Linux: europejskie zagrożenie dla naszych komputerów
Posted by marcin | Filed under linux
Zwolennikom jak i przeciwnikom systemów linuksowych polecam artykuł jaki opublikowano na blogu shelleytherepublican.com. Zacytuję (moim zdaniem) najsmakowitsze kąski z tego artykułu 
:
“If one of your friends is using Linux or may be tempted to try it show them this article. Explain that Linux is a genuine threat and that by using it they may be opening their computer to Chinese hackers.
If you see a company using Linux, it may be that they have not paid for this software. Report them to the Business Software Alliance who have the legal authority to inspect any company’s computers for illegal programs like Linux.”
Dobre, naprawdę dobre

poczta z konsoli czyli mutt + fetchmail + msmtp
Posted by marcin | Filed under linux
Przedstawiam konfigurację programów do czytania i wysyłania poczty z konsoli.
do pobierania poczty posłuży nam fetchmail (pocztę można pobierać również bezpośrednio z mutta), ale ja wybrałem ten sposób pobierania poczty.
- oto mó plik .fetchmailrc (konfiguracja dla gmail):
defaults
proto auto
port 995
password "twoje hasło"
warnings 3600
poll pop.gmail.com
user msiedlarz
keep
ssl
mda "/usr/bin/procmail -f %F -d marcin" //lokalne konto do którego ma być dostarczona poczta
pocztę pobieramy jednorazowo poleceniem fetchmail -a
lub uruchamiamy demona fetchmail -d 120 (pobieranie poczty co 2 minuty).
wysyłaniem poczty zajmuje się demon msmtp (jego zaletą jest bardzo łatwa i przejrzysta konfiguracja).
- oto mój plik .msmtprc (konfiguracja dla gmail):
account default
host smtp.gmail.com
port 587
user msiedlarz
password twoje hasło
auth on
tls on
tls_starttls on
tls_certcheck offostatnią rzeczą jest dopisanie do pliku .muttrc linii:
set sendmail="/usr/bin/msmtp"
i ewentualnie wpis dotyczący edytora i fortunek:
set editor="/usr/bin/vim"
set signature="fortune -s humorix-misc humorix-stories |"
to by było na tyle..
ps: console power
