PPPD n VPNS: Preventing simultaneous logins
I've installed a poptop based VPN and now I need some way to prevent that the same account can be used to establish simultaneous connections (VPN sessions) to the server. Using fixed addresses is not an option, it's not possible. The first thing I thought was grepping the 'ps axuw' command inside ip-up scripts to see if this account is already running pppd, but it's not possible since: 1. pppd runs suid root so I cannot differentiate between different running pppds, 2. ip-up scripts doesn't get login information, just enough to set up some routes. And even if it worked it wouldn't be an elegant solution. Searching the web I found that radius has ways to prevent this (apt-cache show yardradius). But before getting inside this I thought that it'd better to get some advice. Should I use radius, ldap or another authentication mecanism? Which one? and, Is there another way to achieve this? Thanks in advance to everyone and sorry for the yes or no questions, my english is not that good. :) -- Claudio M. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: [G] can't get mysqld to acceppt connections ..
When you create a user on mysql you have to specify where he is connecting from. Try creating the user again adding a @% (any host) or @196.7.39.241 to its username ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).

What I need to do later is to provide my clients with weblog statistics, and with this configuration I only get one vcommon type log file, then I need to split them in a format that I can later give to webalizer or analog. Have some one knows a good solution for this? Thanks. You can use the TransferLog directive withing the virtualhost context to specify where you want those logs. -- Koba

I'm testing the Apache/2.0.45 PHP/4.3.1 combination and it works like a charm. You'll notice a huge speedup in php scripts if you are upgrading from apache 1.x. squirrelmail.org does not recommend using apache2 with it, but I didn't have any problem so far. -- Koba
