| minall | Hello Ubuntu Community! | 13:22 |
| minall | I will soon begin to work to my Ubuntu server over SSH, my question is> What do I have to 'know' and tweak in my server so I can be a good administrator?, since this server is accessible via internet? | 13:23 |
| mybalzitch | disable password based authentication and use ssh keys | 13:37 |
| minall | mybalzitch: Lol my server is accessed on user root with password | 14:01 |
| minall | Imma change that to ssh keys, thanks mybalzitch! | 14:01 |

| c0fe | i am writing a script, part of it is going to call up mysql and the login, the script will be one big line. how can i input the commands so it accounts for the mysql login? | 16:05 |
| c0fe | so it will be mysql -u root -p and then the next line would ask for the password | 16:05 |
| sdeziel | c0fe: you could possibly put the credentials in ~/.my.cnf or have your script ask for the password interactively before calling "mysql -u root -p $PASSWORD" | 16:07 |
| c0fe | sdeziel: is there a way to have it in that one big line? that would keep things simpler | 16:08 |
| sdeziel | passing the password as argument is more risky as other users can see it by checking the env | 16:08 |
| sdeziel | c0fe: read -rp "provide the root password: " PASSWORD; mysql -u root -p $PASSWORD ... | 16:09 |
| c0fe | sdeziel: wouldn't that be resolved by restarting the machine? | 16:10 |
| sdeziel | c0fe: not sure what a reboot would solve | 16:11 |
| c0fe | clearing out any credentials found in env | 16:12 |
| sdeziel | no, once the mysql command would be finished, the env would be "cleared". The problem is while it is running, others can observe the password which is why using ~/.my.cnf is better | 16:14 |
