Ubuntu Security :: Enigmail Not Working After Upgrade?
Nov 13, 2010
I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10. This was a clean install, so all packages are up to date.
I'm using Thunderbird 3.1.6 with Enigmail 1.1.2.
Thunderbird works OK, but if I try to create an encrypted message, I get an error saying that the Enigmime module is not available. When I checked the Enigmail 'About Open PGP' details, it showed the following message:
Running Enigmail version 1.1.2 (20100630-0917)
Warning: Enigmime module not available
ERROR: Failed to access Enigmime service!
Enigmime Service not available

For the life of me I can't get Enigmail to install on Thunderbird 3.1.6.
All I really want to do is digitally sign my emails for security reasons. Can you recommend some other add-on for TB that would do the trick?

Aptitude has upgraded Icedove to version 3.0.4 today on my squeeze-amd64 system. Debian's Enigmail package is conflicting with that version of Icedove, though, and won't install therefore. I can't install enigmail as an Icedove add-on either, because the add-on is telling me that the Icedove build type "Linux_x86_64-gcc3" ain't compatible with it.

I just migrated from debian testing to ubuntu 10.04 since the newly introduced thunderbird 3.0.4 did not work with enigmail anymore and i need that to read about half of my e-mails. Now, it doesn't work on ubuntu either. I have the version (of the distribution) 1.0.1 of enigmail installed. In the testing version i also deinstalled it and downloaded the version given by the addons. Still didn't work.
If i start from command-line, i get:

Saying Enigmime-Service is not available. Usually i get a window saying the same thing each mail i open.

I just installed Ubuntu 9.10 amd64 on a laptop for my parents. They use SeaMonkey with Enigmail for their e-mail. They complained that they couldn't read their e-mail.
I did apt-get install enigmail.
Here are the versions that are installed:
enigmail 2:0.95.7-1ubuntu2
seamonkey 1.1.17+nobinonly-0ubuntu1
Unfortunately, enigmail didn't show up in SeaMonkey. I looked at the files it installed. It looks like it only points Thunderbird at enigmail, but not SeaMonkey.
How do I get enigmail to work with SeaMonkey? Is there another package I can install? Or do I have to manually move around the files?

I no longer have access to my private key as it has been deleted. I have however the revocation certificate and the public key (as it is on a keyserver).
My question is:HOW DO I REVOCATE A KEY?
Excerpt from the Enigmail manual:You can use the revocation certificate that you generated in advance (or at least you should have done so) to invalidate the key pair. Select File Import keys from file from the Key Management window and choose the ASC file containing your revocation certificate.
Send the revoked key to your contacts to warn them not to use it any more. If you published your public key on a keyserver, remember to upload again the revoked key to it.I have done this.I import the revocation certificate, I get that this was performed successfully.I am then unable to select "Revoke key" from the popup-menu (by right-clicking).I assume I am supposed to select "Revoke Key" at some point, and that simply importing the revocation certificate is not sufficient?I proceed to upload the key to the keyserver, hoping that it has now been revocated.But when I then delete the public key locally and proceed to download the same public key again from the keyserver, it is still there, and there is no mention it has been revoked.

I cannot read html in emails or in Firefox.It was working fine until I tried to modify the message composition settings in the Preferences menu.I was trying to make it so that I could forward messages in HTML to send to a colleague his flight itinerary.I had set all my messages to be composed in plain text by default with Enigmail.A Google search page for example will only show images but no text is rendered. I can see the blue underlines for links.
If I highlight the webpage and copy it to the Notepad, I can read the text. So the issue isn't that the pages aren't loading, but they are not displaying correctly.The same problem is also now present in my email.Please help! I don't know what to do short of reinstalling Ubuntu and I would rather not.I am on version 9.10 if that helps.

I have established that there is a BIOS virus in this machine (I have basically done every test that can be done) And I found the flashing utility for upgading and everything, now the only problem left is installing it Whenever I try this happens.....
Code:
./BIOSUpdate/FTS_FlashBIOSUpdateLinuxBootDisk_500110_1005782.SH
Flash FirstBIOS Update Diskette
V5.00 R1.10.2164.A1
[code]....
Now I did that while logged in as root....
sudo ./BIOSUpdate/FTS_FlashBIOSUpdateLinuxBootDisk_500110_1005782.SH
I also tried above command logged in as root and the 'normal' admin account. the usage instructions that I obtained from the manufacturer are: The BIOS Update File is a .sh file (Shell Script), which enables you to create a bootable disk to update the BIOS.The script only works if there is a C-Compiler installed at usr/bin/cc and the user has write access on dev/fd0 (e.g. if not filed as Root).

what a horrendous piece of software. Ive been at it 3 days trying to do something that ought to be simple and everytime i solve one problem another problem arises. at first I removed the old clamav 9.5 or something. I got the latest ubuntu release btw, and Clamav used to work when i first installed it in the previous ubuntu release. anyway, it asked me to upgrade, so since synaptic doesnt have the latest, i downloaded from sourceforge. I did the whole ./configure gave me errors like need build-essentials-- which i then did, error: need zlib.dv--- I did that one too. Now two more errors that i need to fix so I can compile it.

I setup a remote web server yesterday evening, which had Centos 5.3 on it. This went well, and I did this mostly over vnc, to get a GUI. However, I hadn't realised that there was a pending cron job to 'yum upgrade'. So, come 2am, 5.3 turned into 5.6. I carried on the install today, but after some time (I'm not sure exactly how or when), I lost the ability to run any GUI system config tools that required root login. I also lost the ability to run anything graphical - emacs, for example, when I was already root in an xterm.
/var/log/secure isn't telling me anything. It claims that it's running the config tool on my behalf, but nothing happens. If I try to run emacs, I get a message saying that the X server isn't responding. Could this be related to the upgrade? It feels like a PolicyKit problem - I've seen something similar on 6.0 for remote access over vnc - but 5.6 isn't running PolicyKIt.

I'm having trouble getting CSF working with Hamachi. I know Hamachi uses ham0 but has to use eth0 to establish a connection to the VPN servers. When I turn on CSF, hamachi seems to die but I opened the ports in CSF (443,12975,32976,17771)... I keep getting login fail when start Hamachi up. I'm guessing this has to deal with CSF/iptables but no clue on how to setup those rules to work with Hamachi.

I have a fiberoptic broadband 20MB synchronous pipe at my home. Over summer at my place of employment its pretty much dead for 3 months so when I'm not busy I play around on my home server. I have my 20mb pipe going directly into my wrt54gl, from there I have a wired connection going to my server (Centos 5.3 recently upgraded to 5.5 through updates.) It serves as a file server(Samba, SSH). My wrt54gl handles natting port 22 to my server. I have my wireless AP setup to hand out leases from .2-.20 and my server has a static of .100. Dyndns.org handles my name resolution via their free account method.
I have a Mac Pro, iMac, Macbook, and a Toshiba Laptop with 64bit 7 running off wireless along with our cell phones, and my XBOX 360 also is wired directly for the gaming speed. I use all of the computers around my home to access the samba shares via unc path for file sharing and or working on projects. I had originally planned to upgrade the wrt54gl with a cisco e3200 or an e3000 but unfortunately I've come to find out dyndns and the e lines of cisco wireless AP's dont work with dyndns and get banned. So I would have to install the daemon on my server and put it as a directly connected server to my WAN link and install a second ethernet card and pass traffic through my server for the rest of my home which I am not going to do.
All of the previous sentence because it would update dyndns with a 192.168.x.x address since its not directly connected. I use a combination of putty.exe and vnc viewer to tunnel 5900 through port 22 to my server. So from anywhere I am at I can access my screen securely and then rdp or vnc to the desktop of my local LAN computers. This allows me to only have port 22 open. I've been looking at my ssh logs and noticed I have been getting hit alot with ssh scans. I want to implement an iptables firewall on my linux machine just for the purpose of further securing port 22. I dont necessarily need natting on the iptables firewall but all I need is ssh in and out, web in, and samba out to local ip's only.
For SSH this is what I want. I want to allow SSH from any IP but if it tries to login more than 3 times in one minute I want to block that IP for a full minute before it can try 3 more attempts. I also would like log to a file but have been having issues getting that to work as well. That way when I review logs and I see that an ip tries three times and then waits a minute and tries three more, etc... I can permanently block that ip or range of ip's by adding it to the iptables script. Here is my current iptables script and it doesnt seem to be working for me. I have played with this and read for almost two weeks and still cannot get it to work correctly.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# In order to use this iptables firewall script you must have iptables installed. You also must be using a 2.4.x series Kernel, with iptables suppport compiled into it, which is standard for most newer linux distributions.
# If you need help compiling iptables into your kernel, please see our kernel Compile/Upgrade Guide located at [URL]
# Once the script has been edited with all your relevant information (IP's Network Interfaces, etc..) simply make the script executable and run it as root.
# chmod 700 fw_rules.sh
# ./fw_rules.sh .....
# Our final trap. Everything on INPUT goes to the dropwall
# So we don't get silent drops.
$IPT -A INPUT -j dropwall

see many threads / websites about how to configure iptables. They say if you use these
rules it will allow http traffic. But they don't work. I like to deny all then allow specific ports open for traffic.So far I tried the script to flush and update my iptables rules, trying to open port 80 and 53 for http and DNS traffic:(I made the script executable, with $ iptables -L -v I can see that the rules are changed after I run the script. )
Code:
#! /bin/bash
iptables -P INPUT DROP

So I activated the Firefox profile:
Code:
And restarted Firefox (even rebooted), but it doesn't seem to be working. When I open Firefox I am able to perform a "Save Page As" in locations I shouldn't be able to, like my Desktop or Pictures folder.
The following command says the Firefox process is in enforce mode:
Code:
Of the following lines, the only directory which is "rw" is /Downloads, why am I still able to write to other places?
Code:
OS: Ubuntu 10.10
Can someone with an active Firefox profile do this simple test for me? Click File -> Save As and try to save somewhere the Apparmor profile shouldn't let you, and let me know the results.

a cup of days I'm trying to find any working free VPN service. Without success. [to run Windows in VM and use service which works in Windows is no solution for me - it is pathetic and it takes too much system resources] Everywhere are many questions. but no answers. All tutorials I read are old and nothing works.

I just recently installed Tor again on my new Natty install along with Vidalia. It was working initially, but for some reason it has ceased to function within the last 24 hours. When I start Tor (either from the command-line or Vidalia) and go to check.torproject.org, it says that Tor isn't running. (I don't use Torbutton with Firefox, if that makes any difference. I use FoxyProxy, but the settings look fine to me. It was working only yesterday.) I've checked the config files for Polipo and Tor, and I've checked my Vidalia settings more times than I can count. It all looks perfectly satisfactory.
I'm sure that it's not my firewall, Tor/Polipo configurations, or Vidalia settings. When I launch Tor with Vidalia and check the logs, everything works just fine and it says I'm connected. The only thing I can think of is that it might be a FoxyProxy issue or a problem with check.torproject.org, but the settings for FoxyProxy look okay and check.torproject.org hasn't malfunctioned in the past.
I've purged and reinstalled Tor, Vidalia, and Polipo and restored their config files and settings to the defaults, but still to no avail. My current malfunctioning Tor configuration is identical to my old and functional one, so far as I can tell.
