Re: By request: Shorewall on the B3
Are you guys hijacking my topic? vi is rubbish - it's a 2D rewrite of lineedit which is okay for typewriters, but nobody uses typewriters anymore. On with the next file and this is an important one. This is because if you shutdown Shorewall it does not actually disable the firewall but sets everythi...

Re: Tor + socks5
I know Tor does good things, but i stopped Tor because in the Netherlands this is used for child-pornografie distribution. Rene :shock: Yes, the concept of being able to use random IP's that do not trace back to you directly will be very much appealing to people that do controversial things. Howeve...

By request: Shorewall on the B3
First a statement: Shorewall is not a firewall - it's a script that uses your input variables to control iptables. Now we got that sorted out let's start with some safety measurements. Since we're about to do funny stuff with iptables and there's no console on the B3, we will want to be able to reve...

Re: Proftp refusing to start
I think if you'd entered proftpd in the searchbox above this forum you would have found the answer for this. The issue is that proftpd verifies the name it should advertise by doing a DNS check. The quick fix for this is to add this name to the hosts file. Now a second problem is that while there wo...

Re: Tor + socks5
AFAIK, TOR is strictly a Socks5 proxy. The basic setting is for it to listen to localhost connections only though, which actually makes sense because there's not many applications out there that will actually target Socks5 directly.

Re: samba shares and character set?
Well now the thing is that the SMB protocol does not include a way of telling what type of operating system is on the other end. In fact it can't even distinguish between different versions of Windows, with the older non-NT type Windows using codepage character sets during transmission and the curre...

Re: IPTables rule set
Well now, where to start.... Lets go with 1: The thing is that a specific service can in fact behave differently on each interface. You may even have a service that attaches itself to a port on a specific interface, and a second service that uses the same port on another interface. By targeting the ...

Re: Finding out what's using disk
Seconded
If you're worried (or anyone else is) about time having shifted after a reboot, you could consider writing the system time (which is controlled by ntp) to the hardware clock.
One place you could do that is hack into the ntp script and add this to the stop routine.

I think there was an issue with Debian changing their repositories not so long ago.

Re: Aliases
You could try ASSP - it's a bit heavy for the B3, but once started it works just fine (I use it myself). From the project page : Description The Anti-Spam SMTP Proxy (ASSP) Server project aims to create an open source platform-independent SMTP Proxy server which implements auto-whitelists, Bayesian,...

Re: B3: How to set a firewall rule for port 445
I just checked with Strato and they actually do offer a bunch of other methods to use their hidrive service. They have a test site for you to verify whether or not unencrypted SMB/CIFS will work for you: http://diag.hidrive.strato.com:445/ Since the B3 will allow this by default, if this fails it is...

Re: IPTables rule set
Wow! You're really throwing the whole Bubba firewall concept overboard now are you? A quick glimpse then. 1. That first rule doesn't really make that much sense to me. The object of this type of rules is to be able to route-back, i.e. to access a service that is connected to the same interface that ...
