I want to use Vidalia to manage a TOR relay. My /etc/default/tor file references another file /etc/default/tor.vidalia. It's supposed to help manage the TOR daemon. For whatever reason, I don't have a file called /etc/default/tor.vidalia.

I recently installed ubuntu 11.04(64-bit) and have been using it for a little less than a week now(absolutely love it). I've been trying to install all the basic programs I need, and up until now, with no problem.
I've had trouble getting vidalia to work properly. Whenever I start vidalia, both the tor and vidalia processes show up. The GUI for vidalia does not. A temporary solution I found was to login as root and run it like that, but I take it that isn't the greatest idea.
I've reinstalled multiple times, both from source, building deb packages, and the tor repository.
I just finished installing and configuring 'TOR' to work in conjunction with 'Polipo' and then I realized I forgot to install it Vidalia. Am I still able to install vidalia so I am able to access the GUI to get a visual on what is going on? Or will it interfere with the TOR/Polipo team?

I'm running Ubuntu 10.10.
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.
I've downloaded Vidalia, but instead of No Configuration, I chose One-Time Restart, and now whenever I try to open TOR, it says that it is already running. I've rebooted already, but that didn't help at all. I would like to start using TOR as an experiment and to remain anonymous. Sure, there's HideMyAss! add-on for Google Chrome, but I just want to try it all out. Can someone help me?
This is what it says
"Vidalia detected that the Tor software exited unexpectedly.
Please check the message log for recent warning or error messages." code...
Everytime I shutdown/restart my computer without properly turning off the Tor network and get the following message from Vidalia:
"Vidalia detected that the Tor software exited unexpectedly"
The only way I can get Vidalia to work again is to reinstall Vidalia.
Vidalia control panel has no check box for "show this window on startup". Is there a way using linux commands to stop it from popping up or would I need to change something else?

I am trying to install the drivers for the Advantech PCI 1761 relay card, and annoyingly, I have to compile them from the source, since Advantech doesn't offer preset drivers for any form of linux beside RedHat and Debian. I have two .ko files
advdrv_core.ko
pci1761.ko
the first one is required for all advantech cards, the second one is specific to my relay card. I installed the first module fine by using:
sudo insmod advdrv_core.ko
but when I do:
sudo insmod pci1761.ko
I get the following errors:
[14192.558039] pci1761: Unknown symbol adv_process_info_check_event
[14192.558236] pci1761: no symbol version for advdrv_unregister_driver
theses are actually only two, there are like 100 sets of unknown symbol errors. The strange thing is that the first .ko file,advdrv.ko, references the same symbols, yet it installed fine. What Gives? Any ideas? I really need this module to get installed. These drivers were updated March 10th, 2010.
When attempting to check my postfix install by using telnet to send an email to an address outside my local network, I get a relay access denied error.

I currently have a postfix / dovecot server running on one ubuntu server with nullmailer relaying webmail on a different server. This is currently working except the mail server is rejecting incorrect addresses which results in the messages being stuck in the nullmailer queue on the webmail server. Is it possible to force postfix to accept and manage all relayed messages from webmail, or is it possible for the nullmailer to manage the bounced messages correctly?

I travel around a lot with my laptop, (also Ubuntu 10.04). However, my ISP does not allow me to send email via their SMTP when I am not in their IP range.
Since I have this little server I am building, I thought it would be nice if I could have my own SMTP relay. The objectives would be simple:
- I do not need a mailbox or POP server (yet).
- I wish to send email from any place in the world. I can not use a filter on IP ranges or local networks only.
- If my server could do this, I just configure Evolution on my laptop to send mail to my home IP address, using some sort of authentication and/or security/encryption (whichever is easy to implement).
- My server then just forwards my mail to my ISP. Since the server is inside the IP range, it can be handled as usual.
I have been digging through several howto's and the ubuntu server guide, searching some forums etc. Even while I don't fully grasp the things explained, I can't get the idea that one of those is "Just what I need".
Even still, if there is some other service outside my own that can do this (a public SMTP relay maybe?) I would also be happy to consider as long as it is safe and does not "eavesdrop" on my messages.
I have setup my own home server . All the applications are working perfectly except one I can't send Emails. I check weda my smtp has any errors not welll I got this

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to setup postfix (or exim, I don't mind which), so I can move away my last remaining PC from Windows.I've tinkered with Postfix for good part of a month and I can get it to accept emails using SMTP and post them to a virtual mailbox based on MySQL tables. And it rejects mail addressed to local email addresses that it can't find in the table.
First question (or problem.) I've set up Postfix to relay email it cannot deliver locally such as is the case when you send out an email. My remote host requires authentication. How can I set this up?
Second question: I want to force my clients to use either AUTH, TLS or SSL, and not allow anonymous connections (to prevent an open relay server.) How do I set that up without interfering with the smarthost setting? The smarthost login is not one of my clients, it's a pre-determined login and password that is solely used for the email relaying aspect.
I've tried googling this, and am having trouble finding something that doesn't end up being dizzying or confusing.
I was wondering if anybody could provide me with a concise, conclusive answer/guide.
I have a set of servers which require redundant SMTP relay. The first two of their SMTP relays are their own SMTP servers, and as such, are not dependable in the event that their network/servers go down. Their monitoring software runs on their machines as well, and uses the SMTP servers they themselves host.
I need to set up an external SMTP relay box that they can use to relay their monitoring alerts/admin notices in the case that their mailservers go down.
I have a company exchange server with pop/imap support @ my disposal but, unfortunately, that box runs Windows and does not permit any changes to services or additional software to add for the purposes of relaying clients.
So now, I need to create a dedicated linux box that can act as a relay to send email coming from the monitoring/admin/alert software in case their first two smtp servers have gone down.
