Re: [SLUG] Is someone is snooping my wireless?
I'd just like to add an anecdote on pseudo-random number generation: several years ago, a group of Canadian comp. sci. students were arrested for fraud. A casino made the charges, claiming the students 'hacked' into their computer which dealt the numbers for one of their random-draw games. Naturally, everyone suspected that the boys had done something nefarious, since they were in the black magic arts of computing. The boys came away with several thousand dollars in winnings. When they arrested the college kids, they sheepishly explained how they did it: the computer, which drew the random numbers, used the last few digits of the clock as the pseudo-random number. This is a standard method of picking random numbers, though it's awfully insecure. The computers were started, every day, automatically, at precisely the same moment. Due to the nature of the game, the draws were fixed in time, as well, for example, a draw would occur exactly every 15 minutes. The boys realized that the same numbers appeared at the same time of day, and simply bet on them. I can't seem to find a link to this story, though. Is it bogus?

Re: [SLUG] help with bind
Hi ! I do speak for my ubuntu dns, but i think isssue is closed to etch. i heard that now rndc (remote domain name server control utility) uses 953 as standard port, instead of old 53. so do a " netstat -an | grep -i 53 ", it should print both 53 (bind daemon) and 953 listening. by checking in your error message, reading statement "or the key is invalid", i assume you didn't setup rndc-keys check /etc/bind/named.conf and /etc/bind/rndc.key, they must contain an identical hash. (paths can differ) you can take one hash as good, the first you find, or generate a new one by a simple procedure. i quote :" *rndc-confgen* generates configuration files for *rndc*. It can be used as a convenient alternative to writing the *rndc.conf* file and the corresponding *controls* and *key* statements in *named.conf* by hand. Alternatively, it can be run with the *-a* option to set up a *rndc.key*file and avoid the need for a *rndc.conf* file and a *controls* statement altogether. " first: adjust keys, then issue a : rndc -p 953 -s localhost -k /etc/bind/rndc.key status or rndc -p 953 -s localhost -k /etc/bind/rndc.key stop to check/stop running. if it doesnt solve, try 53 port. (but i think is deprecated) once you set it up the right way, also init.d script should run normally. HTH and hope not to have missconfused.

Re: [SLUG] Is someone is snooping my wireless?
Jonathan Lange wrote: Of course, the more interesting question is WHY!?!?! Apologies, I had thought it was obvious. Keys are often given in a hexadecimal representation. Each 4 bits is a hex digit, written using 0...9A...F. So a d16 will generate a hex digit of randomness. Two d16s will generate two hex digits, which is 2*4=8 bits, which is commonly called a "byte". With a pair of d16s a 63-byte key can be generated in 63 throws, five minutes or so. The other side of this is (1) it's very hard for computers to generate random numbers, and using a computer to generate a "random" key you then use on the same computer is full of security issues. (2) it's very hard for humans to generate strings of random numbers. They avoid number at the extremes and avoid repeated digits (a 60 byte string would have a run of 6 repeated digits about one time in five). The result is very non-random. So you can see the attraction of a d16 dice. Secret shared keys are very common in computing (not just WPA-PSK, but RADIUS and BGP). Having difficult-to-guess (ie, random) keys is very important and a vital assumption in their security. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html

[SLUG] Conflict between deb's & cvs
Hi, I had a conflict between current debs and their deprecated cvs versions. Advice from various sources was to delete the cvs versions so I deleted libavcodeccvs51 libavutilcvs49 libpostproccvs51 libswscalecvs0 After a bit of a search I located the latest non-cvs versions in the debian depository and installed them manually. I found the latest cvs versions at http://debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/f/ffmpegcvs/ffmpegcvs.php .. which I believe is Marillat's UCLA depository, and also downloaded them manually. The latest version is generally '20080610' .. However, installing the cvs's in place of the older deleted pkgs gives me the same error msg: Tohunga:/home/adam/Downloads# dpkg -i libavcodeccvs51_20080414-0.0_i386.deb (Reading database ... 317407 files and directories currently installed.) Unpacking libavcodeccvs51 (from libavcodeccvs51_20080414-0.0_i386.deb) ... dpkg: error processing libavcodeccvs51_20080414-0.0_i386.deb (--install): trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/libavcodec.so.51', which is also in package libavcodec51 Errors were encountered while processing: libavcodeccvs51_20080414-0.0_i386.deb 'libavcodec.so.51' is a symlink ..
