Scenario: Use the ssh-keygen utility in openssh-1.2pre17 to generate a host key Kill and restart sshd Remove the old host key from ~/.ssh/known_hosts Connect to the host using ssh. I get this: homer.ka9q.ampr.org$ ssh 199.106.106.3 who The authenticity of host '199.106.106.3' can't be established. Key fingerprint is 1024 a0:8d:17:f0:fa:a9:9f:6f:b5:d0:1c:d6:02:92:bd:5e.

Dear R-Users, I want to ask a question for a colleague of mine. He wants to put a character vector and a numeric vector into one matrix and still have the old character and numeric type for the respective columns. Unfortunately, I am just starting using R and I could not help him. Is there an easy and straightforward way to do this in R? Maybe a little example facilitates understanding our

There's one vulnerability that's bugged me for some time. It applies to nearly all crypto software, including ssh. That's the swapping of sensitive info (such as keys and key equivalents) onto hard drives where they could possibly be recovered later. The Linux kernel provides a system call, mlock(), that inhibits swapping of a specified region of virtual memory. It locks it into real

Hi... I have tumpled over quite a big problem on my machine. I'm running Debian Potato with OpenSSH-1.2.3 protocol 1.5 installed from the debian packages. When I ssh from any computer (including my own) then I can't get any programs to display X. I have turned ForwardAgent and ForwardX11 on in my ssh_config. When I turn on debugging this is what I get: 17:14 simpsons at lada% ssh -v

Hi The following gotcha took me a long time to catch: f <- function(x, main0="red", ...){ par(col.axis=main0) plot(x,...) } f(1:10,main="title here") f(1:10,main="title here",main0="blue") I can't quite succinctly summarize why the second case works but the first one doesn't. -- Robin Hankin Uncertainty Analyst National

Just wanted to share this gotcha: 1. Create model A and initialize some record from within the very migration. 2. Create model B (perhaps 27 migrations later, two weeks later). 3. An observer of A uses B. Now you can''t do a fresh install (or go down to VERSION corresponding to 1. and then up). -- fxn

Just noticed a somewhat subtle gotcha when adding users to a Red Hat Linux system running winbindd. If you use 'adduser', it will see your winbindd uid range and think all the UIDs up to that point are in use. It'll then pick the next available one and use that for the new user ID. Winbindd, unaware of this, will go ahead and pick that UID for the next user you add to the NT domain!

The following gotcha caught me off-guard just now. I have two matrices, a and b: a <- matrix(1,3,3) b <- matrix(1,1,1) (note that both "a" and "b" are matrices). I want them in a list: > B <- NULL > B[[1]] <- a > B[[2]] <- b > B [[1]] [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 1 1 1 [2,] 1 1 1 [3,] 1 1 1 [[2]] [,1] [1,] 1

So they released openssl 101g to patch for a hole. One then wishes to recompile openssh. After ".configure" I get this: synergy[124]# make if test "doc" = "cat"; then manpage=./`echo scp.1.out | sed 's/\.[1-9]\.out$/\.0/'`; else manpage=./`echo scp.1.out | sed 's/\.out$//'`; fi; if test "doc" = "man"; then

Under OpenSSH 1.2pre17 I can duplicate and Input/Output error for scp: Conditions: pc36 is a RH6.0/i386 box. abc.co.za is a RH5.2/i386 box. (private network) openssh 1.2 pre 17 on both boxes. Line between them is a 128k leased line. It works between two 10baseT machines. If the scrollbar is active, the scp fails, if it isn't active, scp works. Note that without the scrollbar, the file gets

Hello, I've discovered homer-api-postgresql and homer-api-mysql packages in Stretch repo. I'm not sure I understand how Homer-API relates to Homer. My questions are: 1. What is the simplest available installation option to install Homer on a dedicated box, this dedicated box gathering data from one or several Asterisk systems on the same LAN ? 2. Is it possible to centralize data on a

Hello Everyone, I am relatively new to linux and Samba and I am having some difficulties setting Samba up as a Primary Domain Controller. Ihave read the Pdf document called "Using Samba as a PDC" by developrWorks and I have read most of the Howto documents relating to Samba. When I try to connect to my samba server with Win98se I get the message "no Domain server was able to

Hi All - I released 1.0.6 this morning, but there is apparently a bug related to rspec and autotest. I''ll be fixing this today (but not until tonight) so you have two options: Wait until 1.0.7 (tonight) Upgrade now to 1.0.6 but make sure you install the rspec gem. Thanks, David

One for the archive: Validation on a new password submission [/signup] was less than 30 characters [validates_length_of helper] but the resulting hash in the database was more than 30 [c40] ? the result was that in a relation JOIN that users the User model, the password *hash validates_length_of the hash [and not the original textual password] which silently fails and doesnt save the

I''ve been doing a lot of testing witn RMagick lately, in view of reports that it leaks memory. I''m happy to report that RMagick doesn''t seem to leak at all, when used as directed -- that is, when you remember to set the image variable to nil and call GC.start manually after you''re done with an image. BUT -- one ImageMagick format seems to be leaky! I was

Hey guys- to_json in Rails 1.2 produces json with unquoted keys, which is invalid. Therefore, publish_templatized_action produces invalid json for feed publishing, and you''ll get an error from Facebook. To fix this, put this line in environment.rb: ActiveSupport::JSON.unquote_hash_key_identifiers = false You don''t need to do this if you''re running Rails 2.0. Just a
