I configured SuSEfirewall2 with no open ports on a openSUSE 11.1 box.
When I list firewall rules (iptables -L -n) the first rules in the INPUT chain are
Code:
2nd and 3rd rules are ok, allowing outbound requests. But how about the first rule? To me it looks like it accepts anything incoming hands down. I can't believe it, do I read this right? In such case the first rule short-circuits all subsequent rules on this chain.
Is this possible that a process running on a remote-host only inform nagios when some thing is wrong. Rather then nagios-monitoring-server checking through NRPE every so often. Reason is I want to add too many alerts in the application. And I don't want a whole list of ok messages.
Can anybody have an idea of an ftp client code using raw ftp commands.
OR Can anybody tell me how to turn off passive mode using raw ftp commands. PASV is the command which turns on passive mode but there is no such alternative of active mode. I have already tried using pasv_enable=NO in vsftpd.conf but that is not working.
I'm having difficulties with uploading files to a CentOS-server with vsftpd. I have the exact same configuration on a Fedora10 and there I have no problems...
I just remotely updated my uncle's Ubuntu 10.10 desktop to 11.04. My uncle has no computer skills, so it is very important that I troubleshoot his problems using VNC. After completing the 11.04 upgrade, I was not able to connect to him via VNC. After some fiddling around I was able to connect by turning off the confirmation option in the Security section. We are now using the password security option. The problem is that my uncle does not have any security against my peering eyes.
I tried reinstalling Vinagre, but that didn't help. Is it possible to get the confirmation option working again somehow?
I have a server machine that is running SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11. I set up a mysql server there. Now I want to access this mysql server from my laptop. I used the following command,
> mysql -h 12.246.5.70 -u davidehs -p
I found if the firewall on the server machine is running, I can not connect the mysql server from my laptop. If I stop the firewall first, and the do the connection, I can access the mysql. how to keep the firewall running and allow the remote mysql incoming requests?

I found that if any usual user is logged into a NDS-tree, then _local_ root has full access to user's network shares, including the user's home directory located on remote Netware-server. Is it by design or have I missed something? Nevertheless in windows local admin has no access to network resources mounted of any other user. If you runas shell (as admin) then admin in principle can't "see" network shares which were mounted (connected) by other users - they are accessible ("visible") per session.
I was setting up a new 11.4 system and disabled ip6 as we don't use it. After that I couldn't get X11 forwarding working. After searching around for a while, I found this topic [URL] ssh-x11-forwarding.html which at the end mentions enabling ip6. Magically, after doing that and rebooting I can now do X11 forwarding again. Just seems strange that IP6 is needed for X11 forwarding.
OS: ubuntu10.04 LTS running on latest oracle virtualbox. This works: I have opened a ubuntu one account. And I can log into that account. But I have to do so by: clicking 'ubuntu one' in top bar, and click 'account' in prompt that appears. Shouldn't log in take place automatically? Being logged in I'm able to make new folders. And appearently able to enter them (they are empty I quess) If I try to upload a file clicking 'upload file' in ubuntu one. A prompt appears and I choose the file to upload and click 'continue'. The prompt says "uploading" but nothing happens. If I choose a document folder and click 'mouse click right'. And then click 'sync with ubuntu one'. It prompts that it syncs the folders. But nothing happens.
I installed OpenSUSE11.4 yesterday.The dual boot option works.The wireless works in win 7 but I cannot get it enabled in SUSE.Is there a reason why the keyboard keys will not work to enable the wireless.I have an acer laptop.
When I tried to log in this morning I couldn't until I enabled Java scripts in my Opera browser. This must be something "new and improved". Could someone confirm this? I would prefer "old and lousy" rather than open up my computer to the world at large.
I have set up a simple find and delete script for files older than X days. The problem is that some of the files that are send in this share are transfered from an archive server and creation/modified date remains the same when copied and the age of them could be a year ago or older and they get deleted over night by the script.For performance reasons the raid is mounted with noatime in fstab.Do you see any solution to this problem except enabling atime?I'm thinking at some more advanced script that writes the list of added files once a day and marks them for deletion after some time.
i work in an office with individual p/c's (all with windows xp) connected to a windows server. i have installed opensuse 11.2 on my work's p/c (as a dual boot) but have no idea what to do so that i can access files on the windows server. can some kind person point me in the right direction.

tring to run an ftp server on default ports with port 10100-10199 as passive. Using vsftp. But the ports refuse to open what the heck am I doing wrong? see screen shot. oh using karmac, now.
I just installed open Suse 11.3, and I cannot SSH my school. Upon further investigation I could not even ping any machines outside my local area network. Ironically I could nmap machines outside my local area network.
How does one transfer music from a MTP device to the Music folder? Or upload music from the MTP device to programs such as RhythmBox, Banshee, etc.? I have tried using Gnomad2 to no avail and I have exhausted my self searching the online Ubuntu community forums and doing searches on search engines regarding this subject reading through countless article of users trying to get Linux system to recognize or mount their MTP devices.
My system does recognize and mount my MTP device (Creative Zen Micro) and the Music Players (RhythmBox, Banshee, Amarok, VLC, XBMC) all access and play the music without any problems. I just want to transfer or copy the music from my MTP device to my system.
I pushed the browse button and selected the first picture, but I was unable to select all of the pictures. This happened again on an email attempt to do the same thing.
In the gnome environment, I am able to select the first then hold down shift, and select the last pic and all the ones in between will be selected. I expected this behavior when selecting for upload, but it didn't happen. I had to select each one, one at a time and upload each one.
I tried making a folder to upload the whole folder and that would not select at all.
I have set up a very basic apache server to host my own website (have not set up sql or database or php yet) and I am trying to find out how to fpt or copy my website. I am creating the site in windows and need to know how to transfer it to the server, preferably into the /var/www folder directly.
I successfully connected to my office's (Windows) servers, so usually I can browse for files via Places. But when I want to upload a file for example as an attachment in gmail, after clicking the browse button, only the local drives and folders are visible in the file upload window. Is there some way to tell my browsers (Chromium and FF) there are more drives in life? (I'm using Maverick Meerkat). (And I'm not sure the problem is my browser or my settings or anything else..)
I've got several large files sitting in my linux hosted account that I need to upload to my S3 account. I dont want to download them first and then upload it into S3. Is there any way I can "upload" it via the linux command line environment? Or access it via a website working with lynx?
Whenever I used to start up a window would open asking me for my password. No problem. One day I clicked cancel and it has never come up again, when i start up the ubuntu one logo switches to updating folders for a bit and then it switches to the default but with a little red x on it. I haven't been able to get it to connect. I can place files into the folder on my computer but they don't show in my ubuntu one account folder also. Also I heard, that soon we'd be able to upload folders instead of file by file is this true?
Firefox grays out and doesn't unfreeze until the entire upload is complete.I can't do anything else on the internet while this is happening.This didn't bother me until now, because I need to upload some pretty high quality pictures to Flickr, and it takes about fifteen or twenty minutes to do so.I'd like if the pictures could simply upload in the background while I do other stuff, instead of completely freezing my internet usage in the process.I don't have a problem downloading files quietly in the background not even large files so why can't I upload files without freezing everything up? Is this normal, or is there a fix for this?
