Joining Ubuntu (10.04 / 10.10 / 11.04) to Active Directory Domain using Terminal

My first post after long break is about Linux (Ubuntu OS). Why Linux!! Because now in Maldives each and every office (Government) will be going to use Open-source software (OSS) / Open-source Operating system (OSOS) at some percentage as copy right law has been passed by the Majilis. As Open-source Operating system NCIT Recommends Ubuntu.  As people are not familiar with Ubuntu I just want to share my knowledge with it.

Please don’t go crazy thinking that all offices will be going fully Open-source, Operating System, Around 25% of each office is getting Open-source Operating System. Others will get OS from Microsoft.  How about Other software’s like CorelDraw, Adobe Reader Pro, Nero etc… start learning new OSS instead of it, because you won't get it any more.

1.  Installing likewise-open

Download from Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for "active directory membership" or install by terminal:-

sudo apt-get install likewise-open likewise-open-gui

2.  Joining domain

System > Administration > active directory membership is the GUI which is easier, otherwise, in terminal:

sudo domainjoin-cli join mydomain.local Administrator

Replace mydomain.local and Administrator with your domain name and the user. Enter password when prompted and you will see a success message and asking you to reboot, but before you reboot follow step 3.

3.  Setting Default login As domain

If you are not using gui and want to login without typing domain + username i.e mydomain/username:

sudo lwconfig assumeDefaultDomain true

Cisco CCNA Basic Config

0 comments
Posted in
I have been studying my Cisco CCNA last month, so I thought I share the things I learn with my blog readers. CCNA is for all the people who want a Career in Network Administrators & System Administrators.


Five Configuration modes in CISOC Router & Switches:
1. User Mode
2. Priviledge Mode
3. Configuration Mode
4. Interface Mode
5. Line mode


Cisco Router Basic Configuration Need:
1. Password + Secret
2. Hostname
3. Interface (IP and subnet mask, no shut, and clock rate)
4. Line configuration

Below are some coding on Basic configuration for Cisco router:


Enter Privilege Mode
Router > enable


Enter Configuration Mode
Router# config t
Or
Router# Configuration Terminal

Note:
“>” Mean you are in User Mode
“#” Mean you are in Priviledge Mode.
“(config)” Mean you are Configuration Terminal


Password need when enter into Privilege Mode next time
Router(config)#enable password p@ssw0rd
Router(config)#enable secret s3cr3t

DoS (denial-of-service attack) or DDoS distributed denial-of-service attack

As most of us know what DDos is! Last week dhiraagu got hit hard by DDos attack. It took 9 days to restore their network back to normal working condition. As told by dhiraagu, they attacked Dhiraage Web Servers & Main Router.

So what DDos?
The use of a DDos is to overwhelm or flood servers, network links, and network devices (routers, firewalls, etc.) by sending segments/packets and making its resource/bandwidth busy or unavailable for Intended Users.
A DDoS attack directs hundreds or even thousands of compromised "zombie" hosts against a single target. These zombie hosts are unwittingly recruited from the millions of unprotected computers accessing the Internet through high-bandwidth, "always-on" connections. By planting "sleeper" codes on these machines, hackers can quickly build a legion of zombies, all waiting for the command to launch a DDoS attack. With enough zombie hosts participating, the volume of an attack can be astounding. The diagram show how DDos work.



Can we Protect Network from DDos!

Yes / No. DDoS is emerging as the weapon of choice for hackers, political "hacktivists," cyber-extortionists, and international cyber-terrorists. Easily launched against limited defenses, DDoS attacks not only target individual Websites or other servers at the edge of the network- they subdue the network itself. Attacks have begun to explicitly target the network infrastructure, such as aggregation or core routers and switches, or Domain Name System (DNS) servers. Because DDoS attacks are among the most difficult to defend against, responding to them appropriately and effectively poses a tremendous challenge for all Internet-dependent organizations. Network devices and traditional perimeter security technologies such as firewalls and intrusion detection systems (IDSs).

Some DDoS attacks Incidents

'Anonymous' group attempts DDoS attack against Australian government (September 9th, 2009)
Twitter & Facebook Taken Offline By DDoS Attacks (August 6th, 2009)
U.S. eyes N. Korea for ‘massive’ DDOS attack (July 8th, 2009)
GoDaddy hit by a DDoS attack (January 16th, 2009)
DNS Backbone DDoS Attacks (October 22nd, 2002)
