Re: [newbie] Ping gamers
You won't likely find a 19 LCD panel that has a refresh rate of less than 20ms that's affordable. For some reason panel manufacturers haven't gotten their sh** together with the 19 panels yet, so shoot for a 17 panel (can be had for $200-$300) or go all out for the Dell FP2001 which can be had for under $700 if you catch a deal.

Re: [newbie] ping flood?
If your machine is reasonably current (300Mhz or faster, 128MB+ RAM), then I would have to suspect a distributed attack via a virus or worm. Maybe. There were a large number of different, seemingly random, hosts all trying port 4156. Portsentry seems to be the way to get rid of these, and all the hosts it reported are now blocked. I just had to do a little reading and edit the config file. I'm back to normal, at least for now :). Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

If it's a ping storm how do I stop it? I figure it has something to do with iptables but I'm a real newbie where this type of thing is concerned. After looking at tcpdump for a few minutes it is not apparent that a single site is trying to connect, but a large number of different sites. They all have one thing in common, though, this port 4156. Dfox, Why don't you try installing Portsentry? It modifies the netfilter tables on the fly so you don't have to be an instant brainiac. You can also specify specific ip addresses for it to drop via iptables. I would try posting this to the expert list too, there are some peeps there who might have some more comments and suggestions. I also noticed when looking in /var/log a couple of lines that look specifically like breakin attempts within the last week... Sep 16 19:17:04 m206-157 rpc.statd[1008]: gethostbyname error for ^X÷ÿ¿^X÷ÿ¿^Y÷ÿ ¿^Y÷ÿ¿^Z÷ÿ¿^Z÷ÿ¿^[÷ÿ¿^[÷ÿ¿%8x%8x%8x%8x%8x%8x%8x%8x%8x%236x%n%137x%n%10x%n%192x%n \220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220\220 etc... that is very suspicious - that looks like an exploit. This looks like a buffer overflow attempt. Between 9/16 and today nothing suspicious; there is always the lone ftp or nntp attempt but they fail and it doesn't impact performance. But today, it's like someone is flood pinging my device - the net lights are constantly on. I also saw this today: Sep 21 10:03:59 m206-157 kernel: Neighbour table overflow. Sep 21 10:03:59 m206-157 last message repeated 9 times Sep 21 10:04:04 m206-157 kernel: NET: 3050 messages suppressed. Sep 21 10:04:04 m206-157 kernel: Neighbour table overflow.

I've seen some, but the landscape is changing so very fast that it's hard to stay up on the latest custom iptables scripts.

RE: [newbie] ping
Hello all I'm trying to take my first steps with either MySQL or PostgreSQL, and the documentation at those websites, while great, is hard to follow from a Mandrake perspective (it seems the files are in different places from what those websites say is customary, and there must be some small setup involved, because things like 'initdb' are producing error messages implying that all the ducks are not in a row).

RE: [newbie] ping (MySQL)
Hello Edmund, I have a fresh installation of LM 8.0 running on my laptop. I poked around a bit to see if I could use MySQL, as it was installed with the OS. You should be able to see the two default databases with the following command: [me@mySystem /]$ mysqlshow This should produce output that looks like: +---+ | Databases | +---+ | mysql | | test | +---+ You can use the mysqladmin command to create new databases, and do all kinds of other things. I have some really good notes from a friend; let me see if I can find them, and I will email them to you a little later... They may be in MS Powerpoint format, but you should be able to open that using StarOffice on LM 8.0.

Re: [newbie] ping port 7?
I think this would block pings, but I'm sure there are other ways, much better, to block ping request. A firewall should handle that for you. As far as it preventing you from pinging other machines, it won't affect you. If you block the port, it will not accept packets at that level, it has nothing to do with you being able to us /bin/ping. The only way to really prevent that, would be to do a chmod /bin/ping. tdh -- T. Holmes - UNIXTECHS.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Real Men Use Vi!

Re: [newbie] Ping
Sounds like a firewall issue. Do you have something like Norton's Internet Security running? It will not all echo requests so you won't get a response from the host whe pinging that machine. Try to telnet to the Linux box. If you can get through, then it's most likely an issue like that. Allow that sort of protocol, or lower the level of security. Your choice there. But if you can ping the Linux box from the Windows machine, then they can talk, just the ICMP echo request is denied. tdh -- T. Holmes - UNIXTECHS.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Real Men Use Vi!
