As a follow-up to the SSH: RSA keys, and ssh-agent for SSH keys and their passwords management post. The idea now is to make simpler to work with password-protected SSH keys, to avoid the necessity to enter a password each time when you want to load a key to the ssh-agent. One of the possible… Read More »
So, this seems to be the last one post in the whole series about passwords and SSH management in Linux. The previous parts were about: Linux: the Nextcloud client, qtkeychain and the “The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files” error – I found that a keyring service is able to store SSH… Read More »
One of the motives to go deeper into the keyrings (see the What is: Linux keyring, gnome-keyring, Secret Service, and D-Bus post) was the fact that Chromium, surprise-surprise, keep passwords unencrypted if a Linux system has no keyring and/or Secret Service enabled. So, let’s try to find how and where Chromium store passwords, and the… Read More »
It’s a really long-read post and I wast sure if it’s better to split it into three parts or put them together. On the one side, there are keyrings, from another – D-Bus, and finally, there is a Secret Service. Eventually, I decided to keep them here together as I googled all it in the… Read More »
During keyring configuration for the Nextcloud client (see the Linux: the Nextcloud client, qtkeychain and the “The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files” error post) – I decided to clean up the mess in my SSH keys, as I have a lot of them and sometimes authentication became just pain. In general… Read More »
After installing Nextcloud (see the Nextcloud: running in Docker Compose on Debian with Let’s Encrypt SSL post), on the next day its client ton my Arch Linux asked for authentication. But after I entered my credentials, it returned me the following error: Reading from keychain failed with error: ‘The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by… Read More »
I while ago I’d tested the Nextcloud, see the NextCloud: installing server on Debian behind NGINX with PHP-FPM and client on Arch Linux post. In general, it looks good, so it’s time to try to run in a production environment and finally migrate from Dropbox to it. Today, let’s spin up a Nextcloud instance using… Read More »
A couple of days ago I got an additional laptop to take it on meetings. As it will be used rarely and not as my main laptop – I decided to install Manjaro Linux there instead of usual Arch Linux – to take a look at the Manjaro itself and because don’t want to spend… Read More »
We have a web application which has to accept POST-requests from clients. In front of this application, there is some proxy service, no matter which – initially, we faced the issues on an AWS’s Application Load Balancer, then I reproduced them with NGINX, and it will “work” for any other proxying system. Besides proxying –… Read More »
We started receiving emails from AWS with notifications to update RDS Certificate Authority certificates. It’s time to do it, so let’s start from our Dev, then will repeat on Staging and Production environments. W eare using common AWS RDS MariaDB instances, and the upgrade documentation is available here>>>. The process itself is really simple and… Read More »
