Restart postfix with: postfix reload Restart dovecot with /etc/init.d/dovecot stop / start
I cleared the TLS error in postfix/main.cf - you had just accidentally changed smtpd_tls_key_file to smtpd_tls_key
Lol.
[ ] Get the dovecot TLS smtp thing working
[ ] Get the emails to postmaster stopped [ ] Move this document to ~denny/solaris/ where all the other sysadmin notes for mercury are.

Drupal Notes:
drupal7 (7.14-2+deb7u1) unstable; urgency=high
In order to avoid a remote code execution vulnerability (described in https://drupal.org/SA-CORE-2013-003), it is recommended to create a .htaccess file (or an equivalent configuration directive in case you are not using Apache to serve your Drupal sites) in each of your sites' "files" directories (both public and private, in case you have both configured).
This file's contents should include the following declarations:
# Turn off all options we don't need.
Options None
Options +FollowSymLinks
# Set the catch-all handler to prevent scripts from being executed.
SetHandler Drupal_Security_Do_Not_Remove_See_SA_2006_006
<Files *>
# Override the handler again if we're run later in the evaluation list.
SetHandler Drupal_Security_Do_Not_Remove_See_SA_2013_003
</Files>
# If we know how to do it safely, disable the PHP engine entirely.
<IfModule mod_php5.c> php_flag engine off
</IfModule>
You will find a copy of this file in
/usr/share/doc/drupal7/files.htaccess, but, as it's not in a
Debian-controlled directory (but on a local one), we cannot install it
for you.-- Gunnar Wolf <gwolf@debian.org> Wed, 20 Nov 2013 19:17:41 -0600
mysql-5.5 (5.5.33+dfsg-0+wheezy1) wheezy-security; urgency=high
mysql-server-5.5 ships with the upstream mysql_install_db script which creates a database "test" and sets up permissions that allow anonymous access, without a password, from localhost to the "test" database and any databases starting with "test_" that users might have created after installing mysql-server.
During the migration of mysql-5.1 to mysql-5.5 in Debian the patches to drop these permissions and the creation of the test databases were not applied. This update resolves this issue for new installations of mysql-server-5.5.
If you are updating from a previous version of mysql-5.5 it isrecommended to check your installation and to drop these privileges and databases manually.
Further information can be found at the MySQL 5.5 Reference Manual[1].

samba (2:3.6.6-6+deb7u10) wheezy-security; urgency=high
This Samba security release addresses both Denial of Service and Man in
the Middle vulnerabilities. A significant number of patches were back-ported, and in some areas
of winbindd the behaviour is now more like Samba 4.2 than 3.6 This new security patch implements new smb.conf options and a
number of stricter behaviours to prevent Man in the Middle attacks
on our network services, as a client and as a server. Between these changes, compatibility with a large number of older
software versions has been lost in the default configuration.See the release notes in WHATNEW.txt for more information.
Here are some additional hints how to work around the new stricter default behaviors:
* As a File Server, compatibility with the Linux Kernel cifs
client depends on which configuration options are selected, please
use "sec=krb5(i)" or "sec=ntlmssp(i)", not "sec=ntlmv2". * As a file or printer client and as a domain member, out of the
box compatibility with Samba less than 4.0 and other SMB/CIFS
servers, depends on support for SMB signing or SMB2 on the
server, which is often disabled or absent. You may need to
adjust the "client ipc signing" to "no" in these cases. However, all of these can be worked around by setting smb.conf
options in Samba, see the 4.2.0 and 4.2.11 release notes (because
many of the fixes are backported from there) at
https://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-4.2.0.html and
https://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-4.2.11.html and the
Samba wiki for details, workarounds and suggested
security-improving changes to these and other software packages.New smb.conf options and defaults:
* raw NTLMv2 auth = no
* allow dcerpc auth level connect = noSuggested further improvements after patching:
It is recommended that administrators set these additional options,
if compatible with their network environment: server signing = mandatory
ntlm auth = no
client signing = mandatory Without "server signing = mandatory", Man in the Middle attacks
are still possible against our file server and
classic/NT4-like/Samba3 Domain controller. (It is now enforced on
Samba's AD DC.) Note that this has heavy impact on the file server
performance, so you need to decide between performance and
security. These Man in the Middle attacks for smb file servers are
well known for decades. Without "ntlm auth = no", there may still be clients not using
NTLMv2, and these observed passwords may be brute-forced easily using
cloud-computing resources or rainbow tables. Without "client signing = mandatory" we will not be able to detect
a MitM attack between our client tools or winbindd and the server or
AD DC. Later versions of Samba implement additional features
to protect these communications. Setting this option may however
disable connections to servers that have smb signing disabled (the
default, as above).wget (1.13.4-3+deb7u2) stable-security; urgency=high
From 18b0979357ed7dc4e11d4f2b1d7e0f5932d82aa7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Darshit Shah <darnir@gmail.com> Date: Sun, 07 Sep 2014 19:11:17 +0000 Subject: CVE-2014-4877: Arbitrary Symlink Access Wget was susceptible to a symlink attack which could create arbitrary files, directories or symbolic links and set their permissions when retrieving a directory recursively through FTP. This commit changes the default settings in Wget such that Wget no longer creates local symbolic links, but rather traverses them and retrieves the pointed-to file in such a retrieval. The old behaviour can be attained by passing the --retr-symlinks=no option to the Wget invokation command.

apache2 (2.2.22-13+deb7u2) stable; urgency=medium
* This release adds support for SSL/TLS ECC keys and ECDH ciphers.
If this change causes problems with some older clients, see
/usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian.gz for a work-around.-- Stefan Fritsch <sf@debian.org> Sun, 25 May 2014 13:05:40 +0200
php5 (5.4.45-0+deb7u2) wheezy-security; urgency=medium
* PHP 5.4 has reached end-of-life on 14 Sep 2015 and as a result there
will be no more new upstream releases. The security support of PHP
5.4 in Debian will be best effort only and you are strongly advised
to upgrade to latest stable Debian release that includes PHP 5.6 that
will reach end of security support on 28 Aug 2017.-- Ond?ej Sur? <ondrej@debian.org> Sun, 04 Oct 2015 17:05:37 +0200
php5 (5.4.4-14+deb7u9) stable; urgency=medium
* The default PHP FPM socket permission has been changed from 0666
to 0660 to mitigate security vulnerability (CVE-2014-0185) in PHP
FPM that allowed any local user to run a PHP code under the active
user of FPM process via crafted FastCGI client. The default Debian setup now correctly sets the listen.owner and
listen.group to www-data:www-data in default www pool configuration
(/etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.conf). If you have more FPM instances or
a webserver not running under www-data user you need to adjust the
configuration of FPM pools in /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/ so the accessing
process has rights to access the socket.-- Ond?ej Sur? <ondrej@debian.org> Mon, 12 May 2014 14:23:05 +0200
