I have had some tasks to configure and install a CentOS distribution for my bug-tracking needs. Hope to help out someone with similar problems and or tasks. I'll be using a fresh install of a CentOS Minimal 6.5.  And a Mac Book Pro with VirtualBox installed (as my testing environment). First after install of a clean CentOS you need an SSH server to work in your usual environment. So to connect to a Linux, installed in a VirtualBox you will need basically 2 things: openssh-server install disable firewall VirtualBox Port configuration/Access configuration OpenSSH server install To install server you need to run in your VirtualBox Guest system (CentOS VM): yum -y install openssh-server And start and add it to auto launch at system startup: chkconfig sshd on service sshd start Also make sure port 22 is opened in your VM. type: netstat -tulpn | grep :22 Firewall settings Because it's a VM you can simply disable the firewall.

I had a problem "Unauthorized" in official twitter client for Mac. Tried several instal/reinstall. Deleted/Downloaded again from Apple App Store. It all didn't help. They seem to change something in authentication. So I've tried deleting all the config files in ~/Library/ Main solution that helped me: 1. Switch off the client. (be sure to Close an app) 2. Delete: ~/Library/Preferences/com.twitter.twitter-mac.plist.lockfile ~/Library/Preferences/com.twitter.twitter-mac.plist 3. Launch Twitter app and login from scratch. I have revoked access this twitter client too in my https://twitter.com/settings/applications  but it seem to make no effect. Making similar actions to TweetDeck for Mac does not help. So it seems like problem is somewhere deeper. Hope it will help you solve similar issue.

    Maybe you're already know about how to connect to remote servers through Local network on your Mac, but how about SSH server connections?     Lets say you may open a terminal window and run "ssh username@server.com" it will ask you for a password and "Ta-da" we're in. But what about usability. If you're console geek, this is enough for you. As for the others let's talk about adding some GUI to it. Some time ago Google engineers released a package for Mac's to mount remote filesystems, using lots of methods, including SSH.     This software is called MacFuse. It connects remote filesystems to your Mac's finder. You will see it in your computer as a regular Mac's network drive.     MacFuse has developed to the point, where it's extremely easy to "make it work". This is the way:     1. Install MacFuse and SSHFS. at the time of writing this article version is  MacFUSE-2.0.3,2.dmg  and you can  dow...
