Rsync to Windows Open SSH

Attempting to perform an rsync operation from a Linux or macOS system to a Windows machine directly using the rsync command will fail. This is because Windows does not have a built-in rsync utility.

A typical command like rsync /source/ target-hostname:/mnt/e/target/ will result in an error.

Solution

Leverage the power of the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) to enable rsync functionality on your Windows system.

Unable to Create GitHub Project Items on IPhone Safari Browser

GitHub mobile app does not allow creating project items, forcing users to access the web version via Safari browser. However, when using the board view on an iPhone running Safari, the “Add Item” input is not visible when scrolling down.

Solution 1: Add to Home Screen

  1. Open github.com from your iPhone’s Safari browser.
  2. Click the “Share” button on the bottom of the navigation bar.
  3. Select “Add to Home Screen.”
  4. On the “Add to Home Screen” page, click the “Add” button.
  5. Access GitHub from your home screen. You will now be using the PWA version without a navigation bar.

Solution 2: Use Chrome App

Alternatively, you can also use the Google Chrome app on your iPhone, which displays the “Add Item” input correctly when accessing GitHub project boards.

Setting Up Local AI Chat on VSCode on Mac

In this tutorial, we’ll guide you through the process of installing and setting up the ollama local AI chat service in VSCode on your Mac. We’ll also explore how to integrate it with the Continue extension for seamless AI-powered coding experiences.

Step 1: Install ollama

To get started, open your terminal and run the following command:

Local AI Chat on Web-Based Client on Mac

In this tutorial, we will set up a local AI chat client using ollama and Open WebUI. This will allow us to interact with our AI model locally without relying on any cloud services.

Install ollama

First, install ollama using Homebrew:

Local Chat AI on Mac

In this post, we’ll be diving into the installation and usage of ollama, a local chat AI that runs on your Mac.

Installing Ollama

1
brew install ollama

Once installed, you can pull down a pre-trained model (in this case, we’ll be using the “llama3” model):

NAT Setup Using Cisco Packet Tracer

We will demonstrate a basic network address translation (NAT) setup, allowing multiple devices to access a server through various routers and wireless networks. This setup enables multiple devices from different locations to connect to a single server, making it a crucial component of many modern networks.

Step 1: Adding Devices

  • Open Cisco Packet Tracer and create the following devices:
    • Laptop0
    • Smartphone0
    • PC0
    • Wireless Router0
    • Wireless Router1
    • Wireless Router2
    • Server0

Step 2: Configuring IP Addresses

  • Configure the IP addresses as follows:
    • Laptop0: DHCP (obtain an IP address from the router)
    • Smartphone0: DHCP (obtain an IP address from the router)
    • PC0: DHCP (obtain an IP address from the router)
    • Wireless Router0: Internet IP - DHCP, Router IP - 192.168.1.1/24
    • Wireless Router1: Internet IP - DHCP, Router IP - 192.168.2.1/24
    • Wireless Router2: Internet IP - 10.0.0.100/8, Router IP - 192.168.0.1/24
    • Server0: IP - 10.0.0.101/8

Step 3: Creating Connections

  • Create the following connections:
    • Cable from PC0 (LAN port) to Wireless Router1 (LAN port)
    • Cable from Wireless Router0 (Internet port) to Wireless Router2 (LAN port)
    • Cable from Wireless Router1 (Internet port) to Wireless Router2 (LAN port)
    • Cable from Wireless Router2 (Internet port) to Server0 (LAN port)

Step 4: Testing Connectivity

  • Test the connectivity by:
    • Pinging from each device to Server0:
      • Laptop0
      • Smartphone0
      • PC0 All pings should be successful, indicating that NAT is working as expected.

Step 5: Testing Web Browsing

  • Test web browsing from each device to Server0:
    • Open a web browser on Laptop0 and access the IP address of Server0 (e.g., http://10.0.0.101)
    • The web page should load successfully.
    • Repeat the same test with Smartphone0 and PC0.

Expected Results

  • All devices should be able to access the server through different routers and wireless networks, indicating that NAT is working as expected.
  • This article demonstrates a basic NAT setup using Cisco Packet Tracer, where devices can access a server through different routers and wireless networks. The NAT allows devices on different subnets to communicate with each other.
