  • Setting Up A Spam-Proof Home Email Server (The Somewhat Alternate Way) (Debian Squeeze)

    debian Author: guestwriterTags: , , , , Comments: 6

    Setting Up A Spam-Proof Home Email Server (The Somewhat Alternate Way) (Debian Squeeze) Email spam is a huge problem. I have found for myself quite a simple solution, however it'll take some time to "migrate" completely over to it. The solution is to create a unique email address everytime I have to give an email address to someone else or to some website to sign up. If I want an account at twitter, I'd use "[email protected]". For webbased services, I use the full domain name incl. subdomain (www) on the left of the @ (some poorly designed websites do not recognizes the www. as valid email address, for those I just leave it away).

    amon.so: Hijacking System Calls For Hardening PHP - Debian Lenny And Squeeze amon.so is a library that integrates with the PHP interpreter and intercepts and manipulates the system calls provided by libc6. It replace the execve() syscall with a custom function which does extra sanity checking in order to prevent that an attacker could execute arbitrary code on the system exploiting a vulnerability in a web-based application (such as a bugged cms). It's open-source software released under the terms of the GPL license and compatible with PHP running as a CGI process or Apache's DSO module.

    debian Author: DebinixTags: Comments: 17

    Upgrade Debian Lenny To Squeeze In A Few Simple Steps One rather old laptop and one server were the test objects for this howto. Both systems do not have any RAID devices and use a simple partition scheme from a default basic Lenny install. If your setup deviates much from this, it's highly recommended to read all details of the Debian Release Notes before you continue. Be warned. All commands are run as root and Debian recommends to use apt-get for the Squeeze upgrade process.

  • Virtual Users With Postfix, Dovecot, MySQL, RoundCube, iRedAdmin On Debian 6.0 (Squeeze)

    debian Author: eddiechenTags: , , Comments: 2

    Virtual Users With Postfix, Dovecot, MySQL, RoundCube, iRedAdmin On Debian 6 (Squeeze) This document describes how to install a Postfix and Dovecot mail server that is based on virtual users and domains, i.e. users and domains that are in a MySQL database. If you prefer to install such a mail server step by step, you can refer to the ISPmail tutorials at workaround.org. Also the Big Picture would help you to easily understand the mail server structure. I believe you at least need one day to have a working mail server that way. If you use the iRedMail script, you only need one minute to get the mail server up and running, and you will have more features (compared to the ISPmail tutorials).
