Thanks for the input. I've been playing with this MIB already and have found some real useful data but most of total MCast packets through an interface vice any way to say "I am subscribing to x number of MCast groups". It's important in our environment as Cisco has some ceilings with the...

I'd like to know how many multicast groups my switch is currently subscribing to. Is there an SNMP mib that I can pull against to get a) the total number or b) total per interface that can sum together? Anyone?

Why do you think DoD would not like it? The Netscape directory server is on the NIAP list (old but on the list). War...

No issue really. Thinking about implementing this and have a few questions up front. 1) Anyone ever use DoD CAC cards to authenticate client machines (mostly XP) against a RH Directory server. If it can't be done then no need to go to #2. 2) Is there a good reference (HowTo etc) for doing...

Anyone know a good forum for the Redhat Directory Server the Redhat Certificate server and/or the use of CAC cards to authenticate client logins? Thanks, W

Kirsle, That is the question and you confirmed what I suspected. One of my developers told me that the site he came from supporting did not have a localhost entry in the /etc/hosts file and I suggested the same possible result you did. I was just looking for a second opinion to back me up...

Two related questions: 1. Why would someone intentionally not set the loopback address in their hosts file. 2. What are the possible effects of this? I think I know the answer but wanted to get everyone's take. Thanks,

I've read a bunch of things regarding the fact that you can expect packet loss with smaller size packets (for instance with smart bits starting at 56 bytes and scaling up to 1280 bytes. But what I haven't seen is a plausible explanation as to why? Anyone? N

Anyone see a need to run Postfix in a jail if your running on RHEL 5 with SELINUX. There seems to be rules for all the usual mail gateway services; amavis, spamassassin etc. N

In my log file I have things like: client 207.7.108.215#32996: view nottrusted: query: 159.88.32.140.in-addr.arpa IN PTR - 03-Dec-2008 15:22:21.489 client 207.7.108.215#29209: view nottrusted: query: uws159.x.x.x IN A - 03-Dec-2008 15:22:50.359 client 206.13.29.59#11055: view nottrusted...

Using postfix. I'm more concerned with setting up the DNS side of things than I am the mail server at this point. I created a zone file like: ; BIND db file for ad servers - point all addresses to localhost ; ; $TTL 86400 @ IN SOA blacklist.x.x.x. root.x.x.x. (...

I've searched hi and lo for a good primer on setting up a DNS Blacklist. I finally got one set up but I'm not sure it's right. I'd like to find a no-sh?t guide that allows me to use a URL list vice an IP listing. THanks if you can help. have a good day if you can't. N

Looking for a good linux howto on this? Thanks, War

Not that Edcrosbys is not doing a fine job explaining things however a combination of IPTABLES and or TCP Wrappers will help you tighten down your sshd. I certainly agree that you need to limit who gets ssh from outside your forward facing interface. Either or both of these services...

netstat reports data found in /prov/dev/net in a user sort of friendly format. This data is re-initialized once the machine is rebooted. War.

It's GOOGLE for christ's sake. How many PhD's do they have over there. They should have known what I meant when I entered any one of my search criteria (just not that one lgarner). :) Thanks, I knew you could put static routes in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-eth0 for example. What I...

I need to add a static route using IP ROUTE 2 such as ip route add 10.0.0.0/24 dev eth0 mtu 1340 advmss 1300 via 10.0.4.1 How do I make that static so that if I need to do a service network restart, that route is automagically restored. Thanks, Nate

Thanks thedaver. Must have been a post-good-coffee moment. I guess my post was a little vague however at the time it made perfect sense to me. Here are some more specifics. If logged in to a session in run level 3 with no activity for a predefined period of time, the session will terminate...

Anyone know of a system setting that will terminate a terminal session after a duration of time? War

Thanks for the response. This was resolved but I did not have time to post the results. In the end it turned out to be some behavior from outside our domain. When I queried on the sender I did not see any emails coming to us from him over 284k in size. I was able to send myself 2 files, 1...
