Hello, I am trying to monitor a host in the Amazon EC2 cloud. Yet when I try to check NRPE from the monitoring host I am getting an SSL handshake error: [root at monitor1:~] #/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_nrpe -H ops.jokefire.com CHECK_NRPE: Error - Could not complete SSL handshake. And if I telnet into the host on port 5666 to see if the FW port is open, the connection closes right away:

Hi, I hate to have my first post be a bug, but this drove me crazy for a while. I compiled the latest version from source and followed the instalation instructions. I then copied the xinetd.d entries from the Wiki and proceded to test. No matter what I did I could not log on. I found that while I was editing /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf, nothing was hapening. I then started it manualy and found

I have a RedHat 9.0 machine and just updated to samba-3.0.5pre1. I had been running Samba to network two Windoze computers and using a network printer. Two weeks ago my house was apparently hit by lightning which created havoc with my computer/server. I got it going again but have noticed several lingering problems. For one thing, I can't print from it. I was going to check things

I can run nmbd successfully, but smbd dies almost immediately when I run it, the smbd.log file has the message "bind failed on port 139 socket_addr = 0.0.0.0.". When I do a netstat -an | grep 139, it shows that tcp is listening on port 139. How do I resolve this conflict between tcp and smbd?

I am interested in opinions regarding the use of xinetd versus the use of tcp wrappers. The two programs have similar functionality, but I find xinetd suits my needs better. The biggest problem is the age of xinetd, and AFAIK it is no longer being kept up. Are there any known security issues with xinetd? Another issue is that xinetd makes use of a non-standard inetd.conf layout, but

The only docs I found on getting SWAT to run, showed editing the inetd.conf file. As this version of RH (7.3) only uses xinetd things don't fit exactly. I have gone through and did everything that one should do for inetd and it still will not work. I don't normally use the thing, but this client will need the more simplistic interface to add shares, etc.

Hello, I am a new user of SAMBA. I have a problem in installing SAMBA on our new ALPHA server is that I would like to access the SWAT after install the SAMBA. I try to login SWAT from IE5 with the user "root" but just only return with the message "401Authorization Required". Is there any mistake during the installation or anything wrong for the configuration ? Please

I was playing with this on my test machine, (redhat 5.2, samba 2.0.3) worked great, and I was really impressed. So I decided to install this on my office machine. (redhat 4.2, samba 2.0.3) and the only significant difference is that on the office machine, I use encrypted passwords. I cannot get swat to authenticate on the second machine. That is, no matter what account, password combination

I have got now Redhat 7.0 and when I want to install Swat I need to edit the file /etc/inetd.conf but in Redhat 7.0 the file is named to /etc/xinetd.conf and /etc/xinetd.d can you help me ? (In Redhat 6.1 it worked alright) Greetz Rob op den kelder -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed

Hi all, I'm sure this is a quick fix, but I've not found the answer yet. On a fresh install of CentOS5, I need to use an alternate port for ftp. Currently vsftpd wants the standard port which is in use by another system on my NATted network. So...how does one go about reconfiguring vsftpd to do this? I've looked in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf to no avail. In my Slackware days,

Hello All, I've been studying dovecot for replacing my company's current system and I got a little worried about an aspect of the dovecot's design. I was surprised that dovecot doesn't use prefork for its mail processes, forking a new processes for each new client connection. Talking in the #dovecot channel I was gave a scenario of a system supporting ~40k users with 4 servers

Help! I finally got it installed, and now I can't get into SWAT... I go to http://servername:901, and get a 'The connection was refused by the server" Can anybody tell me what dumb thig I'm doing wrong? I really ned to get this thing working tonight... Thanks Charles Marcus

Hi all, I have recently installed samba-2.2.7-3.7.3.i386.rpm,samba-common-2.2.7-3.7.3.i386.rpm, samba-client-2.2.7-3.7.3.i386.rpm and samba-swat-2.2.7-3.7.3.i386.rpm. After i installed all these, I start the SMB services and i enable swat, but when i tried to access SWAT from the browser, using : http://localhost:901 or http://127.0.0.1:901 it returns with " the document contain no data.

Hopefully I'm not out to lunch here. I ported tftp-hpa to our proprietary OS, VOS (at stratus.com). We've always runs the old legacy tftpd from inetd, so I wanted to continue doing so with tftp-hpa. It seems to work okay, but I noticed that the code in tftpd.c has a 'while (1)' loop that has this at the end: /* * Now that we have read the request packet from

I just got a nice, shiny new machine at work, a Core 2 Duo, on which I just finished installing CentOS 5.2 with a fair number of packages, SeaMonkey 1.1.10, Adobe Reader 8.0, Adobe Flash 9.0, mplayer, mplayerplug-in (both from rpmforge), and I think that was it. Then I went and got the latest VMWare Server, 1.0.7, from VMWare, pulled down their rpm, installed it, and ran vmware-config.pl, which

Hello Guys, First off let me say thanks for your efforts on Samba. Next I have a problem, I dled the samba 2.2.2 tarball and installed it and now I am at the configuration stage. It says I have to add two lines netbios-ssn lines to the inetd.conf file. Well, unfortunately there is no inetd.conf. However there is an xinetd.conf file is that the same thing and if so, what and where do I

Hi I am back thought I should start a new mail... since i lost track of previous. Anyways, Does Dovecot require courier-authdaemon or whatever it is called to run? When running the following i recieve the following output should I kill inet from 143 or not. aries:/etc/init.d# netstat -ltnp | grep ':143' tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:143 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN

Does anyone know of a way to rate limit ssh connections from an IP address ? We are starting to see more and more brute force attempts to guess simple passwords "/usr/sbin/inetd -wWl -C 10" is nice for slowing down attempts to services launched via inetd. Is there an equiv method for doing this to sshd? Running from inetd has some issues supposedly. ---Mike
