FreeNX : forward audio from server to client ?
by Niki Kovacs 10 Mar '10

10 Mar '10

Hi, I setup a FreeNX server with a GNOME desktop, and I can access it from a client with the NoMachine client. Everything is running fine, and now I only have two problems left : audio and printing forwarding. I'll follow the "only-slay-one-dragon-at-a-time" rule and take care of audio first. Did anyone manage to forward sound with FreeNX ? Here, server and client are using CentOS. And yes, I did check the little "enable multimedia" checkbox on the client, but to no avail. Whenever I play a sound in the client session, it comes out on the server speakers. Any suggestions ? Niki

strange su behavior

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I have a strange su hehavior on a CentOS 5.4 32Bit installation in a VMware ESXi virtualizied environment: If I am root and want to change the user to a non-root user, the system prompts me for a password: [root@halifax ~]# useradd test00 [root@halifax ~]# su - test00 We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things: #1) Respect the privacy of others. #2) Think before you type. #3) With great power comes great responsibility. Password: [test00@halifax ~]$ logout [root@halifax ~]# su - test00 [test00@halifax ~]$ logout [root@halifax ~]# At this test procedure I just hit the enter key at the password promt. Do you have any idea for this behavoir? I expect to do so from root to any account _without_ being prompted for the password.

IPSec VPN Setup?
by Ski Dawg 10 Mar '10

10 Mar '10

Hello Everyone, I have been tasked at work with setting up a VPN connection from our server to a client's network. The only problem is that I have never done anything like this before, so I am not sure where to start. We are running CentOS 5.4 on our server. I do not yet know what the client is running for their VPN, the only thing I know of from the client, is we need to use IPSec for our VPN connection to them. I have been googling, and have found quite a bit of information, but it is a little overwhelming, as I am new to setting up a VPN. Is the a "standard" method for doing this sort of setup that I am missing so far? If anyone has any quick pointers to get me started, that would be greatly appreciated. -- Doug Registered Linux User #285548 (http://counter.li.org) ---------------------------------------- Never trust a computer you can't throw out a window. -- Steve Wozniak

Exim VS Postfix (no flame wars please)
by Rudi Ahlers 10 Mar '10

10 Mar '10

Can anyone, who has used both Postfix & Exim please share some experience with me? Which of these 2 did you prefer to use, and why? cPanel uses Exim (and AFAIK, only Exim), VirtualMin seems to use Postfix by default and often times when a custom server is installed a client doesn't know which to use so we recommend Exim. But, what are the differences between these 2, from your experience, if you don't mind telling me? I have used Qmail on FreeBSD 4.8 last and don't even consider this as a good mail system anymore, so I'm not even looking at it right now. -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers SoftDux Website: http://www.SoftDux.com Technical Blog: http://Blog.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532

Filter web content in a LAN ?
by Niki Kovacs 09 Mar '10

09 Mar '10

Hi, I installed a network of five desktops in a small town hall, all running CentOS 5.4. The machines are publicly, and the mayor asked me to find some solution to effectively filter web content, as the kids' first reflex is to visit the interesting bits of the Internet first, from satanism to porn. One of the machines will be set up as a router anyway, since the public computer room gets its internet access from the town hall, and I've decided to make another subnet for it. Any recommendations for that? Niki
