How do i archive and remove excess files example.

cd ~/Desktop && tar -cvf sitepack.tar ./

this will give me

ls
Riva_Starr_Feat._Noze_I_Was_Drunk_Official_Video_HD_.mp3
Riva_Starr_feat._Sud_Sound_System_Orizzonti_Official_Vide.mp3
Riva_starr_I_was_drunk_Syskey_remix_.mp3
sitepack.tar

when what i am looking for is

ls
sitepack.tar

so it archive everything into the zip rather than leave them in place?

Way to avoid ssh connection timeout & freezing of terminal tab

When I connect via ssh terminal to certain servers, it timeouts and "freezes" the terminal (doesn't accept, doesn't disconnect, can't Ctrl-C to kill the ssh process or anything).
