/* HINT: Search archives @ http://www.indyramp.com/masq/ before posting! */ Hey Everyone, Lots of changes this round to TrinityOS. Check it out. Also, I think I'm going to give up on the SGML port idea just because there just aren't any good GUI SGML editors for Linux or for Windows that support spell checking, the LinuxDoc format, etc that is AFFORDABLE. So.. a question to you: What good word processor for Linux has GOOD export abilities to HTML? I would prefer something that can output HTML code like the LDP's HOWTOs but its not critical. The only WPs that I can think of that might fit the bill is: Corel's WordPerfect Sun's StarOffice Applix's Applixware Additional ideas, thoughts, experiences, etc is welcome. PS. 291 users on the list now! I gotta get this thing on a list server now. Any preferences? MajorDomo, BeroMail, etc? This will then go into TrinityOS. --David G 11/07/99 - Added a little blurb at the top of where the name Trinity comes from. [Section 1] N - Updated the feature description for DNS to reflect how to apply for a DNS domain name. [Section 3] N - noted that 2.2.12 is stable N - Added a URL to section 5 for MASQing GRE/PPTP tunnels N - Added a URL for AIDE. A GNU version of Tripwire. [Section 5] N - Renamed to "Thoughts on Picking a Linux Distribution" N - Cleaned up some verbage - Updated RH to 6.1 - Updated Caldera to 2.3 [Section 6] N - Moved the search/replace section up towards the top N - noted that the tmp.watch is fixed in rh6.x G - changed the Minicom color fix to use the MINICOM env var instead of an alias N - noted that the "ls" color option was fixed in RH6.x N - Updated some of the comments to reflect if they are fixed in newer distros, re-arranged them for better reading, etc. N - Fixed the comment that tar's BZIP2 support isn't "-I" but "-y" G - Added /etc/ftpconversions to the TrinityOS-files archive subdir on my WWW site. N - removed the blurb: "I've been informed that Netscape Navigator and Communicator rely on "rpm" to determine what version is installed. Unless "rpm" can be executed, Netscape will NOT run." as it isn't true." [Section 7] G - Added a blurb on about Slackware's boots process. There was already a blurb for Redhat G - Cleaned up the Redhat SYS-V section and added verbage on what runlevels are. G - Updated the verbage in the GUI notes and greatly expanded on the "chkconfig" section to enable/disable system daemons. G - Fixed a mistake where loading inetd changes was done by "init q". This is wrong.. you should HUP the inetd process. Heheh.. this is an OLD mistake! G - Removed the entire section about deleting lines out of /etc/services. Not only did this NOT give anyone more security but it broke a lot of things too. There ya go Andy! [Section 8] N - Deleted all references to the old "log.to.ttys" script file. This included the scripts: "recycle" and "sendlogs". "log.to.ttys" has been replaced by logging directly from syslog. Thanks to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for catching this. [Section 9] G - Updated the firewall flow diagram to reflect possible MASQing and that the OUTPUT ruleset is run after the FORWARD rule. Thanks to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for making me clarify this. I - Consolodated the weak IPFWADM and IPCHAINS MASQ rulesets into one. Also, I added the setup of the initial firewall policies and to flush any old rulesets. I also gave this weak ruleset a version number of 3.00. Thanks to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for the heads up. I - Reordered the initial ruleset to set the policies FIRST and then flush the rules. I - Updated the strong IPCHAINS ruleset to turn on ip forwarding at the very end. Thanks to Rob Hutton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) for the thoughts above. G - Changed the URL to directly download the TrinityOS firewall ruleset file to http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~dranch/LINUX/TrinityOS-files/rc.firewall-TrinityOS -3.30 [Section 10] G - Changed the TCP R-WIN window size from 8192 to 16384 [Section 16] G - Added a pretty comprehensive blurb on how to get your own domain name. This covers new legal changes in the US, trademark issues, and how to secure chamges for your domain name by evil remote people. [Section 24] G - Updated the SSH1 config to not allow ROOT logins too. Thanks to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for the pointer. [Section 30] ------------------ .----------------------------------------------------------------------------. | David A.
