Adding OpenBSD sudo to the FreeBSD base system?
Aloha! (I've Googled around a bit, but failed to find much previous posts about this though I'm sure it has been discussed...) Have anybody (in core etc) considered adding a sudo implementation to thr FreeBSD base system. At least for me, sudo is an important part of implementing good security policy in FreeBSD. Yes, it is available as a port, but in a similar fashion of for example,

sharing /etc/passwd
How 'bout PAM? /usr/ports/security/pam_ldap. If you have machines that can't do PAM, perhaps NIS is the way to go (assuming, of course, you're behind a firewall). You can store login information in LDAP like you want, then use a home-grown script to extract the information to a NIS map. Or, if you have a Solaris 8 machine lying around, you can cut out the middle step and use

iproute2 & kernel 2.6.3
Hi, I''m trying to compile iproute with my fresh kernel 2.6.3, it works well with 2.6.2 but impossible with this one.

Any suggestion ? make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/iproute2/lib'' gcc -D_GNU_SOURCE -O2 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wall -Werror -g -I../include-glibc -include

Does rsync detect file corruption?
Hello, Suppose that every day cron runs this: rsync -a --times --delete $HOME /my/backups/dir/latest In general, rsync will only update a file if it has been modified. Now, imagine that one of the files becomes corrupted in the backup directory, but the timestamp hasn't changed. Will rsync detect this? I am using rsync in a backup solution which could be summarized to: cd

yum checksum for updates fails
Hello, this is my first time sending to this list. I tried to found the most appropriate place to ask my question, and the most matching list was this. I hope not to be off-topic. Today, I tried to make a yum update to my centos machines, and I got an error for the updates channel. The error was: Metadata file does not match checksum Is there an issue on this?

How do fix a good solution against spam..
Heya folks First of all, sorry if this isn't the correct list, but yet, I think spam is a kind of network attack and should be treated as a security issue.. I run a working mail server using Postfix, MySQL, Courier-IMAP, SpamAssassin and ClamAV (amavisd-new) .. I've checked the configuration file for SpamAssassin, but yet I havn't find any good solution for spam.. Sure, spam will

Information disclosure?
Hello, For some reason, I thought little about the "clear" command today.. Let's say a privileged user (root) logs on, edit a sensitive file (e.g, a file containing a password, running vipw, etc) .. then runs clear and logout. Then anyone can press the scroll-lock command, scroll back up and read the sensitive information.. Isn't "clear" ment to clear the

Administrativia: Documentation project slightly on hold (sorry!)
Hello security folks I (not so) recently asked for volunteers to the security documentation project. I got delightfully large number of volunteers! Thank you! Right now I have some personal (medical) issues to deal with, and I'll be out of town for the next 2 weeks. When I get back, we can move ahead at top speed. The project will have 3 parts.

memory pages nulling when releasing
Hello everyone! Could you tell me if FreeBSD supports memory page nulling when releasing it to prevent unauthorized access to data left in the page after it's allocated again. If it does, what sys calls etc provide that? IMHO this is an important issue when operating data with different sensivity levels. Thanks in advance. Nick

Rsync, what are the max transfer limitations ?
What is the maximum transfer rate allowed for rsync? I mean the limitations? I can't get more than 50Mbit speed in my gigabit lan, with rsync server or with ssh. ftp transfers reach >400Mbit , so it is not a lan or nic problem. Maybe it has something to do with my cpu limitations? or the limitations for rsync is the 50Mb/s? Here is my rsyncd.conf if it helps > # by gourgi > max
