I'm trying to build an image for some software that I've written and having troubles figuring out how to get started. [16:32] hmm, I thought that was pretty simple [16:33] install ubuntu into ec2 [16:33] install software you want, configure it how you want [16:33] then back it up to s3 [16:33] publish backup in s3 as ami, done [16:36] well that certainly does sound easy. [16:36] I'm sure there are a few catchs :) [16:37] like first time run scripts to configure the ip and machine name when it's installed from the ami, that would be lost doing it that way [16:37] but otherwise, yep [16:38] why would that matter? i'm assuming EC2 has a DHCP server to provide IPs [16:38] I didn't think it used dhcp [16:38] been awhile since I last used ec2 though [16:44] what's a good channel to ask some fiber channel/multipath questions on ubuntu?

[21:44] sorry ubottu, I am used to msn messenger [21:44] Do I need to worry about security lower than L3 ? [21:44] rarely [21:44] unless you're afraid of attacks on the LAN [21:45] but then, arptables can do filtering as well [21:45] It's in a data centre, I assume they will protect against local attacks [21:45] for any sysadmin, a pinch of paranoia is good, but don't add too much of it [21:45] I am beyond a pinch :D [21:46] david5345: I'm quite sure you will be sharing the network with others in the same datacentre [21:46] Yes, but would any of them launch an attack against me ? [21:47] david5345: you never know - one can be hacked and try to do so, but if they do, they would probably try on IP, L3, so it shouldn't be much of a problem [21:47] Do I need to worry about 5, 6, and 7 ? Does 7 include installing secure programs and keeping them patched ? [21:47] L2 and down is pretty well secured already, unless there's a bad driver somewhere [21:49] L7 is application protocols - they should be fairly secure - but "L8+" (no such thing, but still) is usually the problem - some bad code and suddenly you have an XSS or DoS or even local exploit [21:49] HTTP is a good example of a L7 protocol [21:49] Wonderful! [21:50] HTTP is only as secure as the backend such as apache or PHP [21:50] HTTP is secure, and so is apache, but adding PHP or CGI or something to that (all of which uses HTTP for transport) can open doors [21:51] RoyK: L8 = you and me ;-) so what might L8+ really be? [21:52] I'd call php and the gang L8, you and me comes a wee bit further up :) [21:52] L>7 is highly subjective :) [21:53] indeed :-) [21:53] apache = L8 [21:53] PHP = L9, MySQL = L10 :D [21:53] apache = L5-7 [21:53] apache doesn't do much >L7 [21:53] I dislike apache, I now use lighttpd. It uses up less resouces :) [21:54] but it can call PHP etc, which is on a higher level [21:54] lighty is nice, but Apache works too [21:54] I guess that's just a matter of taste [21:55] I also wrote a apparmor.d profile for my PHP code, I figure that should help me keep things secure [21:57] Actually, I really like apparmor.d now that I understand it.

[22:54] ehw venet0 doesnt have an ipv4, venet0:0 has an ipv4 [22:54] bezao: can you put venet+ as the interface name and give it a try? [22:55] on the iptables file? [22:55] sure, let me try [22:55] right, after -i in the iptables commands [22:57] it works, i have access to ssh but i cant ping, even if i comment the line about ping [22:58] comment or uncomment, ping doesnt work.
