IPCop 1.4.19 / 1.4.20 released

Update is splitted in two part because of a kernel update to accomodate free space limitation.
1.4.19 contain some packages updates, most notabily a dnsmasq update to be immune on recent dns advisory.
1.4.20 install the second part of the kernel update and configure the new kernel.
1.4.19 could be installed separately from 1.4.20. A reboot is not needed after 1.4.19 installation.

Concerning the dns issue, see more details in

http://www.heise-online.co.uk/news/DNS-security-problem-details-released–/111145

It is very likely anyone need to a patch without waiting and our is in 1.4.19 for
dnsmasq.
The dns server you use need to be patched too or you may switch to opendns.

You need to reboot to use the new kernel after 1.4.20 installation.

Wireless activity LED in Thinkpad T61

Hmm starting from Gutsy my Wifi LED wont works … now after i read from the ThinkWiki .. what i read from it was The LED is not implemented at least in the IWL4965 driver. How ever, As an alternative, you can install a backported IWL4965 driver that may fix the LED problem on your system.

To active WiFi LED,

sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-hardy

Now, my Wifi LED lighted beside the bluetooth icon !!! yeay !!!

Nagios2 in Hardy

Don’t know what to do today so i decide to try out the nagios2 in hardy, so what should i do is :-

$ sudo apt-get install nagios2 nagios-plugins-basic nagios-plugins-standard nagios-plugins nagios-plugins-extra nagios-snmp-plugins nagios-images

wait until all the installation done, your nagios2 can be view by http://localhost/nagios2/ but u may find that u can’t login because u have set the username n password. So lets solve it by doing

$ sudo htpasswd -c /etc/nagios2/htpasswd.users nagiosadmin

its because the auth file need to be create since the nagios configuration file stated in /etc/apache2/conf.d/nagios2.conf

So hope u guys may tried it since its quite a good tools for monitoring the networks .. Good Luck & hepi playing with the nagios.cfg !!
