Enabling SNMP on an ASUS RT-N66U

-
Recently I wanted to monitor an ASUS RT-N66U, a brilliant router with many feature, one of which did NOT appear to be SNMP. After some rooting around on the Internet (pun intended?), I discovered that it is actually quite easy to set up. For this you will need a small USB stick, I used an old tiny 4GB thumb drive. Ensure it's partitioned and formatted to ext2. If you're using Windows then EaseUS Partition Master can help, there's a free version for home use.  Otherwise the Gnome Partition Editor , otherwise known as GParted, will work.

At the bottom of that page is the "Download Master" which you can then choose to install onto your USB. What this does is into install a package manager, along with various packages for the Download Master, but this gives you the abilit...

This error was first reported in  issue #130893  and happens when you have too many credentials in your Credential Manager. If you're not sure what credentials to delete, try deleting all of the vscode specific credentials which all start with  vscode . Here i...

Getting SSH agent passthrough working with VS code

-
(Updated 2023-04-24) I had frustrations getting SSH agent passthrough working with VS code such that when I was remoted onto a linux box and working with git, I wasn't able to use the git functions inside code as the auth was failing. Doing the following worked for me at an administrator powershell prompt on your own machine Set-Service ssh-agent -StartupType Automatic Start-Service ssh-agent Once you've got pageant or similar loading your keys then this should all work. You might need to add entries similar to below into your local ssh config file to ForwardAgent yes: Host remotehostname      User yourusername      ForwardAgent yes Also make sure that you've got your ssh identity loaded Use the following to list identities 'ssh-add -l' and the following to add your id_rsa key 'ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa' Troubleshooting "ssh -V" to get the version. Try using "ssh -vT git@github.com" to test the forwarding. Due to bugs in the version of openss...
