Hi all, Does anyone know of a Linux firewall that offers layer 8 firewall / user level firewalling? Cyberoam (http://www.cyberoam.com/firewall.html) has a layer 8 firewall built into their UTM firewalls, and while it's a great product I find it a bit limited for what I want. I basically want to track which user access what on the internet, from an internal network. Ideally I want to limit

Hi, Does anyone know how I can monitor our server's for blacklisting? We run a large amount of shared hosting & reseller hosting servers and from time to time one of the IP's will get blacklisted.

HVM = fully virtualized. The question is, why are you using fully virtualized domUs?

Hi all If I do a "dig mydomain.co.za" from a Linux server, how do I know which DNS nameserver returns the queries? I seem to have a faulty DNS server, but can't see which one, so I want to find out which nameserver (if there's 4 - ns1.myserver, ns2.myserver, ns3.myserver & ns4.myserver) returns the queries? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Web:

Hi all, I need to setup a real bare minimum CentOS Virtual Machine, but with normal internet / network access. i.e. I need SSH, Mutt, Links, lynx, ping, tracert, dig, iptables, etc. Does anyone know where (if?) I can get a list of applications which gets installed with CentOS 6 if every option is deselected in the installer so that I can see what I can remove which isn't really necessary

Hi, How, if possible, do I only show a user's quota limits when he logs into SSH? For example, I set a soft limit of 10GB on this user, but when he logs in he can see all the limits: -sh-3.2$ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/fluid01-root 38G 36G 530M 99% / /dev/mapper/fluid01-home 48G 15G 30G 34%

Hi all I hope anyone can help me with this. I'm trying to get vmware to play along nicely on CentOS 5.1 x64, but I get errors when I try and start a vmx image, or list them.

Hi, Does anyone know of a stable / working "2way authentication" system for SSH, and even web authentication services? Most of the banks in South Africa have a system that, when you want to make a payment, they send you an SMS and you need to verify the action with a secret code which was SMS'd to you. gmail also has this.

Hi all, Has anyone managed to get CentOS 6 domU (i.e. guest) working on a Debian 6 do0? Both OS''s are 32bit and I''m running XEN 4.0.1 with HVM support. A CentOS 5.6 domU works fine on this very same server though. When I start CentOS 6, I get the following error: newusaxen:~# xm create -c /xen/genocide.cfg Using config file "/xen/genocide.cfg". xenconsole: Could

Hi all, Has anyone seen something like this before: I want to use a laptop as a KVM console. Basically when a technician goes to one of our datacentres, or clients he has to look for a free LCD, keyboard & mouse to connect to a server (no network access, reinstall, troubleshoot failed kernel / HDD, etc). And then hopefully there's an open power socker in that cabinet. So I'm

Hi all I've been thinking about using CentOS on a Dell R200 server and turn it into a firewall / network monitor / traffic shaper in our datacentre, instead of using a dedicated firewall device. One of the devices that I have been looking at, with my limited budget, is the D-Link DFL 860 - http://www.netdefend.eu/Product.aspx?m=15&ref=DFL-860 It provides AV, SPI, VPN, DOS, P2P, etc

Hi all I have a remote server (i.e SSH access only) which was incorrectly partitioned and I urgently need to get it up and running. It's got a 500GB HDD, but the PV is only 10GB big, so I can't add more LV's to to. P.S. This is on LVM, btw.

Hi all, I have a CentOS 5.4 server-only installation, i.e. no X installed, and for some odd reason /etc/resolve.conf gets overwritten by NetworkManager on a constant basis.

This is the conents of the file right now: # Generated by NetworkManager # No nameservers found; try putting DNS servers into

Hi, I have a problematic CentOS XEN server and hope someone could point me in the right direction to optimize it a bit.
