RE: [cobalt-developers] post restore blues



Wow,

Since you are already so deep in this, I would suggest to open up your box,
detach the hard disk and mount it into another *nix-box, so you can
restore/fix things
from there. This will void the warranty however.

Good luck.

: Hello.
:
: What can be causing my inability to access my raq 3 from a browser;
: telnet or FTP? The only way I can get to it are thru a serial port and a
: null modem cable. The *only* changes I have made are in my hosts.allow.
:
: The story, briefly:
:
: I restored my raq via .iso on Tuesday. Gave the box a local IP addy-
: don't have a static here at home. I was able to get into the box via
: http, FTP and telnet just fine via the null modem cable. I managed to
: install ssh; portsentry, logcheck, lcap, whois, Ipchains, lionfind and
: chkrootkit. I was working on tripwire when the weather got nasty so I
: shut everything down. I was able to get into my box every conceivable
: way. Later; I tried to get into the box, couldn't. Well I knew I had
: managed to block my self with portsenty; completely forgot to add myself
: to hosts allow and of course couldn't get in. This is when My troubles
: began. Managed to get in on another computer; got to the hosts allow;
: added myself; and deleted me from hosts deny (this little journey took
: about 3 hours because vi and I do not get along)
:
: After finally being able to get myself in, I figured I should now be
: able to get in on my own computer. Wrong. Only way I can get in is
: limited terminal. That's it. Tried everything I could most of Wednesday
: night; combed the archives,looked at logfiles until I turned blue,
: changed IPs did a bit of everything. Nothing worked.
:
: So yesterday morning I decided to restore once again. Using the same iso
: cd I burned earlier in the week (it has updates up til 5/9/01) Same
: problem. Only it took me all day to hit on an IP that will alow me to
: terminal into the box. Finally; last night I got into the box and
: changed my hosts.allow. (and I don't want to tell you how I did that
: one) and started slocate. I picked apart my boot messages line by line
: and searched them in the archives. I tried fsck (got a command not found
: on that) There is nothing unusual in the logfiles; except for momentary
: glitches that I knew I had caused.
:
: In the inetd.conf file; telnet is enabled. Forgot to look at proftp. I
: looked at my services file; this is what is enabled:
:
: tcpmux1/tcp# TCP port service multiplexer
: echo7/tcp
: echo7/udp
: discard9/tcpsink null
: discard9/udpsink null
: systat11/tcpusers
: daytime13/tcp
: daytime13/udp
: netstat15/tcp
: qotd17/tcpquote
: msp18/tcp# message send protocol
: msp18/udp# message send protocol
:
: I looked at my httpd.conf file; there is nothing there added for my ip.
: In named; I only have 127.0.0.1 and the ip I am currently using. (found
: something curious here; I reset the ip for that of my ip; and I still
: managed to login under the local 192.168 number I was using)
:
: When I try to access http, ftp or telnet I get a connection timed out.
: Sometimes I get a host not found; this happens when I change IPs. I even
: tried to ftp my rpms from my local machine to the cobalt; just kept
: getting a listing message. Tried to ftp from a normal site from the
: cobalt; got host not found. I have tried to get in thru http thru
: variations of
: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:81/.cobalt/sysManage/ no go.
