quick gotcha w/ xfree86 4.2.0 and ati cards

Please review, and reply with comments, additions, etc. I'm hoping to buld out a section of the site for sendmail and all the things can be done with it (the various addressing games, anti-virus interfaces, spam killer interfaces, etc) so all comments (or even better, small write-ups) are welcome.

Please note that we assume you have already installed Procmail. Since early in the 11.x series, Sendmail's milter interface has been greatly improved and enhanced. We are going to build Sendmail with its libmilter feature turned on. We do this because the milter interface is the preferred method of enhancing and extending Sendmail. The milter interface can be used to "hook" anti-spam, anti-virus, and many other features into the Sendmail daemon. If you're interested, please see www.milter.org for the latest developments in milter features. Download the latest source archive from www.sendmail.org and extract it tar zxvf sendmail.8.x.x.tar.gz Create Sendmail's needed directories, and ensure their proper permissions/ownerships mkdir -p /etc/mail /var/spool/mqueue /var/spool/clientmqueue chmod go-w / /etc /etc/mail /usr /var /var/spool Add our new user and group for Sendmail to run as groupadd smmsp useradd -G smmsp smmsp Ensure ownership of needed directories chown root / /etc /etc/mail /usr /var /var/spool /var/spool/mqueue chown smmsp:smmsp /var/spool/clientmqueue chmod 770 /var/spool/clientmqueue chmod 700 /var/spool/mqueue Configure Sendmail to use the libmilter interface cd sendmail-8.x.x vi devtools/Site/site.config.m4 insert the line: APPENDDEF(`conf_sendmail_ENVDEF', `-DMILTER') please note that the above are NOT all single-quotes. they are: backtick,quote,backtick,quote Build and instal libmilter cd libmilter sh Build && sh Build install Build the sendmail daemon cd ../sendmail sh Build && sh Build install you should see '-DMILTER' periodically during the compile Now we need to configure and build the dreaded CF files cd ../cf/cf cp generic-linux.mc config.mc vi config.mc jump down to the line that says 'DOMAIN(generic)dnl' insert the following lines: FEATURE(local_procmail)dnl FEATURE(smrsh,`/usr/sbin/smrsh')dnl FEATURE(nouucp,`reject')dnl This defines procmail as the LDA (local delivery agent) This moves smrsh (Sendmail restricted shell) to a more sensible location This turns off UUCP messaging and generates a 'reject' for anyone who tries to use UUCP sh Build config.cf mv config.cf sendmail.cf && cp sendmail.cf submit.cf /etc/mail The supporting tools are now built and installed cd ../.. sh Build && sh Build install Final configuration cd /etc ln -sf mail/aliases ln -sf mail/sendmail.cf vi sendmail.cf Find HelpFile and change it to: HelpFile= Find PrivacyOptions and change it to: PrivacyOptions=authwarnings,goaway,noreceipts,noexpn,novrfy,noetrn,needmailhelo,restrictmailq,restrictqrun,restrictexpand Find SmtpGreetingMessage and change it to: SmtpGreetingMessage= Find HostStatusDirectory and uncomment it Rebuild your aliases file newaliases Decide if you machine is going to accept incoming mail from other systems, or if it is going to only send outbound mail.

Reviewing the last two month's meeting attendees, no Debian representative was evident. http://www.linuxbase.org/talks/mindex.html - - In a seeming slap at Red Hat, rather than referencing the stable (and referrence) www.rpm.org site for the online text of the Maximum RPM text (which is incorporated in part by reference), they choose a secondaary source 'fan site' without redundancy. - - To offend the Slackware folk, it appears to require SysV initscripts: http://www.linuxbase.org/spec/gLSB/gLSB/initsrcinstrm.html - -- Humorously, the first mentioned secondary source is BSD Lite: http://www.linuxbase.org/spec/gLSB/gLSB/rimplementations.html - -- I am underwhelmed and disappointed ...

The ISO is available for critique at http://fuzzy.morphidian.com. This server is quite slow, if anyone wants to mirror it please feel free :) It's designed to fit on a business card sized CDR, to put in your wallet or whatever, and consequently is limited to 40mb (which I've filled :) I'm quite proud of it (for a first attempt). It has a web browser (lynx) and an IRC client (BitchX). It tries to use DHCP on boot to grab your IP address, but has documentation for setting up your networking settings if that fails manually. It automagically detects your network card through the crappy script /etc/init.d/netdet (which I wrote and others are free to steal :) There are a few issues I have that I intend to fiz before the next release: 1. No PCMCIA support (I didn't know how to do it then :) 2. It's compiled to i686 (damn uname), this will be changed to i386 3. Theres not enough stuff on it. I'll look into the linuxcare BBC to see how they implemented their CD and copy their method. 4. It needs to be 'weeded'. There are quite a few files in there that arent needed, so I'd like to remove everything (like gcc, there are no includes, so this isnt needed :) Any comments you have would be greatly appreciated, however scathing, so I can improve it. If anyone has any questions about how anything is done, please ask me.

Fwd: Full analysis of the .ida "Code Red" worm.
e worm will create a loop that performs 18000h single byte send()'s to www.whitehouse.gov. CODEREF: seg000:0972 WHITEHOUSE_SLEEP_LOOP After 18000h send()'s the worm will sleep for about 4 and a half hours. It will then repeat the attack against www.whitehouse.gov (goto step one of Attack www.whitehouse.gov functionality). Appendix This is associated information about the "Code Red" worm including how to stop the worm, commentary on the worm, and dispelling common misconceptions about this worm. How to secure your system from this .ida "Code Red" worm? - Microsoft patch for this .ida vulnerability http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/security/ bulletin/MS01-033.asp The worm spreads itself to new vulnerable systems via the .ida vulnerability. Applying this patch will keep your server from being infected. However, as stated earlier, because of the way the worm creates its list of "random" IP addresses to attack, you could still be affected by a high traffic overload denial of service. eEye Digital Security Advisory for .ida vulnerability http://www.eeye.com/html/Research/Advisories/AD20010618.html We initially discovered the .ida vulnerability which is being used by this worm as its infection vector. The above advisory details our research of that specific vulnerability. We worked with Microsoft to help them create a patch for the .ida vulnerability. SecureIIS - Application firewall, stops known and unknown IIS vulnerabilities. http://.eeye.com/secureiis We do produce a product that protects IIS web servers from attack which is one of the reasons that we were so quick to research this worm. Funny enough in our initial testing we couldn't get the worm to work because we forgot we had SecureIIS enabled on the lab web server. heh. I have been infected by this worm what can I do? The first thing you must do is goto the Microsoft security site, as referenced above, and install the .ida patch ASAP. The worm will remain in memory until you reboot your server so make sure to reboot after installing the .ida patch. I think I am infected, how can I tell? -- An infected system will show an increase in load (processor/network). It will also show a number of external connections (or attempts) to port 80 of random IP addresses. You can see this by doing a "netstat -an" from a MS-DOS prompt. Either way do not take any chances... if your system is missing the .ida patch then install it ASAP and reboot. How to setup your IDS to detect this specific worm? --- The following is part of the packet data that is sent for this .ida "Code Red" worm attack: GET /default.ida?NNN N%u9090%u6858%ucbd3%u7801%u9090%u6858%ucbd3%u7801%u9090%u6858%ucbd3% u7801%u9090%u9090%u8190%u00c3%u0003%u8b00%u531b%u53ff%u0078%u%u00=a HTTP/1.0 Just add that to your IDS signature database. What are some common misconceptions about the "Code Red" worm? -- 1. It connects to worm.com. This worm only specifies www.worm.com in the initial HTTP GET request HOST: header and in the defaced page show on English (US) systems. This worm does _not_ connect to www.worm.com. This worm operates completely independent and can spread and infect systems without having a single point of failure. What that means is that this worm will be wild on the Internet until there is a _VERY_ high degree of systems that go and install the .ida patch. 2. This worm is based off of hsj's "proof of concept" .ida exploit. This worm is _NOT_ based off of hsj's "proof of concept" .ida exploit. His exploit code had no worm functionality. It was a simple exploit shell that had little to no implicit functionality. It was designed to prove to administrators the seriousness of this vulnerability so that they would install patches ASAP.

It obviously is'nt, i believe it tries to infect everything they find on port 80, or something as simple as that. About three to four days ago, i started to get those default.ida-GET's in my Apache-logs. I shut down the server as fast as i could, and checked for outgoing connections from my computer, and then did some research. I was told that it was an IIS-worm, and that it could'nt affect Apache-servers, so i was safe. I turned the server back on, and from that day i have received forty-one attempts. How can this be? Why am i getting so few attempts, if it is as eEye says -- that every worm-instance has the same seed? I should be getting tons and tons of tries, if the worm has been around for this long. Or is it that my IP is high up in the "sequence", and not many comes that far? If that is the case, the number should be increasing fast in the near future, right?

Two more people have asked me the same question today so I'm going to post the only solution I've found to both places I've seen complaints. I figured out how to get rid of the corruption, at least on my system. Unfortunately it is at the expense of optimizations. A added an option to the XF86Config-4 file to turn off acceleration for the i810 driver and also removed a line from the file that listed my video ram as 16M when it really is only 4M. The relevant section of /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 follows: Section "Device" Identifier "Intel 810" Driver "i810" BoardName "Unknown" # VideoRam 16384 Option "NoAccel" "On" EndSection Hope this helps, the driver obviously needs to be debugged, one or more of the accelerations is doing bad things. > I have got one of these card types and it just keeps getting worse. > Right now I am on the 400x600 res but I don't expect it to last. > > TIA.

help with C/H/S in BIOS,LILO, and kernel
Remember the other day when I lost hde on linux.nf? I had to shrink /dev/hda3 and split it into hda3 and hda4. All was great... Or so I thought. It seems that in doing so, the tranlsations for the disk geometry got messed up somewhere. The drive is a: Maxtor 53073U6, 29311Mb w/2048Kb cache. The BIOS is set for 'auto' and report a CHS of 1024/255/63 I use the latest lilo, and use lba32. The kernel says the drive has a CHS of 3736/255/63 I have to boot lilo with 'hda=1024,255,63' to get the machine to be usable. a cat of /proc/ide/id0/hda says the physical layout is 16383/16/63 The drive is broken into hda[1-4] running 'hdparm /dev/hda' gets 'HDIO_GETGEO_BIG failed: Input/output error' fdisk /dev/hda says 'The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 3736. This could in certain setups cause problems.' cfdisk says 3736 cylinders, 255 head, 63 sectors/track Device Boot Start End #cyls #blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 0+ 12721273- 10225341 83 Linux /dev/hda2 1273+ 1306- 33- 26258482 Linux swap /dev/hda3 1306+ 2677- 1371- 11010216+ 83 Linux /dev/hda4 2677+ 37351059- 8505419+ 83 Linux running parted says: Warning: The operating system thinks the geometry on /dev/hda is 3736/255/63.
