Mypaint-0.5.0 .spec

Posted 01-05-2011 at 07:41 AM by unSpawn

Mypaint is a open-source graphics application for use with a tablet. It kind of looks like Fractal Design Painter must have looked at alpha 0.1 stage. Nonetheless worth a try building a package. Here's a spec built, tested and installed on Centos 5.5 Intel. Note it doesn't build for x86_64 as I have none:

Code:

%define debug_packages  %{nil}
%define debug_package %{nil}
%define name mypaint
%define ver 0.5.0
%define rel 1
Name: %{name}
Summary:

Rootkit Hunter 1.3.8 release imminent...

It time again for another release. But before we can I need you to test it in the coming two weeks. Please spare us a few minutes if you care. After testing please reply so we get an idea of how many people tested this release.

Here is a short checklist:
1) Does RKH install correctly?
2) Does 'rkhunter -C' show rkhunter.conf is OK? (Re-run after making changes.)
3) Does '--update' work?
4) Does '--versioncheck' work?
5) Does '--propupd' pick up...

Rsyslog-4.6.3 .spec

Posted 07-28-2010 at 11:59 PM by unSpawn

Tags rpm, rsyslog, spec file

Rsyslog is a Syslog replacement. Centos5U5 provides rsyslog-3.22.1-3.el5.i386 but the development branch is at 5.5.6 and the stable release is 4.6.3. Here's a .spec file that will build 4.6.3-1 (this wasn't derived from the 3.22.1 .src.rpm .spec so YMMV(VM) as usual):

Code:

%define debug_packages	%{nil}
%define debug_package %{nil}
%define name rsyslog
%define ver 4.6.3
%define rel 1

Name: %{name}
Summary: Enhanced system logging

Denyhosts vs Fail2ban aka tcp_wrappers vs iptables

Posted 07-22-2010 at 03:58 AM by unSpawn

Tags fail2ban, hosts.allow, hosts.deny, iptables

At times denyhosts is being recommended over fail2ban. The common misconception being these applications are equal. They're not, OK in more than one way, but focusing on method of filtering denyhosts uses tcp_wrappers by default where Fail2ban uses iptables by default.

Using tcp_wrappers means a packet has to be delivered to that service. The serving application is responsible for reading /etc/hosts.{deny,allow} to determine itself if a connection is allowed or not. Requiring a network...
