Questions[settings](server)

Of late I have noticed that many of the commands respond to me in foreign language. According to Google translate it is Italian.(See screenshot)

I have noticed that this happens to me only when I ssh to some remote system, as in this case. When I access that system locally then it "replies" to me in English. I had noticed this same problem for another remote system too. At that time I had assumed that maybe that remote system's language setting is screwed. However, now it seems my local system (ssh) is somehow introducing itself in Italiano.

What is going on?

When I'm trying to connect to FTP server I get: "500 OOPS: cannot change directory:/home/$USER/public_html"

• when I do echo $USER - I get proper username
• seems like $USER isn't interpreted inside my /etc/vsftpd.conf
• when I remove "local_root=/var/www/sites/$USER" I everything is smoothly working.

I'm running vsftpd 2.2.2 and Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS Release: 10.04 Codename: lucid

When I log in with PuTTY, I always have to:

• change settings
• appearance
• font
• change
• 8
• resize window

so that I can see enough text to work with the log files.

I don't see where I can save these settings to my saved session. Is this possible?

Answer:

So the answer is click on change settings, change everything but then you have to also click on session the name again and save, thanks David:

I've gotten quite used to typing compmgnt.msc or similar commands to bring up certain dialogs faster than it would take me to navigate to them. For this one in particular I just tap Start then r enter c o down-arrow enter. There's others I use too, but I wish there were a centralized compendium of commands for the like this for the command line or run... field. At least for Windows Sever 2003. And it certainly would be nice if it were a brief but complete description in the table/list that was searchable or filterable.

Has anyone seen a list like this that you could link to in your answer? Perhaps with a sample in the answer of what it would describe compmgngt.msc as for find usage.

(Aside (not part of the question) by find I mean whatever you use to jump through a long webpage. For me it's Control-F, but I'm trying not to exclude people who'd use F3 or '/' or Alt-E-F or any method not called find etc etc. depending on your browser.)

When I configure a new remote desktop connection to connect to servers I often forget to uncheck the option inside of local devices and resources for remote printers. This creates exceptions in the event log for the server I connect of source: TerminalServices-Printers for the printer drivers I use for PDF document conversion.

I'd love to know if it's possible to disable remote printers by default either on the client remote desktop connection options, or on the server so these exceptions no longer occur.
