  Netgear router/switch VLANs?
Posted by: sixtymhz - 2005-01-04, 01:57 AM - Forum: Wireless - No Replies


If I have a network with three "departments" (for home) and I need to make sure each department doesn't infect other computers with viruses, how can I go about doing so with Netgear equipment?

 

 

Room 1 (personal)

Room 2 (business + server)

Room 3 (fun, experiment)

 

 

Room 3 gets a viruses but doesnt infect Room 1 or 2.

 

 

Thanks!!

If anything, suggestions would be nice.

I am willing to change anything (equipment wise and wiring)

Is there such a program for linux? Similar to, lets say SiSoft Sandra for windows?

Also, is there a linux program that lets u mount .iso files and other images? Similar to deamon-tools?

  can't surf/slow surfing in Fedora ?
Posted by: anyweb - 2005-01-03, 10:52 AM - Forum: Web Browsers - Replies (1)


If you find that browsing webpages in FireFox is particularly slow, or non-responsive in Fedora Core Release 3, but other apps like GAIM/IRC and so on work just fine, then check the following in FireFox.

 

type the following address into the address bar

 



Code:
about:config




 

and scroll down to the following value

 

network.dns.disableIPV6

 

change the setting from false (default) to True by right clicking the value and choose 'toggle'

 

see screenshot,

 

close FireFox and start Firefox again, notice any difference ?

 

cheers

  if squid won't start in smoothwall
Posted by: anyweb - 2005-01-02, 09:40 PM - Forum: Security and Firewalls - No Replies


i couldnt for the life of me figure out why squid (the web proxy) in smoothwall would not start, until while looking at another problem i perused through some logs (in /var/log/squid) and found a file there called cache.log.1

 

a quick look in it revealed

 

Quote:2005/01/02 21:53:55| Current Directory is /home/httpd/cgi-bin2005/01/02 21:53:55| urlParse: Illegal character in hostname 'ln_fw'
 

and that was it !

 

that little _ (illegal hostname charecter) was causing squid to fail to start,

 

to fix it, i had to as root type

 

setup

 

scroll down to hostname

 

and change the hostname from ln_fw to lnfw

 

saved the changes and rebooted, and all is fine now

 

for those of you that don't use smoothwall or squid check out what it can report in this screenshot

 

cheers

  clear logs in smoothwall
Posted by: anyweb - 2005-01-02, 05:13 PM - Forum: Security and Firewalls - Replies (8)


create a simple script such as this

 



Code:
#!/bin/sh

#To clear the Snort logs:

echo > /var/log/snort/alert
rm -Rf /var/log/snort/*.*.*.*

#and to clear your firewall log:

echo > /var/log/messages

#To clear old Snort and firewall logs:

rm -f /var/log/messages.*
rm -f /var/log/snort/alert.*

# delete snort log dir and all files in it

rm -rf /var/log/snort

#recreate snort with correct permissions

mkdir /var/log/snort

echo > /var/log/snort/alert
echo > /var/log/snort/portscan.log

chmod 664 /var/log/snort/alert
chmod 664 /var/log/snort/portscan.log

chown -R snort:snort /var/log/snort


#restart snort
restartsnort
echo -----------------------------
ls -al /var/log/snort/
echo -----------------------------
echo Logs are all cleared.
echo if you see /var/log/snort/alert or
echo /var/log/snort/portscan.log still belonging to root then manually chown them
echo -----------------------------
echo all done.




 

then make it executable

 



Code:
chmod +x cleanup




 

then add it as a cron job if you wish or run it manually when the logs start filling up your hard disc (and they will....)

 

thats it !

cheers
