I created a user group called ssh_allow which is put in the conf file for sshd. This means only members of this individual group is allowed to ssh in to the pc. This can provide a bit more control for the paranoid with multiple users on their box. This and the deny root login I think is sufficient for my setup.

Generally speaking ssh is fairly secure but there have been exploits found in it in the past. As long as you keep things up2date you should be OK. You can as others will suggest move the port ssh runs on to a non-standard port which means that the scripts that run everyday looking for weak passwds and known exploits will not know where to look. You can also disable root logins via ssh among other things, depending on your level of paranoia.

Here is an alternative to PCI. I recommend using a wired ethernet to WIFI bridge. They are relatively cheap, do not require any of your CPU, and work out of the box. I bought a WRT54G, the wireless swiss-army-knife, for about $50 US. It plugs into the ethernet jack that all modern systems include. I then uploaded the latest GPL Sveasoft firmware to the WRT54G. With the new firmware, I put the WRT54G in client mode. From now on, no matter what operating system I use, it just works. There are NO drivers to worry about. ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Sun, 14 Nov 2004 02:33:03 -0600 From: Mike Klinke <lsomike@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: FC3 upgrade - X is hosed :( (LONG) To: For users of Fedora Core releases <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Message-ID: <200411140233.04253.lsomike@xxxxxxxxxx> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" On Saturday 13 November 2004 22:42, Jim Cornette wrote: > > Sorry Mike for replying to your post and referencing your prior > findings.

It will have a section called "patch" for just that purpose. You really need to get the Redhat press book on RPM.

I've looked through /usr/share/applications/kde and /usr/share/applnk and whatever else I could think of but, for the life of me, I can't figure out how menus work in KDE. It is not obvious to me how KDE figures out what to add to the menu and how to arrange it.

After some research I came to the conclusion that it does not work with the Fedora 3 kernel. During the linking stage of vmmon.o two symbols are missing __copy_from_user_ll and __copy_to_user. As I am not too familiar with the kbuild system I don't know exactly where they come from, as they don't show up in the vmmmon-src. linux/hostif.c is just using the plain functions copy_from_user() and copy_to_user(). (I changed both functions to their direct_.. counterparts, getting the same linker errors) After downloading, extracting and preparing the fedora-kernel srpm I found that (one of) the 4G/4G patches is removing the EXPORT_SYMBOL(copy_from_user). Is this the cause for the errors? Is there a way to make vmmon.o link without errors? thanks for your help Oliver ------------------------------ Message: 15 Date: Sun, 14 Nov 2004 10:56:52 +0100 From: Andrea Cerisara <andreacerisara@xxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: src.rpm with source patches To: Fedora list <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Message-ID: <1100426212.3372.0.camel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Content-Type: text/plain Il giorno sab, 13-11-2004 alle 23:54 -0800, alan ha scritto: > On Sun, 14 Nov 2004, Andrea Cerisara wrote: > > > Is it possible to apply patches to sources contained in a src.rpm > > package?

Ok, so if you place it on a non-standard port, disable the root login, etc. it is possible. Is it also possible to allow ssh traffic from for instance a few ip addresses?
