The app, is that your PHP script? Or is it the LDAP library (PHP is
stuck in ldap_bind()?), or is it the NDS server? Perhaps you should
try to authenticate and search with ldapsearch or similar tool and
see if it happens then?

Hi list
Is is possible to change the default behaviour of the mail() function to
send the message to the queue instead of trying to send it immediately?
I did do some research into this a while back, but it never really got
to a point where I was completely satisfied with the results. I can
recall from then that the behaviour of the mail() function was inherited
from the way sendmail was configured on the server, but I cannot go that
route ( ie, reconfigure sendmail to send all mail requests to the queue,
as the server is not only a webserver, but servers my clients normal
e-mail as well), so I'm basically asking if it is possible to "override"
the sendmail behaviour when you issue the mail() function, or to even
compose and write the message directly to the /var/spool/mqueue folder (
that would obviously NOT use the mail() function).
The reason for all this is that there are some clients that are
abusing/miss-using the mail() function to query a mysql db of 20K users
with a while() loop and then doing a mail() inside the while, this is
causing some serious problems on my server, and I'm trying to look for
ways to put a tab on this.So any other suggestions are also very
welcome.
Thanks

Everything I've read says that there is no way to display the progress of a
file upload (via a form) using PHP.
I'm currently working on a site which will regularly be accepting very
large uploads, anywhere from 10 to 250+ mb and I really need a way to
display the progress of the upload so that it doesn't appear as if the
browser has frozen for a few hours.
Any suggestions for a solution?
thanks

There really isn't a great solution for this, that I know of. It's one of
the few things that makes an argument for ASP over PHP, as far as I'm
concerned (if you have the luxury of choosing). Below is what I did once to
try to get around the problem. It worked *okay*.
The bummer is that I had to ask people to enter the size of their file in a
field. (Rough estimates were okay.) Then, as soon as somebody hit the submit
button on my form, I popped up a small, modal, progress bar sized window
that was actually two frames. I passed the file size value from the form
field to the top frame. In the bottom frame, JavaScript created a bordered
<div> equal in pixel length to the number of MB of the file being uploaded.
The top frame, a PHP doc, would then refresh every three seconds, executing
a filesize() on the uploaded file, converting it to MB, rounding up, and
then using DHTML to resize the width of a blue-gradient gif contained in the
<div> of the bottom frame of the progress bar window.
Typically, this worked okay for me. It wasn't the prettiest progress bar in
the world, but it did the trick for most people.
HTH!

Sorry, I wrote too quickly. I meant that the file size field value is passed
to the bottom frame. And JavaScript is used to resize the gif, not DHTML.
(Used to be DHTML when I was adding nbsp instead of resizing an image.)
HTH,

I have a mySQL db, and a bunch of tables in it.
What i want to do, is to pick up some data, and
display in my Flash Movie.
For example. I have a table with a list. Now on my
main page, i display the total number of people in the
list so far (By counting the rows). Now i want to
display the same in my Flash movie.
How can we exactly insert PHP Coding inside Flash
Movie to make the code work? Any tips...
Thanks,
T. Edison Jr.

Hi,
I'm setting up an Linux Server for codetesting an routing, but it takes
about one week now to configure this s**t.
I could make the routing working. But some Daemons don't start at bootup.
Such as Apache, Squid, MySQL and so on. The only way I'm able to surf in the
Internet is to start Squid after booting manually from Commandline via SSH.
I've read somewhere that if the DNS isn't configured right squid is not able
to run at bootup. So I believe it has something to do with this.
I need really help on this. So please write me if you are willing and able
to help me.
I can give you the IP and the Root Acount information, or you describe me
how i can solve my problem.
The Server runs SuSE 8.0.
Another Problem is, that I don't know where to setup or start the FTPD
daemon.
Please, please Help!!!!
Sascha

Hi,
cd /etc/rc.d
locate the scripts reflecting the services you need to start at boot
do insserv for each script.
e.g.
insserv apache
That way, next time it boots these services will start.
Another way is to use the runtime-level editor of YaST2.

Hello I am working on a PHP server which has register_globals off. In my

I think it is a global configuration setting, so it would not be
possible to turn it off for an individual script.
Just use the $_SERVER['variable_name']

ini_set("register_globals", 1); at the top of your script.

Does this work for the original poster?
Does not work for me (of course I am going the opposite way, wanting to
test scripts one-by-one to verify they work with register_globals off)
running: ini_set("register_globals", 0);
(and, tried both) ini_set("register_globals", "Off");
According to the docs it says:
register_globals "0" PHP_INI_PERDIR|PHP_INI_SYSTEM
Stating that this variable can only be changed in .htaccess, or php.ini
It does seem to return the correct value, but it does not make the same
changes to my script that setting this value to "Off" in php.ini does.
So, is this allowable to set in user scripts? Or is the dosumentation
correct in saying it cannot?

So do you think it has to be a server issue and not a code issue? My site's
traffic load has increased significantly in the last week or so and that's
kind of when it started happening. Could there be a resource problem? Is
there any way to find out more on why it's not running?

Shoudn't it be:
if ($update_type == update_Williams) {
mysql_query("INSERT INTO events_Williams ('user', 'detaildesc', 'index',
'reference', 'date_added') VALUES
('$cookiewho','$add_Williams','','$row_num','$last_update')", $sql4)
or print mysql_error();
}
You need the '(' and ')' in your query to group VALUES
(And what's with all the escaping with '\'? They don't appear to be
needed and make it look very cluttered, i.e. not very readable.

Ohmygosh.. That works...
if ($update_type == update_Williams) {
mysql_query("INSERT INTO events_Williams (user, detaildesc, indexx,
reference, date_added) VALUES ('$cookiewho',
'$add_Williams','','$row_num','$last_update')", $sql4)
or print mysql_error();
}
inserts perfectly..

Hi all. What's the correct procedure to upgrade PHP (in this case 4.0.6) on
a Red Hat system? Usually I just get the PHP tarball compile it myself but
for this particular machine I just want to upgrade the Redhat PHP that's on
the system. As you guys know Redhat puts its PHP (and Apache) files in
different locations- e.g. php.ini is in /etc. I looked for some RPMs but I
kept getting failed dependencies when trying to install them- e.g.:
# rpm -Uvh php-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-manual-4.0.6-15
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-imap-4.0.6-15
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-ldap-4.0.6-15
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-mysql-4.0.6-15
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-odbc-4.0.6-15
php = 4.0.6-15 is needed by php-pgsql-4.0.6-15
I'm not an expert in using rpm so I'm probably doing something completely
wrong???

Hi David,
you should start by checking your current php instalation:
# rpm - qa | grep php
This will show you all packages which contains "php". It will be something
like following:
php-4.1.2-7.2.4
php-manual-4.0.6-15
php-imap-4.0.6-15
php-ldap-4.0.6-15
php-mysql-4.0.6-15
php-odbc-4.0.6-15
php-pgsql-4.0.6-15
Now you know what packages you have installed on your system. Now go to Red
Hat web site to find all this packages - you should to upgrade all of them.
If you have Red Hat Linux 7.2, go to
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2002-102.html and find all of this
packages and download them. Be sure you are downloading rpms for your
version (ie. 7.2).
If you will have all these files downloaded, write the folowwing rpm command
whitch will update all of packages:
# rpm -Uv php-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm php-manual-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm \
php-imap-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm php-ldap-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm \
php-mysql-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm php-odbc-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm \
php-pgsql-4.1.2-7.2.4.i386.rpm
All the packages are on the one line. Something like following:
# rpm - UV package_1 package_2 ... packege_n
By this way you will update all the packages and there shouldn't be any
"dependencies" error.
If yes, please let me know. I'm not an expert for Red Hat Linux but I am
yousind this distribution and I am doing it by this way... and it's works
for me.
Best regards,
Jan

I think you are definitely on the right track here, though I
unfortunately haven't had time to look at your code (thus, I'm just
going by your description).
Due to frequent vulnerabilities found in Internet Explorer's cookie
handling (versions 4.0 - 6.0 allow anyone to view cookies from any
domain, regardless of the cookie's characteristics), cookies should be
considered public by any system attempting to be secure. Meaning, if
both your key that you describe as well as the session ID are stored in
cookies, a compromise of both these cookies opens you up to a
presentation attack. This does not require the attacker to sniff the
HTTP traffic in any way, so even the use of another security method such
as SSL does not prevent this type of attack.
Instead, you should consider some sort of combination approach, where
you utilize both URL variables and cookies. URL variables are quite
exposed (and can be revealed with the Referer HTTP header), so you want
to make the exposure of this by itself useless to an attacker. At the
same time, you want a cookie compromise to not compromise your entire
mechanism. By requiring both types of attacks, you at least make a
compromise more difficult and therefore slightly strengthen what you've
already got.
Hope that helps. Happy hacking.

Hello Timo, thanks very much. I don't know flash, but do you think Flash
5 has this option also?. I read a basic Flash manual and didn't find
some feature for 'sockets' or something else.
For Java, I know a very basic programming of it, I will try study more
of it to understand socket functions.
Thanks all of you for your responses.
