comment Why do I have to type ./ when executing scripts in my current directory?
I added current directory as the last path since it's somewhat safer then have it first. The best is of course to be explicit and have them in ~/bin.

comment How to really force unmount a filesystem (without manual investigation why is it busy)
Try "lazy umount", umount -l. It always umounts but could produce an unstable filesystem.

comment Change permission to /proc/net/ip_conntrack on Ubuntu server 9.10
/proc is a virtual filesystem that resides only in memory. You should put your chmod line in a start up script.

ntpd is really the way to go. Running ntpdate with cron can give you some unwanted effects.

comment How to set up that specific domains are tunneled to another server
I haven't used Opera so I can't really tell. You could perhaps use tsock for that too. Use "tsocks ssh <sitethatneedtheproxy>" to ssh to sitethatneedstheproxy via your socks proxy.

comment What could be the cause of randomly getting “No route to host” errors when trying to ssh or sftp?
On Linux you do "iwlist <interfacename> channel". It shows all available channels and what channel you are using. You change it on your router (or access point) and your client will follow.

comment Inverse multiplexing to speed up file transfer
Bleh, bad ISP! I assume an UDP stream is limited similarly. I guess you have to write something yourself, don't think the torrent solution helps when you only have two machines involved.

comment Inverse multiplexing to speed up file transfer
