RH9 and MySQL

by Bill Smith

Anyone know off-hand what version(s) of MySQL is available with the RH9 installation? I checked out the RH website, but i didn't get any useful information. I'm looking to see if the latest MySQL release (4.x) is included...

Re: [Wlug] freeswan

I think you actually might want a vpn between networks ... If you put your wireless network behind a firewall, and then only allow ipsec through it onto your home lan (and I assume onto the internet eventually). Then your vpn uses the wireless network as the untrusted network (instead of using the internet as the untrusted network). Anyone not on the VPN can't get any packets onto the rest of your network. This does 2 things. 1) Encryption like you want so people can't see what you're doing. 2) Authentication - so only authorized people on the VPN can access anything on the rest of the network. This could be a lot stronger protection than WEP gives you. Of course I've never actually done this, but there was an article I read a while back suggesting it, perhaps it's in the Linux Journal archives. -Marc On Wed, 23 Apr 2003, Wes Allen wrote: > Is anyone out there using freeswan? > > I'm thinking of repeating my wireless network over to my office after my move > and I'm thinking of setting up freeswan to encrypt the traffic more tightly > on the network when I do. > > The howto's I've found have been on setting up a vpn between networks, is it > possible to set up freeswan to encrypt traffic on a single lan (until sdmca > laws make it technically illegal to do so.....). > > Wes > -- > ------ > This message may be signed using GPG, for my public key please > send me a message with "Key Request" in the subject line. > > > _______________________________________________ > Wlug mailing list > Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org > http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug > > > >

freeswan

by Wes Allen

Is anyone out there using freeswan? I'm thinking of repeating my wireless network over to my office after my move and I'm thinking of setting up freeswan to encrypt the traffic more tightly on the network when I do. The howto's I've found have been on setting up a vpn between networks, is it possible to set up freeswan to encrypt traffic on a single lan (until sdmca laws make it technically illegal to do so.....). Wes -- ------ This message may be signed using GPG, for my public key please send me a message with "Key Request" in the subject line.

Oooooh, one with a hardware encoder/decoder! When you get it working, please let us know how well it works.

If anybody wants to embelish the description, please send me your suggestions and I'll post them. In fact, I found the talk so interesting that I just went out and bought the Hauppauge PVR-350.

wireless repeating...

by Wesley Allen

Hi all, We're MOVING! And now I have an opportunity to learn something new... Where we're going, our house is right next to the Church, and the Church offices are 25 yards from the Church and across the street. The Church is made of stone, the office-building is made of brick. Do you think it's possible to somehow put a repeater in the Church that will extend my wireless network the "last mile" so I can have internet access in my study? If so, what would you recommend? I know I'll have to set up a VPN for all my clients so traffic is in the clear on the network, but what hardware would allow me to do this? Wes -- Wesley Allen <wallen(a)charter.net>
