Portknocking
Portknocking is a technology that gives you the ability to remote access your home computer in a secure way. In this technique all ports should be closed, and only you can open ports to services on your home computer by linking a service to a free port in the range above 49152 and giving a secret encrypted "knock-signal" (in fact a knock sequence). If the sequence of the client doe not exactly matches the sequence in the configuration file of the server, you wan't be able to open the required port to the desired service. Security by Obscurity, is absolute passé! This website provides documentation, sources and binaries.

Christians 4 Israel Christians for Israel is an international spiritual movement of Christians who recognise the return of the Jewish people to Israel as fulfillment of biblical prophecy and a major sign pointing toward the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Our message is to prepare for the coming of the Lord and to stand in loving solidarity with the Jewish people and the nation of Israel. We oppose all forms of antisemitism and antizionism.

We pray for the peace of Jerusalem and support the Jewish people in practical ways. Christians should be united in their love for the Jewish people, in their support for the nation of Israel and in their collective repentance because of Jewish suffering throughout Church history.
