protecting multiuser systems from bruteforce ssh attacks
by Eugene Vilensky 22 Aug '09

22 Aug '09

Hello, What is the best way to protect multiuser systems from brute force attacks? I am setting up a relatively loose DenyHosts policy, but I like the idea of locking an account for a time if too many attempts are made, but to balance this with keeping the user from making a helpdesk call. What are some policies/techniques that have worked for this list with minimal hassle? Thanks! -Eugene

tar and gunzip help
by ML 21 Aug '09

21 Aug '09

HI All, I have a directory tree that when the user un-gzips/untars it does into /opt by default. The directory tree is like: ugui | |-- <misc files> |-- source |-----framework |------ <misc files> so when unzipped I want to end it with /opt/ugui and all the stuff below it. How do I do this? Can I also issue one command that will unzip and untar the archive at the same time? (I know I can, I just cant get it right) Thanks! -ML

CentOS 5.3 Anaconda nic device ordering
by Mark Watts 21 Aug '09

21 Aug '09

I have a bunch of HP BL465c G5 blades, with additional dual-port network adapters. The onboard interfaces use the bnx2 driver, while the expansion card uses tg3. All 4 interfaces are detected by both Anaconda and the installed system, but Anaconda is reversing the ordering: Anaconda: eth0 Card 2, Port 1 eth1 Card 2, Port 2 eth2 Card 1, Port 1 eth3 Card 1, Port 2 BIOS and Installed Kernel: eth0 Card 1, Port 1 eth1 Card 1, Port 2 eth2 Card 2, Port 1 eth3 Card 2, Port 2 The main problem I have is that the ifcfg-eth* files have the wrong HWADDR lines in them for the actual network cards. dmesg shows the interfaces in the correct order. I've tried, unsuccessfully to use the "device eth bnx2:tg3" syntax within my kickstart file, as suggested here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/NetworkIssues#Mixed_NIC_Cards_and_Dr… If I just use the device line in my kickstart, this doesn't appear to have any effect on the device ordering at all, and using "noprobe nonet" just stops anything from being detected at all. Is there any way to get anaconda to load the drivers in a different order on CentOS 5.3?

What are some policies/techniques that have worked for this list with minimal hassle? Hi Eugene, Depends on the number of users (as you mentioned "mutisuser" ) And how strong you want your system to be protected. If its not a couple of thousands, i would suggest: Disabling password-login alltogether, and use keys only. On the other hand, you can also demand that all connection must be made by using a vpn-connection (openvpn/ipsec). After that you can be assured that any attempt is from a local user. Both are a much stronger protection than allow/deny or firewall-mechanisms Hans ______________________________________________________________________ Dit bericht kan informatie bevatten die niet voor u is bestemd.

Hi all, I've got a Centos 5.1 kickstart that I must continue to use. How can I update the kick start image so that it recognizes Intel gigabit 82576 nic? BTW, I compiled the driver I need and have this igb.ko file. How do I incorporate that into my initrd.img file that I see on the kickstart CD that is probably my kickstart boot OS. Thank you very much in advance. aurf -

DNS Server Recommendations
by Hugh E Cruickshank 20 Aug '09

20 Aug '09

Hi All: I am looking for some possible recommendations on the handling of our internal DNS services. First some background... Until recently our entire network was located within a single facility with internal DNS services provided by our CentOS 4.7 (using BIND). While I had problems with DHCP/DNS communications it was basically working. At the beginning of the month we moved the production servers (a couple of RHEL5.3 boxes with a Windows 2008 server) to a new facility connected to the old facility via a VPN. We are still running with our DevSys as the DNS server but I would like to make the two locations at least partially independent. I have been doing some research (probably enough to be really dangerous to myself<g>) and it looks like I need to setup a master/slave setup. Here are my questions... 1. Is the BIND master/slave the appropriate approach? 2. Can I have each subnet be a master for itself and a slave for the other subnet? 3. Any pointers to applicable docs/examples? 4. Can you recommend a "front end" for BIND (we have webmin installed but I have yet to start working with it)? Any and all thoughts, suggestions, criticisms gladly accepted. TIA Regards, Hugh -- Hugh E Cruickshank, Forward Software, www.forward-software.com

what is RAID "background initialization" ??
by mcclnx mcc 20 Aug '09

20 Aug '09

we have DELL server (CENTOS 4.X) with MD1000 connect on it. One of Raid5 (internal 4 disks) has hard disk bad and I replace it. I saw /var/log/messages have following entry: ======================================= Aug 18 15:33:20 host1 Server Administrator: Storage Service EventID: 2049 Array disk removed: Array Disk 0:11 Controller 1, Connector 0 Aug 18 15:34:09 host1 Server Administrator: Storage Service EventID: 2052 Array disk inserted: Array Disk 0:11 Controller 1, Connector 0 Aug 18 15:34:09 host1 Server Administrator: Storage Service EventID: 2065 Array disk Rebuild started: Array Disk 0:11 Controller 1, Connector 0 Aug 19 00:42:58 host1 Server Administrator: Storage Service EventID: 2124 Redundancy normal: Virtual Disk 0 (Virtual Disk 0) Controller 1 (PERC 4e/DC) Aug 19 00:42:58 host1 Server Administrator: Storage Service EventID: 2092 Array disk Rebuild completed: Array Disk 0:11 Controller 1, Connector 0 Aug 19 00:45:53 host1 Server Administrator: Storage Service EventID: 2127 Background Initialization started: Virtual Disk 0 (Virtual Disk 0) Controller 1 (PERC 4e/DC) ============================================= My questions are: 1. why after "disk rebuild" there have "background initialization"? 2. is all kind of configuration (e.g. RAID0, RAID10, ...) need perform "background initialization"? 3. if I run heavy application, will it hurt "background initialization" and "disk rebuild"? Thanks. ___________________________________________________ 您的生活即時通－溝通、娛樂、生活、工作一次搞定！ http://messenger.yahoo.com.tw/

Funny stuff in SELinux -- /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.4GxqM1
by David McGuffey 20 Aug '09

20 Aug '09

Received this SELinux warning: Summary: SELinux is preventing ld-linux.so.2 from loading /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.4GxqM1 which requires text relocation. Detailed Description: The ld-linux.so.2 application attempted to load /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.4GxqM1 which requires text relocation. This is a potential security problem. Most libraries do not need this permission. Libraries are sometimes coded incorrectly and request this permission. The SELinux Memory Protection Tests (http://people.redhat.com/drepper/selinux-mem.html) web page explains how to remove this requirement. You can configure SELinux temporarily to allow /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.4GxqM1 to use relocation as a workaround, until the library is fixed. Please file a bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi) against this package. Allowing Access: If you trust /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.4GxqM1 to run correctly, you can change the file context to textrel_shlib_t. "chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.4GxqM1'" You must also change the default file context files on the system in order to preserve them even on a full relabel. "semanage fcontext -a -t textrel_shlib_t '/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.4GxqM1'" Fix Command: chcon -t textrel_shlib_t '/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.4GxqM1' Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:system_r:prelink_t:s0 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:lib_t:s0 Target Objects /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.4GxqM1 [ file ] Source ld-linux.so.2 Source Path /lib/ld-2.9.so Port <Unknown> Host desk.mcguffeyfamily.net Source RPM Packages glibc-2.9-3 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.5.13-68.fc10 Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted MLS Enabled True Enforcing Mode Enforcing Plugin Name allow_execmod Host Name desk.mcguffeyfamily.net Platform Linux desk.mcguffeyfamily.net 2.6.27.29-170.2.79.fc10.i686 #1 SMP Fri Aug 14 21:11:41 EDT 2009 i686 i686 Alert Count 1 First Seen Wed 19 Aug 2009 08:43:01 PM EDT Last Seen Wed 19 Aug 2009 08:43:01 PM EDT Local ID 194f2933-b29d-4605-9248-a056af793e4d Line Numbers Raw Audit Messages node=desk.mcguffeyfamily.net type=AVC msg=audit(1250728981.756:551): avc: denied { execmod } for pid=7313 comm="ld-linux.so.2" path="/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.4GxqM1" dev=sda2 ino=1733603 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:prelink_t:s0 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:lib_t:s0 tclass=file node=desk.mcguffeyfamily.net type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1250728981.756:551): arch=40000003 syscall=125 success=no exit=-13 a0=bd0000 a1=6a000 a2=5 a3=bf974f60 items=0 ppid=7297 pid=7313 auid=500 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=pts0 ses=84 comm="ld-linux.so.2" exe="/lib/ld-2.9.so" subj=unconfined_u:system_r:prelink_t:s0 key=(null) A few minutes later I got the same warning but it was about SELinux is preventing ld-linux.so.2 from loading /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.#prelink#.1brWwM which requires text relocation.

Updated livecd building tool
by Patrice Guay 19 Aug '09

19 Aug '09

I updated the livecd-tools package from version 013 to 014. This update introduces new interesting features like : - support for Xen kernel - built-in md5sum into the resulting LiveCD ISO - a new API See https://projects.centos.org/trac/livecd/wiki/GetToolset for instructions on how to get this updated toolset. Since it is a major update, I expect some bugs. I am looking for feedback from people interested in respining their own LiveCD kickstart files with the new tool. As usual, if you encounter a bug or would like to submit a patch, create a ticket from the CentOS LiveCD project page: https://projects.centos.org/trac/livecd -- Patrice Guay patrice.guay(a)nanotechnologies.qc.ca

replacing permissions on uploaded windows files
by Dave 19 Aug '09

19 Aug '09

Hello, I've got a CentOS box and users are putting Windows long files on it, files with " " and " - " in their filenames. I'm trying to adjust the permissions as well as user and group membership and i'd like the changes to be sticky. On the tld i've set permissions of 2755 and am trying to batch convert the files and subfolders in it. I've done this: find tld -type f |xargs chmod 644 {} \; find tld -type d |xargs chmod 755 {} \; Both of these are failing due to the spaces and dashes. I've tried enclosing those {} in quotes, no good. Has anyone done this with shell or perhaps perl? Thanks. Dave.

Optimizing NFS over loopback
by Ruslan Sivak 19 Aug '09

19 Aug '09

I have set up a local NFS server and I'm accessing it over the localhost interface. Here is my /etc/exports file: /data/vm 127.0.0.1(rw,no_root_squash,async,no_acl,wdelay,no_subtree_check) /data/iso 127.0.0.1(ro,no_root_squash,async,no_acl,wdelay,no_subtree_check) Here is the relevant /etc/fstab entry /dev/sda3/data ext3 defaults12 Things are working, but seem pretty slow. I'm getting about 10mb/sec. I was wondering where the bottleneck could be? Is there a way to optimize the NFS service for better throughput? I am accessing over 127.0.0.1 Thanks in advance, Russ

LDAP useradd command?
by Eric B. 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

Hi, Is there an equivalent of a useradd for systems that are using LDAP user management? I know I can build an LDIF file and import it, but it is a bit of a pain to do it manually all the time. Is there not an easier / faster way? Thanks, Eric

FireWire in CentOS 5.3
by Michael A. Peters 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

I am being given a digital camcorder. It uses Mini DV tapes and either connects via typical RCA cables (IE to a tv) or via FireWire. I don't have the brand on hand, but I was told it can be ripped to DV like any standard FireWire camcorder (I believe dvgrab will be sufficient). I just installed an older FireWire card I have that I used at one point in Fedora for my iPod. It was a PITA back then because sometimes an update to Fedora would break the kernel module, so I ended up just using USB. That was some time ago. I scrapped that computer but kept the cards, and have now installed the card in my current computer in hopes that I will be able to go from the camera to HD in preparation for editing / transcoding (to theora) for the web. lspci reports the following info: 01:08.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB12LV26 IEEE-1394 Controller (Link) What is the current state of FireWire in CentOS ? Will there be a need to build a custom kernel I boot into when I want to attach the camera and rip digital video from it? If it matters, I'm 64-bit. I assume I can always plug the camera into my DVD recorder attached to my TV and slip then rip the content from the DVD-R in CentOS but I suspect I'll get better quality going straight from camera to hard disk as I believe the above method is digital to analog to digital, and I believe using dvgrab also results in higher resolution to start with. On the subject of hard disk, I'm probably going to buy another disk for ripping the content. I can go SATA II internal but I'm a little worried about heat since my home is not air conditioned, would an external FireWire drive be a good option or am I better really better off going internal SATA II? The card (and camera) are original FireWire 400, not the faster FireWire 800 that's been out for awhile now. Thanks for any suggestions.

WebDav on CentOS?
by Dave 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

Hello, I'm trying to set up webdav on apache on centos. My web area has dav on set, it's permissions are 775 owner of the apache user and group of the webdev group which i put users in who can write to the area. As a user locally logged on to the machine i can cd to the area and create content though it is owned and has a group of the user who made it i don't think this is what i want. Whenever i try to connect via webdav i'm informed that a new folder can not be created. Here's some output any help appreciated. Thanks.

Kernel NULL pointer vulnerability
by Marcus Moeller 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

Hi all. Julien Tinnes and Tavis Ormandy from the Google Security Team have recently found a Linux kernel vulnerability which affects all 2.4 and 2.6 kernels since 2001 on all architectures. Please read the announcement on LWM: http://lwn.net/Articles/347006/ for further information about the vulnerability and the exploit which has been provided by Brad Spengler (you will find updates on his twitter site). The only workaroud that is known to me atm is to disable the affected kernel modules (which should be handled with care as some of them may provide necessary functionality in your operating environment): echo "alias net-pf-3 off # Amateur Radio AX.25 alias net-pf-4 ipx # IPX alias net-pf-5 off # DDP / AppleTalk alias net-pf-9 off # X.25 # alias net-pf-10 off # IPv6 alias net-pf-23 off # IrDA alias net-pf-24 # PPPoE alias net-pf-31 off # Bluetooth" >> /etc/modprobe.conf Best Regards Marcus

KVM - missing dependency
by Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu 18 Aug '09

18 Aug '09

Hello Everyone, I've installed kvm from the "lfarkas" repo on CentOS 5.3, as per the CentOS wiki page. I now want to install the virt-manager package, but yum is giving me this error: Error: Missing Dependency: python-virtinst >= 0.400.3 is needed by package virt-manager-0.7.0-5.el5.x86_64 (lfarkas) I can't find that package anywhere in that repo. So, where do I get it from? BTW, I would have asked this on the CentOS virt list, but that list is really quiet. Regards, Ranbir -- Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu Linux 2.6.27.29-170.2.78.fc10.x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux 21:14:54 up 1 day, 22:11, 2 users, load average: 0.07, 0.20, 0.21

will C5.3 support a SmartArray 6i 'out of box', or does it need drivers to boot from this? I am advising someone else remotely and don't have the hardware handy to test.

How to create a tun-device with CentOS packages only?
by Andreas Rogge 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

Hello List, I've got a somewhat weird question. Let me tell you what my intent is first: We're running a set of Dell boxes with CentOS 4. Some of them use OpenVPN. As we need to monitor the system status of these boxes, we use the Dell supplied OMSA package. As it turns out, OMSA totally breaks if you've got one or more tun devices configured. AFAICT Dell denies support with that issue, because OpenVPN is a third-party add-on. Now instead of discussing with Dell for hours, I'd like to reproduce the issue without OpenVPN which brings me to my question: How can I create a tun device without using any add on packages using only software contained in CentOS? Regards, Andreas -- Solvention Egermannstr. 6-8 53359 Rheinbach Tel: +49 2226 158179-0 Fax: +49 2226 158179-9 http://www.solvention.de mailto:info@solvention.de

Bash Help
by Joseph L. Casale 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

I am trying to write a script that can pass cmd line args into an executable it runs, I need at least 4 args, but I need to pass the rest to it in the script if they exist. $@ doesn't help because I use the 1st and 2nd etc, so how do I elegantly handle passing args 4+ if they exist on the end of the command I call? Is there a simple way without constructing the command to execute on the fly by analyzing $# first and building it everytime? Thanks! jlc

advice needed about "554 Too many recipients"
by Rudi Ahlers 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

Hi all, A client of ours just requested to increase the max_recipients in Exim to 300, since he keeps getting "554 Too many recipients" error when sending a marketing email from MS Outlook. Before you tell me to use Pine / Mutt / etc to send plain-text emails via mailman, this isn't an option. I would like to know, what are the implications of increasing the default 100 to 300? If 300 email recipients were added to the "To:" field, does it establish 300 connections to the SMTP server, or not? In the Exim documentation (http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch14.html#SECID105) I found this: "If this option is set greater than zero, it specifies the maximum number of original recipients for any message. Additional recipients that are generated by aliasing or forwarding do not count. SMTP messages get a 452 response for all recipients over the limit; earlier recipients are delivered as normal. Non-SMTP messages with too many recipients are failed, and no deliveries are done. Note: The RFCs specify that an SMTP server should accept at least 100 RCPT commands in a single message." But, this doesn't tell me if it will have a performance issue with the server, or if other mail servers will have problems with our mail server sending the email to so many recipients in one go. Can someone give me some pointers on this one? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Hosting Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532

OT: Strange message in root e-mail possiablly hacked!!! Not sure??
by Lee Perez 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

Morning all, Little back ground. Running CentOS 5.3 fully update. I basically run this as router and gateway for home network. I have two(2) winblows machines hooked up. I am running samba for shares. I opened up root's mail this morning and found this strange little comment : Connections Denied: lib/access.c:check_access(327) 58.239.84.158 : 1 Time(s) smbd/process.c:process_smb(1062) 58.239.84.158 : 1 Time(s) So I started looking around in /var/log. I looked at my secure logs and saw nothing out of the ordinary. I looked in samba and found a log file 58.239.84.158.log. I opened it up and it said the following: [2009/08/15 06:31:34, 0] lib/access.c:check_access(327) Denied connection from (58.239.84.158) [2009/08/15 06:31:34, 1] smbd/process.c:process_smb(1062) Connection denied from 58.239.84.158 There is nothing on this server that I can not replace. Did I just get hacked? Should I wipe this thing and start over? Any and all advice is greatly appreciated!!! Thanks. Lee Perez

by Dave 17 Aug '09

17 Aug '09

Hello, I'm running centos 5.3 with the priority plugin enabled. One of my 3rd party repos has updated httpd and php packages that i want to get, however it won't overwrite the base packages of httpd* and php* since they were installed from base. How can i update just these specific packages httpd* and php* without changing my priority options? Thanks. Dave.

Confused about named, chroot, and tmp files.

Any ideas why bind is putting the tmp files in the [chroot]/var/named directory and not in /tmp or /var/tmp?

A response I got from the local LUG here in Hong Kong to a post about translating the wiki articles into Chinese pointed me to the links below: http://www.centoschina.com/ http://apt.nc.hcc.edu.tw/web/student_server_centos/student_server_centos.ht… Posted just in case the Centos team has an issue with the first link. The site has a logo with 'CentOS' in it.

to filter dos ip using iptables recent
by MontyRee 16 Aug '09

16 Aug '09

Hello, all. I read this document about iptables recent module. http://blog.andrew.net.au/2005/02/16#ipt_recent_and_ssh_attacks and I would like to filter the excessive spam mail sending ip address by iptables recent module. and some questions. iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 25 -m state --state NEW -m recent --set --name SPAM iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 25 -m state --state NEW -m recent --update --seconds 60 --hitcount 4 --rttl --name SPAM -j DROP If I set like above, I can't understand the meaning of the hitcount. it means the number of a packet, session or connection? above rule means if 4 connection for 60 seconds, the ip will be filtered for 60 seconds, right? if some ip was filtered, how long will be filtered? for 60 seconds? when I see the list as cat /proc/net/ipt_recent/SPAM the maximum number is 100. if it reaches the 100, no problem? and how to increase the number? Thanks in advance. _________________________________________________________________ 메신저 10살 생일도 축하해 주시고,이벤트도 참여하세요~! http://im.msn.co.kr/im/main/mainCoverDetail.asp?BbsCode=bbs01&Seq=2688

OT: Fortunate clueless dd chum - lvm recovery
by Chan Chung Hang Christopher 15 Aug '09

15 Aug '09

Looks like the chum did not have to lose any data. Wiping out the MBR and the next 63 blocks apparently only wiped out grub stage1, partition table, and part of the lvm config data. I get to try to do a lvm 'recovery' at his expense now but this is my first time...has anybody ever tried restoring lvm config data back to the md/pv device? Cheers, Christopher

building CentOS rpms?
by Dave 15 Aug '09

15 Aug '09

Hello, I'd like to get in to rpm building and am looking for a CentOS specific document if any to get me going? I want to repackage an existing rpm and give it different runtime options so it'll work on a server, and make an rpm at least one probably more, and then submit them to the rpmforge repo. Googling showed me some old Suse docs on this subject. Any help appreciated. Thanks. Dave.
