What is the most efficient way to block access to 8-10k IP addresses?
My server runs EngineX on Debian.
If possible, I would like to show all of the addresses an Internal Server Error (500).
I am running a 6.5 version of Teamcity on a Debian Squeeze server and I use OpenLDAP to authenticate users.
I know I can use LDAPS to be able to use encrypted password authentication, however this has been deprecated by the OpenLDAP developers, see: http://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/605.html
I would like to know if there is a way to configure LDAP authentication in Teamcity to use StartTLS on port 389.
I can't find anything about it here: http://confluence.jetbrains.net/display/TCD65/LDAP+Integration
Or here: http://therightstuff.de/2009/02/02/How-To-Set-Up-Secure-LDAP-Authentication-With-TeamCity.aspx
Hi,
Today I spent more than an hour trying to get Skype set up on my Linux box (Debian testing), but I couldn't make my microphone to work correctly. So I hear the other person talking, but they can't hear me. I am running KDE 4.3 and Skype 2.1 Beta. What do I need to do to get it working?
I am looking to see if anything exists that would allow us to capture all outgoing email on a machine -- for example, in a staging environment -- and drop it in a single place, which ideally would be something we could check with a mail client.
Currently we're doing this on the software level (if environment is staging, rewrite address) which is a bit ugly and leads to errors.
The servers are currently on Debian Linux, using exim as the mail transport.
Open to any and all suggestions!
Hi,
What is the best way to install a plugin capable of playing real videos for Debian Linux?
In particular I want this web page to run correctly under Iceweasel and Chrome:
http://bleau.info/sabots/781-1267.html
I have been looking about for one and wanted to see what places people would recommend, the main technology's I am planning on running on this is a LAMP setup preferably either running Debian or a LTS release of Ubuntu.
I've commented out a line in the crontab on a debian server, which I guess was there by default yet was causing me to get error emails every hour:
# m h dom mon dow user command
17 * * * * root cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
However, the error emails keep coming in as if it hasn't been commented out. The error emails:
Subject: Cron <root@(none)> root cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly (failed)
/bin/sh: root: not found
Any ideas?
Hi Everyone
Hope you can help me, up until last night all sites on my server were displaying fine but now whenever you visit any of them you get the default - "Welcome to Your New Home in Cyberspace!" page - all the domains are setup right, have been working and were working until last night and i haven't edited any of the apache files so i really can't see why they have broken, i am using Debian and all the sites have been activated
Really hope someone can help me

Am looking for a PDF reader that can navigate PDF files like a web browser (IE, when I click a link that takes me to another part of the doc, I should be able to go back by pressing Ctrl+left arrow). I am using Debian.
We have installed the rubygem application (version 1.3.6) on a Debian system by downloading the rubygems tar.gz archive and running the setup.rb command.
What is the best way to uninstall this application?
I am looking for a command-line tool for Unix (ideally, available in a Debian / Ubuntu package) for extracting all MIME parts from a multipart email message (or the body from a singlepart with an interesting content-type, for that matter).
I have been using the mimeexplode tool which ships with the Perl MIME::Tools package, but it's not really production quality (the script is included as an example only, and has issues with what it regards as "evil" character sets) and I could certainly roll my own script based on that, but if this particular wheel has already been innovated, perhaps I shouldn't.
I'm running a dedicated server with a couple of game servers running on 4 different IP addresses. The most network-heavy server times out a few times during peak hours and all other communication (FTP/SSH) through the same IP also briefly times out. Other servers using other IPs are fine and unaffected as well as FTP/SSH using other IPs. The server is running Debian 6.
What causes this, and is there anything I can do?
On a server running Debian Wheezy and Samba ver 3 with a tdb backend, how do I restrict a single user from changing the password? This account is one of 2 generic accounts, one for students and one for Teachers on Call (TOC). The users are created, but I'm not deploying the server yet. When looking through Google, I came across setting the maximum password age, but not setting the minumum password age (I'd be happy with a 5 year password...)
I'va remote linux debian server that 99.9% of the time I access via ssh remotely. However I was aware that the local terminal is sitting there with a logon prompt. Is there anything I could change this to, or log in and run locally and safely leave running? Physical access to the server is limited to me but a secure situation would be preferable.
Thanks..

I have a server that is managed by Syscp.
The question is, if there are unresolveable dependencies, or services, that are managed by syscp already? For example Zimbra is intended using postfix but syscp is managing that already.
I guess, that will not be possible, but maybe without having the full functionality of Zimbra. I only need the calendar and contacts-support with CalDav.
(besides: I am using debian sqeeze but this is interesting in general)
Some (most?) packages in Debian, have tags. For example:
=# apt-cache show squirrelmail | perl -lne 'print if /^Tag:/.../^\S/'
Tag: implemented-in::php, interface::web, mail::imap, mail::smtp,
mail::user-agent, network::server, protocol::http, protocol::imap,
protocol::smtp, role::program, scope::application, use::browsing,
use::editing, use::searching, use::transmission, use::viewing,
web::TODO, web::application, works-with::mail
Section: web
But, I can't find a way, to list all packages with given tag. Is it possible?
In Konsole (KDE on Debian), when I try control arrow key to move to next or previous word in a line, it prints 5d or 5c instead of moving forward/back one word. How do I activate these shortcuts?
Also, the shortcuts work fine in other applications.
I'm new to LDAP and I'm trying to add the mmc.ldif and mail.ldif files that come with Mandriva Directory Server to my LDAP configuration, using the command :
ldapadd -x -W -D "cn=admin,dc=biganon,dc=com" -f schema/mmc.ldif
I then give the admin password I've set during slapd installation but get this error :
ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)
I have no slapd.conf file.
I'm on Debian 6.0.1, OpenLDAP 2.4.23
Thank you
Am looking for a PDF reader that can navigate PDF files like a web browser (IE, when I click a link that takes me to another part of the doc, I should be able to go back by pressing Ctrl+left arrow). I am using Debian.
I'm trying to configure my Debian (6.0) server to forward emails sent to root to a mailing-list.
I set the ML address in /etc/aliases this way:
root: [email protected]
I then called newaliases.
It doesn't work but when I call mail from the command line it works :/
echo "test" | mail -s"test message" [email protected]
If I set my own email address in /etc/aliases it's working too.
Any idea where it could come from ?
Thanks
Hello serverfault,
I would like to enable the PUT and DELETE methods to any .php script on my Apache web server.
Currently I only have this answer :
The requested method PUT is not
allowed for the URL /something.php
I'm running Apache2 / PHP5 on a Debian lenny.

Hello All..
We have a debian machine running with firewall / gateway. We have deployed darkstat on it.
When we installed darkstat it was showing statistics properly. After few days it stopped
showing recent statistics. The data was getting appended to existing one. Please anyone tell
me what could be the problem.
Thanks In Advance.
I have a virtual machine (Debian) running on a physical machine host. The virtual machine acts as a buffer for data that it frequently receives over the local network (the period for this data is 0.5s, so a fairly high throughput). Any data received is stored on the virtual machine and repeatedly forwarded to an external server over UDP. Once the external server acknowledges (over UDP) that it has received a data packet, the original data is deleted from the virtual machine and not sent to the external server again. The internet connection that connects the VM and the external server is unreliable, meaning it could be down for days at a time.
The physical machine that hosts the VM gets its power cut several times per day at random. There is no way to tell when this is about to happen and it is not possible to add a UPS, a battery, or a similar solution to the system.
Originally, the data was stored on a file-based HSQLDB database on the virtual machine. However, the frequent power cuts eventually cause the database script file to become corrupted (not at the file system level, i.e. it is readable, but HSQLDB can't make sense of it), which leads to my question:
How should data be stored in an environment where power cuts can and do happen frequently?
One option I can think of is using flat files, saving each packet of data as a file on the file system. This way if a file is corrupted due to loss of power, it can be ignored and the rest of the data remains intact. This poses a few issues however, mainly related to the amount of data likely being stored on the virtual machine. At 0.5s between each piece of data, 1,728,000 files will be generated in 10 days. This at least means using a file system with an increased number of inodes to store this data (the current file system setup ran out of inodes at ~250,000 messages and 30% disk space used). Also, it is hard (not impossible) to manage.
Are there any other options? Are there database engines that run on Debian that would not get corrupted by power cuts? Also, what file system should be used for this? ext3 is what is used at the moment.
The software that runs on the virtual machine is written using Java 6, so hopefully the solution would not be incompatible.
