I'm using gpg to encrypt and sign a file on a linux machine.using the same keys the file is encrypted and signed on a windows machine and the file sizes are different.
I then encrypted and signed on another windows machine and again the file sizes are different. Does GPG use some random stuff from the machine during encryption?
I've installed ClamTK on my Kubuntu 9.10 installation, since it's connected to a Windows7 machine.When I ran a scan, it found 9 'viruses', but they are all within my home directory > Opera/mail/store and are either status Phishing.Heuristics.Email.SpoofedDomain OR HTML.Phishing.Bank-593.I recently synced my Hotmail into Opera, so I checked the corresponding dates in my Hotmail account and deleted the emails which I thought were related, however, after clearing down my Opera history, etc., re-booting my PC and re-scanning, the results are the same.How do I clear down these files?

Known viruses: 968595
Engine version: 0.96.5
Scanned directories: 28067

Also, my engine is 0.96.5. The latest version is 0.97. But "aptitude upgrade" can not upgrade the engine to 0.97. I understand 0.97 is still on testing. I am wondering if I can just stay with 0.96.5 and wait for the 0.97 passing all tests. if so, does it cause any security issue?
I was testing the security of my Ubuntu 10.04 64bit install by running a port scan from [URL] and I came upon some odd results. It appears that basically all my ports are closed, but only Port 646 is dropping packets silently. Furthermore, Port 80 is open.

Just got done reading one of the submissions and it's pretty good if anyone is interested in how to analyze a Linux incident involving evidence from memory and the file system.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI ran two scans in Zenmap: 1) Quick scan plus and 2) Quick Traceroute. Quick scan plus, under the Nmap Output tab, has a field called "Network Distance". The Quick Traceroute report under the same tab lists the HOP and RTT time. I was thinking that for a given server, the value for the Network Distance would be the same as the HOP field when initiating the scans from the same server, but they are not.

View 6 Replies View RelatedSet up a lab full of Lucid boxes that authenticate against the main university Sun ldap server and create local, limited, homedirs if they don't already exist.
The ldap server is freely accessible on our network and does not require authentication to do a query. Users will not be able to make changes on the ldap server from these workstations. I cannot set up homedirs of users manually - any one of 15,000 people could walk in and use one of these machines.
What I've got working so far: Authentication works, but when I log in through GDM, after a few errors, I get nothing but a blank desktop (with wallpaper and cursor). If I log in as a local user and su to an ldapuser I get assigned a home directory at /, which explains the errors; this kind of user can't write to /. I've seen posts on this but nothing that works for me.
The problem, as I've identified it: I'm using pam_mkhomedir to create home directories on first login, but I don't seem to have any way of telling pam_mkhomedir *where* to create the home directories. I've tried to use the nss_map_attribute in /etc/ldap.conf (like this: nss_map_attribute homeDirectory "/home/users/"uid), but my syntax is all guesswork - I can't seem to find anyone else trying to mangle a homedir this way.
Most either don't deal with the homedir thing at all, or if they do, they only cover nfs/smb shares.

I have tested several software to use the OCR with my HP printer. Unfortunately the software that comes with it is only available for Mac OS and Windows. I said I installed several software without success.In my search I found that the Tesseract is better OCR application for Linux.He does not have a GUI, a graphical interface, but it is possible to be done by commands, which is very boring when you want to scan several pages.The results were very unsatisfactory, at least in my language "Portuguese", in a text with 1000 words he recognized only two or three which is very little, i text with several letters, magazines, books and folders.

We have a script that another member of my work wrote using vmstat which I could not get any consistant results from. So, in an effort to understand what was going on I wrote a script using ps. Sadley after running several tests using both scripts, they do no match up at all, vmstat always gives me a much higher value. However, if I simply run the commands at any given time they do match up, therefore I believe that there is an error in one of the scripts. I am very new to linux and so Here is the vmstat script:

i am trying to set permissions on my wordpress install such that the wordpress admin can write to the files and directories in the wordpress tree. otherwise i have to do all the things wordpress does automatically by hand with vi.of course i would like to have permissions set as precisely as possible for security.at present the files are set to 644 (-rw-r--r--). my plan is to change permissions to 664 (-rw-rw-r--) using chmod. ie "chmod -r 664 ./wordpress".
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to use aptitude for package management, but nothing happens in response to my commands, even as root.
Let's say for example I want to purge popcon. According to the helpfile, I should start aptitude, become root (or vice-versa), select the package in the list and press '_' (underscore), and then it will be marked with something in the left column and a different color in the list. Then later, another command will actually do the purge.
But nothing happens. It doesn't get marked or change color or anything, and 'g' just gets the message 'No packages are scheduled to be installed, removed, or upgraded.'
What am i doing incorrectly?
I've just installed OpenSUSE. I've never used it before. I typically use apt-get to install applications when using Ubuntu; so I'd like to use it with OpenSUSE. I've read some documentation saying that I need to go to YaST -> Software and search for "apt" or "synaptic." However, both of these searches yield no results. Additionally, using the Software Manager to search for these yields no results. What can I do? When I search for something in OpenSUSE and there are 0 results, I get HTML bold tags around the search criteria where it says there are no results (as in, I can actually see the code for the bold tag).

looks like 64 bit.
But

32
Looks like 32 bit.
Which is correct?
I believe the linux of my VPS is 32 bit. Because I downloaded a 64bit mongodb, found it can't start. And when I downloaded a 32bit instead, it works well.

I scheduled a job, 'ls -a', with the at command, 3 minutes in the future. It looks like the job ran, but I cannot see the results of 'ls -a'. I accessed my mail with the 'mail' command and saw that the output of my scheduled job was message 1. I typed in '1' after the & prompt, and saw that the subject of the message was the output of my job, scheduled at the time specified with the 'at' command. I cannot see the output of the 'ls -a' command that I scheduled though. How do I see the contents of the message, and the actual output of the job.
