Pos1
like Ctrl-A

Ctrl-R
Search terminal history
Some of the shortcuts are also recognized by other applications, like Ctrl-U on Ubuntu’s graphical login screen.

Series -> Season 01 -> Episode 01 -> Sample -> sample.mkv
To get rid of these you can use the “find” and “rm” command. To remove each sample folder with its content you have to use the remove command with an “-r”.
To disable password authentication permanently you have to edit the ssh config. Be sure to first backup before editing. Now just set PasswordAuthentication to “no” in your config and restart the ssh daemon.
cp /etc/ssh/sshd_config /etc/ssh/sshd_config_bak
nano /etc/ssh/sshd_config
service ssh restart
