[ilugd] Dell stops shipping Windows on all its computers

2004-07-12 Thread Vikram Sachdeva

Dell stops shipping Windows on all its computers

http://www.newsforge.com/articles/04/07/07/1848210.shtml?tid=149

After being berated by Microsoft for attempting to
sell Linux on some of the company's desktop systems,
Dell has decided to stop selling Windows altogether.
CEO Michael Dell said, in a fictional conference call
with reporters, Microsoft is in no position to push
us around. By selling Linux, we will save each
customer nearly $200 per computer. If Microsoft would
like to continue selling Windows through Dell, it will
need to ask very nicely and accept that we have the
right to sell other operating systems. 


 
Mr. Dell says Dell is going further and will be
switching all its internal computers to Linux with a
deadline of November 1st, 2004. We realise this is a
very ambitious goal, but the internal license cost
savings alone will allow me to buy a new Ferrari every
month. 

Microsoft has reacted angrily to the news. Steve
Ballmer is in the hospital recovering from choking on
his breakfast after receiving the news, but a
spokesperson says that Microsoft is not impressed
with Dell's actions and will be taking
anti-competitive action to ensure that the hardware
company changes its mind. 

A vehicle with Washington state plates BILL was seen
entering the Round Rock, Texas based head office of
Dell corp. just before press time escorted by several
large SUVs. It is not known at this time what is being
negotiated. 

HP-Compaq, the world's #2 seller of desktop computers
- behind Dell - is expected to follow Dell's lead on
Monday and cease selling any Windows operating systems
on their desktop computers. 

Gateway, however, says their computers will remain
unequivocally Windows-only. The desktop manufacturer
believes the extra expense of Windows is valuable to
consumers. Gateway spokesman William Bradley said of
Dell's move, I'm glad to hear Dell will be selling
less expensive computers without the Microsoft tax --
we'll finally be able to upgrade the computers around
the office. 

Italian distributor Questar, which managed to send
Dell down its course toward the abandonment of
Windows, says that Dell has made the right decision
in moving away from Microsoft, and that it hopes Dell
is not doing it to get a better deal from the Redmond,
WA-based software giant.

My Dear Amit ,

Please  check what the nslookup command  states :

 ** server can't find pcq: NXDOMAIN
 this means pcq can't be resolved by your name server ( DNS)  100.0.0.1

if you have any confusion check the concept of DNS server  and Name
Resolution fundamentals.

Clue: First of all check whether your server pcq is reachable from host from
where you are trying telnet .

ping   ip of pcq

 ping works fine.

 also nslookup thing i guess is not a prob as my other server that is
running
 sendmail is also not accessbale thru nslookup command but still i am able
to
 telnet its port 25. so DNS is not a issue.

Re: [ilugd] j2ee problem

2004-07-12 Thread abhi


 hi all,

 i had installed j2eesdk1.4
 during installation it asked for the directory where
 to install. i typed /usr/local/java.
 everything went fine install was successful, but when
 i had opened /usr /local ther was no
 java folder.
 i checked the installed log which is at /var/tmp it
 says following thing :

 Installing Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition 1.4.2

 Installed:/tmp/j2eeskICpS6/usr/local/java/jdk/bin
 Installed:/tmp/j2eeskICpS6/usr/local/java/jdk/bin/java

 Installed:/tmp/j2eeskICpS6/usr/local/java/jdk/bin/javac

 i thought something went wrong during installation
 i again started installing it , again it prompts for
 the directory where to install
 when i browse i saw j2eeskICpS6 directory in /tmp


Why not do the obvious and simply cd to /tmp/j2eeskICpS6/usr/local/ and move
java directory to /usr/local ?

Regards,
Abhi

[ilugd] Wireless Internet Access

I have to provide temporary Internet access to a location and dragging 
wires is not an option. Both Tata Indicom and Reliance claim to have really 
good Internet access through their wireless phones. I was wondering if 
anyone has tried both so i can get a comparative idea.
I just got a Tata Indicom fixed wireless phone and it has a serial cable , 
no usb available. I havent tried connecting through that yet, my laptop 
doesnt have a serial port ;) . The reliance web world also said their 
phones can get the serial cable but again no USB, USB cables are for the 
handheld phones only. Would a Serial-USB convertor work ?

Secondly what is the status of the Linux compatibility ? They both have 
their respective CDs with dialers, can we not skip those ?

Is that your ISP's mail server or your own?

If it is your own mailserver, do you have DNS running for the machines in your 
internal lan which send mails through this mail server?

Do you have host lookups turned on for your mail server?

[ilugd] Linux Delhi July meet

2004-07-12 Thread Raj Shekhar
Hello all
With a heavy heart I regret to inform you all that the much hyped up 
Girls in Linux which was to be organized by LL has been canceled. 
Since we could not allow the geeks to sit idle on the 3rd Sunday of the 
month (18th July), it was decided after painful research (there was not 
much research, but it was painful) that we will have an Open Forum in 
this meet.

In the Open Forum, anyone can ask a question and anyone can provide an 
answer. For example, you can ask questions on Playfair, Copyleft,  CD 
distributions, Open Office, tricky software installs, networking and 
security.  This is a good opportunity for the newbies to get suggestions 
from the members. It would be better if you can post your questions on 
the list beforehand and the discussion can continue in real life.

If you would like to give a presentation in this meet, then do put in an 
 email giving the topic of your talk.

Also, we would need a venue for the meet. The venue should at the 
minimum provide seating capacity for about 30-35 and a Linux workstation 
with OpenOffice.

Any suggestions ?

phones can get the serial cable but again no USB, USB cables are for the 
handheld phones only. Would a Serial-USB convertor work ?

Secondly what is the status of the Linux compatibility ? They both have 
their respective CDs with dialers, can we not skip those ?

Bugzilla Security Advisory
July 10, 2004

Summary
===

Bugzilla is a Web-based bug-tracking system, used by a large number of
software projects.

This advisory covers security bugs that have recently been discovered
and fixed in the Bugzilla code: In the stable 2.16 releases, one instance
of arbitrary SQL injection exploitable only by a privileged user, several
instances of insufficient data validation and/or escaping, and two
instances of unprivileged access to names of restricted products. We know
of no occasion where any of these vulnerabilities have been exploited.

All Bugzilla installations are advised to upgrade to the latest stable
version of Bugzilla, 2.16.6, which was released today.

Development snapshots prior to version 2.18rc1 are also affected, so if
you are using a development snapshot, you should obtain a newer one
(2.18rc1) or use CVS to update.


Vulnerability Details
=

Issue 1
- ---
Class:   Database Password Compromise
Versions:2.17.1 through 2.17.7 (2.16-based releases are not affected)
Description: If the SQL server is halted but the webserver is left running,
~ older versions of DBI display an error message to the remote
~ user which contains the database password. While a properly-
~ configured database would still only be accessible by a local
~ user using that password, all installations are advised to
~ change the password after upgrading.
Reference:   http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=227191

Issue 2
- ---
Class:   Privilege escalation
Versions:2.17.1 through 2.17.7 (2.16-based releases are not affected)
Description: A user with privileges to grant membership to one or more
~ individual groups (i.e. usually an administrator) can
~ trick the administrative controls into granting membership
~ in groups other than the ones he has privileges for.
Reference:   http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=233486

Issue 3
- ---
Class:   Information Leak
Versions:All versions prior to 2.16.6 and 2.18rc1
Description: If Bugzilla is configured to hide entire products from some
~ users, both duplicates.cgi and the form for mass-editing a
~ list of bugs in buglist.cgi can disclose the names of those
~ hidden products to such users.
References:  http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=234825
~ http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=234855

Issue 4
- ---
Class:   Cross-site scripting vulnerability
Versions:All versions prior to 2.16.6 and 2.18rc1
Description: Several administration CGIs echo invalid data back to the
~ user without escaping it.
Reference:   http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=235265

Issue 5
- ---
Class:   User Password embedded in URL
Versions:2.17.5 through 2.17.7 (2.16-based releases are not affected)
Description: The user's password can be embedded as part of an image URL,
~ and thus visible in the web server logs, if the user is
~ prompted to log in while attempting to view a chart.
Reference:   http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=235510

Issue 6
- ---
Class:   Remote SQL injection vulnerability
Versions:All versions prior to 2.16.6 and 2.18rc1
Description: A user with privileges to grant membership to any group
~ (i.e. usually an administrator) can trick editusers.cgi
~ into executing arbitrary SQL.
Reference:   http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=244272
