mariadb ldap auth
Hi, I have installed mariadb and configured pam authentication, and configured a mysql pam module like this: /etc/pam.d/mysql auth required pam_winbind.so account required pam_winbind.so which basically gives my samba winbind users access to mysql with their windows credentials: root@mysqlserver:~# mysql -udomain_username -p Enter password: Welcome to the MariaDB monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MariaDB connection id is 6 Server version: 10.1.26-MariaDB-0+deb9u1 Debian 9.1 Copyright (c) 2000, 2017, Oracle, MariaDB Corporation Ab and others. Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the current input statement. MariaDB [(none)]> So I was happy. But this seems to work only from the localhost mariadb is running on. Trying this from a remote mysql client gives: user@e7470 ~ $ mysql -udomain_user -p -h mysqlserver.full.address Enter password: ERROR 2059 (HY000): Authentication plugin 'dialog' cannot be loaded: /usr/lib/mysql/plugin/dialog.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory and searching for /usr/lib/mysql/plugin/dialog.so gives no results: user@e7470 ~ $ dpkg --search /usr/lib/mysql/plugin/dialog.so dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern /usr/lib/mysql/plugin/dialog.so user@e7470 ~ $ Anyone here with a good suggestion how to achieve this from a remote mysql client?

changing the desktop environment
hello, It is a long time since I fiddled with the display. is buster. there are the names display manager which is lightdm desktop environment which is mate and window manager which I think is part of mate If I want to change desktop environment do I need a window manager ? I'm not seeing anything looks like a window manager in output of "ps ax" How do I change desktop environment ? Is it "update-alternatives --config x-window-manager" just asking because I don't want to bugger it up mick -- Key ID4BFEBB31

Sid: pulseaudio & xfce4
Hi there, I figured out that I do not have sound in some applications because pulseadio is not running. To fix the problem it's enough to open terminal and issue pulseaudio command. I'm using xfce4. What is the proper way of automatically start pulseaudio? Should I add a new item to the Application Autostart?? Is there any package responsible for starting pulseaudio? -- Pozdrawiam Grzesiek Wysłane z kompa wolnego od wirusów Billa Gatesa.
Encrypted e-mails?
We have more focus on Internet security now, than 5-10 years ago. We have smartphones with software from Apple and Google, but we are unsure if they look in our data. We use Facebook and we know they sell info we share to other companies. Each day we use Internet and visit websites, but behind we find trackers that register our visit. It is now more common than before to use HTTPS for a website to protect traffic against data sniffers. But it is still very common to send unencrypted e-mails, open post cards. So why not use OpenPGP to encrypt e-mails, it is free, I am trying to find out how to? With OpenPGP you create a personal keypair, a secret and public key. You send public key to friends, and they can encrypt e-mails to you, but only you can open with secret key. My primary e-mail is based on webmail with SquirrelMail on own private web server. A plugin named G/PGP Encryption is available, but not updated since 2007. Written in PHP, interfacing with GnuPG, I found that it not work on Debian Stable Linux and PHP 7.0. But after hunting bugs, I have been able to fix it to send encrypted e-mails between users within my server, not perfect, but working. Now thinking about coding a new plugin. In case I get it working, then I need friends outside my server to use OpenPGP also. To my knowledge it is not available very many places. You normally get free e-mail without encryption, without encryption easier for microsoft or google to look in your e-mails. A week ago I got mail from google, that they now automatic add appointments from my google e-mail to my google calendar. I had then received copy of a hotel reservation from a friend, and suddenly google added this as my hotel reservation. So google in fact monitor my e-mails, scary, but not easy to have Android smartphone without google account. With https://protonmail.com/ we have webmail with focus on encrypted e-mails, but it require your friends also have account there to make full use of it. We try to be secure on Internet, but still not easy to use secure e-mails??? https://www.openpgp.org/ https://squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=153

Well, you do kind of allow it by virtue of using their service. I mean, sure it's a message "destined(tm)" for you, but it's on *their* servers. Same kind of "invasion of privacy(tm)" happens in most office environments -- all the emails that you send/receive are subject to being read by your IT department if required. > > With https://protonmail.com/ we have webmail with focus on encrypted > e-mails, but it require your friends also have account there to make full > use of it.

Mostly because people don't care. They see "mail" in the name, and think it's exactly like reglar mail and no one but the intended recipient is allowed to look at it. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEBcqaUD8uEzVNxUrujhHd8xJ5ooEFAluRPX0ACgkQjhHd8xJ5 ooHxnAgAgktK7rxQJILraJuSynZqz+/GdtDaaTYpcU5WHNbISz2mbWGnyKBrDsKt P+vbVu/mGAnyGKjWiUT2jLpczNoM6MJ5d1P9v+0x1TkThk/1PcBl4xYB/E722i3s OHZdyZ1RQR6+N/LkDTJZk7Z8JpI7yEwjXQjr34R1FAFiE8Qv5969AxRUUbBhll5B rdJvTBIXdvsIpYNbs6PHEMtQsisjV+6m35pLU1wtgFGDwaiSr3DLUmjYuhy/7NeS 3nlqdWR3nbhcfPh6s1+TjW/tT4lVPkinfyAxYpgXNVTHavyhdfSidulznbtUdpum vVAi4jLM0bPqOGbdIQsOELElTKPnFQ== =vpu1 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- |_|O|_| Registered Linux user #585947 |_|_|O| Github: https://github.com/dpurgert |O|O|O| PGP: 05CA 9A50 3F2E 1335 4DC5 4AEE 8E11 DDF3 1279 A281

It costs them *money*. They offer it free in order to add value to their advertising services, which are their main business. Of course they mine Gmail for data.

Bash-Problem with cursor position after calling a function with READLINE_LINE
Hi all,
In my Bash shell (».bashrc«) I have »bind« a command to the »F1« key
bind -x '"\eOP":"_bash_man"'# F1 man
The script »_bash_man« looks like (it is simplified only for test reasons)
echo "${READLINE_LINE}"
When I type »aaa« and then press »F1«, I see a new line on the screen
containing the string »aaa« and the cursor is positioned behind the
string. The »Backspace« key is doing nothing, and pressing the four
»arrow« keys just give that result
bash^[[D^[[C^[[B^[[A
but does not move the cursor in any direction. When I press
aaa^Az»Enter«
then the output on the screen is
bash: zaaa: command not found
Apparently the cursor position is not set correctly and the cursor
movements are not done on the screen.
Technical detail:
Debian: Debian GNU/Linux 9.5.0 _Stretch_
Bash: GNU bash, version 4.4.12(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)
Any help or any information would be very much appreciated.
Cheers,
Norbert

Re: Bash-Problem with cursor position after calling a function with READLINE_LINE
Hi, i replayed this on Jessie. I get printed lines "aaa" for every F1 i press. No shell prompts get printed inbetween, but rather the shell prompt and the text "aaa" stay in the base line of the xterm. The text "aaa" can be edited and the new text gets printed with F1. Like after three times pressing F1: $ aaa aaa abc $ abc (This brings F1 back to normal: bind -x '"\eOP"': ) If not your other commands in the script are to blame, then maybe your terminal ? I use /usr/bin/xterm (which refuses to tell me its version). Have a nice day :) Thomas

dhcp service problem on stretch
Hi,
Just installed my first stretch server using the 9.5 DVD1, installed the normal
system environment, no desktop just a ssh server, and added the isc dhcp server.
I transferred my original dhcpf.conf file, stripped what I did not need in the
new environment and expected no problems. However...
It seems the dhcp service does not want to start but I have no idea why.
I have stripped my dhcpd.conf down to barely nothing and a regular test gives
no errors but the service refuses to start, why?
Testing the config, no error

linom1:~# /usr/sbin/dhcpd -t -cf /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf

Job for isc-dhcp-server.service failed because the control process exited with
error code.
See "systemctl status isc-dhcp-server.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
And just for the fun of it, the /etc/dhcpd/dhcpd.conf file
linom1:~# cat /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf

option domain-name "tio.nl";
# Dyanamic range
range 172.16.73.200 172.16.73.240;
}
}
And the 172.16.72.0/23 network is definitely in range for this dhcp server

I always have a command running (started in ~/.xsession): $ yes | bt-obex -s /tmp/ The idea is that I don't have to intervene on the PC to transfer a file to it (or even be in the same room necessarily). I should point out that the /tmp/ argument is ignored in stretch; files arrive in ~/.cache/obexd/ regardless. To send files from the PC, I use the command $ bt-obex -p galaxy path/to/file where galaxy is the bluetooth name of the device. In this case, I obviously have to remember to turn bluetooth on in the device. (Leaving bluetooth on will discharge the battery more quickly.) I haven't had much success with bt-obex -f (ie the FTP service) so I don't bother with that. One wrinkle when pairing: to get the bluetooth name of the device sent to the PC, the device should be paired while it is visible to other devices (rather than hidden). Otherwise it will still pair, but without setting a name, so to send files to the device you have to use its MAC (long and unmemorable) rather than its name (memorable and short). And finally, this method does not work (on an older laptop) in jessie: it refuses to make itself discoverable. It still works with wheezy, which runs using the older method, bluetooth-agent. Cheers, David.

I assume that your dhcpd.conf is OK, so the problem should solve itself via simple: service isc-dhcp-server stop service isc-dhcp-server start service isc-dhcp-server status Reco

Do what it says about /etc/default/isc-dhcp-server. I'll make a guess that the ethernet interface(s) now have different names and you need to modify the file to suit, or the file may even have no interfaces listed. I'm assuming you've done the same in the dhcpd.conf. I've just hit the same thing, switching an obsolete drive into an old machine to boot it for the last few times, and found that it insists on calling the two ethernets eth2 and eth3, instead of 0 and 1 as in the previous hardware. Yes, I know why, it's just a nuisance. -- Joe
NFS mounts failing at boot (stretch)
I've got an NFS mount on a Debian 9 box which is failing to mount at boot time, but mounts cleanly and quickly once the system is up and running. I've added the _netdev option to fstab, which according to mount(8) should cause the mount attempt to be delayed until the network is up, but that doesn't seem to have helped. 192.168.1.36:/pool3 /data/pool3 nfs _netdev,rw,nolock,nfsvers=3 0 0 I've done some googling on the subject, and all the results I've found are either assertions that _netdev should do the trick, or reports of it not working. The only case I've found of someone making it work is the unacceptable workaround of adding the mount to /etc/rc.local. Does anyone know if the _netdev option is actually expected to work in Debian 9, and if not, what the proper way to set an NFS mount at boot actually is? Thanks.

I have tried »xterm«, »uxterm«, and »xfce4-terminal«. The behavior was identical in all three terminals. Cheers, Norbert --
