Report: Vista more secure than OS X and Linux

Report: Vista more secure than OS X and Linux -

Filed under: , ,


Attention Linux, Vista, and Apple fan boys: put on your gloves... it's time to rumble! A 6-month vulnerability report issued by Jeff "Security Guy" Jones has caught the eye of Redmond and the ire of places beyond. The report which bases its security assessment upon vulnerabilities found (not actually exploited) claims that Vista is "more secure than OS X and Linux." In fact, the much maligned XP even crushes the competition using their calculations. Of course, it's worth noting that Jeff is a member of Microsoft's Security business unit which will probably sway your opinion as to the integrity of the data. Still, as incomplete as the assessment may be, it certainly appears to be a good showing for Vista considering the vast community of hackers attempting to thwart its security. Of course you know what Billy G's probably saying right about now? Dy-no-mite JJ!

Installing Drupal Part I

The Drupal setup portion was pretty easy, I just had to create a database and provide the database login credentials to the Drupal install page. This page is the default page of where you put the install. After this, I was able to post and do all sorts of things. I did hit a hitch though, when I started playing around with the Drupal "Administer/Site configuration Clean URLs/Clean URL's". At first it wasn't enabled, and of course for Search Engine Optimization I wanted them to work. I knew this could only be done by a .htaccess file, but where was it? Well, after further searching on Google I find this little article: http://drupal.org/node/15365 Where it tells you what needs to be in the missing .htaccess file, however the information they provided was: RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] Which then gave me an Internal 500 server error, and I kinda new what was going on. But I was being kinda lazy about it. I checked the apache2 log: [Thu Jun 14 13:17:58 2007] [alert] [client 64.180.78.228] /home/geektank/public_html/.htaccess: <Directory not allowed here, referer: http://geektank.net/?q=admin/settings/clean-urls You will need to remove the "<Directory" portions to make it work as .htaccess files can't have this information, otherwise they will get this error. Duh, I mean it even said on the the Drupal page about the information they provided: If you don't use the .htaccess that comes with Drupal you'll need to add some rewrite rules into your apache directory directive. Consult the .htaccess file in Drupal for examples of rules. I was still getting a 500 Internal Server Error, and I saw this in the apache2 error log: [Thu Jun 14 13:18:22 2007] [alert] [client 64.180.78.228] /home/geektank/public_html/.htaccess: Invalid command 'RewriteEngine', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration, referer: http://geektank.net/?q=admin/settings/clean-urls LOL, I didn't enable mod_rewrite in apache2. Mind you this is a new install of Debian Etch, so I just did a2enmod rewrite and viola, nice clean links! Now I just need to get the formatting down for Drupal. I'm use to MediaWiki, which powns.

samhain 2.3.5 (Default branch)

samhain 2.3.5 (Default branch) - samhain is a daemon that can check file integrity, search the file tree for SUID files, and detect kernel module rootkits (Linux only). It can be used either standalone or as a client/server system for centralized monitoring, with strong (192-bit AES) encryption for client/server connections and the option to store databases and configuration files on the server. For tamper resistance, it supports signed database/configuration files and signed reports/audit logs. It has been tested on Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, and Unixware.

Changes:
This release fixes some minor bugs. The portcheck module tears down connections for some common protocols more gracefully.
