HostbasedAuthentication, and my sillyness
Maybe I just can't read properly, but I just spent the best part of a day trying to work out why HostbasedAuthentication wouldn't work for me (with protocol 2 in openssh-2.9p1). It seems (though maybe there is something wrong with my install), that after enabling it in the sshd_config it doesn't work, since the client will not in fact request it (by default). I was fooled by the

New x86-64 micro-architecture levels
...of precision. E.g. what Florian already mentioned: sse4 - does it imply 4.1 and 4.2, or avx512: what of F, CD, ER, PF, VL, DQ, BW, IFMA, VBMI, 4VNNIW, 4FMAPS, VPOPCNTDQ, VNNI, VBMI2, BITALG, VP2INTERSECT, GFNI, VPCLMULQDQ, VAES does that one imply (rhethorical question, list shown just to make sillyness explicit). Regarding precision: I think we should rule out any mathematically correct scheme, e.g. one in which every ISA subset gets an index and the directory name contains a hexnumber constructed by bits with the corresponding index being one or zero, depending on if the ISA subset is requi...

a (generic?!?) problem with server-side PATH to scp
...ull [...] PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin [...] bash: scp: command not found lost connection Maybe this is just a problem introduced my crazy ./configure for afs, but it seems like USER_PATH should be include bindir (ala --prefix) when --with-default-path=PATH is not used or somesuch hacking sillyness. I readly admit it's easy 'nuf to hack _PATH_STDPATH in defines.h, at any rate. later steve - - - systems & network guy high energy physics university of wisconsin

RSARhosts / Hostbased auth and euid=0 requirement
...ther make ssh the special case. - Allow said key files to be group readable Changing authfile.c:key_perm_ok() to allow group readable keys would allow us to make ssh setgid instead of setuid. Yes, this is insecure if someone is stupid enough to export their key files via NFS or some other such sillyness, but is safe for sane admins. If we do both of the above, ssh can be setgid ssh, and optionally use different keys for client and server identification. Host-based auth now works without a root-priveledged client. Damage from a security issue in ssh is limited to spoofing a trusted host, instea...

Sisvel's claim on MP3
Dear all, I just know that Sisvel (http://www.sisvel.com) claims patent on MP3 and starting charging fee on MP3 encoding/decoding (http://www.audiompeg.com). I take a look on its patent claims and it seems that they are very board. I wonder if vorbis would be affected by them.

SSH scans vs connection ratelimiting
Gang, For months now, we're all seeing repeated bruteforce attempts on SSH. I've configured my pf install to ratelimit TCP connections to port 22 and to automatically add IP-addresses that connect too fast to a table that's filtered: table <lamers> { } block quick from <lamers> to any pass in quick on $ext_if inet proto tcp from any to ($ext_if) port 22 modulate

Supermicro SAS/SATA controllers?
The standard controller that has been recommended in the past is the AOC-SAT2-MV8 - an 8 port with a marvel chipset. There have been several mentions of LSI based controllers on the mailing lists and I''m wondering about them. One obvious difference is that the Marvel contoller is PCI-X and the LSI controllers are PCI-E. Supermicro have several LSI controllers. AOC-USASLP-L8i with the

How to backup a slice ? - newbie
