Remote access
by KC8LDO
Is there a way to use ssh to get through a firewall for remote access to a
system? The situation I'm looking at is a Fedora system sitting behind a
company firewall, which I have no control over, that I wish to gain access
to by logging into it over the Internet from a remote computer. In other
words the connection is initiated from outside of the firewalled company
network.
What I'm thinking is using ssh to forward a port, 3389, to another computer
on my own private network (also behind a firewall and NAT router) at home
acting as a middle man. Then from another computer, lets say at a hotel,
logging in to the same computer on my private home network and have it pass
traffic bidirectionaly between the two end point computers.
Is this something than can be done using ssh and if so how? I would also
like to have the remote Fedora system connection to the middle man computer
remain even if the remote computer is not connected.

Leland C. Scott

Iphone failure to charge on FC14
by Tony Foster
Just recently when I connect my Iphone to my linux box to charge
I get a message on the Iphone
"Charging is not supported with this accessory"
I have connected both my Iphone and my wife's to various usb ports on
the off chance one of the port has a bad connector.
I have connected thumb drives and a USB portable hard drive to the unit
and both work fine. So probably not the basic hardware.
I have tried a cold boot on the Linux box.
I connect the Iphones to my microsloth laptop and they work fine.
I tried to reboot the Iphone and connecting it again and get the same
message.
This looks like a bug in the USB power negotiation process when
attaching an Iphone.
Anyone seen this before?
Currently running FC14 with all latest revisions.
kernal 2.6.35.14-96 fc14x86_64

Remote Access
by Bill Perry
Some time ago I was the on call admin for a critical system at a certain
large company. I wanted to fix problems from home. I checked with three
different guys in the computer security department before implementing
anything. I wouldn't want to do someting that would get me fired or
charged with a crime.
The computer security guys were somewhat arrogant, they basically said
if you can figure out a way around our firewalls, go ahead, but we won't
create a hole for you.
A couple of days later I had the remote access going and I showed them
how it worked. They were amazed, but just shrugged and said "cool!, Can
I have a copy of that script?"
Again - check around, don't do something that would get you in trouble.
In this economic climate don't take a chance and lose your job!
These days, I'm working for a small company and I make the policies, so
I'm ok.
notes:
office computer setup
create script on your office computer to check home website for special
file (trigger file)
if not exists
sleep 5 minutes
if exists
ssh to home computer. ssh command uses options to open a reverse
tunnel on a special port
home computer setup
copy the public key from the office computer to .ssh/authorized-keys
activate
from home
create special file
start trying to access the special port. You can open multiple windows
on that port. One window may have to run a "keep alive" program.

The above worked once and stopped again. What is the real secret for
getting this to work?

True, and that is usually the best option. The drawback being that you are putting yourself at mercy of the firewall admin, who might be lazy, incompetent, or ignorant (which is sometimes the case), or have a boss that is one of those things (which is the case quite often).
However, every serious firewall admin should know that the firewall is a one-way barrier, protecting local users from the outside attack, and having in principle no way to protect the outside world from the local user. Or in the words of the firewall-piercing HOWTO ( http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Firewall-Piercing ):
<quote>
A firewall cannot protect a network against its own internal users, and should not even try to.
</quote>
So, if the OP asks his admin to allow him the access, and is refused, I think it is perfectly legitimate to DIY and pierce a connection through.
Best, :-)

Hi some remarks to make...
Firstly, if you have a good defined and well maitained firewall, it's hard to get _IN_.
One way of dealing with the problem, is installing at work (if you can) an openvpn connection towards home.
Even if the company firewall very strict, they will stil allow port 80/443 going out.
On those ports, you can do an openvpn-proxy. Examples on the openvpn site.
OTOH. If you ask and were declined, or don't ask and they find out later, this is for most companies enough reason fon instantly been throwed out.
And perhaps get a law suit against you.
So i would _strongly_ suggest asking your sysadmin / networkadmin / securityadmin to open-up a port for allowing incoming VPN's.
If it is for doing work from home location, they probably don't object.
Better safe then sorry (and fired)
Hans

Fedora 15 +scsi
by Bill Perry
I had an older box which I was using as the site backup machine. A
friend gave me a HP DAT72 drive and I got it up and working on the
Fedora 11 OS. I did backups and tested everything. The tape drive was
accessed as /dev/st4. This box ran Samba and users copied their files to
the this machine. I did backups using:
tar cvf /dev/st4 /home/<user> /home/<user>
Then I decided to upgrade. I swapped out the motherboard and got a 64
bit cpu and upgraded the OS (complete new install). I now have Fedora 15
running on the box.
The tape drive has been visible as /dev/st4 occasionally. And when it is
I have used it to make a small backup and test the restore. But the
/dev/st4 is not always visible and the file /dev/st4 usually disappears
upon reboot. I don't know what I did to make it appear (if anything).
It almost looks like the device changed from /dev/st4 to /dev/st0. Is
that possible?

Booting a live ISO without mounting the hard drive ?
by linux guy
I'm on the road, in the middle of nowhere.
I've got a hard drive issue.
I'd like to run the f15 Live ISO from a USB drive. No problem there.
I DO NOT want it to mount the hard drive. i'd like it unmounted so
that I can perform disk tests and stuff on it.
I know about rescue disks. I don't have enough bandwidth to download one.
How do i run a Live ISO so that it doesn't mount the hard drive ?
Thanks
