hey dt, could you make a video on the process of installation itself? by that I mean the process that is shared among installation of all linux distros:
- what does partitioning the disk(s) means
- what is the meaning to create file system on top of a partition
- what does chroot means
- why the process of installation differs between uefi and legacy bios
- mistakes before, during, and after base installation
this is a somewhat exhastive list of things to cover, but hopefully these can offer basic and fundamental knowledge of installation to newbie linux users like me.

Hey DT! I'm facing an issue with my system, where I can't ssh to another machine of mine without entering a password: I created the keys, ssh-copy-id & all reacted fine, but still, I'm obliged to enter the password 100% of the time. This really puzzles me out, as you'd guess. My -local- machine is on Manjaro and my -remote- machine is a Slackware 14.2. Of course, with the password, I can connect to the -remote-: does anybody have a clue about this problem ? (I've already checked directory rights, the config, even tried different encryption protocol, but same problem...)

The password on SSH keys thing is tricky, because as a developer I mostly want to use SSH authentication for Git so I don't have to enter passwords, and that defeats the purpose. SSH agent can authenticate for you, but I don't know if you have to reauthenticate to SSH agent every time you open a new terminal / tab or if just doing it once every reboot would be sufficient. My guess is that you'd have to do it every terminal, so that's why I don't tend to put passwords on there if I don't have to.

Hey DT, I really enjoyed this introductory video to ssh. I am trying to learn emacs after I learned vim and I noticed that you mentioned in some of your videos that you are running daemon processes for them. I know what daemons are conceptually however it would be great if you can make an introductory video about how to use them. I really enjoy how you clearly explain these concepts and love your vids :)

Good video. One minor thing I'd point out is that the passphrase is being authenticated locally by the cert vs by the server which is more secure than trying to authenticate via a password on the server. I can see people hearing this and not quite understanding when you said its best to remove password authentication and then turn around and enter a passphrase.

Thank you, DT! This is exactly what I needed. I'm installing Ubuntu on a Raspberry Pi cluster which I'm using for learning about cluster management. This walked me through everything I will need to set up SSH key-only access, & use a FOSS app to log into them all at once with tabbed access from my main machine.

If you set up openssh server on a machine that is facing the internet, you should set up fail2ban to protect your machine. If the internet sees you have a sshport open, the internet will try to hack at it and exploit it. Both a hardened firewall and fail2ban will help keep you safe.

If we set password in ssh keys, we can use 'ssh-agent', wich create a shell after the pass phrase being entered. In the shell, every ssh related commads can be used without entering the pass phrase.
Example:
$ ssh-agent bash -l
Thank you.

What's the point of the Chisel project on github? it is a tunnel and gives examples for doing ssh inside of a TCP tunnel, but i don't know why you would do that vs. something like a reverse-ssh tunnel

You should talk about the -.ssh/config file! Definitely a good alternative to using a separate ssh client if you need to ssh into multiple servers without having to remember ip and such
