[solved] Problem setting up a dedicated ssh proxy user

I created a user which should only be able to create a ssh SOCKS tunel, with no shell access:
username: proxy
User ID: 1000 (or should it be 500?)
shell: /bin/cat
password: xxx
group: users
The problem is that when I try to ssh to it by
ssh proxy@ip -vvv
or set up a tunnel
ssh proxy@ip -D 9999 -vvv
I get asked for the password and when I give it, I get:
debug2: we did not send a packet, disable method
debug3: authmethod_lookup password
debug3: remaining preferred: ,password
debug3: authmethod_is_enabled password
debug1: Next authentication method: password
proxy@ip's password:
debug3: packet_send2: adding 64 (len 58 padlen 6 extra_pad 64)
debug2: we sent a password packet, wait for reply
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,password
Permission denied, please try again.
I am positive the password given is correct.

My problem in using weblogic Datasource and proxy user

Hello
I create a DataSource in Weblogic that connect to the database by a proxy user and I have a client application that use this DataSource and create a proxy session , I've written my client application (it's a stand alone client application) code below :
public static void main(String [] args) {
OracleConnection conn=null;
javax.sql.DataSource ds=null;
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put( Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory" );
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://127.0.0.1:7001");
try{
Context context=new InitialContext( env );
ds=(javax.sql.DataSource) context.lookup ("OracleConnection2");
conn=(OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
java.util.Properties prop = new java.util.Properties();
prop.put(OracleConnection.PROXY_USER_NAME, "web_user1");
prop.put(OracleConnection.PROXY_USER_PASSWORD,"web_user1");
conn.openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME, prop);
if (conn.isClosed()){
System.out.println("Connection closed");
return;
testJDBC(conn,true);
for(int k=0;k<10;k++){
testJDBC(conn,false);
conn.close(OracleConnection.PROXY_SESSION);
conn.close();
}catch(Exception ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
It works but my problem is that in line "prop.put(OracleConnection.PROXY_USER_PASSWORD,"web_user1")" or line "prop.put(OracleConnection.PROXY_USER_NAME, "web_user1");"
Let me to mention a scenario :
*1- I type a wrong username or password in my client application and I run the client application it shows me this error : invalid username/password*
*this error is acceptable*
*2- then I correct the wrong username or password immediately and run the application again , it shows me this error (at line conn.openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME, prop)) :*
java.sql.SQLException: Closed Connection

     at oracle.HRFacadeClient.main(HRFacadeClient.java:38)
*4 - if I repeat running the application for multi times every time it shows me the previous error*
*5- I wait about one minute the problem solved and my application can create proxy session *
the result is that if I wanna create proxy session by wrong username or password and I get "Invalid username/password" error message , then after correcting username or password I have to wait about one minute and then run the application again_
Do you know how I can overcome this problem ?
Thank you

Hi Jamshid,
There is same problem observed few days back with us, and we have used the below code, and it got solved. Actually there is a problem observed while using proxy connections on weblogic.
if(conn instanceof weblogic.jdbc.extensions.WLConnection){
     weblogic.jdbc.extensions.WLConnection cn=(weblogic.jdbc.extensions.WLConnection)conn;
     cn.clearStatementCache();

[SOLVED] Problems setting DPI on my Razer Orochi mouse

Hi,
I recently installed Arch on my laptop and configured mostly everything but I can't get the two right buttons on my Orochi to work - they are in charge of changing DPI on the fly (I think usually in chunks of 500 with 2000 as the default max through Bluetooth)
I have scoured the Arch Wiki and Google and I'm at a loss as to how to fix this problem (I click them and they do nothing)
Razercfg currently doesn't support Orochi - It uses Synapse 2.0 on Windows to configure
Anyone have any advice? The on-the-fly DPI change is useful for video games and I'd like to get it working
EDIT: After having a few beers and playing with it some more, I realized that the two buttons are registering as key presses and not button presses. Knowing that, the solution became fairly obvious:
- Run xbindkeys_config (I like the GUI version) and bind these commands to each button:
xinput --set-prop "Razer Orochi" "Device Accel Constant Deceleration" .5
xinput --set-prop "Razer Orochi" "Device Accel Constant Deceleration" 2
Could probably pretty easily write a script to put in more than just two values but that should be enough for my needs
So thanks anyway everyone - and I hope this helps someone in the future

[SOLVED] Problem setting up Xorg (following the beginner's guide)

Ok, so I've moved onto "Step 3: Configure X"...
I have a concern though... Didn't nVidia already make a "xorg.conf" file in the previous step when i installed nvidia drivers? If I follow the instructions in the new steps (Step 3), I creat a new file at /root/xorg.conf.new using the "Xorg -configure" command. This new file has some similar entries to /etc/x!!/xorg.conf as well as many more new ones.
What shall I do with these two files? add everything from xorg.conf.new to the xorg.conf created by nvidia-xconfig? Carefully place certain entries from one into the other? I've backed up the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file in case i do something horrible
I'm not a master of linux (i have just started my first class) but I believe I see some entries that might be conflicting if I combine the files:
For example, both files have Section "InputDevice" and in either of these sections there is Identifier "Mouse0"
However, one has option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
while the other has option "Device" "/dev/psaux"
So the two settings are obviously not identical.
The next thing the Begginer's Guide says to do is copy the new file to the old file:
cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Is this a problem? Will I loose all my nvidia settings if I do this? Can i just put both files together using the "cat" command? Or do I have to manually pick and select the correct values to have in the final /etc/X11/xorg.conf file?
Won't this over write the configurations that the nvidia drivers wrote to /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
Shall I use the cat command to combine the files?
Side note: The computer freezes on a black screen when testing out the xorg.conf.new file with the following command:
X -config /root/xorg.conf.new
it also freezes on a black scren when testing out the real xorg.conf file with the following command:
X -config /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Perhaps these tests are premature at this stage until my settings are finalized?
Can someone tell me what to do with these two files, as the Beginner Guide doesn't (and it's a beginner guide!)?
In the meantime, I will now attempt to combine the two files (no worries though, I've backed up my files).
Last edited by trusktr (2010-02-19 07:24:26)

X doesn't need much information in the config file. Here's my one if you want to try it out (I also have an nvidia card):

[MAX] Problems setting the size of my PCI user window

Ok, this may be a very dumb question but I'm just starting to use MAX so please bear with me.
On my VXI system I need to change the size of the PCI user window from it's default 64KB to 16 MB. Therefore, under MAC I went to the PCI setting tab and tried to change it to the desired size. Everytime I try to change it it shows the following message:
"Unable to save configuration changes.
Unable to access configuration information
[-405]"
I guess this means that the configuration file that stores this value in either corrupted, missing, etc. Or that I cannot change that window size in my current system. Does anybody have an idea on how to solve this little problem? thank you.

Hello!
I have a few questions about your configuration. What Operating System are you using? If it is Windows NT/2000, are you logged into an administrator account? If not, do you still get that error when logged in to an administrator account? Also, what VXI controller and version of NI-VXI are you using?

Weblogic & JNDI Data Source with proxy user.

We're trying to use Oracle proxy user authentication on a data source configured in WebLogic 10.3.6, however, we want to approach it in a programatic way. So we want to obtain the DataSource, and set the proxy related properties inside the application.
We came up with the following snippet:
Hashtable<String, Object> env = new Hashtable<String, Object>();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "t3://10.1.1.10:7003");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "weblogic");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "weblogic");
Context context = new InitialContext(env);
javax.sql.DataSource ds = (javax.sql.DataSource) context.lookup("ds_puser");
OracleConnection oconn = (OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
The problem comes up when we try to cast the connection to OracleConnection, the thing is that the returned type is actually a 1036_WLStub.
How can we avoid that type or cast to it to something useful? I found this reference on Oracle forums and he's being able to cast it directly:
Re: My problem in using weblogic Datasource and proxy user
Can someone help us out?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Edited by: 990800 on 27-feb-2013 13:26

A DataSource is an Interface. What the code gets from the jndi tree is some concrete object that
the code doesn't need to know the name of, or anything specific about it, as long as it implements
the DataSource Interface, which it successfully casts to, to allow calling the methods defined in the
DataSource Interface. If you call for a plumber, you don't need to know his name as long as you
can get a plumber, and can call the "Fix this leak" method, defined in the Plumber Interface.

[SOLVED] How cat I make an http proxy from ssh?

Hi.
I can tunnel to ssh server using this:
ssh -N -D $myport $user@$serverip
It's working good. I tunneled to the server.

You can't. What you can do is run a local http proxy that uses the ssh-created Socks5 as parent. Example config for polipo:
daemonise=true
proxyAddress=127.0.0.1
proxyName=localhost
allowedClients=127.0.0.1
socksParentProxy=localhost:7777
socksProxyType=socks5
7777 is an example, use $myport there. The default polipo port is 8123, meaning apps should be configured to use localhost:8123 as proxy.
Thanks for your help! It's worked very good and my problem is solved.

[SOLVED] a problem with gpg-agent and ssh keys

I'm baffled by a strangle problem:
My setup is as follows: I use gpg-agent with --enable-ssh-support, so that my ssh keys are handled by it. All was fine (when I ssh'ed to another machine, a pinentry window popped up, asked for a password, and if I entered the correct one, gpg-agent would decrypt its copy of my private ssh key and use it for identification). But: I needed to change my ssh key, and so I generated a new one. Next, I ssh-add'ed it to gpg-agent (one password to decrypt the private key, then twice another password for gpg-agent). I uploaded the public key to a server. The setup should be complete.
The problem is that when I ssh to a machine, a pinentry window comes up, but it does not accept my password (the one that I entered twice when ssh-add'ing the key). I tried adding with various different passwords (always deleting ~/.gnupg/private-keys-v1.d/*, since 'ssh-add -d ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub' would not work for some reason - it would not make gpg-agent forget the key), different pinentry programs ( -qt4, -gtk-2, -curses), and still the same problems. Pinentry itself seems to work fine, since if I enter two different things when it asks for a new passphrase for the key, it detects that there's a problem.
So, can anyone help? What could I try (please don't post just to say that I could/should use ssh-agent, or keychain, or anything else. I have used various things, and I like this setup the most. It worked before, and I would like to find out why it stopped working and how to get it back to speed.)
Thanks.

Thats a known bug with the new gpg version.

You could use an older version of gpg or use a development version.

Setting proxy-user credentials

Hi!
I'm trying to make database reads through the proxy account ('main' proxy user)
and writes through 'normal' proxy user depending on what user is logged in application and make this writes. Proxy user is authenticated by name and password.
1) I've created accounts for proxy users in Oracle DB.
2) I've implemented session event handler for the preLogin event like in the reference:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/toplink/doc/1013/main/_html/dblgcfg008.htm
3)Then I need to acquire all client sessions of any logged in application user
with their own proxy-user credentials, but
a) there is no such event as preAcquireClientSession;
b) when this is done in postAcquireClientSession it has no effect (all writes are performed by the 'main' proxy user).
How to solve 3)? Is there any class or event in TopLink where I can set proxy-user credentials?
Hints or ideas will be so helpfull.
By the way, I'm using TopLink 10.1.3, Spring 2.0.

Thanks for reply. I've already read that, very usefull thread. But before today I could not get where interaction with server is.
Now I think I should investigate in org.springframework.orm.toplink.TopLinkTransactionManager, the key to solve my problem not only in TopLink but in Spring also.

Problem setting up WDS with MSI RG54GS2 & Motorola WR850g

Problem setting up WDS with WR850g & MSI RG54GS2
Hi,
I'm trying to bridge 2 routers: Motorola WR850g & MSI RG54GS2 .
I set the MSI as the main router (it works better for me as a router than the Moto), and the Moto is the repeater. I have set it up exactly as the guide on Broadbandreports.com for the Motorola , and on Tom's Networking http://www.tomsnetworking.com/2004/04/14/how_to_wds_bridge/
The Moto sees the MAC of the MSI (Status is UP), the MSI doesn't have a page that shows WDS MACs . I know the routers are connected because when I connect a laptop to the Moto wireless network, it gets an IP (and the DHCP on the Moto is disabled) and the default gateway of the connection is the IP of the main (MSI) router.
The problem is I can't surf anywhere. I can't even ping the MSI router - which should be possible if the WDS works properly.The Moto Wireless Bridge Operation is set properly to Access Point/Wireless Bridge .
Can anyone solve this?
Thanks.

David, welcome to the discussions.
Are you refering to Airport Extreme Setup as the Extreme base.
Or are you using a 3rd party Router as your primary Base, or the Express as the primary base.
Read the supplied link, Not all 3rd party routers are WDS compatible.

2. Created a database user, sbrower
CREATE USER SBROWER IDENTIFIED BY <password> DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP PROFILE DEFAULT ACCOUNT UNLOCK ;
GRANT DBA TO SBROWER;
ALTER USER SBROWER DEFAULT ROLE ALL;
GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO SBROWER;
ALTER USER SBROWER QUOTA UNLIMITED ON USERS;
3. Connected to the database as SYS and granted sysoper to SBROWER
4. Using putty, ssh'ed into the server where the database resides.
5. Set the oracle variables (ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_BASE, etc.) and PATH
6. Was able to connect to the database using sqlplus / as syoper
THE PROBLEM
For another user, EA_RDX_ORACLE1, I follow the same steps (2-6) bu when I execute step 6, it does not allow the connection
ERROR:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
   but, if I use sqlplus ea_rdx_oracle1/thepassword as sysoper it works
Looking at v$pwfile_users on the database:
USERNAME SYSDBA   SYSOPER      SYSASM
SYS      TRUE      TRUE      FALSE
SBROWER FALSE     TRUE      FALSE
EA_RDX_ORACLE1 FALSE TRUE FALSE
3 rows selected.
There is one thing that is different for the ea_rdx_oracle1 id's:
- The users who use this id, use a took called CyberVault to check out the id. The password for the id changes each time the id is checked out; however, the way the id is set up on the DB servers, us user does not have to enter the password when they log in (ssh).
I have sent an email to our unix admin asking his how the id was set up so that it can ssh into the server. It is not included in the list of users in any group in the /etc/ogroup file and it is not included in the /etc/opassword file.

The OS authentication ( sqlplus / as sysdba ) does not require the password file.
The problem may be related to the OS user you are connecting to that server - it is not a member of OSDBA group ( usually DBA ).
