So you want to setup a service where random spammer/hacker can trivially DDOS your system? How many simultaneous 5GB streams can you handle? How much will your bandwidth bill be if you send 5GB a million times in a month? --

I have the same, create your own dns blacklist. And have fail2ban add entries to it. The only problem I have on CentOS6 is that you need to combine log files for this, but it should be do-able. But I am also for this option, maybe it can be done via this userdb, specify an account where auth is not necessary. I would like to redirect sometimes a user to a 5GB garbage messages mailbox. Or if

I am getting this error in logs net_connect_unix(/var/run/dovecot/stats-writer) failed: Permission den)) and I looked around the google results and it seems to be related to using service stats, which I am not using. # doveconf -n | grep stat # doveconf -n | head -3 # 2.3.5.1 (7ec6d0ade): /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # Pigeonhole version 0.5.5 (2483b085) # OS: FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p4

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

Say for instance you have some one trying to constantly access an account Has any of you made something creative like this: * configure that account to allow to login with any password * link that account to something like /dev/zero that generates infinite amount of messages (maybe send an archive of virusses?) * transferring TB's of data to this harassing client. I think it would be

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 As you all may know Fyodor of nmap fame has terminated SCO's rights to distribute namp with its products. See: http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2004/02/27/1077676955381.html I know this is off-topic, but I am interested in opinions on the subject of SCO using Samba in it's products while they declare the GPL is unconstitutional and invalid.

We have setup Samba3 and joined the server to the AD domain. problem is when I run wbinfo -u I get the error msg "Error looking up users". If I use the syntax "wbinfo -a domain+user%password -g, it rec msgs back that the passwd succeeded but still does not let me list groups.

Hi list I currently having troubles to "connect" dovecot (for proxy) to an existing LDAP. If I got the dovecot wiki right only userdb is needed for a proxy setup where the proxy does not authenticate but just forward to the backend for authentication. So I setup the following in dovecot-ldap.conf.ext user_attrs = =password,=y=nopasswd,=y=proxy,mailHost=host user_filter =

If I do not change the configuration, and just issue the restart, reload, etc. then it behaves as expected. Obviously that is not useful when you

I'm running Mandriva 2007 and like the eye candy of of the 3d desktop but wine is more important to me. Whenever I start with with the 3d desktop turned on though any 3d games I have will either crash or report that I don't have a 3d card. Is there any way round this or am I to be denied the pleasure of the wibbly wobbly windows?

Hi, Since upgrading to 7.3 I am having a problem getting sshd to reload after configuration changes. When I issue the command "systemctl reload sshd.service" I get the following error: "Unit sshd.service cannot be reloaded because it is inactive." It is obviously still running because I am connected over ssh to the machine and netstat shows it is listening. (vnewman pts3) #

Hi, Does anyone know of a good program for doing RDP to windows servers on C-7? The "Remote desktop viewer" program that comes with C7 is not reliable for me. I frequently have multiple long running RDP sessions and the keyboard will stop responding. The only way I can find to get it started again is to restart the program and login to the servers again. In addition, I cannot find a

Marc, There is a strategy loosely referred to as "choose your battles well" :-) Let the others bother with their own problems. If you can, hack the server and dump the 500GB - you'll be using resources transferring the 500GB as the other server receives it. Two servers wasting resources because you think you are punishing an offender! On Thu, 11 Apr 2019 at 13:43, Marc Roos

Has anyone at all gotten the Samab 3.0 to integrate into the FreeBSD 5.1 Name Service switcher? Are there patches avaliable? Does anyone know where to get the FreeBSD nss api so I can try to fix the code my self? I keep getting the following errors in my logs NSSWITCH(nss_method_lookup): winbind, passwd, getpwnam_r, not found

How big is difference between encoding speeds of libspeex compiled with arm-asm, and without it? My application is written in EVC++, but there is no inline assembler, so I have to compile speex without arm-asm. But I still trying to find a way to use speex with arm-asm under my EVC++ application. I tried to compile speex with arm-asm under gcc (arm-wince-pe), but generated static link

Did you actually change something before doing the restart? If nothing changes it will restart every time. If I

Hi, I am trying to figure out how to do p2v and v2v migrations on a Centos 7 kvm host. With previous versions there was virt-p2v but that does not seem to exist with Centos-7. I realize that if I am using shared storage, I can do live migrations but that does not help with p2v migrations. Does anyone know what the recommended procedure is for migrating either physical or virtual machines to
