I want to secure my internet connection by hiding my ip with another ip so I can log to my server with 2 ips . and when someone is tracing the "fake" ip it wont affect me .
I am running an Ubuntu Server on a VirtualBox VM running on my windows machine. So I've created a self-signed certificate using the following tutorial: [URL]
From this tutorial I'm left with 3 files:
server.key
server.csr
server.crt
Then I found this very similar tutorial that has an extra bit on installing the certificates in apache: [URL] So I followed it's instructions which boil down to this:
[Code]...
So I'm thinking this should work now. However in Chrome I get: SSL connection error Unable to make a secure connection to the server. This may be a problem with the server, or it may be requiring a client authentication certificate that you don't have. Error 107 (net::ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR): SSL protocol error. IE8 gives me a typical "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" Note that [URL] fails while [URL] works fine, so it's definitely something in my ssl setup I'm thinking.
I am running Ubuntu 10.10, and I would like to use my computer to share the internet connection from an ethernet port. For example, I would like to set up my computer as a wireless access point so I can create a network that other computers can connect to for internet.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a script that tars, bzips, and encrypts a set of files to my GPG key and then (ideally) uploads the files to a backup directory on my school's web server. I want to run it daily as a cron job. Problem is, the web server only allows connections with scp and sftp.
Neither program allows specifying a password as a switch. I want to run it as a cron job, so I won't necessarily be present to type the password, and I'd like to just be able to specify the password in the script.
"Ah ha!" you're thinking. "He needs to generate a keypair and set up ssh to not require a password!" And I've found tutorials on the web that show me how to do just that. Problem there is that they all require me to install software and/or access files outside my home directory on the remote machine.
I have zero access to anything other than my own home directory on the remote machine. None. Nada. Zip. I can't install software, access files in /var or /etc, or find out anything about running processes. The local IT priesthood won't give me any information about what's running on the machine or how I can connect to it (and has made a point of telling me that they don't care for Linux users and I should stop asking questions).
I'd really like to to just be able to specify my password in the script. I understand that scripts are really just text files and that anyone who can get at my desktop computer can read them with a text editor and that this would reveal my password and blah blah blah, but I'm willing to trade that particular risk for the convenience of not having to be awake and monitoring the computer when the cron job is running.
Is there any way to specify the password in the script itself? I'd be happy using either sftp or scp (I've used them both successfully from the terminal to transfer files to this machine).
Is my ssl connection secure if I'm going through a proxy. Is it possible to craft a malicious proxy to steal/crack authentication?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI followed the tutorial found here [URL] but when I try to access [URL] I get the following:
Code:
Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to www.mydomain.com.
SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length.
(Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long)
Not sure what I might have done wrong... I have retraced all of my steps and I don't believe I missed anything.
Since important information like pass-phrases is sent via a Bluetooth link, I wonder how secure this is. I think it must be quite a weak point.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am running UFW, which is set to deny everything but SSH on port 22, OpenVPN on port 1194 and HTTPS on port 443. SSH is set to only allow private key logins, and the root account is disabled. I have AppArmor running for all of my daemons (OpenVPN, Apache2, OpenSSH) and I have Fail2Ban running.
Is there anything else I can do to secure my server from the Internet (it is directly connected, there is no NAT between the Internet and my server).
I'm having a problem with Subversion. When I try an "svn up" it gives me this error message:
SSL handshake failed: Secure connection truncated
I'm running Ubuntu 10/4 but I also had this problem with 9/10. Does anyone know what this error message means? It appears to be an SSL problem but it's not clear to me what exactly the problem is. I do not have this problem with svn on my other office computer, nor my home computer. FYI, I'm running subversion on the Regina project.
The full error message is this:
Code:
svn up
svn: OPTIONS of '[URL]': SSL handshake failed: Secure connection truncated [URL]. Although I don't think there's anything specific to Regina about this svn problem, as I mentioned, I can "svn up" from home, or from my other office computer.
I've installed (Slackware 12.2) Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client for vpn connection (it is OpenSSL based app). When I'm trying to connect using this agent I get the error

View 1 Replies View RelatedI currently run Win 7 and want to upgrade my computer to a server to accomplish the following... I have a VPN Service. I want the server machine to connect to a VPN providing a secure connection. Then, I want all the machines in the house (windows based) to connect through the server onto the VPN connection. Hopefully this makes sense. Would it be better to stick to Windows Server 2008 or switch to Ubuntu?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a simple client that opens a secure connection. My intent is to use the OpenSSL library.
I am following this tutorial: [URL]... The tutorial mentions that I need a trust certificate store called TrustStore.pem. However, I can't find that on my machine. Is there a way to generate it? I separately downloaded the source from the OpenSSL website. The source distribution doesn't have it either. There is a whole bunch of .pem files. Can I use any one of them?
I use a secure connection to reach company network from outside. There's a client application "Juniper network", which creates the secured tunnel to a company network. However, the connection never survives more than 8 seconds, when it goes disconnected with the message "Route monitor alarm". From my recent search for a solution I've found that this error is caused by a change in a route table, which violates a connection policy.
"This disconnect is typically triggered by a change in the routing table of the client machine, the change is such that the split tunnel policies defined by the administrator will be violated" - from [URL]
This is how a routing table looks before, during and after the connection attempt:
Code:
[vs@dilbert network-scripts]$ route

I'm looking for a most possible, secure solution to transfer data using rsync over Internet between 2 linux server.
I have 3 option: SSH, IPSEC and Kerberos.
Which one in your opinion should be most secure solution?
It is most certainly my fault but I am now without a sound volume control and it does not show up in the add to panel.What can I do here? Does your icon have code that that I can use or can I find the file somewhere and create a link? Alsa mixer works ok and nothing is muted and I have sound so as to play music. The Internet connection and the power connection icons also don't appear.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'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.

I have installed Fedora 11 recently. I want to share my Internet connection.
I have e LAN connection eth0 which is connected to internet.
I have a Wireless connection wlan0.
I want to share my internet connection with wireless connection.
I have two linux laptops. Currently, I'm using both of them at work, side-by-side. Now the problem is, I'm connected to a wireless router, but the wireless only works on one of the laptops. So I'm stuck with one laptop that has no access to the internet. Both machines do, however, have working ethernet nic cards. So, I was wondering if I could use the laptop with the wireless connection to share the internet connection with my other linux machine and access the internet on both of them. Or as an alternative, just use the internet on the machine without wireless and be able to switch back and forth, that would increase my productivity like 30 fold.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm an Oracle DBA and started working for my current employer about 4 months ago. This past weekend an alert re: FS space brought my attention to /var/spool/clientmqueue (full of mail re: cron jobs) and the fact that sendmail is not running on our Linux servers.I'm told that the IT security team deemed sendmail too vulnerable so we don't run it.Aside from FS filling up and missing notification of issues with crontab entries, I'm concerned that we may be missing notification of potential issues. In other Unix/Linux environments I've seen emails from the print daemon when it experienced problems with specific jobs.
Are there other Linux facilities aside from cron and lpd that use email to advise the users of possible issues? Are there ways to secure sendmail or secure alternatives to sendmail? My primary need/desire is to make sure that emails regarding issues on the server get to the appropriate users. Secondary goal would be to have the ability to use mailx to send mail out. There is No need/desire to receive mail from outside.
