For those of you having problems uploading

[bacon665]

you are most likely using inetd or xinetd

The modifications listed here are for you to use at YOUR OWN RISK! they have been tested to acheive their goal but their security has not this may infact leave your set up vulnerable.

im not going to explain what this is...you can google or even wikipedia it yourself.
but heres the fix

the files we are going to be working with are as follows
/etc/inetd.conf
/etc/xinetd.conf (also uses PAM {can also google that yourself})
/etc/xinetd.d/
and for PAM we will also be using
etc/hosts.deny
etc/hosts.allow

warning-leave everything in the config alone and only add the following lines (after you replace the < > with their values) otherwise your internet for all general purposes will go BOOM!

For inetd

Code: Select all

#wine   stream  tcp     nowait  <user>    <path to wine>
#winmx      stream  tcp     nowait.400      <user> <path to winmx.exe>


for xinetd

Code: Select all

service wine
{
      socket_type         = stream
      wait                = no
      nice                = 10
      user                = <user>
      server              = <patch to wine>
      rlimit_as           = 8M
      rlimit_cpu          = 20
}


and

Code: Select all

service winmx
{
      socket_type         = stream
      wait                = no.400
      nice                = 10
      user                = <user>
      server              = <path to winmx>
      rlimit_as           = 8M
      rlimit_cpu          = 20
}


For PAM
This is an extreme security risk (extreme for linux is clicking activex controls in IE)
and thus is not recomended for servers

in /etc/hosts.allow

Code: Select all

ALL:ALL


and in /etc/hosts.deny

Code: Select all

i suggest you add the blocklist your ISP and anyone else you dont trust

Care to correct this statement? It makes no sense as is.

EDIT:

Code: Select all

I suggest you add the blocklist, your ISP and anyone else you dont trust


A well placed comma may fix it... just a guess.
