I'm experimenting (see previous message) with an ALIX 2C3 board. The board is based on an AMD Geode LX 800 CPU which features both hw chipher (128 bit AES CBC/ECB) and Random Number Generator. After installing devil-linux on it, I'm wondering how to take advantage of this hardware features. I'm mainly interested in ssl-based applications (ssh and openvpn), so if I could get openssl to load the required libraries (?) on startup it would be enough. Reading around I understand that to achieve this I need: 1) a kernel driver for the hardware 2) an openssl engine which uses the driver 3) a patch to openssl which loads the engine at lib startup Now, point 1 is solved by geode_aes module, point 3 doesn't seem to be hard to solve (I guess it shouldn't be much different from the "padlock" engine patch), while point 2 seems critical (or it looks critical to me, at least). I've not been able to find any reference to a specific "geode" engine (like the padlock one). The only solution I've found seems to be going through the ocf-linux framework. I don't like this solution very much: 1) I don't like patching the kernel 2) I don't like adding a whole (and second) cryptographic framework just to get an openssl engine 3) latest ocf-linux patches are targeted to 2.6.23 kernel Is this the only available solution to have openssl support the geode crypto subsystem? Any comment would be welcomed. Ciao Marcello Desantis Storming Sas |

I just got a PC Engines' ALIX 2C3 board and I'm doing some tests using the development version of devil-linux. The installation on Compact Flash is straightforward, but a couple of changes are needed to let you login into the system from serial console. Basically you have to spawn a getty process on the serial port (inittab) and add the serial console to the pool of ttys that root is allowed to login from (securetty). In doing this, I encountered a little BUG in install-on-usb script. If, when requested, you specify a configuration file to preload to disk, it gets copied as 'etc.tar.bz2' and not as 'etc-mods.tar.bz2" as it should. A more detailed description of the installation steps: 1) Create a modified copy of etc/inittab (from iso image) adding the line: S0:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty -L 38400 ttyS0 vt102 Without this you don't get a login prompt. You can also comment all of the lines referring to any ttyX, they are useless without VGA's virtual consoles. 2) Create a modified copy of etc/securetty (from iso image) adding the line ttyS0 Without this you cannot login as root from serial console. 3) Create a modified copy of 'config/etc-mods.tar.bz2' (from iso image) archive including files created at points 1 and 2 4) Connect CF to a PC *WITHOUT* mounting it 5) Partition CF with 2 partitions. One for ISO and one for configuration 6) Install CF using install-on-usb script, choosing "GRUB with serial console" and setting 38400 speed (which is the default serial port speed of the ALIX BIOS) 7) Mount the "configuration" partition created at point 2 and copy the modified etc-mods.tar.bz2 to it 8) Unmount the partition 9) Remove the CF card and insert it in the ALIX board 10) Connect a serial terminal emulator (picocom, minicom, gtkterm) to the ALIX board and power on Note that instead of going through steps 7-8, you should specify your custom cfg file when requested by install-on-usb script. I'm not doing so due to the bug reported above. I guess it will be fixed soon. Hope it helps. Marcello Desantis Storming Sas |

I'm current running an upgrade on my build-machine/workstation to Ubuntu 8.04LTS. That will take some time, then it will be awhile to make sure everything else works. Even if it goes smoothly, I doubt there will be much time left to work on DL today. - BS > Hey, > > the remote boot of my build machine doesn't work, so I can't work on > the update package. > Does any other developer have time to look at the bind update? > > Thanks > Heiko > > Quoting Martin Hotze <ma...@ho...>: > > > Hi, > > > > I just want to bring the recent DNS vulnerability to your attention, > > mabye this needs a quick fix and release of DL (and be sure to check > > your other systems, too): > > > > http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/800113 > > > > http://securosis.com/2008/07/08/dan-kaminsky-discovers-fundamental-iss > > ue-in-dns-massive-multivendor-patch-released/ > > > > DNS checker (on the right menue): http://www.doxpara.com/ > > > > BIND: http://www.isc.org/index.pl?/sw/bind/index.php > > > > > > greetings, martin > |

Heiko, Again my inexperience with linux kicks in... where would I find logs for pam errors? I checked /var/log/ but there was nothing there for pam. I did some google searches but didn't make any headway. The exact error string I get when I enter my password for sudo is "sudo: pam_acct_mgmt: 7". Something odd. I just downloaded an ISO (precompiled iso of 1.2.14) and mounted it with VMware. When I logged in and tried to add a user I get the exact same problem as I listed at the start of this article. Perhaps I'm performing the useradd incorrectly? Here is exactly what I type to duplicate this: -Log in with root -useradd kyle -passwd kyle Test1234 (twice, password takes and all is well) -nano /etc/sudoers and add kyle to user privilege spec -Log out, then log in with kyle/Test1234 -sudo cat /etc/shadow It's here I enter my password (Test1234) and get the pam_acct_mgmt: 7 error. If there is any more research I can do to help figure this out on my own let me know. Otherwise can you check it out and see if you can duplicate the error and/or see what I'm doing wrong? Thanks!

I'm assuming it's a hardware issue since it didn't sound that you did any changes to the software configuration. The problem could also be your modem or maybe simply the cable, who knows. Try the 'cheap' basics first. But also try to think back if you did any configuration changes or software upgrades before it started happening. -- Regards Heiko Zuerker http://www.devil-linux.org ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. |

Heiko, Thanks for the reply. I am using Stable DL 1.2.13 and Shorewall 3.2.7. I verified this by using the "shorewall version" command and "cat /DEVIL-LINUX". I have START_ADSL=yes in the /etc/sysconfig/config file. As far as I can tell, the green lights on the ADSL modem do not flicker abnormally of go out. The line bounce at 479.9 to 480.0 minutes is so dependable that I have made it a point to be watching when this happens. I do have a spare NIC - just in case - which I can swap in. I haven't done that yet because I hadn't thought a hardware problem would produce this type of symptom. Since your reply tends to rule out a software issue, I will swap the cards and see what happens. Thanks again. --- Les Heiko Zuerker wrote: > Hey, > > I'm not aware of anything in DL which could cause this issue. > Does the ethernet connection itself go down? > Can you swap the network card to see if it's a simple hardware issue? > Which version of DL are you using? > > Heiko > > > Quoting Leslie Hazelton <les...@wo...>: > > >> I am currently using DL-1.2.13, shorewall and PPP-OE on my firewall. >> >> In the past I would see 10 to 15 days or more without a connection drop. >> A few months age I started to see a problem where the connection would >> drop for a few seconds and then re-connect every eight (8) hours. >> >> I created a shell script to extract data from the system messages file >> and calculate the connect time.

Hey, Quoting drew einhorn <dre...@gm...>: > Hi, > > I'd like to run Devil Linux in a VM on a server without hardware virtualization support. > > Is there an appropriate xen kernel somewhere, or do I have to figure out the voodoo to build my own? We currently don't include the the xen kernel patch. BUT: - We do support VMWare and have all the needed drivers included. - As another option you can give the 1.3 version of Devil-Linux a try, since the 2.6 Kernel series now has built in for some virtualization platforms (not sure if XEN is really included). 1.3 is our development version, but it's already stable (many people are already using it). -- Regards Heiko Zuerker http://www.devil-linux.org ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. |

I would say yes. Some systems (older ones mostly) don't like DMA mode or it's just not supported right by the driver. PIO is usually working, it's just significantly slower. -- Regards Heiko Zuerker http://www.devil-linux.org ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. |

Hey, I'm not aware of anything in DL which could cause this issue. Does the ethernet connection itself go down? Can you swap the network card to see if it's a simple hardware issue?

Hi, I'd like to run Devil Linux in a VM on a server without hardware virtualization support. Is there an appropriate xen kernel somewhere, or do I have to figure out the voodoo to build my own? -- Drew Einhorn |

Hmmm, might say bingo.. It flashed by when I searched for NSA CF and linux that NSA only supported PIO. A bit more searching on that gave me ide=nodma for boot option (http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/dma-error-on-tran scend-cf-cards-584070/) So I thought better to try and burn than ... Actually since I added it to grub.conf I have not had a single failure. Does this make scense to anyone that knows these CF things better than me, can I trust the system now?

I am currently using DL-1.2.13, shorewall and PPP-OE on my firewall. In the past I would see 10 to 15 days or more without a connection drop. A few months age I started to see a problem where the connection would drop for a few seconds and then re-connect every eight (8) hours. I created a shell script to extract data from the system messages file and calculate the connect time. The result shows that the connect times are consistently 480.0 or 479.9 minutes each time. When I contact my ISP (AT&T DSL) they swear they have nothing to do with the problem and it must be a problem in my firewall/router. I don't believe them, but I must check. I have searched the list archives and my local configuration. I see no reports in the mailing-list and have found nothing in the configuration that should cause this problem. Is there anything in DL or the PPP configuration that could cause this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ---- Les |

Well the thread went a little bit off-topic. ;-) Read the section below, it seems like save-config is having trouble when you use CF cards only (2 partitions).

I have been using the new build and everything compiles and the ISO is made successfully. I have found one problem though... When trying to use sudo I receive a PAM error. Here is what I do to produce the error: -Make a new user (bob) -Log in as bob and try to do "sudo <whatever>" (I used sudo ifconfig) -Enter my password for bob I get an error that reads: "sudo: pam_acct_mgmt: 7" Any thoughts on what might be the matter (or what I may have done wrong in my build) to get this? If you can't reproduce it with a fresh build let me know and I'll send you my ISO link. Perhaps I built something incorrectly?
