Re: Package to block random SSH login attempts?

You can also propose to everyone who want to verify the integrity of its system to check that himself. A script like chkrootkit which search for the signature of a past ssh (or other) attack. A simple reference in the doc of ssh could alarm lots of people. cron ta run it periodically, and don't bot

Hi! Finally, I could change the default umask. The winner is Cameron Hutchinson and the libpam-umask package. :-) I downloaded, and compiled it for my Woody machine (it is only available in Sagre and up), and it works as I expected. Many thanks for all your comments! Alex Merry Christmas for ever

install probs

I did a testing net install a few days ago. The system is 2.4.27 kernel, P4, 1G RAM, SCSI2 disk, IDE disk, SATA disk, RME soundcard, intel i810 video. No probs with SCSI or parallel IDE, but the SATA disk doesn't seem to exist after boot (off the SCSI disk). The BIOS sees it, and the DeMudi system
