Smart Ass Answer #5:

 

A flight attendant was stationed at the departure gate to check tickets. As a man approached, she extended her hand for the ticket and he opened his trench coat and flashed her. Without missing a beat, she said, "Sir, I need to see your ticket, not your stub."

 

Smart Ass Answer #4:

 

A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store, but she couldn't find one big enough for her family. She asked a stock boy, "Do these turkeys get any bigger?" The stock boy replied, "No ma'am, they're dead."

 

Smart Ass Answer #3:

 

The cop got out of his car and the kid who was stopped for speeding rolled down his window. "I've been waiting for you all day," the cop said. The kid replied, "Yeah, well I got here as fast as I could." When the cop finally stopped laughing, he sent the kid on his way without a ticket.

 

Smart Ass Answer #2:

 

A truck driver was driving along on the freeway. A sign comes up that reads, "Low Bridge Ahead." Before he knows it, the bridge is right ahead of him and he gets stuck under the bridge. Cars are backed up for miles. Finally, a police car comes up. The cop gets out of his car and walks to the truck driver, puts his hands on his hips and says, "Got stuck, huh?" The truck driver says, "No, I was delivering this bridge and ran out of gas."

 

AND NOW FOR THE #1 SMART ASS ANSWER OF 2004!

 

A college teacher reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam. "Now class, I won't tolerate any excuses for you not being here tomorrow. I might consider a nuclear attack or a serious personal injury or illness, or a death in your immediate family, but that's it, no other excuses whatsoever!" A smart ass guy in the back of the room raised his hand and asked, "What would you say if tomorrow I said I was suffering from complete and utter sexual exhaustion?" The entire class is reduced to laughter and snickering. When silence was restored, the teacher smiled knowingly at the student, shaking her head and sweetly said "Well, I guess you'd have to write the exam with your other hand."

  chrooting SSH on Fedora Core 3
Posted by: xDamox - 2005-03-28, 03:15 PM - Forum: Remote Access - Replies (6)


First off install ssh (must be the PAM enabled version)and you also need the libpam_chroot module.

if you have install ssh by default on fedora this module is installed :)

 

Ok so they should be installed.

 

Then edit "/etc/pam.d/sshd".

 



Code:
#%PAM-1.0 auth       required     pam_stack.so service=system-auth auth       required     pam_nologin.so account    required     pam_stack.so service=system-auth password   required     pam_stack.so service=system-auth session    required     pam_stack.so service=system-auth session    required     pam_chroot.so




 

if you do have pam_limits.so in the sshd config file comment it out with a # or remove the line

Hopefully a pam 'head' can explain why the limit file gives difficulties... probably something simple.

 

Ok so now when ssh uses pam it should use the pam_chroot. Thats what we just setup. Now we need to tell ssh to actaully use it [img]<___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_laugh.png[/img]

 

Edit "/etc/ssh/sshd_config". I'm not going to put in the WHOLE sshd_config file here just the two lines that require to be set the ... represent the rest of the file.

 



Code:
#normally this is yes.. so switch to no UsePrivilegeSeparation no #normally this is yes...but check UsePAM yes




 

Ok it should be stressed that you should NEVER run ssh with UsePriv.. set to no unless you plan on chroot'in. This basically gives ssh the ability to be root, this can lead to real dangers. We need it to run as root because we cannot chroot the user into the new chroot enviroment unless we are root.

 

Right.. so sshd is ready... Now to finish off the PAM setup.

 

Edit "/etc/security/chroot.conf"

 



Code:
znx /home/chroot




 

NOW we're ready.... Restart your ssh daemon to get the new config:

 



Code:
/etc/init.d/sshd restart




 

Once you have got this far you will want to chown /home/znx to root:root

 



Code:
chown root.root /home/znx




 

The finally change the permission to 755

 



Code:
chmod 755 /home/znx




 

you will need to add the binarys and library files to the chroot as shown below:

 



Code:
# cd /home/ # mkdir chroot # cd chroot/ # mkdir bin lib # cp /bin/bash bin/ # ldd /bin/bash libncurses.so.5 => /lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x40025000)       libdl.so.2 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libdl.so.2 (0x40062000)       libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0x40065000)       /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) # cp /lib/libncurses.so.5 lib/ # mkdir lib/tls/i686/cmov -p # cp /lib/ld-linux.so.2 lib/ # cp /lib/tls/i686/cmov/{libdl.so.2,libc.so.6} lib/ # cd # chroot /home/chroot/ /bin/bash bash-2.05b# ls bash: ls: command not found bash-2.05b# exit




 

Well thats it. The ssh daemon will now force a user into the chroot 'jail' using PAM. Lets test...

 



Code:
# ssh -l znx localhost Password: ******* Last login: Fri Mar 25 19:28:08 2005 from localhost.localdomain -bash-2.05b$ ls -bash: ls: command not found -bash-2.05b$ logout Connection to ubuntu closed.




 

Jy provided a link to the following site with a script that will move the binarys and librarys to the chrooted dir:

  keep fedora up to date using apt
Posted by: anyweb - 2005-03-27, 11:06 PM - Forum: Fedora - No Replies


if you want to automate fedora keeping up to date, and you use apt (as in apt-get)

 

then try this (as root)

 



Code:
vi /etc/cron.daily/apt.sh




 

 

then paste the following into the blank file

 



Code:
#!/bin/sh apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y




 

now save the file and make it executable

 



Code:
chmod +x apt.sh




 

to test it try doing this

 



Code:
sh /etc/cron.daily/apt.sh




 

and you'll see something like the following:

  My fluxbox desktop on gentoo
Posted by: andreas - 2005-03-26, 10:55 PM - Forum: Linux - Replies (3)


bah. The fluxbox and (xmms) theme is called LDC, [get]. I'm using the really nice artwiz font called snap, and the thing in the upper left is torsmo [get], with a custom, gentoo-colored interface. If you want the config-file for it, ask me. The wallpaper is called 'Chronicles Of Time', made by dilekt @ deviantart, [here], his wallpapers are awesome, you should check them out. (I don't have to tell you that those terminals are aterm's.)

  PAM Problems
Posted by: xDamox - 2005-03-25, 05:10 PM - Forum: Remote Access - Replies (6)


Hi,

 

I was wanting to setup SSH so that users SSHing into my machine would be in a chroot. well

I notice PAM supports this feature so heres what I did:

 

first I added a user to the machine called test I issued the following command:

 



Code:
system-config-users




 

Once I added my user I when to the /etc/security/chroot.conf and added the following:

 



Code:
test /home/test




 

Once that was done I when to /etc/pam.d and edited the SSHD file and added the following:

 



Code:
session    required      pam_chroot.so




 

Now that I did that I edited sshd_config to use pam and also set UsePrivilegeSeparation value

to no. now that was done I did:

 



Code:
service sshd restart




 

and when I did ssh -l test localhost I logged into test and was able to cd /

 

the security logs show the following info:

 



Code:
Mar 25 15:56:07 localhost sshd[6432]: Failed gssapi-with-mic for test from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 port 33182 ssh2 Mar 25 15:56:07 localhost sshd[6432]: Failed gssapi-with-mic for test from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 port 33182 ssh2 Mar 25 15:56:10 localhost sshd[6432]: Accepted password for test from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 port 33182 ssh2 Mar 25 15:56:10 localhost pam_chroot[6433]: /home/test is writable by non-root




 

any ideas?
