[opensuse] Firewall with a dynadns router behind it
I want to get a router that supports dynadns but I want set up a computer with a firewall using iptables to be my firewall to the internet modem. So now in the router options it says to put the internet IP address the modem has. Okay so the lay out CABLE MODEM -- FIREWALL using IP tables Router --- workstations Now if I use the firewall pc as a DHCP, that would not give the Router an internet IP, right? It would be a local IP. Socould I refverse it and put the IP tables behind the router and use the router as a dhcp and make the firewall static? i.e: CABLE MODEM -- Router -- FIREWALL using IP tables -- switch -- workstations Keep in mind this is a wireless router w/ 4 LAN ports as well... So in the 2nd scenario I wouldn't need a wireless router I could get a wirless switch, right? Actually, I guess in the 2nd scenario I wouldn't even need the router? Another question is, in first scenario, would the firewall PC get connected to the Router's internet port (is that uplink?) or into one of the regular ports. In the 2nd, would the firewall pc go into the switch uplink or a switch port? -- Michael S. Dunsavage -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've just learned about .forward and .procmailrc and have no problem with Regular Expression. How do I match an email's address pattern ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) from RECEIVED field in mail's header and then resend it ? Why procmail? You may better use fetchmail. This is partly supported by YaST. What's missing is the catch-all case (multi drop mailboxes). This must be configured manually in /etc/fetchmailrc. Look into the man page of fetchmail for details. Procmail is a mail delivery agent. Fetchmail is a mail retrieval agent. You can use Fetchmail to grab email from your ISP's POP3 or IMAP servers and deliver it to local users on your Linux system. This may be preferable to the global account at your ISP, but that depends on many factors. But fetchmail has the ability to evaluate the Received fields or (better) other custom fields added by the ISP that contain the envelope of the emails. With procmail you can use a number of rules to deliver email as you know. The problem is that there are a number of Received fields. One thing you could do is similar to the way we use Spamassasin, is to pipe the message through a program or script that you write, and add a unique field that you can key on. Here is my .procmailrc generic spamc rule. :0fw: spamassassin.lock * 256000 | spamc So, you could use something like: :0fw:mycode.lock : | mycode Mycode would then create a header line, such as mycode: username Then you would create a simple set of rules for the new header line you inserted. Sure, procmail is a useful and flexible tool. But for getting mail from a multi drop mailbox and delivering it into separate mailboxes via postfix or sendmailm, fetchmail works better. You can even use procmail for other tasks, too. There may be a more elegant way of doing this, but it should work. Even when I think fetchmail is better for the task of loading and sorting mails from multi drop mailboxes, this is not elegant too, because multi drop mailboxes itself are a kludge. Cheers, Herbert I think someone wandered off point here :-) The original poster indicated in reply that he was using fetchmail to obtain mail but that he wanted to perform some additional processing of the mail before it was delivered. Fetchmail is strongest at getting mail and delivering it to appropriate mail boxes but has NO facilities to pre process mail before delivery. Procmail gives one the facility to pre process mail, and I personally use it for a) spam processing and b) for moving some low priority mail from the mail box so that I should only see stuff I am interested in when I access mail from my Nokia. (Saves bills..:-)) This pre processing can involve forwarding mail, for external mail fetchmail would be best but for mail delivered locally procmail is more effective.

[opensuse] Device Permissions
I have been looking through the archives to fix a device permission issue I have. I was sure (though my memory, or lack of it, is a problem) that there was a link for it, but I can't find it; many discussing the problem, but none provide the solution I am after. The problem is as follows, I have SuSE 10.2 and I have a usb-serial adaptor. When it is attached to the system the permissions to /dev/ttyUSB0 are 660, so good for root, but not for the normal user. I can change the permissions to 666, or change the ownership, but will have to do it every time the adaptor is connected to the system, but not ideal.

The pam_apparmor PAM module can help significantly -- put all your untrusted users in a single group, and then give that group very restricted privileges in AppArmor's sshd policy.

[opensuse] Radeon X1050 3D Acceleration HOWTO
hi folks, My latest machine adventure has led me to a new Radeon X1050 card--- which surprise is really an old RV370 chip--- like the X300, X550, X600. (I digress) So, the card works fine under normal ops... sax2 identified it correctly as an rv370, and loaded the radeon driver. The problem is -- no 3D acceleration. The 3D accelerate check box in sax2 is grayed out (cannot be selected)... and of course none of the 3D openSUSE games will play... the ones that require 3D that is. So, I've been doing some snooping around and wondering which path to go down first. Is 3D acceleration possible with the default ati radeon driver that ships with openSUSE 10.0? Are there some options I can select that make this work? Do I need to download the latest ATI proprietary driver from AMD/ATI? (looks like a PITA, but I'm game) TIA -- Kind regards, M Harris -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[opensuse] the cp command
Hello, I have two directories that are almost identical to each other and I need to copy the contents of the source directory over the to the target directory, but without overwriting any files that are newer on the target. Is there an argument that I can use with the 'cp' command to accomplish this? I have the following to preserve time stamps and permissions; cp -pRv /mnt/userdir /media/userdir Thank you, James -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
