    The perfect linux server

    in Hacks & Mods

    Posted

    Yeah I ended up doing the same thing with the torrent links, no big loss.

    Hey when you setup your hamachi vpn did you have it setup as a gateway, mesh or hub and spoke? I had mine operating in a gateway (kind of fudged my way through it) and all off a sudden it went tits up on me.

    Weird thing I noticed is in the logmein web management panel the ubuntu server never comes up as a listed connection. So I cant select it as the gate way. Server is on perfectly fine and shows up in mesh but I fail at hooking the gateway topology back up again.

    Any idea as to why? Sorry to be annoying but I have been looking for a solution for the last 2 days and its starting to give me the shits.

    I don't specify anything anywhere, hamachi gets its own ip address and gateway from the heartbeat servers.

    You can see the connection by typing ifconfig from terminal. I believe its interface is called ham0 or something along those lines (im on my netbook at the moment).

    Never annoying my man, questions only produce more answers and sometimes more questions. Keep em coming :)

    Hey mIT I am having a problem with torrentflux and can't quit work out what I am suppose to do. My search results for pirate bay always fails at loading (I don't receive any error messages), I did a quick search on google and believe it has something to do with setting a cookie but I have no idea on how to set it up.

    Any advice?

    I never really used the torrent search built into torrent flux. I just copy the URL to the .torrent file, or save it locally and xfer it over to torrentflux. You got me on that one.

    Everything I need on a server

    Pretty much everything i need on a server as well. Except i replace OpenVNC with hamachi in my tutorial, but i cover the rest :)

    Ahh so your pretty much in the same boat as me with HDD space. I only allocated 80gb for the ubuntu server data store and was planning on moving torrents to a 1tb shared drive on my HTPC.

    Nice, I didn't know hachachi made a reverse outbound connection and I can see how that would be rather useful when leeching wifi. Just finished doing the hamachi install, I ran into a couple of minor issues in setting up my windows client but that was more to do with my comp acting weird and not showing the ubuntu server. lol that made me waste an hour or so I thought I cocked up another vpn install. A reinstall on the windows client corrected the issue and I now have my gateway hamachi VPN. =D Thanks again for the tutorial it made the linux side of things as painless as possible.

    Quick note on this one. Make sure you're not downloading Hamachi2 from LogMeIn. My tutorial is for the first generation of hamachi, which is far superior than the new POS they released. The reason i point this out is because the hamachi2 clients are on a different heartbeat server, i.e. they cannot see the hamachi1 clients (the linux server). Ensure that you're using the first generation of hamachi on all computers you wish to have on the VPN.

    I figured that the ubuntu server had a web server installed already after loading those webgui programs but I didn't know that you could bind it to a different port (I will have to look into that). Is it possible to use one of the existing installed web servers and run it on port 80 with something like http://myipaddress/mywebsite (from what I can remember torrentflux does something like this)?

    Thanks a bunch for answering my somewhat noobish questions, you have been a great help.

    I would just toss anything you want to host into the Apache HTTP folder which is located @ /var/www

    Example: If i created a folder called hak5 in /var/www [/var/www/hak5] i could simply browse to http://ip.address.or.hostname/hak5 and i will see whats in that folder.

    P.S: Just an Idea on the wifi leeching front, what about purchasing two wifi access points (or mod WRT firmware) that supports client mode and plug it into a Hot Brick LB2. I have been considering purchasing one when the financial gods bestow some money.

    I have two wireless access points running DDWRT for this exact purpose. Now if i could only get my iptables right, i could start directing torrent traffic to one network while leaving the second network with plenty of available bandiwidth :)

    In the end, i would love to get one of these puppies. I could start running karmetasploit side by side with some other fun tools :) .. but i digress, this is starting to get semi off-topic, plus i have this set aside for yet another tutorial to follow up WEP/WPA auditing.

    1: I was curious as to how much HDD space you have for your perfect ubuntu server and what you would class as the min install space for it?

    The server i currently have this setup running on doesn't have a big hard drive. Only 75gb. Heck, even a little 40 gigger could support light downloading as long as you're pulling what you're downloading off the server after it completes.

    2: What port do you forward on your router for hamachi?

    That's beauty of Hamachi VPN. It's a reverse connection outbound to the hamachi heartbeat servers. There is no need to open any ports what-so-ever (great if you're "borrowing" some wifi and can't forward ports)

    3: Seeing as Webmin and torrentflux use either http or https if one was to configure a web server on the linux server will this cause issues with http:ipaddy for the apache server?

    In my tutorial, we're actually running two types of web servers, Apache and CherryPy. Webmin and Torrent flux work off of Apache, whereas SABnzbd+ works off of CherryPy. You could easily move SABnzbd+ over to apache and have every thing under one umbrella, but im a lazy linux admin ;)

    To answer your question; you already have a web server (two infact!) rolled out. If you really wanted to roll out another variant of a web server, you would have to configure it to bind to alternate ports (hence why CherryPy uses port 8080 in my tutorial) as Apache takes over the common HTTP (80) and HTTPS (143) ports.

    Hope this answers your questions, if not, REPLY! :)

    great stuff.

    Kick ass dude, I was planning on doing something like this with the 2nd server I scored and you have saved me a stack load of time searching on how to install it all.

    I am by no means a linux expert and occasionally run into a few issues every so often and its nice to watch someone else do it with an explanation prior to diving into the deep end.

    *tips hat* Thanks mate.

    Thanks for the positive feedback guys :) It really means a lot when i get comments back on stuff i've posted.

    If you're interested, i have a "Pimp my laptop" video i did awhile back with my Toshiba Portege. A lot of people were having trouble getting the touchscreen, digitizer pen and sound working on ubuntu linux.

    Next mini tutorial will probably be a basic WEP/WPA auditing and possibly a "Pimp my desktop" via the new Ubuntu release 9.10 (I had a hell of a time deleting the gnome-panel for my minimalistic setup).

    The perfect linux server to me is something that can maintain all of my downloads, whatever it may be (Torrent, newsgroups, soulseek, ect) that can be controlled and accessed from VPN, LAN or Internet via HTTP... and have it all running when it boots up! (That was the hardest part actually)

    In this video tutorial, i walk you through installing:

    - Webmin (HTTP Adminstration of your server)

    - Torrentflux (HTTP Front-end for Torrent downloads)

    - SABnzbd Plus (HTTP Front-end for Newsgroup downloads)

    - irssi (Text based IRC Chat client)

    - Museek (Soulseek music download daemon)

    - Eggdrop IRC Bot (*does the robot*)

    - Hamachi VPN (Free and easy VPN solution that even my grandma can understand)

    hey man I really want a HoN beta key! & I tried to make an account on your website but it gave me errors o.o..

    I'm also going to try to tweet you. I hope you see this message! Thanks.

    I took a screen shot of the error so you can check it out for yourself:

    Sorry about that. I've been having sql database issues with my site ever since Dreamhost moved it to a new server. I thought i had worked all the bugs out but it looks like my captcha system is broken. I removed it for now and everything seems to be ok again. You can also just use the contact form if it's still not working for you.

    Church of Wifi WPA-PSK Rainbow Tables

    in Security

    Posted

    There are actually 2 youtube tutorials walking you through every step of using backtrack and aircrack-ng etc to crack WEP and WPA-PSK. Your time however would be incredibly more well spent explaining what to do with the 33gig pack from the get go.

    I can't find a tutorial explaining it at all. :/

    My tutorials are based off of Ubuntu, not backtrack, so it wouldn't be a waste of my time :)

    You have to pre-compile your SSID into the 33gb rainbow table using cowpatty.

    Thanks guys sorry to be the noob in the room!

    HAK5 = n00b welcomed

    Make sure the card you're using supports going into prism mode. I know this may seem obvious but its the main thing ppl overlook when starting with wireless pen testing.

    Driver patches for the cards may be needed and are available with the tar, svn and directly in the wiki for aircrack-ng.

    I will be posting tutorials on my blog about this in the near future, starting with cracking WEP (easy peasy).

    WPA Handshake not working

    in Security

    Posted

    think you mistaken what im asking, i have decrypted a key "wikipedia" which i simply wrote in so that means it had the handshake but airodump-ng didnt report back saying it had the handshake in the first place, sorry if im not clear

    You don't catch the hand shake via typing it in on the client. You send deauths to the router masquerading as the client then catch the handshake. I'm sure it will work either way, but that's the way i've always done it.

    Mineral Oil Cooled PC

    A very nice idea, one thats been used in Crays for some time. However, the oil will eat away the PCB eventually.

    This actually was the least of my concerns, after a couple months of over-clocking + gaming, i found that the oil was actually eating away at the sealant that held the fish tank together.

    I came home one day... I'll let you fill in the rest.

    help me get wpa key

    This is blatantly illegal and i have no idea why you guys are helping out with it, but i cannot resist to contribute to what has already been said here...

    I found that WPA keys are typically just someones home phone number. You'd be surprised how often that is. If you know the area code you can build a dictionary file, pre-compile your rainbow tables, and give it a shot.
