SSH is a powerful tool which often grants a lot of access to anyone using it to log into a server. In this post, I’m going to talk about a few different ways that you can easily improve the security of your SSH model without needing to deploy a new application or make any huge changes to user experience.

Now that I’ve provided you with an introduction to Git and a brief overview of using Git with GitHub, it’s time to build on that knowledge by taking a closer look at one workflow often used when collaborating with Git. The “fork and branch” workflow is a common way of collaborating on open source projects using Git and GitHub.

But first simply try to enable software SSL - small servers may be fine with SSL and without any additional installations.
Thunderbird 3.1 and later (and 3.0 to some degree) includes mail account autoconfiguration functionality. The goal of autoconfiguration is to make it very easy for users to configure the connection of Thunderbird to their email servers.
