src/etc/rc.firewall simple ${fw_pass} tcp from any to any established
Hi security@ list,
In my self written, large ipfw rule set, I had something that passed
http to allow me to browse most but not all remote sites. For years
I assumed the few sites I had difficulty with were cases pppoed MTU
!= 1500, from not having installed tcpmssd on my 4.*-RELEASE, but
then running 6.1-RELEASE I realised that wasn't the problem.

seeding dev/random in 5.5
I was doing some regression testing in 5.5: Specifically testing booting
up a 'virgin' hard disk from a clean install.
I was testing what happened if the 300 second timeout happened vs
hitting <return> for 'fast+insecure' startup and punching in a bunch of
random garbage.
I found that for some reason, on a 2.4Ghz Celeron, the 'sysctl -a' and

Anti-Rootkit app
Hi all,
I need to install an anti-rootkid in a lot of servers. I know that
there're several options: tripwire, aide, chkrootkit...
?What do you prefer?
Obviously, I have to define my needs:
- easy setup and configuration
- actively developed

ports / www/linux-seamonkey / flashplugin vulnerability
Hi!
Since linux-flashplugin7 r63 is vulnerable according to
http://vuxml.FreeBSD.org/7c75d48c-429b-11db-afae-000c6ec775d9.html
isn't www/linux-seamonkey vulerable, too (it seems to include 7 r25)?
Bye

scan() Bug?
I'm reading a file into a list by:
PDF = scan("file",what="character",sep="\10")
"\10" is the newline character in this file, also tried "\n" originally
On lines that are ended by "\13\10", both are dropped from the list entry
I want scan to keep the "\13" in the list entry.
Is this a bug or just a strange feature?

strange problem with ipfw and rc.conf
Hi all:
I have strange probelm with rc.conf. I set up ipfw
(compiled into kernel) on freebsd-5.4 and it doesn't
seem to load ipfw rulesets (it uses default ruleset
65335 locking out everything). I have to do "sh
/etc/ipfw.rules" in order to load the rulesets, once I
did that, I can access the box from remote locations
here is my rc.conf:

Problem with package SNOW on MacOS X 10.5.5
Hello All,
I can run the "lower level" functions OK, but many of the higher level

MacOSX 10.5.5, I get the
following error:

comments on handbook chapter
``You do not want to overbuild your security or you will interfere
with the detection side, and detection is one of the single most
important aspects of any security mechanism. For example, it makes
little sense to set the schg flag (see chflags(1)) on every system
binary because while this may temporarily protect the binaries, it
prevents an attacker who has broken in from making an easily

Problems with smbmount
I have a problem. When I mount my CD (witch is on WIN97 machine) using
smbmount I do not see all files in all dirs. If dir have more then, let say,
100 files (it is not the same every time), I do not see all files.
This is a problem because on my Linux box I do not have CD-ROM, so if I have
to install some packages I first have to copy rpm files on disk, and then
install them witch is annoying.

Port scan from Apache?
Hi everyone,
today I got an e-mail from a company claiming that my server is doing
port scans on their firewall machine. I found that hard to believe so I
started checking the box.
The company rep told me that the scan was originating at port 80 with
destination port 8254 on their machine. I couldn't find any hints as to
why that computer was subject to the alleged port scans. Searching

theora_decode_init should be zeroing the theora state structure right?
