| schestowitz | I've just burned fat too much time on ssh | Nov 09 18:25 |
| schestowitz | First an hour... | Nov 09 18:25 |
| schestowitz | Only to find out the ISP blocks it. Argh!! | Nov 09 18:25 |
| schestowitz | And I think another one blocks it, but nobody admits it | Nov 09 18:25 |
| schestowitz | So I've wasted hours today on this junk | Nov 09 18:25 |
| schestowitz | How would you connect to files remotely without ssh? | Nov 09 18:26 |
| schestowitz | I mean, like scp/fish:// | Nov 09 18:26 |
| FurnaceBoy | webdav is one possibility. | Nov 09 18:27 |
| FurnaceBoy | or ftps | Nov 09 18:27 |
| FurnaceBoy | and if you control the destination server, you can move to another port. | Nov 09 18:28 |
| FurnaceBoy | i've never seen an isp that blocks ssh. | Nov 09 18:28 |
| FurnaceBoy | that would be extremely hostile to sysadmins | Nov 09 18:28 |
| FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: they've earned mucho negative publicity, if true | Nov 09 18:29 |
| schestowitz | FurnaceBoy: if it's an employer you might not want to port-evade and I would not | Nov 09 18:31 |
| schestowitz | But anyway, sftp might be worth a try | Nov 09 18:32 |
| schestowitz | let me try it... | Nov 09 18:32 |
| FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: oh you mean IT dept blocking | Nov 09 18:33 |
| FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: well then i was ask them | Nov 09 18:33 |
| FurnaceBoy | would* | Nov 09 18:34 |
| schestowitz | I should point out | Nov 09 18:34 |
| schestowitz | When I say they block it | Nov 09 18:34 |
| schestowitz | I mean outgoing | Nov 09 18:34 |
| schestowitz | port 22 | Nov 09 18:34 |
| FurnaceBoy | yes, i got that :) | Nov 09 18:34 |
| schestowitz | outgoing from a place would usually not be an issue if the host is put outside, but I still need to figure it out cause the IPs are dynmaic | Nov 09 18:35 |
| schestowitz | It was a lot easier when I had fixed IP | Nov 09 18:35 |
| FurnaceBoy | i usually solve this with a vpn. | Nov 09 18:35 |
| schestowitz | I need to compile this | Nov 09 18:44 |
| schestowitz | I'm setting up ftp | Nov 09 18:44 |
| schestowitz | FurnaceBoy: couldn't get vnc either | Nov 09 18:44 |
| schestowitz | For some reason | Nov 09 18:44 |
| schestowitz | Maybe ISP | Nov 09 18:44 |
| schestowitz | vpn is a long story | Nov 09 18:45 |
| schestowitz | But possible | Nov 09 18:45 |
| schestowitz | Sometimes I need to work away | Nov 09 18:45 |
| schestowitz | TO interact with some people | Nov 09 18:45 |
| schestowitz | But I need my files there | Nov 09 18:45 |
| schestowitz | configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old. Make sure it | Nov 09 18:45 |
| schestowitz | is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full | Nov 09 18:45 |
| schestowitz | path to pkg-config. | Nov 09 18:45 |
| FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: you have root access to your web server? openvpn solves all this completely. | Nov 09 18:47 |

There are example configuration files included with the source." now i downloaded the source and had a look on the config files, but i couldn't find anything relevant. any help on this?" | Nov 09 19:02 |

| schestowitz | I'm just wasting yet more time | Nov 09 19:03 |
| schestowitz | It seems as though connections on a router don't quite like these connection types | Nov 09 19:03 |
| schestowitz | Another option I have is a server in-between | Nov 09 19:03 |
| schestowitz | But space will be limited | Nov 09 19:04 |
| FurnaceBoy | you can openvpn | Nov 09 19:05 |
| FurnaceBoy | the thing with proftpd is you need ssl | Nov 09 19:05 |
| FurnaceBoy | i've set that up, but it will take you time | Nov 09 19:05 |
| schestowitz | I did set it up | Nov 09 19:06 |
| schestowitz | The hard way | Nov 09 19:06 |
| schestowitz | And can't reach it | Nov 09 19:06 |
| schestowitz | Probably something on the network blocking | Nov 09 19:06 |
| FurnaceBoy | right | Nov 09 19:06 |
| schestowitz | Today I finished installing the operating system and all the accompnying software that I require. Tomorrow I will start coding (around the theme of tagging) even though the free datasets I've found so far are not so good (actually, they are terribly tiny) and I would love to have high-resolution ones. | Nov 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | I can ask around Manchester if the folks have any (I've been in touch with Prof. Taylor OBE earlier today); there's not much cardiac research in Manchester and thus no data, not as much as brain and knee data anyway. The sooner we know if 'triple-sandwich' approach can still be pursued with help from the hospital, the safer it will be to explore just tagging work, on which I've collected some references and resources. | Nov 09 19:57 |
