Warning: this is for educational purposes only.  Neither I nor anyone else on the planet is responsible for your stupid decisions and lack of thinking.  The information provided here is the best of my documenting ability and nothing more.  Like ANYTHING on the internet, it should not be considered as the full truth with no missing pieces.  If I leave anything out, it's your responsibility to find the rest of the puzzle.   ie, if you blow your car or yourself into a million pieces, it's YOUR fault. Note:  This took a lot more effort than I had anticipated even with the other DIY articles I found on this subject.  I personally will be paying someone to do it for me next time.  If you decide to take this on, I suggest you go ahead an replace the fuel pump while you are at it, as long as you have at least 60,000 miles on the toaster.  My pump died at 94k miles.

There are plenty of firmware flashing guides out there for CR-10 models, but not yet a lot for the CR-10 S5 model.  So I had to figure out how to flash the firmware based on what was available for other models. To  understand what is required, please refer to this video.  It has all of the major steps needed. This post is not meant as a full guide.  It's merely supplemental information that applies to the video below meant for the S5 model's of the CR-10 series.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7J7NYnxL5vA So the basic idea is the CR-10's do NOT have a bootloader installed by default.  So in order to flash the firmware, you first have to burn the bootloader.  This can be done via an arduino because the CR-10's all use an arduino as their main processor. The CR-10 normally has a jumper to switch to USB power.  the S5 does not have this.  You can just disconnect the 120/240v power and plug in the USB cable and it will power the S5 board.   You wil need the boar

The following will configure your linux-based SSH server to use a pre-defined radius server for authentication instead of plain password authentication.  You must configure the radius server before starting this configuration.  This is for Linux 64-bit bit but for 32-bit just change package names from .x86_64 to i686.: ·          Download install package (make sure the server can access the internet via port 80/443) # yum install freeradius  pam_radius.x86_64  pam_radius.x86_64  pam.x86_64  type y when it asks you if this is OK, hit ENTER ·          Edit the conf file # nano /etc/pam_radius.conf ·          Add the correct radius server info as follows 192.168.1.5        secret      5 192.168.1.6         secret      5 ·          Use CTRL-O to save the file and CTRL-X to exit. ·          Set file permissions # chmod 600 /etc/pam_radius.conf ·          edit the sshd_config file # nano /etc/ssh/sshd_c
