1. Open regedit Start -> Search -> regedit
2. Navigate to the following registry key:
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\tcpip6\Parameters\
3. Create a DWORD value named DisabledComponents, please note this is case-sensitive
4. Edit the DisabledComponents value and set it to 20

   

5. Restart the computer for changes to take effect.

An alternative way off doing this would be to just to import a .reg file containing the following

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip6\Parameters]
"DisabledComponents"=dword:00000020

You will need the following

• USB Flash Drive
• Windows 7 CD or ISO
• A Computer with a CD-ROM copy the installation files of the CD

1. Connect your USB flash drive
2. Open Computer, right click on your flash drive and select format. Proceed to format the drive using the settings below

   

3. Copy all the files from your Windows 7 CD or ISO onto the flash drive
4. Lastly, we need to install a bootsector on the flash drive to do so go to Start -> Search -> CMD. The command prompt window shall pop up, Change to the directory of your flash drive by typing its assigned letter e.g F:
   Run the following command, where f: is the letter of your flash drive

   boot\bootsect /nt60 f:

5. Your now finished, If you boot from the flash drive it will boot into the Windows 7 installation as normal

Copying to remote machines

To copy a file to a remote machine run the following

scp ~/file/to/be/transfered username@hostname:~/destinationfolder

If you want to copy a directory you would use -r which would look like this

scp -r  /folder/to/be/transfered username@hostname:/path/to/destination

and if you want to specify a SSH port use -P which would look like this

scp -P port-here /file/to/be/transfered username@hostname:/path/to/destination

Grabbing from remote machines

To grab a file from a remote machine you would run the following

scp username@hostname:~/path/to/file/you/want /path/where/you/want/to/save/the/file

If you wanted a folder you would use -r which would look like this

scp -r username@hostname:~/path/to/folder/you/want /path/where/you/want/to/save/the/folder

and if you wanted to specify a SSH port use -P which would look like this

scp -P port-here username@hostname:~/path/to/file/you/want /path/to/destination

Mounting folders over SSH

Using SSHFS we can mount folders over ssh. To get started you'll need to installl sshfs

apt-get install sshfs

Create a dir to mount the files too and give your user ownership over it

mkdir /media/sshmount
chown username /media/sshmount

Then add your user to fuse group

adduser username fuse

You should be then able to mount using the following command

sshfs username@hostname:/path/to/folder/you/want/to/mount /media/sshmount

For Windows Users

If your on windows and you want to send or grab files over ssh you can using pscp
To send a file you would run the following

pscp C:\file\to\be\transfered username@hostname:/path/to/destination

To grab a file you would run the following

pscp username@hostname:~/path/to/file/you/want C:\path\where\you\want\the\file\saved

When using pscp the -r switch will work for folders and -P will also work for port
