Chuck Joiner was kind enough to invite me onto MacVoices #14048 to talk about my upcoming Macworld presentation: The Efficient Mac User (3/27 at 4pm, CF823, if you’re going to be at Macworld). We talk about my motivation for the talk, what’s going to be in it and who it’s going to help.

I’ve been using this great tip from Sean Coates for years now on my remote Linux servers.

I’ve primarily been using OS X servers for a while now, though, and it took a few changes to get it working.
