Mar 20, 2010When installing the latest Distro of Mint (I believe this is not much different, if at all, from Ubuntu as far as this goes) I chose to have my Home folder encrypted using the login password. This was a function of the installation. What I was wondering about was how secure this was and if I should maybe use something to do a better encryption or not.

View 3 Replies View RelatedFedora Security :: Use A Passphrase - Not A Password
Feb 9, 2010Simply, the number of possible combinations of passwords increases as an exponent of the number of characters used and as a factor of the number of characters available for use.
26 potential characters for a 2 character password results in 26^2 possible password combinations. This means that each new character added would result in an "order of magnitude" increase in the difficulty of brute force attack.
Using a phrase, complete with punctuation and capitalization is the very best mnemonic device to remember a password. Consider this, how hard is it to remember; The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
Than it is to remember, l33tsp34kp@ssw0rd
If we pretend that both of these passphrases are generated from a character set consisting of 26 characters, the first would be one of a possible 15274273784216769021564085930704478424313742483024 510976. The second would be one of a possible 1133827315385150725554176.
In short, use a passphrase not a password, they are much MUCH more secure.

Apr 23, 2009I have a system in which I do not have root access to. On that system, I have my own directory which I share with other users.

How can I delete this folder without root permission? I can't even chmod or chown it.
View 3 Replies View RelatedFedora Security :: RealCrypt Mount Folder Permission Changes?
Nov 19, 2009I wanted to create an encrypted volume that was accessible from F12 and WinXP. Using RealCrypt, I created a volume on a NTFS partition and formatted it as NTFS.
mount point: /home/user1/safe
user dir: /home/user1/safe/folder
When I run:
[root@localhost ~]# realcrypt -t --mount --filesystem=ntfs /mnt/winshare/volume /home/user1/safe
The permissions for "/home/user1/safe" change from 755 to 700 and I am unable to access "/home/user1/safe/folder". Also "home/user1/safe/folder" changes owner and group to root with permissions of 700. My guess is that this is being caused by ntfs-3g, but how to pass on uid options in this example. Is this even doable?

Mar 9, 2011I want to enable sshd from Internet, but I want to secure it as much as possible.Therefore, despite the fact that the service will run on a tcp port above 2000 to prevent most scans, I would like to :- First, force the use of a client certificate, to avoid brute force attack on my users/passwords- second force the use of a username/password to avoid someone having access to my system just by stealing my key..When I look at the configuration, it's possible to enable both, but one of them is sufficient to login, but I can't find how to make them both mandatory...

Apr 12, 2009I have F10 installed on my laptop with disk encryption enabled. When I boot the machine I get a "Password:" request on screen but can't start typing for 30 seconds or more.Presumably the OS is not ready. This means I have to wait at the keyboard tapping a key until I see asterix. It's a waste of time and frankly a bit clunky for a modern OS. How can I change the behaviour so that the "Password:" request only appears when I can actually type?

Jul 12, 2009I'm not necessarily gonna do this, but I have to know. Is there a way to make the system not complain about every single freaking password you try to use? Make it so that any regular user could make "hello" their password without complaint? Like I said, I won't necessarily do it, but I have to know if it can be done.I did some searching and found the su -c "passwd username" trick, which is working for right now (I have root access but a user account I made for a friend doesn't)... it's just irritating when it won't even let him use something like "snuh123" because it seems to think it's based on a (reversed) dictionary word. Any use of a dictionary word, even with other chars, fails

Jan 27, 2010Can't seem to do it, wondering if anyone knows how? Normally there's something in sshd_config that can be switched to true or yes to allow root login but I can't see it in fedora 12.I can login via root at a terminal no problem, just not via ssh, I get access denied every time. Also, I need to login using password authentication.I've done: 227169 but that's just for GUI which I don't really need since I rarely ever log into the GUI.I have also searched through here and mostly only found info such as above, how to enable root login for GUI, or billions of posts about how logingin as root is bad but I cannotswer to my question.DISCLAIMER: Please do not reply to this thread if all you can contribute is the question of why I need root or to put some message telling me I can do everything using su, etc, etc. Please only contribute if you can answer my question. A: My machine and a valid quesiton. B: Spirit of Linux is open, not restrictive
View 3 Replies View RelatedFedora Security :: Accidentaly Typed Password In The Terminal?
Nov 30, 2010It does happen occasionally that I type a password in the wrong place or at the wrong time when I'm working with multiple terminal windows. It's not a frequent occurrence but sometimes it does indeed occur (most recently as an argument to g++ instead of the password prompt to scp).Would you guys consider it adequate to clear the view with "clear" and the history with "history -c" or should I change my password after such a mishap? I realize that this should probably not be a problem with my computer at home as I'm the only user but when I log onto school (where we mostly use ubuntu, solaris) would the same precautions be enough?
