Fedora 15 Review – Linux Distro Reviews

admin — Sun, 01 Jan 2012 01:16:25 +0000

An in-depth look at Fedora 15 Lovelock, sporting the new stable GNOME 3 desktop and GNOME Shell. Fedora is a well supported distribution, and the fusion of GNOME Shell and Fedora’s base creates an innovative, modern and polished desktop for the Linux enthusiast and power user. Definitely a great peek into the future of desktop Linux and it’s a substantially widget base than GNOME and GTK 2.x. Very polished, and arguably much better (think finished) than Unity.

==Check out my blog (infinitelygalactic.blogspot.com) or follow me on twitter (@ingalactic)== A review of the Fedora 16 based, KDE desktop of Kororaa Linux 16. Overall it’s a much more user-friendly and polished version of Fedora with a great selection of out-of-the-box software and codecs, and strives to make installing everyday necessities (eg. Skype, nVidia drivers, AMD drivers, flash) a breeze. Links: Juk: Lightweight Qt Music Player www.omgubuntu.co.uk How to record screencasts: infinitelygalactic.blogspot.com

Firewalls of Linux

Matjaz asked:

Firewalls are necessary for computers if we connect to internet. There are different kinds of methods how the firewalls work and check the incoming information. At the same time the firewalls let the outgoing ports open. It gives security for our computer and protects it from the system mistakes as well. For personal computers it can be enough and useful but for networks maybe not.

Linux uses iptables filter to give stronger protection and security. It’s a software in basic Linux packages. We can exactly determine that how we would like to check the incoming traffic with this program. We can define the criteria for each port, services and we can define our own strict rules for our incoming traffic.

For network level’s security there are several distributions for firewalls. IPCop is one of them. It’s only for security. We need a computer on which IPCop is running and there are some basic activities like framework, connection to network and routing. Linux distributions like SUSE or Fedora use to have graphical desktop, text editor and more software but on IPCop there are only these basic activities and the previously mentioned very important iptables. It’s our firewall between our network and the internet so we don’t work on it.

It needs a more complicated setup but it’s worth because it gives strong protection for our network.

E così, come promesso, torniamo a parlare di GNU/Linux.
Questa volta proviamo ad affrontare una panormaica delle sue distribuzioni, in modo da iniziare ad approfondire il discorso.

Le distribuzioni esistenti sono veramente molte ed ognuna ha caratteristiche diverse per quanto riguarda il numero e le versioni dei programmi installabili ed anche l’organizzazione degli stessi. Così ognuno è libero di scegliere la versione più adatta alle sue necessità.

Ed allora in questo video parliamo di Debian, progetto gestito da una società no-profit, e dei suoi software. Ma parliamo anche di Ubuntu, una delle distro Linux più in voga in questo momento, semplice, immediata e pensata per gli utenti comuni.
E poi passiamo a RedHat con l’omonima società di software opensource e il suo primato di quotazione in borsa. Ed ancora Fedora, sviluppata direttamente dalla comunità.

Ma siccome l’elenco è lungo possiamo ancora dare uno sguardo a Gentoo Linux, metadistribuzione le cui appplicazioni si possono installare compilandole dal codice sorgente. E poi SUSE, prodotta in Germania e quindi attenta alle necessità degli utenti europei. Ed ancora Slackware, la più longeva e forse la più graficamente essenziale.

Ma prima di chiudere il discorso è bene fare ancora un accenno a Solaris e BSD, due distribuzioni non propriamente Linux e comunque molto interessanti.

E visto che Videomarta cerca di essere sempre molto pratica, diamo anche un paio di consigli su come provare le distro Linux. Nello specifico i consigli sono il CD Live e (soprattutto) le macchine virtuali.
Ma come sempre, quando si parla di Linux, il consiglio è di rivolgervi ai Lug della vostra zona per approfondire il discorso.

In the second of five films featuring Uli Drepper, Red Hat developer and the lead contributor and maintainer of the GNU C Library (glibc), he talks a little more about buffer overflows and another security implementation currently being used. Learn a little about libc attacks stemming from buffer overflows and the canaries that serve to protect the stack in these emergencies.
