Re: sticky bit q-mail and DHCP

 1. I am using my home computer that uses a DHCP. In /etc/rc.conf 
 my hostname is automatically entered. I realize this is the name of 
 my computer given to me from my ISP. I purchased my domain 
 kooper.ca. Should I change the hostname in /etc/rc.conf to 
 hostname=dell.kooper.ca.  If not, what would the origional host 
 name be used for? I'm sure I should change it. 

The short answer is it doesn't matter.
Hostname and DNS name are quite different.  While you can
make them the same, they really don't have to be.
When people lookup dell.kooper.ca, only the DNS
is used.  The hostname is irrelevant.


 2. chmod +t /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d
 What does it mean by sticky bit + t

man chmod

Need help with DNS

2002-07-23 Thread sagacious








Hi. I changed
my network setup a while ago. I had to put everything behind a firewall router
due to a denial of service attack.. So now, I am
specifying a static ip in my rc.conf, but its a local one, 192.168.1.20, I port
forwarded all the services to that ip. The problem
is, you can all go to my site, http://www.unixhideout.com,
but if I click that url, my
router pass box pops up I had to temporarily change ALL the links in my
site, for example img src=http://www.unixhideout.com/img/blah.gif
to img src=/img/blah.gif.. and I access the box using http://192.168.1.20 I dont want to have
to do this, and a lot of things do not work for me and its my site!! Well, I posted
this a while ago, and a lot of people said if I ran my own DNS for my domain, I
could stop this from happening.. Well I took the time
to learn DNS a bit, and im running it now, and I was
wondering exactly what I need to do.. In my unixhideout.com.hosts I specified this..

Should I upgrade it?

You can during installation say that you want to use the FreeBSD
bootmanager. If you reset the computer you will be given the choice
on what to boot.

Re: Making MACs and Windows talk

2002-07-23 Thread Mark Weisman

User,
   There are many different application that can be used to do this, 
however the first question I would have would be what are you wanting 
to do? Although this may sound a little redundant at this point, the 
reason I ask is that if you're talking about networking Mac's to a 
WindowsNT/2K Server, then you're done. By using Mac file sharing on the 
server, mission accomplished.
   Now if you're talking about having the Mac act like a PC, maybe run 
Windows as an OS, I recommend Connectix Virtual PC, which allows you to 
install all of the Windows OS, Linux, to name a few on the Mac running 
in a Virtual Machine. Natively, the newer Mac all speak TCP/IP, so 
networking is already there. File Sharing may be a little trickier if 
you're using a Peer-to-Peer style of network, however, it can be done.

Let me know,
His Humble Servant,
Mark

Re: sticky bit q-mail and DHCP

2002-07-23 Thread Grant Cooper

Ok, I guess my question is, DHCP automatically fills in the host part for
me. But since I host my own domain, should I overload the tellus.ab.ca and
change it to kooper.ca. I was thinking other packages such as sendmail or
qmail would use this thinking my domain is tellus.ab.ca. I couldn't find any
info on that.

Thanks for the 1000 I was reading up and down that man list.

It goes something like this:

$ su

# make all install clean

/usr/ports and each subdirectory immediately under it has its own Makefile,
enabling you to simply install whole chunks of the ports collection with
one command.  You could equally, for example, cd /usr/ports; make all 
install clean and build the whole shebang.

ELF Interpreter /compat/svr4/lib/ld-linux.so.2 not found

2002-07-23 Thread lane holcombe

I had a catastrophic hardware failure this weekend so I had to reinstall 
FreeBSD from scratch.

Everything seems to have installed correctly but I cannot get 
/usr/ports/www/linux-netscape47-navigator to install.  make all works 
without complaint, but make install complains thusly:

===  Installing for linux-netscape-navigator-4.79
===   linux-netscape-navigator-4.79 depends on executable: netscape - found
===   linux-netscape-navigator-4.79 depends on file: 
/compat/linux/etc/redhat-release - found
===   linux-netscape-navigator-4.79 depends on shared library: X11.6 - found
ELF interpreter /compat/svr4/lib/ld-linux.so.2 not found
*** Signal 6

Stop in /usr/ports/www/linux-netscape47-navigator.

I can locate ld-linux.so.2 in /usr/compat/linux/lib/ , but I can't figure out 
how to coerce make to find it there.

And I can't figure out how to remake ld-linux.so.2 

If I create the path mentioned (/compat/svr4/lib/) and put ld-linux.so.2  
there then the install fails like this:

===  Installing for linux-netscape-navigator-4.79
===   linux-netscape-navigator-4.79 depends on executable: netscape - found

Stop in /usr/ports/www/linux-netscape47-navigator.

How do I make this ELF look where I'm telling him?

(Retry) Bridging a wi-device with a LAN-adapter

2002-07-23 Thread Erik Paulsen Skålerud

Hello. I'm a little confused here.
I want to bridge my wireless card (Orinoco/Lucent Silver 11mbit) with my
LAN-adapter (fxp0).

When I read the wi(4), allmost at the end of the configuration examples it
says:

 Create a host-based wireless bridge to fxp0 (Prism only):
   Add BRIDGE to the kernel config.
   # ifconfig wi0 inet up ssid my_ap mediaopt hostap
   # sysctl net.link.ether.bridge=1
   # sysctl net.link.ether.bridge_cfg=wi0 fxp0
   # sysctl net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
 This will give you approximately the same functionality as an access
 point.

And, when I read the bridge(4) manual page, it says:

 Bridging requires interfaces to be put in promiscuous mode, and
transmit
 packets with Ethernet source addresses.  Some interfaces (e.g.  wi(4))
do
 not support this functionality.  Also, bridging is not compatible with
 interfaces which use hardware loopback, because there is no way to tell
 locally generated packets from externally generated ones.

So. Where do I stand? Can it do bridging in FreeBSD or not? I tried to make
it work, both in FreeBSD and Windows XP (yes, I know.) without any results.

While searching on mailinglists, I see several people saying that you need a
binary firmware wich costs money so that the cards can work with bridging..
the reason would be that the manufactors of these chipsets wants to make
money on selling licenses to companies who want an AP.

I've also heard a rumour that ng_bridge(4)/netgraph can do bridging with
wi(4)-devices. Is this true?

Thanks for all help, Erik.

RE: Need help with DNS

2002-07-23 Thread Joe Fhe Barbish








Restating your problem. Every thing works as expected
for requests originating from the public internet, But any requests origination
from the LAN behind your firewall gets denied. This could very well be a IPFW firewall rules problem. You
have to have a IPFW rule to allow all originating LAN traffic to pass through
the firewall. For each LAN Nic card you have on your GATEWAY/IPFW FBSD box, you
must have an corresponding rule in the IPFW rules file like this. 

allow all from any to any via
xl0 Where xl0 is the
FBSD NIC card device name of your Lan Nic card. This rule normally is located in the beginning of the IPFW
rules file. If you still need help post your IPFW rules file for review.

There are dozens of such applications.  The easiest way to install them would
be using the ports: /usr/ports/news.

My personal favourite is Tin http://www.tin.org/, which is console-based.
Other popular console-based readers are slrn and Mutt (with a patch).  Pan and
KNode are graphical alternatives.

They're all in the ports.

Trek Thumbdrive support?

Has anyone used a Trek Thumbdrive w/FreeBSD? When I plug it in, it gets 
recognized as da1, but I can't figure out how to mount it. If not, maybe I'll
pursue Trek, and see whats needed to get them utilized.

Kernel hang on SiS 630

2002-07-23 Thread Chris Ward

I'm trying to install FreeBSD 4.6 onto a laptop (i386 on a SiS 630 chipset) 
but after configuring the kernel it hangs on a page fault whilst probing the 
hw (last reported device is the VGA adapter).

I've tried slimming the kernel down without PC card, ethernet and just 1 IDE 
channel without joy - kernel reports a page fault whilst probing, last 
reported device is the VGA adapter.

I've been looking through the hardware compatibility list and FAQs but 
haven't found anything to suggest that SiS chipsets are difficult.

Any tips or ideas greatly appreciated.

TIA

Re: adaptec 2100S raidutil software -- how to startup or use?

 The archives don't talk much about the adaptec raidutil.  I have done

 In addition, they said a bunch of dpt* processes should be running. 
 I don't know how to start up those processes, and there is no startup

 raidutil says it cannot open the engine.  I have tried to start the

Try ktrace'ing or trussing the executable.  I don't remember doing
anything special on my systems to get it to work, but that was 2 years

To the attention of European organisations and

  · 
  Reform 
  of CAP, Common Agricultural Policy, NOW!
  · 
  Banners, 
  flags, fireworks and igloo on the Mont-Blanc at 4.800 
  m
  

Ladies and Gentlemen,

  


A
group of European climbers will build an igloo and unfold 
a banner begin august 2002 on the top of the Mont-Blanc at 4.800 m. 
height: “STOP FINANCE NATURE DESTRUCTION! CAP REFORM IS TOP!” This
message 
will be carried by all European organisations and citizens having expressed 
their moral support to the event. To do so, just send us back your
identity and 
encouragements, by fax or (e)mail to the address here under. Thank you very 
much!The
list of organisations and citizens implied will be 
given to the Press.
  
  


The 
climbers will spend a night or more in what should be the highest igloo of
the 
world.

Why 
Mont-Blanc? Because the Mont-Blanc is probably the only place in 
Europe
that is 
not polluted by intensive agriculture as it is organised through CAP. The 
Mont-Blanc is the summit of Europe but
also 
top of France
where largely EC-financed big farmers react against any 
reform considering smaller farmers and the environment.

  
  
   

The
Press 
will be widely informed in advance of the action. Facts will be re-stated, 
namely:


  the list of the numerous and dramatic environmental 
  damages of the CAP.Wide
range destruction of hedges, wetlands, biodiversity, 
  pollution and erosion of soils, pollution of waters, air, etc.
  the huge costs of the CAP for the citizen, as tax payer 
  and consumer 40%
of EC budget, consumer prices 44% higher than 
  normal.   
  
  the 
  distortion and unfairness of CAP due to the fact it finances according to 
  production level. Big farmers get bigger, pollution 
  too!

The
event 
will stress the extreme interest and urgency of a CAP Reform, not only
stopping 
the large scale destruction of the European environment and the expensive
over 
production but also setting up a new agriculture, fair to smaller farmers
and 
restoring nature.

The
great 
majority of European people don’t want to waste their money anymore, and
even 
less for nature devastation! EC people wants deep-going CAP Reform! Go on, 
Member of Commission Fischler!

willing to support the event financially can do so via Bank account:

named issues... any ideas what this error intails?

2002-07-23 Thread Nathan Vidican

Just recently switched from a dedicated ISDN connection to a faster DSL 
pipe. During the switch we moved a few thigns around, (namely that the 
old firewall/natd box became the static router too - cisco router for 
isdn went out the window). No major changes software wise, short of the 
actual IP addresses which the system runs from, (went to a completely 
different carrier). All of the sudden, bind just will not run. Our 
email services are down, squid is slow as mud, and things just 
generally suck!
   Here's what I get logged to /var/log/messages:

I have no idea what this means, nor how to fix it. Never did so until 
now, and I can't see th reason why? Any ideas, comments, suggestions, 
or even lectures would be greatly appreciated.

Mouse help please

2002-07-23 Thread Thomas Connolly

All,
I am having troubles getting my mouse to work correctly in Xfree86 4.2.0.  I
have a generic ps/2, 3-button wheel mouse that works fine in the console but
when I startx, once I move the mouse it jets over to the right side of the
screen and stays there.  In my XF86Config I have:

Section InputDevice 
Identifier Mouse0 
Driver mouse 
Option Protocol auto
Option Device /dev/sysmouse 
EndSection

I have the mouse daemon running.  I have tried stopping the moused and have
tried the following configurations in XF86Config:
Option Device /dev/psm0
Option Device /dev/mouse
Option Protocol PS/2

I have been through the FreeBSD Handbook and the Xfree86 documentation but I
have found nothing.  Has anyone had a similar problem who can offer some
advice?

I think the MP3 format doesn't allow bit rate peeling, i.e. you
can't do this any other way than by decoding the MP3 and re-encoding
the output at the desired bit rate.

reinstalling libtool

2002-07-23 Thread default

Hello,

I need to reinstall libtool (i am pretty sure this is the problem, the port
has been updated...) in order to install the latest version of wget.

in order to install the latest wget, you must have bison installed, which
must have libiconv installed, which must have libtool installed. when
configuring libiconv (this is on a freebsd 4.1 machine) i recieve a libtool
error, which I believe may be able to be fixed by upgrading...

So my question is, what problems may be caused by re-installing libtool by
using make deinstall, and make install on the new one? If any problems (i do
have other ports that use libtool of course)

Thanks,
Jordan

If you just want to have a backup kept on disk, use dump(8) 
(and restore(8) if needed).  
Just dump to a file on to the other disk using dump with the -f flag.
Such as dump 0af /bakdisk/dump_of_root /
and dump 0af /bakdisk/dump_of_home /home
or whatever file systems you have and want to back up.

The dump and restore utillities know how to keep file info like owners
and links, etc properly and are easy to use and reliable.

If what you are asking about is keeping an ongoing mirror of the disk
then you need to check out either hardware or software raid support.

Re: Installing on a logical DOS partition

2002-07-23 Thread Siegbert Baude

Hi Piyusch,

Piyush wrote:
 The program shows the primary dos partition and extended dos partition
but
 not any logical partitions under the extended partition..the
logical
 partition on which I wish to install Fbsd is the last one...if I
delete
 a 'slice' of a particular size will fbsd delete any other partitions?

Jud wrote:
 The second alternative might work if you have Linux
 handy and it groks Windows logical and extended
 partitions (I don't know anything about Linux).  Try
 deleting the DOS partition, changing it to a
 Linux partition, and see if FreeBSD understands it.
 If it does, install there.

This way will work, but be very careful, you are operating on the heart
of your hard disk management.
So if you have any precious data on this disk: Backup first, make sure
you can retrieve your data from these backups!

So then in Linux call your fdisk like:

fdisk /dev/hda

change the display of the units with the u command as it is easier to
handle LBA block numbers than CHS numbers. Type p and write down all
the numbers. This will enable you to restore the state of your hard
disk, if anything goes wrong. Changing the MBR doesn`t actually destroy
your data, but can make it impossilbe to access it anymore. If you
exactly restore the information you just wrote down, it is possible to
regain access.

You were lucky so far, as the partition you want to use is the last in
your extended partition. This makes it easy to reduce the size of the
extended partition and reuse the gained space for a primary partition.

So if your layout is for example like:

primary partition 1: LBA 1 - LBA 1
extended partition: LBA 1 - LBA 4
logical partition 1: LBA 1- LBA 2
logical partition 2: LBA 2- LBA 3
logical partition 3: LBA 3- LBA 4

Maybe the beginning of logical partition 1 is actually on 10001 (one
block needed to write the EMBR), but this is not important. Just use the
numbers as you have them now.


Now you want to use logical partition 2 then you have to get to the
following layout:

primary partition 1: LBA 1 - LBA 1
extended partition: LBA 1 - LBA 3
logical partition 1: LBA 1- LBA 2
logical partition 2: LBA 2- LBA 3
primary partition 2: LBA 3- LBA 4

You get the idea?

So the first thing is to delete logical partition 3 (Linux fdisk would
probably show this as partition 7). Then you have to resize the extended
partition, i.e. adjusting the end block from 4 to 3. I don't
know, if Linux fdisk will allow this directly or if you have to delete
all the logical and extended partitions first and then recreate them
with the correct numbers. Just try, there will be no harm, if you just
quit the fdisk with q. Only if you hit w the changes are actually
written to disk!
If you have the correct values for the extended partition and logical
partition 1 and 2 create a new primary partition 2 with n and give it
all the available space you just freed by deleting logical partition 3.
To be sure you can change the type to FreeBSD, but I believe FreeBSD
sysinstall will recognize the primary partition independent of its type.
So it should be possible to install FreeBSD there now.

If what I wrote is not clear to you, ask first before dong dumb things.
Maybe this is a good time to pay your local guru a beer to accompany
your steps. :-)

BTW, it is possible to use logical partitions  as FreeBSD mount devices,
but you have to do all the magic by hand, as the tools don`t support
this.

And final note: In FreeBSD DOS/Linux partitions are called slices. Such
a slice is then separated into FreeBSD partitions (no DOS/Linux
equivalent exists) with sysinstall. FreeBSD partition c is the complete
disk, a ist the partition which contains the / mount point, b is swap

 Subject: linux compatability broken?
 
 I recently made a few kernel changes so I remade world.
 
 It would seem that linux compatability is now broken.  At first things
 were complaining about the fact that ld-linux.so.2 got moved.  After I
 made symbolic links things failed with a bad system call signal 12.
 
 Weren't all of my modules, including the compatibility ones, updated with
 make world?

barring a knob in (IIRC) /etc/make.conf, kernel modules are built
and installed during make buildkernel and make installkernel,
respectively

Correct.  You'd need to go back to source media (CD?) and re-encode @ 128k
to achieve this.

I prefer 192k, personally.  Disk is inexpensive. ;-)  I had fun this past

VBR anyone ?

When i encode mp3's i generaly use VBR, it keeps the file size down but gets
good qualty, and mpg123 can handle playing VBR's with a 320-32 kbps range on
a p133 so im good :D

disklabel was clobbered

2002-07-23 Thread Erich M. Jenkins

I have recently had a problem with the disklabel on a drive in one of my 
servers. I had just installed an additional hard drive and was running a 
backup when the system halted due to a kernel fault (caused by dead RAM, 
as I later found out) and fsck managed to clobber my disklabel. The 
drive had about 40 gigs of data on it that would be nice to have back.

I've tried gpart and numerous other open source and commercial packages, 
though none are able to read the partition or disklabel information. 
After running a hex dump on the drive, I was  pleased to find the data 
still intact, even though the drive is a bit confused.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

PHP Installation Issues

2002-07-23 Thread MET
Title: Message



I'm 
trying to install the PHP 4.2.2. My ./configure command looks like 
this:

 ./configure --with-mysql --with-xml 
--with-apache=../httpd-2.0.39 --enable-ftp --enable-short-tags 
--enable-track-vars

Up 
one level is the httpd-2.0.39 dir which is Apache2. On it I've only run: 
./configure 
--prefix=/usr/local/apache as to set its 
directory. I have not run "make" or "make install" on apache as a tutorial i've read says to do 
it later. So anyways. when I run the ./configure command for PHP I get this 
error:

 
Configuring SAPI moduleschecking for AOLserver support... 
nochecking for Apache 1.x module support via DSO through APXS... 
nochecking for Apache 1.x module support... configure: error: --with-apache 
does not work with Apache 2.x!

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong and 
how to fix it?

 Use Samba, but that's overkill for this.
 
 Put the printer on a JetDirect and let everyone print to it over the

Vulnerability in PHP Clarification?

Can anyone clarify this a bit? I see that they state that 4.2.0 and 4.2.1
are vulnerable.
If you goto the link provided

It states that the older versions are vulnerable and that the 4.2 tree is
not affected.
Not to mention that link is dated 5months old!

 CERT Advisory CA-2002-21 Vulnerability in PHP

Original release date: July 22, 2002
Last revised: --
Source: CERT/CC

A complete revision history can be found at the end of this file.

 Systems Affected

  * Systems running PHP versions 4.2.0 or 4.2.1

 Overview

A  vulnerability  has been discovered in PHP. This vulnerability could
be  used  by  a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or crash PHP
and/or the web server.

 I. Description

PHP  is  a  popular  scripting  language  in  widespread use. For more
information about PHP, see

   http://www.php.net/manual/en/faq.general.php

The  vulnerability  occurs  in the portion of PHP code responsible for
handling  file uploads, specifically multipart/form-data. By sending a
specially  crafted  POST  request  to  the web server, an attacker can
corrupt  the  internal  data  structures used by PHP. Specifically, an
intruder  can  cause  an improperly initialized memory structure to be
freed.  In  most  cases, an intruder can use this flaw to crash PHP or
the  web  server. Under some circumstances, an intruder may be able to
take  advantage  of  this  flaw  to  execute  arbitrary  code with the
privileges of the web server.

You  may  be  aware that freeing memory at inappropriate times in some
implementations  of  malloc  and  free  does not usually result in the
execution  of  arbitrary  code.  However, because PHP utilizes its own
memory  management  system,  the  implementation of malloc and free is
irrelevant to this problem.

Stefan  Esser  of  e-matters  GmbH has indicated that intruders cannot
execute   code   on   x86   systems.   However,  we  encourage  system
administrators  to  apply  patches  on  x86  systems  as well to guard
against denial-of-service attacks and as-yet-unknown attack techniques
that may permit the execution of code on x86 architectures.

This  vulnerability  was discovered by e-matters GmbH and is described
in  detail  in  their  advisory.  The  PHP  Group  has  also issued an
advisory.  A list of vendors contacted by the CERT/CC and their status
regarding this vulnerability is available in VU#929115.

Although   this  vulnerability  only  affects  PHP  4.2.0  and  4.2.1,
e-matters  GmbH  has  previously  identified  vulnerabilities in older
versions  of  PHP.  If  you  are  running  older  versions  of PHP, we
encourage you to review
http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/012002.html

 II. Impact

A  remote  attacker can execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable system.
An  attacker  may not be able to execute code on x86 architectures due
to  the way the stack is structured. However, an attacker can leverage
this  vulnerability  to  crash PHP and/or the web server running on an
x86 architecture.

 III. Solution

 Apply a patch from your vendor

Appendix A contains information provided by vendors for this advisory.
As  vendors report new information to the CERT/CC, we will update this
section  and note the changes in our revision history. If a particular
vendor  is  not  listed  below,  we  have not received their comments.
Please contact your vendor directly.

 Upgrade to the latest version of PHP

If  a  patch  is  not  available  from your vendor, upgrade to version
4.2.2.

 Deny POST requests

Until  patches  or an update can be applied, you may wish to deny POST
requests.  The  following  workaround  is  taken from the PHP Security
Advisory:

  If  the  PHP  applications on an affected web server do not rely on
  HTTP POST input from user agents, it is often possible to deny POST
  requests on the web server.

  In  the  Apache  web server, for example, this is possible with the
  following  code  included  in  the  main  configuration  file  or a
  top-level .htaccess file:

  Limit POST
 Order deny,allow
 Deny from all
  /Limit

  Note  that an existing configuration and/or .htaccess file may have
  parameters contradicting the example given above.

 Disable vulnerable service

Until  you  can upgrade or apply patches, you may wish to disable PHP.
As a best practice, the CERT/CC recommends disabling all services that
are not explicitly required. Before deciding to disable PHP, carefully
   

RE: question about downloading iso images

2002-07-23 Thread Jesse Gross

The 4.6.1-RC2.iso is equivilent to the first CD from the full set. The
RC stands for release candidate, so it has not been as fully tested as
4.6. It is similar to 4.6, but includes mostly security fixes that have
been discovered since 4.6 was released. When 4.6.1 is released, which
should be RSN, it will have a directory similar to the 4.6 directory
including three other ISOs.

What you should download depends on exactly what you want to do. The
best solution would be to wait for 4.6.1 to be released. If you can't
wait then I would download the ISOs in the 4.6 directory. If you are
planning on building the packages yourself then all you really need is
the first ISO in the 4.6 directory.

Hope this helps,

Jesse Gross

I could be mistaken about this but I believe that the *RC2 is the
mini-install version.  I'm not sure about the differences but I would
go
with the full set.  If you don't need all the port binaries and
extras, CD
#1 from the 4 CD set should be sufficient.

Subject:   question about downloading iso images

I'm interested in downloading iso images for FreeBSD 4.6 from 
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-i386/ and then having
them 
burned to CD's so I can install FreeBSD. I currently boot win 98 and
I'm 
interested in creating a dual-boot configuration.

I see that there is an iso image for  4.6.1-RC2.iso  and also a folder

marked 4.6 where I can get the 4 CD complete set. I think
4.6.1-RC2.iso 
is some update or something. If I want 4.6 complete, do I download the
4 
iso's from the 4.6 folder, then download 4.6.1-RC2.iso so that I would

have a 5cd set that can be used to install FreeBSD on my system?? Or, 

how different is 4.6.1-RC2.iso from the 4 cd set and why is it there??

Thanks.

CROSSPOST: [PHP] PHP Security Advisory: Vulnerability in PHP versions4.2.0 and 4.2.1 (fwd)

2002-07-23 Thread Rodolfo Gonzalez

Ok, some asked for clarification on the security issue with PHP, so I'm 
doing this cross post from a PHP list with the official announcement. My 
apologies for the cross post.

-- Forwarded message --
Date: Mon, 22 Jul 2002 16:49:01 +0300
From: Marko Karppinen [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], PHP-DEV [EMAIL PROTECTED],

Subject: [PHP] PHP Security Advisory: Vulnerability in PHP versions 4.2.0
and 4.2.1


   PHP Security Advisory: Vulnerability in PHP versions 4.2.0 and 4.2.1


Issued on: July 22, 2002
Software:  PHP versions 4.2.0 and 4.2.1
Platforms: All


   The PHP Group has learned of a serious security vulnerability in PHP
   versions 4.2.0 and 4.2.1. An intruder may be able to execute arbitrary
   code with the privileges of the web server. This vulnerability may be
   exploited to compromise the web server and, under certain conditions,
   to gain privileged access.


Description

   PHP contains code for intelligently parsing the headers of HTTP POST
   requests. The code is used to differentiate between variables and files
   sent by the user agent in a multipart/form-data request. This parser
   has insufficient input checking, leading to the vulnerability.

   The vulnerability is exploitable by anyone who can send HTTP POST
   requests to an affected web server. Both local and remote users, even
   from behind firewalls, may be able to gain privileged access.


Impact

   Both local and remote users may exploit this vulnerability to compromise
   the web server and, under certain conditions, to gain privileged access.
   So far only the IA32 platform has been verified to be safe from the
   execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerability can still be used on IA32
   to crash PHP and, in most cases, the web server.


Solution

   The PHP Group has released a new PHP version, 4.2.2, which incorporates
   a fix for the vulnerability. All users of affected PHP versions are
   encouraged to upgrade to this latest version. The downloads web site at

  http://www.php.net/downloads.php
   
   has the new 4.2.2 source tarballs, Windows binaries and source patches
   from 4.2.0 and 4.2.1 available for download.
 
 
Workaround

   If the PHP applications on an affected web server do not rely on HTTP
   POST input from user agents, it is often possible to deny POST requests
   on the web server.

   In the Apache web server, for example, this is possible with the
   following code included in the main configuration file or a top-level
   .htaccess file:

  Limit POST
  Order deny,allow
  Deny from all
  /Limit

   Note that an existing configuration and/or .htaccess file may have
   parameters contradicting the example given above.

 
Credits

   The PHP Group would like to thank Stefan Esser of e-matters GmbH for
   discovering this vulnerability.

The biggest thing with Limewire is it requires the latest and greatest
java runtime libraries, which usually run under linux compat. mode.

Some other gnutella clients I've tried and liked are lopster, gnapster,
knapster (I think...), and gnut and teknap for cli environment.  I think
I've also tried gnutella and gnubile but don't remember much about them.

Give lopster and gnapster a try for opennap servers; that will probably
work out best.

yet another sendmail permission problem

2002-07-23 Thread David S. Jackson

Well, I had been getting this error:

Jul 23 14:02:18 juno sendmail[2386]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(dsj): can not write
to queue directory /var/spool/clientmqueue/ (RunAsGid=0, required=25):

until I recently copied the submit.mc file from
/usr/src/contrib/yadayada to /etc/mail.  Did a make submit.cf and
restarted the sendmail daemon using make stop and make start
I also double checked the permissions on various files and directories
according to what I found in UPDATING and /etc/mail/README as well as in
the archives.

Now I've got an error I haven't seen before:

I've done a locate sm-mta but can't find it (using several regex's).
Also, $ for i in `locate collect|grep bin`; do

None of these appears to have gid=25 or be in smmsp.  Apr 27 was the

Take a look at /var/spool/clientmqueue - the permissions should be 775, and
the ownership should be root:smmsp.  The sendmail binary is setgid, and
the error you are seeing is because group smmsp does not have write access
to that directory.

# chown :smmsp /var/spool/clientmqueue
# chmod g+w !$

and you should be set...  You may need to do the same for /var/spool/mqueue.

RE: Need help with DNS

Yay. I just
configured my other freebsd box as a second dns server, and I told all my lan
boxes to use that instead of labs, so I now have two dns servers. It was easy, I
just copied the namedb configs from labs to lab2 and edited the ips. Works like

Restating your problem. Every thing works as
expected for requests originating from the public internet, But any requests origination
from the LAN behind your firewall gets denied. This could very well be a IPFW firewall
rules problem. You have to have a IPFW rule to allow all originating LAN
traffic to pass through the firewall. For each LAN Nic card you have on your
GATEWAY/IPFW FBSD box, you must have an corresponding rule in the IPFW rules
file like this. 

allow
all from any to any via xl0
Where xl0 is the FBSD NIC card device name of your Lan Nic card. This rule normally is located in the
beginning of the IPFW rules file. If you still need help post your IPFW rules
file for review.

Hi. I changed my network setup a while ago. I had to put
everything behind a firewall router due to a denial of service attack.. So now,
I am specifying a static ip in my rc.conf, but its a local
one, 192.168.1.20, I port forwarded all the services to that ip. The problem
is, you can all go to my site, http://www.unixhideout.com,
but if I click that url, my router pass box pops up I had to temporarily
change ALL the links in my site, for example img src="http://www.unixhideout.com/img/blah.gif
to img src="/img/blah.gif.. and I access the box using http://192.168.1.20 I dont want to have
to do this, and a lot of things do not work for me and its my site!! Well, I
posted this a while ago, and a lot of people said if I ran my own DNS for my
domain, I could stop this from happening.. Well I took the time to learn DNS a
bit, and im running it now, and I was wondering exactly what I need to do.. In
my unixhideout.com.hosts I specified this..

Help: Don't get the modem and souncard to work

2002-07-23 Thread Edwin Renders

Hi,

Some weeks ago i installed FreeBSD-4.6 STABLE and KDE3. I'm a newbie to
Linux, but more experienced
with Windows. I first collected all data from windows for my PnP devices,
such as: IRQ, I/O, memory because i thought it must be added somehow to the
Kernel.

I have the following devices that won't work:
An internal Lucent Winmodem (PCI) and a Soundblaster Live 5.1.

Soundblaster Live 5.1
I added the device pcm statement in the Kernel and made my custom Kernel.
KDE3 is still complaining that the sound-device is not working.

dmesg |grep 'pcm' results in:

pcm0: Creative EMU10K1 at device 7.0 on pci 0
pcm0: unable to map register space
device_probe_and_attach:pcm0 returned 6
pcm1: Creative EMU10K1 at device 7.0 on pci 0
pcm1: unable to map register space
device_probe_and_attach:pcm1 returned 6

How does the Kernel know what IRQ,I/O,memory this device needs ? What is
wrong ?

Lucent Winmodem
I've installed the LTMDM software from the ports collection, but i didn't
make a custom Kernel again, because i don't know what to add. Logically, i
think, the Kernel must know something about the modem.
I cannot find any details on how to do it exactly. Is there some example
Kernel for the Lucent
winmodem ? How does the Kernel know what IRQ,I/O,memory this device needs ?

dmesg | grep 'ltmdm' results in:
ltmdm0: lucent Winmodem at device 8.0 on pci0
ltmdm0: could not map ioport

Please help,

Kind Regards

Edwin Renders

 You just need to recompile your kernel. Add the following line to your
 kernel config file:
 device  pcm
 
 recompile, install the new kernel and reboot.

No need to rebuild the kernel: just run

kldload snd

For permanent use add 

snd_load=YES

in /boot/loader.conf

I generally don't use VBR, to keep compatibility with the consumer devices

stay on the safe side.

True, but since my Archos Jukebox Recorder 20 supports VBR flawlessly it's
not realy an issue for me, i suppose when it comes to mp3's it's a matter of

Serving via a non-ppp network connection.

2002-07-23 Thread David Banning

I have just changed the configuration of my connection to my ISP.

Now my -modem- has my password and login info and does the pppoe
login into the ISP. I guess you could say the modem is doing the gateway
function.

But now I am lost as to how to connect my unix box and host my web sites.
I have only ever connected to the internet through ppp. What I want to do
is connect via a normal network connection, like any other box I have
on my network. The modem/gateway runs nat, which I can disable becuase
I would like unix to handle nat.

Forgive my terminology here. I sure there is a easier way to say this. 

Any one know how I go about connecting via a non-ppp way? I want to connect,
I guess, just like any dumb windows box would on the network, by plugging into
the hub.

  I recently made a few kernel changes so I remade world.
 
  It would seem that linux compatability is now broken.  At first things

  made symbolic links things failed with a bad system call signal 12.
 
  Weren't all of my modules, including the compatibility ones, updated with

 barring a knob in (IIRC) /etc/make.conf, kernel modules are built
 and installed during make buildkernel and make installkernel,
 respectively

Okay, so any guesses why my linux compatiability would break?

2002-07-23 Thread burningclown


All -

I'd like to thank Joe Marcus Clarke for his assistance in getting past the fact 
that a repeated error building gconf-editor was keeping me from getting to 
Gnome2. The culprit was yet another outdated /usr/X11R6/include directory 
(gdk-pixbuf, to be precise).

Thank you Joe. I hope I have learned something in this process.

Regards,

Glenn Becker

 Dear Sir/Ma'am
 
  We have been using FreeBSD for a few years and have been so far very
 satisfied in its performance.  We would like to make a back up of the hard
 drive that has FreeBSD and its configuration.  Is there a disk cloning
 software that would work and be compatable with FreeBSD where we could copy
 from one disk to another disk?  Thank you for your input.

 See DD(1) to copy an exact image to another HD. Be aware that HD #2 (copy
 to) needs to be equal to or larger than HD #1 (copy from).

What device name would I use? Let's say I have two SCSI drives. Would I
use /dev/da0 and /dev/da1, or /dev/da0s1 and /dev/da1s1?

make installworld fails with mergemaster errors - 4.4Rel upgrade to 4.6 Stable

2002-07-23 Thread sroberts


Hello,
  I've just done a fresh install of 4.4Rel, and I'm trying to upgrade to 
the latest stable.

In single user mode [using shutdown now] having dropped from multiuser mode -
All went well until I got to make installworld. I hit the issue mentioned in 
UPDATING 20020404 about the new Sendmail user smmsp. I followed the advice to:
cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/mergemaster; make install clean
mergemaster -p

I used the i option to install each of the temporary files that appeared.

I then ran make installworld, which fails with the following:

=== usr/sbin/mergemaster
install -c -o root -g wheel -m 444 mergemaster8.gz /usr/share/man/man8

install: mergemaster.8.gz : No such file or directory
*** Error Code 71

Stop in /usr/src/usr.sbin/mergemaster.
*** Error Code 1

Stop in /usr/src/usr.sbin.
*** Error Code 1

Can someone help with this please? If its documented in UPDATING, I figure 
there should be a procedure out of this out there.

Stacey

4.6-STABLE CD install problem

2002-07-23 Thread Gregg Rice

I downloaded the 4.6-STABLE install CDs (4) from the main FreeBSD ftp site
for use installing on a Dell Optiplex GX1p. The install from CD #1 goes fine
until the installer beings extracting from bin: it eventually says it can't
read from the CD and offers to retry, which does nothing. FWIW, the FreeBSD
4.4 CDs installed perfectly on the same machine.

No DFP Detected

I have been working on this one all day and can't seem
to come to a resolution.  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.  I am going to attach my log file so you

digital flat panel, but I am not sure where this is
getting set?  I have gone over my XF86Config file

claims such.  The intriguing part about all this is
if I try and run KDE it core dumps and causes the machine
to reboot!  Thanks in advance for any leads on this one.

   I recently made a few kernel changes so I remade world.
  
   It would seem that linux compatability is now broken.  At first things
   were complaining about the fact that ld-linux.so.2 got moved.  After I
   made symbolic links things failed with a bad system call signal 12.
  
   Weren't all of my modules, including the compatibility ones, updated with
   make world?
 
  barring a knob in (IIRC) /etc/make.conf, kernel modules are built
  and installed during make buildkernel and make installkernel,
  respectively
 
 Okay, so any guesses why my linux compatiability would break?

no idea, really. i don't use any linux apps atm.

Yes.  As a matter of fact this is how I run my caching BIND at home.
You want to look up the description of the listen-on option.  An
example of using the option in named.conf could be:

options {
listen-on { 127.0.0.1/32; };
};

I was thinking of portable mp3-players that might only expect to be

I don't know if any exist that can't handle high bitrates, though.

 UPDATING 20020404 about the new Sendmail user smmsp. I followed the advice to:
 cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/mergemaster; make install clean

The clean there is the problem. What UPDATING actually says is:

cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/mergemaster; make all install [clean]

I'll delete that altogether, as it's misleading and potentially dangerous.
