Ubuntu has so-called repositories. That is, a server providing software packages which is hosted by Ubuntu's creators (and a number of mirrors).
Not all software there is made/supported by Canonical, many are also third party and might be under a non-free license, but all are free to download and install.
The torrent should be opened by a torrent manager. Then the manager will "send" a message out on the internet saying "I want this file" and lots of people will send a little bit of it.
That reduces load on Ubuntu's servers, and will saturate your connection, so it can download faster
@Terrance You should leave a comment urging people not to run their own MTA at home, and to verify that port 25 is open out ;) Because both are real concerns. But nothing in the question points to that being the problem. That would typically manifest as connection refused or time out when connecting to the mx in question.
@Terrance but I do agree. Mail coming from a dynamic IP is commonly a spam flag
@vidarlo My ISP does block it. If I do not configure a relayhost, the connection times out. As soon as it is configured then all my tests come through.
True, but if you pay for a No-IP address that has that service or GoDaddy or something like that, then you can have whatever you want. I am just not aware of any free services that allow it unless my ISP provides me with it, but they might charge me more for that too.
@Terrance but in the question the problem seems to be confusion on how auth works, and that postfix attempts IPv6, but is unable to. Perhaps port 25 is blocked, but there's nothing indicating that :)
No-IP doesn't really change any outgoing blocks you may have
I'm currently running a screen on my machine (Ubuntu 16.04.3) to connect to the VPN in background:
screen -S vpn
Then to connect to my VPN I run the following command:
./forticlientsslvpn_cli --server ip:port --vpnuser user
Then I'll get a prompt to confirm the connection because of the cer...
There are some questions which has bounty, but are clearly off-topic or are duplicates of another question.

The above question is offtopic because even though its title say ...
@vidarlo There's a broken sentence in your answer here: “Regarding the authentication failure, this is probably because the login method is because auth login is not a valid sasl authentication mechanism for your configuration.”
Write a function or program that encodes a string into a Code 39 format barcode, where each character is encoded as five bars separated by four gaps. Either two of the bars and one of the gaps are wide and others are narrow (10*4 codes), or three of the gaps are wide and none of the bars are (4 c...
Codegolf is a fun one to look at. So is codereview at times. I keep expecting to see one on codegolf where someone says I wrote this custom compiler. ab is the whole program, you just have to feed it to this compiler I put on github -- drops mic.
The hoster I am using provides a Debian 8.10 (kernel 4.9.85) as a rescue system. In the past I've been using that to bootstrap Ubuntu using debootstrap from here.
I am using a few preparational steps auch as installing apt-cacher-ng which is the reason for the localhost:3142 in the URL I am usin...
Just installed an Ubuntu 18.04 server after having used 14.04 or 16.04 for several years, only to find that the Ubuntu devs thought it clever to tear out the tried and true years-old /etc/init.d/networking and /etc/network/interface subsystem. Further, they don't even use the hard-fought-for systemd replacement system, opting instead to use the new netplan contraption. My question is simple: how to I revert the system back to the sensical network configuration stack?
Netplan is uncalled for and I want none of it. None.
I have a community based flavor of ubuntu 18.04 called budgie. Instead of writing a new ubuntu 18.04 to a flashdrive/disc and installing the system from scratch.
Can you do the equivalent with only terminal commands? Or is it simply impossible.
I might post a question there tomorrow. Everything I'm seeing asking how to set a statis IP has been deleted from AskUbuntu and U&L by the author, which is further confusing.
It's a special feeling having your years of experience ripped away just because the Ubuntu group felt like using YAML for something. I've always preferred the Ubuntu system over others, but the stability and consistency of the RHEL/CentOS distro is looking mighty tempting right now.
/etc/init.d/networking - gone. /etc/network/interfaces - gone. systemctl restart network-manager.service - gone (as with all other variants). Just... why?
