Re: [CentOS] vsifax on Centos 5.1

2007-12-11 Thread Liam Kirsher
Does eula stand for End User Licensing Agreement, perhaps?  Just a guess.
If it's a script why don't you just look in it (the calling script) and
see what it's doing?
Also, maybe the eula binary exists (did you look for it?) but is not
executable, which should be easy to fix.

Yeah, I resolved that problem when I switched ISPs recently by using
something like this:

smtpd_recipient_restrictions=permit_mynetworks,permit_sasl_authenticated,reject

Re: [CentOS] Securing SSH

2008-03-25 Thread Liam Kirsher
Tim,

The important ones, imho --
1. disallow root login
2. disallow password authentication (use keys, as someone else has
described)
3. prevent multiple failed attempts using iptables:
# Log and block repeated attempts to access SSH
# See /proc/net/ipt_recent file for low-level data
# Block attempts to access SSH if 4 or more attempts made in the last 60
secs
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p tcp --syn --dport 22 -m recent --name
sshattack --set
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 --syn -m recent --name
sshattack --rcheck --seconds 60 --hitcount 4 -j LOG --log-prefix "SSH
REJECT: "
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 --syn -m recent --name
sshattack --rcheck --seconds 60 --hitcount 4 -j REJECT

4. if possible, limit ssh access to your static ip.

That all seems reasonably secure to me!

Re: [CentOS] Trying to understand Remote desktops

2007-08-22 Thread Liam Kirsher
It looks like FreeNX only runs on 32-bit, won't run on 64-bit kernel. 
Is that correct?  If so, is VNC the next best alternative?

Re: [CentOS] Trying to understand Remote desktops

2007-08-23 Thread Liam Kirsher
Okay, thanks for the tip!  Do the freenx rpm distributions for 64-bit
contain the 32-bit ones (seems like they should if they are required) or
do I have to install the 32-bit rpms separately? I'm sure I can figure
this one out, but if you happen to know, do tell!

Re: [CentOS] Postfix+MySQL - how to create DB

2008-05-06 Thread Liam Kirsher

I used postfixadmin and it has been fine.  (CentOS 5)
I suggest redirecting (in the http server) all postfixadmin access to 
https for security.

I found the db schema satisfactory for my needs.
The point with postfixadmin is the PHP interface to the database.
You /could/ just create whatever tables you needed and edit them with 
phpMyAdmin,
but postfixadmin gives you a simple interface that users and domain 
admins can use.

Hi All,

I'm toying around with Postfix and MySQL on a CentOS 4 server (no longer
using stock postfix and mysql rpms, obviously).  I've read several
"How-TOs", and it all looks fairly easy to do.

The one thing that puzzles me is the table structure for the postfix
mysql database: where is everyone getting it?  Also, I've noticed that
some people create more tables than others.  But, this looks like it's
just based on which bits of postfix people want to put into the
database.

I can just copy the SQL people have posted to create the tables I want.
I'd much rather know if there is an official source for this, though. So
far I haven't found it.

Regards,

Ranbir





Maybe postfixadmin (http://postfixadmin.sourceforge.net/) would help? at
least as a starting point...


Just my 2c

[CentOS] Help -- LVM snapshot full -- how do I recover?

2008-10-04 Thread Liam Kirsher
Hi --

I forgot to remove an LVM snapshot after making a backup.  Now neither
the snapshot nor the original volume are available.
How do I recover and get the original volume back online?

Currently, the output of lvs looks like

  LV   VG Attr   LSize   OriginSnap%  Move Log Copy% 
..  
  dom5_dataVolGroup01 -wi-ao  10.00G

  domTemplate_data VolGroup01 -wi-a-   2.00G
  
  dom6_dataVolGroup02 owi-i-  24.00G 
  dom6_snapVolGroup02 swi-d-   1.00G dom6_data 100.00  




Any help very much appreciated!
