So, you cloned your virtual machine and made sure it has the same MAC addresses so that it would pull the same IP from the DHCP server lease. but the next time you click on your SSH icon, it fails.

So I like to build things, I also like to set up a GoPro camera above my desk to capture timed photos of my builds, but the results are usually 5 - 8 gigabytes of pictures that need to be turned into movies, so here is what I do:
ASSUMPTIONS: your pics all end in .JPG and the are all numbered sequentially. and that your system can handle video as big as your fotos.

So you know that somewhere in your source folder (/source) that there is a script that uses the foo() function but you cant remember which one and there are thousands of files, what do you do?

You grep them!

grep -R -i -n 'foo()' *

Lets break it down, first we are grepping files, the -R indicates to search recursively, -i indicates we want to ignore case, and -n indicates we want to know which line of the file grep finds our search string on. then the search string in single quotes and lastly, a finame wildcard, in this case, search through every file.
