owhHello all. I'm running an 8.04.4 and I've just come out of the good end of a hack scare. I saw fetchmail su success in my logs, only to realise that this was related to a reboot. I don't think the server has been compromised, but would like some suggestions on what tools to use to scan binaries etc. The next question is, are there any recommendations on intrusion detection tools?00:15
flaccidowh: i'd just upgrade it from 8.04 which has known vulns and then use ossec00:21
owhflaccid: "just upgrade" is not quite so trivial as there are a range of services running on that machine. There is a project in place to rebuild the machine with the current LTS, but that's not going to happen any time soon, but thanks for the comment.00:29
flaccidnot sure what else you could do if you are not happy with the pkg versions in that release..00:31
owhNo, I'm happy enough, I'm just looking for recommendations to scan the server for any "tweaked" binaries and a recommendation for an intrusion detection system.00:32
nick58bowh: rkhunter and chkrootkit?00:37
nick58bowh: aide works well on ubuntu for ids00:37
owhExcellent, I'll have a squiz. Thanks nick58b00:39
owhHmm, rkhunter is before it happens as you need to populate the database with your current system. Sort of like the first tool you install :)00:41
nick58baide is going to be the same way00:42
owhIs there anything that checks against the ubuntu repository for example?00:43
nick58bclamav might be able to detect malicious files00:44
nick58bnot sure00:44
owhWell, I only ever install binaries from the repository so if we start with the assumption that they have not been compromised, then any change of a binary should be "simple" to detect.00:47
[7hunderbird]I was wondering if anyone knew how to write to the hybridfox db (I think it's a sqlite db)00:48
owhI suppose I could download all packages, unpack them one for one, and compare them.00:48
owh[7hunderbird]: You can use any number of sqlite libraries.00:49
[7hunderbird]I was thinking of creating a script that grabs my credentials from a search result API and then inserts them into hybridfox's db for me so I don't have to manually copy and paste them myself00:50
[7hunderbird]right but I don't know which db to use, so far I've not been able to determine where it stores it00:50
owhI don't understand. You just told us that the database was an sqlite database.00:51
[7hunderbird]I know the general vacinity on my mac os x box.00:51
[7hunderbird]owh:  I said "I think it's a sqlite db"00:51
[7hunderbird]that's an assumption00:51
owhuse the find command to locate the actual file.00:51
owhUnder OSX, which BTW has nothing to do with Ubuntu Server or Ubuntu Virtual, you can use a tool written by a friend of mine called Keyboard Maestro to automate the copy and paste.00:53
[7hunderbird]hybridfox is cross platform00:54
[7hunderbird]and I was looking for a room to get some ideas and feedback00:55
[7hunderbird]searches online provided these rooms as possibilities00:55

three18ti_how do I get MAAS running on a machine that doesn't support PXE Boot?  Is it possible?05:36
bigjoolsI thought you could boot from a CD, not sure where that stands though05:37
Ztanein ec2+instance store, is it possible to use all the ephemeral disk space on the root partition?05:40
three18ti_well...  When you run the ubuntu installer you can "add" the node to MAAS, but it immediately shuts down the machine.  When you go to "accept and provision" as I understand, it should WoL and boot the machine but since the BIOS doesn't support WoL/PXE, there's a link to the AvahiBoot, but all the wiki page says is "when we have a usb image"05:42

maruqwhen I retry, I get another mirror & it pulls down from there14:12
maruq@_ruben well, internal DNS isn't guaranteed on AWS (you lose it on shutdown, etc)14:12
maruqit could be that a node has been changed & not pushed to apt sources yet, etc14:13

uncommittedis this the appropriate place to ask about an nfs/ldap issue that's driving me bonkers? :)23:08
greppyuncommitted: it might be, you can ask, if someone can answer, they will :)23:11
uncommittedokay, so i've got an NFS share that a few of us use, wer'e in a group called "siteops" and the shared directory has 771 permissions. When I first log into the server, I can access this directory just fine. However, after about 20 minutes I can not longer access the directory. Like the group permissions somehow expire.23:15
uncommittedrestarting nscd doesn't seem to make any difference23:16
pipegeekHi, folks.23:37
pipegeekHas anyone successfully preseeded the precise debian-installer yet?  I'm having a heck of a time figuring out why mirror/http/hostname is being ignored.23:37
pipegeekI'd love to see the source to choose-mirror :)23:45
pipegeeknot from trunk, but specifically the version used in precise23:46
pipegeekI'm not sure where to look23:46
pipegeekit doesn't seem to be in the debian-installer source package23:46
pipegeekheh.  Because it's a separate package.  whew23:47
Psi-JackErmm.\23:55
Psi-Jackprecise "debian" installer?23:55
pipegeekPsi-Jack: Yes, the installer for ubuntu server is called "debian-installer"23:56
Piciand alternate, (and minimal?) too.23:56
pipegeekPsi-Jack: And the version in precise seems to ignore d-i mirror/http/hostname23:56
pipegeekand /directory23:56
pipegeekwhich makes it impossible to specify which mirror to use.23:57
pipegeekI'm trying to figure out why23:57
pipegeekI've now got my hands on the choose-mirror source23:57
pipegeekbut if someone who's run into this before wanted to chime in, I"d be much obliged23:57
Psi-JackI dunno. heh. I'm waiting on release notes for the upgrade process for 11.10 and 10.04 LTS to 12.04 LTS23:58
