Deb is the Debian package or as an ‘installer’ for Debian-based distributions. There are two types of Debian packages, both with the same functionality to implement certain command, resource or resources.
Permissions on Linux, is the main "feature" of Unix-based systems. They are used in different ways and for different purposes. But mostly for safety and organization of a system.
Through the permissions, you can define who can access, write and execute a file. Any per group, or per-user. With permissions, Linux prevents a malicious program, for example, delete a file that should not send special files to someone else or provide network access for other users to invade the system.
Let us understand better, and learn how to change and check the permissions of certain directory or file.
To check the permissions of a file or directory, it is common to use the command ls with parameter -l , it’s will discover with the permissions and owners of files and directories .
ls -l /home/vinicius/tmp/
Returns me the result:
total 4 -Rw-r - r - 1 vinicius vinicius 0 Nov 22 12:59 index.html lrwxrwxrwx 1 vinicius vinicius 15 Nov 22 12:59 link -> / home / vinicius / drwxr-xr-x 2 vinicius vinicius 4096 Nov 22 24:59 test -Rwxrwxrwx 1 vinicius vinicius 0 Nov 22 13:00 test_777
Okay? Ta thinking this is a lot of loose letter right? Let us understand what each part of it means.
To know what each item is, just look at the first letter.
You noticed that these letters are being repeated throughout the list of ls, each has its meaning:
Ready now know the meaning of each letter, we can now interpret the results of ls command. We can divide the result into 3 parts, let's take the first line as an example:
rw- | r - | r -
Each group of 3 characters means this order, the permission for the owner, permissions for the group that owns the file owner and permissions to other users.
Reading data only allowed -rw-r – r – , we can identify that a file is that the file owner has read and write permission, and that the other ( group and others) allowed only read.
Each letter has its corresponding bit, which can be identified as follows:
| Lyrics | Binary | Decimal | Meaning |
| — | 000 | 0 | No permission |
| – x | 001 | 1 | Execute permission |
| -w- | 010 | 2 | Permission writing |
| wx | 011 | 3 | write and execute permission |
| r – | 100 | 4 | Read Permission |
| rx | 101 | 5 | Readable and execution |
| rw- | 110 | 6 | Permission reading and writing |
| rwx | 111 | 7 | All permissions |
Using the above table if we can change the permission of files and directories with the chmod.
The syntax of the command chmod:
chmod
Some examples:
chmod 777 test.txt
chmod 444 test.txt
chmod 644 test.txt
besides using chmod permissions with numbers , there is also possibility to use the most boring form of letters . Where we need to understand that
With this we can use the chmod as follows :
chmod u + x test.txt
chmod g+ r test.txt
As I said earlier , the permission 777 is the full permission to something , ie everyone can edit, delete , write . Imagine a file with permission 777 where everyone can edit it , someone with malicious intentions can edit your file , and run it , you can steal valuable information , run something on your operating system and erase data . So it is normal if you use permission 755 for directories and 644 for non-executable files such as php files on hosting servers .
Even this is something that some servers block with suPHP , whenever you have getting error 403 , first check the permissions of your files and folders , as in 90% of cases the problem is this .

We’ll cover some more advanced forms of improve the performance of linux.
Disabling than anything, or fiddling with the interface.
I separated the 3 things that I normally use to improve my servers, and virtual machines.
For those who do not know what is ramlog … can kill yourself now. Just kidding, read the rest. Then mate.
As the name says Rams – log means store the log in the ram, instead of pouring it on disk directly. How common is used by syslog.
Thus is avoided that there is always written to disk, which is a bottleneck of performance on any server. Exist only when the ramlog is restarted or stopped.
The use of ramlog, makes a big difference in performance
Ramlog – http://www.tremende.com/ramlog site you can find the installation tutorial for various distributions.
SSH without password
Access ssh without password, I think it’s one of the things, most useful for anyone who has to deal with multiple servers at the same time, especially for those who need to make copies of files between them.
To use this facility, simply installing the ssh-keygen , to generate the key machine. For this generation can use two types of encryption, namely, rsa and dsa
RSA is an algorithm for data encryption, which owes its name to three professors from MIT Institute (founders of the current company RSA Data Security, Inc.), Ronald Rivest, Adi Shamir and Leonard Adleman, who invented this algorithm – to date (2008), the most successful systems implementation asymmetric keys, and is based on classical theories of numbers. It is considered the safest, since he sent away all attempts to break it. It was also the first algorithm to enable encryption and digital signature, and one of the great innovations in public-key cryptography.
source: http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA
RSA is the most commonly used, mainly because it is the default ssh-keygen.
DSA is an acronym for Digital Signature Standard (Digital Signature Standart), created by NIST, and specifies the digital signature for DSA and SHA-1 for hashing. The DSA is an asymmetric algorithm and the private key operates on the hash SHA-1. To verify the signature piece of code calculates the hash piece and another uses the public key to decrypt the signature, and finally comparing the results of both ensuring the author of the message. The DSA works with keys of 512 to 1024 bits, but unlike the RSA which is multipurpose, DSA ??signs only and does not guarantee confidentiality. Another against DSA is that the generation of the signature is faster than RSA, but 10 to 40 times slower to check the signature.
How does ssh-keygen?
The ssh-keygen , raises public and private keys, so that from them if you can access the server. Which in our case will occur without typing the password, but this key usage is as a hint, to improve the security of access to the server, of course, if using with password.
Hands on mass
Open your terminal, call your grandmother, and the whole family to watch.
Generating the keys
It is up to you which encryption use, so I made the explanation of the two. Since you’re with your family, make a poll to decide which is the best. After the vote, follow the tutorial, I’ll use the rsa, if uses dsa, just change where rsa, dsa.
log in to terminal, with the user that you want to access the server without password. Because the key is specific to the user.
ssh-keygen-t rsaYou will get the following response:
Generating public/private rsa key pair. Enter file in which to save the key (/home/vinicius/.ssh/id_rsa):My user is vinicius, I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but my name is that (see the url!).Finally, choose the folder in which to save the key. If ta with laziness only confirms.And you will receive another message.This step is very important
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):As you read above, enter the password (the password). As we want to access without password, only, confirm (press enter, ask your grandmother!) without typing anything.He will ask for confirmation, press “enter” again. Confirmation:
Enter same passphrase again:Ready, created the key.
Your identification has been saved in/home/vinicius/.ssh/id_rsa. Your public key has been saved in/home/vinicius/.ssh/id_rsa.pub. The key fingerprint is ...It generates a lot of cute character, that are not suitable to put in this post. Everything created, now we put the public key on the server, to which we want to access without password.
Putting the public key in the destination server.
There are a few different ways to do this step, even found a very interesting when writing this post. I will describe two, a simple, and another simpler still.
Simple mode
What must be done is to put the contents of the public key (id_rsa.pub) on the server, specifically the file authorized_keys in either user, the server, to which we have access.
Let’s assume that the user name is joao, on the server viniciusmuniz.com
First let’s copy the public key to the server
/home/vinicius/.ssh/id_rsa.pub scp joao@viniciusmuniz.com:/home/joao/enter their password, their penultimate time to type it. And then access the server, and place the public key in the authorized_keys
ssh joao@viniciusmuniz.com cat/home/joao/id_rsa.pub > >/home/joao/.ssh/authorized_keysReady! Now test the ssh access, that there will be no further need for password.
Super simple mode
This way I found writing this post. There is a facility that is the ssh-copy-id , which with just one command, he inserts the public key in the destination server.
ssh-copy-id -i /home/vinicius/.ssh/id_rsa.pub joao@viniciusmuniz.comAccessing ssh without password
Now just login, there will be no more need for password. Join the fun!
ssh joao@viniciusmuniz.com
Hello, after a long time without writing, I finally found the time.
And in another tutorial, we’ll learn how discover open ports or closed on a server, computer …
For this task, we use the command nmap .
According to nmap’s own description, the application is:
Nmap (“Network Mapper”) is an open source tool for network exploration and security auditing. It was designed to track (Scan) large networks quickly yet works well with a single host (host). Nmap uses raw IP packets in (raw) on new ways to determine what hosts (hosts) are available on the net …
For more details you can find in http://nmap.org/ . I like to use nmap, but it does not mean that this is the only way to accomplish this task.
The simplest of commands, just run nmap to the server that you want to investigate
nmap test.com
nmap -s test.com
Very useful for network administrators
nmap 192.168.254.1 192.168.254.2 192.168.254.3
nmap 192.168.254.1-10Verifying a range using wildcard
nmap 192.168.254.*
nmap -p [port] test.com
nmap -p 80-400 test.com
Again, this is not the only method of doing this scan. And you can find more about nmap the link: http://www.cyberciti.biz/networking/nmap-command-examples-tutorials/
