I am not sure where instability with RH 8 came from, I have had nothing but good experiences with RH 8. Of course I keep all the current updates installed, but it has performed well both as a server...

Ok I wasn't going to reply, but I just can't help myself. I am not saying that sendmail is perfect. Everything has security holes, it is just a matter of someone looking for them. In that respect...

Ok I would have to disaggree that sendmail is atrocious. It is a very flexible system but does require a great deal of knowlege to use. If you are looking for something simple, then no sendmail is...

There are lots of free ones or cheap pc monitors, some or bad, some decent, but by far the best I have tried would have to be spector professional. You can find it at...

I am assuming that when you say you set it in /etc/inittab you mean you changed the line to read the following:

id:5:initdefault:

If that is correct I would check to make sure that isn't...

StormCr0w true sbin isn't in the normal user's path, but I actually tried to run it today to check that and it still wouldn't let me run it even though I "World" had read-execute permissions on it....

I wouldn't solely rely on the XP firewall but something is definitely better than nothing. More importantly I would make sure that you have all the patches and updates installed. Then do your...

I think this has been addressed from all angels but let me expand on one. If it works with DHCP but doesn't work with static IP addresses then I would check the following:

1. Make sure the Default...

Thanks phisphreek that is exactly what I was looking for. I had already searched google for the keywork "portsentry" and "portsentry download" but it just came up with the old site. Now I got what I...

Since Psionic went offline I was wondering if there is an archive site where the Trisentry tools (PortSentry, HostSentry, and LogSentry) can be downloaded. Either that or does anyone have the last...

If you are referring to RedHat 8 (which is what I use), you can disable that option by going to control center -> system -> login manager

Then you switch to administrator mode which requires the...

You can download a tool like this at http://www.mikkotech.com/download.html It is called keykey 2000

Not too involved but gets the job done.As far as how it does it, I would assume it triggers a...

That's true, but I guess I would have to only allow 53 to our specific dns IP address. I will give that a shot, that was the direction I was leaning anyway, I just wanted to know if there was a...

Does anyone have an idea on how to filter nslookup results from inside a firewall when trying to use an outside dns server as the source? Basically if I have a RedHat 7.2 server running iptables and...

Robo,

I am sure that we have all at time tried to do what was forbidden from us (I know I have). That is what makes us want to know how things tick, what makes the world go round and so on. But...

Here is another good Linux link. http://www.linuxlookup.com/

Notice the links to iso's for download. Comes in handy.

Ideally you want to disable file/print sharing if possible and/or remove from control panel (under network), and also block it in the firewall. I am not familiar with Norton Firewall (I use Outpost)...

Well to me there is no "target age" to start programming. If you can understand what you are doing then by all means do it. As for what to learn first, well learn what language you want to use most....

I have to aggree with KorpDeath, IT gets the short end of the stick on most things. They don't see your value until they need you, so you are always grabbing for scraps at budget time, and begging...

Ok well here is my desktop, I guess I will contribute since I have been enjoying everyone else's posts here.

I am running KDE 3.0 on RedHat Linux 8.0
Wallpaper is from anomoly called "gears"...

To answer your question yes a mail server will answer to your IP address. So username@192.168.1.1 will work (with a routable IP address of course). The problem is whether or not you have a static or...

I won't get into a whole speach or anything because I tend to get heated about this topic (since I spent 8 yrs of my life in the Marine Corps).

Anyway, it is kinda like a television. When you...

I agree with stormcrow iptables would be your best bet if you are looking to learn. After you are familiar with iptables you can use http://morizot.net/firewall/gen/ to generate you a firewall and...

I personally like Outpost
