Gentoo Forums

Definitely the community. The last post I made before this one was years ago and I can still see the community helping people and having fun simultaneously. :)

I still remember browsing the forums in links (or lynx...I can't remember anymore) when I first tried building it and I had removed windows ...

I was thinking primarily of the situation after I'm booting from the hard drive. But perhaps even then there are no services that allow for an attack. The first thing I did after this point was to install shorewall, but there was some sort of problem with the install and that took awhile.

Unless ...

I tried another distro on a lark and it installs to it...(Ubuntu Server 7.10). However, I'm much more a fan of Gentoo (kinda more of what I know). Figuring what they loaded different is a challenge though. I think I've tried loading all I could find from lsmod on the working setup to get it to read ...

Booted from the LiveCD:

I keep getting "Buffer I/O error on device i2o_hda, logical block #" (the # goes from 0-3 each time I try to access the drive).

Organization ID : 0x0028

was there ever a solution to this? I've just hit the same problem. >.<
I never solved it, and I just live with it. Just curious, what equipment are you seeing this problem on: a Lifebook or something else?

I never did upgrade my firmware, because I never got the flashing tool to work (don't ...

I just grepped over my log and have about 2,000+ pages of attempts ranging back from August of this year.

All of them lame dictionary attempts. Does reporting these IP's to their respective ISP's help anything?

sometimes but not often. I generally report those IP's to them anyways...might as ...

I can change it to listen to another IP. The question then becomes, what specific IP should I be setting it to listen to, and for that matter, why is the default config 0.0.0.0?

Is sshd already running? check your processes to make sure.

If by that you mean that maybe I have more than one ...

It's probably best to set it to listen on a specific IP that you have instead of 0.0.0.0.

Is sshd already running? check your processes to make sure.

this may sound silly but I just tried it and it seems that maybe I shouldn't have tried it while using ssh..

lol how do you mean? just connect to the new port :-P

Mine's on 22000 and the scripts cut way back...of course I have other methods where it wouldn't work anyways ;) But it keeps the ...

what's the listenaddress set to in the /etc/ssh/sshd_config ?

any firewalls running?

christsong84

phpmyadmin.bigjobbies needs to be in your hosts file to it will resolve properly...that'd be the first thing to check.

This might not be helpful, but I do recall there being a /etc/init.d/apache2 zap to forcefully kill it. I'd say go through your /var/log/apache2/error_log and see if it's segfaulting or something.

zap for any service in init.d is to reset the status...e.g. if the service died but it didn't ...

Might want to test that it's not hardware related also...try swapping with another NIC from another computer and see if that affects anything.

When I try to map a drive to the server using a windows machine, I get prompted for username and password continuously, even though the information I provide is correct. Does this mean that access is denied, or does this mean that my linux box is not handling the authentication properly?

I have (an) open account(s) on my system. I put them there to see who would login and wait and see what they try to do. I just don't get why people are so scared. They shouldn't be able to get root access from the account. I have it set up with limits and outgoing firewall so they can't use an IRC ...

I assume the /etc/issues.logo file contains what you want displayed? Simple but always check those things

either that ot the people at the sites fixed their code

obvous I know but always good to check...cups is running right? (/etc/init.d/cupsd status)

export USE=http

before you do emerge, if you want that flag only temporary.

or even easier...all one command

Code: Select all

# USE="http" emerge -pv echoping

just uses that flag for that command only

Can anyone tell me why on Earth anyone is running a damn SSH server publicly?! For goodness sake, if you need admin access to your server outside then install yourself a damn VPN to do it such as OpenVPN or an IPSec one.

If you're behind a firewall that restricts outgoings that blocks VPN ...

Well, actually, using ACCEPT_KEYWORDS is really not recommended. In any case whatsoever.
Huh? I thought I'd read most of the docs on gentoo.org, but somehow I missed that policy. Could you point it out for me?
If not, you may want to change that sentence into: "I do not really..."

another way would be install a spare NIC into the DB server and theWeb server and give then a direct line between them?

yup...that's the gist of it. It's two seperate commands to browse and serve...smbd is for serving...smbclient is for accessing.

You would have to purchase it and use their installation methods.

or download a trial and install via their methods
