Clean install of Slackware 10.2. Wine 0.9.20. Downloaded slackware package. Installed with KPackage via KDE, no errors. I have several Windows apps that I used under Wine with Slackware 10.0.

Hello, I'm talking about the following hole: http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2009-2663 In Slackware 12.2, so far, the current libvorbis version is still 1.2.0. My question is: I don't use ".OGG" files, but I regularly listen to a OGG webstream. Am I secure in this situation or could a corrupted webstream trigger the discussed bug? Thanks in advance Yours

I''m running Xen 3.0.2 on a system that''s based on Slackware 10.2 as Dom0. DomU is also slackware 10.2. Am using the kernel that came with 3.0.2 - no custom config, just a "make world", etc.. Did have to add grub of course. When I start up xend, I get the following on /var/adm/messages: Apr 23 21:04:11 rc25 kernel: Bridge firewalling registered Apr 23 21:04:11 rc25

Hello, I'm coming from Slackware and I'm searching for another distribution to run on my desktop and in near future also on a server. The *top priority* for me is security! I've test-installed CentOS on one of my test systems. So far anything went OK. After trying a bit, I would like to ask some questions: - What is the suggested way to get *secure and trusted* additional packages?

Not very important but installation of shorewall 4.4.14 (and probably other versions) on a old Slackware system (10.2) fails: install -T -o root -g root -m 0755 shorewall /sbin/shorewall ERROR: Failed to install -T -o root -g root -m 0755 shorewall /sbin/shorewall Setting T="" instead of T="-T" in install.sh solves the problem but it is not a solution. -- Regards,

I've found that in Slackware none of the programs are built for PAM. For example ldd /bin/login shows no libpam.so.0. Likewise for su, samba, sshd, and basically everything. For whatever reason, Slackware doesn't believe in PAM. Does AD login/authentication from a domain member absolutely *require* PAM? --Mark -----Original Message----- Date: Fri, 09 Sep 2016 00:23:24 -0400

Hello. I've tried to install openssh to my Linux Slackware boxes, but it works only for connecting to other hosts. The bug is in the auth-passwd.c of pppd. Slackware has it's own (or just an another) version of shadow package (if I've understood the problem correctly) with it's own password encryption manner. I do not use stuff like Kerberos, PAM etc. As a result, the line

Hallo, I try to compile samba 3.4.5 in my slackware installation (slackware- current). Kernel compiling and compiling other packets works as desired. I use the "samba.SlackBuild" script from slackware.org (changing the version number of samba only). <ftp://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/linux/slackware/slackware_source/n/samba/samba.SlackBuild> Compiling 3.4.5 shows -------- Start

I'm running a Slackware 7-based Linux distribution. I had a problem using openssh 2.3.0p1. Slackware 7 uses shadow passwords. Openssh picks up the shadow password information correctly but doesn't encrypt the incoming password properly so all password authentication fails. The problem is that sshd *must* be compiled with the link flag '-lcrypt' which includes libcrypt with the
