Hi everyone, I was getting lots of ftp finger pcanywhere probes and I thought applying some security for my pc. Here is what I have done Closed everything at /etc/inetd.conf I am using the Suse firewall script for the dialup connection to the internet. Basically I have closed everything I could think of. Also portsentry is starting with audp and atcp options. I have installed the logcheck also and this is the part I need to tweak a little bit. I only want to get informed when there is a Deny, Reject or Accept situation. If this is possible I need some direction to figure it out Thanks in advance -- Togan Muftuoglu toganm@turk.net 100% MS FREE Absolutely no component of Microsoft was used in the generation or posting of this e-mail.

Hi, I have an ancient Silicon Graphics machine here, running IRIX 5.3. Now this machine needs to be replaced, and I intend to replace it with a Linux box. As one of my compatibility experiments I tried copying a test password from the password field in the IRIX /etc/passwd to the password field in /etc/shadow on my own Linux box. Unfortunately I was not able to log in using this password. Does anyone know of a way to migrate my /etc/passwd from IRIX to Linux, so that all my users can immediately log into the new machine when it's installed? Cheers! Yuri. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- drs.

Basically you've got to find out what type of encryption your IRIX machine uses and install that same method of encyption on your linux machine. On Fri, 14 Jul 2000, Yuri Robbers wrote:
