Re: [CentOS-es] postfix con dominios virtuales+mailman
bueno siguiendo una sugerencia que me hieron (detalle abajo) Yo hace un tiempo pase por esa pesadilla de integrar mailman con un postfix con usuarios virtuales. La cosa radica, digamos que tu server se llama: server.tudominio.com Y las cuentas de correo son: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Por lo que el o uno de los dominios virtuales del server es: tudominio.com Debes lograr que los usuarios del sistema, se vean con los virtuales, es decir, que desde la cuenta [EMAIL PROTECTED] le puedas enviar un mensaje a digamos [EMAIL PROTECTED] donde esta cuenta es virtual y viceversa, desde la cuenta [EMAIL PROTECTED] que le puedas enviar a la cuenta [EMAIL PROTECTED] hice las siguientes pruebas: 1. me he logueado como root y desde alli envie una mail a [EMAIL PROTECTED] y el mensaje llega correctamente (usuario es una cuenta que se encuentra en la BD) 2. desde un cliente de email con al cuenta usuario, envio un mail a [EMAIL PROTECTED] y llega correctamente 3. desde un cliente de email con al cuenta usuario, envio un mail a [EMAIL PROTECTED], en el cliente de email me sale un mensaje que dice que el usuario root no se encuentra en el virtual mailbox, y que se revise la direccion de email. (obviante root no esta en la BD solo es cuenta del sistema) la verdad ya no se que pueda ser el problema... ___ CentOS-es mailing list CentOS-es@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-es

hola, a lo mejor es trivial pero tengo el siguiente inconveniente: he instalado un servidor con postfix y tambien squirrelmail para el webmail, resulta que dese los clientes se envia y se recive correctamente los mails, pero cuando hago uso de squirrelmail los mensajes son enviados pero de la forma: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cuando en realidad deberian ser: [EMAIL PROTECTED] esto solo ocurre cuando se hace uso del squirrelmail donde deberia revisar o realizar la correccion? ___ CentOS-es mailing list CentOS-es@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-es
Re: [CentOS] Problem installing the 53.1.6 kernel
On Jan 23, 2008 11:33 PM, Steven Vishoot [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: How long were you waiting before ctrl ^c it? are you sure you did not kill it too soon. this sounds to me to be very inpatient person trying to update kernel I'm not exactly sure - somewhere between fifteen minutes and half an hour. I checked with top before the interrupt and yum/rpm was nowhere in sight on a 50 line terminal screen, and with ps to ensure that there was no time being used by that process (ps showed that it had used a total of 14 seconds of time and did not budge from there for at least five minutes. I know (by now) not to be impatient with this sort of thing - kernels are tricky enough to work with when they work 100%.. The first time, I was surprised that it had taken so long and not finished - that's when I started to investigate. I'm thinking it might be something I installed that might have interfered, but the last successful install I did was ecasound and vobcopy, both from reliable repos, and the last unsuccessful install was k9copy which didn't like my gnome desktop or my CentOS (it's a Fedora package), so I gave up on it.

To some, an answer is I've found, in the past, that questions like this are normally indicative of the wrong question being asked. People are trying to put controls in the wrong place, thinking this is the solution to an underlying problem. When this happens at work I ask people to take a step back and to describe the problem they're trying to solve. No, you don't want cron to do xyz... explain what you think the problem is you're trying to solve in non technical terms. Very frequently there's alternate solutions to the problem. The noexec idea someone suggested was one such attempt. Historically this has been called thinking outside the box, but I prefer to think of it as analysing the real problem, what are you trying to solve; not can this technology do blah. I could not agree more about asking more detailed questions first, getting to the true source of the problem, and finding a way around that. But, not all cases can permit such questions, including this. Thanks again to all.

[CentOS] Could not connect to host box.domain.tld
I have used fetchmail/procmail/postfix/dovecot/kmail for some time on my mail server, and have set this up on three or four machines in the past. I'm now setting up a new server and having problems. I've reached the thinking-in-circles stage, so need a prompt. The box in question is called borg2.lydgate.lan, and resides at 192.168.0.40. I can ping both borg2.lydgate.lan and 192.168.0.40, yet kmail tells me that it cannot connect to it, either by name or ip. /etc/hosts has correct lines for the box. It has to be something pretty basic, but I can't think what, unless it is either an selinux problem or ipv6 problem. I know that in FC6 I turned ipv6 off (I'd have to search to find how to do that again).

I want to share my WAN side ip address to my LAN side... How can I do that on my CENTos installed server? thanks a lot to everybody... The short way, supposing your wan is secure and your wan interface is eth1: Disable any firewall rules on your centos, service iptables stop chkconfig iptables off try these commands, and if this is working put them in your /etc/init.d/rc.local # enable forwarding of packet between all interfaces echo 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward # config masquerading, any packet leaving eth1 will be masqueraded, taking eth1 address for source address. iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j MASQUERADE Another interesting way, is to setup only routing on your centos, and add (ask your network manager) the route of your internal network (I guess 192.168.10.8/29 through 192.168.10.13 ) on your firewall and maybe a similar one on your router if the firewall is not doing NAT. Then your firewall administrator can control the access to any of your internal machines or make some of them reachable from outside if for example you want to have a web server or an email server (this is not a good idea, but you get the idea). All of this without chnaging anything more on your centos router. To route packet only, without doing NAT (aka MASQUERADING or HIDE-NAT) just use echo 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward Regards Regards. 2008/1/22, Dennis McLeod [EMAIL PROTECTED] : I have an IPcop box setup at work.

I have an Astaro Security Gateway setup at home (on a Dell p3 precision 220). Free home license, do FAR more than your typical broadband router. Not a small learning curve, though. Wireless is through a D-link DWL-7100(I think) access point in the attic. I have a Linksys wrt54g (original version) with openWRT, but it's just there for backup.

Buy a small router/modem, ask your ISP for suggestions. This is cheap (100$), no need to keep your computer always turned on, very easy to configure if you nead more features (port forwarding for skype, games, p2p, ), have some builtint feature (dhcp, DNS proxy). Also think about wireless .. This is probably more secure, not because centos/linux is not, but because you dont know what you are doing. Of course this is less fun Well, I wasn't going to suggest, but since the topic of alternatives is open... :-) Of course the main idea is to avoid to have a non firewall dedicated linux (like centos is) configured by someone without to much network knowledge be in front of Internet. If you have an older available computer laying around, check out IPCop http://www.ipcop.org/ free, has lots of features, runs reliably, I've been on it for years, as have others on this list.

You will need to brute force attack the passwords, using a utility that can read the SAM registry on disk, encrypt dictionary words, common names, common passwords as well as generate passwords and compare. I don't know of such a utility, but I have a feeling that you might have better luck finding that on Windows. If that is the case then you could create a WinXP USB drive to boot from. I find it easier to steal passwords through key logging, phishing (web or wireless) or social engineering then by brute force (as a security admin I test out our corporate environment routinely). -Ross __ This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.

[CentOS] Interesting PXE server setup question
While this is not a problem with CentOS I am hoping to solve the situation using a CentOS machine. For anyone not interested I am sorry to clutter your mail box. For everyone else any ideas or suggestions are welcome. A bit of background: We have an application that runs only in DOS 6.22 at the moment that we would like to run on all of our desktop computers each time they boot up. Our workstations are mostly Windows XP with some Linux. Our goals: We would like to be able to have the machines boot into DOS and run the application and then reboot to the normal hard drive. We would like to have it require no user intervention or as little as possible. We would also like to have it only run the app during the first boot up of the day. Thoughts at the moment: One idea we have at the moment is to create a PXE server with the DOS boot image on it. (I have done that before using Windows RIS but we are trying to avoid a windows Server as RIS is a bit of a pain and it prefers user interaction. It also would not fit well with our solution to have it only run once a day.) We could then run the application and inside the DOS image we could have it reboot the machine. We could then set the client machines to boot PXE as their first boot option. The next thought was to somehow watch the connections to the tftp server where the boot image will be kept and watch for the client IP then have the PXE server create a new firewall rule that would block access from that client to tftp. The thought there is that once the client has downloaded the boot image once it will run it and then on reboot will not be able to find the boot image and, I think, would fail at the pxe boot and move on to the next item in the boot list. Then every midnight the list of blocked IPs would be cleared and we start the process over again. So any suggestions on the best way to take a bootable DOS disk and turn it into an image that a Linux based PXE server can serve, ways to monitor the tftp connections and then add them to the firewall after they have finished downloading the boot image, and any ideas on any better ideas would be appreciated.

I would probably have the default pxelinux.cfg file do a localboot, then every morning have a script create the appropriate pxelinux config file for each mac/ip address which instead of doing a localboot does your dos boot disk. Running a job to scan the log files for clients that have run the dos program can then remove the specific file, causing subsequent reboots to go to the default file and local boot.

Re: [CentOS] Interesting PXE server setup question
Grub is able to boot on a partition and set a new default one at next reboot. I use it to make a systematic reboot after a cold reboot, because my motherboard dont detect my second sata at first boot. Or using the old way, just switch your default partition using parted or gpart or anything elese. I used this to make a copy of a win2000 partition to a tape drive or another partition from a linux partition. The initiation was done from the window that was changing the default boot partition before to init a reboot, and linux was reseting the original boot before to backup the partition and reboot. Hope this will give you some idea. On Jan 24, 2008 4:36 PM, Rob Lines [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: While this is not a problem with CentOS I am hoping to solve the situation using a CentOS machine.

Scott XP passwords are stored as hashes. You need to brute-force guess and compare the created hashes to the stored ones. If the user has the same password stored in programs like outlook express, that is much easier. But forensically, changing the password to gain access is usually sufficient. Knowing the original password is not that valuable in a legal scenario, as you will need a warrant anyway to access anything else that might be protected by that password. If it is that critical, find a certified PC forensics specialist.

any idea why your eth1 is named dev707 ?
no :(
Is their any problem to use this name ?
every time I reboot system it change name to dev343, dev436 etc etc etc
You could try to add this line to /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

[CentOS] Shearing file systems on the network

Systems 2,3,4 should be able to remotely mount Partition1 from System1. Also System2 has Partition2. Then systems 1,3,4 should be able to remotely mount Partition2 from System2 and so on.

It's a known issue and I believe you guys are aware of it but I just had to see it myself. What would you recommend? What is the best practice for doing that?

For anyone not interested I am sorry to clutter your mail box. For everyone else any ideas or suggestions are welcome. A bit of background: We have an application that runs only in DOS 6.22 at the moment that we would like to run on all of our desktop computers each time they boot up. Our workstations are mostly Windows XP with some Linux. Our goals: We would like to be able to have the machines boot into DOS and run the application and then reboot to the normal hard drive. We would like to have it require no user intervention or as little as possible. We would also like to have it only run the app during the first boot up of the day. Sounds similar to how xCAT manages nodes in an HPC cluster when using local OS installs. Nodes' BIOS are set to netboot first, and harddrive second. In the event of tftp/dhcp not functioning, the nodes will boot normally. Scripts on the PXE server write PXE config files that cause the nodes to local boot (the common state), boot a kickstart installer, or any other misc boot image. DOS images are commonly used to configure BIOS and NVRAM. The trick is getting a .bat script in the DOS image to run a command on the PXE server that eventually re-writes the PXE config file. One method is to use a tiny DOS tcp stack and ssh client (yes, this exists and works great). Another method is to connect to a daemon running on the PXE server. The former requires shell/bat scripting, the later requires some actual programming. pgpdWd7ojUsIv.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] Protection for removable hard drive
My apologies if this is a bit off topic... I am going to start doing backups to removable hard drives and I will need to send these hard drives to an off-site storage facility. I am looking for some way to protect the drives after I pull them out of the system. I was hoping to find some kind of clamshell enclosure similar to what is used with external hard drives, but so far I haven't found anything. Do you guys know of anything like this?

I never really understood why it would change what it found during the initial install after a reboot. I haven't disabled Kudzu on most of my systems, but I really do wonder if there is really any reason to keep it running after the initial system install. These servers might get a new drive from time to time, only replacing a drive in the array with a like drive. Maybe some additional ram. Almost never any other hardware changes... I'm fairly confident that these changes are all handled entirely by the system's bios, either machine or raid interface bios.

New ram is picked up automatically(unless your on 32-bit and need to upgrade to a PAE kernel or something). I don't change the local disk count but many systems are constantly getting/removing disks from the SAN, (primarily software iSCSI), no kudzu needed. When I manipulate FC connected systems I just use the /proc/scsi/scsi interface, it's fairly simple. Also most of my servers have dual network ports, and most are on only one network so I bond the interfaces together(active/failover) so either/or/both NICs can be plugged in and it'll work fine.

STARTTLS is offered but not used. I wonder that you can LOGIN with PLAIN
though the default is to not permit plaintext logins without encryption.
Thus I beg you to set the additional parameter inside imapd.conf.
done.
What does `sivtest' tell you?

Ok. The server even fails to offer authentication properly. Please run
it again in verbose mode with parameter -v.
Not too much difference from previous one:

Again no SASL offering. Please check your cyrus-sasl installs.
$ rpm -qa | grep cyrus
cyrus-sasl-2.1.22-4 - see here
cyrus-imapd-2.3.7-1.1.el5
cyrus-sasl-lib-2.1.22-4- and here
cyrus-imapd-perl-2.3.7-1.1.el5
cyrus-imapd-utils-2.3.7-1.1.el5
And test
following: Run
openssl s_client -connect localhost:2000 -starttls smtp
CONNECTED(0003)
22760:error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown

Does that offer SASL then? You can too test with
sivtest -u [EMAIL PROTECTED] -a [EMAIL PROTECTED] -t

Try with non LOGIN nor PLAIN mech.
How could we do that ?
man sivtest - -m mech
Yep, but which method should we use after -m ... auxprop ?
No. In imapd.conf you specified your own
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN
so it should be obvious which mechanism you can choose. As you
previously said running sasldb I thought you would offer MD5 mechs, and
thus my suggestion.
So, to offer MD5 we could add it to sasl_mech_list ? Something like:
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN MD5
Please report back.
