TARPIT target in iptables
by Barry Brimer 04 Sep '06

04 Sep '06

Has anyone been successful at using the TARPIT target in iptables under CentOS 4? I am using CentOS 4.3, fully updated with iptables-1.2.11-3.1.RHEL4 and kernel-2.6.9-34.107.plus.c4 Doing a locate on TARPIT returns: # locate TARPIT /lib/iptables/libipt_TARPIT.so This makes me think that the TARPIT target would be valid, however when I try to use it, I get the following reponse: # iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j TARPIT iptables: No chain/target/match by that name I am following the example located at the Netfilter website for rule creation: http://www.netfilter.org/patch-o-matic/pom-extra.html#pom-extra-TARPIT I have *NOT* rebuilt my kernel, or any tools because on the surface, as it does not appear necessary. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Barry

Updating Centos Machines
by Rajeev R Veedu 04 Sep '06

04 Sep '06

Hi, I have few machines with Centos 4 I 386. Are there any programs which manage the updates centrally sitting on an intranet? I would like to avoid down loading the upgrades individually for each machine. I am looking for an open source version. Thanks Rajeev

Backspace key is sending Delete after update to 4.4 (tcsh issue?)
by Alfred von Campe 04 Sep '06

04 Sep '06

Maybe it was always sending Delete and I didn't notice it, but I have had the following in my .tcshrc file for ages (without realizing it): bindkey -b ^? i-search-back Before the update to 4.4, hitting the backspace key at the shell prompt deleted the previous character. Now it activates the search backwards function as instructed to do so by the bindkey directive. The question is, what changed to cause this? I never realized I had that bindkey statement (I have never used the search backwards function). Is this a change in tcsh? Has something changed in the X server? Here is the output from xev when pressing and releasing the Backspace key: KeyPress event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x2800001, root 0x48, subw 0x0, time 1593248, (136,112), root:(179,193), state 0x0, keycode 22 (keysym 0xff08, BackSpace), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (08) " XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (08) " XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 28, synthetic NO, window 0x2800001, root 0x48, subw 0x0, time 1593358, (136,112), root:(179,193), state 0x0, keycode 22 (keysym 0xff08, BackSpace), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (08) " If I remove that bindkey command from my .tcshrc file, the Backspace key removes the previous character as expected. However, hitting Backspace in vim inserts ^? into the file (with or without the bindkey setting). Anybody else seen this? I've removed the bindkey statement from my .tcshrc file, but it's still annoying me in vim that I can't hit Backspace to delete the previous character... Alfred

Is it better to rebuild or update my notebook for 4.4
by Robert Moskowitz 04 Sep '06

04 Sep '06

Wow! With all the conversations here, and some things on my system, I am seriously thinking of taking another drive, install 4.4 on it, and then move my /home partition (I planned for such eventualities by putting /home on its own partition). Couple of questions: I did my current build with a ks.cfg on a floppy. Can I use the same information for 4.4 as I did for 4.3? That is none of the packages are version specific it seems. How can I figure out what I have added and add that to my ks.cfg? yum listgroup and yum list and compare to the content of ks.cfg? Is jre supplied by sun in this release? I really have a mess with Firebird. It is not recognizing the java plugin. I am going to go over my install notes again....

SELinux Strict Mode
by Leonardo Vilela Pinheiro 04 Sep '06

04 Sep '06

According to http://www.redhat.com/magazine/006apr05/features/selinux/ there is a package named selinux-policy-strict, which contains a series of rules for correctly handling many situations (software) when using strict policy. Does CentOS have this package available ? If not, can someone make it available through Centosplus or Addon, for example ? This package is not part of the upstream main release, but according to the link above it is made available on their website for subscribers who want it. Anyway, I have just tried Fedora 4 package selinux-policy-strict-1.27.1-2.27.noarch.rpm. It might work, as it's just a package containing rules, but it's list of dependencies is incompatible, so I'd better leave it alone: rpm -Uvh selinux-policy-strict-1.27.1-2.27.noarch.rpm warning: selinux-policy-strict-1.27.1-2.27.noarch.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2 error: Failed dependencies: kernel >= 2.6.11-1.1219 is needed by selinux-policy-strict-1.27.1-2.27.noarch libselinux >= 1.23.5-1 is needed by selinux-policy-strict-1.27.1-2.27.noarch policycoreutils >= 1.22-2 is needed by selinux-policy-strict-1.27.1-2.27.noarch Thanks -- Vilela

by kai 04 Sep '06

04 Sep '06

I'm having problem connecting to my isp with my sangoma s518. Everything seems to run smooth and wanrouter are training to connect....but forever.. Now, to test the connection i mounted up my standard nic and my old dsl router, to establish a standard basic pppoe connection..... and I can't with centos. I follow this standard setup: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/sysadmin-guide/… tested on two different centos installations, but no. I spent 4 hours I think and needed two minits on my debian installation. Both rp-pppoe and ppp are installed, please someone tell me what am I missing before I totally loose it :-) ? kai # tail -20 /var/log/messages Aug 29 21:40:35 localhost pppd[21465]: pppd 2.4.2 started by root, uid 0 Aug 29 21:40:35 localhost pppd[21465]: Using interface ppp0 Aug 29 21:40:35 localhost pppd[21465]: Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/4 Aug 29 21:41:06 localhost pppd[21465]: LCP: timeout sending Config-Requests Aug 29 21:41:06 localhost pppd[21465]: Connection terminated.

When using 4.4 to install on gigabyte GA-M51GM-S2 motherboard basically an Nforce 410/430 chipset then network is not initially detect to perform a network install. It let me attempt to manually select a driver but I do not see the driver in the list. After installing the network works and the forcedeth driver is loaded. Is there a way to get this driver detected or manually loaded? THanks, jerry
