Couple of years ago RJBS gave a great talk about email, it's complexity and issues - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JENdgiAPD6c

Could the recent peak be related with the Cryptolocker campaign?

Could you name the modes, which help you accomplish live-debug and 1-click documentation effects?

Using this opportunity I would like to propose to organize some kind of streaming channel (on twitch.tv or similar) about hacking/coding.

The simplest way is to use netstat and check amount of connections from each host. If you see plenty hosts with many connections established, that's DDoS. If there is plenty hosts, but each one has few connections, thats DoS (aka slash dot effect), mentioned by Tomek_.

PS: DDoS - distributed denial-of-service attack. Deliberate attack which involves dedicated software; DoS - denial-of-service. Server can't handle all requests, because suddenly there is more of them (because of link on frontpage etc)

Sometimes it's not acceptable to store data on external server without root on it. For these kind of uses Unison (mentioned in previous comments) is decent solution, but also AeroFS (aerofs.com), which works much smoother (less collision problems).

Anyway syncing data on several devices must became standard soon.

It's worth mentioning that ssh-copy-id might have problems with specifying port number. Here is workaround for that:

$ ssh-copy-id ‘-p xx -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub login@example.com’

It doesn't have to be true.
