alex88hi guys..someone ever used portknocking?10:20
SpamapSalex88: long ago I did.. had a script that would tail my deny logs.10:38
alex88SpamapS: sorry for late answer..but i'm thinking..you need to knock the right ports in the right sequence?10:48
alex88will any error need you to restart the attempt?10:48
SpamapSalex88: yeah the idea is you have a script on your laptop/phone/whatever that just hits the sequence of ports and then the FW allows traffic from your IP10:49
=== nijaba_afk is now known as nijaba
alex88SpamapS: yeah i know the idea..my thought was that if someone will syn scan the full port range it will hit the ports10:51
=== cjwatson_ is now known as cjwatson
SpamapSalex88: the sequence is exact10:54
SpamapSalex88: if one port arrives that isn't in the seq, you assume that is not the right knock10:55
alex88SpamapS: so you have to restart from the beginning?10:58
SpamapSalex88: of course, otherwise as you say portscans would have a good chance of hitting your knock10:59
alex88SpamapS: that was my doubt.. thank you very much :)11:01
alex88oh, last one..how can portknocking be encrypted?11:02
SpamapSalex88: its a random sequence of numbers.. its already a key11:02
alex88i mean, if you sniff you see serveral tcp syn.. but those can be replayed..11:02
SpamapSalex88: you could use a OTP system, meaning you can only use one knock one time11:03
SpamapSand just pre-share a list of knocks11:03
alex88yeah read about that..but in this http://www.portknocking.org/view/knocklab/knock_lab it seems it just encrypt the config11:03
SpamapSalex88: I stopped using port knocking because it was a PITA to use on public terminals..11:05
alex88pita?11:06
SpamapSalex88: I found it was easier to simply carry public keys (1 privileged, one non-privileged) and disable password auth for SSH.11:06

Kartagispatdk-wk: I set horde to use IMAP auth17:25
patdk-wkare you sure the imap auth settings for horde and imp are the same?17:26

jcolepmatulis: how do i remove it?19:23
semiosiszertyui: if you want to grep for 'a OR b', you need to use the grep regexp for OR, which is vertical-bar |, so it needs to be escaped so the shell doesnt interpret it as a pipe... grep a\\\|b19:23

pmatulisjcole: did you install it manually?19:27
SpamapSzul: That one seems like it could be very tricky..19:27
SpamapSzul: not that its simple w/ sysvinit.. but there are a number of ways openvpn is used.19:28
zulSpamapS: yeah i looked at it before and shudder19:28
pmatulisjcole: why not just leave it alone?19:28
zulSpamapS: i was just looking at bugs and there are bugs like openvpn is started after x19:28
zertyuiis it possible to pickup a command from history ?19:29
jcolepmatulis: my users are getting libpam-runtime installed by default and pam-auth-update is borking their pam configs which are suppoe19:29
jcolebleh19:29
SpamapSzul: right.. there's really no reason to delay openvpn after its networking is available. The issue is that it sometimes needs a particular interface.. so we may need to be very smart and try starting it multiple times.19:30
pmatulisjcole: so stop using the command.  i don't get your problem really19:30
zulSpamapS: totally agreed19:30
pmatulisSpamapS: yes, like a bride, notably19:30
pmatulisheh19:30
pmatulisbridge19:30
SpamapShahahaha19:30
SpamapSzul: do we have a server team idea pool yet?19:31
jcolepmatulis: im not using pam auth update it gets automatically ran when some libs are installed (like ldap, krb, etc.)19:31
zulSpamapS: nope afaik19:31
jcolelibpam-runtimelibpam-runtime/overridebooleanfalse19:32
jcolepmatulis: that is the debconf value for disabling it ^^19:32
pmatulisjcole: that's weird - the interference, i've never seen it19:33
SpamapSpmatulis: meaning it creates a bridge, or needs a bridge before it starts? Therein lies the rub.. because its hard to know which.19:33
jcolepmatulis: tell you what, try this on your box: apt-get install krb5-config krb5-user ldap-utils libnss-db libnss-ldap libpam-ccreds libpam-krb5 libpam-ldap nss-updatedb19:34
pmatulisSpamapS: AFAIK, 'needs a bridge', but there is also the tap stuff that can screw things up19:34
jcolepmatulis: i support hardy on up, and some ubuntus dont have pam update, so you need a newer ubuntu19:35
pmatulisjcole: ah ok, "some ubuntus don't have pam update"19:35
pmatulisjcole: which release is borked?19:36
jcolepmatulis: now the problem is many of my users cant log into their boxen now19:36
jcolepmatulis: their pam config are all scerwed up19:36
SpamapSpmatulis: right, so I'm thinking we may need to really tightly integrate openvpn w/ upstart and run one upstart job per physical interface that comes up.19:37
SpamapSWhich.. at that point, sounds like ifup-post.d19:37
jcolepmatulis: it looks like ldap/krb libs have config scripts for pam-auth-update so that must be why pam-auth-update is invoked19:38
pmatulisjcole: which release is borked?19:38
jcolepmatulis: i know at least lucid and maverick19:38

jcolepmatulis: try to revert/remove it (-r) and see what happens19:41
pmatulisjcole: why do you say the prompt is due to pam-auth-update?19:41
jcolepmatulis: im thinking maybe because im disabling pam-auth-update in debconf ("libpam-runtime libpam-runtime/override boolean false") there is no "bare" pam config being generated19:45
pmatulisjcole: you did that before experiencing any grief?19:46
jcolepmatulis: so, running auth-client-config does create a "bare" config for my users.. now, if they reverted auth-client-config, there is no "bare" config to go back to because pam-auth-update never created one in the first place19:46
jcolepmatulis: try to revert you auth-client-config (-r) and then try to login locally19:48
jcolepmatulis: chance is, you dont have a bare pam config that will work19:48

pmatulisjcole: did you make the debconf change before things went pear-shaped?19:49
jcolepmatulis: there is a debconf prompt that asks you if you want pam-auth-update to manage you pam configs, setting that debconf value disables it19:51
jcolepmatulis: i am having auth-client-config manage my pam configs19:51
pmatulisjcole: well, like you hypothesize, it looks like these tools are inter-dependent19:53
jcolepmatulis: did you try to -r your auth-client-config and check if you can still login?19:53
pmatulisjcole: i'm not doing any tests right now19:53
jcolepmatulis: well, it seems i should use pam-auth-update to mange pam since all ubuntu/debian auth packages (ldap/krb/etc) now include configs for pam-auth-update19:56
pmatulisjcole: probably if you let the system do what it wants you should be good but that doesn't help you now does it?19:56
jcolepmatulis: i was using auth-client-update at first because the ubuntu wiki talks about it here -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AuthClientConfig19:57

jcolepmatulis: if i could, i would add a "conflicts" for it to my control file20:02
pmatulisjcole: how/why did such a thing run for them?20:03
jcolepmatulis: like i told you above, its after installing the krb/ldap libs20:03
jcolepmatulis: ubuntu/debian krb/ldap libs have configs included in them by default for pam-auth-update, so pam-auth-update prompts to run20:04
pmatulisjcole: right, so they should never install such packages20:04
jcolepmatulis: what?20:05
SpamapShallyn: so, that package hasn't been uploaded to lucid-proposed yet, has it?20:05
jcolepmatulis: i want to enable ldap logins, so i need the ldap libs20:05
pmatulisjcole: it sounds like you're migrating existing systems so you should get into a management tool (puppet) or create a custom package that automates things20:06
jcolepmatulis: what is the alternate package for libpam-ldap that does not include pam-auth-update configs?20:06
jcolepmatulis: or libpam-krb?20:06
jcolepmatulis: is that on the ubuntu wiki/docs somewhere for managing logins?20:08

hallynSpamapS: i don't know if it has been today, but don't think so20:13
pmatulisjcole: i gave you 2 ideas above20:13
SpamapShallyn: I'm asking because verification-* usually has special meaning regarding testing the packages in -proposed20:15
jcolepmatulis: what im doing is very simple, manage nss/pam with a config file for auth-client-config, that's it20:15
hallynSpamapS: then I goofed20:15
pmatulisjcole: how did modify debconf for these packages?20:15
hallynSpamapS: i thought verification-needed/done were with respect to SRU process before going into -proposed20:16
hallynSpamapS: pls to remove that tag :)20:16
SpamapShallyn: ok, well it sounds like its ready for upload to -proposed. You have per-package upload on it right?20:16
pmatulisjcole: pam, ldap, kerberos is not simple i'm afraid.  especially when end users are doing the configuring20:16
* hallyn tilts his head20:17
jcolepmatulis: in my package, i have depends on those krb/ldap libs above, an auth-client-config file and a debconf value that tells pam-auth-update "No" for managing pam20:17
pmatulisjcole: ah, so you have a custom package then20:17
SpamapShallyn: ok so you should upload your package to lucid-proposed then and ask Richard to test again if he can from -proposed. ;)20:17
hallynsigh, what's the bug# again.  this thing doesn't color usermsgs on playback20:17

pmatulisjcole: so, how does it go pear-shaped?20:27
jcolepmatulis: reverting the auth-client-config20:27
pmatulisjcole: why revert then?20:27
Davieykirkland, seems not20:27
SpamapShallyn: whatever results in the exact same package as your PPA had being uploaded. :)20:28
SpamapShallyn: IMO, dput is probably simpler.. but merging *should* result in the same thing.20:28
Davieykirkland, seems you and zul are most active :)20:28
hallynSpamapS: all right i'll give UDD a sporting chance20:29
jcolepmatulis: many reasons, because some users want to remove the package or they dont want ldap logins, etc.20:29
pmatulisjcole: ah!20:29
jcolepmatulis: i think the reverted configuration is not bare enough to even allow local logins20:29
jcolepmatulis: sine pam-auth-update never runs20:30
jcolesince*20:30
jcolepmatulis: so, im wondering if the recommended way on ubuntu is to use *both* pam-auth-update and auth-client-config20:30
sorenScottK: Wicked, thanks.20:30
pmatulisjcole: in my travels i have never seen the need to disable anything using debconfg20:32
pmatulisjcole: so i guess the answer to your wondering is 'yes'20:33
jcolepmatulis: youve never seen seeded debconf to configure/disable applications?20:34
jcolepmatulis: you can either do it manually with dpkg-reconfigure or with debconf-set-selections or a preseed file in a package20:35
pmatulisjcole: i meant in ldap/krb situation20:38
jcolepmatulis: dpkg-reconfigure krb5-config20:38
pmatulisjcole: "in my travels i have never seen the need to disable anything using debconf when using ldap/krb"20:39
jcolepmatulis: if pam-auth-update uses that debconf value to determine if it should manage pam configs or not, then how else should i tell pam-auth-update to not manage pam configs besides updating that debconf value?20:42
jcolepmatulis: thanks for the food for thought... im going to use a hybrid method20:43
pmatulisjcole: that's the thing, you *don't* tell it not to manage pam20:44
pmatulisjcole: basically i see your issue an 'overengineered problem'20:45
jcolepmatulis: how do you suggest to manage pam configs?20:46
kirklandDaviey: heh20:47
jcolepmatulis: i hardly see an auth-client-update config file or an pam-auth-update config file as "over-engineering"20:48
RoAkSoAxkirkland: so It seems that once I finish patching koan to install Ubuntu KVM's, using the NQA pressed is going to be trivial20:48
kirklandDaviey: I'd rather just talk to zul in #ubuntu-server then :-)20:48
kirklandRoAkSoAx: neat20:49
adam_g_hi--does anyone know if there has been any progress or news regarding this issue, other than what is on the ticket? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/666211 -- ive been running into the same issue between different filesystems and block device flavors repeadetly over the last 1.5 weeks on ec220:49
uvirtbotLaunchpad bug 666211 in linux "maverick on ec2 64bit ext4 deadlock" [High,Confirmed]20:49
pmatulisjcole: over-engineering by disabling stuff.  you don't need to do that20:55
pmatulisjcole: and as you see, it messes things up20:55
smoseradam_g_, i think, unfortunately, the bug has the right status20:57
smoseri do not htink that smb has been able to make any progress on it.20:57
smoserbut having an easy recreate would be helpful20:58
jcolepmatulis: disabling pam-auth-update and using auth-client-config, is like disabling exim so you can use postfix20:59
adam_g_smoser: i wouldn't say i can reliably reproduce on-demand, but i come across it frequently enough.20:59
pmatulisjcole: that's your assumption.  it may not be correct.  and like i said, i never needed to do such a thing and i never had such a problem21:14
io_errorHello! I am about to install 10.04 LTS on a private KVM virtual machine. Should I: "Install Ubuntu Server" or "Install Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud"? What's the difference?21:32
leniosio_error, you should install server21:33
io_errorlenios: Thanks. But what's the difference?21:34
io_errorThe website is so full of marketing buzzspeak that I can't tell what's really going on21:34
RoAkSoAxio_error: it says it there "Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud"21:35
RoAkSoAxio_error: Install Ubuntu Server installs only the server compoennets21:35
leniosif you want to create your cloud using ubuntu, you'll use "install ubuntu enterprise cloud"21:35
RoAkSoAxto run whatever you want21:35
io_errorlenios: OK, so it installs the tools you would build a private cloud with?21:35
RoAkSoAxwhile the other than installs a server, but with the software package for Eucalyptus based Cloud21:35
leniosyes21:35
io_errorRoAkSoAx, lenios: Ah, now I get it. Thanks :) Not building any private clouds today...21:36

shaiguit1ron 10.04 ubuntu23:17
raphink_let's see, you're missing aliases.db23:17
shaiguit1rthere's no mention of /etc/aliases.db23:17
raphink_try23:17
raphink_sudo touch /etc/aliases23:18
raphink_sudo newaliases23:18
patdk-lapaliases comes in by default23:18

raphink_then you're just missing "sudo newaliases" shaiguit1r23:18
shaiguit1r sudo touch /etc/aliases &&  sudo newaliases &&  sudo service postfix restart23:18
shaiguit1r?23:19
raphink_yes23:19
raphink_the touch is not necessary since you already have the file23:19
shaiguit1rroot@Ubuntu-1004-lucid-32-minimal ~ # sudo newaliases23:19
shaiguit1rpostalias: fatal: open database /etc/aliases.db: Permission denied23:19
shaiguit1rNeed to touch the db file first?23:20
raphink_huhu23:20
raphink_is your filesystem OK ? ;-)23:20
shaiguit1roh dont' get me worried :)23:20
patdk-lapnewalias doesn't careabout timestamps23:21
patdk-lapit updates it, no matter what23:21
* shaiguit1r straces it23:21
red2kicI have a question about whois.net -- Am I allowed to contact the owner? I hate lawyer jargons.23:21
raphink_patdk-lap: I had recommended the touch in case the file didn't exist, not because of the timestamp23:21
patdk-lapI know23:21
patdk-lapbut he seems to be stuck on timestamps23:22
shaiguit1rhmm, weird!23:22
shaiguit1reven after touching the file, it doesn't open it, and I'm root.23:22
raphink_red2kic: the owner of whois.net ? or the owner of a domain?23:22
red2kicraphink_: The owner of a domain name.23:23
raphink_red2kic: if you've got the address, what prevents you from writing to someone?23:23
raphink_shaiguit1r: did you check that your partition is not mounted read-only?23:23
red2kicraphink_: I pretty much have little next to zero experiences with websites.23:24
patdk-lappeople call me from my whois info all the time23:25
patdk-lapthe usa spammer that did it, has moved to china though23:26
shaiguit1rraphink_: I can touch and rm the file, so I doubt it.23:26
raphink_by the way red2kic, there's a `whois` command that does the same as whois.net23:26
raphink_shaiguit1r: do you have selinux set up on this box?23:27
shaiguit1rroot@Ubuntu-1004-lucid-32-minimal ~ # touch /etc/aliases.db && rm /etc/aliases.db && echo $?23:27
shaiguit1r023:27
shaiguit1rnope, don't think so23:27
red2kicraphink_: Ah. That's a cool command!23:27
raphink_shaiguit1r: you could still check23:28
raphink_ps axZ | grep postfix23:28
raphink_to see if it's confined23:28
shaiguit1rbah!23:28
shaiguit1rraphink_: my bad, /etc/aliases was owned by www-data!23:28
shaiguit1rfor some reason23:28
shaiguit1rsay, all of /etc/ should be owned by root, is that correct?23:28
raphink_that shouldn't prevent root from writing to /etc/aliases.db23:29
shaiguit1rnewaliases just worked23:29
shaiguit1rit did23:29
raphink_really23:29
shaiguit1r-rw-r--r-- 1 www-data www-data 51 2011-04-05 00:19 /etc/aliases23:29
shaiguit1rother doesn't have w23:29
shaiguit1rbut yeah,that's weird.23:29
raphink_that said, it's a better idea to give /etc/aliases to root than www-data ;-)23:29
shaiguit1r:)23:29
shaiguit1rright23:29
raphink_given your system conffiles to apache's user is usually a bad idea for other reasons ;-)23:29
shaiguit1rthanks. So all of /etc/ can safely be moved to root right?23:30
raphink_let's see23:30
raphink_in general, yes, but not always23:30
raphink_sudo find /etc/ -not -user root -exec ls -l {} \;23:30
raphink_I've got a few files that don't belong to root23:30
shaiguit1rwhich pacakges?23:31
raphink_openfire configurations for example23:31
raphink_but that's not standard confs23:31
raphink_in general, everything belongs to root there23:31
shaunoI've only got one, bind/rndc.key is bind:bind.  a fair few which aren't root's group tho23:31
shaiguit1roh which?23:31
shaiguit1rah for DNS23:32
shaiguit1rnothing else?23:32
raphink_sudo find /etc/ -not -user root -exec ls -l {} \;23:33
raphink_will list the files that don't belong to root23:33
shaunohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/589454/   that's a fairly boring box, mail & dns.  group ownerships seem to be used in a fair few places tho23:37
shaunoroot:root is a sane plan if your ownerships are seriously messed up, but there will be cleaning up to do23:37
shauno(enough cleaning up that it wouldn't be my Plan A)23:37
patdk-lapheh, my list of not root is much much larger23:41
patdk-lapand my system isn't screwed up :)23:41
shaiguit1rheh23:42
shaiguit1rI did that chown to www-data in the past, it was my bad.23:42
patdk-lapcouchdb, quagga, ssl, shadow, cups, backuppc, munin23:42
patdk-lapseems to be the big offenders23:43
shaiguit1rchowne dit back to root, we'll work our way through problems next up.23:43
shaiguit1rOK, so the postfix works great, thanks for the help!23:44
shaiguit1rGreat community.23:44
shaiguit1rta.23:44
