Ubuntu Networking :: Tor Executed From Terminal Works But Not From GUI
Apr 1, 2011
I am using Tor 0.2.1.30 with Polipo and Vidalia 0.1.15, Ubuntu 10.04. Running tor on terminal works fine, but vidalia gets stuck at 85% The message log, as I understand it, shows it getting stuck at finding the right bridges, but the terminal tor is able to connect fine... ##This is what the vidalia log looks like. The log shows me trying it two times. Apr 02 01:32:56.698 [Notice] Tor v0.2.1.30. This is experimental software. Do not rely on it for strong anonymity. (Running on Linux i686)
Apr 02 01:32:56.699 [Notice] Initialized libevent version 1.4.13-stable using method epoll. Good.

I recently purchased a Netgear WG111v2 802.11g wireless usb adapter for use with an ARM embedded device (loaded with the ARM port of ubuntu). It uses the rtl8187 driver and, when attached to my laptop, connects perfectly through NetworkManager. Unfortunately, I am not working with any ui on my embedded device so I won't have that luxury and must connect via the terminal. Unfortunately, I'm not able to connect this way on either my laptop or the embedded device (they both CAN pick up surrounding AP's through iwlist scan though). I'm able to set the ssid through
Code: sudo iwlist wlan0 essid "woot" and my access point is temporarily open (no wep/wpa). When I bring the device up using
Code: sudo ifconfig wlan0 up the light on the adapter starts blinking but I'm still not able to connect. iwconfig wlan0 outputs:

I just installed 9.10 and this is my first time using Ubuntu. I was using Kubuntu before and used KPPP with my Verizon USB720 wireless card. It's the type that gets internet access through the cell towers.I installed KPPP but when I try to start it I get this error:
Quote:
Could not launch KPPP
Failed to execute child process (permission denied)
I tried Gnome PPP and it would open but not connect. This is what is in my log files"
Quote:
--> WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.60
--> Cannot get information for serial port.
--> Initializing modem.
[code]....
After doing much searching and reading I figured out to open Gnome PPP from the terminal with sudo. When I do that it works fine. Also KPPP opens that way although I haven't tried it to see if it connects. Although this works it's not a very convenient way to connect. How can I get it to work without doing this?

From my terminal : >> libreoffice -writer gives :
But if I run it from the menu (applications->office->libreoffice writer) or with sudo it works fine. so something's happening with the permissions, I goes, but I don't quite understand what's wrong. I've tried deleting .libreoffice but this doesn't help. I'm using libreoffice3.3.2 and Ubuntu 11.04.

So when I try to connect to my ubuntu server with ssh like thisX@dell-desktop:~$ ssh servername -P 1934X@servername's password: Permission denied, please try again.but when I use putty (yes with the same port number and the same settings)it works fine. This didn't start happening until my friend did a reinstall on the server, he didn't have a clue as to why it would do this.

I'm really running into a wall trying to figure this out. I have a Bash script and narrowed down the one command that doesn't seem to work via cron and it's my pgp decrypting line. Works fine if I run the command via terminal but if I run it via cron it doesn't output anything.crontab -e shows the cronjob and it runs, creates the log file with no output. Is there maybe something I need to run as well? Permissions look set, unless the cron is running as a different user(was under the assumption if it showed up under crontab while logged into that user, then it would run as that user.

When I connect to my workstation via Real VNC Viewer 4 to Xvnc running on the workstation, and running "su -" I get authentication failure as follows:
So, effectively I cannot su when connected via VNC.
But if I'm at my workstation, I can su just fine:
Nov 18 16:24:30 localhost su: pam_unix(su-l:session): session opened for user root by xyz(uid=500)
Interestingly enough, I cannot su to my own userid over vnc, i.e. su xyz
In /var/log/secure I get:
I suspect it has something to do with PAM, but cannot figure it out.

I just installed Ubuntu 11.04 desktop on my desktop in dual boot with Windows 7.
Heres my problem, I am unable to connect to the Internet even though my wired Ethernet connection says it is connected normally. The wierd thing about this is that I also have a wireless card in my desktop and when I connect through that I am able to connect to the Internet. I am connecting to a router that is functioning as a repeater to my main router/cable modem. I have tried to solve this myself but am having no luck. Ironically, earlier today suddenly my ethernet connection worked for a few minutes without me modifying anything.
The output of some terminal commands are below.

I usually set the transfer rate for wlan on start up because I dunno any other way of doing it. I find it weird that every other ubuntu versions can do rc.local at startup, even 9.10 xubuntu, but it didn't work for ubuntu.
how can I get the computer to run the script on startup? I tried to google for the problem but I only seen people mentioning the problem not the solution.

I am a little confused with the way that networking works in Ubuntu (Lucid in particular). I switch my PC on and my network magically works (ie I dont understand what is configuring everything). I do have a DHCP server, but im not sure which process/file is configuring the interface.There is no entry for my wired interface (eth0) in /etc/network/interfaces.$ cat /etc/network/interfacesauto loface lo inet loopbackDoes this means that Network Manager is then responsible for configuring this interface? How does Network Manager configure this interface (are there config files somewhere that specify settings such as static IP and duplex)?

I have a script scheduled to run with Crontab at 5am each weekday.The script is all good and executes manually (is just a simple stop/start of a service)I have reason to believe that it is not executing according to schedule.I am looking to see when a script was last executed.The script is executing accordingly (long story short, I forgot it was Tuesday). I would still like to know how to check a last-execution time.

How can I find out which script runs and automatically mounts any usb drive inserted? This script seems to be faulty because it fails on ext3 disks but functions fine on NTFS or HFS+ disks. If I can find out which script it is maybe someone can help me fix it?

I'm trying to figure out how to launch rc.local before services like autofs is being executed during system bootup. The reason I wanted this is because I needed for my server to pickup a DHCP address from my college's DHCP servers in order to get an IP address. Unfortunately, I couldn't get an IP address any other way and the update-rc script is really confusing to use.

I've been having some trouble with the notifications on 10.04.Networking and volume popups are visible, but messages from Banshee or empathy aren't showing.
I tried the command notify-send in the terminal, but it showed nothing, unless when doing it as root.
fix or a setting to tweak in order to get full notifications back?

why a script is not being executed during shutdown. I have a script in 'init.d' that works properly from command line. It also works fine at boot. My problem is that it does not execute at all on shutdown. I am using all the standard rc.d stuff for the script. Here are my LSB tags:
Code:
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: setwebpage
# Required-Start: $network httpd
[code]....
When I check the rc?.d directories, the appropriate links are there with the proper NN. This script has to FTP a couple of files to a remote server so the network is required and the script should be run very early in the shutdown process. However, the first thing the script does is send a message via 'logger' indicating it is executing with the 'start' or 'stop' parameter. The 'stop' message never shows up in the log thus I have to conclude that it simply is never executed.

I have a .wav file that ask "what's is your name in a robotic/computer voice. Is there I way I can execute that .wav file to execute as the script itself ask "What is your name?" giving the illusion that the computer is asking the question?

I want to get a of log all the commands executed by the root user with the following details :
incoming ip
username (thru which su was executed)
time and date
all the commands executed as mentioned above.
Also if user has managed to login as root, he should not be able to disable / delete the above info. Can this info be collected at some other physical server ?
