#vi /etc/network/interfaces

How to assign multiple IP addresses in debian linux:

You can assign multiple IP addresses to the same network interface by using interface alias. This is useful if you need to have more than one server visible on the internet. Note that for multiple Apache servers you can use virtual hosts to add as many servers as you like with one single IP address.Apache simply utilises the domain name supplied by the client in the http host header.

You must turn off dhcp because you must use static assignment if you are configuring multiple IPs, so basically this file is:

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.90
gateway 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255

Assuming that you interface is eth0, you can assign three IP addresses editing /etc/network/interfaces similar to this:

# the loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

#
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.42
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.1

auto eth0:0
iface eth0:0 inet static
address 192.168.1.41
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255

auto eth0:1
iface eth0:1 inet static
address 192.168.1.43
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255

auto eth0:2
iface eth0:2 inet static
address 192.168.1.44
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255

Note that gateway is only assigned to eth0. If you include dns-nameservers, it should also only be specified for eth0.

If you make changes to this file you can cause them to take effect by running:
/etc/init.d/networking restart

# /etc/init.d/networking restart

Today, All Windows7 64bit users received a threat alert called “Trojan.Fakealert.5″.

And it detected all DLL files / EXEs of my windows machine as a trojan and started deleting them. You know how frustrates it? I really have a paid account for Bit Defender Internet Security 2010. I ignored my nerd friend’s words about installing a 3000 days crack for bitdefender and I called myself as “I dont want to steal someone’s work”.

But today, My taskmanager, explorer & almost everything got quarantine. I didnt paid to bitdefender for this lame mistake.

What is the cause of Trojan.FakeAlert.5?

There was a wrong update from bitdefender caused this issue.

How to fixTrojan.FakeAlert.5?

Disable the realtime protection

Antivirus -> Shield -> Disable Real-time protection.

Do not run any scans. Disable if there is any scheduled scans.

Try to do a “System Restore” or restore the “Quarantine” files.

There a big thread at bitdefender forums with thousands of active frustrated users(including me) shouting bitdefender for this lame problem.

Note: My friend & Secure Slash co-editor Mr. PaimPozhil said to me that, There is a “real” trojan in that same name. So, Do not just disable bitdefender!  Scan your computer using “SpyBot Search & Destroy” it will find the exact trojan alone as well. Thanks Paim

It happens once again in same year. Probably more than 4 times in 2009?

If you are facing the problem while loading www.gmail.com . Just wait till they resolve this issue.

But the shame thing is.. Its corporate email solution www.google.com/a works perfect.

Indeed, while Windows 7 has an enhanced driver installation model that is designed to simplify installation, many of its features are implemented via XML and other information stored in what’s known as the Device Display Object. In theory, hardware manufacturers can simply add those components to their existing Vista driver rather than rewriting the entire code base.

However, the window of opportunity (ahem) for relatively private testing won’t be wide. Windows vice president Steven Sinofsky confirmed that Microsoft hopes to have a widespread release of an official Windows 7 beta in early 2009. Although widely available both via its PDC and WinHEC appearances and through numerous illegal torrent sites, the current Windows 7 release is the internal M3 candidate, which is missing many new UI features and isn’t being touted as feature-complete, but rather as a pre-beta. (Most of the demos at WinHEC, incidentally, were on later internal builds.)

Security researchers say they’ve developed a way to partially crack the Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) encryption standard used to protect data on many wireless networks.

The attack, described as the first practical attack on WPA, will be discussed at the PacSec conference in Tokyo next week. There, researcher Erik Tews will show how he was able to crack WPA encryption, in order to read data being sent from a router to a laptop computer. The attack could also be used to send bogus information to a client connected to the router.

To do this, Tews and his co-researcher Martin Beck found a way to break the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) key, used by WPA, in a relatively short amount of time: 12 to 15 minutes, according to Dragos Ruiu, the PacSec conference’s organizer.

They have not, however, managed to crack the encryption keys used to secure data that goes from the PC to the router in this particular attack

Security experts had known that TKIP could be cracked using what’s known as a dictionary attack. Using massive computational resources, the attacker essentially cracks the encryption by making an extremely large number of educated guesses as to what key is being used to secure the wireless data.

The work of Tews and Beck does not involve a dictionary attack, however.

To pull off their trick, the researchers first discovered a way to trick a WPA router into sending them large amounts of data. This makes cracking the key easier, but this technique is also combined with a “mathematical breakthrough,” that lets them crack WPA much more quickly than any previous attempt, Ruiu said.

Tews is planning to publish the cryptographic work in an academic journal in the coming months, Ruiu said. Some of the code used in the attack was quietly added to Beck’s Aircrack-ng Wi-Fi encryption hacking tool two weeks ago, he added.

WPA is widely used on today’s Wi-Fi networks and is considered a better alternative to the original WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) standard, which was developed in the late 1990s. Soon after the development of WEP, however, hackers found a way to break its encryption and it is now considered insecure by most security professionals. Store chain T.J. Maxx was in the process of upgrading from WEP to WPA encryption when it experienced one of the most widely publicized data breaches in U.S. history, in which hundreds of millions of credit card numbers were stolen over a two-year period.

Introducing Android

Android Demo

Full Web Experience: Web Browser on Android-Powered Phones

On Android-powered phones, the browser lets users experience the full web and easily move between browsing and other tasks on their phone.

Android – Apps without borders

Watch Android engineers demonstrate that applications on Android exist without borders. Apps on Android can access core mobile device functionality through standard APIs. Through intents, apps can announce their capabilities for other apps to use.

Sunday:

One day a lamer installed his Vista Ultimate x86 just after adding 1Gig DDR ram. He noticed that installation was smooth and OEM Emulator also went nice. His installation passed in “Genuine” check too. Great!!

Monday:

I hate installating OS in my live machine. It will lead us to install all of our applications, Firewall, Antivirus (I dont use “total security”, A primary Firewall only software is 5 times better than ALL Security shits here software). But Mr.Lamer is eager to download all of his day to day applications like (MSOffice, Winamp, WinRar, RoadRash, VCD Cutter, Yahoo Messenger, uTorrent & etc).

Tuesday:

Everything was smooth. But, Suddenly he got Sky and some birds on monitor. LOL Yes, Blue Screen!

It says some xxx_POOL_Error & Memory dump … He dont know why.

Wednesday:

He become very sad, Yes He already spent 5 days for downloading Vista from a ThePirateBay torrent. He started blaming Vista, Microsoft & almost all microsoft products. He started explaing his experience with his friend. We know that all lamers has a better lamer as their friends. He too experienced same Sky & Birds problem.

Thursday:

Mr.Lamer heard that most of his friends(ofcourse lamers) blamed vista. So he decided to go back to Xp Pro.

Friday:
Windows XP Professional – WoW This is what I call stable OS!! Vista Sucks!! Vista Sucks!!

Well, I see lots of my classmates still blaming Vista.

How not to be a Lamer?

First Understand what is happening inside your hardware & software.

First of all they have to understand onething that, Latest version is always better than older versions.
No matter what powerful Processor you use. But You must need 2GB minimum ram.
40% of RAM comes with “Failure” issue. If you are inserting two rams in your mobo then both of their FSB must be same.

If you use 333mhz & 800mhz rams then you may expect “Auto restart” or Blue Screen problems.

Next one is your drivers. If you have installed a new modem, graphics card, audio device recently then you must check its installation status. An unsuccessful installation may lead BlueScreen errors.

Memory & Drivers cause most of the blue screen problems. If you want to go deeper then download & install Win Debug www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/ and analyze your DMP files.

It is an excellent tool to figure out your hardware issues.

Most of the lamers use pirated copy, They deserve 0$ and expects millions. You can find an another big lamer group in Digg.com they usually digg it & comment bad on all microsoft related topics. They thinks themsevels as Linus, Larry Wall, GNU & others. All they are JUST LAMERS.

lamers never analyze things, They stick with Peer group. They never find solutions. If you do the same then do not do it more. Find the solutions & stop being a lamer.

Lamers can not find the exact problem and solution. All they can say is

“I suck last night, Vista does now!”.

1.Internet Explorer 6.0

2.Firefox 3.1X

Try the same to even to test your browsers.

First one tested runing a saved javascript file and here is the coding.

<script language=”javascript”>
var n=100;
for(i=0;i<100;i++)
window.open(“http://www.hwquest.com”);
</script>

IE:

Internet Explorer started opening 100 windows LOL. I killed the IE image in taskmanager.

Firefox:

Wisely showed a popup blocker asking user permission saying “This site trying to open 100 popups”

Thought how wise are the firefox programmers, extending one step further i tried direct javascript implementation by typing this in address bar

javascript:for(i=0;i<100;i++)window.open(“http://www.hwquest.com”);

The result it opened 100 tabs. So its not bad to report this bug or problem to firefox team.

IE 7 resulted in alert message saying harmful script!

First of all phpdev wants to be installed on the default port of HTTP servers ie port 80.If you where using IIS on port 80, you need to change the IIS port before installing phpdev.

Steps to change the IIS port
1.Click Start > Administrative Tools > Internet Information Services.
2.Expand the console tree to reveal the Default Web Site.
3.Right-click Default Web Site and choose Properties.
4.Enter an unused port number in the TCP Port text box and click OK. (We can chose 8080, but if you’re running Tomcat on 8080, you should enter another unused port.)


5.To verify the changes goto the browser and type “http://localhost:
/yoursite/”

Following are the Steps to install Phpdev:
1.Download phpdev from SourceForge.net to a folder on your computer.
2.Double-click the executable file, phpdev423.exe, to launch the installer.
3.You can change the drive of your wish to install phpdev by the the browser button.

4.Click Install.
5.The installer copies the required files into the installation directory.
6.When the installation is complete, the following command prompt appears.

7.The command prompt instructs you to run the appropriate batch file to start Apache and MySQL. Before you do this, open the file in Notepad (e.g., C:\phpdev\2K-NT-XP-phpdev_start.bat). The Windows NT/2000/XP version contains the following code:
cd c:\phpdev\apache
start apache -k start
cd c:\phpdev\
start apachemonitor.exe
cd c:\phpdev\mysql\bin
start mysqld-nt.exe –standalone
start http://localhost/
exit
8.Ensure that the paths in the batch file are correct. If not, revise them and save the file.
9.Double-click the batch file for your platform to start Apache and MySQL.
This opens the phpdev home page in your browser:

Which shows the phpdev home page lists the files and folders in your web root (e.g., C:\phpdev\www). In addition, this page links to phpMyAdmin and two sample applications: phpWebSite and Invision Discussion Board (IBForums).

Go Back to Where You Left Off in a Document or To return to the place where you last edited a Word document, press Shift+F5.

Quick Word Deletion
You can delete entire words with your keyboard. Just put your cursor at the beginning of the word and press Ctrl+Del together. This is very useful when editing.

Customize Line Spacing and Alignment
The Ctrl key is your best buddy when you want to experiment with line spacing and alignment variations. Ctrl+1 provides single spacing, Ctrl+2 provides double spacing and Ctrl+5 provides 1-1/2 line spacing. Ctrl+R right aligns a paragraph.

MS EXCEL

Instant in-cell graphs
Use the repeat (REPT) function in Excel to create a bar graph inside cells. REPT looks like this: =REPT(“text”; number_of_times). For instance, REPT(“X”; 10) gives you “XXXXXXXXXX”. For in-cell bar charts, the trick is to repeat a single bar “|”. When formatted in 8 point Arial font, single bars look like bar graphs. Of course, number_of_times can also be substituted with a cell number.

MS POWERPOINT

Annotate during Presentations
While giving a slide show presentation, right-click in the active window then choose an annotation item from the Pointer Options submenu, such as Felt Tip Pen or Ballpoint Pen. You can write directly on the slides: underline words, draw a picture, whatever. To return to normal use, and move onto the next slide, select Arrow from the submenu.

Easy method
Download a piece of software from Petter Nordhal-Hagen’s website. But, before that be warned that this method involves the manipulating of Vista’s SAM database which is always a bit risky. You will need to create a boot disk (CD) from the downloaded software and this will then help you to manipulate the Vista’s SAM database.

I would like to re-assure you at this point that I have used this cool tool a couple of times on a Windows 2000 Server Box before and i never had any problem . Since, the new version of this cool software supports Windows Vista – so I can recomend the same.

Harder method:
In this method you will need to have a Windows Vista Password Reset Disk handy which will enable you to reset your password easily. But the point to note is that you should have created a Vista Password Reset Disk earlier in the first place.

Steps to create a Vista Password Reset Disk:
1. In Vista’s Start Menu search box type the word “user accounts” and open the user accounts
2.Click on Create a password reset disk found on the left navigation bar (The first one on the left – below Tasks).
3.Run the Forgotten Password Wizard which will open. Insert a floppy disk or a USB memory disk.
4.After you have inserted the storage device click on the Next button. Select your drive and then Next.
5.Now you’ll need to type your current Vista user account password and click Next.
6.And that’s it you have done a Vista password reset disk.
7.Now keep the Vista Password Reset Disk in a safe location

When you have forgotten your Vista Password or type the wrong password and press Enter.You wil get a error message.Just below the Error Message you will have a link saying Reset password. Click that link and follow the instructions.

Creating a New User:

To create a New User(mynewuser) in PostgreSQL we will use the CREATE ROLE command as follows:

postgres=#CREATE ROLE mynewuser
postgres-#login
postgres-#password ‘mypassword’;

This will create a new user called ‘mynewuser’ with the password ‘mypassword’.

Creating TableSpace :

Now we will move ahead to create the default tablespace for the new database. This is where the database’s files will be stored. Create a new folder structure as C:/myDB/mynewuser/system

The steps below will help you to create a new tablespace as mynewuser_system

postgres=# CREATE TABLESPACE mynewuser_system
postgres-# OWNER jason
postgres-# LOCATION ‘C:/myDB/mynewuser/system’;

Hers’s how you can check if the tablespace was created. Just key in the following command.

postgres=#db+ mynewuser_system

Create a Database and the related Database objects:

Finally we will now create a new database and the associated database objects. It’s very simple… so here are the SQL Statements.
postgres=# CREATE DATABASE myFirstPSQLdb
postgres-# OWNER jason
postgres-# TEMPLATE template0
postgres-# TABLESPACE mynewuser_system;

You can verify if the Database is installed properly by the following command.
postgres=#l+

Now we will finally create the related Database Objects.

First login into the Database:
postgres=# c myFirstPSQLdb

Then run your SQL script as follows:
myFirstPSQLdb=# i C:/myDB/myObjects.sql

Software guys will start preparing code to attract her.. is it?

But then I cannot stop your dream.. go ahead.. put your comments here
