This guide explains how to set a static IP address on Ubuntu. # Check Network Interface Information Enter ip address to check your network interface information. ip address 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 ::1/128 scope host valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether dc:a6:32:c4:6d:4e brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.

How to Generate an SSH Key

SSH is a protocol for securely logging into remote computers, transferring files, and executing commands over a network. It encrypts communications, preventing eavesdropping and ensuring security. This guide explains how to generate keys for use with SSH. # Setting the Encryption Algorithm and Key Length You can generate a key using the ssh-keygen command. The following example generates a key using the RSA encryption algorithm with a key length of 4096.

Disable Automatic Updates for APT Packages

When packages are updated automatically, there is a chance that software that was previously working may suddenly stop functioning. This guide explains how to disable automatic updates for APT packages. # Check Automatic Update Settings The automatic update settings are located in the 20auto-upgrades file within the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d directory. Below is an example of the settings: APT::Periodic::Update-Package-Lists "1"; APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade "1"; Update-Package-Lists indicates automatic package updates, while Unattended-Upgrade represents automatic package upgrades.

How to Allocate Dynamic Memory in C and Points of Caution

In C, it is possible to allocate memory dynamically. Dynamic memory allocation is useful when the required memory size changes at runtime or when large memory areas are needed. This article explains how to allocate memory dynamically and provides some points of caution. # Functions for Dynamic Memory Allocation and Deallocation The C standard library provides functions for dynamic memory allocation and deallocation. #include <stdlib.h> void *malloc(size_t size); void free(void *ptr); void *calloc(size_t nmemb, size_t size); void *realloc(void *ptr, size_t size); To use these functions, include stdlib.

Simplify Memory Management with goto Statements in C

During development, you may encounter situations where you need to allocate multiple dynamic memory blocks within a function. If memory allocation fails, you’ll need to free any previously allocated memory, which can make error handling complex. This article explains how to simplify error handling and manage memory deallocation by using the goto statement. # What is the goto Statement? The goto statement is a syntax used to jump to a specified label within a function.

Differences and Use Cases of apt and apt-get

Both apt and apt-get are package management tools used in Debian-based Linux distributions. This article explains the differences between these two commands and when to use each. # What is apt-get? apt-get is one of the older package management tools. It allows you to fetch packages from repositories, install, upgrade, and remove them. It automatically handles dependency resolution, deals with conflicting packages, and manages the cache.
