hacks and tips and tricks
| what it is | what it does |
| .bashrc | export PS1='\[\033[0;35m\]\h\[\033[0;33m\] \w\[\033[00m\]: ' |
| ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 up | brings interface eth0 up with ip of 192.168.1.10 and netmask of 255.255.255.0, you may still have to add a route if you run route and you don’t see a last entry like “default 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0” with 192.168.1.1 being the gateway in this example |
| route add default gw 192.168.1.1 eth0 | you need a default route to tell your box where to send all the packets that get routed (hopefully) outside the machine, this generates one, change your ip to suit your application |
update-alternatives --config editor |
updates your crontab editor |
