<0> howdy, whats the best way to m***deploy slackware (say 80 workstations that are pretty much identical) .. I was an automated solution (along the vein of kickstart and fai, except I just want to dd whole image)
<1> when you're here about that kind of serious thing you better stay here for more than a few minutes..
<2> http://www.metacafe.com/watch/25089/video/
<3> doesnt slackware ship with root CA certs in openssl?
<4> is there a dvd link for slackware which i can download ?
<5> dvd is unofficial i believe
<6> morning
<7> So, anyone know how to patch the local race vulnerability yet?
<2> yeah, 2.6.17.5
<2> covers both of the recent ones
<2> ohh .6 is out
<2> looks like they went overboard with the vuln fix haha
<7> really?
<7> :D:D
<2> http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.17.6
<7> yeah read it earlier
<8> ?
<2> .4 fixed the prctl privesc and .5 covered the proc race.. then they back-coded in .6 because they ****ed something up in the fix i guess
<2> felix: ???
<8> what was the exploit that involved /proc?
<2> oh..
<2> code is up
<2> looks like /proc/self/environ = PAGE_SIZE and they fill it with junk in some manner
<2> http://downloads.securityfocus.com/vulnerabilities/exploits/h00ly****.c
<8> heh
<2> it was posted on friday, to FD
<8> oh WOW
<8> that's just dumb
<8> that the kernel coders would ever let /proc/self/environ be executable
<8> let alone SUID
<2> there isn't much oversight when it comes to the kernel
<2> if they are unsure, turn X off when possible, but include EVERYTHING
<8> oh wow
<8> seems i thought about this a long time ago
<8> i already have /proc mounted noexec
<2> http://metasploit.com/research/misc/mwsearch/
<2> ahahaha
<2> that is awesome
<2> hmmm, we could actually use that here
<2> update via google and tie it in to a blacklist
<2> then again, seems like a wasted effort
<2> wow... I didn't even know you could google based on timestamps
<9> hello.
<10> hello
<9> do you have slack 10.2 ?
<10> Yes
<9> good
<10> Indeed.
<9> can you help me with small problem
<10> perhaps.
<9> thanks. i`ve nvidia agp card
<10> ok.
<9> but i got too large dialog boxes , is that from my card driver
<10> Which card driver are you using?
<9> or from the kde config .. ?
<9> nvidia
<10> Although, I dont use Slackware on my desktop, so I cant really help you with X related problems.
<9> oh its ok
<10> What resolution are you running?
<9> 1024x7..
<10> ok.
<10> try ctrl+alt - and +
<10> to change resulution and see if that helps.
<9> still no change . tried before
<9> you got slack with laptop ?
<10> no, I only use Slackware on my servers. Sorry.
<9> yeah i`ve http ftp server running.
<9> perfect with slackware :)
<10> =)
<11> slaker: How did you configure X?
<9> with control panel
<11> Some sort of KDE wizard thingie?
<9> you mean the X server ?
<11> slaker: yes, the server.
<9> yeah. with xorg config file
<11> But _how_? Did you manually edit it? Some tool?
<9> also with nvidia driver . still no change .
<9> yes. manually , still getting huge boxes you know.
<10> Is it only the dialog boxes
<11> Why manually? Have you tried the automagic way?
<10> or is it the resolution that's screwed up?
<11> What size is your monitor?
<9> 17 LC
<9> do you think thats from the monitor ..?
<11> And you were running 1024x768. Which probably means that you need/want a higher resolution.
<11> Have you tried the configuration utility built into X?
<9> yeah sure 1240x..
<9> yes. some time i cant see any thing black screen. i get it back from telnet.
<11> 1240? you mean 1280x1024?
<9> and some times not really good resu
<9> yes
<9> i dont know where is the problem it come from . vga or monitor or driver
<9> whats your vga card ?
<11> Some Intel piece of crap.
<7> rotten_: laptop?
<11> gamkiller: Nope, not right now.
<9> yeah thats what linux support ,
<10> rotten_: Do you see the nVidia splashscreen when you start X ?
<11> Guys, I'm not the one with a problem. ;-)
<10> sorry, slaker
<9> me lol
<10> slaker: Do you see the nvidia splashscreen when you start X ?
<9> yes i got the white splashscreen
<10> ok.
<9> with nvidia logo.
<10> nod.
<9> if i want to try other vga card. ati is that good one ?
<9> or all the same ?
<10> no, they're not the same =)
<10> but changing gfx cards wont really help you with your problem tho =)
<9> good,
<9> yeah . i know
<9> slackware they didn`t release any version for long time.
<9> may be that from the xorg 6.8 !
<10> nah.
<9> i tried old slackware with m700 compaq laptop , really good one.
<12> wtf?
<12> 1. run your monitor at the native resolution 2. configure your window manager
<12> the display card has nothing to do with the "size" of your dialog boxes
<9> ok
<9> should be some where in control panel with kde ?
<12> and for the record, there is nothing wrong with Intel video chipsets, other than gaming performance
<9> alright .
<9> thank you guys for this ;}
<9> see you later babye
<12> some people shouldn't be allowed to touch technology
<10> heh.
<10> bahh.. slow day..
<13> hello
<13> I am having problems setting up a mailserver on my slackware box
<13> I thought I had it working until i tried to use outlook to send and recieve and get a socket error
<13> i have googled the world over for a solution
<13> and no luck
<13> can someone help?
<12> a socket error?
<12> did outlook or your MTA give the error?
<12> what MTA are you using?
<13> outlook did
<12> it could also be your ISP blocking port 25
<13> k
<13> ok so how can i tell if my mail server is running properly?
<13> from the linux command line.
<14> check to see if it is evening running or listening on an interface
<12> I don't think he has the brains to run a mail server
<14> email ports are 25/110 i believe
<14> netstat tuln | less
<12> 110 is pop3
<12> 25 is smtp
<14> what's imap port?
<14> 125?
