The literal easiest way is probably to reinstall from scratch as a minimal system, then install openssh-server. If you want to transform your current system by removing externally-accessible services, I don't know of a strictly "easy" way, but if I wanted to do that on a machine under my control, what I'd do is: * Get a list of open ports by running 'nmap localhost' (or by running nmap against the system from a different machine, which might give more reliable results). * Do some guesswork against the installed package list to figure out what might be opening each of the listed ports. * Remove all of those packages except for the chosen SSH server package. The guesswork is the difficult part, and although it doesn't seem terribly difficult from my end when I do a trial run (omitting the final "remove" part) on my own system, I can imagine that it could easily enough be more difficult under your circumstances. I don't have any good suggestions for how to make it any easier. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.

easiest way to shut down all network services besides ssh?
I have a system that I would like to make accessible only by ssh. No apache telnet ftp anything else. What is the easiest way to achieve this? It came from a vendor with a slew of package of all sorts, so I don't even know everything that I want to remove.

mounting removable media without systemd on Jessie
Just posting something I discovered recently in case anybody's interested... On a Jessie system without systemd you can mount USB sticks and other removable media using the pmount command, as others have pointed out on this list. I was looking for a gui method, and I've found it. Spacefm is a file manager that will use any of the following to mount removable media: udevil pmount udisks2 (depends on libpam-systemd) udisks I've tested its use with pmount and udevil and they both work. I find udevil a bit nicer, because I was able to get the mount point to be /media/$USER/label by setting the following in /etc/udevil/udevil.conf: allowed_media_dirs = /media/$USER I'm not claiming that this is a perfect solution. For instance, spacefm and udevil are currently unmaintained. But I thought some folks on this list would be interested to know about this option anyway. -Rob signature.asc Description: Digital signature

It's a different OS, may well be a different CPU. You would need to have an emulator to emulate the OS, and probably the CPU, as well. It would be nice if such an emulator existed, but I doubt it. Writing an emulator is hard work and takes a fair mount of time. > My interest is in logistics, as I realize the software may be better suited > for networks, not individual computers. > Thanks, > Karen Worderfect 5 for the old classic Mac OS might run under one of the Macintosh emulators. Wine Is Not an Emulator, but it does something sort of like emulation and allows some older versions of WordPerfect for DOS or MSWindows OS x86 to run on Linux, as has been mentioned. Not very satisfactory, however. Better option is to set up a virtual machine (another kind of emulator, really) to run MSWindows in and run a recent version of WordPerfect MSWindows version in the virtual machine. QEMU, Xen, and some other VMs exist. -- Joel Rees Be careful when you look at conspiracy.1 Look first in your own heart, and ask yourself if you are not your own worst enemy.

Re: wordperfect 5.1 for unix, and debian?
I still have the fourteen years old CDs of the Corel Linux distribution, which came with WordPerfect. Re-installed it a couple months ago so I could print some old WP for DOS documents I had, which did not format properly in more recent versions, or under LibreOffice. Had to dig out an old Pentium II box, as the install would not work on more recent hardware ;-3( Seems you can still find it for download on the net.

Hi again, I appreciate all You provided in this exchange. Please do not go to over much trouble. as I use wp every single day on my main computer, and only had a desire to find something I might personally do with my Debian box, I will not lose anything if by chance my copy will only run in a Unix structure. I am not bothered paying for what I consider a worth while professional investment, weather financially or in energy. It may be a fun experiment, but not a critical requirement.

Every package that has socket activation is affected. Sorry, my answer was misleading and likely incorrect for this situation. "service" _is_ quite capable of doing the right thing, so if it doesn't stop mpd, the issue is in the mpd package. OTOH, "invoke-rc.d" really is buggy in that regard, so if the issue shows up during package updates/removals, it is invoke-rc.d's fault for not stopping the socket service. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.

Really? You "kill -9"ed the process, it failed to stop and you're blaming systemd? I know systemd is the current whipping-boy but that seems harsh to me. First of all, see why mpd is unresponsive (it may be in the 'D' state, which usually indicates that it's waiting for I/O - if that's the case, the process doesn't even notice the kill signal).

When using a newer Linux kernel, most wifi adapters have a driver. I think you mean non-free firmware. In my opinion non-free firmware in wifi cards is something else. A manufacturer could also use a ROM where they flashed it in, then loading the firmware was not necessary. That code is not running on the main processor.

Problem with AFS token and sudo in Jessie
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Dear all, I'm using Debian jessie with openAFS and Kerberos. I found a strange behaviour that I could not pin down to a single package so far, maybe somebody has any ideas: The AFS token is gone after using sudo, first looking very similar to the (solved) bug #621496 from 2011. After each sudo command, one needs to use "aklog" to get a new AFS token. Yet, I suspect that the bug is different from the 2011 one: First, it not only happens for passwordless sudo, but also when the user is forced to enter the password. Second, I have a PC running with Jessie that does not show this bug - this Jessie wasn't upgraded for some time (around September 2014). Another PC which is up-to-date shows this bug, as well as a new installation I did recently (which is also up-to-date). The config files or our Kerberos/AFS setup did not change since I setup this PC, only the packages were upgraded with apt-get. The problem now is: The version of the libpam-afs-session package is the same in the working and the non-working image. In addition, I selectivly upgraded the openafs-krb5 and the openafs-client as well as openafs-modules-dkms to the most recent version in Jessie (the "starting point" see below). This did not introduce the bug - sudo is still working as intended. Since I'm not too familiar with AFS/Kerberos/PAM I decided to ask you if you have any ideas what I could try to pin down the reason for this? Any packages to upgrade to see if they are responsible for this? If I should provide more details / config files / information, please let me know. I'll see if I find the time to do a test setup with sid to check the newest version of the packages, but maybe my problem is far easier and somebody knows what to do.

jessie: samba/cifs ls rsync unusably slow (lstat)
Dear all, after upgrading to jessie I have a serious problem with a cifs mounted Windows share: Directory listing is extremely slow. ls of a large directory can take several minutes, rsync comparison of directories (lstat call for every file) needs 30+ minutes (with wheezy: 23 seconds). I tried downgrading samba and/or rsync to the wheezy versions but it did not help. Up- and downloads are still as fast as before, it's the same hardware as before. Any ideas what else I could try?
