Trouble is for all the talk of how secure ubuntu is, truth is it kept getting remote hacked (I have a stalker who is messing with me) over and over so now I am going to try fedora in hopes of finally having a secure system. My question is, what steps do I need to take to try to secure Fedora 12?

I haven't really configured much on it except installing SSH (sshd) and Apache (httpd); I don't have a firewall or anything. Are there some common rules that I should follow to secure my system? I've been following this article on securing my Apache.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe want to set up a Linux server (hosting Git or later SVN repositories) which should have all stored data strongly encrypted, so that if one steals the server the data cannot be read. For example, our notebooks have all important data stored on a "true-crypted" partition.
We plan to access it with SSH private keys and only after successful login should the data be readable. The server would be located in our office, shut down at night and not be connected to the Internet directly, but only accessible in our intranet.

User can access files in both directories if he connects to the system (with ssh, login, ...).
So if he does "cd /dir/subdir1/link ; ls" he will see both files.
Now, dir1 is shared with samba (but not dir2). What I want is that users connect from Windows with \machinedir1dir2 and see both files.
Is that possible?
I've tried with follos links and wide links, but it hasn't work as I wanted.
We have a public server and it can be accessed from any where through ssh.
My question is my server should not allow anyone directly to login as root user. First he should login as normal user then he should switch to root user.
I also have another questions is there any specific linux command is there to end other users ssh session without rebooting the server.
I installed OpenSSH via tasksel and am using Webmin for administration. I'd like to be able to SSH externally and want to setup the necessary public/private keys to use in FileZilla.
In Webmin, under Servers > SSH Server I can click 'Host Keys' and see an RSA key. Is this the public or private key for my server? Do I need to copy this into a text file to import it into FileZilla on my remote PC (that I want to connect from)? Is that all that needs to be done (aside from opening the port on my router/firewall)?
Is there an automated way to set this up via Webmin?
I am having trouble trying to setup an FTP server, so i made a video lesson to show how it is done PROPERLY. I actually had this before, but it was poor quality, and i went through it a little fast; so this time it is better quality and i explain more details. You can find it here:

I am creating an FTP server using VSFTP. It will be in the wild, initially at least only functioning as an FTP server. I have the iptables config from the previous box I set up 3-4 years ago. I have also got private/public key authentication running with SSH to eliminate brute force attacks.
Here is where is my specific question. On the old server I set up something that allowed my clients to log in using accounts that were not system accounts but would translate to a single system account that was limited to FTP. I remember setting up a passwd account that had username / password pairs that FTP used for authentication.
What app is this? Is it just part of VSFTP or maybe SELInux? I really want to utilize this.
I have a blog on my site and am using htaccess rewrite rules to block all those nasty scripts from trying to execute various things mostly relating to phpmyadmin and wordpress. This has reduced my httpd error logs to less than half from before.
Am trying to come up with a rule to rewrite all calls to certain files if they are not originating from my domain, here is how it looks right now but it's not working as I can see scripts trying to hit "wp-comments-post.php" getting a 500 Internal Server Error.

I'm running an SFPT server which my clients logon to using an FTP client. at the moment each client has a user name and password.
Thus far to improve security I've disabled root login but an looking for futrhrt ways to protect it from attack, having researched using google some of the security features suggested prevent the FPT clients from connecting.
Questions:
1- what further things can i do to secure my server that still allows it to be usable for FTP clients?
2- specifically is it possible to use non login pre-share key authentication?
How i set up the server is shown here: [url]
I have to deploy a server to some customers that should not be given access to the server itself. I know that nothing is 100% secure but I've searched without finding a decent answer (maybe I googled for the wrong terms ?)I need some advice about encrypted filesystem. * The server must boot without asking for a passphrase (the server will be in a restricted access area so typing a password could take a while). I can't store the password for luks in an unencrypted file so it seems a loop to me. The only way out I can see is to store the passphrase in the boot binaries (better than nothing...) but this results in more work for me.* possibly the customer should not be able to move the hard disks to another pc, i.e. reading the passphrase from some unique hardware ID. This is risky but I could add a master passphrase to be used in case of hardware replacement

Then I did the cd command, then I did the ls command and it didn't show me anything but a line saying desktop and a few other things like pictures movies etc. so I did cd gnurobbo-0.64 and it says no such file. I have been trying this for a few times and I think I'm going crazy.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm about to install Ubuntu Server 10.04 on my home server. I have looked around, a lot, without finding a nice way to record or log all the steps of the installation.
I see two general paths of how my problem might be solved:
Is there any installation log file which I could look in to see which options I choose? It would be best if it included all steps, including partitioning and, in my case, setting up an encrypted volume with a KVM-volume inside it.
Are there any ways to record the installation or take screenshots of it? It's done using the console (with no X window system available). Maybe fbgrab could work, but I do not know how to make it available during the installation.
I could also use a pen and paper. But that is error prone as I do not have the patience to write everything down. It's my last resort though.
