Vhost mod rewrite
Hi, I just set up a new CentOS 6.5 LAMP box. I am in the process of configuring the vhosts. I created a file /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhosts.conf and the docroot to go with the vhost definition. So far so good. What I am wondering about is if I can do something like this in the vhost.conf file: Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride All Order allow,deny allow from all DocumentRoot /home/username/public_html ServerName domain.tld Or would it be more proper to do something like this: Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AllowOverride All Order allow,deny allow from all DocumentRoot /home/username/public_html ServerName domain.tld Thanks in advance for your input!!

Re: How to find or set printer IP address for wireless?
on my printer (HP Photosmart C7250)I go into settings and configure it for wireless and then find the page that lists it's IP and then I know the IP. but because I configured it to be a wireless printer I don't need the IP address (if I remember right). It was great I installed mX14 and it just print (I just needed to turn the OS on). :-)~MIKE~(-: On Wed, Jun 11, 2014 at 10:37 AM, Stephen Partington wrote: > the router or Access Point serving up wireless to yoru printer, they have > settings/inormation on every device that connects to it.

Re: How to find or set printer IP address for wireless?
the router or Access Point serving up wireless to yoru printer, they have settings/inormation on every device that connects to it.

Thanks Stephen, but I don't know what my "AP" is or how to use it to find out what the printer's IP address is. AP = Access Point, short for "wireless access point". In your case, this would be the wireless router that hands out IP addresses to all your wireless devices. Somewhere in this router's admin interface, there should be a page/listing/something of all the client wireless devices that the router knows about, some info about each device, and what each device's IP address is. I can't give exact directions to this listing because every wireless router is different. Posting the make+model might allow someone else to tell you exactly where to go--or check the router's technical manual, if it has one. If not, comb through the options in the admin interface until you find it? -- Crow202 Blog: http://crow202.org/wordpress There is no Darkness in Eternity But only Light too dim for us to see. --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss

Re: visudo
That's pretty much the basic "root can't login" variant. Login as normal user, become root, and off you go. It is far more secure than having an exposed root, but the advantage of sudo is granularity. This has been attempted in various ways through the years. Sun's RBAC was fun, each "role" being a non-loginable user that you became to run the limited commands it was allowed. I prefer sudo, where I can specify exactly the commands each person can run. The thing about security, is that anyone with much experience knows that root is a state of mind. It's a tradeoff between difficulty in using and difficulty in bypassing.

Re: Using Bind on local dev box
You have any number of options for this. dnsmasq, etc. A split DNS system (running your own BIND or whatnot) is quite easy to do, and only requires that you keep your DNS server (or servers) on something resembling high-availability hardware. Obviously, if you set your internal DNS as primary on all your internal hosts and it goes down, your internal stuff will have a bit of a problem. So yeah, basic BIND installation, with forwarders set up to whatever your favorite DNS servers are, and implementing your own TLDs is pretty common and you shouldn't have any great difficulty. Just be sure that your TLD isn't already taken. https://www.iana.org/domains/root/db On Tue, Jun 10, 2014 at 10:38 AM, wrote: > > > I'm configuring a dev box and was wondering if I should use bind and if > there is any issues I should be aware of like security. > > The box lives on a private IP behind a router connected to the internet. > It will have no ports forwarded.
