I installed the ferm firewall with aptitude in the debian squeeze, the ferm init script is installed to the /etc/init.d and it's enabled in the /etc/default/ferm:
# configuration for /etc/init.d/ferm
# Enable the ferm init script? (i.e. run on bootup)
ENABLED=yes
I just installed debian 8.0.0..I installed it without "desktop-environment" during tasksel, but instead installed it with "sudo apt-get install xorg gnome-core" atferwards.I want x-win to be present but I do not want it to start during boot.
Adding "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=text" to the grub config used to work but for this new debian it does not change anything. Yes, I did do update-grub2 after editing the grub file, and I also confirmed in /var/log/messages that "text" is present with the kernel command. "sudo update-rc.d gdm3 remove" also has no effect,what I do gnome starts at boot time.
I am running Lenny, but I wanted to use a newer version of rtorrent, so I am running it via schroot. I have an init.d script from the rtorrent website that would automatically start rtorrent on boot, but now I am running rtorrent through schroot, it doesn't work anymore.I believe it may be something in my rc.# folders. I seem to remember adding a command to end all schroot sessions when shutting down the ompur, and I was thinking that it might be interfering with rtorrent starting correctly.Any tips on how I troubleshoot this? Here's a file listing of my rc2.d folder:
I'm trying to build firewall on Debian with 'Firewall Builder'. But it won't let me compile and run unless one interface is set as management. There are two interfaces on my computer: 'eth0' and 'lo'
I don't want to be able to configure firewall remotely, so could I use 'lo' as 'management interface'?
I'm trying to sync my clock. I think I would like to do this by the "ntpd" daemon running. I think it should start up on boot, but it doesn't.
I have the following in my /var/log/syslog: Jul 18 23:44:14 neo ntpd[1780]: ntpd 4.2.6p2@1.2194-o Sun Oct 17 13:45:13 UTC 2010 (1) Jul 18 23:44:14 neo ntpd[1781]: proto: precision = 0.634 usec Jul 18 23:44:14 neo ntpd[1781]: unable to bind to wildcard address 0.0.0.0 - another process may be running - EXITING Jul 18 23:44:14 neo ntpdate[1194]: step time server 72.26.125.125 offset -0.505108 sec
Other posts say if ntpd and ntpdate run too close together, they cause one to think the other is locking a resource. It works to type "ntpdate pool.ntp.org" to manually update the clock. My Debian version is squeeze (6.0.2)
It works to start the ntpd daemon manually: ... sudo /etc/init.d/ntp start ... Starting NTP server: ntpd.
I am facing a problem with my AT91SAM9260 customized board. Board is almost same as the evaluation kit.
I could download the binaries ( Bootstrap-v1.16, u-boot-1.3.4, linux kernel 2.6.20) successfully to the DATAFLASH/NANDFlash in my board by using atmel SAM-BA tool with usb/serialport/jlink.
Here I describe the problem.
When I power up the board, boot strap is not jumping to U-boot location, in the normal boot sequence and board stuck with bootstrap.
But when I disconnect/connect the JTAG USB cable ( provided with SAM-BA ICE) , it's jumping to u-boot location and booting the board properly. I'm getting the same error in NAND FLASH also.
I have tried one more test case.I copied bootstrap binary at the flash location, [location which is specified for u-boot binary] instead of U-boot.bin (location: 0x8400 in dataflash), I got continous bootstrap debug messages in my console. [ So can I conclude SDRAM doesn't have any problem? ]
I installed Firestarter firewall on debian Squeeze.Now i note there is a gui available in System->Administration which apparently does not need to be running all the time - its not set up to start on boot.When I boot I notice the boot message has a line saying "Starting Firestarter firewall .... failed"When I am logged in and type "/etc/init.d/firestarter status" as the Firestarter FAQs say, I get"Firestarter is running... ... (warning)"I can run the gui manually and still same message.
I suspect this is an initial configuration bug. All firewall logs seem to be going to all three files. That causes a lot of clutter in the log files, and makes it difficult to see whether there are any serious problems being logged.
I am learning to setup firewall in my home for that i have selected four system(sys1,sys2....sys4) for testing .I have configured sys2 to act as a firewall with two NIC. sys3 and sys4 are inside the firewall . sys1 is not connected to firewall for testing purpose.
the IP assignments are follows :
sys1 : ( fedora, not connected to firewall i am thinking, But i am not sure )
what happened is that sys1(not connected to firewall) can ssh to sys4(connected,inside firewall),since the rules are written not to ssh form sys1 to sys4..
then I came to know whatever the request I give, It directly goes as sys1 --> sys4. Not as sys1-----> sys2(firewall)---> sys4 .and the firewall is not filtering and processing anything for both inbound and outbound (i think it's my mistake some where). the requests are directly going inside without firewall.
i am trying to get starting installing debian on my virtual server what is supported for IA64 and i have try'd this few different version(se bellow) and the img fail isin't boting?

i got a script from the internet to setp a centos as an gateway server for my lan. after installing the script, every thing worked fine. and in fact it does work well but what beats me is that when ever i restart the machine, upon booting and service startup, the systems hangs on starting up networking service. since i had not experience this ever before using this script, am confused as to if the script could be the cause. below is the exact script.my distro is centos 4.6

I've been trying to make the switch from windows to debian (mate), but I am utterly lost trying to find a replacement for my firewall (Outpost). I have become dependent on features like:
- per application outgoing/incoming TCP/UDP rules - per application outgoing/incoming IP rules - per application outgoing/incoming PORT rules
What i seek is a graphical firewall, (or Iptables-) GUI) that will popup a notification that a cirtain program wants to connect to the internet with a cirtain IP over a cirtain PORT and connectiontype.
It seems like FireFlier is what I want, but i was not able to get that running because it is most likely to old and no longer compatible:
(small update on FireFlier, Martin Maurer, the compiling error could be fixed by changing the order of lines 4 and 5 in server/backend.h which would then be
And although i'm still to clueless to get the rest working, [URL]....
Also from what I understand is that I should be able to achieve this with AppArmor or Selinux, but I was unable to do so. For the rest, all I could find where firewalls like Douane, that are just not powerfull enough [URL]...
I can't get cups to auto-start at boot time. Running sudo cupsd manually works fine, but I don't want to have to do that every session.This seems to be affecting lots of folks. This thread claims that bug #444597 in launchpad has a solution, but I must be too stupid to see it, and the thread is closed so I can't post there. All my rc and init files seem fine, bootsplash is off, and, of course, there are no useful boot error logs in Karmic.
I'm having a problem getting my MPD service to start during boot. This started a week or so ago. It's no big deal, just a pain. It start fine when I run the script in a terminal. I changed the start priority with update-rc.d. I occasionally get a segfault message in my syslog and messages log. Not sure what it means.

I lost power to my ubuntu box earlier today, so it didn't shut down properly. I'm now trying to start it but it keeps getting stuck at 'Starting Up' for over an hour. I've tried pressing escape to boot a different version or into recovery mode. The only difference I get is when loading a recovery mode it just puts up a flashing underscore instead of 'starting up . . .' - it still hangs there. This is a small box without a optical drive which is why I haven't tried a live CD.
I'm not really familiar with linux or boot issues.
However, many of those threads show that adding two lines to the file "/etc/network/interfaces" should solve the problem. I checked on my PC and those two lines are already there.. but CUPS still doesn't start properly on boot up...
Since a few hours I can't seem to get GNOME working. Whenever I boot my computer, I just get tty1 wanting me to log in. That works, but then I just get tty1 with a terminal... In tty7 I can see the startup checks which end with "* Checking battery state... [OK]".
Something happened to my ubuntu 10.4 - I can't see my desktop after boot. As a matter of fact, when I boot I see a message saying: Continue to wait; or press S to skip mounting, or M for manual recovery. I left it like that over night, this morning I found the logon box, typed my password and I got to an empty desktop.
I did a Ctrl-Alt-F1 and logged on there, I am looking at /etc.fstab and I see the first lines like this: proc /proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0 # / was on /dev/sda3 during installation UUID=3538bcd0d-... ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1
I guess something is wrong right from the start, some portion of the file system is not recognized anymore (or is in the wrong place) ...
I was playing around with my house mates fresh install of 11.04, was going to show him compiz, little did I realize it does not like playing with Unity with wobbly windows. So now Unity wont start at boot and I had to find a round about way of getting to the terminal to then to start Unity manually.
I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed on my pc with XBMC installed. It's set to boot into xbmc on start up and works fine. I also have squeezebox server (a music server for my network) installed and again don't have any trouble. I'd now like to get squeezeslave running, a client for squeezebox server so I added the following lines to /etc/init.d/local:
We have a setup of around 10 computers with 1 linux server... We want to convert it into a centralized system where firewall services are activated from the linux server and certain websites are restricted from acess for the workstations.. Are there any good softwares for this.. open source preferably... I'm using debian already for the web server and file server already....
My firewall keeps blocking something called CPQ-Wbem. There have been about 10 instances of this.
A machine on the network is advertising it runs, or looks for machines running, Compaq Insight Manager on TCP/2301. If the machine isn't yours or you haven't enabled Compaq's web-based remote management then silently drop it.
Now as far as i know i do not have a network, just a dsl connection. I also do not own a Compaq computer. So if someone who has some knowledge of this could you explain to me how a " network is advertising it runs, or looks for machines running, Compaq Insight Manager on TCP/2301 " . This would seem to me to be a local network thing not a www thing ?
how to configure my firestarter firewall. I have a website which requires the port 1935 to be open. I figured out how to open the port using firestarter. Is there anyway to make the port open only to this website, and not to every other website for security reasons of course.
