long shot/off topic

[bruce]

Hi.

This is off topic from OS issues!! so be cool.

Trying to find if anyone knows of a "php/laravel" guru who's willing
to be a tutor via phone in the US?

If you do, or you know of a place one can find these resources, let me
know off the thread.

thanks

ps. I've tried local colleges, some of the tutor websites, etc..

Re: Hotel wifi network - how to connect / ssh between 2 laptops

[bruce]

Or...

You might talk with the front desk/data person. If a group came in for
a meeting and wanted to do what you describe, they might have an
additional solution for you to use!

Might be worth checking out.

good luck

Re: running auto apps on tgt srvr via ssh access

[bruce]

Hi Brian.

Thanks!

But setting up ssh is no issue. My issue, I'm wondering how to "run" a
cmd on srvr2 via ssh when I'm on srvr1. And a larger issue, is this
even the "right" way to handle testing "stuff" within Github?

thanks.

running auto apps on tgt srvr via ssh access

[bruce]

Hi.

Doing some research and thought I'd ask here as well.

A potential use case has a user fetching projects from "Github" and
running tests with the project on the tgtTestServer

The tgtTestServer can have the shell script to fetch/test the Github
project. However, I'm wondering what might be suitable/reasonable
methods of "sshing" into the tgtServer to initiate/run the script.

Any pointers/sites for this kind of thing would be great.

thanks

Re: github cloning from cmdline

[bruce]

Hi Sam!!!

ok...

user err!!

Thanks for replying/posting your  "ssh-keygen" cmd..

login as user
 create sshkey priv/pub id_ed25519_g
   //ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C 'y...@email.com' -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_g -q -N ''
--is "C" for passphrase?
--per Sam/fed email thread, test without "-C..."
   ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_g

The diff being the removal of the "-q -N" attributes
  -N -- new passphrase
 -q  --- don't know what this does???

running the cmd, then generates the priv/pub sshkey...

-clear out the 'sshkey' in the github webpage/settings
 https://github.com/settings/keys

on/in the cmdline/term
 cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_g.pub
 do a copy of the output, and add the results to/as the key in the
github sshkey dialog

this sets the "new" sshkey on the remote/github app/site

from the cmdline/client..

do a test:
 ssh -vT g...@github.com

this succeeds.. as expected... sshkey/connection is valid/works

test the clone for the local side,,
 git clone g...@github.com:foo/clist.git

local clone/dir is created... success!!!

next.. to test basic local git actions
  file changes, repo changes
  "upload" repo changes to the remote github site/app
 etc...

(ps -- so all it took was to have the correct ssh-keygen cmd!!)
  -- was pretty sure it was something subtle/simple.

anything I should test??

thanks!

Re: github cloning from cmdline

[bruce]

Hi Sam.

Ok, so you did a similar test using steps that I've provided, and it
runs correctly.

This is cool! -- So this points to "user" err, or something weird...

If I may, are you running everything as user 'foo' or 'root'?
Are you running everything in the same term window/process?

And, can I ask if you can post the relevant section of your config
file that pertains to the github issue?

I'll rerun the "test" I've been doing, and post the steps/results. I'm
doing this both with fed as well as ubuntu to see if there's any
weirdness.

Thanks for your posts on this!

Hi Jeffery.

I did do a test as user foo
git clone g...@github.com:foo/test.git


it returns
,
,
,
Enter passphrase for key '/home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g':
debug1: No more authentication methods to try.
g...@github.com: Permission denied (publickey).

which as I've stated appears to be asking for a passphrase even though
none was used to create the "key"

As to the issue you guys have with running  ssh -vT g...@github.com,
I'm not sure why, as this appears to simply test the connection via ssh.
but again, running this gets the same

 Enter passphrase for key '/home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g':
debug1: No more authentication methods to try.
g...@github.com: Permission denied (publickey).

but again, running this gets the same issue

Re: github cloning from cmdline

[bruce]

Hi Samuel.

Yeah, trying to clone using cmdline/ssh

I can clone using https.

The steps I've tried
 don't seem to connect.

login as foo
eval `ssh-agent -s`
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_g
Enter passphrase for /home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g:

the perms for
 chmod 700 /home/foo/.ssh
 chmod 600 .ssh/*
   id_ed25519_g
   id_ed25519_g.pub

login to another term::
run ssh-add -L
ssh-rsa 
B3NzaC1yc2EBIwAAAQEAwIufIK2RJZe4UStofMA8eoD45PALWKTz8gmHUFVMs+fkjnOVB/huo973wPGGg8PkEQu1tjl7hh3MmjNU+LykZykbRSm6jTBU7K4EUtGhF7AMWsPjyrLwrlmtL36O74ucFVNEb0uih8y827uP3cKEGX/gi7m8FHFzn0sR547jB8s3q2mBey/n+iKKB3WU0BgGSnYUdWQTKK51J4mNEtkdr/zV/0xQ+ICMjLRuIT4cFhKJ1SRBN4GeyqXzH8tOx4a7aeNMgu2KyoZUwPTXg+nQQh6TNt8v1VfOvz4S4T+uR4XakQeIAMSrDn1TSZ7+P6bNLk3jNjF8RJPnr59QQEPQhw==
root@foo
ssh-rsa 
B3NzaC1yc2EBIwAAAQEAnB5GhprThFO3uQunWqnMVef7lwH2PT6uOw0vMsrS/yD8Okxl7STcnYY+c80CAlz4pORiVSvsmCtpod5z/ke73hZzqXevwskrixZGsI2pW8F8bsquttZAiKdutppIo2ILcG1ZL4zVrizWh4Ad6ywNt/N0ZZdbwjEkNDb6RCgFyDfZc/fCZRy2yw5qqG5C7t0EGvybNVRBfrXeSAQcyRW9CESdBDVFWe7DRI5SrNoLSrJfEUOhoTz+uP5tZLLpKq+6vYwQfuLS9DoUjULrtnPakmE0FmqyVA10YdAONWlAoVyWsT9Jxq21QglXf6h7xATp4HtxpwgU7kxoqBtjJClDpQ==
root@foo
  are the items that are returned...
  which is weird.. not sure how these got there...

I'm trying to remove/delete these items, so when I do a "ssh-add -L"
it returns ""

I've tried to "delete" the items by using portions of the content with no luck..

ie..
ssh-add -L | grep -F '7kxoqBtjJClDpQ=' | ssh-add -d -
returns...
Identity removed: (stdin) RSA (root@foo)

but the "ssh-add -L" still returns the same items.
This is still the same action even when logging out/back in the term

the steps should be
login as user foo
setup the sshkey

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C 'y...@email.com' -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 -q -N ''

making sure the perms are set to the correct perms
cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
-- add the key to the github/ssh new key page

using the pub key, add it to the "github" webpage in the new sshkey dialog

before cloning a repos, test to make sure things work...

ssh -vT g...@github.com
this should return success if everything works correctly

which seems to ask for a passphrase!!
and then it dies..

I've tried to run the basic process

setup the /.ssh/config
Host github.com
  HostName github.com
  ## 67.205.151.11
  User git
  AddKeysToAgent yes
  /home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C 'y...@email.com' -f ~/.ssh/github/id_ed25519 -q -N ''

creates the new key pub/priv
cat ~/.ssh/github/id_ed25519.pub
cat ~/.ssh/github/id_ed25519
 -- add the key to the github/ssh new key page

.
.
.
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey
debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
debug1: Trying private key: /home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g
debug1: PEM_read_PrivateKey failed
debug1: read PEM private key done: type 
Enter passphrase for key '/home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g':
debug1: No more authentication methods to try.
Permission denied (publickey).

which seems to ask for a passphrase!!
and then it dies..

so..
try using the sshgen
eval $(ssh-agent -s)

ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_g
Enter passphrase for /home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g:


log into a sep term
run
 ssh-add -L

 ==>> there should be the key from the id_ed25519_g

which should then allow you to run
  ssh -vT g...@github.com
to test
 on success

you could then clone the repos

git clone g...@github.com:foo/test.git

thoughts...

thanks..

Re: github cloning from cmdline

[bruce]

Hi Jeffery,

Thanks for the reply. In my test, I don't configure a
   $HOME/.gitconfig file, and your /.git/config file.

The weird thing, i'm seeing a number of other people who have had
similar issues with accessing g...@github.com

and they seem to discuss using the ssh-agent for the key.

But none of the tutorials I've seen indicate you need to use a keyring..

thanks

github cloning from cmdline

[bruce]

Hi.

I'm trying to test using SSH key to clone a test repository from the cmdline..

I'm screwing up something in following the different sires/examples to
try to setup the SSH key to connect to "Github" for a user/repository.

It appears that the "ssh -vT g...@github.com"  cmd seems to always
request a "passphrase" even though the ssh key was created without a
passphrase.

I've tried the following cmds on a number of different systems/OS,
with the same results.

the cmds are:

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C 'y...@email.com' -f ~/.ssh/github/id_ed25519 -q -N ''

cat ~/.ssh/github/id_ed25519.pub
 -- add the key to the github/ssh new key page

(if you notice, no PASSPHRASE)

the ssh private key file is added to the "config" file

ssh -vT g...@github.com is run...

.
.
.
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey
debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
debug1: Trying private key: /home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g
debug1: PEM_read_PrivateKey failed
debug1: read PEM private key done: type 
Enter passphrase for key '/home/crawl_user/.ssh/id_ed25519_g':
debug1: No more authentication methods to try.
Permission denied (publickey).

which seems to ask for a passphrase!!
and then it dies..

I've tried various OS flavors...

looked over different sites..

Anyone with SSH/Fed/Github experience able to provide any thoughts/comments??

I'm sure I'm missing someting subtle, but I can't see it for now.

thanks

a bit off topic -- software development checklist!

[bruce]

Hey.

A bit off topic, but I'll ask anyway.

For those of you who dabble in developing/managing software teams, do
you have any "fav" open source proj management webapps you use? I'm
looking for a reasonable/good app I could use for a personal project
that might have a small team . I'm looking for the ability to
"manage"/track the dev/test/deploy processes as the app is created.

I'm looking at some different apps, thought I'd ask here as well.

Any thoughts/pointers would be appreciated.

thanks

package/mod install issue

[bruce]

Hi,

Working with a test DO process, to install a package/module

install npm

.
.
.
Failed to restart ssh.service: Transaction contains conflicting jobs
'stop' and 'restart' for ssh.service. Probably contradicting
requirement dependencies configured.
See system logs and 'systemctl status ssh.service' for details.
Could not execute systemctl:  at /usr/bin/deb-systemd-invoke line 142.
Failed to restart ssh.socket: Transaction contains conflicting jobs
'restart' and 'stop' for ssh.service. Probably contradicting
requirement dependencies configured.
See system logs and 'systemctl status ssh.socket' for details.
.
.

Trying to figure out what/where I can research to try to resolve this.

Checking different 'net sites haven't produced a solution.

The test system already had/has a working ssh/sshd process.

Obviously, the sshd can't be stopped! I did try to "update" with no improvement

Re: might be off topic -- using digitalocean to test

[bruce]

Hi Cameron!

Thanks for the reply.

I've tried multiple tests.. gotten a few of the DO cust srvc techs
involved, apparently escalated the issue up the chain.

I've only gotten this thing to work once! It should be trivial.

frustrating to put it mildly!

If you can't accurately/reliably clone/duplicate a droplet, then the
whole idea of cloud instances that you can manage/trac is sort of out
the window!

might be off topic -- using digitalocean to test

[bruce]

Hi.

Does anyone have digitalocean (DO) experience creating
droplets/snapshots/cloning etc.

I'm thinking of doing tests with the platform. Wanted to ask specific questions.

The questions have more to do with actual steps to "clone" a given
"droplet" than Fedora itself.

thanks

ssh access sshKey/password

[bruce]

Hi.

I know.. list is really only for fedora!  But I was hoping I might
find someone who could point me in a direction to figure out what's
going on.

This is a digitalocean/ubuntu issue for setting up/testing SSH access.

Since this is a test, I'm more than willing to grant root access to
figure this out. I've created snapshots to recreate the
droplet/instance.

thanks
==


I have a test digitalocean droplet. It was setup for ssh access.

It more or less works. I have a few test users that I can ssh into
with no issue. I also created a test user with no ssh key, to test ssh
with password.

ssh testu@1.2.3.4
 generates the "password" prompt to login, as expected.

I've tested this with a copy of "centos", as well as another ubuntu
20.04 system.

Both tests seem to work as expected.


I decided to do a copy of the initial DO droplet -- 161.35.5.174 and
to create another copy of this with the same dir/files/processes.

steps:
turn off "161.35.5.174"
Create a "snapshot" of the "161.35.5.174"
Use the "snapshot" to create another droplet with a diff IP. "161.35.5.x"

turn on 161.35.5.174
and use 161.35.5.x
so I now should have 2 valid droplets, with SSH access...


Now, at this point, I thought/assumed/hoped the user could simply
access the new droplet via SSH the same as the initial droplet.

I was sadly mistaken!

Or I have a subtle/massive user err.

my test users
root
sroot
crawl_user
*testu

Each of these have ssh keys/dirs on/in the droplets (except fo testu,
which is a simple user acct)

When I'm on the test centos, and I ssh into the 161.35.5.174, everything works..
 ssh -v sroot@161.35.5.174 works as expected...

So, it appears the "161.35.5.174" initial droplet works as expected,
which implies the "ssh" server/daemon is working, and that the
/etc/ssh/sshd_config is configured/set

The idea is to allow for "root" access -- for the test

My goal for the overall test, is to allow
 ssh access into the 161.35.5.174 droplet
   via sshKey, as well as password.

 and to do the same for the copied/created droplet

 ***
 THIS ISN'T WORKING!!!
 when I'm on the centos and I test
 ssh -vvv sroot@165.227.198.59
 to allow sshKey, as well as "password" access via ssh

the results are:

way off topic...

[bruce]

please.. no flames..

we all know.. the list is FEDORA only... (got it... ) no flames..
(this is a last resort!)

However, doing a test of a digitalocean installation/install of ubuntu
"23.10". The goal is to get a running Apache webserver. In fedora,
trivial!!

In ubuntu, at least with the Digitalocean starting instance, not quite working.

So, I was wondering 1) has anyone here any experience/success with
this process for ubuntu? 2) anyone have any idea/site one can turn to
for "help"/pointers  I've gone through countless stackoverflow
posts, as well as numerous sites, etc with no success.

Leads me to believe I'm missing something subtle.

Thanks for any/all help!

ssh new cloud instance / new user

[bruce]

Hi.

Lost my old notes. Laying out how to setup test cloud instance to be
able to have testUserA and root

testUserA will login/access via ssh
testUSerA will create private/pub key, with /home/testUserA/.ssh on
the CloudInstance (D1)

ssh will allow testUserA
ssh will not allow root access

root will have passwd -- passwd1 (example)
root will not have ssh key, (why would it need it?)

my question..
testUserA will access via ssh and then can simply su root to do root things..

or should there be an intermediate user with "sudo" rights that
testUserA would change to, to then do root things.

thoughts/comments.

thanks

monitoring of fed/web severs

[bruce]

Hi.

To all you sys admin -- real or just good!

I'm doing some thought/research prep to figure out what's required to
monitor remote (cloud) web servers, and the services running on the
instance.

Ie, what apps/services should be used
 -3rd party apps running/pointed to the box
 -what  should be tracked/monitored?
 -are there "recipes" to use to be used as a starting point?
 -things "not" to do  -- things "to" do..

Good/Better/Best practices...
Server security processes
User attacking the server
Traffic attacking the web Server process..

Whatever the list has to offer, I'd be interested in seeing/hearing.

thanks much

ps. The use case is a couple of test servers, running different
webSites, with different mysql db. The apps will be php/javascript for
the most part.

thanks!!

Off topic -- but a slow list day

[bruce]

Hi.

Doing some research on email list providers?. Most seem to charge
based on emails sent, as well as the size of the contact/email list.

Does anyone have any experience dealing with any of these providers?
And, if you do, does anyone have any pointers to "cheap" providers for
unlimited contacts!

thanks!

feel free to hit me up off list.

dev system for building test android apps -- prob off topic!

[bruce]

Hi.

Probably OFF TOPIC!!

Thinking of testing out building/creating a couple of test android
mobile apps. Looking over different docs/sites/forums, it appears the
dev/text system needs to be somewhat hefty!

So, thought I'd ask here for thoughts if anyone has done this. What
did you use in terms of cpu/drive/mem? Or did you just do a cloud
instance?

sysadmin/mentor !!

[bruce]

Hey peeps.

Hope those who celebrate the 4th had a good time, and all is safe.

I'm working on a project, and ready to deploy a couple of test apps on
a cloud server. I'd like to be reasonably safe/secure, and thought I'd
turn here to see if anyone wants to play the role of short term
mentor/guide for this.

I've scanned numerous sites, etc. .. but still would feel better if
I've got someone I can discuss prior to deploying, or ping if
something happens.

If you're interested, ping and we can talk. And yeah, I expect that
there might be a fee!

Asking for thoughts/comments on a laptop/specs

[bruce]

Looking at/over a couple of laptops and thought I'd ask the list for input.

The laptop(s) are HP..

The initial url for the box is

https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/pdp/hp-laptop-17z-cp300-799v0av-1
17" hp amd ryzen5 6core/12thread
8G
128G SSD
$400

would probably add 16G for +$60
 +1tb for $50 (as well)


laptop would be used for basic/work stuff running fed/linux..

thoughts/comments

thanks/much appreciation


ps --- there's also an intel -- 10core/12 thread for 500 -- woud need
to beef it up as well..

the url -- https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/vwa/17-inch-laptops/scrs=17-?orderBy=3

Re: hp - windows media creation tool

[bruce]

Hi Cam.

Thanks for your reply.

For you/any others who might have these kinds of questions/issues (I
know this isn't strict Fedora)

It appears there's the Windows data files for the ISO
It appears the windows mediacreationtool.exe is used
It appears that win11 doesn't require a key (true/false)?? still
researching this
It appears a clean usb fat32 can be formatted/used for the bootable ISO..
This could then allow for testing of installing Fedora/etc.. and
returning to win as needed..

Feel free to add anything I may have left out..

thanks

ps.. Now to get hp to lower their prices!

hp - windows media creation tool

[bruce]

Hey.

Looking over hp's laptops. They come with windows 11. I was wondering
if the hp - windows mediacreationtool actually works to copy the
windows OS to a usb so I can restore if required.

Thought I'd ask the list if anyone has used this tool to copy/restore
windows after installing fedora.

The docs/sites imply it should work.

Thoughts/comments.

scrolling issue

[bruce]

Hi.

I've done something wrong. In test terminals, I can no longer seem to
have unlimited scrolling. I run a test script, that should generate
lots of line/output.

For some reason, the output seems to only display the latest X lines
(havent counted them). But it appears less than 50.

I've looked in the "Terminal" menu, and unlimited scrolling is checked.

I've tried the usual reset -- reset/clear etc.

Looking over diff 'net sites hasn't gotten the 'aha' moment.

Any thoughts

Hi George.

The laptop in question would be one of the AMD 5 ryzen 6/10 core

I'd add mem/1TB internal drive as well.

thanks for your comments!

Re: curious -- looking for thoughts/opinions

[bruce]

hi Tim.

thanks.  Hadn't even thought of the possibility issue of not being able to
access the internal components for upgrading.  Another issue.

What I've got on my rough process is a complete list of installed apps as
well as libs/files from the different sys dirs... and the var dirs..

I've tested some of this in the past with a cheap cloud instance to see how
well the basic process works.

Of course there would be all the rest of the stuff. security stuff. user
dirs/stuff

thanks

curious -- looking for thoughts/opinions

[bruce]

Hi.

Looking at getting another laptop.

Any thoughts on completely transferring as well as updating the data
on the current drive to the new laptop.

Assume I might be dealing with a diff flavor of linux. I'm not sure
what the new laptop will have.

I don't want bleeding edge fedora.. (unless I change my mind).

I don't want RHEL/centos -- I'd like to be newer.

So, give me your thoughts as well as best practice that you use for
this kind of process...

thanks!

Hi.
Somewhat off topic, but the list appears to be slow!

I'm looking to setup a test github app for a marketing page. The app
is react, and I'm looking to be able to deploy to a test apache env.

Anyone who''s done this willing to share off-post pointers on how to
do this, what issues might arise, pain points, etc..

Different sites/videos show different things, so I thought I'd ask here as well.

Re: old system -centos 6 -- trying to fix a disk/partition/vol issue

[bruce]

And yeaHi Peter.

Thanks for the reply.

It appears that the issue is as simple as -- the LABEL of the
partition from gparted is "TestDir' - not /media/TestDir <<
one I changed the line in the fstab..
  >> LABEL=TestDir /media/TestDir

and then did a mount -a

The partition/data is viewable..

At some point, I'll do a reboot to see if the box reboots again.

Thanks!

old system -centos 6 -- trying to fix a disk/partition/vol issue

[bruce]

Hi.

I know. centos6 is dead/buried/reincarnated.

However, I have a very old box that I haven't touched in a bit.

I had created a /media/TestDir using part of the drive. As I recall,
it had been working. However, when I turned it on earlier, something
happened, (i think the cat hit the cord!). I rebooted and got a msg
about the /media/foo not being able to resolve and therefore not boot.

I did a quick comment out of the offending line in the fstab. Rebot
was successful.

Now, I'm wondering how to get the fstab /media/foo back with the
underlying files. I assume the files are still on the "drive". As a
matter of fact, just fired up gparted, and it shows the partition
/dev/sda4 as et4 with a Label of "TestDir".

This was the line in the /etc/fstab file
##LABEL=/media/TestDir /media/TestDir  ext4defaults1 2

This is more a curiosity than anything.

thanks..

Setting up a stable/secure test web server/webapp on a cloud server.

[bruce]

Hi.

As a pure test, I'm thinking of putting together a test app on a cloud
server. I've seen a bunch of blogs/vids/etc.. But I'm concerned about
the security aspects of the test server.

So, are there any solid/serious best practices that the list can
recommend? In looking over Centos/Ubuntu, from what I've seen, most
things should be "similar"

My use case:
 test webapp for users to access, fill out a test form
 test app deals with mysql/email generation

 server should have remote/ssh access
 server should be monitored
 server should have basic ddos (cloudflare) protection
 webserver should have "test" ssl certs (for https)

 server should be updatable -- how to do this in a reasonable manner/policy?
 server -- data redundancy/recovery in case things go fubar
 etc..

 If you have skills in this area, and want to take this offline, that
would be great.

thanks!

Re: good/best source for replacement mem/drive

Hi Tim.

Apparently a lot of newer laptops no longer have LAN ports. They're
now running the eth off the dongle. Same as no longer having the older
built in DVD drives...

HP USB-C to RJ45 Adapter

HP Laptop 17-cp0097nr - 599
-no LAN -no DVD

HP Laptop 17-ca3097nr - 729
 -has pretty much everything.. except has 2 4G stick/no IDE

Thinking of upgrading a laptop.

Any opinions on good/best online to get 8G mem sticks as well as 1G

restoring the screen/apps/menus on powering back up

[bruce]

Hi.

Wondering if there's a solution/process to being able to restore a
laptop to the state it had prior to powering down.

I run Gnome. Say I have multiple workspaces. Each workspace has a
number of "term" windows, and some gedit processes. The Gedit
processes might be running/editing different files.

Is there a way to power down, and power back up, and to be able to
have the same workspace/layout with all the terms/apps running as
before?

Honest Questions -- Trying to decide on version of linux/os

[bruce]

Hi.

In the middle of trying to figure out a dev platform. So, looking at a
blank slate to figure out what version of OS  should have on the
"work" laptop. Project work will be on the laptop as well as cloud
VM..

At the same time (if it matters),  looking to to have a new laptop --
12-16G, 256GSSD/1TB, 6-8 core.

I'd prefer to have an OS that's rather stable, as I'm not looking to
be the "sys admin" role.. Although, if I can find a remote sys admin
that I could trust for a reasonable fee. I could be down for it. Given
that this is Fed, I expect the maority of replies will lean to Fed!

So, I'm interested in thoughts for the group.

Thanks

drive layout

[bruce]

Hi.

Doing some research into how devs are using their dev systems in terms
of the actual layout/partition of the drives. I've seen plenty of
articles, figured I'd ask here as well.

If you have an interested, I'd appreciate your thoughts.

1) How is your drive/system laid out regarding your paritions?
2) Do you have multiple drives (SSD/Sata)?
3) Is OS on one drive, apps/data on the other?
4) Do you switch between OS(es)?
5) What's your "backup" process/strategy?
6) What's your "update" strategy(ies)?

I'm looking to get a new system
 AMD/ryzen -8core 16G 256G SSD - 1TBSata

I realize that I haven't changed in >10 years, so now is probably a
good time get up to date on a number of things!

thanks for your insights

Re: M2 on laptop

[bruce]

Hi guys!!

Thanks for the information helping the OP with his/her/their issue.

I'm not trying to take over the thread, but I'm going to run into a
similar situation.

I'm thinking of getting a laptop (hp/lenovo/dell) that would have
windows installed on the SSD. I'm thinking of getting an additional 2G
2.5" SATA and would like to be able to dual boot windows/fed (or
rhel).

For those of you who've gone down this path. What are issues I need to
be aware of that I can resolve prior to getting the box? Questions I
should ask the presales tech support?

Trying to see if Firefox pem/certs can be used for the "curl" cmd

[bruce]

Hi.

This is a bit off-topic. But I thought I might throw it out here.

Curl has the ability to use certs from the Browser. Trying to research
and figure out how to accomplish this.

Various sites discuss, but haven't seen a step by step process. So
before I start testing thought I'd ask here

thanks!

off topic -- older centos -- ff sound issue

[bruce]

Hi.

Feel free to disregard as you see fit.

Trying to debug/resolve a sound issue. The base OS is an older Centos
7. It's running FF 78. - pulseaudio is running.

Sound works with the Chrome browser. However, can't seem to figure out
why sound is not working with FF! The FF app isn't appearing in the
"sound applicaition" gui when running vid/audio.

I've checked the preference box to disregard hardware in FF. I've
looked/researched the net as well.

Thought I'd turn here as last resort.

Any possible things to check?

thanks

Re: curl/timeout issue -- OFF TOPIC!

[bruce]

Hi Cameron/List.


Regarding the Curl issue. It now appears that it's not a "Centos"
issue. It appears that the college Saddleback college is blocking
command line processes.

A conversation with their tech team said that they have gotten more
strict due to the website being hit with DDOS attacks that shut down
the site a while back.

So even though my tests weren't that extensive, they triggered the
firewall/load balancer. While the IP of AWS are recognied and has some
leeway, the  IP addresses from Digital Ocean dont get the same love.

thanks

curl/timeout issue -- OFF TOPIC!

[bruce]

Hi.

List has been rather sparse today. I have a curl issue that I thought
I'd toss out. Yes it's off topic, and yes I've posted to the curl list
as well.

The basic url operates within the browser the curl cmd generates a
timeout (7) error.

curl  --verbose -L 'https://www.saddleback.edu/' -H 'User-Agent:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0'
-H 'Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8'
-H 'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5' --compressed -H 'Connection:
keep-alive' --cookie-jar /crawl_tmp/a.lwp --cookie /crawl_tmp/a.lwp

thoughts??

Re: javascript/firefox -- really off topic issue/question

Hi Jeremy.

Doing a "view source" only shows the static source. To get the dynamic
gnerated content from the avascript you need to dive into the
Developers Tools/Inspector tab.

javascript/firefox -- really off topic issue/question

[bruce]

Hi.

A few weeks ago someone posted an off-topic thread about scraping
javascript/dynamic sites. Sorry to say, I've got a similar off-topic
post.

If this is unacceptable, let me know and I'll delete the thread.

I'm dealing with the results of a url/site that has javascript. I had
thought I could simply use Firefox, and hit the Developer Tools, and
use the Inspector subWindow.

All of this seems to work. However, in the Inspector window, I cant
figure out how to "expand" all the nodes to see the complete html of
the generated page.

Been looking all over the net to figure this out. I know it's something subtle.

I can set the "mouse" to the "html" node at the top of the window.
Using the "right mouse" click I can select the "Exapnd All" option,
and it appears to expand the nodes within the html. However, I can't
seem to figure out how to then do a "Select All" for all the html in
the Inpspector window so I can view the complete html in an external
editor.

Any idea how this can be accomplished?

thanks!

i know you could cd to /home/test/user1 and
do
rsync -vv -aR  foo/  /var/www/html/

which would get
/var/www/html/foo

but doing an rsync to a specific target dir.. not sure about how to do this!
i know it's a basic question.. but I'm missing it. (google hasn't helped)

Re: rsync question?

[bruce]

For all who replied!

Thanks for taking a few mins to read/reply.  I had seen the
-"-rsync-path"  running the "mkdir" cmd being used for running the
mkdir on the remote side. My case was definitely looking to copy files
locally between a Source and Destination Dir. So, I was looking to
implement the "cp -p" with rsync on a local VM. This was a curious
test kind of thing to see if it could easily be accomplished. as
opposed to simply running two separate cmds.

mkdir -p /foo/cat/etc..
cp -vaR Source Target

which is what I finally punted to doing!

ps. The idea of using localhost was also looked at!

Re: rsync question?

[bruce]

Ok...

More testing..

Opened up the dir perms to 775 -- just to see if this was/is an issue.

I can successfully do

mkdir -p /home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel

with the /home/webdev dir being empty.

This creates the dir path

However, running the rsync cmd, still generates the error:

rsync -aq --rsync-path='mkdir -p /home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel
&& rsync' /home/test/.config/composer/vendor/laravel/
/home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel
rsync: mkdir "/home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel" failed: No such
file or directory (2)
rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at main.c(664) [Receiver=3.1.3]

I can't seem to determine why the "mkdir" within the rsync isn't
working but the mkdir when run alone does.

hmm...

thanks

Hi Jamie...

I don't want to use this as the sourceDir >>
"/home/test/.config/composer/" It's got other dirs/files..

which is why I used the sourceDir here..

rsync question?

[bruce]

Hey.

I've got a test scenario. I'm looking to copy from sourceDir to
targetDir where the entire targetDir (parents) doesn't exist. So I'm
trying to rsync and create the dir path at the same time.

I've tried to play with variations of the following and I'm missing something..

rsync -aq --rsync-path='mkdir -p /home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel
&& rsync' /home/test/.config/composer/vendor/laravel/
/home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel

rsync: mkdir "/home/webdev/composer/vendor/laravel" failed: No such
file or directory (2)
rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at main.c(664) [Receiver=3.1.3]

The source dir exists. The "/home/webdev" dir exists.

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the reply.

The TLDR; -- Trying to set up the vhost block to be able to access a
test site built on an app called "open social" from/basedon Drupal.
The app is https://github.com/goalgorilla/open_social

I have a "test" vhost that kind of works, -- uses
Alias/DirectoryBlock/DocumentRoot, but it kept generating redirect
errs. Someone on the OpenSocial slack channel said to get rid of that
and .. But didn't say how to implement a correct config file.

Trial/Error sometimes not the most efficient approach.

The test url that currently generates a 403 is:
http://161.35.180.212/social/


I've managed to generate the required files via Composer, and the
files are stored in the following dir:

/www/var/social

within the /www/var/social  (the files for open social are)

apache apache109 Jun 11 03:34 .

In order to test the app, I need to be able to have a valid
virtualhost to allow the user to access the site
http://1.2.3.4/??

the current   (doesn't work)!!
/etc/httpd/sites-available/virtualhosts.conf


# VirtualHost file to handle aliases


#Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
 #AllowOverride All
 #Order allow,deny
 #allow from all

#DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
 #Require all granted

# Set the default document root for Apache (if the URL
# doesn't start with "/foo" or "/oxwall")...
#drupal cat DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"
DocumentRoot "/var/www/social/html"


# Stick your host name and domain below (commented out for now)...
#ServerName somsiten...@somedomain.tld

# Define where the logs go and what they're called...
ErrorLog "logs/testsite-error_log"
CustomLog "logs/testsite-access_log" common


So, I'm trying to get the virtualhost/apache to match the
dir/tree/files for the open social app to test the app.

Re: running browser as user different than root

[bruce]

Hi Roberto

You are 'da man!

this worked >>>>  xhost si:localuser:test

using this in the "root" term window,

and then running the cmd to fire up the test firefox browser generated
the process.

when i now run "xhost" from the root term, i see the different values.
I suppose I can "safely" delete the added item with no damage!

thanks

I tried to implement your suggestion as follows:

logged in as root
in a "root" term window
echo $DISPLAY   (shows)
:0.0

xhost si:root:test

(generates)

root:test being added to access control list
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range
for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  109 (X_ChangeHosts)
  Value in failed request:  0x9
  Serial number of failed request:  7
  Current serial number in output stream:  9

which doesnt appear to "succeed"!

And yes, I know logging/running as root is "bad".

I'd still like to know how to resolve this issue, as opposed to just
saying don't do this.

running browser as user different than root

[bruce]

Hi.

Trying to understand/figure out some things.

I've logged in as root

I can start a browser -- FF, or chromium, no issue. (I know.. I
shouldn't. but I can.

However, if I fire up a term as another user, and then from the
cmdline, fire up chromium, I get an err msg

No protocol specified
 Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: :0

I've been researching trying to figure out how to resolve this.

Any thoughts/pointers?

Re: Captcha's are out of control

[bruce]

Hey Bob!

I'm not going to rant in all caps that this is off topic!! )

While this has nothing to do with tech at all, it is a break from the
horror of the daily newscasts.

And yeah, captchas are a royal/unnecessary pain. If your site is
getting hit by crawlers, and you have data you really don't want the
crawler to access, then I get it, but a number of sites appear to
throw the captcha up as a way to just be doing the in thing!

On the same point, I wonder why so many sites have decided to go the
route of paywalls. Not so long ago, I was more than able to skim
magazines at newsstands/libraries with no prob. I fully get not
wanting to provide access to your content in near realtime,  But I
have no clue why these sites don't ope up access a month or so later.

Hey Francis!!

much thanks.. so the grep "iZ" attribute was what was required. I now
get the list of files.

thanks!

xargs + grep+grep

[bruce]

Hi.

simple issue that I'm not quite seeing.

find /home -type f  ! -path "*/csvn/*"  ! -path "*/Android*/*" -name
"*.*"-print0  | xargs -0 grep 'repos'  | xargs -0 grep 'github'

So, I start at the top of the dir, I skip a few of the child dirs, and
I want to find files containing "repos" and "github".

The above cmd returns the err
xargs: argument line too long

Any pointers on my mistake?

Thanks

[389-users] Re: anonymous queries on second suffix subtrees

[Mc Laughlin David Bruce (ID BD)]

Hi, Mark.


Your questions and comments have pointed me in the right direction and solved 
several

mysteries about missing db files, etc.


I will remove both root suffixes and their respective databases and then 
re-create them using

dscreate to create the instance and using dsconf (with the "--create-suffix" 
option) to add the

 second root suffix.


Even with the https://directory.fedoraproject.org/docs/389ds/documentation.html 
site and the

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_directory_server/11/  
documentation,

the product is so big that it is difficult to get an overview.


I will not bother you again before the instance and its suffixes have been 
rebuilt.


Thanks for your help,

David

Hi, Mark.


I did not expect a reply so soon!


When I query as "Directory Manager", I get the expected result.


I used the setup-ds.pl script to create the o=ethz,c=ch root suffx.

You should be using dscreate to create your instance, not setup-ds.pl

I used "dsconf backend create" to add the second suffix (o=psi,c=ch).

Did you add any entries to o=psi,c=ch ?


The subtrees are not properly connected to their respective root suffixes.

Could this problem be caused by missing entries in the two "root suffix" 
databases?


[root@el-dap ~]#
[root@el-dap ~]# /usr/bin/ldapsearch -H ldap://el-dap.ethz.ch/ -LLL -x -b 
'o=psi,c=ch' '(ou=*)'
No such object (32)

So you did not initialize this suffix.  It is empty.

When creating the backend you could have created the top database node entry by 
adding the "--create-suffix" option:

# dsconf slapd-YOUR_INSTANCE backend create --suffix o=psi,c=ch --create-suffix

Note - dscreate or dsconf do not add any aci's by default.  You have to add the 
aci's after initializing the database with some data.

[root@el-dap ~]#



Anonymous queries  on the two subtrees (ou=staff & ou=student) on root suffix 
(o=ethz,c=ch)

return the expected result.

So searches on "ou=staff,o=ethz,c=ch" work?  But just searching on 
"o=ethz,c=ch" does not?  I'm getting confused because you keep changing which 
suffixes work or don't work.  First it was subtree's under o=psi,c=ch that 
didn't return any results, now it's different subtrees under o=ethz,c=ch

So if you are having issues with anything under "o=ethz,c=ch" then can you 
please run this search, and also clarify which subtrees work and don't work for 
anonymous searches under this suffix "o=ethz,c=ch":

# ldapsearch -D "cn=directory manager" -W -b "o=ethz,c=ch" aci=* aci

Thanks,
Mark



However, anonymous queries on the o=ethz,c=ch root suffix  also return no 
records.


with best regards,

David

First you don't need to restart the server when you add or change ACI's.  If 
you run the search as "cn=directory manager" does it return the results you 
expect?

Can you share all the ACI's you added to o=psi,c=ch subtrees?  Maybe gather all 
of them by using this search:

Hi.

Looking through lots of online sites for making changes/mods to
sshd_config files to harden/secure the process.

Would it be cool to post the changes here for comment? Also, anyone
have suggestions as well?

Things to monitor/scan for security on a Fed VM

[bruce]

Hi/Morning.

This is a continuation of my looking to nail down what should be
Monitored/Scanned to secure a Fed server/VM.

I've looked over a number of Monitor apps (Solarwinds/Nagios/Zabbix/etc).
Can't really find a good list of the things that should be monitored, so
I've compiled the following list.

I'm thinking the monitoring/scanning process needs to check for,
 or handle the following:
-user attempts to access a system/ssh interaction/- logins/access
there's a ddos on one of the VM/webapps
rootkit/file issue
possible intrusion attempts
 -for ports
 -for log files
 -for user accounts
files/dirs -perms/user owner
log files
system/services   -- required services running... invalid services disabled
cron
dirs/files/filesystem
website
db
config file issues
rootkit issues
malware issues
vulnerability issues   -- vuls.io
selinux
partitions for the drive
firewall

mysqld

httpd

nfs

sshd

-php valid
-python valid
-package scan
-pip scan
-pecl scan
-should the libs be scanned?
-how to scan/check for/alert on invalid apps running?

config files -- valid/invalid

Feel free to add or comment on anything I've listed.

Once I narrow down the list, I'll figure out which tool/dashboard to use
for the Monitoring/Scanning. I might have to also have a separate Dashboard
(ELK?) to handle the log analysis/display.

Thanks

Re: system monitoring/security - possibly off topic

Hey Mauricio,

researching Security Onion, never hear of "zeek'

>   >>> zeek? Security Onion?
>

I'm putting together a list of scanning tools that would run on the
"client" server, but I'm tying to wrap my head around how all of the
resulting data would be aggregated, and displayed by a master dashboad app.
I've seen OpenVAS and a few other apps that appear to offer the ability to
import security data, and to display it.

Any thoughts on this?

thanks

Re: system monitoring/security - possibly off topic

[bruce]

Hey Ed.

Thanks for the reply.

Regarding the security/monitoring issue.

Here's my use case:

I'm looking to have multiple servers.
Servers would be running different apps for different purposes.
All Servers running Fed
-DB Server -mysql/mariadb
-Server running webapps/httpd
-Servers running compute operations

All servers configured to run ssh - sshd_config properly configured to
limit access
All servers configured to run with minimal ports turned on
All servers with selinux

My goal would be to have a monitoring/security server/webapp
 that allows a user to quickly "see" if there's an issue
 with any of the servers/processes

I think it makes sense to check/monitor/be alerted if:

-there's a user attempt to access
-there's a ddos on one of the webapps
-there's a root/file issue
-there's a port access issue
-possible intrusion attempts
-weird services used
-any others???


possible software/apps to be installed for security
--rkhunter
--failtoban
--selinux
--clamav -- although not sure the proect would need a mail server/platform
--logMonitoring app (which one)
--app to check file/dir/user settings (which one)
--scanning app/service (which one)
 ---for ports
 ---for services
 ---for log files
 ---for user accounts


I think it makes sense to try to define, or get my head around the things
that should be checked out or monitored. Once I get these things nailed
down, I can figureout the "best" process to be able to monitor the items,
as well as display them in some sort of dashboard.


I've looked over a number of different sites for rhel/ubuntu/fedora/etc..
Most of the sites discuss hardening ssh, as well as looking over the
services/ports, and managing the users/files/dirs.

I'm thinking the things to check for::

Users/User Accounts
logins/access
ports
services/processes
files/dirs -perms/user owner
log files
Any other things that should be checked/examined/considered?

Once I can get a good list of high level things to check for/secure, I can
figure out the tools to use, as well as how to roll all of this up to some
sort of dashboard.

So my thought process will be:
1) Identify the high level things to check for/secure/monitor for the given
Server Type
2) Identify the tools to run the scans for the Server Type
3) Figure out how to roll the results for each server to a "central
monitoring/dashboard process"

Does this make sense?

Thoughts/comments welcome

Re: how to view files over the Internet?

[bruce]

Hey.

I know I'm coming into this late. Does your client have a "budget"? Is he
able/willing to allow users to access/view the docs via browser?

I'm fairly certain there are paid services that will get you what you're
looking for at a "reasonable" cost. You didn't say how many people (or how
many times, or how many docs) will go into the mix. I also think there
might be content web/mobile open source apps to allow docs to be
viewed/checked out  - with viewing via browser.

reason, I never thought of just retyping the cmd which may have resolved
the issue.

thanks  much appreciation!

Francis...

echo rsync -avz  /home/test/cat/test@192.168.125.133:/home/test/cat
| cat -A
rsync -avz M-BM- /home/test/cat/ test@192.168.125.133:/home/test/cat$

vs

echo rsync -avz  /home/test/cat/ test@192.168.125.133:/home/test/cat |
cat -A
rsync -avz /home/test/cat/ test@192.168.125.133:/home/test/cat$
this works!!

Re: rsync error... can i ask for help here??

[bruce]

wow

now. I'm officially in the twilight zone...

here's what i'm seeing...

rsync -avz  /home/test/cat/ test@192.168.125.133:/home/test/cat
test@192.168.125.133's password:
sending incremental file list
./
index.html
readme.txt
contactform/

as you can see.. the cmd above works..

this cmd doesn't!
rsync -avz  /home/test/cat/  test@192.168.125.133:/home/test/cat
test@192.168.125.133's password:
sending incremental file list
rsync: change_dir "/home/crawl_user/cat/ /home/test/cat" failed: No such
file or directory (2)

i've lined up the cmd that works with a cmd that doesn't.. and added spaces
between the initial dir and the "test,," to get the same "look"...

when i run the cmd that doesn't work.. it still doesn't work...
I'm wondering if there's some weird char being inserted..

Re: rsync error... can i ask for help here??

[bruce]

Hey John...

Yep. I've noticed that.. And been trying to figure out ust what the dang
err is trying to tell me... since I only had the initial dir!

However,, Since I tested what Francis asked me to test... I'm now able to
have the rsync working...

And I don't know what the diff is between the cmds..

As far as I can tell, the cmds are the same!

rsync -avz  /home/test/cat/ test@192.168.125.133:/home/test/cat

this works, in that the files of /home/test/cat (dir) get copied over to
the /home/test/cat dir on the remote side..

this is what i've done 100s of times in the past with other systems..
files.. etc..

no clue what my issue was.. which means I can't solve the issue!! which is
in and off itself a pain now!

test@192.168.125.133's password:
/home/test

Linus...

Umm.. I'm missing something here then...

I thought the OP was asking to run the basic ssh cmd and then to provide
the passwd

If I'm missing something.. what's the OP wanting me to run?

in other words, just what should I be running for >>> ssh
test@192.168.125.133 pwd

Hi Roger,

what does ssh  test@192.168.125.133 pwd   return?

Yeah, I had started to question if basic ssh was the issue!

ssh test@192.168.125.133
test@192.168.125.133's password:
Activate the web console with: systemctl enable --now cockpit.socket

Last failed login: Fri Apr 17 11:30:42 EDT 2020 from 192.168.125.1 on
ssh:notty
There were 2 failed login attempts since the last successful login.
Last login: Fri Apr 17 08:12:35 2020 from 192.168.125.1

works as it's supposed to .

baby steps!

Re: rsync error... can i ask for help here??

Hi Linus,

Tested your email reply.  Same error:!!

rsync -avz  /home/test/cat  test@192.168.125.133:
test@192.168.125.133's password:
sending incremental file list
rsync: change_dir "/home/test/ /home/test" failed: No such file or
directory (2)

sent 18 bytes  received 12 bytes  4.62 bytes/sec
total size is 0  speedup is 0.00
rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors)
(code 23) at main.c(1039) [sender=3.0.6]
[test@foo ~]$
[test@foo ~]$ rsync -avz  /home/test/cat  test@192.168.125.133:cat
test@192.168.125.133's password:
sending incremental file list
rsync: change_dir "/home/test/ /home/test" failed: No such file or
directory (2)

sent 18 bytes  received 12 bytes  4.62 bytes/sec
total size is 0  speedup is 0.00
rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors)
(code 23) at main.c(1039) [sender=3.0.6]

I'm grappling with trying to understand what rsync is doing/means regarding
the "change_dir" failing

rsync: change_dir "/home/test/ /home/test" failed: No such file or
directory (2)

the err is appearing to be regarding to something happening on the local
machine as opposed to the remote.

thanks

the weird thing:::
I'm running this as user "test"
I'm running from the "/home/test/cat" dir..

could this be some sort of permissions thing??
/home

Re: rsync error... can i ask for help here??

[bruce]

ok..

as user "test" on the local machine. there's a test on the remote as well
each local/remote has the dir /home/test/cat, and /home/test/cat1
all dirs are owned by user 'test' and have '777' to make sure no weird errs
happen due to owner/perms

this works:
rsync -avz  /home/test/cat  /home/test/cat1

this doesn't
rsync -avz  /home/test/cat  test@192.168.125.133:/home/test/cat

generates error::
test@192.168.125.133's password:
sending incremental file list
rsync: change_dir "/home/ /home/test" failed: No such file or directory (2)

sent 18 bytes  received 12 bytes  5.45 bytes/sec
total size is 0  speedup is 0.00
rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors)
(code 23) at main.c(1039) [sender=3.0.6]

unless rsync cant be used with ssh/password.. can't figure out why this is
failing
