Tom47i was wondering is there any documentation that an administrator might refer to eg ... how to limit internet access?02:35
=== martoya [n=paranoia@164.77.49.10] has joined #edubuntu
Tom47i suppose thats two questions .... ok one at a time ...02:37
RichEdTom47: limit in what way ?02:37
Tom47how do you limit/manage/control thin client internet access?02:37
RichEdthat is not really an o/s or Ubuntu function, it comes more under 3rd party filtering02:37
Tom47ummm it woul be a real issue for a school though ....02:38
RichEdoh ... I see what you mean now ... but that would really again be done against the user logged in, regardless of what sort of workstation i.e. fat / thin02:38
Tom47thin02:38
RichEdi mean that fat or thin is not the issue, it would be against user logged in ...02:39
Tom47yes true but would apply to classes of users eg students, employeess, etc02:39
Tom47yes riched sorry i misread yu initially02:39
RichEdI'm guessing that you'd use a firewall / proxy programme, looking at each user by login name ...02:40
RichEdso if BobC logged in from the LAB using a thin client today, and then via a fat client in the library tomorrow, you'd want both sessions to be logged, stats accumulated etc. against the user02:41
Tom47wouldn't a school want to implement policies thoughwhich applied to everyone rather than needing to set up each sudent individually?02:41
RichEdso you'd make a policy for "members of the group students" another for "members of the group staff" and add user BobC to the group students02:42
RichEdi think there may be some ideas on this in the wiki ... let me do a quick search02:42

ograTom47, for professional solitions (i.e. standalone firewall machine) we have smootwall on the server addon CD ... you can just install a commandline system on a spare machine with two NICs and install smothwall on top ...11:11
ograif you want filtering directly on the server have a look at willow (its in universe)11:11

Tom47ogra what is the thinking behind non-running of firewalls on the server?02:31
ograTom47, well, a firewall is a security barrier02:42
ograyou dont even want user accounts on such a thing if you want real security02:42
Tom47oic02:42
=== ogra knows people that even compile monolithic kernels for firewalls to make it more secure)
Tom47i just installed willow ..... now to get it to run !!!!02:43
Tom47ok02:43
ograyou usually also dont install any stuff beyond what you need ... i.e. no compiler so hackers dont have opportunities to change binaries in case they break in etc02:44
Tom47the thing we are trying to achieve here is basically to continue to allow access to the net from the server for software updates ec but prevent user browsers from going anywhere but to the apps on the server02:44
Tom47yes ... ok .... am only setting out on the pth to server wisdom and appreciat the insight02:45
Tom47the main browser app on the server is one based on tomcat/mtsql and i would like it isolated from exernal access as well02:46
Tom47mysql02:46
`6ogTom47, make it run on loopback02:48
Tom47it is presently accessed via 127.0.0.1:81880 ... is that what you mean by 'on the loopback' ?02:49
Tom478180*02:50
`6ogmake it run on any 127.*.*.* address02:51
Tom47ok right yes ty and that stops any external access ?02:51

sgonzalezI'm trying to connect my edubuntu servers to Active Directory. I need to install kerberos (krb5-user) to do this, but when I try to install it, I get an error that it depend on krb5-config and that is not installable. Anyone have any ideas why?04:56
Kamping_Kaisersgonzalez, what version of ubuntu?04:57
sgonzalezedubuntu 7.0404:58
sgonzalezI did this same process using ubuntu 6.06 and it worked great. I'm fairly new to Linux, so I don't understand why packages won't install.04:59
Kamping_Kaisersgonzalez, the package may have been made "badly"04:59
Kamping_Kaiseri havent used 704, so i'm still trying to decide if i'll be any use *heh*05:00
sgonzalezKK: besides googling looking for others' experiences and chats like this, any way to know if it actually works?05:00
Kamping_Kaisersgonzalez, can you give me the exact error your getting?05:01
Kamping_Kaiseraccording to packages.ubuntu.com both packages exist, so i'm trying to work out the root of the problem05:01
sgonzalezThe following packages have unmet dependencies:05:01
sgonzalezkrb5-user: Depends: krb5-config but it is not installable.05:01
sgonzalezE: broken packages05:02
Kamping_Kaisersgonzalez, try and install krb5-config on its own05:03
=== Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #edubuntu

sgonzalezE: package krb5-config has no installation candidate05:03
Kamping_Kaisersgonzalez, run 'sudo apt-get update' then try again (could you pastebin the output of apt-get update and of your /etc/apt/sources.list too)05:04
sgonzalezARGH! My network is down for some reason. Maybe that's my problem (I'm chatting from a different machine) Give me a minute to check this out.05:06
Kamping_Kaiserhehe. np05:09
sgonzalezWell, I did mess up my gw setting, but after fixing it still can't install krb5-user or config. I don't know how to do a pastebin... can you tell me how?05:12
Kamping_Kaiser!paste05:13
ubotupastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)05:13
Kamping_Kaiserhave a look there ^^05:13
