minus-squareLandless2029@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up25·10 months agoI’ve recently started administering windows headless. PowerShell over SSH. Don’t have this problem on windows server! It doesn’t even have a terminal text editor I have to install nano or use powershell commands through hoops of fire just to edit a line in a file. Or download the file via scp, edit and reupload. Pure Insanity.
