 I have the PROM/EPROM burner to write eprom's for the NIC, but this came
at a
 wrong time, I am currently in Germany and wouldn't be back until the 26 of
Aug.
 Sorry,
 Warren.


That's okay, Wilson Chan said that he has those types of devices. We would
just have to identify which cards are usable for this purpose, and which
chips are compatible with those cards.  Would you happen to know, or know
where to look for this info?

Boot images normally fit on 16k bytes or 32k bytes eprom.  I think the chip 
label this way, it's like 27xxx, where xxx = 128(27128) which is 16kbytes, 
because IC use bits in the label: 128kbit/8 =16kbyte. I think most NIC works on 
12ns or faster.

[luau] Help needed with kernel patching

2002-08-01 Thread Ho'ala Greevy
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

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.

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?

[luau] Nmap 3.00 Released!

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!  Developers (or
active testers) interested in participating can join the nmap-dev list
by sending a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .  If you
want to be notified of new releases and important announcements, send
a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to join that
list.

DOWNLOAD INFO:

If you'd like to explain how to delete files on a system that's 100s of 
miles away without using rm or a similar command line utility, I'd be 
happy to hear it.  I don't want a oh, remote display nautilius answer

wouldn't want to see the bills...

He had backups, but it was an issue of restoring them.  He had no 
physical access to the server as it was hundreds of miles away.  It 
would have taken him a few days just to get to the server, then he would 
still have to take the server out of the colo, restore, and then ptu it 
back in.  Some colo companies will do restorations for you, but usually 
at a very high price if they will at all.




Maybe this (necessity for use of CLI) is the state of the art, but you 
guys are talking as if we should be resigned to this situation, or even

If the system's sitting at your desk or on your local lan where you can 
export X displays to your heart's content without paying thousands of 
dollars in bandwidth fees to money grubbing telcos, a nice GUI works 
just fine.  However, when you've got a server living in a datacenter 
habitat that's hundreds or even thousands of miles away from you and 
you're paying for every bit you transmit, you'd better be sure you're 
gunna be workign on it from the command line.  Any other method of 
administration is simply uneconomical.

   I need a volunteer to haul 30 17 monitors to Mid Pacific Institute
for
   LTSP lab project.  The monitors are at Hickam AFB,  and need to be
gone
   by Monday of next week at the latest.  I have a truck but they said
   someone else from the project needed  to pick them up and sign for
   them.  Your help would be greatly appreciated.  Jeff Zidek

 RE MONITORS!

 Price Busters Stadium Store next to Checker Auto in the plaza where
 Kmart is located.

 Check with the manager on Duty and explain they are for Scott, The Linux
 Project. They will show you where you can put them. It may have to be
 outside the store room as it is really full.

 Please Tell them Julie Plant, the General Manager for the Location,
 knows about the delivery.

 Warren,
I can help on Friday with the transport of items.  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.

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. Time to start installing GAIM...

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.
