Hence, in the subject "Apache or Mandrake". I think permissions on /home/user/public_html should be 711. I wouldn't change permissions on /home/user (unless you're tightening it up). You might try turning on the /home/*/public_html option in httpd.conf and just testing a user. If you can do that ok, then your problem might not be permissions but your VirtualHost entry.

I'm stumped on this problem. I've created a virtual host in my apache vhosts config (pointing to a home directory). However, I'm still getting permission denied errors. I've read and re-read the Apache docs, which leads me to believe this is something I don't understand about Mandrake 10. If I chmod 755 the person's home directory folder (for testing purposes only), the problem is aleviated. I don't get it, because the URL's in the directives below are correct.

Well, last time I checked, it appeared that a lot of people were just then upgrading to a new version, so I assumed that the latest was fairly new for B2evolution.

I am currently using B2Evolution and it does have the ability to block domains from both referrers and comments within the blog. Of course, they can create another domain but it is obviously trivial to add additional domains to the block list which will get expensive for them eventually. B2evolution also has a built-in spam block feature that downloads shared lists of other B2evolution users so that you can update your list and proactively block referrer and comment spam.

Okay, in the httpd.conf file, add this line somewhere near the top, not within the virtual directory line: SetEnvIfNoCase Referer ".*(casino|gambling|poker|porn|viagra).*" BadReferrer All on one line, ignore any wrapping from the newsreader. Add terms as needed to block additional referrer blacklisted terms. This will tell Apache to set an environment variable of badreferrer when it receives a request that contains the blacklisted term. Now, within the virtual directory for your blog, site or whatever, add these lines: allow from all order allow,deny Deny from env=BadReferrer Any order, it doesn't matter but Apache will explicitly deny when it sees the badreferrer environment variable. Restart Apache and if you check your access_log, you should see 403 results for any request that contains a blacklisted term. Simply add, as necessary, additional terms and they will no longer be allowed access. Once you have locked it down, consider sending a polite request to the and tell him that they might as well give it up and they should realize the futility of wasting traffic and go away. -- Bryan Phinney Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] Apache and blocking Referrer spam
Don't know if anyone else here is running Apache with web logs, or 'blogs' and has had trouble with referrer spam but I thought I would mention my latest experience. Blogs are one of the more interesting developments of the Internet and there are a lot of packages out there that allow people to maintain their own blogs.

They are also hoping to increase their Google rank by increasing the number of sites that advertise links to their own sites. Mostly porn sites currently, but several others have been doing this.

RE: [newbie] Apache
I suspect that the reason these images aren't appearing on http://www.mysite.org/mypage/ is because they are linked to "images/..." if you changed this to "/images/..." then they would work. The reason they work for http://www.mysite.org/mypage is because "images/" is actually the same as "/images/" as you are in the document root directory.

RE: [newbie] apache making me batty
chmod o+x /home/*
is all you need for the users. It allows the world
to enter the directories but not list them. I
would recommend:
find /home -type d -name public_html -exec chmod 2750 {} \;
find /home -type d -name public_html -exec chown -R .apache {} \;
which sets the group sticky bit on the public_html directories.
All new files/directories created in public_html will have group
apache.

On a 9.1 box running highest level security with Apache 1.3.

Re: [newbie] Apache Virtual Hosting
There really isn't that much to tell.. Install apache2, then go to /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts and edit Vhosts.conf For each virt domain, add something like this: ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED] DocumentRoot /home/httpd/webstuff/www/web ServerName somewhere.com ServerAlias www.somewhere.com ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/httpd/webstuff/www/cgi-bin/ Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride All Order deny,allow Allow from all AllowOverride All Options ExecCGI Order deny,allow Allow from all ErrorLog /home/httpd/webstuff/server_logs/error_log #CustomLog /home/httpd/webstuff/server_logs/access_log common where 123.123.123.123 is the IP address of the interface serving the domain.. on apache1.3 I could just have that as an *, but for some reason that doesn't work with apache2. you can serve the pages for each domain anywhere you want.. just create the dir structure, make sure its readable by apache and edit the above parts to suit. hope that helps.. rgds Franki Lee Wiggers wrote: Hi all I followed a thread a few weeks ago that explained step by step how to set up apache2 with virtual hosts.

[newbie] Apache 1.3, mod_perl on MDK 9.1
I'm trying to set up an Apache module that depends on mod_perl and Apache 1.3 (does not play well with the mod_perl in Apache 2). I ran /usr/sbin/advxrun1.3 to switch to Apache 1.3, but it returns an error about Invalid command 'PerlSetEnv', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration. I am told that means the mod_perl is either not installed or enabled. I know I have the mod_perl for Apache 1.3. How can I find out if it's enabled, or how do I enable it?

[newbie] Apache 2.x server configuration question
I'm wanting to use the apache server to host 2 domains from the same dynamic ip, that is so far staying very static ( 3 months ). But it is nat'd. ( 192.168.123.197 ). the thing I'm not sure of is how do I tell apache to distinguish between the default setup which has all the nice documentation links and a ton of directories that I'm just starting to investigate so don't want to lose yet, and the two seperate places where I'll put the other domain files? I tried creating a directory for www.camplighthouse.org ( the server name is Genesis.camplighthouse.org as /home/camplighthouse/public_html and told apache to use it as a virtual host, but when I go there I still see the same default webpage even though I've put a junk index.html page there.

[newbie] Apache question, blocking outside links?
Greetings. Please excuse this post, as I was not able to find anything in the faq which mentions script that would either block outside links from one's own server. Take such as a link from an offencive or pornographic website that linked one's web server to its front page. Is there a way to block such a link from say www.pornpictures.com (a bogus address just for example) so that all who clicked on this link from the offencive site would either get an error or be re-directed?

You need to click the Module Config link on the Apache tab and tell it to use the correct httpd.conf file instead of httpd2.conf. My guess would be that you have both Apache 2 and Apache 1.3 installed but are running 1.3. Webmin tries to figure out which version you are running and defaults to 2 if it is there, I think. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] apache user can't execute outside apache root, why?
Hi, I'm new to mandrake (9.1) and facing a problem that does not occur on my OSX machine. I'm running a perl web interface on apache2. The script invokes an executable residing in /usr/local/bin. Now the script executes fine when run from commandline but troubles occur when run through a browser. I checked "su apache" and discovered that there is no way to execute programs from /usr/local/bin even with having set the proper permissions (world read and execute) on this directory. As security on mandrake is still a black box to me i wonder if there is any "hidden" gadget preventing apache to execute anything outside the apache root directory. As I said on OSX it worked fine, both from browser and commandline. best regards Tobias Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

I'm increasingly suspecting the Dell box that I've got it all on as the culprit for a lot of the problems I'm having. Just for a lark I installed everything on a much newer Sony and it all came up without a hitch, except for having to hand configure the things that MCC was about to bork again. The MCC issue is kinda curious. It detects the NICs correctly and, unlike XP, even identifies them properly. It sees the ISP on eth1 and the internal network on eth0 but the moment I let it go it reverses everything. I'm also wondering if it's little issue is that they're both DHCP assigned. Still it's a pain in the buttocks. I'll have another look at it all in September when I stop working 6 days a week and grab a couple of weeks off. :-) ttfn John Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] apache setup and archives
I don't know as I don't use vhosts, but I actually like the set up of 2.x better. The configuration seems a bit more modular. I'll poke around and see if I can find a sample vhosts file on here somewhere; I'm guessing it uses the same format.

RE: [newbie] apache setup and archives
hmmm, well I have the same thing, eth0 for internal, eth1 for external.. I have apache advx working for the most part, although I did suffer with some probs running mod_perl apps, they only work with :8200 in the url, (I use virtual named hosting). other then that, I have half a dozen domains running php on this box. I don't use MCC for much of anything, I have my smb.conf and do everything else by hand, most importantly the network connections. AS for the firewall, I have never used shorewall, i keep meaning to, then I read posts like this one about it and decide to stick with gShield. (with is a simple text config you answer yes or no to each quesiton and it just works.) Sad as it is to me, I'd like to say nice things about msec, as its a fantastic idea in theory.. but even on the servers I set them to normal and tighten things by hand.. every time I try a server setting, I have no end of trouble getting things to work.. The problem as I see it, is that mandrake have alot of really good programmers, but no really good software designers... I also think mandrake should make a bunch of webmin modules for mandrake specific tools.. msec should be a bumch oc checkboxes where you can choose custom and just tick the items you want enforced.

Re: [newbie] Apache 2, virtual hosts and SSL
It did not work for me, sorry. When I add a new host to the sss.default-vhost.conf file, it appears in WebMin as "just another virtual host" which manages the named virtual host. Actually, the only way in which i can use HTTPS with my Apache 2 system is by using "https://localhost/"; and this makes use of the default vhost present in the ssl.default-vhost.conf file. Clearly this prevents me from accessing my WebServer from another machine by using HTTPS. Also, one strange thing is that when in Webmin I try to use the "SSL options" associated to any virtual host, the "SSLEngine on" directive is properly written in the Vhost.conf file but apachectl is unable to restart, i.e. this directive makes httpd2 not able to start. Now, it seems to me that this should be something "very basic"... i.e. HOW COULD I USE HTTPS on a Virtual Host! Using HTTPS on localhost does not add that much, right ? /stefano Troy Davidson wrote: Stefano, I was reading up on Virtual Domains and Apache and found this.
