How to Convert Linux Ubuntu Partition into Windows Partition

You need to format the partition on which you want to install Linux Ubuntu and the type of Linux Format is completely different than those of Windows Format types. That's why hard disk partition on which Ubuntu is installed is not view able from Windows Operating System, because windows does not support Linux Ubuntu Formats. 
This goes good until you want to both operating systems with dual boot system. When you do not want to use Linux Ubuntu you will have to convert its partition to NTFS or FAT32 in order to access the partition and store and access data from this partition.

One method to convert Ubuntu partition to Windows is to convert and format the partition with Free MINITOOL Partition Program.

Remember this procedure will only convert to Windows Supported partitions and will ask you to format the partition until you can use it. So you will loose any data on your Ubuntu partition. 
See How to access Ubuntu files from Windows without formatting the Ubuntu partition


2. Start Minitool

3. Select the Ubuntu partition to convert into NTFS

 4. Click on the "Change Partition Type ID" on the Left Bar as shown below

5. Select "NTFS" from drop down menu of "Please select Predefined ID from the list" and press Yes

6. Click "Apply" at the Top left.

7. Restart Window and you will See your Partition in the My Computer

8. Format the Partition to Use in Windows.

How to import Putty Saved Connections to mRemoteNG

Just started using mRemoteNG and its being very cool to connect to different remote connection with different protocols e.g Window Remote Desktop, VNC to Linux, SSH, HTTP connection etc. from a single application. As new user I configured some remote desktop connection which was quite easy to figure out. But when I wanted to add SSH connections, it came in my mind to import all of the saved connections in the putty. But I couldn't figure it out how can it be done, though it was quite easy and here are the steps. Open your mRemoteNG Create a folder if you want segregation of multiple networks Create a new connection Enter the IP address of remote server under connection in Config pane Under the config pane, select protocol " SSH version 2 ".  Once you select protocol to SSH version 2 you are given option to import putty sessions, as shown in the snap below. In the above snap, I have imported CSR-AWS session from my saved sessions in Putty.

SSL VPN vs IPSec VPN: Understanding the Key Differences

When it comes to securing communication over the internet, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are a cornerstone of modern networking. Two popular types of VPNs are SSL VPN and IPSec VPN . While both serve to encrypt and secure data, they differ significantly in terms of technology, use cases, and implementation. This blog post will help you understand these differences and choose the right solution for your needs. What is SSL VPN? An SSL VPN uses the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) or its successor, Transport Layer Security (TLS) , to create a secure connection. It operates at the Application Layer (Layer 7) of the OSI model and is designed to provide secure access to specific resources over the internet. Key Features of SSL VPN: Ease of Use: Accessible via a standard web browser without the need for dedicated client software. Granular Access Control: Allows users to access specific applications or resources rather than the entire network. Port Usage: Uses TCP port 443, which is rarely...

Authoritative DNS Servers Delegation and Internal DNS Explained

DNS (Domain Name System) plays a critical role in how users and systems find resources on the internet or within internal networks. Whether it's managing an internal domain in an enterprise or delegating parts of a domain for traffic distribution, DNS setups vary widely depending on needs. In this blog post, we’ll break down the different types of DNS setups, including authoritative DNS servers, DNS delegation, and how internal DNS functions within organizations. 1. Authoritative DNS Server An Authoritative DNS server is the final source of truth for a specific domain. When someone queries a domain (e.g., example.com ), the authoritative DNS server for that domain holds the DNS records (A records, CNAME, MX, etc.) and responds with the corresponding IP address. Key Points: Who can host it? Authoritative DNS servers are often hosted by domain registrars (e.g., GoDaddy, Namecheap) or cloud DNS providers (e.g., AWS Route 53, Cloudflare). However, organizations can also host their ...
