CD, VCD & DVD Burning
by John Lange 03 Dec '03

03 Dec '03

At a recent MUUG meeting someone was asking about burning VCDs (Video CDs). I believe the consensus at the meeting was that burning under Linux was comprised of a hodge-podge of various command line tools for converting video formats and burning making it quite difficult at best. I recently stumbled on the following software: http://www.k3b.org/ which seems to bring everything under one roof and claims to do CD, VCD, and DVD burning all in one application (it does not appear to be just a GUI front end to command line tools). However, I do not currently have a burner to test it with so I was hoping someone from the group could give it a whirl and report back on success? Thanks. -- John Lange BigHostBox.com ltd (204) 885 0872 Toll free: 1-866-690-8297

Logging and rejecting with iptables
by Sean A. Walberg 11 Apr '01

11 Apr '01

Further to the question last night on how to both log and drop a packet, it is done with an extra chain. I created a LOGGING chain with a default policy of ACCEPT. The first rule in INPUT was then to jump to LOGGING. Here is what I have (my apologies for any wrapping) [root@poochie /root]# iptables -N LOGGING [root@poochie /root]# iptables -A LOGGING -p tcp --dport printer -j LOG [root@poochie /root]# iptables -I INPUT -j LOGGING [root@poochie /root]# iptables -L INPUT -v Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 1730617 packets, 454636701 bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination 42 2215 LOGGING all -- any any anywhere anywhere 5 300 REJECT tcp -- ppp0 any anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:printer reject-with icmp-port-unreachable ... Telnetted to the printer port from another site ... [root@poochie /root]# iptables -L INPUT -v Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 1730622 packets, 454636941 bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination 48 2515 LOGGING all -- any any anywhere anywhere 6 360 REJECT tcp -- ppp0 any anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:printer reject-with icmp-port-unreachable /var/log/messages: Apr 11 09:07:20 poochie kernel: IN=ppp0 OUT= MAC= SRC=204.112.146.80 DST=209.202.29.23 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=56 ID=11222 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=1254 DPT=515 WINDOW=32120 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 Sean -- Sean A.
