Real problem is in debian (ubuntu,mint) systems which sudo has all permissions by default. Much simpler to get hacked than other linux versions.

Not Debian. sudo is not enabled by default or given full permissions.
Maybe ubuntu has it like that but even then only for the selected accounts.

Debian is all about stability. They wont do anything that intentionally makes the system vulnerable.

Ubuntu server doesnt use sudo. I believe there's an option during the installation to disable sudo.

Im using amavids-new + postfix + clamav. when i'm testing amavis with "sample-42-mail-bomb.txt", amavis says "PASSED UNCHECKED"

But all other test are success except Mail bomb test. Can someone tell me a solution??

Passed unchecked means it wasnt scanned right ? Also is your clamav up to date ?

 

[oshan1991]

machanlla.... If I have mint installed with gnome desktop and is it possible to change to KDE now? Or do I have to download the KDE version and reinstall?

hy if ur using fedora try this

#yum install @kde-desktop


here c dis http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KDE

no point of just copying

 

[oshan1991]

I'm using KDE (Kubuntu).
Do u think it safe to surf without Firewall???

nope bro its the basic concept of linux
the files cant excecute so it cant run it self unless you give it permission
so the viruses cant run

Thank for the reply Linux Genius


Scenario is like this,

The message pick up by amavisd:10024 from Postfix and check for the SPAM or VIRUS. If it got any virus or double extension zip file it will delete by amavis.



This mechanism is working for most of viruses & exe. But when im testing for Mail Bomb testing, Amavis pick this message & Passe it to postfix without checking.

Amavis didnt expand it exactly because its a mail bomb. right ? if it had expanded it, it would go in to a loop right ?
check the amavis log for that mail. It'll show why it was not scanned.

Ya ya I saw that message.


But my prob is, if real mail bomb comes to my email server what amavis will do?


will it Pass like this??

the idea of a mail bomb is that if the server tries open the mail bomb, then it'll get in to loop and freeze the server.
So not checking the mailbomb is the right thing to do.
Or have I missed something ?

Amavis is a mail filtering service for mail servers. Specifically for smtp servers.
