Networking :: Cannot Connect To WEP With Empty Security Key
Jul 13, 2011
I am running KDE4 on Debian Squeeze. Networkmanager works fine, for both WEP and WPA. Connects automatically etc, no problem. The only problem exists when I want to connect to a WEP network which has an empty security key. I used to be able to connect before I used networkmanager using iwconfig and specify iwconfig wlan0 key off. I tried in networkmanager to specify both no security and WEP with an empty passkey. However, none works. Is there maybe somewhere a setting which precludes connecting because it is considered unsafe?

Is there a way to securely empty the trash bin without the need to type some shred command into consoles. My intentions is to be able to securely delete files when the 'Empty Trash' is used so to save the trouble of going to a console and doing some commands using shred.

I've installed krdc in Debian 7 amd64 desktop (with KDE), but I cannot connect to anything with it:
"Connect to" combobox is empty. Entering "rdp://Username@192.168.1.2" shows messagebox "The entered address cannot be handled". "Plugins" list is empty. "apt-cache search krdc" does not suggest any kind of "-plugn"'s that I could install. Deleting "~/.kde/share/config/krdcrc" does not work.
If launched inside terminal, it outputs this:
Code: Select allkrdc(30434)/kdecore (trader) KServiceTypeTrader::defaultOffers: KServiceTypeTrader: serviceType "KRDC/Plugin" not found
krdc(30434)/kdeui (kdelibs): Attempt to use QAction "remote_desktop_dockwidget" with KXMLGUIFactory!
What's that "KRDC/Plugin" and how to fix it.
Installed packaged:
Code: Select allapt-cache policy krdc
krdc:
Installed: 4:4.8.4-1+b1
Candidate: 4:4.8.4-1+b1
Version table:
*** 4:4.8.4-1+b1 0
500 http://ftp.litnet.lt/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
While rdesktop is installed and works OK, krdc looks like is dead-unsusable. Or at least it's usibility is hidden somewhere.
How do I make it work? Or should I report a bug?

After running
Code:
nessus-fetch --register <Activation Code>
I got
Code:
nessus-update-plugins could not be found in your $PATH
When I try to run a scan on localhost I get the message "nessusd returned an empty report".
Here's the entry in nessusd.messages
Code:
[Mon May 25 00:30:03 2009][13188] user mickey.harvey : testing 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) [13189]

[Mon May 25 00:30:04 2009][13188] user mickey.harvey : Kept alive connection
I would like to get the scan working and make sure that nessus is updating the plugins. I have been looking though the nessus documentation and tried searching on Goggle without any success.

For a month or so now, I have been enabling ssh and opening port 22. I cron'ed the start and stop commands to leave them open only a few hours a day. After a bit, I checked my logs to find that some IP or another was attempting to brute force my root account.
I took little real threat by the offense.
(1) my system does not allow root to login and
(2) it would cut them off sooner than later when my system issued the stop command.
fast forward
Today I log in to find that all of my log files, as viewed from the gnome log file viewer, were empty of entries from about noon yesterday and prior.
Though I haven't noticed anything at all out of the ordinary with my system, I would like to get more opinions on the matter. Would there be any conceivable way that this was an automatic system routine, a clean up action of something? Additionally, if I was indeed the victim of a hack, what can I do to further protect my system (keeping in mind that I do want to access my system via ssh from time to time)?

I don't know whether this is a bug or feature. But I find the fact that the Trash in Gnome doesn't delete trashinfo files a security liability.
I found in ./local/share/Trash/info thousands of .trashinfo files named exactly like the files deleted and each one contains the date of deletion.
I thought when I empty the trash bin every record of the files were removed. I understand that there are forensic ways to recover data and rm isn't very secure with journaled file systems, but forensic recovery isn't 100% and if the disk is written over several times the data is gone.
Here you have a permanent list of all the files you've deleted, without you knowing and the dates of deletion. IMO that's too much information.
Update: Weird after removing the files manually and then trying to delete files again using the trash I found no .trashinfo files, this time. So they were probably leftover files, but they didn't have a different owner/permission. Could this have been an issue and now fixed? (running Lucid)

Since I have installed Fedora 13 it seems that I can't connect to WLAN APs which aren't secured by WPA. I'm surprised about the inserts to the messages logfile:
[Code]...
Most surprising insert for me: Jul 5 20:43:21 nbtobiaslnx NetworkManager[1328]: <info> Config: added 'key_mgmt' value 'WPA-PSK' Is this the reason for my problem? I use KDE and Network Manager for managing my networkconnections.

# mkdir /mnt/test/proc
# mkdir /mnt/test/lib
# mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/test

My Host Lists of Ettercap is empty when I try to sniff my Lan. I modified /etc/etter.con, obtaining this:
Code:
# if you use iptables:
redir_command_on = "iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i %iface -p tcp --dport %port -j REDIRECT --to-port %rport"
redir_command_off = "iptables -t nat -D PREROUTING -i %iface -p tcp --dport %port -j REDIRECT --to-port %rport"
and the error is this:
Code: iptables v1.4.6: can't initialize iptables table `nat': Permission denied (you must be root)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. I lunch ettercap as root.

This is my first use of Ubuntu, but I have previous decent experience on Centos & Mandriva. I've just installed Natty 11.04 on a box that was running a mandriva 2010 - and the network is acting quite strange. When I define a static IP for eth0 through the gui, along with route & dns, it sort of works: ssh is fine, vnc too. However, I have an asterisk running on the box, and it is wild: some packets get lost in the box.
An ngrep shows the packets reaching the interface, but they dont show in asterisk !!! I've done a ufw disable, iptables is empty (why cant I service iptable restart btw ?). ip route list show decent routes (eth0 default); When I switch to DHCP, it is better, but unstable... If i plug a wifi usb stick, it seems to be better... Is there some known issues that could explain this behaviour ? The nic is a: Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8001 Gigabit Ethernet Controller

I am trying to setup a dhcp server for my internal network. I have two NICs, a modem, and a wireless router. I have my server connected directly to my modem which is providing me with Internet access on eth1 and is working fine. I have dhcp and dns setup on eth0 which is connected to my router. The router shows that it is connected to the Internet but when the router gives a client computer an IP address, the client is unable to connect to the Internet but can connect to the router. I will post my configuration files below with my current configuration.

I followed instructions for installing vidalia and polipo and everything seems to be working ok, but I cannot connect to tor from firefox using torbutton. I didn't edit configurations other than downloaded those for polipo, as described in the link above.I read that somebody got it working with foxyproxy better than torbutton, but torbutton is customised specifically to enhance tor, so I'd prefer to use it unless there issomething better.torbutton test fails with: Quote:Tor proxy test: Local HTTP Proxy is unreachable. Is Polipo running properly?Message log from tor:

I had put my computer on standby and when i restarted it, it powered off within a few seconds. I turned it back on and after that i've lost connectivity to internet on Ubuntu 10.04.
However I have VMware (XP) installed and internet/network works on that. I'm a newbie with Linux.
Here are some outputs:
I have tried to edit the connection using System>Preferences>Network Connections. I entered manual settings for IPV4, but whatever i enter there, it doesnt get reflected when i type ifconfig in the terminal window. I tried setting it to Automatic DHCP as well. Doesnt work.

I am setting up a KIOSK in a public location. The Idea being that staff will turn on the workstation in the morning and click the xguest account. Xguest will log in auto connect to AP, load Epiphany full screen and bring up the company web page. I am new to SELinux (there's the first problem!). I have a Fedora 12 SELinux box with vanilla xguest, User Profile Editor and Lockdown Editor installed. I have an SMC 802.11 NIC. I have configured the NIC to auto connect at BOOT. I configured the Lockdown Editor for Epiphany to the desired settings.
Everything works fine under the normal account. Everythign works under the xguest account except the auto connecting to the AP. I have made sure the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts have the correct settings for the AP. The AP does not broadcast the ESSID. When I log in as the xguest I have to select the BSSID and type the password in to connect the first time. After that it will work even after reboot. If I power off again I have to select the BSSID and type the password again.
I think it is something with SELinux stopping it from auto connecting. I tried adding a script to the Startup Applications settings for the xguest account and SELinux blocks it from running. How can I set up the xguest account to auto connect to the AP?
