Development-Cycle

As a developer a lot of time is spent working with code located on remote servers, downloading files, and re-uploading changes gets tedious using ftp, or standard ssh clients. One solution to this dilemma is sshfs, it allows a remote file system to be mounted locally using the ssh protocol, making editing, creating and deleting files a breeze.

Getting sshfs working is pretty painless and following the instructions below should get you up and ready to go in less than 5 minutes.

Sometimes you need to lock a user out of a system on a temporary basis, maybe they didn't pay that last bill you sent? Luckily this can be done really easily with the passwd command.
i.e passwd -l username
This adds a ! character to the start of the users encrypted password making it invalid. When you want to unlock the account the process is easily reversed using the passwd again but this time with the -u prefix.
i.e passwd -u username
