[luau] Help needed with kernel patching
hey folks, It's been a few years since i did this, so any help you can provide is greatly appreciated. I need to patch a kernel from 2.4.9-31 to 2.4.12 and then apply another patch to enable PPTP masquerading - http://www.impsec.org/linux/masquerade/netfilter_pptp_2_4_12.patch.gz It's my understanding that kernel patches must be made incrementally i.e., apply 2.4.10 before applying 2.4.11, but on the kernel.org site (http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/), the 2.4.11 patch series is labeled as patch-2.4.11-dontuse.gz h Aloha, Ho'ala - Free webmail with a statement!

Re: [luau] Firewall question..
Sorry if this message dupes, I used the wrong from address the first time and the listserver held it. I was hoping that you'd reply I do not like ipfwadm either. Maybe its time to look for an alternative to FreeSco like you suggested. I did kludge something together to work for the time being. I had to use ipfwadm on each different destination computer that gets a port forwarded to it and define the access rules there. Not an easy way to manage the rules but it will work until I get a different router solution running. Thanks for the input.

Re: [luau] My schedule - how you can help
Brian, I am sorry but it is currently not possible for me to be there during the evening... although there may be one exception. * About 25 monitors need to be tested (50 are tested) to check if they are good or bad. * Good monitors need to be transported from a classroom to Pricebusters. * Bad monitors need to be transported to Royal Data, and perhaps negotiate a deal with the guy to trade the many broken for a small number of working monitors. If he doesn't want to deal, no problem, just give it to him. * Roughly 3 monitors are not bad, but blurry. Perhaps these are easily fixable. * Several good computers need to be transported to Pricebusters. (Jimen could you please post the address, driving directions and perhaps a small map to the Pricebusters locations on the Wiki?) Aside from the work at Mid-Pac, we soon need a complete inventory of the hardware at Pricebusters. That can be done on whatever schedule you can work out with them. There is one problem in that the online chat meeting is tonight at 7pm, so Thursday evening would be bad. Is anyone else interested in helping Friday evening with the transport of monitors and computers? - Original Message - From: Brian Low [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 01, 2002 8:08 AM Subject: RE: [luau] My schedule - how you can help Aloha Warren, I can make it posibly on both days :) Until what time will you be there at the school?

[luau] Nmap 3.00 Released!
- Original Message - From: Fyodor [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 31, 2002 11:54 AM Subject: Nmap 3.00 Released! [ Side note: We had to change IPs due to changing racks at our colocation facility. If you have trouble reaching www.insecure.org, try http://64.71.184.53/ ] -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hello everyone, I am pleased to announce that Nmap version is finally available at http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ . After more than 2 years and 39 beta releases, the stable 3.00 release has arrived. And just in time for your Blackhat, Defcon, and USENIX Sec shenanigans :). The changes in 3.00 (over 2.53) are dramatic, and we recommend that all current users upgrade. Here is a list of the most important changes (a much more comprehensive list is at http://www.insecure.org/nmap/data/CHANGELOG ): o Added protocol scan (-sP), which determines what IP protocols (TCP, IGMP, GRE, UDP, ICMP, etc) are supported by a given host. This uses a clever technique designed and implemented by Gerhard Rieger . o Nmap now recognizes more than 700 operating system versions and network devices (printers, webcams, routers, etc) thanks to thousands of contributions from the user community! Many operating systems were even recognized by Nmap prior to their official release. Nmap3 also recognizes 2148 port assignments, 451 SunRPC services, and 144 IP protocols. o Added Idlescan (-sI), which bounces the scan off a zombie machine. This can be used to bypass certain (poorly configured) firewalls and packet filters. In addition, this is the most stealthy Nmap scan mode, as no packets are sent to the target from your true IP address. o The base Nmap package now builds and functions under Windows! It is distributed in three forms: build-it-yourself source code, a simple command-line package, or along with a nice GUI interface (NmapWin) and a fancy installer. This is due to the hard work of Ryan Permeh (from eEye), Andy Lutomirski, and Jens Vogt. o Mac OS X is now supported, as well as the latest versions of Linux, OpenBSD, Solaris, FreeBSD, and most other UNIX platforms. Nmap has also been ported to several handheld devices -- see the Related Projects page for further information. o XML output (-oX) is now available for smooth interoperability between Nmap and other tools. o Added ICMP Timestamp and Netmask ping types (-PP and -PM). These (especially timestamp) can be useful against some hosts that do not respond to normal ping (-PI) packets. Nmap still allows TCP ping as well. o Nmap can now detect the uptime of many hosts when the OS Scan option (-O) is used. o Several new tests have been added to make OS detection more accurate and provide more granular version information. o Removed 128.210.*.* addresses from Nmap man page examples due to complaints from Purdue security staff. o The --data_length option was added, allowing for longer probe packets. Among other uses, this defeats certain simplistic IDS signatures. o You can now specify distinct port UDP and TCP port numbers in a single scan command using a command like 'nmap -sSU -p U:53,111,137,T:21-25,80,139,515,6000,8080 target.com'. See the man page for more usage info. o Added mysterious, undocumented --scanflags and --fuzzy options. o Nmap now provides IPID as well as TCP ISN sequence predictability reports if you use -v and -O. o SYN scan is now the default scan type for privileged (root) users. This is usually offers greater performance while reducing network traffic. o Capitalized all references to God in error messages. o Added List scan (-sL) which enumerates targets without scanning them. o The Nmap random IP scanning mode is now smart enough to skip many unallocated netblocks. o Tons of more minor features, bugfixes, and portability enhancements. MOVING FORWARD: With this stable version out of the way, I plan to dive headfirst into the next development cycle. Many exciting features are in the queue, including IPv6 support, service fingerprinting, improved performance against heavily filtered hosts, and more!

Any other method of administration is simply uneconomical. Couldn't a graphical method of executing 'rm -rf' also allow accidental deletion? An accident is an accident, no matter what tools you use. Mechanisms to prevent such accidents can be applied to CLI commands just as easily as to GUIs. --jc -- Jimen Ching (WH6BRR) [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [luau] My schedule - how you can help
I went to the Price Busters Stadium location today and spoke to Julie as well. Two things: 1. She will be clearing space for us to put the monitors (if you can't fit all 30 at MidPac). 2. For those interested in testing / prepping equipment for the LTSP for schools project, you MUST SIGN IN AND OUT with the manager on duty (Either Julie, Robert or Jay). Also, we must only use the front entrance (Main store entrance). Unfortunately I've hurt my leg and won't be of much use carrying anything as I can barely walk.

The question comes down to, Royal Data still going to be open on Friday evening? Also, I can start the inventory of items at Price Busters. Does this need to be a complete inventory of all equpment (working or not working)? Or just on the working equpment. Are all the equpment at PriceBusters working? Thanks, Brian I will call Royal Data and ask if he can be there to receive broken monitors Friday night. None of the equipment at Pricebusters has been tested, so a complete inventory would be needed. Regarding the 30 17 monitors, what is the status of these? There has been a sudden change of plans and we can make immediate use of the 17 monitors at Mid-Pacific. ___ LUAU mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://videl.ics.hawaii.edu/mailman/listinfo/luau

Mechanisms to prevent such accidents can be applied to CLI commands just as easily as to GUIs. The solution is to never use -f when executing rm as root. If you do, make sure you aren't using it with -r also. Only if you have really checked over what's going to happen (replace -i with -f first) should you ever consider typing rm -rf as root. I know people who alias rm -rf to echo 'Don't even think about it!' so that if they type that, they have to explicitly unalias it to make it work. --jc
