You can in face do all your installs from the market place website

ah .. thanks for the reminder.
Easyurmpi has now been updated.

mmm all things have changed now that grub2 is common, having trouble myself, having to read manuals :(

mmmm
s/^*[0-9]{6,9}[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z]*
match from the beginning anything followed by 0-9 a minimum of 6 but a maximum of 9 times, then match an alpha character, then another alpha character, then match anything
a replace might look like this:
s/^*[0-9]{6,9}[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z]*/mytext/
something like that perhaps?

pretty sure I'm here everyday :)

I doubt a dev environment would work very well, but as a mobile device they work a treat
-
I have my own servers around the world.
On one of them I run an svn server, which I use to "check in" important docs
no encryption tho'

Unfortunately, my life is extremely boring so I can't set a good example...
I hear y'man !!!
boring ! :(
although I did register my first NZ company this month .. not ready to go live yet, but working on it every day

use a non-standard port, forward/tunnel a few ports, etc... and you discover it's a pain to do from the command line unless you write a script for it.
PuTTY works great but I think it's windows only?
mkdir ~/.ssh
add configs into a file called ~/.ssh/config
example:
Host colosus.18londonst.co.nz User paulw Port 4755 Host donk User paul Port 4755 Host oink User root Port 4755 Host home.loudas.com User root Port 4755
then
ssh donk
uses the user and custom port by default

A vulnerability has been found and corrected in opensc:
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in libopensc in OpenSC 0.11.13
and earlier allow physically proximate attackers to execute arbitrary
code via a long serial-number field on a smart card, related to
(1) card-acos5.c, (2) card-atrust-acos.c, and (3) card-starcos.c
(CVE-2010-4523).
Packages for 2009.0 are provided as of the Extended Maintenance
Program. Please visit this link to learn more:

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in xfig:
Stack-based buffer overflow in the read_1_3_textobject function in
f_readold.c in Xfig 3.2.5b and earlier, and in the read_textobject
function in read1_3.c in fig2dev in Transfig 3.2.5a and earlier,
allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string
in a malformed .fig file that uses the 1.3 file format. NOTE:
some of these details are obtained from third party information
(CVE-2009-4227).
Stack consumption vulnerability in u_bound.c in Xfig 3.2.5b and earlier
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application
crash) via a long string in a malformed .fig file that uses the 1.3
file format, possibly related to the readfp_fig function in f_read.c
(CVE-2009-4228).
Stack-based buffer overflow in Xfig 3.2.4 and 3.2.5 allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute
arbitrary code via a FIG image with a crafted color definition
(CVE-2010-4262).

A vulnerability has been found and corrected in gif2png:
Stack-based buffer overflow in gif2png.c in gif2png 2.5.3 and earlier
might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code
via a long command-line argument, as demonstrated by a CGI program
that launches gif2png (CVE-2009-5018).
Buffer overflow in gif2png.c in gif2png 2.5.3 and earlier might allow
context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application
crash) or have unspecified other impact via a GIF file that contains
many images, leading to long extensions such as .p100 for PNG output
files, as demonstrated by a CGI program that launches gif2png,
a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-5018 (CVE-2010-4694).

A vulnerability has been found and corrected in perl-CGI:
Unspecified vulnerability in CGI.pm 3.50 and earlier allows remote
attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and conduct HTTP response
splitting attacks via unknown vectors. NOTE: this issue exists
because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2010-2761 (CVE-2010-4411).
Packages for 2009.0 are provided as of the Extended Maintenance
Program. Please visit this link to learn more:

The updated packages have been upgraded to the latest version (3.51)
which is not affected by this issue and in turn also brings many
bugfixes.
-
A vulnerability has been found and corrected in wireshark:
Buffer overflow in the MAC-LTE dissector
(epan/dissectors/packet-mac-lte.c) in Wireshark 1.2.0 through 1.2.13
and 1.4.0 through 1.4.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial
of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a large
number of RARs (CVE-2011-0444).
The updated packages have been upgraded to the latest version (1.2.14)
which is not affected by this issue.
-
Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in subversion:
The walk function in repos.c in the mod_dav_svn module for the Apache
HTTP Server, as distributed in Apache Subversion before 1.6.15,
allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (NULL
pointer dereference and daemon crash) via vectors that trigger the
walking of SVNParentPath collections (CVE-2010-4539).
Multiple memory leaks in rev_hunt.c in Apache Subversion before 1.6.15
allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (memory
consumption and daemon crash) via the -g option to the blame command
(CVE-2010-4644).

Program. Please visit this link to learn more:

The previous advisory MDVA-2011:000 updated openoffice.org to 3.2.1
but didn't include a rebuilt openoffice.org-voikko, thus preventing
installation of the update when the openoffice.org Finnish language
package is installed.
This advisory fixes the issue by providing the missing packages.

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in evince:
Array index error in the PK and VF font parser in the dvi-backend
component in Evince 2.32 and earlier allows remote attackers to
cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute
arbitrary code via a crafted font in conjunction with a DVI file that
is processed by the thumbnailer (CVE-2010-2640, CVE-2010-2641).
Heap-based buffer overflow in the AFM font parser in the dvi-backend
component in Evince 2.32 and earlier allows remote attackers to
cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute
arbitrary code via a crafted font in conjunction with a DVI file that
is processed by the thumbnailer (CVE-2010-2642).
Integer overflow in the TFM font parser in the dvi-backend component in
Evince 2.32 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary
code via a crafted font in conjunction with a DVI file that is
processed by the thumbnailer (CVE-2010-2643).
The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
-
A vulnerability has been found and corrected in php-phar:
Multiple format string vulnerabilities in the phar extension in PHP
5.3 before 5.3.2 allow context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive
information (memory contents) and possibly execute arbitrary code
via a crafted phar:// URI that is not properly handled by the (1)
phar_stream_flush, (2) phar_wrapper_unlink, (3) phar_parse_url, or
(4) phar_wrapper_open_url functions in ext/phar/stream.c; and the (5)
phar_wrapper_open_dir function in ext/phar/dirstream.c, which triggers
errors in the php_stream_wrapper_log_error function (CVE-2010-2094).
The updated packages have been upgraded to the latest version (2.0.0)
and patched to correct this issue.

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in MHonArc:
MHonArc 2.6.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(CPU consumption) via start tags that are placed within other start
tags, as demonstrated by a <bo<bo<bo<bo<body>dy>dy>dy>dy> sequence,
a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-4524 (CVE-2010-1677).
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in lib/mhtxthtml.pl in
MHonArc 2.6.16 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script
or HTML via a malformed start tag and end tag for a SCRIPT element,
as demonstrated by <scr<body>ipt> and </scr<body>ipt> sequences
(CVE-2010-4524).
