unknown connect from my linux to my linux on port 443
by Tom Henderson 02 Aug '05

02 Aug '05

Hi Everybody, I´ve noticed some strange connections on my SuSE Linux9.0 Professional and hope that someone can give me some advice what that is about. In my iptables logfiles I found in regular intervals the following entries: Aug 2 16:14:28 localhost kernel: [FIREWALL OUTPUT-DROP] : IN= OUT=lo SRC=111.222.333.444 DST=111.222.333.444 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=20562 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=43084 DPT=443 WINDOW=32767 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 OPT (0204400C0402080A00E8DCAA0000000001030300) where the SRC & DST IP is my public fixed internet IP Adress. As I discovered this I set my iptables rule to DROP this kind of traffic but there the only thing that changed was that before I dropped the traffic I got SYN & ACK & RST Flags in the logs but after setting the rule to DROP there are only SYN Flags left. A "netstat -v -n -e -a -p" displays the following: tcp 0 0 111.222.333.444:443 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 0 7423195 28396/httpd2-prefor tcp 0 1 111.222.333.444:42692 111.222.333.444:443 SYN_SENT 0 8701223 28396/httpd2-prefor And to answer the question what listens on my Port 443, it is an apache2 2.0.53 BUT what I want to know is what kind of process continues to access my apache from the local host via the Interface " lo ". I´ve tried to find something in my apache logfiles but there is no entry, neither an error message nor some kind of information matching the timestamp I find in my iptables log. What I´ve tried is to find some kind of error message generated by some program after I blocked the traffic but there is no one to find. What I´ve also tried is accessing the firewall logs with "tail -f" and in another window the apache logfile as well but there is nothing to find. Can someone give me a hint where to look for or what to do to get rid of this or to get to know what kind of tool, proggie or whatever wants to access my apache on port 443? Kind regards Tom.

Ssuse 9.3 + FreeNX no connection
by Art Fore 02 Aug '05

02 Aug '05

Posted on the FreeNX help forum, but no answer. I have FreeNX setup on a server running suse 9.3 and am trying to connect with the nx client also on suse 9.3, different machine. I get the following on the details from the client NX> 203 NXSSH running with pid: 28190 NX> 285 Enabling check on switch command NX> 285 Enabling skip of SSH config files NX> 200 Connected to address: 192.168.0.4 on port: 22 NX> 202 Authenticating user: nx NX> 208 Using auth method: publickey NX> 204 Authentication failed. I followed the installation procedure and also copied the client.id_dsa.key file to the appropriate directory on the client machine. If I run nxserver --userlist I get my logon name listed. Any help would be appreciated. Art

It makes sense to me, tasks are just swapped out completely before swapping out memory pages; it is a raw partition, no drivers involved: just ideal. In fact, when restoring, some memory pages are not swapped back in, they stay off for days.

Samsung Yepp YP-T7Z on SuSE 9.2
by Marc Christensen 02 Aug '05

02 Aug '05

Hi all, I just purchased a Samsung Yepp YP-T7Z 1GB flash MSP/OGG player which I'm very happy with. Ahem...The tuner works great but I would like to get my ogg collection onto the player and I don't have windows at home. http://product.samsung.com/cgi-bin/nabc/product/b2c_product_detail.jsp?prod… So, from what I understand, the player should appear as a USB mass storage device with some folders inside for music, pictures, etc. to which I should be able to copy my music. The problem is that when I connect the player to the USB hub on my SuSE 9.2 box (with all available updates), the machine cranks away for about ten seconds before it stops and then I click on "My Computer" where nothing shows up. This behavior is unlike my 64MB USB flash drive that I use which shows up perfectly and unlike my 60GB USB harddisk which also works fine in this system. So, what's up? Anyone else seeing this behavior? Anyone else using a Samsung player with Linux? Thanks. -- Marc Christensen http://www.mecworks.com http://blog.mecworks.com http://gallery.mecworks.com

Re: [SLE] Failed Install On Dell L933r
by Adam Vazquez Kb2Jpd 02 Aug '05

hi there james. Start with the second disk and boot or at the bootup of the first disk tell it to start in text mode. Do the install in text mode and when you go to the SaX2 portion of the install, it will do a approximate best guess to get you into a graphical screen. Later on, you can google the dell and linux install and you can find the proper setting for everything else. Good luck and hope your brother in law gets it.

Siebel Clients for Linux
by Ben Higginbottom 02 Aug '05

02 Aug '05

Hello All, Does anyone know of a Siebel client for Linux, my current attempts at getting the thin client to work with IE under both Wine (25th Jul) and Crossover 4.2 have so far failed without even a spectacle. The thin client seems to use some ActiveX component which I had hoped Crossover would work around, and although it installs, whenever I try to access the sight it crashes. Whether this is the fault of the browser or Siebel I cannot be sure :) Many Thanks, Ben

Samba - LDAP - local
by Anders Norrbring 02 Aug '05

02 Aug '05

Would it be possible to run Samba3 with the LDAP backend, and still (somehow) use the 'net groupmap' function to map ntgroups to the local groups (like users, nogroup, games etc) or can I ONLY use groups in the LDAP database for group mapping? If it's doable, how should I do? -- Anders Norrbring Norrbring Consulting
