I'm running Beowulf with Monit and fail2ban and they both work.
They /are/ both in the Devuan repositories, and don't depend on
systemd, so shouldn't be any different from Debian.
I am using fail2ban with nftables, not iptables, though it can be
configured to work with either.

And I am using the backported version of Monit (1.5.27) as the https
interface in 1.5.26 doesn't report bytes written or read.

I don't have logwatch.

Re: [DNG] monit logwatch fail2ban

Hello Erich,

I don't think either logwatch nor fail2ban is being forked by the folks
at debian. As such, you are using the debian packages. There may be
functionalities depending on systemd, but that's for you to discover.

In any case, what *exactly* is not part of devuan? Please provide a
link to debian's source and/or packages and how it differ from devuan.
It may simply be an oversight or an issue with the backend, but without
details we can't do anything but guess.

In short, please refer to this small bullet list (this is a document I
often read, as it is quite useful):

Best Regards,
Ludovic

[DNG] monit logwatch fail2ban

2021-01-22 Thread Erich Minderlein via Dng

Hi

I have migrated a small home server from debian buster to devuan beowulf.
It was a new install, but I compared/copied /etc and copied the server /var/www
It was rather flawless.
However before the package monit was used as intermediate function beween 
fail2ban and logwatch.
This is not part of the devuan packages.
Now I miss the section fail2ban in the logwatch daily mail

Is there an adapted solution to this ?

[DNG] AppArmor and TorBrowser

2021-01-22 Thread Haines Brown
At some point my TorBrowser wouldn't start. When I try it 
displays error windows: 

  Tor unexpectedly exited. This might be due to a bug in Tor itself, 
  another program in your system, or faulty hardware. ...

  Tor exited during startup. This might be due to a bug in your torrc
  file or another program on your system, for faulty hardware. ...

I look at the torrc file and it looks like nothing but a set of 
harmless links.

My messages log tells me that AppArmor status for torBrowser is 
apparmor="DENIED". "denied_mask="r""

So I do  # apparmor-status and find six processes are in enforce mode, 
including:

  /home/haines/.local/share/torbrowser/tbb/x86_64/ \
  tor-browser_en-US/Browser/firefox.real
  (8708) torbrowser_firefox

I do 

  $ ps aux | grep  8708
  haines8708  0.1  0.9 2517308 156740 pts/11 Sl   07:53   0:03
  ./firefox.real --class Tor Browser -profile
  TorBrowser/Data/Browser/profile.default 

Killing process does not get me torBrowser back.

I gather I could edit the profile in /etc/apparmor.d  directly. There 
are two profiles there  torbrowser.Tor.tor and 
torbrowser.Browser.firefox. I didn't know which to edit, and there was 
nothing obvious I should do to edit in them.

Instead I simply removed and reinstalled the two profiles with:
 
  # apparmor_parser -R /etc/apparmor.d/ 
  # apparmor_parser -a /etc/apparmor.d/ 

That did not help, so I simply removed them. Then I'm supposed to 
inform the kern of this with:

  # echo -n “torbrowser.Browser.firefox” > 
  /sys/kernel/security/apparmor/.remove

Byt get: 

   -bash: echo: write error: No such file or directory

This is becasue my /sys/kernel/security/apparmor/ directory holds no 
.remove file.

I still can't start torbrowser.

I don't want to breask things by going any further such as creating a 
.remove file and adding  the two lines to it:  

  torbrowser.Browser.firefox
  torBrowser.Tor.tor

Replying to my own post.  This is a reproducible problem/workaround
that has affected several packages in some of my various beowulf
deployments; these have included

initramfs-tools
initramfs-tools-core
htcondor
nginx-full
printer-driver-cups-pdf

I am posting this for information: there is clearly something about the
preinst/prerm/postinst/postrm script(s) that is causing problems during
dpkg operation.  The workaround is the same in each case: rename the
offending script and run dpkg again.

I recognise that this family of scripts are very similar, but lacking
the skills to pinpoint the problem, the best I can offer is to hand the
observation over to the list for any interested parties who would like
to take a look.

Best

fraser
