[e-smith-devinfo] Virus Attack - sircam

2001-07-26 Thread Richard Ford

G'Day All,

All it took was a user to plug in an old PC and check mail - bingo Sircam
virus worm.

Check out Symantec.com.

Very nasty.

Anyway the file it chose to send was 700K.  I now have a flooded 64K isdn
connection.  As mail is returned - sent to old email address and what not.

Is there a way to setup the e-smith box to not accept any mail with a
particular attachment or style?  As the infected PC was left to send emails
for a few days - that is a lot!  And now a fair few are coming back as
bounces.

I can set e-smith to bounce all unknown email.  However if you have read the
Symantec page.. this virus has taken on an identity of some random
person in the host computers email list to pretend to be the sender.  It
just so happens that this email address was for this organization - so we
are getting mail sent back to that address.

How can I stop this.  As the load is so high I can't even ping the box, but
telstra can.  Turning the mail server off gave me a full clear ping back to
the ISDN router.

Now the link is flooded from incoming mail - how do I stem it or
control it?  The mail server is not infected as the worm only works on
w98/dos machines.

I now have a client offline.  :(  All my hard work and one old PC stuffed it
all up!  :-|

I guess I need a way to bounce all mail to this particular user for a few
hours or days.  As if the user never existed.  And I do not want to copy his
home directory and delete him and recreate him as there are too many aliases
and group permissions to worry about.

Is there a .bounce file?  Or some place I can add a user to bounce all mail.
So that in the handshake stage before the 700k attachment is sent the
message is bounced?

Cheers,

Richard Ford.

Darrell,

I don't know if you want to put a note in the how-to or not, but in step one, if
the reader has followed your other how-to on changing mail folder locations,
their root location for mail folders created by the user will be in the ~user
directory itself.

 msn...but are you

The IPChains will only allow the packets through but NAT will still mangle
the connection. If you absolutely need this feature you may want to look at
portforwarding the ports to the internal workstation but this has some
complications that need to be considered first.

RE: [e-smith-devinfo] msn messenger ipmasq rpm

2001-07-26 Thread Trevor Ouellette

Hi Timothee,

No I'm not sure that it will solve your file uploading/downloading probs,
but if you only have one client on your network that uses it, then you can
just port forward.

As you and Justin mentioned, it is a NAT problem.  So until a module is
found, only one computer inside your network will be able to up/download
files.

Rather than open ports to a workstation, can your security plan allow FTP to

storage, several options are at:

[e-smith-devinfo] Backup/restore

2001-07-26 Thread Dan Brown

This is a thought that's been running around in my head for a while, but
I've not gotten around to suggesting before.  Now that e-smith supports tape
backup of the whole system, it seems that it should be feasible to have a single
floppy (or at most, two) that would boot, optionally partition and format the
hard drive for e-smith, and then run a complete tape restore.  Since it was a
complete backup, this should restore everything (including all the
configuration, as well as any customizations done on the server).

I'd think all that would be needed would be the kernel, fdisk, mke2fs,
buffer, dump, and flexbackup--am I missing anything?

Sounds like you've done quite a lot.  I'm not a perl wizard at all but 
I'll offer to take a look.  Forward me your scripts and any docs and I'll 
try to follow along and assist.

My simple first thought for testing would be to create a webpage, place 
it in the ibay to capture the user input to a /tmp/squidgaurd-update 
file.  Then have your scripts read in the file and process the variables.

If this works then incorporate everything into the e-smith-manager by 
borrowing and editing some existing scripts.

Re: [e-smith-devinfo] squidguard returns

2001-07-26 Thread Tim Litwiller

make another perl file called loader ( for this example ) that
takes
the script name the domain and the switch as variables and then 
check that script name is valid before running the domain and the
switch
thru it.

this will keep users from being able to attempt to run other
executables.

in this loader you can also put html return calls to indicate
success or failure
and then call back to the original form.

or generate an entire page in the loader with the success or
failure notice and
a link to add another.

form name=squid-guard method=post
action=/cgi-bin/loader?script=$scriptdomain=formelement1switch=$switch
  table width=75% border=0
  trtd colspan=2 
Choose list to modifyhr
 table width=100% border=1
   tr
 td
   input type=radio name=script value=trusted-d
   trusted-d/td

 I've done a lot of work today on squidguard... but I still need to implement
 it into the manager.
 
 It automatically downloads the latest public blacklists and installs them
 weekly.
 
 I've written 6 scripts: trusted-d, trusted-e, trusted-u, untrusted-d,
 untrusted-e, and untrusted-u for updating the user-database in squidguard.
 It works perfectly.
 
 The scripts work like this:
 
 If I'm adding a pornographic domain (xxx.com) to my database, I simply
 enter:
 
 # ./untrusted-d xxx.com
 
 And it's added.  I can remove them as well:
 
 # ./untrusted-d xxx.com r
 
 It's very simple.  I would like to display forms on a webpage (ibay) that
 the administrator can enter the xxx.com in the box and hit submit.  Then
 PHP or perl passes those arguments $1 and $2 to my 6 scripts.
 
 Any ideas?  Any perl wizards out there?  I can give you full details and a
 copy of the scripts if you are not sure.
 
 Trev.
