RE: [Samba] [OT] SPAM

RE: [Samba] [OT] SPAM
I've been watching this thread with amusement. On one side, I see people with calm collected reasoning explaining how email works, how lists work, etc. and on the other side, I see rash, overzealous people who A.) don't want to admit that they have been doing something that most intelligent users know they shouldn't (use a critical email address for list subscriptions) regardless of past success of failure (Russian roulette is a fun game, until you win . . .), and B.) seem to want to yell at someone other than themselves to vent their frustration at winning the roulette game. I also run my own mail server with antiviral filtering on it, and can look up the daily virus volume if anyone is interested. I have a strong understanding of how these email worms (technically, these are worms, not viruses) work and can pretty much guarantee that the Swen worm (the one currently blasting email addresses) does NOT read newsgroups looking for email addresses. Outlook, however, will add email addresses from newsgroup postings to the address book (depending on configuration). The worm will then post itself to any news servers configured on the infected computer, email itself to every email address it finds in the address book and inbox (and probably other email folders) on the computer, and send itself to any IRC contacts stored on the computer. If the worm finds Kazaa installed, it will send itself out through Kazaa as well. It will also search all mapped network drives for Windows Startup folders and drops a copy of itself in any startup folders it finds. It will also try to trick the user into supplying login information for the user's email account. If it succeeds, it will scan the inbox for additional email addresses and delete any copies of itself that it sent. This information is not needed for propagation since the worm has its own SMTP engine (mail server, for those who don't recognize the correct terms) and will have already sent out at least one copy of itself to every email address it found. Changes to the way this list is handled would reduce the usability of this list. I, for one, would rather delete 1000+ copies of a virus a day for a few months (the average life cycle of these worms) than reduce the usability of such a useful list (usefulness is subjective, if you consider the price too high, don't use it) by any degree. Also, I have examined the headers of several of the copies of the Swen worm and not one of them has originated from the IP's of the samba.org servers. This, admittedly, is not a perfect test as there have been far more copies than I have actually looked at, though so far, all of the copies I have examined have come from dynamic IP ranges (generally, dialup or home broadband), not through regular servers. It would seem then, that the list itself is safe, and only by damaging usability could we reduce (reduce, mind, not eliminate) this temporary inconvenience. Sounds rather like cutting off my nose to spite my face, not a course of action I would recommend. :) Just my (rather stretched) two cents.

So, the recommended version for production system is the most stable one, 2.2.8a. I know nothing about ACL support in pre-compiled Red Hat kernels and Samba. ACL utilities (setfacl, getfacl) and shared libs (libattr, libacl) are present. Replaced e2fsck? Don't know. As to me, I prefer to compile the few mission-critical pieces of software (Linux kernel, Samba, mailserver) from source, just to know the _exact_ set of active capabilities. To compile Samba with ACL, you need also to install "acl-development" package containing libacl&libattr headers; it's present in Red Hat. Without it the "-- with-acl" compile option will provide you some control on Unix 9-bit set of rights from Windows side, nothing more.

Hi list, Update: originally i wanted to post a question, but in writing i thought of things that finally led me to the solution. This i wanted to share with the community in case it can help. Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I had no luck searching for it. I have a working Samba 2.2.5 installation on SuSE8.1. I have two users on a windows client called Torge (that's me) and Ga&ediaresis;lle (interpreted as HTML special character) You could also write Ga\"elle (TeX convention), but fact is: there is a higher ascii character in the name, that i prefer not to get rid of. I have users for the same two persons on the server called: toh and: gab my smbusers file reads something like this: toh = torge gab = gaelle ga?lle I (toh=torge) can log on impeccably to the server, while my partner (gab=gaelle) is blocked. The log says: [2003/09/29 11:57:18, 1] smbd/password.c:pass_check_smb(545) Couldn't find user 'ga211lle' in passdb. Where the 211 is written in reverse graphics. Now my question is: what should i put in the place of the question mark in my smbusers file? Thanks in advance, Torge P.S.: Answer: with some cat'ing and >>'ing i managed to put the exact character from the log into the smbusers and it worked.
