podrías hacer lo siguiente:

Si tu switch Cisco está haciendo VLAN, entonces podrías usar un server Linux
en el cual esté corriendo Zebra como puente de esas VLANs, allí podrías
poner el MRTG para que reporte el tráfico de la troncalización.

Espero haberte ayudado.

I'll put in a plug for a software project that I am developer/contributor
for, OpenVAS (Open Vulnerability Assessment Scanner).

http://www.openvas.org

If you configure OpenVAS to use a SSH enabled login account, it will tell
you which security patches you are missing.  If you do just a remote scan,
it will give you an incomplete list of missing patches.

It is cross-platform too.

I look at this a while back, well over a year i think now. And the 
problem was that openvas does not actually test for the Vuln but it 
tries to use content to assume the exploits will not work. That is a 
very risky situation to get into.

Absolutely, I plan on putting the code onto a public vcs repo soon. I 
want to have the basic harness working before going public though.

The 'core' of this is an automated test harness that would be used for 
the centos-distro packages at pre-build, post-build and pre-release stages.

In terms of a proper security assessment; this is a debate that we have
within the OpenVAS developer community and I am actually on your side with
this.  I won't bother the Centos list with more details than that unless
anyone specifically wants me to go into greater details except to say that
this is not technical limitation, just a policy of the authors who are
writing the testing scripts.

However, in terms of simply looking to see what known patches are missing,
the current method of assessment is sufficient and complete.  The question
assumes that patches already exist and therefore they can be queried for in
the RPM database to see if they exist (with the needed info encoded in the
release strings).

If we are talking about missing patches that do NOT exist, IOW, looking for
vulnerabilities that the Centos devs or upstream have not addressed yet...
then other tools may be more appropriate.

Thanks. But it doesn't seem to have MySQL Workbench.

Some update:

From the IRC Channel:
hi rajsand, yes, akojima managed to get it done, but there are a few
minor things that need to be disabled as centoss gtk version is rather
old

repo: no, rpm: soon (if everything goes as planned, tomorrow),

rajsand, but if you are on in about an hour we can maybe hand you
over some pre-release testbuild

So fingers crosses ...

I also wanted to know how to enable blackhole engine in mysql as
centos ships only with MyISAM, MEMORY, InnoDB, BerkeleyDB adn
MRG_MYISAM engines by default. S I guess I must absolutely setup my
own building from source thingie.

BTW, just a small doubt: will using the SRPMs and building a package
from that break any compatibility etc. etc. say just enabling
blackhole and NDB engine in mysql and rebuilding it?

Thanks for all the responses

You can add rules on-the-fly at runtime and then use service iptables save 
to save them. This will be automatically loaded on a service iptables 
start. But it's harder to maintain as a script of your own. I prefer to 
write a script, run it (which includes flushing etc.) and when it's ok I

We just went through this a month or so ago on this list. The answer is
that it is *very* much *not* a good idea. Do your backups, do a new

When you untar as root, the UID/GID is always set to that of the user
who created the tar file.  Only if you untar as a normal user does it
change the ownership to the user who untarred it.

 this is where 'RH-Firewall-1-INPUT' chain comes into picture (user
 defined rules).

 Any explanation or resource link on this would be really helpful.


 Try using webmin - there are rpm available for it and the interface
 helps deal with the cryptic items that make up an iptable filter.
 The reason for the RH-Firewall-1-INPUT chain means you can use the
 same rule set for multiple items - i.e. both input and forward.
 I also find it useful to create different chains for different network
 traffic.  For example, I have a chain that allows all web access - ports
 80, 443, 8080 etc.  I have a different chain for file-share access -
 e.g. NFS and Samba.  This way, I can watch what is happening with those
 chains specifically, without wading through the significant output of
 the command iptables -nvL.

 By using different chains, I can issue a command like watch -d iptables
 -nvL CentOS-MAIL to monitor network traffic on related ports.  This has
 helped me many times in the past to see where network traffic is being
 blocked or given access.

 Just my 2c worth :)

 You can add rules on-the-fly at runtime and then use service iptables save
 to save them. This will be automatically loaded on a service iptables
 start. But it's harder to maintain as a script of your own. I prefer to
 write a script, run it (which includes flushing etc.) and when it's ok I
 save that result.

 Kai


Currently my approach is similar to yours, which is shown in the wiki page also.

I didn't get what you mean by - 'But it's harder to maintain as a
script of your own.'. You are also using script, right?
I use git for maintaining versions (not a public repo).

Right, that's the uid and gid of whoever tar'd the files up, which clearly

Untarring *which* files? The standard behavior of tar is to keep the 
permissions etc. of the original. So, if they were owned by user x when 
tarring they will get untarred for user x. If you want to change this have a 
look at the section  Handling of file attributes: of tar --help.

Unless you have some specific reason to run the standalone server, I'd 
recommend installing mod_dav_svn and using apache as the server (just 
edit /etc/httpd/conf.d/subversion.conf with the repository location). 
Also, the stock version supplied with Centos is very old.  There's a 
more current version maintained in the rpmforge repo.

I built a system based on centos 5.3, now i'm planing to move to 5.4.
To do it I rebuilt all rpms making some changes.

When I use a common centos 5.3, it automatically detects that 5.4
is available and move update for it when i run yum update. How
does this work? How the system detects new version and update
for it?

I thought centos-release rpm just update repo for it, but I saw this

I believe it gets the updates from /5/  on the yum repos, not /5.x/
so when /5/ has rolled to be a link to /5.4/ instead of /5.3/, voila,

Exactly.  The 5.3 and 5.4 versions are a just collection of
updates.  When the updates that make up 5.4 are pushed out to the repos,
you get updated to 5.4 on your next yum update.

If you're concerned about maintaining a script for your iptables
configuration, consider the Shoreline firewall ( www.shorewall.net ) to
manage your firewall.

The things I like about Shorewall is that it uses human-readable config
files, AND it generates iptables chains that are much more
comprehensible than the other stuff that I've seen.

Naturally, this is just my $0.02 (US) worth.

[CentOS] Bind data directory borked on update from 5.3 to 5.4

2010-01-19 Thread Bowie Bailey
I updated my secondary DNS server from 5.3 to 5.4 today.  After the
update, named would not start.  A bit of investigation found that all of
the files in /var/named/chroot/var/named/data had been turned into links
to themselves!

Fortunately, since this is a secondary DNS, all I had to do was delete
the files, replace the root hints file and let everything else copy back
over from the master.  If this had been the master, I would have had to
restore from backups.

Has anyone else seen this problem?

No. I usually see some change in the permissions 
(/var/named/chroot/var/named/ loses group write and named logs some 
complaints but still works) when updating named. I think I've seen this 
happen several times and with the last update as well. I've not taken this 
serious as it didn't stop named from working. I assume the write 
permissions are only necessary for client DNS updates which I do not use.
I remember there was a more serious problem a year or so ago, when an 
update stopped named from working because it overwrote some files.
So, the upgrading experience has been less smooth with named than with 
other packages, but I haven't seen what you experienced.

 My question is not *how* to update, but how the rpm detects a

 5.4 version.



 I believe it gets the updates from /5/  on the yum repos, not /5.x/
 so when /5/ has rolled to be a link to /5.4/ instead of /5.3/, voila,
 its getting the components from there.


 Exactly.  The 5.3 and 5.4 versions are a just collection of
 updates.  When the updates that make up 5.4 are pushed out to the repos,
 you get updated to 5.4 on your next yum update.

To be more precise, any particular OS version (5.3, 5.4, etc...) is a
collection of packages.  Each package has its own version number that
is totally separate from the OS version.  All of the package version
information is stored in the RPM database, and the yum tool looks at
this database and compares package versions to those on the centos.org
servers.  If it finds packages that need updating, yum lists them as
having an update available.

An OS version is a snapshot of package versions that someone (redhat)
has decided to stick a version number onto.  So centos 5.3 is just as
list of packages at a certain version.  However, as soon as it is
released, any package might have an update to it.  OS versions tend to
have updates that make some bigger changes to the system, as opposed
to typical updates that are mainly security fixes.

The centos servers manage the OS versions by making a link from 5 -
5.4, for example.  The files in /etc/yum.repos.d define how yum finds
the servers and updates.

Re: [CentOS] Bind data directory borked on update from 5.3 to 5.4

 I updated my secondary DNS server from 5.3 to 5.4 today.  After the

 to themselves!

 Fortunately, since this is a secondary DNS, all I had to do was delete
 the files, replace the root hints file and let everything else copy back
 over from the master.  If this had been the master, I would have had to
 restore from backups.

 Has anyone else seen this problem?

Do you have the caching-nameserver package installed?  I've heard this
can cause problems with files getting overwritten.

If you install the caching-nameserver package it assumes you don't have 
any other configuration (that's that point of it being a 
caching-nameserver).

 originally used in a Cisco Pix to assist with crypto functions under part

I think you should check with openssl guys...
