The only thing theyre "behind" in India / China is evangelism. Theyre not exactly the sorts of countries where you come out and say "hey Im a Christian"; the government and culture tend to look rather poorly on it.

American Evangelical churches have money to burn, and are mostly the ones, who are behind this sort of nonsense. This sort of stuff is happening in many other countries too, including India, China (albeit in deep secracy), and many other Asian/African countries.

+1, After having used linux daily for more than 14 years, I have recently ventured in to the BSD land. And I like it a lot.

If you've been playing in Linux land, and never bothered with any of the *BSD, do yourself a favor and install one of the BSDs in a VM. You'll not be disappointed.

Wow, ssh tunneling, and a few command line options , and screen, that's your ultimate SSH guide ?
I am impressed, not!

How about
- ssh master connection, for svn+ssh ?
- ssh agent forwarding
- opening ssh ports using knocking
- auto blacklisting with something like sshblack

I think the above are more advanced options than the ones mentioned in the article, no ?

When I first started learning Pascal, I had a real hard time wrapping my head around the concept of a Pointer, and struggled with pointers and related concepts like linked-lists etc. throught out the time I had to use Pascal. I was using the Schaum's book on Pascal.

But under 'C' it felt somehow very natural and easy to understand, never had a problem with 'C' pointers, and data structures. R.I.P. DMR, your book really opened my eyes to the wonderful world of computing.

As if every single person in the world has a unique name, that they can trademark and sue everyone else for using it without their consent...(unless you're named parah salin of course), Secondly are you supposed to monitor all social networking websites to check if some one else is using the same name as yours.
