LINUX HOWTO 2nd installment (Errata: see below)

This is the second installment in a new series called Linux HOWTOS. Every week I will post a video explaining how to accomplish something using a GNU/Linux operating system. Please write requests for installments in the comments!

Have you ever wished you could access your desktop from another computer over the internet? There are many proprietary programs that allow you to do this, but Linux has all the tools you need to accomplish this securely, effectively, and for free. All you need is SSH (included in most Linux distros) and a VNC server. This video explains how to install and configure the software so you can access your desktop from anywhere, even on a windows PC (use PUTTY: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ and TightVNC http://www.tightvnc.com )

If you have any questions, please ask in the comment field, and I or someone else will do our best to answer. Please avoid ‘RTFM’-style answers. They are not welcome. Also please post corrections if I mistakenly give some wrong information.

Network configuration can be tricky and I certainly didn’t have time in the video to consider different networking hardware setups. If you try VNC over SSH and have some problems, feel free to leave a question in the comments.

***Errata***
./vncinstall must be run as a root user:

$ pwd
/usr/src/tightvnc-1.3.9/vnc_unixsrc
$ su root
Password: *******
# ./vncinstall /usr/local/bin /usr/local/man
************

There was a request to see a list of the commands used in this video, so here they are:

(install vnc)
cd /usr/src/tightvnc-1.3.9
tar -xjf *bz2
cd vnc*
xmkmf
make World
cd Xvnc
./configure
make
cd ..
su
./vncinstall /usr/local/bin /usr/local/man
vncpasswd

(start ssh)
service sshd start (may be different on your distro)
exit
ssh -L 10101:ip-or-host:590? -p port# ip-or-host
vncserver (same ? as previous line)

(new terminal)
vncviewer localhost::10101

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.

1991 rief der finnische Informatikstudent Linus Torvalds die Internetgemeinde der Welt auf, sich an der Entwicklung eines freien, offenen und kostenlosen Computer-Betriebssystems zu beteiligen. Linux war geboren. Mittlerweile ist Linux populärer denn je, und zwar bei Privatleuten, Firmen und Behörden. Die “neues spezial”-Dokumentation stellt die Idee und Geschichte des Betriebssystems dar.

Documentary: GNU / Linux : The Codebreakers [PART 1/2] This Documentary shows the Benefits of Free and Open Source Software for development countries. The crew of the independent producers who made the film went to nearly a dozen countries around the world to see how the adoption of FOSS presents opportunities for industry and capacity development, software piracy reduction, and localization and customization for diverse cultural and development needs. Stories from The Codebreakers include computer and Internet access for school children in Africa, reaching the poor in Brazil, tortoise breeding programmes in the Galapagos, connecting villages in Spain, and disaster management in Sri Lanka. The documentary also includes interviews from key figures around the worl This Video was produced by the Asia Pasific Development information Programme.
