Not realy, I had allready found this:



but this post is from Mai 2011, hence rather old!

I switched my whole network to IPv6  last  week  and  now,  I  run  into
because a bunch of tools do not support IPv6  correctly.   Also  I  have
encountered a bunch of bugs.

I would like to share a little of the gianed experience since I started
setting this up some 3 weeks ago.

First up, a setup like a mailserver is no ordinary task and extensive
knowlegde is required to follow even the simplest of guides.

That being said, I now know why I did'nt got a reply from the list, the
task is to big to setup through a mailing list from the bottom and up,
and for the most part it's not related to Debian. My apolygies for
that, I did'nt realized it at the time.

In the end I got it up and running with the extensive use of Dovecots
wiki[1], so thanks to the folks over there, and thanks for your time
here.

Cheers

Because it's "/sbin/fdisk" and "/sbin" isn't in $PATH.

That's a common issue when starting with Debian (not sure with other
distributions) : /sbin and /usr/sbin directories are not in the user
path.

You can use whereis command to find where a command is located :
$ whereis fdisk
fdisk: /sbin/fdisk /usr/share/man/man8/fdisk.8.gz

Anyway, a normal user can't use fdisk, so try login as root, or "su -
root" in a terminal.

If you want your user to be able to access easily /sbin and /usr/sbin
directories, add this line in the .bashrc file in the home directory
of your user :

export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

By the way, /usr/game isn't either in the path.

Become root first, resp.

$ su -c "fdisk -l"

or

$ su
# fdisk -l

you also can set up sudo and then run

$ sudo fdisk -l

or you can be reckless and make fdisk available for users without the
needed permissions.

The key issue is what method of access you are using to the Windows machine.
Windows file sharing is perhaps easiest, in which case you can copy stuff
via 'samba' on the Linux host. 'smbclient //wherever/foo, put some-file'

Typically, you mount a share from the windows system (filesystem type
cifs or smbfs) and then just cp.

I don't see how that would help.

Strangely I had purged samba long long time ago, why I still have the
smbclient here,

# dpkg --get-selections | grep samba
samba-commoninstall

# dpkg --get-selections | grep smbclient
libsmbclient:amd64  install
smbclient   install

For security reason, shall I purge the three?

I sincerely doubt it.

Anyway, the motherboard won't tell about the micro capabilities, you 
better run "cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep -i lm" to find out (or "cat /proc/
cpuinfo | grep 'model name'" and then search for your micro specs at the 
manufacturer database).

> I will install a bigmem kernel. Thanks.

You can't... remember that your motherboard does not support it (just 
kidding) ;-P

I find it a good decision if you don't want to install your system from 
scratch nor having additional headaches :-)

This or smbfs as suggested by Jochen seems to be the way to go.

These are not related: smbclient is a separated package.

Well, that post tells what we already know, that IPv6 is still an ongoing

Yes, IPv6 is still a bit lacking of support for some tools. You can consider 
yourself lucky that at least it works at some level in nmap ;-)

An IP address is like your (real) home address. 
You are free to send a letter without your true home address on it. You
can spoof it. But then, don't expect a reply: if one is sent, the
recipient would be the one whom address has been spoofed by you.

ssh is like a mail correspondence between you and the remote server: if
you spoof your IP address, you wont be able to use it because you wont
get any reply.

As well, I guess knowing a home address has never helped any robber to
break into a house.

You are running SMB (ports 135, 139 and 445). All you have to do is
configuring directories to share (under Windows) and then either mount
this directory using smbfs or use directly your file browser (nautilus
by default under Gnome).

There are tutorials on the net.

You mean to hide your ssh remote connecting IP address? If you have 
several outgoing network devices you can choose between them to stablish 
a connection by means of "-b" argument.

Also, Google seems to return a bunch of results:

http://en.lmgtfy.com/?q=ssh+fake+ip+address

Anyway, I wonder what's what you fear of. You can hide your originating 
IP but your username and your activities can be still tracked at least by 
the admins >:-)

System crash, or lockup

[Marc Shapiro]

I have posted about this before, and one suggestion was that I have a 
power supply problem.  This seems possible, even probably, for some of 
my problems, but not, I think, for all of them.  Also, I have noticed 
additional types of problems since my last post.


Please note:  I have purchased a new power supply (with a higher wattage 
than my old one) but have not had time to install it, yet.



This is on an up to date Squeeze box running gnome.

Problem 1:
The system goes down, the screen goes blank and then says it is not 
receiving a signal.  This sounds like a power supply problem and I 
expect it will go away once I get the new power supply installed.


Problem 2:
The system simply locks up completely, with no notice, or warning. There 
is no response to the mouse, or keyboard.  Prior to having hard drive 
problems (which caused me to replace the HD and reinstall) this would 
sometimes happen.  When it did, I could usually ssh in do 'sudo chvt' 
and then I would be able to use the desktop again.  On checking out the 
system, I would find that X had simply gone away on the VT that was 
displayed (but the screen still showed everything as it had been, just 
unresponsive.  Since the reinstall, I have been unable to ssh to the box 
in the first place. I get a 'no route' error on my laptop when I try 
(yes, I can ssh in at other times).  The only solution is a hard 
reboot.  This does not seem to me to be power supply related.


Problem 3 (NEW):
The system mostly locks up.  The mouse still moves, but there is no 
response to mouse clicks.  The gnome panels go completely blank. Running 
programs do not respond to the keyboard, but I can 'chvt' to get to 
another X session (there are usually three sessions going at once on 
vt7, vt8 and vt9 for myself, my wife and my daughter.  I can also chvt 
to console sessions.  Once I have switched to another session, if I kill 
startx and xinit for the locked session (or sessions - sometimes two 
sessions will do this at the same time.  I think that once, all three X 
sessions locked up this way but I was still able to 'fix' things from a 
console session.)  then the sessions start to work, again.  All 
applications have been killed, but the gnome panels are back to normal 
and the session responds to the mouse and keyboard.  This sounds like a 
gnome problem.  Has anyone else had a similar problem?


I hope to get the time to install the power supply and (fingers crossed) 
solve prolem #1 tonight.  Does anyone have any ideas on the cause of 
problems #2 and #3?  I really don't expect the new power supply to solve 
them and they are just as much disruption as #1.


Please help.  This is very annoying.

Debian Wheezy has now a full support for multi-arch (well... if you use
apt-get... last time I tried, aptitude failed). Some stuffs may need to
be ironed out but as far as I am concerned, skype works very well with
all the dependencies under my debian 32/64bits hybrid. All you need to
do is adding [arch=amd64,i386] between deb and your mirror URL
in /etc/apt/source.list

If you have SSHd and that is what you are worried about, grep ssh from
/var/log/auth.log .
I'm not sure does that require loglevel being "VERBOSE" in sshd_config.

And you might also want to install something like SSHGuard (package
sshguard) to protect your SSHd and other services, which it protects
from attackers. http://www.sshguard.net/

Fortunately I use "nmap" in a PHP5 function and can  replace  it  easily
temprary by another function which track the whole IPv6 Block  IP-by-IP,
but this takes ages and resources as the hell...  Exspecialy if you have
only 10-20 physical servers and the rest virtuell.   You  do  not  know,
which IPs are in use and have to track the whole network.

"nmap" was the fastest solution to find out, whether an  IP  is  active,
has and FQDN associated and the MAC address of the NIC.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening

I don't use Squeeze by myself, but Squeeze doesn't get updates very
often, because it's the stable release.

It will get security updates, and you can see announcements about them
if you subscribe to http://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce/ .

No it's not, it's still secret enough for averaged usage. Only a curt is
able to allow that your IP becomes as open as your "(real) home address"
and that just to a small group of known people. Everybody has a right of
private sphere and IP addresses keep private sphere. If you plan to bomb
the Deutsche Parlament, than don't worry about security issues regarding
to the IP address. If so, you need completely different security, but
hiding your IP. If you, Lina, worry stalking from an ex-boyfriend, than
the IP address is something that he doesn't need, since he knows too
much about you, that is much more informing, how and where you live
today. Conspiration, stalking etc. does happen, but usually nobody needs
an IP. Idiots as lawyers need an IP, to sue fans of mainstream
pop-rock-bands. The Federal (German) Intelligence Service prefers
profilers.

Read the magazine "conspiracy theorist today" :p.

How to enlarge LUKS partition ?

[J. B]

Dear list,

Is there anyone who is successful increasing LUKS partition ?
I have 2 physical partitions /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2.
There is 800 GB free disk space (un-partitioned) between sda1 & sda2
Whole /dev/sda2 is dedicated to a LUKS partition which holds a LVM.
I have tried with gparted to increase /dev/sda2 but there is no support to 
increase luks.
How can I increase sda2, so that I can later execute cryptsetup resize ?

Thanks

That should be enough for smbclinet to do the job.

smbclient //windows_machine/your_share -U your_windows_username

And then some basic commands:

ls → list files/folders

("man smbclient" for more info/options)

Updates to Squeeze are rare simply because the system is stable. Even 
Wheezy updates aren't as frequent as they were months ago.


There were a couple of updates in the last week for Squeeze. However you 
should have received them no matter which mirror you use. Here's my 
sources.list for reference:


# main mirror for regular updates
deb http://ftp3.nrc.ca/debian/ squeeze main
deb-src http://ftp3.nrc.ca/debian/ squeeze main

# security updates
deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main

# squeeze-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://ftp3.nrc.ca/debian/ squeeze-updates main
deb-src http://ftp3.nrc.ca/debian/ squeeze-updates main

Obviously, you probably use a different mirror but you should have 
security and squeeze-updates somewhere in your sources.

This is the first time I know the auth.log

172.21.48.161 is not the ip of any servers I connected to.
and for ssh I use public keys to connect to sever, don't use password.
For the whole day I didn't shut down the laptop, 172.21.50.108 is the
ip, and furthermore I checked
# more syslog | grep 172.21.48.161
# more syslog.1 | grep 172.21.48.161
my laptop has never been bound to this IP before.

I don't know shall I be a bit appalled or not.

Re: Mic. and softphones [was Voice redirection: from mic. to speakers on wheezy laptop].

Good time of the day, Camaleón.

May other OS components cause this? Though I do not know what. :o)
 
> In brief: consider testing a different SIP/VOIP program.

I have searched Debian on soft phones and found 

ihu (would call sip for me)

linphone - fails to run w/

ALSA lib conf.c:4687:(snd_config_expand) Unknown parameters 0
ALSA lib control.c:951:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL default:0

and

sflphone - calls but I do not here sound though all volumes on ALSA
mixer were high.

And I saw no more soft phones in Debian from repo.s.

So far, ekiga is the best option for me, and I would say, most
comfortable its GUI comparing w/ the above.

But was is bad to me w/ ekiga is - its doc.s do not specify my problem
- as what is expected to not work and therefore a fix is offered -
  works for me and therefore the fix works not for me - though the
  problem is listed by those fix makers but diagnostic is
  applicable for me and so their solution.

Thus, both modes - mono and stereo, 8/16 kHz work w/ my SB:

$ arecord -D plughw:0,0 -c 1 -r 16000 -f S16_LE - | aplay -D plughw:0,0
-c 1 -r 16000 -f S16_LE -

BTW, as a workaround w/ latency for redirection of my voice (from mic.
to speakers) :o) Not what I wanted, but better than nothing.

But ekiga does not echos my voice though as I have mentioned in other
messages - mic. volume reflects my speech.

OK. Thank You. I just would not install software from non-debian
repo.s. In case I will move it to a VM, then I will try it, though do

That's what I think is bad in DEs: they develop their software only in
conjunction w/ whole DE instead of making working standing alone
functionality - like konsole or kate from KDE, ekiga, evince from
gnome, etc. Who prevents them from feeding command line parameters to
the GUI programs - at least?!

I will look for ekiga list - may they will shed some light on the problem.

Re: [OT] Is it possible to hide the ip in ssh connection

[Lars Noodén]

It looks like it is possible to use Tor as a proxy:

http://www.howtoforge.com/anonymous-ssh-sessions-with-tor

If this document is correct, it is very easy to set up.  That would
obfuscate the ip number you are connecting from by adding a jump in the
middle.  The target server would only see that last step.

/Lars

What? :-?

I can see a couple of answers wich provide some tips to scan an IPv6 range 
of addresses but as I have not nmap installed in the system where I'm now I

I agree this is a "must have" feature but you know, devels have their 
own priorities for coding, featuring and fixing. Funny thing is that everybody 
(institutions, companies, hardware manufacturers...) encourage the switch to 
the new IPv6 stack but the hidden costs for the change is still too high.

You should be able to use any partitioning tool. AFAIK, gparted tries
not only to resize the partition, but containers and filesystems as
well. Without support for LVM, it apparently doesn't even try to resize
at least the partition.

I'd use parted (without being a big friend of its interface).

You need to ask, not "what is", but "who is". More specifically:

$ whois 172.21.48.161
[...]
NetRange:   172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
CIDR:   172.16.0.0/12
OriginAS:
NetName:PRIVATE-ADDRESS-BBLK-RFC1918-IANA-RESERVED
NetHandle:  NET-172-16-0-0-1
Parent: NET-172-0-0-0-0
NetType:IANA Special Use
[...]

In other words, it's someone else on your network.

So I am under regular attacks recently, very gentle attack, only tried
few times each day?

How do I know who has this IP address? why s/he didn't change?

unbelievable, hope I am wrong here.

For me it looks like a bot, which is trying to guess usernames and
passwords to your system.
If you had sshguard or something similar installed, you would also see
message about that host being banned, because of failed authentications.

I have just installed the sshguard,

I checked the time of the attempt connection from this ip, it's quite
regular. more like some program doing those things.

The second question is that for those days, the attacker should think of
renew its ip address. not from the same one.

It could be but I can't guess what. 

The kernel version? Sure, but sound is working fine from the command line 
utilities and also from another programs (e.g., gnome-sound-recorder).

The network card? My Lenny system uses a wired card while the netbook 
uses a wireless adapter but I wouldn't give a penny for that argument.

I've never had Ekiga echoing my voice, that's for sure. And not just 
Ekiga but any other capture audio application I can remember. I don't 
think this is the default, though, so you will have to fight hard to get 
that working for you :-)

But we don't know is the attacker a person or a program, which is

Yes, it's more like a program. but the owner in this long period has
never shutdown the computer, just a bit surprised that it keeps the same
ip address.

Re: How to enlarge LUKS partition ?

[tv.deb...@googlemail.com]

On 20/08/2012 16:53, J. B wrote:


Dear list,

Is there anyone who is successful increasing LUKS partition ?
I have 2 physical partitions /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2.
There is 800 GB free disk space (un-partitioned) between sda1&  sda2
Whole /dev/sda2 is dedicated to a LUKS partition which holds a LVM.
I have tried with gparted to increase /dev/sda2 but there is no support to 
increase luks.
How can I increase sda2, so that I can later execute cryptsetup resize ?

Thanks


Hi, I resized LUKS containers on several occasions, without lvm on top 
but it shouldn't be much more difficult.
I usually operate from a live-cd, any will do as long as there is 
cryptsetup/lvm/whatever-filesystem-you-use support, or that you can 
install it.
Close LUKS container if open (unmount partition, close lvm first if 
needed), fire up fdisk to destroy the partition that support the LUKS 
container, and recreate it with the desired size. fdisk commands are "d" 
(destroy), choose partition number, then "n" (new), type of partition, 
beginning and ending of new partition, and finally "w" to write changes 
to disk.


Open the LUKS container, resize it to fill the new partition 
("cryptsetup resize $container-name")


Now you'll need to resize the lvm layer. Someone more familiar with lvm 
may fill in this stage for you, Google or "man lvm" can do that too.


When done activate the lv and resize filesystem ("resize2fs"), and 
finally "fsck" the filesystem and eventually mount it to check that 
everything is in good order.


The only mildly tricky part is to get your numbers right (partition 
number and size) in fdisk.


Cautious penguin says: Write down exact commands for each step before 
you proceed for the first time, and refresh your backup.

Too few attempts, none succeeded. Something on your network might be
misconfigured. If you really want to be safe with ssh, be sure root
login is disable, switch to certificate based authentication and disable
password authentication.

Is that on a personal network? Can you access your router logs?

Not necessarily: my router for instance associates IP addresses with MAC
addresses in a static way.

I didn't follow the thread. I recommend to use some network protocol
analyzer, OTOH such software can become an additional security risk,
e.g. http://wiki.wireshark.org/Security

I followed the instruction from link, but during connection it showed me:

[warn] Got SOCKS5 status response '4': host is unreachable
/bin/bash: line 0: exec: connect: not found
ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host

kinda of tricky?

Hi J,

no luck with parted. It throws error "couldn't detect filesystem"

For a clean, easy job with a few files, yes, I'd go with puTTY. PuTTY is
fine for low volumes, or you can probably find WinSCP which also uses
ssh. PuTTY will not use OpenSSH keys (or it wouldn't last time I tried)
but it will generate keys which OpenSSH can use. Some Windows FTP
clients will also do SCP if pushed.

If you have full control of non-domain Windows workstations, and many
files to move, then samba is probably a good bet. I've had trouble with
Windows domains, which tend to insist on higher security levels than a
typical Linux samba server. I think samba tends to run about two
server generations behind Microsoft.

Finally, the RDP protocol does permit mapping local hard drive
partitions into the client session, though I've never tried from a
Linux client, I don't know if any can do it. That would presumably also
use samba, but in a different manner than a straight network
connection. That may be disabled by group policy in a domain
environment, as it does constitute a significant security risk.

Re: [OT] Is it possible to hide the ip in ssh connection

[Ralf Mardorf]

Now I read some more mails of this thread.

It's not surprising that everybody connected to the Internet is
attacked. "authentication failure" doesn't lead to a serious issue, but
vice versa it says the attacks were useless. And I'm sure, they will be
useless in the future too.

Lina, perhaps you are "oversensitive". Understandable, but less good for
your blood pressure ;).

Sometimes "less is more".

I know at least one person who forced "auto-logout" for root terminal
sessions, if root didn't use the terminal for a minute ;).

Such thoughts aren't "paranoid", but they IMHO are "oversensitive".

2 Cents,
Ralf

A DHCP client will normally remember its IP address, even if the lease
has expired, and on the next connection will request it again. If the
server hasn't issued it to anyone else, it will normally comply with the
request. Both server and client can be configured not to do this, but
in a Windows network it will probably happen to avoid too much need for
scavenging out-of-date DNS records. Assuming the link between DNS and
DHCP has been set up properly.

Or it may be a configured reservation in the DHCP server i.e. some form
of server itself. Or the client can be explicitly configured to request
that address, when it is available, but there's very little reason to
do that when a reservation is a guaranteed method.

Even if the attacker in this case is a human, it may be difficult or
impossible to override the network policies. Configuration of
networking is limited to people with admin credentials, unprivileged
users cannot even issue a DHCP renewal request other than by rebooting
the machine.

The quick answer here is to try: host , which will turn up
the hostname of the offending machine if the local DNS server is
properly set up. Or to at least gain the MAC address of the machine, try
inserting an iptables rule on your machine to log incoming ssh
connections.

e.g in your INPUT chain, just before the ssh -j ACCEPT command:

iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j LOG --log-level debug
--log-prefix "SSH IN:"

which will normally log to syslog and also /var/log/debug. I'd have
thought the network admin would keep a list of MAC addresses on the
network. If fact, the easiest answer of all is for the admin to look at
the DHCP and DNS server records.

Or there are programs which will scan the network for hostnames, MAC
addresses and open ports, but I couldn't possibly suggest the use of
such software, which may well be a hanging offence in some places. On
the other hand, they're harbouring an ssh worm...

The package connect-proxy contains the utility connect.  That has to be
installed.  You might also consider using Vidalia to manage Tor.

Or just add the intruder's address in place of xxx.etc in
/etc/init.d/iptables.rules:

iptables -I INPUT -s xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -j DROP

Works only for the one, of course.

Re(2): No Sound Card found on Testing Install

[peasthope]

This morning in accordance with the last paragraph in 
  http://wiki.debian.org/DebianMultimedia/FAQ 
I removed the line 
 deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org squeeze main non-free
from /etc/apt/sources.list .

After updating the system and rebooting, Iceweasel produced no sound.  
According to http://www.opensrc.org/FAQ026, the following 
/etc/asound.conf should make the C-Media USB Headphone Set 
the default sound device.  No such luck.  Iceweasel still produces no sound.  
Either the audio data is sent to the SiS chip, which has no speaker, or 
something 
more obscure happens.  In Twinkle, sound is fine as always. 

Pertinent information follows.  Suggestions welcome.
Thanks,  ... Peter E.

I thought using tor was a joke :( or a hint, that too much security at
some point really is too much. I don't have much knowledge about the
Internet, but I'm sure tor in this case (IMO in any case) is idiotic.
Sorry. I used tor myself, around the time of Suse 9.0 or 10.0?! dunno,
just for surfing the web. It's not usable for serious work.

Tor is intended for privacy, not security, and fulfills that reasonably
well when used for web browsing.  I'm not sure though of a use-case for
combining it with SSH beyond the obvious 'because I can'

I experienced tor as to slow, just for using it with a browser, a long
time ago. It might be faster today. Off-list, somebody with perhaps some
knowledge, mentioned "to slow" too, regarding to the usage that is
wanted in this case.

man in the middle attack ?

[Dr Beco]

Dear linuxers,


Today I registered a lot of students in the class, and 4 hours later I
was in home and got a message one of them could not log in.

So I tried and got this message:


@@@

What should I do, or where should I look, to understand this problem?

Can I log in with my account remotely to see the problem, or should I
better log in locally?

If you don't tell me what exactly you are doing, I cannot tell you what
you are doing wrong.

Anyway, a minute of googling suggests that parted cannot be used to do
what you want, I was wrong about that. But the Ubuntu formums have a
fairly extensive howto about topic:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4530641

If your filesystem is not system-essential you do not need to boot off a
live CD/DVD. And I would skip the step that involves creating a dummy
partition that gets overwritten with random data.

Just to clarify on this situation:

I have a cable connection that is rated at 100MB/s at full capacity.
I specifically asked what the lowest speed would be, that I could expect
to experience, when I took it on from an ADSL2+ connection that I tracked
at 8 BYTES/s at one stage, and they said 100Kb/s (really!).

I regularly log 40-47Kb/s on updates..

Read this message, it explains exactly what might have happened. Did you
change the host key? Does the DNS name (on the connecting client!) still
point to the correct system? Which host key do you get when you connect?

> Can I log in with my account remotely to see the problem, or should I

If you suspect that the system has been tampered with, do not enter any
passwords on this system before taking it offline. If you can log in
using a public key, you can use that safely.

If you do not know why the host key changed, reinstall the system from
scratch or restore from a "good" backup. If you want to try forensics,
keep the old disk and install on a new one.

To me, If ou are teaching a linux class (assumed since you are self proclaiming 
to be a doctor) the I question why you, as a teacher, are not capable of 
knowing this or how to troubleshoot.

If on the otherhand you are just teaching something on a linux box, then 
perhaps calling the IT team at the school should be in order.

Again, just asking what seems to be the obvious first.

WICD

[James Allsopp]

HI,
I'm running wicd on debian stable and unfortunately wicd can't maintain 
the connection. Absolutely nothing about the rest of the wireless 
network has changed. It keeps oscillating through

putting interface up
obtaining IP addresss
Done connecting
not connected.

When you can get a ping going, gaps of four to six packets fail for ever 
one that gets through.


As part of writing this, I thought about taking out the other network 
cable (currently attached to a raspberry PI, I'm trying to bridge to) 
and that solved the problem, However, how to I make wicd keep the 
wireless connection up with the other cable inserted, would giving it a 
static IP help?		


Any ideas how I can get this wicd bridge to work?
Thanks
James

There is 800 GB free disk space (un-partitioned) between sda1&   sda2
Whole /dev/sda2 is dedicated to a LUKS partition which holds a LVM.
I have tried with gparted to increase /dev/sda2 but there is no support to 
increase luks.
How can I increase sda2, so that I can later execute cryptsetup resize ?

Thanks



Hi, I resized LUKS containers on several occasions, without lvm on top
but it shouldn't be much more difficult.
I usually operate from a live-cd, any will do as long as there is
cryptsetup/lvm/whatever-filesystem-you-use support, or that you can
install it.
Close LUKS container if open (unmount partition, close lvm first if
needed), fire up fdisk to destroy the partition that support the LUKS
container, and recreate it with the desired size. fdisk commands are "d"
(destroy),


But it also destroy the data in LVM, no ?



It doesn't.

When you are done with fdisk, start your luks container as usual:

cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda2 $dev_name

(anything starting with "$" needs to be replace by the correct device name)

cryptsetup resize $dev_name

Resize VG:

pvresize /dev/mapper/$vg_name

Resize LV:

lvresize -L +800GB /dev/$vg_name/$lv_name

(If size isn't correct the command output will give you the max extents 
available, use that number with "-l" option)


Start LV:

vgchange -ay

Check filesystem, resize it, check again:

e2fsck -fp /dev/$vg_name/$lv_name

resize2fs /dev/$vg_name/$lv_name

e2fsck -fp /dev/$vg_name/$lv_name


Mount filesystem and verify that data are still there. Just tested live 
during my tea-break to make sure lvm wasn't screwing things.


The only difference with my system is that free space comes before the 
LUKS container in your case, I never had this scenario (free space 
always after LUKS).

As has been suggested, if you are not the system administrator of the
system, contact whoever is (it seems to that you are not).

It's usually that just that particular IP address for that machine on
the LAN has been used with a different key before but it could be
something malicious. Best to get hold of your admin ASAP.

I'd like to apologise for the abuse you have suffered at the hands of
certain members of this list. Uncalled for, rude & unhelpful.

Ubuntu is a very similar distro to Debian & you may find it worth your
while to unsubscribe here & subscribe to Ubuntu's list. They are much
more friendly, courteous & helpful.

Is my processor 32-bit or 64-bit?

[Stephen Powell]

Several years ago a friend, who owns his own business, gave me one of his
old servers because he knows that computers are my hobby.  It's been
sitting around my basement since then, but it has finally worked its way
to the top of my "to do" list.  I just fired it up for the first time
yesterday.  Basically, I am trying to determine if this is a 64-bit-
capable machine or not, and I can't tell.  Here's what the BIOS setup
program reports for the CPU:

Boot Strap Processor
Installed Speed: 2.40 GHz
Socket Name: BSP
Manufacturer:GenuineIntel
Version: Intel(R) Xeon(TM)
CPUID:   0F27
L2 Cache:512 KB

I consulted Wikipedia's web page on Intel Processors
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_microprocessors),
but was unable to find a processor in the list which met
all the criteria (Xeon in the name, speed, and L2 cache).

The machine has a Phoenix BIOS, version 1.28, dated 05/22/2003.
That may help narrow things down.  (For example, it is unlikely
that a processor introduced in 2008 would be given a BIOS dated
in 2003.)  Any ideas?  Oh, one other thing.  Hyper-Threading was
enabled in the BIOS, suggesting that, as viewed by an operating
system, the machine has at least two CPUs.  But that may not be
100% reliable.  The machine has 1 GB of RAM installed.  (Two
512M SIMMs and 2 empty SIMM slots.)

I don't have Linux installed yet.  (I'm trying to determine if
I want to install the i386 or amd64 port.)

Windows Server 2003 is installed, but I don't know a valid
userid/password combination to log in.  All I can access right
now is the BIOS setup program.

Find out if long-mode is supported by you CPU, for example.
$ grep -o lm /proc/cpuinfo

Well I can tell you that with <4 GB of RAM you should probably just
stick to 32 bit regardless. Although, you could also just try to
install the 64 bit version and see if it works.

The odds are that it's a 32-bit box.

I never tried to figure out that in BOIS, I think a Linux livecd or
liveusb may help.

I suggest you get a grml96 image.  The smallest is 300MB and supports booting 
in both 32- and 64-bit modes, selected at boot (or grml-small for only one of 
32 or 64 is 150MB).  Try the 64-bit mode.  And having a grml CD or USB stick 
around is helpful in lots of situations like this.
