my l2tp connection stopped
I was bought a Xen vps and wanna let my friends use l2tp to
connect it. Here is it info.
Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Jan 12 03:40:32 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Debian GNU/Linux 6.0
My problem is when I use an android to connect with server,
sometime (not more then 1/10) will be successed, others will failure.
server stop response after "STATE_QUICK_R2: IPsec SA established

Not really, as he is building on stable, using (I guess) the source from sid, which has the latest version. There is a new distro, Progress Linux [1], which is essentially squeeze + some backports.

You were initially correct. Running samba alone would be simpler from a troubleshooting perspective. I suggest you try that, get it working (there are numerous tutorials on the web, forum posts, the archive for debian-user and probably a samba ML) and then compare the config to what nautilus-share is creating.

Building Chromium from source on Debian 6.0.1 Stable
Following my previous question, someone recommended I build Chromium from source. Is that possible to do on Stable? I tried to do it from apt-get, but there were still dependency issues. Am I doing it wrong? Should I be doing it another way? If I remember correctly, I tried... sudo apt-get source chromium-browser sudo apt-get build-dep chromium-browser And before I could compile it using apt-get, it gave me a bunch of dependency issues.

Strange Bind 9 crash (lenny, squeeze)
Hi.
At $workplace, two of our internal, caching DNS servers, running Bind
9 experienced crashes in quick order today.
I was wondering if other Debian users with Bind 9 have experienced
similar crashes lately, and know how to avoid them (installing other
recursive DNS servers is, of course, an option).
They were both running 1:9.6.ESV.R4+dfsg-0+lenny1 at the time, and
here's the log lines from daemon.log I think are relevant (the logs
are fairly spammy):
May 26 17:16:14 dns2 named[13336]: buffer.c:285: REQUIRE(b->used + 1
<= b->length) failed
May 26 17:16:14 dns2 named[13336]: exiting (due to assertion failure)
May 26 17:36:15 dns1 named[4488]: buffer.c:285: REQUIRE(b->used + 1 <=
b->length) failed
May 26 17:36:15 dns1 named[4488]: exiting (due to assertion failure)
I then upgraded "dns2" to squeeze, which provides 1:9.7.3.dfsg-1~squeeze1.
There was a change: more log entries in daemon.log:
May 26 22:26:19 dns2 named[1608]: buffer.c:285: REQUIRE(b->used + 1 <=
b->length) failed, back trace

May 26 22:26:19 dns2 named[1608]: exiting (due to assertion failure)
The relevant code snippet from lib/isc/buffer.c is:
void
isc__buffer_putuint48(isc_buffer_t *b, isc_uint64_t val) {
isc_uint16_t valhi;
isc_uint32_t vallo;
REQUIRE(ISC_BUFFER_VALID(b));
REQUIRE(b->used + 6 <= b->length);
valhi = (isc_uint16_t)(val >> 32);
vallo = (isc_uint32_t)(val & 0x);
ISC__BUFFER_PUTUINT16(b, valhi);
ISC__BUFFER_PUTUINT32(b, vallo);
}
This function is used via the macro isc_buffer_putuint48 only in lib/dns/tsig.c.
I have googled for these problems, and found other examples of Bind 9
falling over because of assertion failures, but not for this
particular case. I have also found that Bind 10 has copied this code
verbatim, which may not be such a good idea, if it falls over every so
often. :)

Maybe after formating the permissions in the filesystem were set to 0777, and later, when I copied the files with "cp -a" the permissions to the root node remained untouched.

To add to this, Windows games (and thus most Wine users) need the 32-bit OpenGL libraries to get 3D acceleration, and they are not available as a package for amd64 (yet). So yes, there are valid reasons to run 32-bit Linux even on 64-bit systems. For myself, I run i386 on my Pentium D because 64-bit support on the earlier Intel models was actually slower than 32-bit -- but with the amd64 kernel. This works fine except it used to break dkms (it tried to compile 32-bit modules, which the 64-bit kernel won't load).

If you must use PAM, consider a usage of pam_listfile and an authorized list of target users, or setting sense=deny and blacklisting root specifically. Configuring multiple pam modules to work together may be necessary to meet every part of your requirement, and this can be complicated and invites serious study and testing prior to implementation. If PAM is not an absolute requirement, simply consider allowing the specific su commands via sudo. The sudo configuration is a much more straightforward access control and can be easily configured not to require passwords. A basic sudoers example is listed: User_AliasSU_USERS = username1,username2,username3 #users who may use su-to-user Cmnd_AliasSU_NOT_ROOT = /usr/bin/su - targetuser1, /usr/bin/su - targetuser2 SU_USERS ALL = NOPASSWD: SU_NOT_ROOT now username1, 2 and 3 can sudo su - targetuser1 or sudo su - targetuser2 without password, and attempts to su - or sudo su - will fail and be logged.

The kernel does not, AFAIK, modify the filesystem permissions on boot. They are set as an attribute in the root inode. Instead of thinking of the filesystem as permissionless before boot, consider that even when turned off, the permissions attribute is set. If you take the drive out and attach it to another system to analyze, you will see the same permissions, since they are stored in the filesystem. > > The problem is really serious, as it allows the plain user to change > configuration of machine... > I hope it is a silly misconfiguration in 2 of my machines...

You would do that via cp, rsync, etc. Something like this could work: mount -o bind / /mnt # view of the / file systems without any other mounts under /mnt mount -o remount,ro /usr # Make sure no one is writing to the /usr file system rsync -HaAxX --progress --stats /usr/. /mnt/usr # Copy the data, including hard links, acls, and extended attributes umount /mnt # Remove the view sync;sync;sync # Precaution umount /usr # Fully unmount /usr, exposing the copy created on the / file system Why doesn't LVM do this? Because, you might not put file systems on LVs and it doesn't understand the dozen different file systems you might have on the two LVs, even if they are both file systems. LVM operates at the LE / PE (block) level, it doesn't really understand anything besides that. vgmerge exists because that can be handled at the block level basically by rewriting all the metadata on one VG. We can know that is the correct operation because only LVM itself reads / writes that metadata. lvmerge could certainly be done at the block level, but then the file systems or device mapper devices or whatever you put on top of your LVs could be confused. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. b...@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/\_/ signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Re: Wrong permissions to "/" in my debian/testing system
How many machines are we talking about? It seems coincidental. The only corollation is that squeeze did move to using UUIDs by default. I've investigated 5 machines. In three of them permissions are set to 0755 and in two to 0777. I've tried to boot different kernels (with initrd and without initrd), boot with "init=/bin/bash" to skip running all init scripts, but results are still the same. The most interesting fact is that even for the same standard Debian kernel 2.6.38.2 permissions in machines differ... I tried to investigate in sources how kernel selects initial permissions for root node, but I didn't succeed... The problem is really serious, as it allows the plain user to change configuration of machine...

Feeling safer and being safer are not the same. I bet you agree with that. The way I understand it is that clamv doesn't protect a Debian machine so, having no other OS here, it has no function I can use.

You haven't mentioned whether the proprietary Broadcom driver provides full speed. Thus, we don't know if your card has a problem, or if you simply can't get the FLOSS driver working. If the Broadcom driver works, why are you beating your head against the wall with the FLOSS driver problem? You also haven't mentioned your testing methodology. If your test consists of pulling a file via FTP over your home wired broadband connection, which is only 1mb/s, then of course you'll only get 1mb/s RX rates. If test is over public WiFi with a verified throughput higher than 1mb/s, then that information is obviously relevant.

It claims there's a bad password, but I've triple checked that. It's correct. I'm including the relevant information from the wicd log below. I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

I start wicd on a console with wicd-curses and in X with wicd-gtk. My logs show no wicd-cli calls at all. Hope this helps, some WT My old eyes are seeing things.

In Ubuntu land, there have been many references to this type of problem. The bottom line appears to be that 'wicd' and 'network-manager' get installed together (that is, when you install 'wicd', 'network-manager' is not removed), and they interfere with each other. Remove *all* packages related to 'network-manager' that are installed. This has worked for me on several different Ubuntu/Kubuntu releases.

One problem I did have with clamav was when it was run to scan everything. It would get stuck in the /sys directory for some reason. So, I excluded that directory, and it has worked fine since. I use the command line to run it, and I run it as root user. I have a file called "theclam" which I keep in my /usr/local/bin directory (so that I can simply type "theclam" -- w/out quotes -- to run it). The file contains the following: exec clamscan / --exclude-dir=/sys --detect-pua --detect-broken -i -r --log=/home/mark/clamscanresult -v --max-filesize=4000m The above doesn't delete the files that it flags. Instead, within the log file, it marks them as "FOUND -- blah blah explanation blah". I then do a case-sensitive search for the word "FOUND", and check out the files. Rather than the older "volatile" repository, you need the following in your sources.list to get the most recent updates: # latest clamav clamav-daemon and avscan for squeeze deb http://mirrors.kernel.org/debian squeeze-updates main contrib Also, to scan rar files, you'll need the libclamunrar package (I think it's libclamunrar6), along with either unrar from non-free, or unrar-free. libclamunrar is in the aforementioned squeeze-updates repository.

Samba usershares & permissions problem
I have a fairly simple requirement I am running Debian Unstable on my Desktop and I want to provide a folder for my Windows 7 laptop to deposit some files. I thought that the simplest approach would be using samba on its own, but I then discovered the existance of nautilus-share which should make it so much easier when I want to swap around things. I followed instructions in /usr/share/doc/nautilus-share, adding myself to the sambashare group and right clicking on an appropriate folder inside my home dir (several layers in) and adding sharing. Clicking on guests-allow. Checking the permissions of things /var/lib/samba/usershares is 1777 and owned by root:sambashare the file inside /var/lib/samba/usershare that represents my share has permissions 644 and is owned by alan:alan (ie me). Its contents include the path to my share and the following two lines. usershare_acl=S-1-1-0:F guest_ok=y the directory I am pointing to (ie the one I am sharing) has ownership alan:sambashare and 777 permissions. When I scan the network in Windows 7 in normal mode, it can't find my machine. However I am able to connect by entering \\Kanga (my machines name) and then its sees it. I can now read from this share, but not write to it. Looking in the samba log (or more explicitly /var/log/samba/log.smbd I see my windows laptop log in as user nobody and then get permission denied.

LVM: combining two logical volumes, how?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 In a box with Squeeze I have one volume group (VG1) with only one (at the moment) physical volume (/dev/md1). Two of the six current logical volumes (LV) in VG1 are are /dev/VG1/root (/) and /dev/VG1/usr. I want to (1) enlarge /dev/VG1/root, (2) transfer the contents of /dev/VG1/usr to it, and (3) remove /dev/VG1/usr. Enlarging /dev/VG1/root is easy (I think) using the lvextend command, and so is removing /dev/VG1/usr using the lvremove command. What I cannot find is any command or information to do the second step, transfer the entire contents of one LV to another. Is it possible to do what I want to do?

no beep under emacs
Hi, I have the following pbm with emacs (23.2.1) under squeeze and gnome desktop (2.30.2): I don't hear any beep when pressing, e.g., Ctl g. When running emacs within a terminal, with emacs -nw, I hear the beep. Running it in a X window (as ussual) I don't hear any beep. It seems that gnome has redirected the system beep, so that other applications (terminal, gedit,...) are correctly producing the beep (which is not the internal PC beep, but a new sound defined with the system default sound theme), but this simply doesn't work for emacs. If anyone has an idea to fix this, I would be interested. I was wondering if compiling emacs from the sources would solve it. Thank's in advance.

A newbie might think they are being left out in the cold. However being a newbie you may not yet have the feeling of Debian and are offended unreasonably and unjustifiably. I've installed clamav on windows computers, on many occasions. But never required it, nor installed it, for Debian or any other Linux flavour. Other Linux users probably have the same experience as my own. I thought you were putting it onto a personal computer, not a server and just wanted to play with it.

I have had a problem with ClamAV under Lenny (needs permissions changed), but no problems with Squeeze (KDE). By no problems I mean I still get the warning on shutting down ClamAV GUI that freshclam is being terminated, but it's not a real error. Freshclam still runs whether the ClamAV GUI is up or not. As pointed out by others - antivirus utilities have little use in Linux, I only install it on machines where the user will be sending files from Windoof users to Windoof users... especially as users can *not* execute files in their home directories (with my builds).
