Re: [ilugd] Need advice on setup of computers for a rural school

[Alok Sinha]

Raspberry pi - can be purchased off Amazon.com

However, while you do that - AND I KNOW THIS IS NOT ANDROID forums - you
may want to try, Android PC - $50-$80 with Wifi, HDMI (or vga) output, usb
port... this takes about 4W power. and has 1.5Ghz dual core CPU + MALI GPU.

I have heard, people have ported linux on this - ubuntu, bu the android
works pretty much off the shelf.

You can buy this off, Dealextreme (dx.com) or ebay.in.

This IMHO would be your best/closest bet.

RE: [ilugd] Suggestion needed for settingup network

[Alok Sinha]

Amit,

I did not mean the solution part outside the list, i only meant his contact
details.

As far as scanning the content before reaching the PC goes, one would like
to understand in bit more depth as to what Puneet has in mind - however,
given the other environment considerations, one would assume that he needs
to have content filtering in
a. Web download (dansguardian)
b. Mail download (clamd)
c. General irrelevant traffic stoppage. (firewall - shorewall)
d. If he would like to dig deeper, he may want to have a look at the
traffic and what kind of packets are going around. (ntop)
e. In order to protect his network from intruding eyes, he may want to go
for a networl intrusion detection system - which will scan his network
(conditions apply) and give reports on type of attempts (snort)
f. For unwanted mail, he would need anti-spam (spamassassin)
g. For simple access to the net he could use caching proxy along with
appropriate access control mechanisms (squid + squidguard)
h. For his own users, he may want to set up pop3, web, imap, wap frontend
(cyrus, uw-imap) etc.
i. He may want to setup an inbound filter for filtering unwanted messages
(procmail and/or spamassassin)

My point is and was, there are umpteen solutions in the linux space, and one
would need to understnad the exact requirement, propose a suitable solution
and see how the integrated solution is supported and worked upon.

Trust the above clarifies your thoughts/queries.

Subject: [ilugd] Suggestion needed for settingup network


Hi all,

Due to current virus problems, I am planning to setup a network at my place
where this effect can be minimized. planning to put some sort of proxy. any
idea how to set something like this. I have 20 systems (all windows 2k and
XP), 1 Dlink 24 port switch and a DSL router.

my goals are:

1. All the internet traffic should be scanned before it comes to pc.
2. Some sites should be blocked.
3. A good antivirus is needed to scan all the traffic
(can you suggest one! my budget stands to be 2/- with licenses)

In general it should be a small business solution, where we have some
restrictions.

apart from this i am also looking for some sort of free mail server
solution, where i don't need send my internal mails via external internet
and can be sent
and received to respective PCs within my internal network. Probably as a
commertial alternative Microsoft exchange does this job, but is there any
alternative available as freeware? Probably some linux solution can make
this possible.

please share your views, what can be done in the above case.

regards,
Puneet

Re: [ilugd] Fedora Core & External modem

[Alok Sinha]

Or try
wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf
This should recognise the modem and make changes as well.

External modems (Std AT compatible) should not be a problem for any OS, 
since they work without the need of the driver.

You can test the modem first, by using a software called minicom and 
ensuring that the modem responds to AT as OK.

Which program you are using to "start" modem?
wvdial should be the easiest option. Just give appropriate

Caution...I really have not looked at Fedora from this angle as I do not

Re: [ilugd] Firewall implimentation

[Alok Sinha]

The best form of iptables implementation (IMHO) is through shorewall.

Shorewall provides an abstract layer for IPTABLES, gives a professional 
look and feel.

Moreover configuring shorewall is real simple when you use the webmin 
module of shorewall.

You will get started with few minutes, without having to even know one 
line of iptables.

Hi Dheerendar,

  How are you doing??
For configuring a firewall in Linux Machine, "iptables" is the best
option. Iptables restrict the flow of incoming and outgoing packets on
the base of policies you make. The policies are considered from top to
bottom.
For making policies using iptables, man iptables is the best resource
but you can also refer to http://www.faqs.org/docs/iptables/
Please don't forget to issue iptables-save command in the end and
restarting the iptables daemon.
Do let me know if you face any problem in doing that.

They are charging you for the benefits that they feel they bring you,

From the point of view of the customers business, the money that they

linux.i can have good knowledge of  'C' and 'C++' and from last six months i
am working on 'school anagement project' ('A' level project) which is on Qt
toolkit and MySql. due to fresher i am not getting any call from any company
or placement. many of my friends are saying that there is no job for C & C++
at this level('A' level) and you are wasting your time in linux. all work of
development in linux are done only by highly qualified professionals. your
have just one option just move to .NET.
is it so, i want to know at this level have i any chances of job, i can not
do any advance course in linux (due to financial reason), or i switch to
windows.
thanks
ramesh chandra.

Re: [ilugd] ftp problem

[Alok Sinha]

Omi'gosh  why would you want root to do ftp ?

Anyways, if you want to really *OPEN* your system doors

you should remove the entry of root from /etc/ftpusers file

All the best ...!!

Re: [ilugd] Mentor Required

[Alok Sinha]

For UML - you can download adios - a live cd distribution which allows 
you to run multiple linuxes at the same time - *without* installing on 
your hard disk.
Adios is real cool for just being the live linux. try out the UML, which 
is the icing on the cake - works without efforts, with almost no 
configuration requirements.

You can use UML (User Mode Linux) for creating multiple virtual Linux
hosts within a single machine for testing purposes.  It's also a neat
way of having privilege separation between multiple users -- give each
an independent Linux machine.

Re: [ilugd] Mentor Required

1. You are right - vmware is not freeware, but your 30 day version would 
do good for your testing.
2. P 233, with 128 MBRAM is going to be challenging to run multi-os - 
but vmware is most ideally suited for this. (With 128 MBRAM,  make sure 
that you do not run X stuff in it.)

Re: [ilugd] Can't access internet through proxy server

[Alok Sinha]

You need to be more explicit about the error you are getting... but in 
the cases that you have recommended

The most likely scenarios are
1. The proxy server is doing a IP (or MAC) based authentication. But 
then you should be getting an ACCESS DENIED PAGE.
2. The proxy could be using transparent caching.. but  based on IP Access.
3.  Check by telnetting into the proxy server port 3128  and type
get www.google.com http/1.1

if you get no output, you will know you are not reaching proxy, else you 
should get some response from the proxy... which would tell you what is 
not correct.

I exported http_proxy=http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:3128/ and other vars but 
I guess the system is not being able to authenticate at all. I can

Maybe the browsers use NTLM

Re: [ilugd] Disk Cloning

You could also try a simple

cat /dev/(your disk device) > /tmp/some_file_name.img
(make sure, you disk device is unmounted)

This creates a file some_file_name.img file in /tmp which is an image of the
disk.

Then carry this file to another destination, copy this file on top of any other
disk

cat /tmp/some_file_name.img > /dev/(Your new disk device)

Re: [ilugd] Jabber Chat Logging

There is no simple way to do this. For conf logging, there is a patch
available, which will do this. (check www.jabber.org).

For user to user logging at the server level, it is difficult. I have used a
simple network sniffer working on that port and piped it to a file.

There is a java client available for Jabber, which runs in the browser itself
for which you will not require to download any software at client side.

You do not require to have a real ip address from the cable ISP - u can do this
even on dynamic IP - provided, you have _A_ server on the internet, with atleast
one port.

Re: [ilugd] delete files log

[Alok Sinha]

If the file deleted is not a user data file and is an application
related file, the same can be found out by verifying the rpm package.

If you give the following command

[nb config]# rpm --verify bind
S.5. c /etc/rndc.key
missing  d /usr/share/doc/bind-9.2.1/rfc/rfc3110.txt.gz

_ the above command shows, that the file
/usr/share/doc/bind-9.2.1/rfc/rfc3110.txt.gz is missing.

If you need to know all the files missing in your system
[nb config]#  for i in `rpm -qa` ; do echo $i; rpm --verify $i; done
The above will list all the files that are missing, modified or changed
on your system, since they were installed on you system.

The above command will not work for the applications installed by
compiling directly on the system. (non-rpm based installations)

alok sinha

Re: [ilugd] Chat Software for my linux server

[Alok Sinha]

Jabber server is just great - alternatively - u cud use irc servers and a
web based front-end.

However, be careful, jabber (or any other chat server ) requires specific
port to be opened on firewall

Re: [ilugd] Client Machine's IP in PHP

[Alok Sinha]

Ritesh,

This one liner code in php will give the ip address


But be careful, the returned ip address may be either that of the remote
client or of the proxy through which it is available. Perhaps you are
using the server as the proxy and hence this value.

If you want to see more information,


This will list out all tonnes of information about your php.
All the items under the Apache section are accessible as variables - as
used in the above example.

Re: [ilugd] upgrading kernel and installing security patches

[Alok Sinha]

Puneet,

A short cut to upgrade linux kernel would be to simply go to RH site and download the 
laest kernel rpm. The command is as simple as installing any other rpm. I beleive 
there are three kernel releases for rh 9.0.

However, before you do that, you need to know why are you upgrading . and upgrade only 
if it is required.

regards,
alok sinha

Re: [ilugd] NAT & DNS on 7.2 ?

[Alok Sinha]

Shailesh,

Try this.

1. Take two ethernet cards (though u can do with one also, but for
security purposes)

2. Put on eth0 your local network - lets say 192.168.1.* lets say -
192.168.1.1 (rest of your windoze cud be on 192.168.1.*)

3. Put on your eth1 for isp. Now if the isp gives permanent ip address,
great, configure your eth1 for the same, if not, configure your eth1 to
pick address dynamically.
route add gw  eth1

   3.a. If your eth1 is dynamic, then you will need to execute a script
that automatically runs the route add command everytime it is brought up



4. to run name server, simply install bind, bindutils, caching-name
server rpms (i would strongly recommend to upgrade to rh 9.0 since the
original 7.2 has security punctured bind).

5. I assume you will need to run proxy
  Install all rpms of squid on the server.For access control use
squidguard.

6.In addition to this, if you would want internal systems to connect
directly to the net, using your linux box as gw.
   6.a - to all machines on your lan make add the gateway as 192.168.1.1
(ip of yr linux box)
   6.b - in all your machines on your lan, make the dns as 192.168.1.1
(ip of yr linux box)
   6.c A simple and correct method would be to run the linux box as dhcp
server (on eth0) and boot all windoze from this - so that the above
config is not required on client side.
  6.d. execute
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward  (this will allow your
linux box to masq)
  6.e. Now you need to add rules so that your internal users can go
outside ( i am assuming u r going to use ipchains in 7.2)
ipchains -F (flush)
ipchains -X (remove rules)
ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 -d 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 -j
MASQ  (Allow all source 192.168.1.0 to talk to any outside
0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0)
You can ofcourse add more filters as you go along.

Thats it - you are on.

7. If you need people from outside to come into your network (gosh! cant
be dumber than this) u will need to add rules in reverse direction.

8. Use webmin, to configure above, it will make your life so much more
simpler.
