If anyone knows where does ZEIGEIST put its logs. Is it in my home folder, or is it somewhere else. I have my home folder enrypted and this is really not very secure if someone can see those logs...So. Does ZEITGEIST put logs in my HOME folder or not?
View 7 RepliesI just putup the fedora15 on my PC. there are several msg coming up from selinux saying permission denied, though I am not doing any administrative activity. the PC being a workstation for reaserch. how can I know the denial is for an security intrusion attempt. how can I set conditions to see the logs of all security intrusions. how can I set exclusive msg-ing from selinux that the denial is for a security intrusion attempt.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI cannot find one single UFW event anywhere. I have researched this and see that others have trouble finding these logs too. I have looked in every /var/log there is and I can't find one event. I have UFW enabled, default deny and logging set to medium from a previous logging low(in hopes this would create more events to be seen). In terminal, UFW is shown as active. I have been using Ubuntu for more than a year now and I recall seeing UFW events with every session in some /var/logs in Ubuntu 9.04 - I'm running 9.10 now. I have also tried looking throughout the system files and have found nothing. Is UFW not working properly or could I just not be experiencing any firewall events(not likely)?

These files seem to contain browsing history:
~/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxx.default/cookies.sqlite ~/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxx.default/formhistory.sqlite ~/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxx.default/downloads.sqlite ~/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxx.default/places.sqlite ~/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxx.default/places.sqlite-journal
~/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxx.default/Cache/
Therefore I have cleared these files using an erasing program. I am wondering if there are other locations where such log files are stored for Internet browsing. I have looked in the /var/log directory and cannot see anything - for example doing a grep on http:// after browsing in Firefox does not reveal anything obvious.
whether iptables logs can be set to automatically resolve IP addresses? I am running the firewall on a network with DDNS/DHCP, and this ability would really help quickly identify hosts with suspect traffic.Failing this, I guess the simplest solution will be to simply set static addresses!
View 1 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know of any software that can monitor the Apache logs for certain phrases or keywords then send an alert when found? For example I know an attempt to hack has been made when I see log entries like this....
/admin/
/admin/phpadmin/
/phpadmin/
But by the time I see it, the attempt has long since failed or succeeded. What I need is a way for my server to alert me WHILE someone is entering these phrases. I realize there may be a "hit" to performance but my server is not that busy anyway (except for hackers).
What is happening when I log in to my Ubuntu server machine via ssh and putty. trying to understand everything, primarily securing my server.
I have specified the ssh server to listen on port 5525, and can login without a problem.
When I look at the logs though it says I connected from xxx.xx.xx.xx on port 53602.
What is happening here and why is the logged connection a different port to the one specified in the config file?
In an effort to learn more about firewalls and iptables I have left behind gui set-up tools and have setup a firewall using iptables that logs to its own file. The firewall is as follows:

:FORWARD DROP [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
:TCP - [0:0]

I have my router configured so that it drops outgoing telnet connections (and other protocols I don't use). It's a 2wire gateway. 192.168.1.65 is the internal IP of my ubuntu box.I'm trying to figure out what normal network traffic looks like and whether I should be worried by this log entry. At the time this happened I was testing out TOR (just navigating to a few sites (dell, ubuntu forums, etc.) nothing all that interesting.)

I am trying to get OpenLDAP to authenticate user logins, but running around in circles. Are there any logs produced by either client and/or server that would indicate possible reasons why it was unable to login as a user?Below is an explanation, any ideas would be appreciated, as I think everything is setup as per the various articles on using LDAP.
I have a CentOS 5.5 OpenLDAP server, and several others, some host services, some are file shares (samba).So far I have been able to successfully configure OpenLDAP to carry out all the ldap* commands from both the local server and from any of the remote servers, either via non-ssl or ssl connections. However, as soon as I try connecting any services up to it, it doesn't play ball.Back to basics, having cleared off all previous attempts at this from all machines, I have gone through the following:
Installed OpenLDAP server/client on host (plus nss_ldap).
Configured /etc/openldap/slapd.conf (see below)
Configured /etc/openldap/ldap.conf (see below)

1) THE SETUP: I have a home set-up with 3 Ubuntu computers, including an HTPC which is always on, plugged into a Verizon FIOS routerI also have a web based cam (TrendNet TV IP422W).The cam has an ethernet jack so it plugs in directly to the router.It has a simple firmware that allows users to log in via HTTP.It is also managed via HTTP.
2)THE PROBLEM: the cam does not keep logs.So I never know who is logged in at any one point. It's not a big deal, but it is annoying.I want to fix that.The router does not keep logs either.I was told I can get a linux based router to replace (or plug in) to the default FIOS router, but I am looking for something simpler and cheaper.
3)THE FAILED SOLUTION: my idea was to set up the Ubuntu HTPC to always forward a given port to the webcam via the LAN. I tried to follow the instruction from URL...as best I could, see below. 6666 is the port that the cam is listening to (the router is set to forward that port to the cam's LAN IP 192.168.1.30). 5555 is the port that I am trying to forward through the HTPC (ubuntu.local or 192.168.1.130 below, and the router is set to forward any 5555 TCP packets to the HTPC at 192.168.1.130).The iptables commands below where run on the HTPC.
My laptop Dell Inspiron 1420 running Ubuntu 10.10 has started logging itself out every 30-60 minutes or so. I am trying to figure out what is the problem. I am wondering if it is
1) a hardware problem. I have recently replaced the cooling fan which required disassembling the whole thing into small pieces. The computer has worked without a problem for one day after the repair.
or
2) a problem with a recent update. The computer started logging itself out after a recent update. This coincidence is suspicious, but I hasn't noticed anyone reporting a similar problem with Ubuntu 10.10.
Is there a way I can see what is happening through the system log? What would be the keyword I should look for in the log files?
Can I track the last updates I have applied and roll them back?
The only solution I see now is to reassemble the laptop to see if it helps.
