Hi Are there any known security holes or necessary precautions in using port forwarding with ipportfw? I'm planning on forwarding ports from an outer firewall/router (connected to the Internet) to a host in the DMZ, then on from the DMZ host to the inner firewall, and finally from the inner firewall to some host on the inside. Thanks, Jens jph@strengur.is From mail@mail.redhat.com Wed

Ran into a weird problem, and this seemed a good forum to toss it out into -- if I've gaffed, please let me know. Just upgraded my RH5.0 box to RH5.2. Went well, worked nearly seamlessly. When running 5.0, though, I'd installed the opie-fied ftpd that comes with the most recent opie package (ftp://ftp.inner.net/pub/opie/opie-2.32.tar.gz) and had it work without a hitch. I'd also

Hi, When php3 module is compiled in apache, files in any directory will be interpreted by the parser and executed. This is a security breach. There is a way to correct this? Any comments?

This may be, or may not be a security issue, however, since alot of people still use tripwire-1.2 or lesser versions(this is what shipped with R.H. Linux 5.2 at least), they might be interested in following detail: Chuck Campbell (campbell@neosoft.com) pointed me out that tripwire dies with coredump on R.H. linux, if it hits a filename containing 128-255 characters.

Hi A friend of mine managed to corrupt his block group descriptor table. When starting e2fsck, it says that it is corrupt and will use the backup. Great! However, will e2fsck be able to fix this, or will I have to do this manually? The FSCK is still running, expected to finish "pass 1" in about four hours.

Hi, I Emailed this afternoon that bwlimit leads to a much too low bwlimit if small amounts of data are sent in each write. I wrote a small patch now. Congrats on the code: It's nice and clean: I wrote a working patch in 5 minutes after examining a total of 25 lines of code. (My backup used to require two hours of small sleeps alone, which should be reduced by a factor of 8....)

Automatic renewal The Ubuntu package for certbot comes pre-configured with systemd timer that will automatically renew existing certificates. What it does not handle however is reloading postfix/dovecot so that they will begin using the new certificates. For that, we need to implement a hook. Certbot has both pre and post hooks that you can use to execute a script prior to and after the renewal
