Re: samba

[Thierry ITTY]

just my 2 cents :

when you start the smb daemon it reads the config file you specify on the
command line (or in the init.d/smb script) or the default one (depending on
compile-time options). when it gets a connection request it forks (or
spawns) a new dameon with the config file specified in the original config
file's config file option line (see what i mean ?) that's why you can
specify samba variables (like %L) which will be expanded at the time of the
child process creation.

in my opinion those config files (smb.conf.FILE and smb.conf.PRINT) have to
be "complete" that is identical but eventually with different share
sections or different parameters (auth lists and so on). anyway the must be
consistent enough to "work" standalone. that is, if you start the smb
daemon with either of those config files, you must have a "print only" or a
"files only" server running fine.

then, when your 2 configurations are well defined and working fine, you can
try to get a mix with a third config file in which you will specify the
alternatives config files with "config file = smb.conf.%L". of course take
care to case sensitivity and other stuff which may cause problems.

doing this that way, and with log files information (use debugging
parameter to help) you should be able to satisfy your wish.

but, i have just a question, what will it give you to have such a dual
configuration ???

RE: Compile Kernel....

[Drew Hunt]

Make sure multi-processor support is enabled in the .config.  I had issue
with a script that runs for this option regardless of whether you want it or
not and it requires the number of processors.  It will error out the compile
if it is set blank (no SMP support).  Including it won't hurt since it'll
use a value of 1 (processor) and continue on.  Just a little extra code.  At
least, that's how I fixed it.

Re: Apache port 80 problem

[Vineeta]

You can do a couple of things.
First of all,try changing the port to say,8080 to run your httpd
Then,check by doing "telnet localhost" and see what you get.
Secondly,run your httpd in verbose mode.
Send across your httpd.conf file for a more clearer picture.
Let's sort it out.

Re: Ramen worm

[tc lewis]

so i've done some investigating.  wu-ftpd-2.6.0-security.patch is indeed
the functional equivalent of lreply-buffer-overflow.patch, which addresses
the exploit for wu-ftpd that was published on june 22, 2000.  this appears
to be the only major security problem and fix since october of 1999.  see
http://www.wu-ftpd.org/ for more info.

so the rpm from 5.2 updates i'm guessing is secure from this
vulnerability, just as the rpm from 6.2 updates, and the rpms from 7.0.

in fact, for more info, the 5.2 update and the 6.2 update for wu-ftpd were
both released on the same day (june 23, 2000) and addressed this same
issue.  respective page:
http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/RHSA-2000-039-02.html

guess i should've just checked that stuff in the first place.

anyway, thanks all for your suggestions and other info.

up2date.

[Edward Dekkers]

Hi all,
If anyone has seen this before, could you please respond.

Using up2date I can get a listing.

I then use up2date -b 

It hangs at 'retrieving headers for ...'

Then drops off to the prompt - no other warnings.

If I ftp in to RedHat on the same server and 'get' the relevant rpm myself
no problem, which kind of eliminates the possibility of ipchains problems
etc.

Does up2date use weird ports or anything? When I ftp from the server I DO
NOT need to run in passive mode to get the files manually.

Look for "PuTTY". It's freeware, supports SSH2 and is easy to setup.

Yes. Remember that OpenSSH uses /etc/hosts.allow and hosts.deny to decide if
it should accept a connection.

Not true...  Jumping revs will do that...  Keeping up to date
should not.  RedHat 6.2 will ALL of the security updates is still on
inetd, not xinetd.

Granted that RedHat's record with regard to security and
upgrades like this has been an abysmal embarrasment.  But it's still
the only shot you've got.  As low as it is, you can only do
worse by NOT upgrading.  That will not change until people start
turning from RedHat and turning to more responsible vendors.
Unfortunately, I can't recommend any that are any better.  TurboLinux
was but has not been doing a good job lately.  All the others have
pluses and minues.  Pick yer poison.

RedHat 7.0 was not the solution to RedHat 6.2 problems, nor
will be 7.1.  RedHat wants to make technologically leaps with their
.0 release and damn the torpedos, so be it.  For me, .0 means it
won't work.  .1 means that it works but the security problems will
screw you.  .2 means it's stable but keep up with the patches.

Don't complain about moving from a .2 to a next.0.  You move
from a "keep it stable" to a "we have something new and wild in store
for you" release.  If you are stable on 6.2, then keep up with the
updates and you don't have to worry about the inetd/xinetd screwover.

Problem remains...  In this case, merely changing a date in
a banner makes you immune to Ramen.  Doesn't mean you have fixed anything.
Means you have only ducked this bullet.  Keep up to date with the rev
you have installed.  Does NOT mean upgrading from 6.2 to 7.0 as soon
as it comes out.  It means keeping up to date with the 6.2 updates.
Good or bad, the alternative is only worse.

I don't think shells have a concept between local and global scope. The
issue is that the pipe creates a subshell, which inherits the first shell
environment, but doesn't pass it back when it exits ... here's an example
...

The first three tests all create subshells that modify $num. The fourth
doesn't, and there $num is modified for the script.


#!/bin/bash

echo "First test pipe to while"
num=0
echo 1 | while read line; do
num=1
echo $num
done
echo $num

echo "Second test while in subshell"
num=0
(
while [ $num -eq 0 ]; do
num=1
echo $num
done
)
echo $num

echo "Third test subshell without while"
num=0
(
num=1
echo $num
)
echo $num

echo "Fourth test while without subshell"
num=0
while [ $num -eq 0 ]; do
num=1
echo $num
done
echo $num

Nope - It wouldn't download anything at all, but I got it to print a log
file and it told me authorization required. Found out update -h does
actually work.

Then further on it tells me to point to ftp.redhat.com if I didn't pay.

sorry. I'm so used to typing man  to find what I need that I
forgot some progs allow  -h for info.

Re: Ramen worm

the problem with simply updating to the latest rpms is the switch from
inetd to xinetd and other misc config problems that the rpms will bring
out.  granted i can upgrade a handful of packages, and maybe that's the
safest choice, but i'd still be interested in knowing if
wu-ftpd-2.6.0-2.5.x is vulnerable to the attack or not / if that patch is

Oddities brought on by new glibc?

[Michael Burger]

Greetings.

I have an executable that I had originally compiled on my RH6.1 box,
glibc-2.1.2-11, egcs-1.1.2-24, kernel 2.2.12-20.

This executable ran fine on my RH7 box when copied over, and running
with glibc-2.2-9.

Yesterday, I updated glibc to glibc-2.2-12, and the executable
wouldn't run.

Now, when I try to compile it, I get the following error:

Anybody have any clue what it means, and how to fix it?  It's not my
source code, and I'm not a programmer, so I'm not really likely to go
mucking about in the code.

commands.ro: In function `ka_thread':

Not all loops:

num=0

#cat tmp | while read line ; do
while [ $num -eq 0 ]; do
 
 num=1
 echo $num

done

echo $num

#--- eof %

[hal@feenix hal]$ testing
1
1

It has something to do with that 'cat'. I just can't think of a
logical reason why.

This is correct behavior (from what I've known). The variables in the loop

In the latest version of apsfilter there is the option of:

Printing from a UNIX to Windows (using Samba)
Printing from UNIX to UNIX

Looking forward ot your feedback.

I'm not sure about the particular card you have, but IF IT HAS A BIOS:

Press  at startup for settings

Somewhere in there should be a setting for auto-terminating the card if it
is at the end of a SCSI chain. (SCSI Chains need to be terminated at both
ends, most ppl don't realise the card becomes the termination point if you
only have internal or external devices)

I think you need to turn this off if you want the chain to externd to the
external connection.

If it does not have a bios, there may be terminators on the card itself. You
need to remove these.

Hope This Helps.

1) Update to the latest...  Don't quible about this or that.

2) The worm is very anal about what it triggers on.  It triggers
on the date in the ftp banner.  If you are anything OTHER than the release
that is in 6.2 OOB or 7.0 First Edition OOB you are safe, not because you
can not be exploited but because this worm doesn't know what to do with
the date in that ftp banner.  Small comfort.  Next cut may include your
date.

LESSON:  Doesn't MATTER!  Get the latest or shut it down!

Check to see if the card has a termination jumper.  I don't remember if
this card has auto-termination, but from your problem, it doesn't sound
like it.  The SCSI bus has to be terminated on both ends.  When you are
using only external or only internal devices, the card is one end, and has
to be terminated.  When you have both internal and external devices, then
the device at the end of each chain fathest from the card have to have
ternimators, and the card can not have termination enabled.

SCSI adapter recognizes external or internal but not both !?

I have an Adaptec AIC-7850 SCSI adapter, to which I want to attatch an
internal Plextor CD-R drive and an external Nikon scanner.  My problem
is that the scanner is not recognized if the CD-R drive is connected.
I think that connecting the CD-R to the internal SCSI bus is somehow
defeating the external bus.

Is this supposed to happen?  Is this because this is a single bus
card?  Can anyone recommend a PCI SCSI adapter that will support an
external narrow bus and an internal narrow bus at the same time?

that's what I had thought too, but I had the same amount of services
going, just did an upgrade or install of 6.2 andthen tried 7.0.  The whole
computer only cost $20, it's a nice thing to be able to run NFS, Apache,
anonFTP, telnet, INN, PPPoE, ipchains, and many other things on a computer
like that.  Imagine win2000 doing that?  HA!!

That's for rpc.rstatd.  There are two of them statd and rstatd.

/etc/rc.d/init.d/rstatd I believe it is.

All of my rcX.d directories have rstatd K-linked. I shouldn't even have

I looked at my 6.2 box, and it is running 'rpc.statd', but I couldn't
determine how it was started, and hence, the proper way to stop it, now

Re: Cannot export display and run X stuff

[Michael R. Jinks]

I think just the Xfree86 package (no device drivers) should work -- I've
done this a few times myself and I don't think you need much else.

That will depend a little bit on the clients, though; if they use tk,
you'll need that, likewise with gtk, qt, whatever other dependencies
those clients might have.

Hi Kevin

So far i have it showing two netbios names.
but nothing shows up when you click on the computer.

i have smb.conf smb.conf.Print smb.conf.File with

netibs aliases = File Print
config file = config.smb.%L

but for:
smb.conf.File
only home section

and for:
smb.conf.Print
only printer stuff

all have the sambe global section.
is that right?


I like to you in advance for your patience 
and help on this.

Thank You

If you want to disable services, you have to edit /etc/inetd.conf, not
/etc/services.  /etc/services lists what services are on what port, but
commenting them out does not disable incomming services.  Depending on the
program, it may disable outgoing services, depending on whether the port
they connected is hard coded into the program or read from /etc/services.
Also, not all the services listed in /etc/services are controlled by
inetd.  Some of them are stand alone daemons.  (sshd is on of the stand
alone daemons.)

kde-2.1beta1

[Ted Gervais]

I currently have kde version 2.0.1 installed
and am struggling to bring in kde2.1beta1.

I just got the latest 'qt' files installed (qt-2.2.3-5)
so that much is out of the way. Next I tried to install the new support files 
but it said I:

package kdesupport-2.0.1-1 (which is newer than kdesupport-2.0.1-1) is 
already installed
package kdesupport-2.0.1-1 is already installed
package kdesupport-devel-2.0.1-1 (which is newer than 
kdesupport-devel-2.0.1-1) is already installed
package kdesupport-devel-2.0.1-1 is already installed
package kdesupport-wallpapers-2.0.1-1 is already installed  


...so I went unto the next file(s) . (LIBS).  
That installed ok or with very little resistance  so I finally moved to where 
I am now - the kde BASE files..

Now here I seem to have a real problem. Here is what I see when I try to 
installed  the kdebase* files:

# rpm -Uvh kdebase*.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
kdelibs = 2.1beta1 is needed by kdebase-2.1beta1-1
libbz2.so.0 is needed by kdebase-2.1beta1-1
#   

This seemed to tell me that I needed a new libbz2.so.0 file so I went off to 
rpmfind and did a search and the bottom line is that the following  files 
was produced.

 A file compression utility, RedHat-6.2 for i386  -  bzip2-0.9.5d-2-i386.rpm

I ran 'rpm' on that file and here is what I saw:

# rpm -Uvh bzip2-0.9.5d-2.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
bzip2 = 1.0.1 is needed by bzip2-devel-1.0.1-3
libbz2.so.1 is needed by gnorpm-0.95.1-5
libbz2.so.1 is needed by ImageMagick-5.2.2-5
libbz2.so.1 is needed by rpm-build-4.0-4
libbz2.so.1 is needed by rpm-4.0-4
libbz2.so.1 is needed by gnome-core-1.2.4-0_helix_2
libbz2.so.1 is needed by gnome-vfs-0.4.2.0-100_helix_2001011607
libbz2.so.1   is needed by kdeadmin-2.0.1-1
libbz2.so.1 is needed by rpm-python-4.0-4
# 

Does this mean that I now need libbz2.so.1  ??

I did a search using rpmfind and it said to get this file:

  A file compression utility, (RedHat-7.0 for i386)  bzip2-1.0.1-3-i386.rpm   
 
 So I got it and ran 'rpm' on it and it said this:

# rpm -Uvh bzip2-1.0.1-3.i386.rpm
package bzip2-1.0.1-3 is already installed
#

That file is already installed. So that leaves me with alll those errors or 
'needs' as pointed out above.

This is where I now sit. I have QT, kdesupport,  and kdelibs installed but 
can't get anywhere with kdebase.

Does anyone see what I am doing wrong??

  

bzip2-0.9.5d-2.i386.rpm 
bzip2-1.0.1-3.alpha.rpm 
bzip2-1.0.1-3.i386.rpm

RE: Apache port 80 problem

[Mark Basil]

Ok, let me describe this once more.  Upon trying to reload Apache (port 80),
the following is what happens:

Everything appears to be in working order.  Httpd is running -- ps aux shows
this.  However, when attempting to view a website, it just hangs.  A telnet
to port 80 give a 'connection refused' error.  When I checked the logs, the
error was something to the effect of "address already in use: cannot bind to
port 80".  I checked httpd.conf, and everything there seems good.  When
checking netstat, nothing shows up under :www or :80.  Also, an lsof -i
returns all secure ports *:443, but NONE at all for *:80.  I have no clue
what this could possibly be.  Although, since I can't seem to find anything
running on port 80, could the "address already in use" be something
different?  Not a port, but something else?  Thanks again everyone.

Linux to Linux Printing

[Jamby]

Looking for help with a printing problem...

Can't print to printer connected to one linux machine from a second
linux machine...

I have (2) linux machines capeblanco with a functioning printer
and nubble without a printer.

The printcap on nubble is:

# /etc/printcap
#

lp:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
:rm=capeblanco:\
:rp=lp:\  
:lp=/dev/null:\
:sh: 

The printcap on capeblanco is:

#   printcap   for capeblanco 1/16/01  jrh
#  
##PRINTTOOL3## LOCAL ljet2p 300x300 letter {} LaserJet2p Default 1
lp:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:lp=/dev/lp0:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:  

The hosts.lpd file on capeblanco is:
#
nubble  
# 

With the lpd -l option added to the /etc/rc.d/init.d/lpd file I get
the following output in the /var/log/messages file on capeblanco:

Jan 18 11:26:38 capeblanco kernel: lp0 off-line
Jan 18 11:34:15 capeblanco lpd[870]: nubble requests recvjob lp

Jan 18 11:34:15 capeblanco lpd[870]: reading cf file for lp
Jan 18 11:34:15 capeblanco lpd[870]: finished reading cf file for lp

If I shutdown the printer. Then print a file first from
capeblanco then from nubble. When I use lpq to look at the 
queue I see:

[root@capeblanco /etc]# lpq
lp is ready and printing

Note the zero bytes on the last line. Yet when I check the

-rw-rw   1 root lp546 Jan 18 11:47
dfA381capeblanco

Then  cf files from nubble are there and have length but when I turn on
the printer.. only the capeblanco file gets printed..

Checking the /var/spool/lpd/lp directory confirms all cf files are
gone..



Also: Nubble is a router so I administer it from capeblanco using a
remote shell.
  Should I just mount the nubble file system on capeblanco and then
print
  on capeblanco and do the administration tasks from there? would it
work?

Thanks for your time...

FILER = servername workstations use to access directories
PRINTS=servername workstations use to access printer services

1. add the following lines to smb.conf:

netbios aliases = FILER PRINTS
config file=config.smb.%L

2. copy smb.conf to smb.conf.FILER and smb.conf.PRINTS

3. edit smb.conf.FILER for file sharing specific configuration.  remove all
printer sections

4. edit smb.conf.PRINTS for printer services configuration.  remove homes
and all directory share sections.  Do not remove global section!

5. restart samba :

/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb restart

6. at each workstation, add a printer through PRINTS/{printer}.

7. at each worktstation, map network drives from FILER/{directories}

there is a "config file = " in a smb.conf file
when you start samba does this tell samba that there
are two more smb.conf.xxx files to load?

Re: Ramen worm

[Jeff Lane]

Maybe.  AFAIK, the only wu-ftp that is affected is the version that is
right off the install CDs for 6.2.

which is wu-ftpd-2.6.0-3.i386.rpm

I would imagine that the one listed on the errata page is probably
safe.  You could also try upgrading to 2.6.1, but I dont knwo if that will
break any dependencies anywere else (i.e. anonftp, or any libs that may be
deprecated or incompatible with 2.6.1 that may exist on a 6.2 install.)

Today's Top News Stories: The tech news you need to know.

 
Linux worm holes
An Internet worm cobbled together from 
generally available hacking tools has 
compromised hundreds, perhaps thousands, 
of Linux servers by using two well-known 
security flaws in applications set up during
the default installation of Red Hat Linux 
software.

Apple cuts prices
In a move that may foreshadow the introduction 
of new consumer desktops, Apple Computer 
has launched a $200 instant rebate for two 
iMac models. In recent weeks, Apple has used 
a string of rebates and price cuts to clear out 
stocks of its PowerBook and Power Mac lines, 
which were updated at last week's Macworld 
Expo in San Francisco. An Apple spokeswoman 
declined to comment on the instant rebates. 

 
Power to portables with cooling technology
A San Francisco company has received two 
patents for technology that may help achieve 
the Holy Grail of portable devices: making 
something smaller while not decreasing its 
battery life. Novel Concepts has registered 
the patents for a passive cooling technology 
called IsoSkin. It consists of two pieces of 
metal separated by about 500 microns--less 
than the thickness of a credit card--and partly 
filled with fluid in a vacuum, according to the 
company. 

 
FCC eyes mandating wireless-roaming agreements
All wireless phone customers know the 
frustration of being too far away from their 
network to make a call--but should the 
government mandate that our phones work 
in these unserved areas? 

 
Do antipiracy measures rob consumers?
Recently unveiled antipiracy measures aimed at 
eliminating even casual copying of software have 
some experts questioning whether companies 
have gone too far in controlling the use of their 
copyrighted material. 

 
Hackers' video technology goes open source
The developers of hacker video technology DivX 
are going public, opening up much of their work to 
the open-source community. DivX, which has no 
relation to the failed Circuit City DVD player, has 
spread quickly in underground computer circles as 
a way to create and send extremely high-quality 
video files online. While no DivX programmers 
have been sued, the technology has featured 
prominently in other antipiracy cases brought 
by the movie industry.

Re: samba

[Kevin Holmquist]

Why ipalias?

1) Assign two netbios names to your server.  Set each workstation to use one
server name for files and a different server name for print services.  Then
use 'config file = smb.conf.%L' to select the conf file for each server.
i.e.:

server: filer -> file sharing -> smb.conf.filer
server: print -> printer services -> smb.conf.print

Instead of %L, you can use %U (user), or %G (group) and the clients use
different logins for each service.

It's cliche', but check out 'man smb.conf' for details.

when you do ip alias, you can bind to both ports for

Re: 'Failed Dependencies'

[Mike Burger]

Hi, Ted.

What it's telling you is that qt-devel-2.2.2-2 needs qt-2.2.2-2.

You should probably update qt-devel first.

Its saying that you can't upgrade qt 2.2.2-2 unless you upgrade
qt-devel-2.2.2-2 as well.  Just upgrade both at the same time, or remove the
devel library if you arent going to use qt in any programs you plan to
write.  Hope this helps.

Re: samba

[Kevin Holmquist]

Use the following line:

config file = smb.conf.%{your variable here}

This will allow samba to load different config files based on the variable
(user, machine, group, etc)

Hope this helps!

"Infected" is the wrong word.  Infected, no.  Vulnerable, probably.

Probably not...  One very INTERESTING thing about this worm is
it's front end decision switch.  It retrieves the ftp banner from a
potential target and then switches based on the date in the banner.
It's got a whole different script depending on if it finds a date
indicating an unpatched 6.2 system from a 7.0 system.  If you don't
return one of the two dates that it's checking for, you are not going
to be attacked, even if you have vulnerable versions of the other
packages.  That's not to say that didling the banner is the answer.
The answer is to get your system up to date and keep it there.  It's
just that, in this case, the ftp service is this worm's Achilles heel.

Good. 

Because people are talking about vulnerable 2.6.0 it got me a bit confused as
the wu-ftpd-2.6.0-14.6x.i386.rpm from the RH support site _is_ of version
2.6.0.

I always liked autorpm.  I get an E-Mail telling my what I have
that can be upgraded and what is available that can be installed.  I'll
have to see if up2date has similar functionality.

If you are running 6.2, and have upgraded with this advisory,

http://www.redhat.com/support/errata/RHSA-2000-039-02.html

then you are fine.

It sounds like you have.

RedHat 7.0 includes wu-ftpd 2.6.1 which includes the security patch. It is
not vulnerable.

what client?  I was using the latest gnapster which allows port
selections.  I think the default is 6699, but you can change it in that
client at least. so it may be that they changed the port.  I didnt notice
any connects when I was on the napster servers...  but it could be a data
connection request for people who are requesting files from your
machine...
