Securing Majordomo PDF Print E-mail
Sunday, 14 October 2007

Did you know that buy default majordomo will give a list of all the addresses on your mailing list to anyone?

I have written a script that will tidy up majordomo config files as follows...
  • Only shows lists you are subscribed to with the 'lists' command
  • Does not allow anyone to use the 'who' command to get addresses
  • Doesn't allow anyone to use the 'which' command to get addresses

Checking for Rootkits PDF Print E-mail
Monday, 21 August 2006

In the same vein my last post, here is page on installing chkrootkit and Rootkit Hunter on CentOS / BlueQuartz. 

A root kit is the name given to a piece of software written to try and elevate someones permissions to root level, commonly used by hackers/crackers/script kiddies to infect a system. There are many rootkit checkers however we are going to install two of the most common which are both are free and open source.  Some people prefer one over the other, I say, why not use both!
