I forget. Since doing that, I realized that for many years I have been running with my own version of /etc/ssh/ssh.config. Confronted with the evidence, I recall that this was a place I found, through exhaustive search, to turn off the hashing of known_host. I like to be able to identify lines in known_host, because I think each line is a possible access path for a hacker and the sysadmin, namely me, should be able to trace the provenance of all such lines. In short hashing them opens a backdoor more serious than the one it closes, IMHO. I now know that I can put my edits in two places, /home/pec/.ssh/ssh_config and /root/.ssh/ssh_config, and have the same effect. If you're happy with not hashing, you need only put that in /etc/ssh/ssh_config (underscore, not dot) if you remove all other .ssh/ssh_config files. I can envision a different way, but I cannot envision one that does not impact of how Debian wants to configure Jessie. So be it. When upgrade runs, you'll need to keep your configuration and then run diff against the maintainer's version (suffixed .dpkg-new or .ucf-dist or some such) to fold in any changes they've made (likely to be few to none). I have not yet discovered a way to append new known host keys from newly configured hosts into the .ssh/known_hosts files on older computers. known_hosts and authorized_keys are both text files. Each line is independent. You can cat x y to append contents of x to y or insert with an editor. An editor's Insert File is safe, but make sure to reconstruct the lines if cut and paste does any line wrapping, ie ssh-rsa jhdgkhkkdjkjnskjn foo@bar needs to be made back into ssh-rsa jhdgkhkkdjkjnskjn foo@bar IIRC any line from one hosts's or user's known_hosts file will work for another user and/or host, and the same with authorized_keys (though don't mix them up!). I think the removed file was the one associated with either pec, or root, which ever was appropriate for a test. Since doing the tests, I have done a complete re-install. With that removing the appropriate known_hosts file gives me the old familiar option of accepting the risk of man-in-the-middle. There's never a problem with wiping out known_hosts and letting it gradually be rebuilt, particularly if you know the fingerprints thusly: $ ssh-keygen -l -v -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key.pub .../ssh-fingerprint As said before, I am working now with a new re-install on my main computer. It is the one on which I am composing this email. This is its /etc/hosts file: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 big.lan.gnu big 192.168.1.1 rtr.lan.gnu rtr # LAN side of router 192.168.1.10 cmn.lan.gnu cmn 192.168.1.11 big.lan.gnu big 192.168.1.12 gq.lan.gnu gq [...] The top two lines were provided during the running of netinst CD RC2. The rest were provided by me, after I took the CD out of the computer and rebooted. Well I have tried to keep things as simple as possible and I recently decided to call exim's bluff... I don't think I have a problem with exim. I use msmtp to get emails out onto the web. I tried doing it with exim4 about 2yrs ago. It kept breaking so I found alternative for a previous stand-alone smtp agent that was being discontinued due to lack of upstream support at about the same time that Debian was moving from plain exim to exim4. I could try again, but after I get ssh working both directions, I hope. Starting MTA:hostname --fqdn did not return a fully qualified name, dc_minimaldns will not work. Please fix your /etc/hosts setup. exim4 ok ...and configure a null domain (ie no dots in /etc/hosts outside of the IP numbers). Everything still works. With this, I can ssh into 'gq' from 'big', which is my main computer with the big flat screen display. I can open and edit files on 'gq' and the edits will be saved. No problem. But, if I sit down the keyboard and screen connected to 'gq', I cannot do the reverse. On 'gq', the /etc/hosts file contains all the lines as on 'big', except for the first two. It should contain the first two lines exactly the same except substitute big→gq. Working on 'gq', I cannot ping ['big']. Can you tell be why, and what I can do to make the ping possible. It would be very educational for me, and maybe all other problems will fall away in my basement. From what you have posted, I would imagine that big has come up as 192.168.1.X where X is not 11. /sbin/ifconfig will tell you the IP number of the machine it's run on. /usr/sbin/arp -n -a run on gq (during

RAID para datos importantes
Hola a todos, Tengo un servidor pequeñito en casa: HP ProLiant MicroServer AMD Turion II N40L Lo utilizo para albergar un par de sitios webs, descargas y almacenar datos. Evidentemente lo tengo con Debian (Wheezy). Para el sistema tengo un disco de 250GB, despues tengo 2 discos de 1TB y 1 disco de 2TB. Mi intencion es dejar el disco de sistema de 250GB tal cual. Despues crear un RAID1 con los dos discos de 1TB para albergar datos importantes (fotos, ficheros personales...). Y por ultimo dejar el de 2TB para albergar datos no tan importamtes como peliculas o backups del sistema. Lo que me interesa es asegurar los datos sensibles a fallos de hardware, y si algun disco falla que me avise por mail. Entiendo que despues es tan sencillo como reemplazar el disco dañado por uno nuevo y listo. He estado leyendo un poco sobre mdadm en Debian y tengo varias dudas: 1. ¿Los discos los tengo que formatear con algun sistema de ficheros en cocncreto? ¿O simplemente creo el raid con los discos sin formatear? 2. ¿Como hago para que me avise si algo va mal? 3. Tengo opcion a reemplazar el disco de 2TB por uno de 1TB y crear un RAID5 con los 3 discos de 1TB, ¿me lo recomendais?

He estado leyendo un poco sobre mdadm en Debian y tengo varias dudas: 1. ¿Los discos los tengo que formatear con algun sistema de ficheros en cocncreto? ¿O simplemente creo el raid con los discos sin formatear? No, cuando crees el RAID con los dos discos tendrás a tu disposición un dispositivo de bloques (/dev/md0, posiblemente), que funciona exactamente igual que un dispositivo que representa un disco real. O sea que que puedes formatearlo exactamente igual que si se tratara de un disco. 2. ¿Como hago para que me avise si algo va mal? Nada de particular. En la configuración (/etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf) hay una directiva (MAILADDR) que indica que a qué cuenta de correo quieres que te envíe los avisos de las incidencias. Creo que su valor predeterminado es root. Así que todo se limita a que el servidor de correo sea capaz de enviar ese correo al destino que le indiques. Si ese destino es local o de la red local, no hay mucho problema. 3. Tengo opcion a reemplazar el disco de 2TB por uno de 1TB y crear un RAID5 con los 3 discos de 1TB, ¿me lo recomendais? No sé depende de qué es lo que quieras. Si lo haces tendrás 2TB en el RAID y 1TB para las películas y demás. Si no lo haces, la situación será al revés. Es la primera vez que configura un RAID por software y la verdad que me da un poco de respeto, ya que los daots que voy a guardar son importantes. Agradezco cualquier ayuda. Los datos los vas a tener que sacar a otro sitio antes (al disco de 2TB, por ejemplo) para luego montar el RAID. Así que no veo cuál es el problema, si en el proceso tendrás los datos copiados en otro sitio. Por cierto, si son realmente importantes, un RAID no sustituye a un backup almacenado físicamente en otro sitio: siempre puede producirse un percance que te escacharre a la vez los dos disco. -- Harto sabe, si me sabe bien. --- Francisco de Quevedo --- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-spanish-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Pegar pacotes por aí não resolverá o problema, pois as chances do codeblock não reconhecer que a dependencia está instalada porque tem um - (traço) no nome em vez de _ (underline) são maiores do que qualquer coisa. Além disso, vc pode danificar outros pacotes e até inviabilizar sua distro. Pegue esta linha como exemplo: codeblocks : Depende: libwxbase2.8-0 (= 2.8.12.1) mas 2.8.10.1-3+b1 está para ser instalado Aí fala que o pacote solicitado tem de ser maior o igual a versão 2.8.12, mas apenas a versão 2.8.10, portanto uma versão menor, está disponível para a instalação. Portanto a ação a ser tomada é pegar os fontes da versão 2.8.12 ou maior, que pode ser no próprio repositório source de sua distro já preparado para ser compilado e empacotado, e editar o debian/rules para ajustar aos valores de sua distro, e gerar seu próprio pacote do libwxbase2.8-0. Desde que a versão dos pacotes necessários para compilar o libwxbase na versão mais nova estejam disponíveis na sua distro, é um trabalho relativamente simples e rápido. Tem muito tutorial de como fazer isso por aí, o mais prático é o guia de pacotes debian escrito pelo Kov. Mas genericamente é o seguinte: apt-get build-dep libwxbase (baixa toda a tralha necessária para compilar) pegar os fontes da versão maior que 2.8.12 e compilar criando o pacote deb. Ainda existe um truque: adicionar uma linha de repositório Debian de uma versão superior com apenas os repositórios fontes no seu source.lists, depois executar: apt-get source -b libwxbase (baixa o fonte do pacote, compila e constrói o pacote deb pra vc) PS: se o pacote codeblocks está plenamente funcional sem o pacote libwxbase2.8-0 apontado como dependência, você pode fazer uma gambiarra e criar um pacote vazio com esse nome e instalar para enganar o sistema de dependencias.

Thats correct. Gparted is so much easier to use, and can be made to do it your way, that in comparison, no comparison between the actual usabilities of the two is possible. Well there's good news for when you next do battle with the installer (two weeks must be up around now). Rather than videoing what you do, you can now easily capture the installation screens, and the log output from the installer, and even the partitioner (though that's extremely verbose). In expert install, if you select network-console in the Installer Components screen, you can ssh from another box immediately after configuring the network.

I have the following alias defined: alias sshnv='ssh -o GlobalKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null' (Just one line, but my mail client wants to wrap.) This allows me to do sshnv user@host, but the temporary key will not be remembered (I still have to accept it though). Perfect, thanks. I now have installer-on which runs ssh -o GlobalKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null installer@$1 for my particular case of running the installer. This is also useful if I don't want to remember the key even if it's not already in the known_hosts file. - Host will permanently have a new key. ssh-keygen -R hostname This will remove all keys for a given host from the known_hosts file, and then a new key can be accepted for that host, which will be stored permanently.

LibreOffice 64 bit suddenly wont save.
Has anyone else had the problem that LibreOffice 64 suddenly refuses to save files. If I pull up an old file and change it and save everything seems to be OK. But when I try to open the file again the restore corrupted file screen pops up. When I go through that routine the file opens with none of the new changes show. If I create a new file and use save as, LibreOffice closes and the file is not saved. I reinstalled the office suit, the base and the core programs. This didn't help.

Grub can read partition tables, UUIDs, LABELs and filesystems. To a certain extent, but grub still hardcodes partitions by number into its bootloader, hence Rodolfo's need to rescue. Again, presumably this wouldn't be a problem if UUIDs/labels were used. I know it *can*, but I was under the impression that most people nowadays would have their core.img at sector 1 and so unaffected by swapping the numbers on partitions 6 and 7.

I'd like to know how to query each box and get the MAC address that it is actually using. I think we need that to go beyond pure theory and get to real practice. But how? Specific advice needed, please. The field HWaddr in the ifconfig output above gives you the MAC address for that interface. How are you making sure that your router uses the IP numbers that are in your hosts file? If I have been told how to make sure of this, I am too dense to realize it. Please, what tool or utility helps accomplish this? I await your reply anxiously ;-) On your router, depending on make and model, there is usually a page in the web interface where you can map MAC addresses to IP addresses, if the router assigns those via DHCP. I am trying to setup DHCP assignment, but it doesn't seem to be working. Mostly the more things I try, the less things show up in the list of attached devices. I hope I can recover from this experiment. Sorry for butting in on your discussion like this, but I was up early :) Thanks, Petter. No need to be sorry. But this router only displays the information that it has observed. It offers no edit facility that I can find. We now know that there is a disagreement on the IPv4 address of 'big', but the router didn't cause the disagreement and is unwilling to help in fixing it. There is a 'refresh' button which is intended for use after one thinks the problem is fixed.
