Recent issues with SSH
Nov 7
userauth_pubkey: signature algorithm ssh-rsa not in PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms [preauth]
And it will not allow to connect using older, SSH-1 keys.
The temporary solution is to add
PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-rsa
to the /etc/ssh/sshd_config and restart the SSH daemon. Well, it’s advisable not to use weaker keys for a long time.
Thanks to the Archlinux forum for the info
In architecture, a Daylight Factor (DF) is the ratio of the light level inside a structure to the light level outside the structure. The only problem – you must know both the illumination level on the inside, on the working plane and simultaneous outdoor illuminance on a horizontal plane from a unobstructed hemisphere of overcast sky.
A Daylight factor can be expressed as an average, using experimental formulas. Here are some of them:

- low disc space;
- Bitlocker
The most reccomended way to remove the exclamation mark is to turn Bitlocker protection on and off.
In the case you don’t want the Bitlocker, you can turn it off for a drive using command line, as described here.
Run the command prompt as adminstrator and enter the command:
manage-bde C: -off
You can check the drive status with
manage-bde -status
You will get something like this in response:

Numerical PasswordThe EN 13724:2002 “Postal services – Apertures of private letter boxes and letter plates – Requirements and test methods”, European standard for letterboxes specify that:
- an envelope of C4 (229 mm × 324 mm) size must be deliverable without bending or damage;
- the internal volume must able to hold at least a 40 mm high bundle of envelopes;
- the height of an aperture is 30–35 mm;
- the width of the aperture is either 230–280 mm (for C4 width) or 325–400 mm (for C4 height);
- the mounting height of the aperture should be between 0,7 and 1,7 m.

The “required insolation’ sector is added to support in-model decision on the limiting volumes and conditions.
This is not a public software, so please contact the author of the LSS Arch Tools for more questions.
You must hae the CA configured properly, this no not the scope of this post.
For self-signed certificate
The self-signed certficate is in the <hostname>.crt, the private key is in the <hostname>.key
openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout <hostname>.key -out <hostname>.crt -days 365For CSR (Client Certificate Request)
The request is in the <hostname>.csr, the private key is in the <hostname>.key.
-nodes option will turn off the password request, which is a Bad Idea for personal certificates and is sometimes used for server sertificates.
openssl req -newkey rsa:4096 -sha256 -nodes -out <hostname>.csr -outform PEM

The request is in the <hostname>.csr, the certificates is in the <hostname>.crt.

Mar 9
When setting up authenticated SMTP service, be sure your IMAP server is accessible. The reason for this is Postfix will check the username using SASLauth daemon. And SASLauth damon uses “rimap” method for checking the username. Rimap is “remote IMAP”, and it tries to log into the configured IMAP service, which by default is defined as ‘localhost’.

The main problem it became (this is another story) too long to be usable and there was a strong demand for the screencast view right on the student’s workplace. Yes we do use beamers, but the view was too small to dead the text on the screen.
And so the project was born. There is single seat where the view originates and multiple locations where it should be visible. The system must be easily expandable and upgradeable, no vendor lock-ins. All the points in the systems should be easily adjustable and replaceable.
