[CentOS] Centos 5x ipv6 sendmail smtps

2008-10-14 Thread Tony Wicks
Hi all, I'm working my way through v6ing our network. I have a mail
server with the default dovecot/sendmail configuration working happily
for pop3, pop3s, imap, imaps, smtp, and smtps on v4. I have managed to
get all but smtps working on v6.  Following is the relevant sendmail.mc
-

 

DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=MTA-v4, Family=inet, Name=MTA-v6, Family=inet6')

DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtps, Name=TLSMTA, M=s')dnl

 

I've googled to no avail as yet, anyone know what the relevant config
would be ?

 

thanks

RE: [CentOS] RH's servers breached

 So there are new packages anyway in spite of the other bits.
 
 Hi all, have I missed something or is there a CentOS update for 5x but
none
 for 4x ? I've made sure my mirror is synced and looked around at a few
 others but can't seem to see an update ?

I just fired up my 4.6 and did yum update. No ssh packages, so the
problem is not yours.

Do any of the maintainers have a comment on the 4x SSH update availability ?
I have a couple of SSH bastion servers that I have shut down until the
update is out just in case so was wondering as to when it would turn up.

thanks

 I see an announcement for the packages on the announce list, but no more
 information anywhere from the CentOS team (Planet or ML).  Are these
 packages just to be safe or was there something actually found?

There's a CVE associated with a different (unrelated) bug in how ssh
handled forwarded x11 sessions. The upstream announcement is here -
http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2008-0855.html.

So there are new packages anyway in spite of the other bits.

RE: [CentOS] African IP addresses list

2008-07-01 Thread Tony Wicks


I would like to add something, as a South African citizen. South Africa, 
is NOT part of Africa for that matter, it's a republic on it's own. It's 
almost like saying Let's ban America, cause someone in Mexico spammed 
me. South Africa, which is on the 196/8 range does a LOT of business 
overseas in many countries, and I do want to warn that you could loose a 
lot of good business due to this practice.


Most of the fraud you experience could come from Nigeria, or one of the 
other central  western Africa countries. To ban a whole continent 
because of problems some countries cause could be problematic.


For that matter is China a different country from Russia, from 
Switzerland, even though they share the same land mass

I need to put my 2c in here. I'm from New Zealand, we are a first world 
democratic country (the first in the worlds to give the vote to ALL 
adults I may mention). I have had the misfortune many of times of being 
unable to transact business because people from the US in their 
ignorance think, that New Zealand, isn't that part of Australia, which 
is right next to Asia, can't do business with those Asians, they will 
rip me off. Now sometimes people from the US have asked me why people in 
the other parts of the world get a bit annoyed at the the only country 
that is free and true if the good old US of A attitude, and well here 
you go as an example. Lets ban all of Africa because someone from 
Nigeria is a scammer. Africa is a pretty big place, and you know what, 
I've met many South Africans that are real nice (even employed a few). 
I've always been someone who defends America when people run it down, 
but it is a two way street, don't treat a whole country as criminals 
because you don’t know the difference between one side of a continent 
from another, its kind of insulting you know. And some day you might 
well need the rest of us, you never know.

RE: Re: [CentOS] extremely slow network connection

2008-06-16 Thread Tony Wicks
The computer is on a local switch together with an older computer, which 
in turn communicates well at 25 MB/s with all the rest of the world.

At Dell's they propose a hardware support, however not for that model.
Nevertheless they support officially CentOS.
That's why I asked whether anyone had encoutered the same problem 
already, and could perhaps provide a solution.


Yours,
  Peter


I would recommend looking at your network speed/duplex negotiation with 
your switch. I suspect your switch may be full duplex and your network 
card half or vice versa. Try forcing your network card to various 
speed/duplex settings (and your switch if it is a decent managed unit) 
and re-try your testing. This is the most common cause of network 
performance issues.


cheers
