I need a single user ftp server on a dedicated machine which encrypts passcode transaction (and preferably everything else) and logs attempted entry. Assume forwarding port stuff / DMZ stuff is already setup.
connecting client will be either command-line tools or winscp, depending on client OS.
I'm a member of ubuntuone-android-hackers team on Launchpad, I work on Ubuntu One Files app. If you would like to see new features in the app, you can post your ideas here. I think the forums is a good and comfortable place to share ideas. We have already received quite a lot of requests via e-mail. Most notably, these have been already requested:
- secure app launch with PIN entry
- preserve folder structure when auto-uploading files
- real sync (i.e. reupload a file, that has been modified; sync down favorite folders; etc)
We continue to fix bugs and improve on what we already have, this is just to give you a place to share ideas on new features. We will select the best we can take on given available time and resources. I can't guarantee we'll implement them, I can guarantee however that we're doing our best and I'll be keeping track of this official thread.
Several of our servers that do not have direct exposure to the Internet have the following entry appearing in their respective /var/log/secure files.Are these messages harmless? If so, is there any way or reason to suppress their appearing in the log files?
View 1 Replies View Relatedyesterday I ordered some software on the Net.Early this morning, I got a call from my bank someone else tried to charge to my debit card.I called the company I ordered from to alert them and they assured me it had to be my computer security because theirs was checked, upgraded regularly and above reproach.Fortunately, the bank caught it in time and my account wasn't debited. After I assured them I didn't order anything from Bed, Bath and Beyond, the bank shut down my card and I had to apply for another.
I was shocked. You hear about it but never imagine it will happen to you. I began to wonder and worry if it was because I was using Linux and it wasn't as secure as Microsoft.I'm isolated in a very small town in West Texas so I order some things on the Net.I loaded the full version of Ubuntu "Lucid Lynx" 10.04 from a 4 disk set and downloaded all the upgrades; almost five hundred and set everything up the way I wanted. My question is: Are there programs running among the Ubuntu build to assure a secure transaction on the net or do I have to load others and a fire wall like Windows? That's one of the reasons I left Microsoft behind was the "Auntie-viral" programs took over and almost became a competing system.
I'm trying to make ecryptfs work on my GMX Mediacenter share (a service quite popular in Germany). I followed the instructions to include my mediacenter share in my fstab which works pretty well. So now I'm able to connect via Secure WebDAV as a regular user (no sudo needed). When connected, I try to create a ecryptfs transparent layer so everything saved remotely is seamlessly encrypted. Although no error message is thrown during creation, the process fails. When entering the remote share (cd mediacenter) and performing any remote command such as "ls -la", the following error message is thrown:

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm an Oracle DBA and started working for my current employer about 4 months ago. This past weekend an alert re: FS space brought my attention to /var/spool/clientmqueue (full of mail re: cron jobs) and the fact that sendmail is not running on our Linux servers.I'm told that the IT security team deemed sendmail too vulnerable so we don't run it.Aside from FS filling up and missing notification of issues with crontab entries, I'm concerned that we may be missing notification of potential issues. In other Unix/Linux environments I've seen emails from the print daemon when it experienced problems with specific jobs.
Are there other Linux facilities aside from cron and lpd that use email to advise the users of possible issues? Are there ways to secure sendmail or secure alternatives to sendmail? My primary need/desire is to make sure that emails regarding issues on the server get to the appropriate users. Secondary goal would be to have the ability to use mailx to send mail out. There is No need/desire to receive mail from outside.
we have a remote linux server and its /var/log/secureile is fully filled with unauthorized ssh users,of course they cannot able to log in successfully but they were making continuous ssh requests to log in, it some times results in server down problem. so how to secure our server from their ssh attempts.i know blocking unauthorized ip addresses can solve this problem and we can also change the ssh port numbers but what are the other possible ways of solving this.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am having a situation where I do not have DNS server (the person who has that is not me) for a few websites which are running on a reverse proxy. I recently after having a long trouble shooting hours found that my proxy pass entries look as follows
Code:
ProxyPass /app1 http://192.168.1.3:8080/app1
ProxyPass / http://192.168.1.3
ProxyPassReverse /app1 http://192.168.1.3:8080/app1
ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.1.3
If I use the entries as above then some one from internet is able to access the sites.But from within LAN people are unable to access it.
How ever if I use
Code:
ProxyPass /app1 http://site1.myserver.com:8080/app1
ProxyPass / http://site1.myserver.com
ProxyPassReverse /app1 http://site1.myserver.com:8080/app1
ProxyPassReverse / http://site1.myserver.com
then things work on LAN but from internet it is not accessible.What can be a solution in this case will putting things in resolv.conf do?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI set up my ubuntu server with iptables that only allows ssh in the input chain (and of course established connections) with only the mac adress of my laptop allowed to connect, set up a key with a long passphrase and installed pam_abl plugin. ICMP echo is blocked by default.
The only problem is i log all other attempts to connect to the server and i see a lot of traffic going to ports 445 and 5900.
My question is: Is there a possibility that these attempts could succeed and is there any way to further ensure this server?
I have been doing a whole lot of reading on any kind of home server. I want to have a secure home server that I can access from school by a domain name. At first I was looking at FTP, but I need something secure and it seemed like the software that supported SFTP has to be purchased. Then I started looking at SSH stuff, but I also realized that I want to use a dynamic DNS, so I started reading about that.
Basically, now my head is so information-logged I can't figure out what and how I should do this. If anyone could give me some very step-by-step-procedure links (or information) that show me how to set up a secure home server that I can access with a domain name through the internet that also uses a DDNS, that would solve all my problems.
