Ubuntu Security :: What Zone Alarm And Cain And Abel Accomplish In Windows
Feb 10, 2010
I bridged a connection using ettercap and have collected a few ips that I would like to block (IP Lag). Similar to what zone alarm and cain and abel accomplish in windows.I have tried adding the ip to iptables and tried using ufw to no avail.
i've been looking around on the web as well as here on the forums for a cain and abel source code or a dpkg if i'm lucky LOL. It's getting to be a pain in the butt to go from ubu to my win7 partition for other security tools... I'm trying to look good for an internship here and this is getting to be a pain in the butt. Some people have said in outside forums there is source code and i have build-essentials installed so i figured i'd try that but i'm sitting here at almost 1am still trying to find it!
I have to deploy a server to some customers that should not be given access to the server itself. I know that nothing is 100% secure but I've searched without finding a decent answer (maybe I googled for the wrong terms ?)I need some advice about encrypted filesystem. * The server must boot without asking for a passphrase (the server will be in a restricted access area so typing a password could take a while). I can't store the password for luks in an unencrypted file so it seems a loop to me. The only way out I can see is to store the passphrase in the boot binaries (better than nothing...) but this results in more work for me.* possibly the customer should not be able to move the hard disks to another pc, i.e. reading the passphrase from some unique hardware ID. This is risky but I could add a master passphrase to be used in case of hardware replacement
[URL] When I download the .iso from [URL] and used Kana CheckSum from [URL]i saw the following md5 value 143609CA5B6BB4E5D7341117FE46D0E1 but according to this page [URL] the value should be 8790491bfa9d00f283ed9dd2d77b3906 for ubuntu-9.10-desktop-i386.iso I really don't understand why there is lot of difference in the .iso file. My instruction for those who are trying hard..
1)download the .torrent version but not the direct download if you are at indian zone
2)use Kana CheckSum from kanasolution.com to check the md5 checksum
3)Tick the "verify after write" when you burn the CD through nuro burn in windows xp
To launch easy tether I need to open 2 terminals and type some command, not all that hard, but I can I do this with one launcher? "Open Terminal and run "easytether enumerate", then "easytether connect". Once it says the connection is established, do not stop the running "easytether connect", open another Terminal and run "sudo dhclient easytether0". "
I currently have Fedora running on it's own hard drive and I have two other drives in the same workstation I want to setup as Raid 0. Is this possible and what tool can I use to accomplish this? I have a feeling I might have to reinstall the entire system to accomplish this ...
I tried searching and tried different things and have failed miserably. What I am trying to accomplish is have postfix listen on port 587. I have read that I should do this using Linux Firewall rules as to not mess with postfix config. Here's what I have in my ip6tables.
Code: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 587 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 25 However, when I restart ip6tables I get unknown arg --to-ports
I've got a samba share on a linux server, connecting to it with a windows 2k3 server via tools > map network drive. The goal is to be able to use windows to change the security of the samba share. The good news is it works! The bad news is it's not QUITE perfect:
The share is called /company. I started with the following to give everyone access to everything, set the owner of the share to administrator (my domain admin on the Windows domain), and set the group owner to domain users (group that everyone on the domain is part of):
I then mapped the drive as a regular user, and of course, can access/modify/delete/rename/create anything I want. Then I picked a folder to lock down. Let's call it /company/myFolder. I did this on the Windows server by mapping the drive as administrator (the owner), right click > properties > security tab > advanced > highlight "domain users" and "everyone" and click edit > clear all (i.e. remove all access). Go back to Linux and
[Code]..
The only issue that remains is that I am able to rename/delete "myFolder" as a regular user. I thought this was coming from the "acl map full control = true" parameter in smb.conf, but I changed it to false and verified the change and it still happens. If I remove group and world write access to /company, I am no longer allowed to rename/delete myFolder, but then I can't create a new folder. If I add group write access back in I can create files but can also rename/delete folders within /company that have --- specified for group access. Any ideas what I need to tweak to make this right?
Do to the last thread I posted got way off topic do to my bad doing , I will post it again to get the thread back on topic.I try it one last time hopefully these myths will be cleared up and this thread will stay on topic an not derail like last one.The myths going around on the internet.
1.Less than 1% use Linux and 10% use Mac Os X it is not that they are so much better but market share .The Malware makers are going windows where the market shares are.
2.Windows have more security but most people don't use it.
3.Mac OS X security is not that good , windows is better.
4.windows it has more gradual permission level than a ON and OFF like Linux or Mac OS X
I have a dual-boot with windows and linux. Sometimes if I reboot from windows into linux, I notice that when X is starting up before the login screen comes up it will flash a screenshot from Windows. Has anyone ever noticed this?
I'm looking for an easy to use alarm clock program that I can suggest to new users. The two I have tried so far have fallen short of my expectations. "Alarm Clock" from the Ubuntu software repository starts out okay, but when the alarm actually goes off, getting it to stop seems pretty unintuitive. Click on the Alarm Clock icon, then click a Stop button in the new window that pops up. Sounds easy enough except that the icon used for "Stop" is just this grey square, so for users who are not familiar with linux or this program, it isn't even obvious that it is a button. I had one user actually uninstall the thing in order to get it to shut up. Preferably one should be able to silence the alarm by click on the alarm icon (or right clicking, if a 'doze' behavior is preferred) The other one I tried was alarm-clock-applet, which wants me to locate an alarm sound on my filesystem. Uh, no.
Does anyone know of a simple, basic alarm clock system that anyone can just sit down and immediately use without having to 'get in to the head' of the developer? Are the KDE alarms better? Am I missing something about either of these programs which would make them easier to use?
As Linux gains in popularity, (as I believe it will), do you think that Linux will ever become the target of as many virus and worm threats as Windows has faced? If so, do you think that the threats will have much success?
Does anyone know what this program does and how to remove it? I did a complete removal of evolution, and deleted the .evolution folder yet this job still runs. How do I remove it to get a clean install?
I installed 'Alarm Clock' from the Software Center and would like to have said app autostarts. There is an option in Alarm Clock to autostart with Gnome but that doesn't work so I assume the reason being I'm not root.
How to autostart Alarm Clock?
Also, in System > Preferences > Startup Applications, the 'Add' asks for a command. Is this like Windows whereas I simply point it to the app I want started? I don't even know where apps are installed. Who said ignorance is bliss?
I've seen in Evolution Calendar where you can have an audio alarm in addition to the pop-up and notification. For the life of me, I cannot find that now. I am Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with Evolution 2.28.3 - the latest in the repository. I just can't find an option for audio alarms...
Does anyone have a suggestion for a *simple* calender alarm application? Something that will pop up when I open up the system and tell me "Take out the trash today!" (Actually, it needs to say; 'TAKE OUT THE TRASH TODAY, DUMMY!') I've looked at *Evolution* but it is too much application for what I need. My system is Ubuntu 10.04 OS with 3gb of RAM.
So, I'm attempting to write an alarm clock from scratch without a GUI, doing this through a bash script. So far I wrote the file that actually initiates the song, and I was trying to set up a crontab so I could do it at a certain time, making it function like an alarm clock, but it isn't seeming to work, any input on why
Code: SHELL=/bin/bash 12 5 * * * /home/angelo/music.sh That is my crontab
I'm trying to set up the Alarm Clock app to automatically launch Rhythm Box and begin playing a specific internet play lists I have there. I have one template set up to launch Pandora and I could probably get it to launch Rhythm Box but, how do I get it to launch Rhythm Box and begin playing a certain radio station playlist?
I need an alarm / reminder system for all the crap I have going on. I want one that will pop up and remind me of a given task. Sounds, bleeps, rings, bells, etc., would also be great. Doesn't evolution have such a thing? IF not, what about online options. But I really prefer sg on this computers so I can still get the reminders when I am offline.
I followed this page: [URL] that script seems good but I want to change. I want if program is running that it wakes up program on each day (example at 17:15). So I don't want to put it in to sleep but in to time waiting.
I must be overlooking something here, but I can't find out how to add "Alarm Clock Applet" to my panel. In Ubuntu Software Center, there's a picture of the program right in the panel and feature to add to panel, but there's no option for me to do this. "Add to Panel" doesn't have the application either.
I've installed Alarm Clock and was planning to use it to shut down my PC at a certain time every day. What command would I use to execute the shutdown, "sudo shutdown -P" ?
I'm running Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 and in the UK we changed from GMT to BST last Sunday (27th March) On GMT I was waking on LAN at 23:30, all was working fine then we changed to BST. What I usually do is leave the BIOS clock on GMT and change the Wake on Alarm to 22:30. I did this, shut down Ubuntu fine, but its not waking up at all at 22:30, or any other time I set the WOA to. I had this problem a few years ago on an old ASrock mobo and cant remember how I sorted it - maybe by blanking the bios, cant remember.
I have a National Instruments gpib interface PCI card on my machine. It has been working up till now.The computer was moved when I was gone, and now at start up I get two alarm beeps from the motherboard speaker, no grub menu (hidden line is commented out and time out is gtr than 0).In the past I had to lock the kernel to 2.6.32-28.55.newer kernels broke the interface...although prolly foolioshly, I did allow other system updates.
I'm using fluxbox on my eee pc 1000h and use conky to display % battery charge but (unlike my previous laptop) I don't get a hardware-triggered beep warning me of low battery.I've done a bit of searching but haven't yet found a neat software solution for either a beep or toolbar notification. Any suggestions?(I'm not wanting to switch back to KDE right now.)
