Use SSH Keys (public key cryptography) to connect on your LAN

Learning by example: (and borrowing from the Arch wiki)

I want to connect to my desktop from my htpc.
Assuming that openssh is installed and the daemon is running, and that /etc/ssh/sshd_config is configured to your satisfaction.

Issue the following command to create a 521 bit long public/private ECDSA key pair with an extended comment on the HTCP.

htpc $ ssh-keygen -t ecdsa -b 521 -C "$(whoami)@$(hostname)-$(date -I)"

Authorized_keys file

In order to connect from the htpc, the desktop must have a copy of the htpc's public key in its ~/.ssh/authorized_key file. Use whatever method you have available to get a copy of the id_ecdsa.pub to the desktop.

desktop $ scp david@htpc:/home/david/.ssh/id_ecdsa.pub /home/david/tmp

Then import this public key into the ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file.

desktop $ cat ~/tmp/id_ecdsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
desktop $ rm ~/tmp/id_ecdsa.pub

Known_hosts

Upon your first connection to the desktop, you will see the following

htpc $ ssh david@desktop

The authenticity of host 'desktop (192.168.1.110)' can't be established.

ECDSA key fingerprint is 61:3e:e6:40:29:d7:d8:dc:db:f8:0b:d9:74:c5:d6:6f.

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes

Warning: Permanently added 'desktop,192.168.1.110' (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.

Enter passphrase for key '/home/david/.ssh/id_ecdsa':

This creates an entry in /home/david/.ssh/known_hosts which will allow connections to desktop.

Adding bittorrent ports to my iptables

I accessed my router and did the port forwarding necessary to allow my bittorrent client (transmission) to seed properly, but I also needed to add a rule to my iptables to allow the traffic through.

My setup is

Internet     ->     Hardware Router        ->     Linux Desktop
                    with port forwarding          Client
                    enabled

I began by backing up my current iptables file

$ sudo cp /etc/iptables/iptables.rules /etc/iptables/iptables.rules.20130716

I am using Arch Linux Simple Stateful Firewall along with Transmission bittorrent client. The default port is 51413, so I needed to perform the following commands:

$ sudo iptables -A TCP -p tcp --dport 51413 -j ACCEPT
$ sudo iptables -A TCP -p tcp --sport 51413 -j ACCEPT
$ su -c "iptables-save > /etc/iptables/iptables.rules"
Password:
$ sudo systemctl restart iptables.service

If I want to revert back to my old rules (which block port 51413) I can issue the command

$ sudo iptables-restore < /etc/iptables/iptables.rules.20130716
$ su -c "iptables-save > /etc/iptables/iptables.rules"
Password:
$ sudo systemctl restart iptables.service

Samba blocked - smbclient returns Error for a configured user

I was getting two errors,

$ smbclient -L hostname -U%
params.c:OpenConfFile() - Unable to open configuration file "/etc/samba/smb.conf":
No such file or directory
smbclient: Can't load /etc/samba/smb.conf - run testparm to debug it
Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 4.0.5]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

and

$ smbclient -L hostname --user username
params.c:OpenConfFile() - Unable to open configuration file "/etc/samba/smb.conf":
No such file or directory
smbclient: Can't load /etc/samba/smb.conf - run testparm to debug it
Connection to hostname failed (Error NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED)

The first error was due to samba not being public and therefore i needed to specify a samba username (who must also be a system user, see here) who was granted samba permissions.

The second error I was receiving simply because I had my firewall set using iptables, and had not opened the correct ports for samba!

I performed the following commands and corrected it.

sudo iptables -A TCP -p tcp --dport 139 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A TCP -p tcp --dport 445 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A UDP -p udp --sport 137 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A UDP -p udp --dport 137 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A UDP -p udp --dport 138 -j ACCEPT
su -c 'iptables-save > /etc/iptables/iptables.rules'

This opens the samba ports and then saves the rules to the iptables config file. Finally, restart the iptables service. For Arch, this is

sudo systemctl restart iptables.service

Done. Now my correctly configured /etc/samba/smb.conf file is enough to grant me access to my shares.

Slackware lirc with mceusb

For my older installation (Slackware 12.2) I made this post to get lirc working.

Woodsman has posted this post and this post about starting lirc, which may help.

On Arch, where lirc is currently working, I have the following output
$ lsmod | grep lirc
ir_lirc_codec 4027 3
lirc_dev 9359 1 ir_lirc_codec
rc_core 13280 14 mceusb,ir_nec_decoder,ir_rc5_decoder,ir_rc6_decoder,ir_jvc_decoder,rc_rc6_mce,ir_sony_decoder,ir_sanyo_decoder,ir_mce_kbd_decoder,ir_lirc_codec,cx88xx,rc_winfast

However, I did the following for my Slackware 13.37:

I firstly installed lirc from Slackbuilds.
I tried to start lircd but had to create a folder to prevent the following error:

lircd: can't open or create /var/run/lirc/lircd.pid
lircd: No such file or directory

Simple solution, use the following command (as root):
# mkdir -p /var/run/lirc

Start lircd with this command (as root)
# lircd -d /dev/lirc/0

Post about getting MythTV backend to wake for recordings

Thanks, Lester_Burnham for this post!

Simple test to wake the machine 5 minutes from now (if this works, you're pretty much set)

sudo sh -c "echo 0 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm"
sudo sh -c "echo `date '+%s' -d '+ 5 minutes'` > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm"
cat /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm

Check

cat /proc/driver/rtc

This should return a list of parameters. Check the alrm_time is 5 minutes into the future and the alrm_date is today. Shutdown your computer and see if it comes back up in ~5 min.

sudo shutdown -h now

If the alarm is set then you should see something like this. If so then shutdown and see if it wakes up at the alarm date/time.

rtc_time : 13:40:26
rtc_date : 2008-12-21
alrm_time : 10:45:00
alrm_date : 2008-12-22
alarm_IRQ : yes
alrm_pending : no
24hr  : yes
periodic_IRQ : no
update_IRQ : no
HPET_emulated : no
DST_enable : no
periodic_freq : 1024
batt_status : okay

The folder (and in fact this file) can be found at this post of Arkays.

A good post from rileyp about making custom ~/.lirc/irexec is located here.
