the key to be used to authenticate.
When using the terminal, I simply use $ ssh {hostname} and it connects me where I need to be. But when I try to connect from installed applications (like Sequel Pro, FileZilla, XCode) then I'm just unable to connect at all..
I don't even get any feedback from those applications! I'm feeling lost here, anyone has any piece of advice?
FYI, I symlinked /usr/local/bin/ssh to /usr/bin/ssh (and all other openssh binaries as well)

To get an acces token for an api I need to run a Powershell script first. I'm using mac os 11.3.1, installed Powershell via Homebrew and installed some packages for using the script. One last thing I need to complete to be able to run it is creating a Certificate Provider/Cert drive. On Windows this is created when installing Powershell but this isn't the case on mac os.
I can't find any documentation about this so are there people who were able to use the certificate provider?
My current modules:
I'm trying to install Firebase in to my Xcode by using mac os terminal command pod install (CocoaPods) , but it always has overtime, and connection breaks, so i cannot install it.
So here is a problem, i live in China, and i can't connect any Google services via terminal(GitHub also), but i have full access to all services using my VPN App.
Few solutions that i found - to create a custon VPN connection by command networksetup -connectpppoeservice "myVPN" but it doesnt work too, because i'm using VPN desktop App, and have no idea what data i need to type inside. Also i tried to networksetup -setv6off "Wi-Fi", but it didn't help too. I read people said that solution was just to turn off VPN, but in my case i have the same result with VPN ON/OFF.
So i have a question - how can i manage traffic from terminal through my VPN app to reach servers?
My MacOS version: 10.15.7 Catalina
errorMessage
i found how to solve my problem:
i opened a socket port from my VPN distributor
git config --global http.proxy 127.0.0.1:****
I have recently added the ubuntu terminal in my windows pc since certain packages were only supported in linux. Now for example if I were to access my packages that are present in my conda environments in my windows os through the linux terminal would it be possible? Will it still function the same way or do I have to manually install everything via the ubuntu terminal as well.
If I do have to install everything manually again, where will all the stored data be present? Which directories should I access?
How does this ubuntu terminal work exactly? Does it work in a similar manner if I were to dual boot it?
Yes, you can access all the packages from Ubuntu terminal. You don't have to install everything all-together again. WSL or Ubuntu on Windows can seamlessly integrate with windows. Even though Linux systems have different directory structure, Ubuntu terminal (or bash or WSL or Ubuntu for Windows) happen to maintain the directory structure for windows. So anything you install on Ubuntu terminal will be installed as to windows terms. But I wouldn't recommend mixing these two as it's very tricky. And also, WSL and dual-booting Ubuntu with windows are far from close. You can know more about it if you search online.
I would personally recommend installing Ubuntu as it makes programming a billion times easier. You don't have to install Ubuntu replacing windows. You can just install Ubuntu on a separate hard drive and just specify which drive to boot from on system start-up. If you use a laptop and don't have two drives, then create a new volume and use it as if it were an original drive.
This is a long story.
I use an old OSX 10.4.11 machine (Power PC) as a web server. Very low use.
It runs X11 at 1.1.3 (XFree86 4.4.0).
For several years I used X-forwarding to show log traffic on a newer Mac Intel machine (Mac mini). At some point after about 2006 this just stopped working. I have never tried to upgrade the 10.4.11 machine as it met and continues to meet my needs for a low cost Web server.
Meantime XQuartz has come and been through several new versions, as has MacOS. Currently I have MacOS 10.13.6 and XQuartz 2.7.11 on the Mac Mini. I am revisiting why the long-defunct X-forwarding sessions to OSX 10.4.11 stopped working.
I find I can do X-forwarding fine from my Linux 18.04 box, which was a surprise. I have spent a lot of time trying various approaches to resolving the issue. It occurs to me that the 10.4.11 setup may just be too old, and therefore incompatible. Hence my question: "mac osx 10.4.11 with x11 1.1.3 (XFree86 4.4.0) - is this compatible to do X-forwarding from Mac OS 10.13.6?".
Any comments will be much appreciated.
I am answering my own question.
I spent several days looking at logs from ssh -v -X user#hostname, with -vv and -vvv for more log info. I also tried the ssh -Y variants of that command.
Reading extensively from stackexchange and elsewhere, I restored and re-edited the ssh_config and sshd_config files on both server and client hosts several times, and coded shell scripts to restart sshd.
The insurmountable problem was that $DISPLAY was not being set up correctly on the client. This is what led to my question.
The only way I could get X-forwarding to work with my OSX 10.4.11 PPC client was:
1) ssh -f user#hostname /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm
then
2) run my local commands on the client from that window (nsu and nsu-go).
I also had to add the correct path to all my commands, including /usr/X11R6/bin for xterm as above, and ~/bin to my commands on the client.
The package I was working with was https://sourceforge.net/projects/nsu/ where detail changes are required.
I have one computer running ubuntu operating system. It is having a wifi router connected to it. I have other laptop which runs windows 7 operating system.
Is there a way to access the ubuntu machine from windows machine through wifi and vice versa ?
You can use TeamViewer in both windows and linux. It will give you full control of the remote machine but I'm not sure if you can do file transfering...
For file transferring, connecting from windows to linux I would use winSCP, which access files through ssh, so you would have to install an run sshd on your linux box. If you haven't sshd in your ubuntu box, install it by doing $ sudo apt-get install ssh. You can start ssh daemon in ubuntu 11.10 with the command $ sudo service ssh start. From linux (Ubuntu 11.10) to windows (w7), I have successfully got into w7 machines in my local network by exploring the Network section in the left bar of the nautilus explorer. Sometimes, for some folders it would ask me for credentials to log into the remote machine, and file transferring was as simple as doing copy and paste (Ctrl+c, Ctrl+v)
hope to be helpful! good luck!
VNC is good for remote work on both Windows and Linux. You'll need to install VNC on Windows but I believe it comes by default with Ubuntu. You need to configure one to be the server and then you can use a client from the other machine to connect to it and remotely control the server machine.
Here are some resources for VNC in Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC
And I use TightVNC when I'm working on Windows (server and client included in the install).
Install XRDP on Ubuntu.
on windows then run msrtc -v
if over the internet , I say use

free and lot better than teamviwer.
