Ubuntu :: SSH Restrict Public Key To A Single Username?

Apr 29, 2010

I set up SSH on a server running Ubuntu using rsa key authentication. I want to allow a friend of mine to log into the server with restricted access, so I created a user account named "guest" with its own home directory and ensured that it has no root access. I created a new pair of keys and added the public key to my authorized_keys, but when I was testing SSH I noticed that not only could I not log in as guest, I could use the key to log in as my own account and gain root access via sudo. How can I restrict specific private keys to only be able to log in as certain users?

Red Hat :: Files Have Owner As Uid Number Rather Than Username?

Nov 18, 2009

On my RHES4 I noticed a load of files which had owner set as the owners uid rather than the actual username - is this usual behaviour ? On a similar system the same files actually have the username as the owner.It's just causing me issues as I have changed the users ID and now some thing's wont start meaning I have to manually do a find and chown on the system.

Networking :: Max Number Of Concurrent TCP Connections

Feb 3, 2011

How do I find the maximum number of concurrent connections (in any state)? I'm running RHEL5 2.6.18-194.26.1.el5. Also, does tcp auto tune affect the number of concurrent connections or is it mostly used for dynamic buffer size allocation?

Security :: Limit The Number Of Ssh Connections?

Dec 13, 2010

Dist: Fedora 14
SSHD: OpenSSH 5.5p1

I need to limit the number of ssh connections a user has. All the users are using tunnel only so their shell is set to /sbin/nologin The logins do not open a shell they just create the tunnel so /etc/security/limits.conf has no effect on them at all.

I tried setting 'MaxSessions 1' in sshd_config but either that doesn't not do what I expect it to or it plain does not work as even with a normal user I was able to open an unlimited number of sessions. I need a good secure way to limit each user to 1 ssh session without them having a shell but Im unable to find a solution.

CentOS 5 Networking :: Configuring For Large Number Of Tcp Connections?

Jan 24, 2011

i've got a select based application that wants to support a large number of mostly idle connections. the code is java and works on windows, suse enterprise linux, mac os x. it does not work on centos 5.5 (32-bit, 2.6.18 kernel, 1G of memory).

i've read and followed the directions in various articles about tuning linux for large numbers of connections (including the C10K problem), and gotten the number of sockets up to 3200.

these didn't make any apparent difference:

[URL]

on windows, i can get up to around 78,000.

on suse enterprise linux (a few years ago), i got up to 90,000. that's where i got bored and stopped.

on my mac laptop with os x (snow leopard), i got up to 10,500.

i have used ulimit -n 10240

my current goal is 10k sockets.

the test is that i'm opening one socket at a time until it fails. when it fails, many of the sockets which have already been opened also fail, in one giant cascade. sounds like a buffer / memory problem.

each group of 64 sockets gets a thread to manage select calls for them. thus i'm only using around 61 threads total when it fails.

Security :: Policy That Limits Connections On Port - Encapsulates Total Sum Of All Connections From Hosts?

Jan 21, 2011

Is it fair to say that connLimit and hashlimit are very similiar on Linux i.e. while hashlimit caters to limits for groups of ports, they both set the connection rate limit per host? How in IPTables, do I configure a policy that limits connections on a port that encapsulates the total sum of all connections from all hosts? i.e. I do not want to allow more than 6000conn/minute for port range that is the sum of all connecting hosts?

General :: How To Restrict Use Of A Computer?

Nov 22, 2010

Suppose that some person is insomniac because of a bad habit of chatting on the IRC every night until 3AM. That completely ruins this person's life because he is unable to wake up on time to attend his exams, because he will be fully exhausted everyday and will feel depressive.

That person is conscious of this bad behaviour, and would accept any help including installing a software on his own computer granting me admin privileges to install it.

Do you know of such a software that ideally would: Would prevent use of the computer at certain time ranges, let's say 11PM — 6AM Would gracefully shutdown the computer at the beginning of that time range (not killing all the applications brutally), and shutdown it if the user attempts to switch it back on Would warn 10 minutes beforehand Could occasionally be disabled if I give a one-time password to that person?

That person uses Linux, and I am curious of knowing what is available for that purpose. It is kind of a parental control, but not for a child.

General :: Restrict A Program's R/w Rights To Nothing?

Sep 15, 2011

Under Linux, I would like to be able to launch anything from command line in a "safe" environment, i.e. be assured that it can't read or write any file on my computer, and even better if it couldn't access the network.I thought about creating a user with reading rights only in the current folder (and nowhere else), and su to this user to launch the command, would this work ? And what about the network ?

General :: Restrict SSH User To Connection From One Machine

Jan 4, 2011

During set-up of a home server (running Kubuntu 10.04), I created an admin user for performing administrative tasks that may require an unmounted home. This user has a home directory on the root partition of the box. The machine has an internet-facing SSH server, and I have restricted the set of users that can connect via SSH, but I would like to restrict it further by making admin only accessible from my laptop (or perhaps only from the local 192.168.1.0/24 range).

General :: Restrict Output To Display One File Each?

Jul 27, 2010

I use 'grep -Ri "mypattern" .' to search for all files in the current directory recursively that contain "mypattern". But this command returns every single occurence, so that if a given file has several occurences of the pattern, the screen fills up pretty quick. More than likely, there's a way to restrict the output so that it only displays each file once, no matter how many occurences it contains, but I couldn't find how to do it.
