How about the specific section from htaccess that you are using? Can the 
htpasswd file be read by apache?

Also, after you have restarted apache, and you access that directory for the 
first time, do you see any error messages in the log?

You cant. there is no concept of stand output *file*. There is just standard 
output. If you want to write to the file, dont use redirection - pass the 
file name as a parameter to the script, and write to it.

No the page you sent just manipulates with the

You could do it using NFS though. Or maybe VMWARE. Another obscure

perhaps hacking Anaconda a bit to do it.

Or see if any of the distros around support that already?

That's an unsound design. Don't prevent your users from redirecting to
a device or piping to another command. And if the program really wants
to know which file contains what, it should be naming and writing them
itself, not asking users to jump through pointless hoops. At the very
least, you should just take the filename as an argument (as has been
pointed out several times already).

[ilugd] (fwd) [SECURITY] US-CERT Technical Cyber Security Alert TA04-245A -- Multiple Vulnerabilities in Oracle Products

2004-09-01 Thread Raj Mathur
[As usual, Oracle doesn't wish to divulge the precise nature of the
vulnerabilities in their products; however, rest assured that these
are serious enough and widespread enough (look at the Impact section
under).  Upgrade if you're using Oracle on any platform; even better,
switch to PgSQL or something :) At least they have validable
vulnerability reporting and disclosure policies!

 Technical Cyber Security Alert TA04-245A
Multiple Vulnerabilities in Oracle Products

   Original release date: September 1, 2004
   Last revised: --
   Source: US-CERT

Systems Affected

   The following Oracle applications are affected:

 * Oracle Database 10g Release 1, version 10.1.0.2
 * Oracle9i Database Server Release 2, versions 9.2.0.4 and 9.2.0.5
 * Oracle9i Database Server Release 1, versions 9.0.1.4, 9.0.1.5 and
   9.0.4
 * Oracle8i Database Server Release 3, version 8.1.7.4
 * Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 10g, version 10.1.0.2
 * Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control 10g, version 10.1.0.2
 * Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4), versions 9.0.4.0 and
   9.0.4.1
 * Oracle9i Application Server Release 2, versions 9.0.2.3 and
   9.0.3.1
 * Oracle9i Application Server Release 1, version 1.0.2.2

   Oracle's Collaboration Suite and E-Business Suite 11i contain some of
   the vulnerable components and are also affected.

   According to Oracle, the following product releases and versions, and
   all future releases and versions are not affected:

 * Oracle Database 10g Release 1, version 10.1.0.3
 * Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 10g, version 10.1.0.3 (not
   yet available)
 * Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4), version 9.0.4.2 (not yet
   available)

Overview

   Several vulnerabilities exist in the Oracle Database Server,
   Application Server, and Enterprise Manager software. The most serious
   vulnerabilities could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary
   code on an affected system. Oracle's Collaboration Suite and
   E-Business Suite 11i contain the vulnerable software and are affected
   as well.

I. Description

   Several vulnerabilities have been reported in Oracle's Database
   Server, Application Server, and Enterprise Manager software. According
   to reports, several buffer overflow, format string, SQL injection and
   other types of vulnerabilities were discovered and reported to Oracle.

   Oracle has released Oracle Security Alert #68 (pdf) to address these
   vulnerabilities. We are tracking them as follows:

 VU#170830 - Oracle Enterprise Manager contains several
 vulnerabilities

 VU#316206 - Oracle Database Server contains several vulnerabilities

 VU#435974 - Oracle Application Server contains several
 vulnerabilities

   As more information becomes available, we will update these
   vulnerability notes as appropriate.

II. Impact

   The impacts of the vulnerabilities described above are unclear.

   According to credible reports, the impacts of these vulnerabilities
   range from the remote unauthenticated execution arbitrary code to data
   corruption or leakage.

III. Solution

Apply a patch or upgrade

   Apply the appropriate patch or upgrade as specified in the Oracle
   Security Alert #68 (pdf).

   Organizations that use Oracle's Collaboration Suite or E-Business
   Suite 11i should see Oracle Security Alert #68 (pdf) for remediation
   instructions.

   these vulnerabilities. Specifically, Oracle credits the people for
   discovering these issues: David Litchfield, Michael Litchfield, Cesar
   Cerrudo, Pete Finnigan, Jonathan Gennick, Alexander Kornbrust, Stephen
   Kost, Matt Moore, Aaron Newman, Andy Rees, and Christian Schaller.

If you want linux based programs to provide the kind of features being
provided by above given hardware, it does'nt.

But it does perform well compared to net-meeting

I took gnome-meeting for a test drive, it is cool. In my case we need to
modify the firewall settings. 

Setting it up for two internal networks with firewalls in-between is
slightly tricky, but not impossible.
