Request Tracker
by Montana Quiring 03 Sep '08

03 Sep '08

Hello, If someone could throw me a bone, I would really appreciate it. I think I am very close to having Request Tracker running (it told me so). It said I just needed to finish setting up my web server. I followed some on-line instructions and now when I go my RT URL I get this web page: 500 Internal Error Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, root and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available in the server error log. <---SNIP----> The tail end of my apache error log says this: [Wed Sep 03 06:45:53 2008] [alert] [client 207.161.57.35] (13)Permission denied: FastCGI: failed to connect to (dynamic) server "/opt/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi": something is seriously wrong, any chance the socket/named_pipe directory was removed?, see the FastCgiIpcDir directive [Wed Sep 03 06:45:53 2008] [error] [client 207.161.57.35] FastCGI: incomplete headers (0 bytes) received from server "/opt/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi" <-------SNIP-----> any suggestions? -- -Montana My Netvibes page: http://www.netvibes.com/antikx#About_Montana

MUUG Meeting, Sept 9, 7:30pm -- Advanced Usage of OpenSSH
by gedetil＠cs.umanitoba.ca 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, September 9. The meeting topic for this month is as follows: Advanced Usage of OpenSSH In many ways, SSH has become the ubiquitous tool for using remote shells. It is that, and a lot more. Over the years, SSH (and specifically OpenSSH) has blossomed into a networking and security Swiss-army knife. When used properly, SSH is a powerful tool which can solve some surprisingly difficult problems in very simple and elegant ways. It can also be used as a tool to give you some peace of mind when working in hostile, administratively constrained or seemingly closed networks. In this presentation by Sean Cody, the goal will be to show you a few tips, tricks and secure practices using some lesser known OpenSSH features, as well as some defences against (or at least some awareness of) some of the more clever uses of OpenSSH. The group holds its general meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a MUUG member to attend. ********************************************************************** Please note our meeting location: The IBM offices, at 400 Ellice Ave. (between Edmonton and Kennedy). When you arrive, you will have to sign in at the reception desk, and then wait for someone to take you (in groups) to the meeting room. Please try to arrive by about 7:15pm, so the meeting can start promptly at 7:30pm. Don't be late, or you may not get in. (But don't come too early either, since security may not be there to let you in before 7:15 or so.) Non-members may be required to show photo ID at the security desk. Limited parking is available for free on the street, either on Ellice Ave. or on some of the intersecting streets. Indoor parking is also available nearby, at Portage Place, for $3.00 for the evening. Bicycle parking is available in a bike rack under video surveillance located behind the building on Webb Place. ********************************************************************** For more information about MUUG, and its monthly meetings, check out their Web server: http://www.muug.mb.ca/ Help us promote this month's meeting, by putting this poster up on your workplace bulletin board or other suitable public message board: http://www.muug.mb.ca/meetings/MUUGmeeting.pdf -- Gilbert E.
