    Ping problem

    Ok this is weird I noticed that for some reason someone had set a static ip under tcp/ip properties. I set it back to dhcp and now it is working. Weird because no dns info was set. Oh well working now.

    sed problem

    Ok by s command do you mean 's/regexp/replacement/'. I don't see any reference to an "n flag" in the man page under this section. In fact there is no reference to "flag" anywhere in the man page for sed on my system. I have been searching for a way to do this for like 2 weeks now. The only...

    ssh attacks and prevention

    Another thing, I have disabled root login in sshd_config with "PermitRootLogin no" As well I have disabled ssh access to all but one user which is a really long name so the chances of some script kiddies guessing a actual valid login name is small. in sshd_config u set 'AllowUsers myuser1...

    I have the same thing in my logs on a Mandrake system I have been looking into doing exactly what you have suggested and I have found some solutions which are basically a script that runs and checks you logs for invalid/illegal user/login attempts, then using that info you can update iptable I...

    postfix setup

    Figured out my problem was incorrect permissions on a tmp folder in the home directory of user 'mike'. The 'Bad address' is gone and 'mail' now functions correctly! Thanx again for your help mrballcb.

    postfix setup

    Thanks for the reply, I didn't realize su did that and I was using su. But I now have a different problem(of course). If i login to user mike with 'su - mike' or directly at the local machine, I get "Bad address" when i try to run mail.

    Routing question

    I cannot ping 10.8.0.x from the linux box(router/firewall) which serves ip's in the 192.168.1.x range. The firewall resides on another computer than the Openvpn server which hands out the 10.8.0.x ip's to vpn clients. Here is a diagram: _______________ linux firewall | port 1194 forwarded to...
