Slackware :: Multilib64 Install And Blacklist All Updates
Mar 30, 2010
I did a multilib64 install but I am new. I use slackpkg for updates and its recommended to blacklist all kernel ,glibc and gcc updates. In the past with slackware32 I edited /etc/slackpkg/blacklist to uncomment the kernel but it still updated the kernel. This time I used the command line 'slackpkg blacklist kernel', and the same for glibc and gcc. It brings up all packages in the window and askes what to blacklist. Is this all I need to blacklist? I thought there would be to many libs to list or are they lumped in the 4 or 5 listed.

Today I moved my Slackware64-current installations to multilib. I blacklisted the gcc and glib packages in the blacklist-file for slackpkg. In the blacklistfile they say:
Code:
# Now we can blacklist using regular expressions.
# This one will blacklist all SBo packages:
#[0-9]+_SBo
I have blacklisted
Code:
...
# The gcc compiler suite:
gcc
gcc-g++
gcc-gfortran
gcc-gnat
gcc-java
gcc-objc
# The GNU libc libraries:
glibc
glibc-i18n
glibc-profile
glibc-solibs
glibc-zoneinfo
glibc-debug
...
How I can use the mentioned regular expressions in order to make blacklisting more efficient?

After upgrading to Slackware64 13.1 BETA1 my USB printer stopped working. Blacklisting usblp fixed it. See this thread regarding problems with CUPS 1.4.x. It might be a good idea to blacklist it by default in 13.1, just like Nouveau, as this appears to be a problem that has come to stay...

With recent changes to Slackware I would like to suggest that /etc/slackpkg/blacklist is modified as follows:
Quote:
# kernel-ide
kernel-modules
kernel-source
kernel-headers
kernel-firmware
kernel-generic
kernel-huge
This works better than the current entry.

I just thought I would post this file since I was doing it for myself. This is the stock /etc/slackpkg/blacklist file with AlienBOB's multilib and kde 4.4.2 packages added. If I screwed something up please let me know!
Code:
# This is a blacklist file. Any packages listed here won't be
# upgraded, removed, or installed by slackpkg.
#
# The correct syntax is:

As per the subject line, the latest slackpkg doesn't honor the blacklist when using the clean-system option. It tries to make my multilib system unhappy.I fixed this by changing line 656 in /usr/libexec/slackpkg/core-functions.sh
Code:

For some reason Update Manager is not installing updates as of yesterday.I have it set to check daily and notify if updates are available. It has been working without issues for well over a year now.
Update Manager tells me updates are available and presents the list of security, recommended, and other updates. All are selected to update, but when I select Install Updates in Update Manager it returns with a Reading Package Information window overlaid on the main Update Manager window - building dependency tree then reading state information and dumps me back to the main Update Manager window without performing any update actions.

Like others here it seems I had problems with the latest -current. I can't startx, no sound, etc. I put back the video drivers and such from the 13 CD but now have a bunch of other issues, video will flash every now and then and sometimes go blank so I can only reboot as exiting xwindows and going back in its still blank. I tried booting from the 13 cd and reinstalling without formatting my root partition but that dies in the kde games for some reason and setup won't start again. I was trying to not format and loose all the updates just put back 13 but that doesn't seem to be working.

I looked at the security adviseries page on slackware.org, and noticed only 1 listing for 2010. I'm currently using alien bob's slackware-current script to make a dvd iso (x86_64.) So is this patch already applied or what? How do I go about maintaining a secure system from here? I've tried to search for clues about this but I'm a little confused (very new to slackware,) so I apologize if this question has been answered many times. Also, when a security advisery arrives, do I need to download the updated package? Or can I simply find a patch from a single source and download / apply them? What would you do concerning this issue? I guess easily applying security updates is where debian shines. I'm really starting to like Slackware though, I must admit.

After applying the 31st Jan and 1st Feb updates to -current (32 bit), alt-tab to switch between windows is no longer working in kde. It seems to lock the desktop and then after a few seconds kde goes back to the login screen. If I disable all desktop effects then alt-tab works again.

For anyone interested in testing new xorg stuff, here it is: [URL]. The good news is that this package set should work fine in either 13.1 or -current. The build box is 13.1, so I know they're compatible there; however, I'm running them on both 13.1 and -current systems, so I'm pretty sure they'll work on either. Be sure to read the NOTES file before you go digging around in PACKAGES.

I've installed those updates :
glibc-2.7-i486-19_slack12.2
glibc-2.9_multilib-x86_64-5alien_slack13.0
Now many kde3 related apps crashes, forcing me to xkill and kill PID.I can't duplicate konqueror windows anymore, using the blue "k" icon top right. The window freezes. In Slack64 13.0, i even have a 100% cpu usage.Kwrite crashes from time to time.Erasing a file can crash konqueror etc.. Should i recompile all kde3 ? Should i recompile qt3 ?

I am looking for a way to track updates or changes to open source software, in other words I want automatic notification when new releases are made.
Is there any single place or easy way to do that? Again, What I am looking for is notification when, for example, firefox ver 3.1.2 is released, or when kde releases 4.4.5, k3b makes a major change, etc, etc, etc.
Anyone have any idea how I could accomplish this?

I haven't used my VB for a few weeks however all of a sudden it refuses to work for my normal non-root user. It's almost as if it can't find libraries in the /opt/VirtualBox directory. Initially it refused to start completely so I linked the required libs into /usr/lib64 ( yip real hack. Then it started but a vm would not start, and comes up with an error about a missing lib again which is definitely there. My non-root user is in the vb group and nothing besides system updates has changed. vb 3.2.10 slack64-current.

I have a server setup that is getting repeatedly hit by the same IP address it has tried accessing my vsftp and /drupal/cron.php. For security reason I have disabled vsftpd while I am not using it. The webserver on the other hand I need to leave running.
Code:
- pam_unix Begin -
vsftpd: Unknown Entries:
check pass; user unknown: 2708 Time(s)
authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ftp ruser=Administrator rhost=211.161.251.123 : 2282 Time(s)
authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=ftp ruser=administrator rhost=211.161.251.123 : 426 Time(s)
- pam_unix End -
I would like to be able to add the ip to a blacklist. Additionally I would like to whitelist my own ip when I am working remotely, my remote location doesn't match my reverse dns and my server gives me an error at the end of the day that someone (myself) might be trying to break in. Running Fedora Core 9 in case it matters.

I want to blacklist one module in RHEL 4.5. In RHEL 5.X we can remove the module using modprobe and then blacklist it in the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist to make it permanent after reboot. But in RHEL 4.5 there is no such file like /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist. So how to blacklist a module in RHEL 4.5

I am daily getting the same junk / spam email from this sender and I see two IP's in the headers / logs of my Postfix server. I searched my Postfix logs for both IP's:
Code:
[root@mail postfix]# cat /var/log/maillog | grep "67.212.170.242"
Jan 22 05:29:30 mail postfix/smtpd[12205]: connect from civismtp.uas.coop[67.212.170.242]

How do I block / reject all email from this sender? Is there a specific section in Postfix like sender_access or client_access that I can 'reject' all mail from the above sender. What is the difference between IP's on the logs? I show 192.220.23.216 & 67.212.170.242 but can understand what the two separate IP's are for?

In this example, why does blacklist end up in the file blacklist and $a end up in stdout?
[code]...
The desired result is to have a file containing the results of lsmod which had the first word on the line beginning with snd_ copied into another file preceded by the word blacklist.

The DHCP server on a network I use specifies a DNS server that I do not want to use. Is there a way to continue to use DHCP but to modify the provided information or to "blacklist" one (of the three provided) DNS servers?
The client in question is running Ubuntu 10.04. Networking is managed by NetworkManager but I'm not wedded to that. In fact, I don't like it and wouldn't mind a reason to use something else.

Trying to stop drivers for realtek nic being picked up so I can do pci passtrhough for these devices to kvm vms later. in 10.04 and 10.10 I did this by appending to blacklist.conf as below, but in 11.04 the drivers are still being loaded. Should I be doing this a different way? or is blacklist misbehaving?
here's end of blacklist.conf:

Here is what I tried:
Since I had no aliase in /etc/modprobe.d/, I made one. I have also added entries to blacklist.conf ( even tried blacklist with out the .conf ), added entry to sysctl.conf, and added a no load to my grub.conf ( /etc/default/grub). I am still seeing ipv6 in netstat but not when I check lsmod. Below are my entries:
Code:
cat /etc/sysctl.conf | grep ipv6
#net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1
net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_redirects = 0
net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_source_route = 0
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
Code:
cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
blacklist ipv6
install ipv6 /bin/true
Code:
cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | grep ipv6
blacklist ipv6
install ipv6 /bin/true
Code:
lsmod | grep ipv6
#
Code:
cat /etc/default/grub | grep DEFAULT
GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="ipv6.disable=1 quiet splash"
Any ideas why I am still seeing service listing with ipv6?
