Network

• Added to /etc/hosts: 172.19.100.1 gryphon
• Added domain prefix for home and nxp to /etc/resolv.conf: search be-leu01.nxp.com wbi.nxp.com diamond.nxp.com hell
• Proxy configuration - network nxp:
  • sshproxy → connect to NXP proxy with sshtunnel (with NTLM auth. if needed); forward IMAP/SMTP ports; opens a SOCKS5 proxy
  • privoxy → forward to ssh SOCKS5 proxy. provide http proxy server.
  • apt-get, wget, browsers... → through privoxy (env. set in /etc/bash.bashrc, /etc/profile, /etc/environment)
  • ftp → direct connection (no solution...)
• Proxy configuration - network home:
  • sshproxy → direct connection; forward IMAP/SMTP ports; opens a SOCKS5 proxy (useless).
  • privoxy → direct connection. provide http proxy server.
  • apt-get, wget, browsers... → through privoxy (env. set in /etc/bash.bashrc, /etc/profile, /etc/environment)
  • ftp → direct connection

• User beq06659 (shell /bin/bash), group beq06659, admin, lpadmin, samba (for sudo, CUPS, samba RW).
  • Recovered files: ~/.bashrc || ~/.basshrc || ~/.dircolors.cfg || ~/.inputrc || ~/.vimrc || ~/bin/
• Group samba (gid 124)

LAMP

sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 mysql-server mysql-client php5-mysql
# ... Defined password for MySQL root user
sudo vi /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
# ... Added lines:
#     #MIP CUSTOM
#     ServerName "andlinux"
# ... Restart apache server to activate php module...
sudo /etc/init.d/apache restart

# Move www root dir to /data disk
sudo mv /var/www /data
sudo ln -s /f /data/www /var/www

• Apache configuration file is at /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
• By default, Apache root http directory is /var/www

To restore a MediaWiki backup (see also [2] for DB creation, and [3] for MySQL restore command):

mysql --user=root -p mysql
mysql> CREATE DATABASE mikiwiki;
mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mikiwiki.* TO miki@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '********';
mysql> quit

#Restore the wiki files
sudo mkdir /var/www/miki
cd /var/www/miki
sudo tar --strip 1 -xvzf ~/backup/wiki-20091111-www.noekeon.org_miki.daily.tar.gz
sudo chown -R www-data /var/www/miki
sudo chgrp -R www-data /var/www/miki
#Edit /var/www/miki/LocalSettings.php to match current config
sudo vi /var/www/miki/LocalSettings.php
# ... $wgDBserver="localhost"

# Restore the SQL backup (! note that mikiwiki is not the password, but the db name !!!):
gunzip < wiki-20091111-www.noekeon.org_miki.daily.sql.gz | mysql -u miki -p mikiwiki
# ... enter password for user miki

SSH

• Installed SSH-Tunnel
• Files recovered from other installation (ssh-tunnel v2.26 + patch):

  • sudo cp .../ssh-tunnel.pl /usr/local/bin
    

  • sudo cp .../ssh.pl /usr/local/bin
    

  • sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin
    

• User beq06659 - configuration file in directory ~/.ssh:
  • id_rsa || id_rsa.pub || authorized_keys || config || config-home || config-nxp || config-home
  • clbanner.txt || proxy.conf (for ssh-tunnel)

Windows Host Settings

• See Windows configuration file here
• host file entry for hostname andlinux (in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts):

192.168.11.150  andlinux

• Network - TAP interface
  • Name: TAP-Colinux (must be sync'ed with name defined in settings.txt)
  • IP Address: 192.168.11.1
  • Mask: 255.255.255.0
  • DNS: none specified

To Do

• Interesting packages:
  • MIME decoding: mime-codecs (from dapper universe), mimedecode
• Proxy settings
  • Use cntlm to enable FTP through SSH SOCKS5 proxy when behind a corporate proxy.
• Pending: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 192.168.0.40 for ServerName (during Apache install)
