View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Servers :: Secure Fileserver Over Internet - Opening Samba Ports Make Default Particularly Vulnerable To Penetration?
May 26, 2011I'd like to set up a fileserver for myself and a few trusted individuals. I'm computer savvy and I use various linux servers frequently for work, but this is my first time trying to setup my own. Is it possible to have a Samba server setup so it is both secure and facing the Internet? Two questions:
Will opening Samba ports make my default Ubuntu server particularly vulnerable to penetration? More than having an SSH server running? Does Samba/ can Samba be configured to encrypt traffic or is it sent plainly? If so, does Windows and Mac support this secure communication?
If not, what would you suggest? I'd like to achieve something like a network drive and at a difficulty level that my parents could use this if they really wanted to. I will be storing things like financial information and tax returns, but no weapons-grade secrets.

Ubuntu Servers :: How To Lower Shell Resolution
Feb 18, 2010I needed Ubuntu server and recklessly picked Karmic. Hardware is some regular 775 mobo with integrated Intel graphics. Monitor is ASUS VH222D. Installation went smoothly but after that problems occurred. Shell is displayed in 1920x1080 resolution and fonts are so small almost unreadable. Grub2 looks OK, standard non-fb and so does few rows of text after loading grub but soon after that framebuffer becomes active.
dpkg-reconfigure console-setup doesn't mention resolution. Some articles are leading to grub2 gfxmode but none of manuals helped. I just cannot change grub2 menu resolution to anything else than standard console fonts (non-fb). Kernel option vga=XXX is no longer working.How to lower shell resolution? Why is this automatic???
Ubuntu Servers :: SSH In Bourne Shell Script?
Oct 6, 2010I have a question about using bourne for a shell script. I have a script that at the moment performs a logical dump of my database, backups up the physical files of the database, and backs up everything within /var/www
I want to be able to copy the files over ssh to a remote server. However, the only way I am able to find examples of doing this is when you exchange keys and do not need to provide a password. How can you write a script that requires a password, not key exchange? I was told I specifically have to do it this way.

View 5 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Servers :: Run A Shell Command As Another User?
Apr 26, 2011The short version: I have to manage some virtual machines using php shell_exec function, so far I cant do this because apache is run by the user www-data and virtualbox by the user vboxuserFrom what I've read so far, I've thought of 3 possible solutions: 1.- Create a script on my vboxuser that I can call from php to manage the Virtual Machines.2.- Change the apache user from www-data to vboxuser so I can manage the Virtual Machines through php
3.- Reinstall VirtualBox, this time using www-data as my user. I'm not sure if any of these will work and I'm not too sure of which would be the best solutionNow the longer more detailed version:
I have a remote server running Ubuntu 10.04.2, in that server I have set up VirtualBox so I can run several instances of WinXP to perform different tasks. Everything is setup and I can manage the virtual machines through SSH. If I want to run them as a different user than the one that created them (a user that so far only has been used to create the Virtual Machines) I have to do sudo -u vboxuser.Now, I need to create a PHP script to manage these virtual machines (I know about phpVirtualBox, but it's not what I need). If I try to run the virtual machines using shell_exec() from php, I get no answer at all (And I have tested that shell_exec is working on my server).
Ubuntu Servers :: Use Sed In Shell Script With Apache As Sudoer?
Jul 5, 2010whether I should encounter a problem relating to output redirection when using sed from a shell script which is ran by apache? I have given apache privileges in sudoers to run the shell script and the commands within it. However the problem is that when I check auth.log all commands are listed except the sed ones, yet if I run the shell script directly from the command line they work fine and are logged.
So although I realise I probably have some permission issues to solve, I think its strange how sed commands are not being logged at all. would also appreciate any advice on apache and sudoers, am I playing with fire here? Im on lucid 10.04 server

Ubuntu Servers :: New User Shell - Tab Completion Does Not Work
Nov 30, 2010When I add a new user and SSH to my server as that new user, my command prompt is just a '$'. Tab completion doesn't work either. What I notice is that I get this:
Could not chdir to home directory /home/scaldwell: No such file or directory
$
Echo PS1 yields nothing. There is also nothing in /etc/skel. I didn't have to do anything special to get my initial user setup with the right prompt, and the second user has been added to the admin group as well. I have noticed that if I issue the command sudo chsh -s /bin/bash the account gets the correct prompt.
Ubuntu Servers :: Newly Created User's SSH Shell Looks Different ?

It also looks different on root versus the user, look:

Ubuntu Servers :: Restrict Users To Only SSH Tunnel - No Shell?
Jul 21, 2011I have an Ubuntu 11.04 instance running on Amazon EC2. I am currently using it as an SSH tunnel/SOCKS proxy. Most of my Net activity is on a Windows 7 machine running PuTTY. This setup is working very well. So well that a few of my friends have expressed interest in accessing it. Question is, how do I share this proxy, without giving away my private key and root access? I would like to limit users to only being able to set up an SSH tunnel/SOCKS proxy, with no shell access. What other security measures would you recommend for such a setup? I googled a bit and saw references to rbash and chroot. I have already changed the SSH port, and set the EC2 firewall to allow inbound SSH only from my ISP's address range. My friends use the same ISP. They would probably be running Windows 7/Vista, and PuTTY too.

Feb 25, 2010I was planning on using my VPS to grant some of my friends shells. The problem though is that I don't want them doing crazy stuff on it, like using up all my RAM or disk space. I would like to limit them to a very small 25 mb disk space, and allow them only certain application in /usr/bin like python perl irssi screen etc. I do NOT want them to be able to cd out of their home directory. I really want this to be setup like the shell provider SHellium. I can setup the FTP and SSH stuff myself.
View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Servers :: Disabled Press CONTROL-X To Restart Shell
Apr 30, 2010I'm setting up an Ubuntu server and I keep getting strange problems with my editor.I'm not sure if this is because my keyboard configuration is wrong or I screwed up the installation but regardless it's quite frustrating.
When using the movement keys (arrows and numpad) I get "[" brackets and "C"s, if I hold down or push down on the key hard a list of errors and text comes up, usually involving something that says something like:"Mount disabled" or "____ disabled press CONTROL-X to restart the shell"Similair problems are also found in vi (when in insert mode).I have been plagued with text editor problems and have need several reboots just to get out of a file, often because it just flat out stopped responding to keyboard commands.
Ubuntu Servers :: Trigger A Shell Script Upon DHCP Request?
May 13, 2011Is there a way trigger a shell script after my DHCP server successfully gives out, either a specific IP address or to a specific MAC address.I have two Xbox360's in my house that both receive IP address via DHCP reservations from the Ubuntu server.I have come to accept that without having two public IP addresses getting both to have an open NAT will be very difficult. I have decided that I am OK with only one being able to have an Open NAT at a time, but I want to change the firewall rules according to which Xbox 360 turned on first. This way I can move between level in my house and play online without having to modify rules manually.
