Linux antivirus scanners

Alex Carver — 2013-05-21T06:57:49

What are all of you in list-land using for a virus scanner on Linux 
(whether it's scanning the local system or the remote system)?

I'm using ClamAV now but I thought I'd get opinions on other possible 
options.  My intent is to perform centralized scanning of most of my 
machines (mix of OSes).

emulating a pi?

Ron Frazier (ALE — 2013-05-18T15:32:26

Hi all,

This may sound like an odd question, but I'm wondering if you can emulate a raspberry pi.  At the moment, I just want to learn how the software side of things works.  I don't have a need for the hardware at the moment, and buying the pi and power supply and case and memory card and usb hub and wifi dongle, etc. would probably cost me over $ 100.  I know I can run any standard programming language like python or c on my linux or windows computer, but I'm also wondering if I can do things like emulating the scratch language and emulating things like the the gpio ports and lights on the computer screen.

Any thoughts?

Sincerely,

Ron

Anyone using Filezilla client to interact with a ftps (NOT sftp) on Windows FTP server allowing FTP with SSL?

If so is there a known way to make Filezilla on a client work to import or allow temporary use of self-signed certificate on the server side?

Alternatively is there another tool that does this from a Windows client?

GaTech CS MS online

Scott Plante — 2013-05-15T17:31:42

We've discussed online computer science resources before, so I thought many of you would be interested 
in this link:

http://blog.udacity.com/2013/05/sebastian-thrun-announcing-online.html?m=1

"Today is my opportunity to give back. Ever since Peter Norvig and I launched AI Class, I have been dreaming of putting an entire computer science degree online, and to make access to the material free of charge, so that everyone can become a proficient computer scientist. With Georgia Tech and AT&T, this is my dream come true. If, as a young student, I had the chance to learn from the best professors in the world, my life might have been different. I have been fortunate. Yet so many potential learners are still denied access. Education has become much more exclusive, and getting into a top-10 computer science department, like Georgia Tech's, is still out of reach for all but a chosen few. "

LUKS/LVM2 on Fedora 18

Scott Castaline — 2013-05-14T03:01:11

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

So I recently lost a drive due to hits from my wife slamming the door
to the garage. How does that happen? Let's just say that my computer
is in the bonus room and was on a spot on the floor that turned out to
be right above the door that for some reason my wife felt she had to
slam in order for it to close. On windy days if the back windows are
open and the garage door is open this door has slammed shut so hard
that my monitor has jumped. Actually a total of 3 drives had to be
replaced. When I go the new drive I decided to run badblocks on the
rest of the drives to verify that they were okay.

Now on to the on topic part. I like to encrypt the drives at the
device level and all drives are encrypted. So after running badblocks
on the new and old working drives I did the writing of random bits to
the drives (dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sd?) My boot drive was setup as
the boot drive so using gdisk the first 2 partitions are clear (GUID
2MB Part. and 498MB /boot). The balance of the drive is encrypted. On
the LVM part I currently have 1 physical volume (PV) for each Volume
Group (VG) and each VG has at least 2 Logical Volumes (LV).

The steps I used to go from after doing the random pattern writen to
device are as follows:

1. cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/sd? (sda3 in the case of the boot drive
otherwise it was with no partition specified.)

2. cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sd? VG_name (being somewhat uncreative I
used the same for the LUKS volume as the VG name, I couldn't find
anything that said that I couldn't or shouldn't).

3. pvcreate /dev/mapper/LUKS-name (which as noted above is VG_0?

4. vgcreate VG_0? /dev/mapper/VG_0?

5. lvcreate -C y -L ?G /dev/mapper/VG_0?  (I break up total swap and
spread it over all drives so there is a swap LV on each VG)

6. lvcreate -L ???G (or -l +100%FREE when I was using the rest of the
VG for that LV) VG_0? -n (the LV name is essetially what it is being
used for ie: /root = root)

7. Formatting:
   mkswap /dev/mapper/VG_0?-swap0?
   mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/VG_0?-LVname -L same as LVname

8. mounting:
   swapon /dev/mapper/VG_0?-swap0?
   mount /dev/mapper/VG_0?-LVname /path/of/mount

9. Added the UUID (from blkid /dev/sd?) to crypttab mirroring the
previous entries for entry format for each UUID.

10.Added mounting info for each LV in the fstab using defaults for
eack LV type (data or swap)

The first drive I could not get past the disk partitioning part of
anaconda on the Fedora 18 install, so I finally gave up and redid it
with the installer. I then had 2 more drives ready so I did the above
steps to those drives, but again I could not boot, so I reinstalled
again. This time I only had to format the system LVs and not the data
LVs like home etc. And all was happier than pigs eatin' $**t. Things
remained happy until the last 2 drives were ready to be added.

I went through the same procedure as before, but this time I noticed
that it was actually hanging on the reboot after having added them
back in and restored from my backup what belonged on each LV. It would
hang after listing mounting all LVs except for one. I then rebooted
into safe mode from the DVD and commented out the one LV that hadn't
gotten mounted. All would boot fine and then I was able to manually
mount the one LV. I have not tried to uncomment it out yet and reboot
to see if it still hangs, but thinking back it seemed that it was
hanging before in the same area on the last LV to be mounted.

Previously I had noticed that it was listing that it was "Starting
Monitoring of LVM2 mirroring, snapshots etc" (I didn't get the rest).
I also didn't do anything to it the previous time when I had also
rebooted into safe mode from DVD, so I'm not sure how it booted that
time. I did notice that the last LV from the last VG did not get
mounted. That VG had 3 LVs and in both cases the swap LV did get added
to total swap and in the case of the first time the first LV on that
VG did get mounted.

So, does anyone have any ideas as to what I missed on this setup. Once
I'm up and running and all mounted, everybody seems to be happy and
having a party.

So for the long dissertation, I hope I didn't put anyone to sleep. If
I did maybe Jim K. might have some extra java (the drinkable type).

NAS enclosure recommendations?

Doug Hall — 2013-05-11T05:50:04

I want to build a NAS for a friend. I need a five-bay enclosure. It must
have a 64-bit CPU and allow me to add up to 16GB of memory. It'll be using
ZFS, which performs better with lots of memory. I'll probably need USB3,
eSata and dual ethernet ports. A low power unit would be nice.

Anyone know of and can recommend any such enclosures? The ones I'm seeing
appear to already be set up to run some proprietary system, but don't even
mention memory capacities or CPU specs. I want to use FreeNAS, of course.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Doug

Any ISPs in Sandy Springs that will survive a power outage?

Derek Atkins — 2013-05-09T14:56:24

Hey Alers,

I've got Comcast Business Class for my ISP, but I've discovered the hard
way that they don't have battery backup on their fiber plant, so if
there is a power outage I lose my service, even with a UPS on all my
CPE.  I've reported this multiple times but my tickets always get closed
because by the time the techs start looking the power is already back
up.  So I'm looking for a backup solution.

Are there any decent ISPs that you would recommend that have service in
Sandy Springs that will survive a power outage?  Note that I'm not
expecting service for days, but I am looking for it surviving an outage
of a couple hours.  Right now Comcast dies immediately, not even 60
seconds of backup time, let alone the 60+ minutes I'd expect (and
240-480 minutes I'd want).

Any suggestions?

[ANNC] ALE-NW < at > SPSU MTG. for Thurs., May 9, 7:30pm

Orlando Karam — 2013-05-08T21:53:29

The next ALE-NW< at >SPSU meeting is being held Thursday May 9th, 2013 at 7:30pm in
room J-266 of the Atrium (J) building on the SPSU campus.

===================================
The feature presentation will be by Michael Potter presenting on:

              sudo: Beginner to Expert in 1 hour

Abstract:
This presentation will begin with a quick demo for those of you who are
unfamiliar with sudo. The complete syntax of the configuration file will be
explained starting with the simplest rules to the most complex. Finishing with a
discussion recipes to solve real world problems.

I started developing this presentation after getting frustrated trying to
understand the sudo configuration file syntax. I added the real world problem
while helping people on the sudo mailing list.

sudo is a security tool that comes pre-installed on many *NIX systems, including
mac os x, and most distributions of Linux. sudo allows for fine grained control
of privileges as an alternative to setuid programs & scripts, turning on read &
write privileges on sensitive files, sharing passwords, and (gasp) giving out
the root password.

Bio:
Michael has been working in IT since 1989 when he
switched from programming automotive embedded systems.

Since that time he has been involved in projects related
to moving mainframe applications to UNIX and Linux using
open-source technologies.  Michael is the lead author of the
open source library that allows socket code originally developed on the
mainframe to be recompiled on Linux: http://code.google.com/p/ezasoket/

Recently Michael is work on various projects from Groovy/Grails to
development of iPhone/Blackberry/Android applications for business.

In 2009 Michael and his wife Lanna moved their consulting business
from Chicago to Atlanta.

This presentation will begin with a quick demo for those of you who are
unfamiliar with sudo. The complete syntax of the configuration file will be
explained starting with the simplest rules to the most complex. Finishing with a
discussion recipes to solve real world problems.

Michael started developing this presentation after getting frustrated trying to
understand the sudo configuration file syntax. He added the real world problem
while helping people on the sudo mailing list.

sudo is a security tool that comes pre-installed on many *NIX systems, including
mac os x, and most distributions of Linux. sudo allows for fine grained control
of privileges as an alternative to setuid programs & scripts, turning on read &
write privileges on sensitive files, sharing passwords, and (gasp) giving out
the root password.
