Well, it's another one of my security articles :) before I start I would like to thank the man znx ;)

for getting PortSentry working due to a little programming error.

 

The piece of software you will need to install is "PortSentry" which can be downloaded from here.

 

Once you have downloaded the source file you can decompress it by issue the following command:

 

So I used WinUAE to set up a nice Amiga OS 3.9, with a Cnet Pro BBS, debugged the telser.deviced and telnetd.device to work with the CnEt Pro. Every thing runs great.

 

So when moving to the Linux platform I have to compile the configure file with the bsddevice-=new uncommented.

 

How do I Compile this? Nothing has yet to make a binary I can use.

 

I am using the latest version of E-UAE

Been trying to follow these instructions in Fedora Core 4

 

Every things cool unitl step three. Sense these instructions are 1 year old, i have adapted it a little. Main issue is part 3

 

rpm -ivh ~/httpd-2.0.40-21.16.legacy.src.rpm

 

Does this.

 

warning: ./httpd-2.0.50-1.0.src.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2

1:httpd ########################################### [100%]

 

No files are created as the guide below says should happen.

 

 

 

-------------------------- missing how to -----------------------------

Here's how to rebuild Apache from SRPM, including the change you want to make.

 

1. Grab the httpd SRPM from the FC1 updates:

 

% wget [/url][url=http://download.fedora.us/fedora/fe....48-1.2.src.rpm]http://download.fedora.us/fedora/fe....48-1.2.src.rpm

 

2. Set up your RPM build area:

 

% echo "%_topdir /home/yourname/src/rpm" >> ~/.rpmmacros

% mkdir -p ~/src/rpm/

% cd ~/src/rpm

% mkdir BUILD RPMS RPMS/i386 SOURCES SPECS SRPMS

 

3. Install the SRPM:

 

% rpm -ivh ~/httpd-2.0.48-1.2.src.rpm

 

This will put the source tarball and patches in SOURCES, and a specfile (metadata and instructions for building) in SPECS.

 

4. Edit the specfile, bumping up the release number, changing the suexec docroot, and noting this in the changelog:

 

% vi SPECS/httpd.spec

 

line 8:

< Release: 1.2

> Release: 1.3

 

line 202:

< --with-suexec-docroot=%{contentdir} \

> --with-suexec-docroot=/home \

 

line 510:

%changelog

* Tue May 18 2004 Your Name <you@yours> 2.0.48-1.3

- Rebuilt with suexec-docroot set to /home instead of %{contentdir}

 

5. Rebuild httpd, creating both a binary RPM and a source SRPM:

 

% rpmbuild -ba SPECS/httpd.spec

 

You may have to install some additional packages to satisfy build dependencies here. When it's done, you'll have binary packages in RPMS/i386/, and a source package including your modified specfile in SRPMS/.

 

6. You can now either upgrade to the httpd you just compiled...

 

% sudo rpm -Fvh RPMS/i386/httpd*.rpm RPMS/i386/mod_ssl*.rpm

 

7. ...or simply extract the suexec binary and copy it over the original one:

 

% rpm2cpio RPMS/i386/httpd-2.0.48-1.3.i386.rpm | cpio -imVd ./usr/sbin/suexec

% sudo cp -p /usr/sbin/suexec /usr/sbin/suexec.orig

% sudo cp ./usr/sbin/suexec /usr/sbin/suexec

% sudo chown root:apache /usr/sbin/suexec

% sudo chmod 4510 /usr/sbin/suexec

 

Personally, I haven't yet had any problems with just keeping the suexec binary I compiled months ago and reusing it with later updates of Apache (i.e., repeat step 7 after installing an httpd update), YMMV. Obviously if there is ever a security update involving suexec itself, though, you should rebuild again.

------------------how to that was missing --------------------------

This Tutorial is free and may be distributed with reference to this website

It is for people running Fedora Core 4 wanting to setup a working Samba

Server to access the Shares on a Linux machine from a Windows machine

 

Commands are written in green

Everything else are things you might edit / write / add

 

Get my Tutorials from [/url][url=http://www.bildunxxluecke.de/usr/fedora]http://www.bildunxxluecke.de/usr/fedora

 

1.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Prepare your Enviroment:

 

- samba-common-3.0.14a-2.i386.rpm

- samba-3.0.14a-2.i386.rpm

- samba-client-3.0.14a-2.i386.rpm

- samba-swat-3.0.14a-2.i386.rpm (install only if you want have samba-webinterface)

 

2.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Now its time to configure SAMBA:

 

rpm -i samba-common-3.0.14a-2.i386.rpm

rpm -i samba-3.0.14a-2.i386.rpm

rpm -i samba-client-3.0.14a-2.i386.rpm

rpm -i samba-swat-3.0.14a-2.i386.rpm

 

3.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Everything should be installed now, its time to configure Samba:

 

- cd /etc/samba/

- vi smb.conf

 

You can safely edit this file (in fact you must) necessary is :

workgroup = < your windows network workgroup > e.g.: WORKGROUP

server string = < Information about your Samba Server >

netbios name = < Hostname of Sambaserver > e.g.: SMBSERV01

 

You dont need to touch the shares so far, if you want to share

other directorys keep and eye on the examples in the smb.conf

 

4.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Now everything is done and you can start:

[root@test] smbd -D

[root@test] nmbd -D

 

Now you should be able to access your Sambaserver from your

Windowsmachine via \\< smb machine ip >

 

(5.)

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

For those who want to use swat with samba :

 

- cd /etc/xinetd.d/

- vi swat

change disable = yes to => disable = no

- cd /etc/

- vi services

make sure the following line is in it : swat 901/tcp # Samba Web Administration Tool

to test do 'grep 901 /etc/services' , if not in insert it

now do : service xinetd restart

 

Swat should be running now !

 

(6.)

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

To access Swat Webinterface from Lan :

 

- cd /etc/xinetd.d/

- vi swat

change 'only_from = 127.0.0.1' to 'only_from = 'your.netmask.0.0' e.g.: '192.168.0.0'

the 0 stands for wildcards (e.g. 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255)

 

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Everything is fine .. enjoy now just do http:// SAMBAIP : 901 and login as root

I just found out this nice little feature in firefox. If you like to save those funny video clips you see on some websites and hate searching through the page source for the link to the media then this is for you.. So lets go to this funny video for example

 

[/url][url=http://www.ebaumsworld.com/videos/signfun.html]http://www.ebaumsworld.com/videos/signfun.html

 

Ok so when viewing that page in firefox right click anywhere on the page and goto "View Page Info" and then click the tab "Media"

 

Now the embeded movie should be listed as embeded in type.. just click on that and then the save as button and your saving it without looking at the source and then using wget.. NICE!

Ok, so I just installed Core 4 on my IBM Thinkpad 600X, everything went smooth, except for the audio.

 

When I go to "soundcard detection", i'm presented with the nifty little screen, and it says it found a

 

Cirrus

Logic CS 4614/22/24 [CrystalClear SoundFusion Audio Accelerator

snd-cs46xx

 

But when I click "Play test sound", nothing seems to happen, and yes the volume is up and on.

 

 

Any ideas?

/etc/dnsmasq.conf

 

---------------------------------

 

domain-needed

interface=eth0

local=/rkbrb.local/

expand-hosts

dhcp-option=44,10.10.23.99 # WINS server(s)

 

---------------------------------

 

 

Currently working on getting dhcp/dns running using dnsmasq!

help !

 

it just trys to connect and then bombs back to the server menu, see attached screenshot for one of two errors

 

mostly:

 

a:/ it will look as if its joining the server and then bomb back to the server list menu with no error at all

 

or less often i see

 

b:/ (the screenshot)

 

any ideas ?

 

cheers

Hi,

 

I was curious on how you could limit users surfing the Internet, I found KobrAs's guide useful :)

I setup a group called Internet and assigned users to it and apply this to my iptable

 

I thought that it would be fun for us all to have an uptime-league, so i have created one. All you have to do is go to uptime-project, create an account, join the Linux-Noob team and download the proper client for your platform - linux only please. Then install the client and edit the /etc/yasuc.conf to reflect the proper values for the account that you created. It might also be a good idea to use cron to update the time. While you are there go into your profile and get an uptime image and place it in your signature for the linux-noob forums.

 

 

Please, no jokes about my uptime. I just installed this yesterday. :)
