  Setting up a Wireless card
Posted by: xDamox - 2005-03-05, 05:37 PM - Forum: Tips and Tricks - No Replies


This little guide will help you install the following Wireless network card into Fedora Core 3 :)

 



Code:
card "ATMEL 11 Mbps Wireless RFMD PCMCIA Card"
card "ATMEL 11 Mbps Wireless 504 PCMCIA Card"
card "ATMEL 11 Mbps Wireless 504A PCMCIA Card"
card "ATMEL 11 Mbps Wireless 504+2958 PCMCIA Card"
card "ATMEL 11 Mbps Wireless RFMD Revision D PCMCIA Card"
card "ATMEL 11 Mbps Wireless RFMD Revision E PCMCIA Card"
card "Sitecom WLAN-011"
card "Belkin F5D6020"
card "3Com 3CRWE62092B 11Mbps WLAN PC Card"
card "3Com 3CRSHPW_96 Wireless LAN PC Card"
card "SMC 2632W V2 11Mbps 802.11b WLAN Card"
card "SMC 2632W V3 11Mbps 802.11b WLAN Card"
card "Actiontec 802CAT1"
card "BT Voyager 1020"
card "Siemens Gigaset PC Card II"
card "CNet CNWLC-811ARL"
card "Planet WL-3552"
card "OEM 11Mbps WLAN PCMCIA Card"
card "11WAVE WaveBuddy RFMD Revision E PC Card"
card "LG LW2100N 11Mbps WLAN PCMCIA Card"




 

The first set to installing your card is to check that it can be picked up the hardware. issue

the following command

 



Code:
cardctl ident




 

You should get a response back similar to the following

 



Code:
Socket 0:
 product info: " ", "WCard"
 manfid: 0xd601, 0x0007
 function: 6 (network)




 

Once that is done you can download the atmel drivers from [/url][url=http://thekelleys.org.uk/atmel/]http://thekelleys.org.uk/atmel/

download the Fedora core 3 version and do rpm -i <package.rpm>

 

once that is done restart the pcmcia by issueing the following

 



Code:
/etc/init.d/pcmcia restart




 

once that is done do tail /var/log/messages you shoul see your wireless card as shown below:

 



Code:
Mar  5 16:45:25 localhost kernel: eth1: Atmel at76c50x wireless. Version 0.96 simon@thekelleys.org.uk
Mar  5 16:45:25 localhost kernel: eth1: Sitecom WLAN-011 index 0x01: Vcc 3.3, irq 3, io 0x0100-0x011f




 

Well thats it hope this helps you :)

  My mod_rewrite guide
Posted by: hijinks - 2005-03-05, 01:22 PM - Forum: LAMP - Replies (1)


So I got bored and since I'm doing a lot of mod_rewrite work lately, I have decided to do a little mod_rewrite guide. If anyone wants something done I can try to do it.. but for now I will just explain what things do. The syntax of mod_rewrite is almost like sendmail.. but once you understand it you can do some really great things.

 

So we'll start off with just a common use for mod_rewrite. I always keep all my images in like /var/www/html/images. So this will show a default error image not found image instead of that nasty broken image box with the X in it. So you want to create a .htaccess file in the /var/www/html/images dir. Then place the following lines in it.

 



Code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.+) /images/404.png




 

So the first line just tells apache to turn on mod_rewrite.

 

The second line is a conditional statement. It says move on to the next line if the requested file does not exist. So the condition is the !-f. The -f checks if the request is for a file. So the ! in front of it is a common programming practice and that basically negates what comes after it. So the total line means if the request is for a file that does no exist in the directory

 

Then the last line says take any input and replace it with /images/404.png.

 

So if i have this in html

 



Code:
<img src=/images/bla.jpg>




 

if there is no bla.jpg in the images dir it will show a 404.png in its place. Don't worry about image format differences. The browser will hande it.

 

more to come when i get bored.

  How to upgrade from FC2 to FC3
Posted by: godskalk - 2005-03-02, 11:17 PM - Forum: Fedora Core Release 2 - Replies (2)


Hey, here is a neat way to upgrade from FC2 to FC3 without doing a clean install, but using apt-get.

 

First you must find the apt repositories from somewhere, I used this page right here: Fedora Apt/Yum Repositories list.

 

Now go to your server and doing as root and backup the apt sources.list



Code:
cd /etc/apt
cp sources.list sources.backup




 

Now, edit the sources.list. Remove everything inside and replace with the apt links from the Fedora Apt/Yum Repositories list.

 

Save and exit, then do an update and upgrade with apt-get.

 



Code:
apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y




 

This will take a while :)When finnished, reboot and you will have Fedora Core 3.

 

I dont know if this is a good way for doing it but it worked for me, so far so good.

  limit ssh connections - OLD METHOD - DO NOT USE.
Posted by: anyweb - 2005-03-02, 12:59 PM - Forum: Remote Access - Replies (8)


to avoid brute forcing on your ssh, limit connections to it using iptables

 



Code:
iptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -m limit --limit 2/minute --limit-burst 1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j REJECT --reject-with tcp-reset




 

please note if the above doesnt work for you then check if lokkit is running (fedoras/redhat's firewall)

 

disable it if it is and use iptables to control your ports instead

 

 

Quote:iptables-save
will list any previously saved iptables rules.

  Help with apt-get source lists
Posted by: d03boy - 2005-03-01, 08:39 AM - Forum: Debian - Replies (3)

Well, I'm a noob. I went to apt-get.com and added some source lists to my source.list file. How many is normal to have? I had about 20, but after receiving some errors from apt-get update I removed the ones causing problems. So I have about 15 now. I am wondering if anyone has any good tips for making a source list file.
