>>SecureTrevor<<
by BIJU KRISHNAN 16 Jul '04

16 Jul '04

Hi Trevor, "Professional RedHat 9 Linux Secrets" by Naba Barkakati has an excellent chapter 22 pg 648 for literature on how to go abt System and Network security. There is a point to point explanation on the foll topics 1. Learning a security test methodology. 2. Understanding Computer security audits. 3. A review on all security testing tools. 4. Performing risk analysis. 5. Establishing a security policy. along with the ususal encryption e.t.c. If any novice (like me) is attempting a go @ Network and System security, this one is worth a dekko. And for experts I suggest it proves as a handbook. My fav links http://www.linux-sec.net/ http://www.governmentsecurity.org/ http://www.insecure.org/tools.html Is there anyone who has info on MITM attacks...please spare a few moments to post them, Its something I have been a victim of, I hope I can do enough to take guard.

Webcams which one to use
by jtd 15 Jul '04

15 Jul '04

Which model of locally available USB webcams work with 2.4.24 kernel. I used to use the dlink duc 300 (ov511 chip), which is not available any more. The dlink DSB-C300 uses divio nw802 (or something similar) which produces a horrid black image :-( . Both of the above have 640x480 pixel resoluion@15fps. similar resolution webcam would be good but not essential (i will settle for CIF /SIF).

Hello, I have a dual boot (or rather, triple boot) PC at home, with Linux (Debian-Knoppix) as well as Windows 98 and XP Professional, and we are considering getting an MTNL ADSL internet connection. However, their FAQ (http://mumbai.mtnl.net.in/internetservices/adsl/faq.html) says that "At the user's premises, the user must have a PC with a LAN-Card and a Windows 98 or Windows 2000 or a Windows XP Operating System". So can anyone tell me if the connection can also be set up on Linux? Thanks. Harish. -- Harishchandra Ramadas Web-page: http://www.geocities.com/harish_256 E-mail: harish0 |at| gmail |dot| com

[ILUG-BOM] query on Mapping of eth device ID "eth4" to physical port
by Nasikkar,Ashutosh 07 Jul '04

07 Jul '04

Hi Friends, A brief description before i put in my queries.... :) Background :- ----------------- Assume that a motherboard has 'N' physical ethernet devices (eth devices). For each of these devices the linux kernel assign a particular ID. e.g. eth0, eth1, eth2, etc ....... These device ID's are assigned when the linux kernel has come up and done some basic initialization. Also these device ID's do not change while the linux kernel is up and running. With the same kernel version and driver version the eth device number assigned to a particular physical port does not change over multiple system reboots. Query :- --------- I would like to know a few things, with the second query being most important. 1) When i make changes to the kernel code (not related to eth devices) i need to recompile the kernel and give it a new number. For this the eth driver also needs to be recompiled with the newer number. Sometimes after compilation the kernel mapping of ethernet ID (eth0, eth1, etc ....) to the physical port changes. And this behaviour is a "sometimes behaviour". ie. If i build kernel and driver and if the mapping changes, the mapping remains same for the kernel version number. But if rebuild the kernel then mapping again changes with this newer mapping remaining constant for this newer version. 2) How does the linux kernel map the ethernet device ID to the physical port. For e.g. :- How does it detect that port 'X' will have eth4 as device ID. Ashutosh.

help: resizing root partition
by Chirag Arjun Bhangale 04 Jul '04

04 Jul '04

My partition table is as follows: Disk /dev/hda: 40.0 GB, 40020664320 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4865 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 382 3068383+ b W95 FAT32 /dev/hda2 383 896 4128705 83 Linux /dev/hda3 897 4757 31013482+ f W95 Ext'd (LBA) /dev/hda4 4758 4823 530145 82 Linux swap /dev/hda5 897 2750 14892223+ b W95 FAT32 /dev/hda6 2751 3770 8193118+ b W95 FAT32 /dev/hda7 3771 4280 4096543+ 83 Linux hda7 is my root partition. As it is clear from the partiton table there is a free space of 4281 to 4757. (It actually was a partition that i deleted) My problem is that i want to merge this free space into hda7 i.e. my root partition. I tried parted but it gives me following error: Error: Filesystem has incompatible feature enabled After that I tried fdisk and simply increased the cylinders of hda7 from 4280 to 4757. As expected the partition size(cylinders) was increased but not usable space. my question is that how can I format this partition without losing the data on it as well as able to use it completely. Please HELP............ Regards, Chirag.

Re: Re: [ILUG-BOM] Building a root filesystem

Actually Arjun, the problem is that Karim's book doesn'= t not explicitly teach the building of the root filesystem. He also uses th ird party packages like like Busybox, TinyLogin, etc. which I am specifical= ly prohibited from using. What I need is how do I manually seg= regate all the files built in the toolchain into the appropriate /bin /sbin= /usr/bin /usr/sbin /usr/lib et al. directories of my created root filesyst= em. Can you shed some light on that? Thanks, = Raseel.

ucspi(tcpclient) and serialmail usage
by praveen shinde 02 Jul '04

02 Jul '04

Hello Everybody, I have to use the ucspi tools (tcpclient,tcpserver) with serialmail. Consider the following case. I run the command on Linux. tcpserver 90.0.0.24 5000 pwd (any program) so that a tcpserver is created and waits for connections and executes the pwd command. now using the tcpclient tool a client can be started to connect to the tcpserver . tcpclient 90.0.0.24 5000 serialsmtp prefix garfield Here garfield is the host name for tcpserver. I have to use serialmail with tcpclient. The following error is given. serialsmtp: fatal: protocol violation What is the cause of this error ? how can it be rectified. So how can I use serialmail (serialsmtp ) with tcpclient? Thanks in advance, Praveen Shinde. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo!

Hey luggers, I have successfully compiled a GNU toolcha= in from scratch. My host platform is an i686 and the target I'm developing = for is an i386. Thanks to Chetan S for actually repyling to my= persistent and annoying mails. There is one more thing. All t= he tutorials , softwatres and web-sites available for building an Embedded = Linux system from scratch actually use third party packages such as a Busy-= Box, TinyLogin, etc to build the system. I;'m trying to do it = without their help. So after building the GNU toolchain, I mn trying to con= struct the basic root filesystem (in its embedded form....that is ver= y important) and then configuration of the kernel and the boot loader. I'm = googling around a lot, but its difficult to find any web-site or mailing li= st which can help me build the basic root filesystem withour Busybox and Ti nyLogin. If anyone knows any appropriate links, forward it . Thanks , Raseel. [1] [=] References 1. 3D"http://clients.rediff.com/signature/track_sig.asp"
