Sernet 4.3.X package is no longer free :/
Maurik,
You are right. I am currently using 4.1.17 and have the same failed login
messages as you describe. There is, however, a bit more information further down
in the logfile:
[2015/10/07 16:51:24.076283, 2] authentication for user [HPRS/Administrator] FAILED with error NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD

time variable throttling rsync traffic
I am using rsync to back up across a VPN. Unfortunately, every so often the
home office miscreants drop a big block of data into the backup and that
particular backup cycle takes many hours. These same people also complain when
net pipe is filled during the day.
What I need is an ability to change the bwlimit based on time of day. Any
suggestions as to how to do this?

Asterisk SIP attacks and sshguard
Hello,
We had been seeing SIP-guessing attacks on our Asterisk server here.
While it wasn't that hard to write a once-a-minute cron job to spank
the lusers, that runs once a minute and creates little spikes in the
usage and I/O graphs, and is slower to respond than I'd really prefer.
I felt that it'd be much cooler to get something more comprehensive
put together. We don't use

flac fingerprint
hi,
i found this explanation of the flac fingerprint somewhere:
'A FLAC Fingerprint is generated only for the audio data portion of
the file. (Therefore, changing the filename or the tags or
FlacMetadata does not change the fingerprint calculation.) In
contrast, an .md5 is generated against the whole file, including
header portions.'
so i was wondering what advantages it could give me

[fdo] Freedesktop sdk aka 'tiny base runtime' project
...aintenance effort (1-2 branches at
a time).
## Code of Conduct
We've discussed a simple but effective code of conduct, along the lines
of: use common sense: don't abuse others and don't misbehave. When
anyone does, folk should tell the mergers, who will be generally annoyed
at the miscreants, and may take actions.
OK, so I think this covers all the initial important points, if I've
missed anything then please feel free to add that.
Thanks,
Laurence

Kernel-loadable Root Kits
...thing, but can be a pain to do upgrades around
remotely. [A lot of folks use FreeBSD simply because its a breeze to run
remotely].
3) Until someone writes code to add modules to a kernel via /dev/mem and
releases it to the script kiddie world, the bar has been effectively
raised for 99% of the miscreants out there.
4) Marketing-wise, it will make folks who don't understand the issues
very deeply more comfortable. And as in #3, that is probably a 99%
accurate feeling.
5) For those of us using automatic updating systems, having modules and
kernels out of sync is bad potentially, so NO_KLD he...

shorewall iprange tweak
I often find myself doing,
whois some.damned.ip.address
and then copying and pasting the address range for
the miscreant in question, and doing,
shorewall iprange x.x.x.x-y.y.y.y
with the aim to drop the entire range.
My one minor complaint is that I often have to edit out
the spaces between the hyphen when copying and pasting
the address range returned by whois. I tweaked the shorewall

Testing the .flac file against its internally stored fingerprint lets
you know that you have a properly encoded .flac file of *something*. If
you also certify that internally stored fingerprint

how to block brute force attacks on reverse tunnels?
For many years I've been running ssh reverse tunnels on portable Linux,
OpenWRT, Android etc. hosts so they can be accessed from a server whose
IP is stable (I call such a server a "nexus host"). Increasingly there's
a problem with brute force attacks on the nexus host's tunnel ports. The
attack is forwarded to the portable tunneling host, where it fails, but
it chews up

It's very unlikely that this was an employee calling Mom for 66 hours (I'm
assuming these calls appeared on a single bill). It's also unlikely that
someone "inside" would benefit financially from making these calls. (Follow
the money!) Don't discount the possibility that you've overlooked something
in the firewall.
Meanwhile, does the client need to do international

Did you have a look at the phone it self already?
Is call forwarding activated or something and can you call the
phone/extension from externally?
I have seen this in the past where an employee enabled call forwarding
on the phone and once at home he or family called the phone which
forwarded the call to abroad.
Good luck. Michel.

For dovecot 2.1
as per wiki2, is this still valid? noticed a problem before and saw
it does seem to be triggering, I use:

findtime = 600
bantime = 3600
and there was like, 2400 hits in 4 minutes, it is pointing to the
correct log file, but I am no expert with fail2ban, so not sure if the

Unsupported Printers - just "sticks" in the lpd queue ;(
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hello:
I've configured a Linux box with Samba to act as a secondary domain
controller for an existing NT server. I've gotten everything working very
nicely, all my file shares set up, etc.
I've got 6 printers that I need to set up as print shares. The ones that
speak Postscript or PCL were very easy to set up, and work admirably.

Augeas type: Removing an entry from /etc/hosts
Hi all,
I''m just starting to look at using Augeas with Puppet to manage some of
our configuration files. I thought I would start with a simple task of
removing an entry from the /etc/hosts file. I''m not finding it simple
though!
We have a number of hosts with entries in the /etc/hosts file like this:
127.0.1.1 hostname
We would like to remove these lines. Now I know this can
