I have set up a Linux VM on Azure - Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS.
My goal is to be able to do remote desktop connection from my Windows 10.
I'm a complete newbie with Linux and that's why I've been following this tutorial. Everything seems to work fine until the point where I need to create an "Standalone Endpoint". The interface has changed in Azure's portal. What I've done is create an Endpoint as the pic below, but when I try to click "Connect" the option is still disabled.
The 3389 port should be set in “Inbound security rules” which you could refer to Where is the EndPoint setting for VM in new Azure portal for details.
After setting the 3389 port you could follow commands below to install desktop and enable RDP connection in your linux VM.
Update your system and install desktop, I choose xfce4 instead.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xfce4
Install xrdp and start it
sudo apt-get install xrdp
sudo /etc/init.d/xrdp start
Next add a user that you want to be able to use the Remote Desktop with, the “primech” bit is the username. You get prompted for some other user-type data.
sudo adduser primech
sudo adduser primech sudo
Open Remote Desktop Connection tool in your Windows 10, you could start it by typing command mstsc, and then input your ubuntu's public ip address and then click 'connect' button.
Then you could get the same dialog in your tutorial, just input the username primech and password. And then you are able to see the remote desktop now.
This is correct. RDP (port 3389) is a windows-specific capability. SSH is the default and only supported means of remotely connecting into a Linux VM on azure.
You might be able to configure VNC to run on the Linux box and create an endpoint (VNC uses port 59xx, with xx being the display number, e.g. 00 for :0) but I haven't tried this and not sure it's supported.
RDP (remote desktop) i believe is a Windows only feature. Linux VM doesn`t support this feature.
From my knowledge instead of RDP, you have the options of SSH into a linux VM with command line or use VNC for RDP like experience.

Yesterday I tried to upgrade from ubuntu 16.04 to 17.10.
When I upgraded to 17.04 it went all good, no problem.
But when I installed 17.10 I deleted the obsolete packages when it asked me to, and it changed my standard gnome loader to some new one.
And now when I am at the window to select the user, I can't move my mouse or input anything from my keyboard, just my poweroff works.
I tried to unplug the adapter and plug it in to see if it just freezes, but it does not, it recognizes when I plug/unplug the charger, everything seems fine, but the keyboard and mouse.
I tried to run a different kernel, or run in recovery mode but when I boot it freezes in the process.
I'll assume that you're using a laptop because you mentioned charger.
There might be an option in the BIOS for Legacy USB support try enabling that.
I only suggested that because I had the same problem and when I removed all of the packages, my keyboard and mouse drivers got removed as well, so I had to switch that option so it worked. After you boot and login, you can download drivers again and than you can disable this option.
Alternatively you can try plugging in external USB keyboard and trying if it works.
P.S.: When I booted my PC to linux for the first time, none of my USB peripherals worked, so I had to use PS2 keyboard and mouse to navigate, but when I enabled that option in BIOS, I was able to use it normally.
Can you explain in more detail, how it "freezes" when you boot into recovery(I expect you calling CLI recovery)
EDIT:
you can try following these steps:
use alt+f2 and login into a separate terminal session
remove gnome with
sudo apt-get autoremove gnome-core gnome-shell gnome-session
update broken packages
sudo apt-get -f install
run it twice!
reinstall it
sudo apt-get install gnome-core gnome-shell gnome-session
reboot

I have a raspberry pi laptop with a raspberry pi 3 running Jasmine, and was wondering if I could connect to it through SSH no matter what WiFi network the Raspberry pi was connected to.
Example: I leave my Pi Laptop at McDonald's, connected to their free WiFi, I then go home, and on my chromebook I SSH into my Pi Laptop.
And I need to do this without port forwarding since I don't have access to McDonalds WiFi settings or most other network's settings, so I can't port forward my Pi Laptop.
I was in your same shoes 4 years ago. I finally decided to use a VPN solution. The best and most reliable for me was Hamachi (now owned by logmein). It might still be free.
https://secure.logmein.com/labs/#HamachiforLinux
I haven't added any new system in a while but here were the commands I typed.
sudo wget https://secure.logmein.com/labs/logmein-hamachi_2.1.0.86-1_armel.deb
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --fix-missing lsb lsb-core
sudo dpkg --force-architecture --force-depends -i logmein-hamachi_2.1.0.86-1_armel.deb
sudo hamachi login
sudo hamachi join xxx-xxx-xxx yourkey
sudo hamachi go-online xxx-xxx-xxx
Also install and add hamachi on your computer.
Now if as long as your Pi and your computer have internet access you will be able to reach it.
I realize this post is old, but thought I might have some useful info.
To connect to multiple pis on different networks without port forwarding I use the service: https://www.remot3.it/web/index.html
You can make a free account on their website. Then, in the terminal of the pis, you can run the commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install connectd
sudo connectd
Then follow the steps in the installer and you can view and control all your devices (as long as they have a route to the internet, or even cellular). You can also follow this video once you have an account/the installer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfr5Ox17S6U
Full disclosure: I'm actually an intern at remote.it this summer, but I thought it might be useful for you.

I am trying copy a directory from my amazon Linux machine to my virtual-box. I write the following command from my amazon Linux machine:
scp /home/user/test xyz#xyz-VirtuaBox:/home/user
but I get the error message:
Could not resolve hostname xyz-virtualbox: Name or service not found.
I am not sure what's going on. My virtual machine hostname is right.
No! Your virtual machine hostname is not resolvable from amazon linux machine. You should do this the other way round. From virtual machine:
scp xyz#amazon:/home/user/test /home/user
Or the other way is to set up remote port forwarding, so you will be able to connect from your Amazon machine to your virtual box, but it depends if you use Putty or normal ssh. But the general command can look like this:
[local] $ ssh -R 2222:xyz-VirtuaBox:22 amazon
[amazon]$ scp -P 2222 /home/user/test xyz#localhost:/home/user
To make the copy, you need to have an open door to your virtual machine, then use the syntax
scp -pr -P <port> <directory> user#ip:<path_directory_destination>

I'm trying to configure my Ipega PG-9025 with Retropie with no succeed. I made some progress following this link (https://askubuntu.com/questions/608386/using-ipega-bluetooth-gamepad-with-steam-linux) but it only works at Emulation Station menu...
The gamepad stops working in every emulation system and also gives me some problems pairing and reconnecting my device.
Has someone any other advice? Any other try?
Thank you very much
Finally I found a solution: I installed the last Retropie 3.0 BETA version. It has the bluetooth manager integrated and you will need only some few steps to configure your Ipega PG-9025:
1) First time you'll need to pair your Ipega with Raspberry (once is done, no need to do this anymore).
Check if your dongle is correctly connected:
$ hcitool dev
Get your adapter number (e.g. hci0)
$ hciconfig
Scan your bluetooth Ipega device:
$ hcitool scan
Pair your device using the MAC number scanned previously:
$ sudo bluez-simple-agent hci# xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
After pairing connect your controller:
$ sudo bluez-test-input connect xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
You will need to trust this device to allow auto-connection after a reboot:
$ sudo bluez-test-device trusted xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx yes
2) Check if your controller is in the input devices and responds correctly:
Verify there is an input file in e.g. /dev/input/js0
$ ls /dev/input
You can also try your device using the following command:
$ jstest /dev/input/js0
3) Now you can configure it running the retropie_setup.sh script:
cd RetroPie-Setup/
sudo ./retropie_setup.sh
In the menu, select these options and follow the instructions:
SETUP (only if you already have run one of the installations above)
317 Register RetroArch controller
And that's all, if you need to use Neo Geo system you will need an extra configuration explained here: https://github.com/petrockblog/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Neo-Geo#controls
It's just test your device (jstest /dev/input/js0) and set the button numbers in the correct config file.
Here my Ipega PG-9025 and Nintendo64 demo running in Retropie 3.0 BETA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmvQi0w0Tec
Great tutorial helped a lot.
I had to start bluetoothd deamon for all this to work
sudo bluetoothd
Some ppl had problems if thay had sixad service runing and paired with ps3 controler
sudo service sixad stop

I have installed LXC(Linux Containers) on Ubuntu Server 14.4 Host and i have some virtual servers running on it,but now i want to migrate all these containers to LXD, i have worked so hard configuring these containers and i don't want to lose all of these configurations.
This is my sketch:
HOST
Ubuntu Server LXC
Container Container Container
Ubuntu 12 Ubuntu 12 CentOS
Is there any way to do it?
Thanks
As I said in migrating lxc to lxd, you can do so by creating a dummy LXD container and replacing its rootfs, then updating some of the config to match your LXC container's configuration.
Specifically, if your source container was privileged, you'll want to set security.privileged=true at least until such time as you have confirmed your workload works properly unprivileged (just set security.privileged=false and restart the container with "lxc restart").
If you talk about: http://www.ubuntu.com/cloud/tools/lxd I think it's very early to start with it.
I have started to follow this project with first initial commit 3 month before. There wasn't release yet.
PS:
Getting started with LXD
Our OpenStack container capability, codenamed nova-compute-flex is included in Ubuntu OpenStack for Juno, which you can download via the Ubuntu Cloud Archive. Simply type the following commands to enable and use it:
sudo add-apt-repository cloud-archive:juno
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nova-compute-flex
OpenStack Juno is available for Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS and 14.10.
