They might well just walk away from development.  They're trying to 
steer user behavior, and if they cannot do that then they may not have 
sufficient remaining motive.


In any case, I don't think that one should quit using the Gnome shell 
with the hope that they will reform and then intention of returning 
if-and-when they do.

Well, first, it would be better if there weren't a general escalation 
of insults here.


Second, you left-out the ready option of using one of the other GUIs 
already packaged for Fedora, and you left-out the option of building 
from source (not that hard, really) one of the further GUIs that are 
quite compatible with Fedora.


Gnome is not intrinsic to Fedora.  Various of us here are using 
different GUIs.  If we have a remaining problem with Fedora (as such), 
it is simply in its presentation of Gnome as the default GUI.

Build from source (which is very different from writing source code) 
is, as I said, not usually very difficult.  In most cases, it is a 
matter of executing perhaps half a dozen commands, the most complex of 
which is just an extraction from an archive.


But a number of alternate GUIs don't even require that one build from 
source (for Fedora). It's just a matter of a "yum install" or of a 
"yum groupinstall". (Examples of such GUIs are Xfce, Cinnamon, and 
LXDE.  Xfce and LXDE are designed to be fast and frugal.  Cinnamon is 
designed to take a different path from Gnome 2.6 than Gnome 3.x has.)


Moreover, once installed, these GUIs simply become further options. 
At login, one chooses which GUI one wants for the session.

You
seriously believe that I should complain to the Gnome developers
because there are people on a mailing list that is only tangentially
related to Gnome who can't stop beating a dead horse?


No.  I actually don't believe that you should complain to anyone.  I 
don't believe that you should complain to the developers of Gnome; I 
don't believe that you should complain on this list about those who 
have a problem with Gnome; I don't believe that you should complain on 
this list with those who believe that Gnome should not be the default 
choice of Fedora.  I don't see how it is that you imagine that the 
second group is beating a dead horse and yet you are not.  I don't see 
how you think that the third group is beating a dead horse.


In any event, I see the second and third groups as trying to move a 
horse whom they believe to be alive, whereas I don't know what you 
might think that you're doing, but it doesn't look like an attempt to 
be helpful.



 1. No discussion on this list will likely ever impact Gnome
development.  Go to the gnome devel list for that.


I made that point a while back, more than once.  But those in the 
third group are trying to effect Fedora's relationship to Gnome, given 
its development arc.



 2. The only likely scenario in which discussions on this list will
impact Fedora development is if one of the development team also
reads this list and takes it upon themselves to follow up on the
Fedora devel lists.


And even then, such a developer is unlikely to heed the cries.  But 
under what scenario do you imagine that people here will respond to 
_your_ demands?



 3. The vast majority of users of Fedora, whether or not they use
Gnome, could not care less about your opinions on the Gnome
development process, and do get tired of the repetition, and
telling them that it is their fault is insulting.


I'd like to see your polling data.  I'd like to see polling dats that 
shows that the majority of users _do_ care about most of the threads 
on this list.  I'd like to see polling data that shows that those 
complaining about Gnome are going to respond to your demands that they 
cease.

In Wikipedia "citation needed" is added to prove a claim.


Right; but the question was whether you were asking for a _positive_ 
proof of an _negative_ claim.



Basically a
reference to a study showing that in general GNOME developers give this
answer and secondly that XFCE as well as KDE developers don't do this.


So, it indeed appears that you were demanding a positive proof of a 
negative claim.


The claim that Gnome developers tell people to kiss off is a positive 
claim, one establishes it by pointing to an example of one of them 
doing so.


The claim that KDE and Xfce developers don't do this is a negative claim.


I think it is somewhat normal to ask for more details.


What sort of _details_ could one find in such an _absence_?


And I understand
that proving a negative is difficult (XFCE/KDE), but that should still
be possible (sampling of all the answers).


And how would one prove that the sampling were representative?

(Do note that, while I have plainly agreed with Roger and Joe about 
what has come from the Gnome developers, I have _not_ taken a position 
on whether the KDE or Xfce developers do the same thing.  I've just 
point to the active absurdity of wanting a _citation_ to prove a claim 
that they _don't_ do it.)



In this latter case, what would you do with the substantiation?  If

So in short: you have a belief, no basis for it, but cannot be bothered
to properly investigate. You make a judgement about GNOME developers,
and when someone from GNOME asks for details, there are none.


No.  In short I have a belief, and a basis for it, but don't want to 
slog back through the communications that I've read in an attempt to 
find those in which Gnome developers essentially said what Roger and 
Joe have claimed they say (Roger with approval).  And you want me to 
slog back through it without expectation of profit; you've even held 
onto the option of saying "So what?" or "Durn'd tootin'!"  Plainly 
it'd be a waste of my time.



Glad you cleared that up for me :)


Oh, I'm not trying to clear it up for you.  I'm trying to clear it up 
for anyone else who might be reading. ;-)

Not really, you need to prove in happens in general. You talked about
GNOEM developers. That is not one person, that is multiple people.


Olav, if you want me to bother to reply (beyond this), then you're 
going to have to clean-up the mess that you're creating by 
misrepresenting the stage at which remarks were made.  For example, I 
didn't make the remarks that you quote three moves back; I made them 
one move back.  If find that your latest remarks are shot-through with 
this sort of confusion.


If you turn the discussion into a rat's nest of inappropriate 
indentation (and of needlessly requoting things said a few iterations 
ago) then at best no one but you and I would bother to read, and I 
really don't write for your benefit.


Second, I suggest that, while you engage in that clean-up (assuming 
that you don't instead take the cheap out now), you reconsider your 
reliance upon straw-man argumentation.  It's pretty easy to explain 
the differences between what _I_ have actually said and the various 
things that you claim that I've said.

 Do you think that you're doing a particularly good job playing 
peace-maker, when you insist that this is simply a matter of opinion 
or that his opinion has a sound basis?


Moreover, when you refer to a "both" and "either" here, it shows that
you haven't been paying attention; there are more than two sorts of
opinions being expressed.  Now, it's perfectly all right for you not
to pay attention, but not if you're subsequently going to pop-in and
express some blanket opinion about the merits of all sides.

I suspect that you're best-off just ignoring this particular thread.

No, that wasn't my response.

If one were going to kill a snake, then I would indeed _suggest_ 
smashing its head rather than its tail, but all that presupposes that 
one should try to kill the snake.



It seemed sort of
analogous to ordering a pizza in a restaurant and realizing it has
anchovies on it.  You hate anchovies, but it was clearly labeled as
coming with anchovies.  It seems at this point you could choose to
take the anchovies off and eat the rest of the pizza.  Or you could
talk to the wait staff about resolving the issue.  Or you could
complain loudly to all the other patrons, and when the other patrons
express displeasure with your actions, tell them that it is really the
restaurant's fault.


Well, here's a rather better analogy, reworking yours:

We have a bunch of people who have been going to a pizza restaurant 
for some years.  And they find the pizza to be quite excellent.  Then, 
suddenly, it is changed.  The old sort of pizza is removed from the 
menu, and it is replaced with a new one that a contingent of 
"regulars" loathe.  So _they_ -- not just one hypothetical patron but 
a bloc of them -- begin complaining not only to the staff, but on 
Yelp! but in letters-to-the-editor.  And people who want to read 
_different_ letters-to-the-editor become annoyed, and start 
complaining about the complaining.


(Note: You don't have to read this mailing list to use Gnome, nor to 
Fedora with or without Gnome.  Analogically speaking, the complaining 
is _not_ in the restaurant.)


Of course, the restaurant has a right to change its offerings, but the 
complainers have a right to complain.  And the people complaining 
about the complaining -- well, shouldn't they know what they got 
themselves in for in reading other people's comments?


One answer to the people who don't like the pizza is to tell them to 
go somewhere else (even if there's no other pizza place in town).  One 
answer to the people who don't like the complaints about the pizza is 
to tell them to stop reading Yelp! and the letters-to-the-editor (even 
if there's nothing else to read).  And these answers aren't either/or; 
one could embrace each.


And one could embrace both of these answers, while suggesting that 
someone complaining about the complaining might do better to try to 
smash the head of a snake than to attempt to stomp on its tail.



This third option is what I find astonishingly arrogant.


Well, your attempts to interpret my psychology are grossly incompetent.

Re: what on earth is firefox up to?

On 06/30/2012 07:17 PM PM, Tom Horsley sayed:


Every time I start firefox after recent updates, top
shows it periodically taking up to 50% of the CPU
even if I'm just looking at a simple page of plain

This is ff 13.0.1 on x86_64 fedora 17.

Any clues? Anyone see anything similar?


Basically the same thing here -- FF 13.0.1 on fedora core 17 x86_64 -- 
except that CPU usage isn't maxxing at 50%; it sometimes climbs a bit 
above that.


Haven't started my i686 machine to see whether the same behavior 
occurs thereupon.

   interesting ... a (very) cursory glance suggests podman has no
docker-related dependencies, but is based on CNI? so, just to be
clear, one could play with podman with no docker-related packages
installed? that seems worth looking into.

Black bar in fullscreen video playback

[Daniel Hänßgen]

Hello,

i'm running Fedora 13 x86_64 with Gnome-Desktop on a HP nx6325 Laptop.
There are two Displays conneted.
The first is the panel in the notebook itself with a resolution 1400x1050.
The second one is connected via VGA with 1680x1050 resolution.
Laptop is left of the second monitor.

If I want to show any kind of video in fullscreen, with any kind of
player (tested with vlc, totem and kaffeine), on the second display, it
shows a bar bar on the right side.
I guess the width is the difference between the two displays. 1680-1400
= 280 pixel.

Can anyone please help?


Kind Regards
Daniel

P.S.: Sorry for my bad english...

Hello,

After wiping out my test instance and starting from scratch, it has 
become clear that the problem is related to the DNA plugin.  If i do NOT 
activate / configure the DNA plugin, then i can manipulate 
posixGroup-related entries as expected.  As soon as the plugin is 
activated and configured, the error noted above occurs.

I followed (and *cough* wrote) this document exactly :
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto:DNA

[r...@test-dma-36 dirsrv]# /usr/lib64/mozldap/ldapsearch -h localhost -p 
389 -s base -b "" "objectclass=*" | grep vendorVersion
vendorVersion: 389-Directory/1.2.5 B2010.012.2034
[r...@test-dma-36 dirsrv]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.4 (Final)

Linux 2.6.18-164.15.1.el5 #1 SMP Wed Mar 17 11:30:06 EDT 2010 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

It would seem that this is either a fault in the configuration of the 
plugin, or a bug with the plugin itself.  Has anybody else experienced 
similar behaviour ?

To clarify then, for the uids, instead of this :

dnafilter: (|(objectclass=posixAccount)(objectclass=posixGroup))

It should be this :

dnafilter: (objectclass=posixAccount)

F12: Thunderbird account creation problems

[Daniel Thurman]

I noticed that Thunderbird has added the "smart" feature
that gets "too smart" by not allowing one to add accounts
for two different servers, serving DNS and Email, and with
the same user accounts.

For example, let's say that you have MX records:
mail1.domain.com (a Windows email system/server)
mail2.domain.com (a Linux email system/server)

Attempts to add or modify one or the other accounts
results in both accounts being changed, "on the fly".

How is it possible to add these accounts?

[389-users] DNA plugin woes on a fresh centos-DS 8.1 install

[Daniel Maher]

Hello,

First off, my apologies if this is not an appropriate forum for asking 
questions related to the CentOS Directory Server.  The 389-users 
archives contain numerous messages related to this platform, so...

The situation : fresh install of CentOS 5.4 x86_64, installed the DS via 
yum from the standard repos :
# yum install centos-ds centos-ds-base nss_ldap

The DS is up and running.  I can create groups and users, run queries, 
and so forth.  I followed the following procedure to enable the DNA plugin :

Main menu of Directory Server
TAB: Servers and Applications
 ->  -> Server Group -> Directory Server
TAB: Configuration
 -> Plug-ins -> Distributed Numeric Assignment
[X] Enable plug-in
Save

I then dutifully restarted DS afterwards.

Finally, in the user creation menu, in the Posix User section, i checked 
Enable Posix User Attributes, but none of the fields were auto-populated.

Initially, i tried adding the following ldif (i realise this is for the 
Fedora DNS, but hey, i thought it'd be worth a shot) :
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/ldapserver/ldap/servers/plugins/dna/posix.ldif?view=co&root=dirsec

Unsurprisingly (?), this did not work :
ldap_add: DSA is unwilling to perform
ldap_add: additional info: Not a valid DNA configuration entry.

I read through a number of items on the subject, including the following 
notable items :
http://www.directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/DNA_Plugin
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/8.1/admin/dna.html

In section 3.6.3.1 of the Red Hat document it outlines the steps to 
activate the plug-in.  Steps 1 and 2 appear to have already been 
executed by the graphical manager, as the necessary changes are present 
in the configuration file :
/etc/dirsrv//dse.ldif

I attempted to perform step 3 (with appropriate modifications to the 
dc's).  This did not work :
adding new entry cn=Account UIDs,cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment 
Plugin,cn=plugins,cn=config
ldap_add: DSA is unwilling to perform
ldap_add: additional info: Not a valid DNA configuration entry.

(It may be worth noting that the screenshot they include at the base of 
that page bears absolutely no resemblance to that of the actual plugin.)

My questions are :
1. Is the expected behaviour of the DNA plug-in to auto-populate the 
Posix fields ?
2a. If so, how can i properly activate this functionality ?
2b. If not, does this functionality exist ?  And as a corollary, what is 
the DNA plug-in for, exactly ?
3. Should i, in fact, be attempting to use the Fedora DS offering 
instead of that included in CentOS ?  (I.e. is it « better » ?)

I am happy to provide any logs, debug output, configuration elements, etc..

Thank you for your kind consideration, and keep up the great work !

The DNA config was exactly that as specified in the Red Hat 
documentation, edited only to satisfy my local environment :

dn: cn=Account UIDs,cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment 
Plugin,cn=plugins,cn=config
objectClass: top
objectClass: extensibleObject
cn: Account UIDs
dnatype: uidNumber
dnafilter: (objectclass=posixAccount)
dnascope: ou=People, dc=,dc=
dnanextvalue: 1
dnaMaxValue: 1300
dnasharedcfgdn: cn=Account UIDs,ou=Ranges,dc=,dc=
dnathreshold: 100
dnaRangeRequestTimeout: 60
dnaMagicRegen: magic

The related error log entry :

[13/Apr/2010:15:15:05 +] dna-plugin - dna_parse_config_entry: Unable 
to locate shared configuration entry (cn=Account 
UIDs,ou=Ranges,dc=,dc=)

As you mentioned, the likely culprit was the fact that the Red Hat entry 
contains fields which are not present in my actual configuration.  This 
is entirely logical, and i should have picked up on that.

That looks quite sensible.  After editing the dnascope and dnaNextValue 
fields for my environment, i was successfully able to add this config entry.

adding new entry cn=Account UIDs,cn=Distributed Numeric Assignment 
Plugin,cn=plugins,cn=config
modify complete

When i use the console to add a new user, it expects there to be a value 
in three fields : UID Number, GID Number, and Home Directory.  The 
console will not create the entry if those fields are empty.  If i 
manually add numerical values into the UID or GID field, slapd crashes 
instantly - and i do mean instantly, as there are no log entries at all.

At ~ 09:28, i attempted to add the user entry as described above.  At ~ 
09:29 i manually restarted the dirsrv service.  As you can see, there 
are no long entries related to the interaction or the crash.  The access 
log is silent on this event as well.

Ths console states only the generic « Cannot connect to the LDAP server 
» error message.

I can repeat this error condition consistently.  Should i file a bug 
report ?

Fair enough.  I assumed that the document entitled « DNA Plugin Proposal

It should be as easy as creating two separate entries and then 
integrating them both, yes ? ex. :

dn: cn=UID, cn=DNA
   ...
dnatype: uidNumber
dnamagicregen: 9
dnanextvalue: 1000
dnafilter: (objectclass=posixAccount)
   ...

AND

dn: cn=GID, cn=DNA
...
dnatype: gidNumber
dnamagicregen: 9
dnanextvalue: 1000
dnafilter: (objectclass=posixGroup)
...

Or, should i be creating the two separate entries, but using the 
combined filter range (i.e. 
(|(objectclass=posixAccount)(objectclass=posixGroup)) ), as you indicate 
below ?

Is that not what i attempted to do (and what is outlined in the spec 
doc) ? :

 >> objectClass: top

 >> dnamagicregen: 9
 >> dnafilter: (|(objectclass=posixAccount)(objectclass=posixGroup))
 >> dnascope: dc=example,dc=com
 >> dnanextvalue: 1000

Note the dnafilter line, which contains the range you specified above.

In any case, thanks for your commentary and input on this topic thus 
far.  In our environment, the DNA plugin is the « killer app » that we 
needed in order to get a Directory Server deployment going. :)

As there is little interest in guaranteeing a coherence between the uid 
and gid fields (i.e. they should exist, but do not need to be the same), 
creating two identical ldifs with the strings "uid" and "gid" used 
respectively was all that was required.

Thank you again for taking the time out to explain some of the ins and 
outs of using the plug-in.  Here's hoping that some documentation will 
be forthcoming ; out of curiousity, who is responsible for writing such 
things ?  Is it a Red Hat official of some type, or can any community

I would wager that the problem is that that you haven't got the repo set 
up in your Yum configuration.

FWIW we use iptables to block access to the unencrypted port (save for a 
handful of special cases).  It works well, is easy to understand and 
maintain, and doesn't require mucking with the 389 application at all. 
It's a clean solution, imho.

Marko,

In this case, the kernel API has not changed. The changes between 166
and 168 were to patch vulnerabilities (and some small other changes):

http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2010-September/047965.html

I believe just the glue between the kernel and the binary ATI driver
needs to be recompiled (correct me if I'm wrong).

[389-users] Performance tuning - where to begin?

[Daniel Fenert]

Hi,

I have performance problem on 389-ds server and don't really know where 
to start fine tuning.

My current setup is master (2xQuadCore, 8GB RAM), few read-only slaves.
It works (more or less) without problems, but I would like to migrate to 
multi master (2 master servers).

To check if one master will handle the whole load, I've tried switching 
clients from slaves to master one by one.

After switching clients from third slave, I've encountered weird problem 
- master was about 50% busy (looking at the cpu, no IO waits), but there 
was problem with new connections.
Looking at the network level - there was SYN from client, but no ACK 
until one or two retransmissions of SYN.

I've tried increasing thread number (from 30 to 60), but problem still 
exists.

The problem is near 400-500 connections/second. My whole load is 
~750conn/sec. Looking at the CPU usage, this server should handle the load.
It works stable with load ~300conn/sec.

There are plenty of configuration options, where should I look first?

Fedora fails to boot with systemd-journald failing

[Daniel Landau]

I posted this question on ask Fedora (
http://ask.fedoraproject.org/question/2612/fedora-fails-to-boot-with-systemd-journald-failing),
but didn't get any answer so I'm asking here also.

My computer is in a totally useless state, as I can not boot at all. What I
did was I tried to join my root, boot and home partitions into one. I
copied the files, updated the grub config and /etc/fstab and recreated the
initramfs, all this from a live Fedora environment. Now I can't boot,
instead the system hangs at an endless loop printing something like (typing
it here from memory) "[FAILED] can't start systemd journal service" over
and over again.

What can I do to fix my system?

Not really sure what you mean by this. It's name is /dev/sda5 perhaps?

Why should libs and configs care about the partitions as long as

There's no reason why you couldn't keep everything on one partition.
One possible reason could be having an ext2 boot partition and
something more exciting for the rest, but I don't think my problem is
with booting off ext4.

Ok, what I did step by step:

1. Boot into a live Fedora environment.
2. Mount all the partitions that the Fedora installer created for me,
i.e. boot, root and home
3. The home partitions was in the place I wanted it, and the correct
size so I chose it to be my new all-in-one partition.
4. I created a new directory home in my partition and moved the user's
home directories there
5. I copied everything from my root partition (except for the empty
home dir) to the all-in-one partition. I figured this should be fine,
since it wasn't running, so no dirt in proc. I'm not really sure about
whether I should have omitted something, because I'm not such an
expert.
6. In the previous step, an empty boot directory got transferred into
the partition, so I just copied the contents of the boot partition
there.
7. At this stage, the grub config was all wrong, so I updated it with
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg. It found the Fedora install
and seemed to be by all accounts fine.
8. I updated /etc/fstab from having mounts with different UUIDs to
having just /dev/sda5 at root (/), because that's what I have now.
9. Some googling/duckduckgoing led me to believe, that
systemd-journald has something to do with the initramfs, mainly
starting there. I don't really know what this means. The link is here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=835867. Also this step
didn't have any effect as far as I can tell.

And that's where I'm now. Some help would be appreciated.

Thank you for your thought out answer. I did know about some of the issues,

If the install is otherwise fine except for the bootloader, you could
boot from a live distro, chroot into the install and run "grub-install
/dev/sda". The process in steps:

1. Boot in to live environment
2. Figure out in which partitions did you install Fedora (using
gparted, fdisk, whatever you're comfortable with).
All of the following as root, so "su" or "sudo -i" depending on your environment
3. mkdir /mnt/fedora
4. mount /dev/sdaX /mnt/fedora
(4.b mount /dev/sdaY /mnt/fedora/boot)
5 mount -t proc proc /mnt/fedora/proc
6. mount -o bind /dev /mnt/fedora/dev
7. mount -o bind /sys /mnt/fedora/sys
8. chroot /mnt/fedora /bin/bash
9. grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg (check here to find out where
you should put 2's)
10. grub-install /dev/sda
11. exit
12. umount everything and reboot

If the above procedure for installing grub doesn't work, you can
download legal copies of the install isos straight from a Microsoft
contractor called Digital River, instructions in this blog post:
http://blog.ringerc.id.au/2012/05/you-can-download-legal-windows-7-iso.html.
The different isos are legal and from Microsoft and will of course do
nothing without a licence key.

I think on my Fedora 18 install the command to run was:

$ grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

While on Ubuntu the corresponding command is:

$ grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Grub is such an important part of a system, that you don't simply go and
update it for no reason. Grub version 2 is a somewhat complete rewrite and
redesign (disclaimer: I'm not an expert on Grub), so the update has led to
different names in different distros that have either allowed or not for
both to be installed at the same time (user binaries, that is, only one
actual bootloader at a time).

> Will this fix the Windoze side also?

If, and that's a big if, the only thing wrong is the boot loader then it
will. If there's something wrong with the actual files for the installation
or the partitions, then they won't get fixed.

I think this starts to delve too far into windows support for this list. I
don't know about the drivers thing, but you can't use unetbootin to make a
Windows usb stick, there is a Microsoft made Windows only software for that.

When you say schema replication is tricky because it is a “single” master, I am 
using an MMR environment where in effect every member is a master. Is this a

Yes.  That's the best way to do it.  If you make schema changes to one master, 
then make sure that all of those schema changes have been replicated to all 
servers throughout your topology, then you can make schema changes to another 
master.  Schema replication is not multi-master in the sense that you can make 
simultaneous changes to to the schema on more than one master.  You just have 
to be careful.  That's why using a single master is easier - if you always make 
changes on that one master, it should work.

OK thanks, that is the way I am planning on doing this. Just for clarification, 
the master schema server in an MMR environment is whatever one I make changes 
to, it is however prudent to make schema changes only to one server as normal 
replication rules do not apply to schema and conflicts could arise if changes 
are made to more than one master.

Right.


Custom Schema
If the standard 99user.ldif file is used for custom schema, these changes are 
replicated to all consumers.
Custom schema files must be copied to each server in order to maintain the 
information in the same schema file on all servers. Custom schema files, and 
changes to those files, are not replicated, even if they are made through the 
Directory Server Console or ldapmodify.
If there are custom schema files, ensure that these files are copied to all 
servers after making changes on the supplier. After all of the files have been 
copied, restart the server.
For more information on custom schema files, see Section 3.4.7, “Creating 
Custom Schema 
Files”<https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Deployment_Guide/Designing_the_Directory_Schema.html#Customizing_the_Schema-Creating_Custom_Schema_Files>.

That's a little bit misleading.  In order for schema changes to be replicated, 
they _must_ be changed using ldapmodify (which is what the console uses).  
Schema changes made over ldap are stored in 99user.ldif.  However, if you 
manually edit 99user.ldif, schema changes will _not_ be replicated.

That is of course unless you restart the directory services on this server, in 
the past when I’ve made changes to 99user.ldif they go into effect when I 
restart the service, is this not true anymore? I haven’t done this for a few 
years so perhaps I am remembering incorrectly.

When you make changes to 99user.ldif by editing the file, and then restart the 
server (or use the schema-reload.pl script), yes, the schema changes do go into 
effect immediately, but they are not replicated.

That is something I was unaware of, thanks for the clarification.

Also, regarding replication between 32-bit and 64-bit servers, I have been 
using my test environment for a few weeks, and have had people actively using 
it for that period of time too. No issues so far have arisen, the period of 
time from the start of this update process until the end is about a month and 
I’m worried that replication issues may arise during this time period, has 
anyone else done a similar rolling upgrade and has it caused issues in the 
past, especially using different architectures as the replicating servers?

[389-users] Named log pipe + normal access log

[Daniel Fenert]

Hi,

I'd like to log to named pipe (just like said here:
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Named_Pipe_Log_Script) for some
live analysis and ALSO log to access log as usual.
Is it possible?

I'd like to avoid logging everything via this script (I have 1GB logs
every 20 minutes in peak hours on each slave).

[Daniel Walsh]

Brent any ideas? 

BTW It is not a great idea to run many containers with SELinux
disabled.   You might want to consider turning it on.

atomic storage reset

I believe does the right thing.  It should cleanup devicemapper as well. 


BTW Could you article also explain how to use podman in place of docker
on Fedora 29. 

You could expand it to, how to convert an installed docker to a podman
configuration.

Something like

for image in $(docker image -q); do

   podman pull image docker-daemon:$image

  dockre rmi --force $image

done

atomic storage reset

rpm -e docker\*

dnf install podman-docker

If you are using overlay, then you can simply rm -rf /var/lib/docker.

If you are using devicemapper, then you should either use atomic storage
reset, or look what it is doing and then implement your own script to
cleanup the devices.

Docker has never been supported by anyone on RHEL6.  So no one to
support it, no package should exist any longer.

If this is a standard device on /dev. then using podman run --device or
podman create --device would put the device into the container.

Podman has everything that Docker has.  So yes --cap-add is supported.

RamaLama is now packaged up for Fedora.

[Daniel Walsh]

RamaLama is now available as a package for Fedora 40,41 and Rawhide. 
python-ramalama.


dnf install ramalama

You can also install it via pip/pipx from PyPi.

Try it out for your AI Inferencing needs.

How would you go about getting started on Fedora? Any context of where
the containers come from that run from the Fedora package?


The current containers come from quay.io/ramalama/*


They can be overridden via the --image flag or by editing ramalama.conf 
file.



To see how the images are built, examine the container-images subdir for 
the Containerfiles.

Problem booting Fedora 21

[Daniel Jonsson]

Hi,

I'm running Fedora 21 Workstation on a desktop and a laptop, and on both
machines I am experiencing problems trying to boot them.

The problem is that when I boot either of the computers, it gets stuck during
the Plymouth splash screen, when the Fedora logo is being filled up. It can be
stuck there for tens of minutes until I lose patience and do a hard reset on
the computer. About 1/5 of the boot attempts succeed and are very snappy, while
the other 4/5 get stuck and require a hard reset.

However, I think I have solved it on the laptop by disabling
`nfs-client.target` with `$ sudo systemctl disable nfs-client.target`, and I
suspect that it might be related to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1183321.

I tried doing the same on my desktop, but it does not seem to have made any
difference. It still requires quite a few boot attempts before it reaches the
login screen.

What I need help with is how I am supposed to proceed with debugging and
locating the cause of the problem. As far as I know a journalctl entry is not
created in `$ journalctl --list-boots` if I do a hard reset during the startup
process. And `$ systemd-analyze` does not show any strange things because
I am of course only able to execute it after a successful boot, for example on
my laptop:

  Startup finished in 1.454s (kernel) + 1.412s (initrd) + 2.608s (userspace) = 
5.475s

Do you have any suggestions for how I am supposed to proceed with the matter?

Best regards,
Daniel Jonsson

On my laptop, which I am currently on, I have only one drive with the
partitions /, /boot, /home and swap. And it boots fine after disabling
`nfs-client.target`.

I think my setup is more or less the same on my desktop with regards to its
main drive. However, I know that I have added at least one additional
partition to fstab that resides on a secondary drive. If I recall correctly
I have added two partitions, one being ext4 and one being ntfs. I will
check when I get home. Thanks for the suggestion.

What do you mean? I am not using NFS, so disabling nfs-client.target should
not cause any problems, I assume at least. NTFS is a file system and not
related to systemd.

I only had one extra ext4 partition in my fstab file which I commented out.
However, it did not make any difference with regards to be able to boot up
successfully.

It would be nice if there was a way to see the log entries after a hard
reset during the boot process. Then I assume it would be trivial to locate
the problem.

First the GRUB screen is shown with 3 different kernel versions. When
selecting one of them, the text "Ignoring BGRT: invalid status 0 (expected
1)" is displayed for a brief moment. It then switches to the Plymouth
Fedora logo. If I hit escape during its process of filling up the Plymouth
Fedora logo, it shows the same error.

installed but not installed.

[Joao Daniel]

So guys,

I need to install snort on a machine. It seems that snort need a library 
called daq and libpcap version > 1.0

[root@localhost daq-0.6.1]# find / -name *libpcap*
/usr/local/lib/libpcap.a
/usr/local/lib/libpcap.so.1.1.1
/usr/local/lib/libpcap.so
/usr/local/lib/libpcap.so.1
/lib/lib/libpcap.a
/lib/lib/libpcap.so.1.1.1
/lib/lib/libpcap.so
/lib/lib/libpcap.so.1

So I guess I have libpcap-1.1.1 installed. (Installed by untar 
./configure make make install)

When I try to install daq-0.6.1:

[root@localhost daq-0.6.1]# ./configure 
--with-mysql--enable-dynamicplugin  --with-libpcap-libraries=/lib/lib/
or
[root@localhost daq-0.6.1]# ./configure 
--with-mysql--enable-dynamicplugin  --with-libpcap-libraries=/usr/local/lib/

I got:

  ERROR!  Libpcap library version >= 1.0.0  not found.
 Get it from http://www.tcpdump.org

It is normal? What Am I doing it corret? Btw: You can notice that I 
installed twice.

Things I cant understand

[Joao Daniel]

Folks,

I'm trying to install Snort. So, the first step is update libpcap. Look 
what I have done.
1)

yum erase libpcap (to unistall old libpcap)
tar -zxfv libpcap
cd libpcap
./configure --libdir=/lib/ --bindir=/bin/
make
make install

2)

yum install ./daq.rpm

At this point I got a messagen telling that libpcap is not installed!!!

What is happening ? Did I made a mistake? Better: Why yum cant realize 
that lipcap is already installed ?

Re: Things I cant understand

[Joao Daniel]

I'm trying to install in F14, 64bits. Snorts need libpcap 
version(libpcap.1.0) >= 1. As far as I know Yum repositories do not have 
it. Just libpcap version < 1. (libpcap.0.84)

  I also have tried a simply ./configure* (without anything) then a make 
and make install but again no results.

*I guess it would put the files on /usr/lib

You could press a (if you using grub) then u should pass some parameters

How to gain performance?

[Joao Daniel]

Hi kids,

I was wondering what  more I can do to improve my computer performance.  
Look what I have done:

 Recompiled the kernel  (I have done benchmark tests and it 
really makes my computer faster.)
 Removed unused daemons from memory (Don't do any test yet)

So, basically my questions are:

I also plan to make my boot faster.  Do  guys have some suggestion?

What more can I do to improve performace?

Obs.: I'm doing it as hobby. My computer hardware is really good.

Same here. I also have no idea why it happens. Is you mouse Microsoft?

Yes, but it doesn't make sense - during normal operation master uses no 
more than 50-60 fd's.

We have tried to stop it using init.d scripts.

OK, we'll try to upgrade.

How to upgrade such complex setup?
Should we try top-to-bottom approach (master first, then L*, then S*) or 
bottom-to-top (S*, L*, master last)?
Shutting down all servers is not really an option.

SSH on Fedora 16

[Daniel Bossert]

Hi all

I did a fresh install of Fedora 16 two days ago.
Really I searched much on the internet but couldn't find any solution.

I have the problem that I only can connect locally to my PC, not from
remote with ssh.

First he denied the connection, so I went and disabled the firewall even
though port 22 was enabled..
Now I can connect, but entering the password is always the wrong one?

I checked with service sshd restart, checked chkconfig for sshd on on
runlevel 3-5..

Has anyone a solution?

Kind regards
Daniel

Are you using root or a normal user?
Root login may be disabled in /etc/ssh/sshd_config.

Yep, the -vvv option on the remote ssh and taking a look at /var/log/messages

Perhaps the sshd_config file is set to only allow public key connections?
That would certainly make a password attempt fail (and is how I have my

[Daniel Bossert]

Hello


echo 0>/selinux/enforce


doesn't work at me:
[root@merkur ssh]# echo 0 >/selinux/enforce
-bash: /selinux/enforce: No such file or directory
[root@merkur ssh]#

# Change to no to disable s/key passwords
#ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes
ChallengeResponseAuthentication no



so why are you doing this if you want password-login?

I know I had e mess... I changed to yes; even though it isn't working...

well, i read from top to post and stop after the first error

Hmm... when I install debian, then the key's are generated automatically
at boot-up. Or when I install the openssh-package, the keys are
generated right away by installing the package. It seem's to be
different to Fedora - good to know!!

HI
Why do you have 127.0.0.1 in /etc/resolv.conf? Could it be that your
computer ask himself to resolv this ip and as he can't do that then he
get to your router and ask?
Do you have the same behaviour when only your router's ip adress is in
/etc/resolv.conf?

Re: Fedora vs RHEL

[Daniel Shoemaker]

This is just my two cents.  I use Fedora on my laptop & desktop at home but
I would never use it as a server.  It is great product but it has a 6-month
release cycle which means that you only get 1 year worth of patches before
having to migrate.  CentOS has 7 years worth of patches and it is the free
version of RHEL since it is built off the RHEL source code (just without
the RHEL branding).  If it were me I would be pushing for CentOS not Fedora
unless you are prepared for annual migrations or upgrades.  Since your boss
doesn't want to pay for RHEL (which can get expensive), CentOS is the
perfect alternative.

Podman 4.0 rc2 is available in updates-testing.

[Daniel Walsh]

We would love to have people play with this and test it out.

Note: this release has breaking changes to it's API, so it will not be 
released to f35. Only to F36, but users will be able to download and use 
it on F35, we will not push it to stable though.

Manning has an early access program where you can read the first few

When starting a container which was created with F35 as user, I just get:

I've tried to solve the problem by installing crun and making sure 
runc is installed, however nothing helped-


Any idea what could be the problem?

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your hint :)

I am running with SELINUX=disabled, so I guess this is not caused by 
selinux.


I've now discarded all the old containers that were not able to start 
- however it is a bit unfortunate, the error message was so useless in 
debugging the root cause.
I really tried searching on various mailing list archives for ~2 hours 
and that error seems completly ambigous with many causes.


Thanks & best regards, Clemens


Sorry this broke, I have no idea what could cause the issue, other then 
SELinux upgrade issue.  If you are running lots of containers in 
production, I would really encourage you to enable SELinux, BTW.

Hi,
I'm a long-time Linux sysadmin but haven't done much with docker and 
containers or firewalls beyond iptables. I have inherited a fedora38 
system where another admin has installed python3-docker, but port 
8080 is now exposed to the Internet.


I have a basic iptables firewall that I set up some time ago (when 
the system was probably fedora35), but iptables also shows some 
docker rules:


# iptables -nvL|grep ^Chain|grep DOCKER
Chain DOCKER (2 references)
Chain DOCKER-ISOLATION-STAGE-1 (1 references)
Chain DOCKER-ISOLATION-STAGE-2 (2 references)

Where do these chains/policies come from? Is it also an iptables 
firewall or is it using ufw?


Why wouldn't it use firewall-cmd? Isn't that the default desktop 
firewall app now for fedora?


The docker doesn't play well with ufw or firewalld, in my experience. 
It customizes rules directly, which makes it difficult to control with 
publicly available networks.  The simplest way to do firewall 
customization is to turn off firewall customization in the docker and 
do it manually.


Firstly, update docker.service to include the following option 
(--iptables=false):


/etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/override.conf
[Service]
ExecStart=
ExecStart=/usr/bin/dockerd -H fd:// 
--containerd=/run/containerd/containerd.sock

 --iptables=false

Restart the Docker service and verify the existence of the Docker zone 
if using firewalld:


docker (active)
  target: ACCEPT
  icmp-block-inversion: no
  interfaces: br-custom1 br-custom2 docker0
  sources:
  services:
  ports:
  protocols:
  masquerade: no
  forward-ports:
  source-ports:
  icmp-blocks:
  rich rules:

Add the available docker bridge interfaces (br-custom* and docker0) to 
the docker zone.  Check if the target zone is ACCEPT instead of default.


I hope that helps.


You could always switch to using Podman, which will not open the port on 
the host by default.

Is there a Docker or Podman image around that packages up a simple

Slightly off topic.  There is NO difference between Docker and Podman

maybe via HTTPS? - I am less enthusiastic about SFTP . .


Have used snapdrop.net for this in the past, but it seems to be down

I did try that but it didn't recognise the ZT network . .

Again, late hour, I should have also mentioned that the AVC messages are
held in /var/log/audit/audit.log

You can grep on type=AVC in the file to see if you're getting the errors
that I noted.  I fixed it by following the troubleshooting advice of the
seapplet.  I had to run, as root,

  ausearch -c 'systemd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-systemd
  semodule -X 300 -i my-systemd.pp

a couple of times since there were 2 distinct AVC's   A deny on unlink
and a deny on open.

I did it this way:  stored the following to   e.g. bugfix.tt

module systemd_vnc_bugfix 1.0.0;

require {
type user_home_t;
type init_t;
class file { open read unlink };
}

#= init_t ==
allow init_t user_home_t:file { open read unlink };


This looks like the file that is labeled user_home_t is mislabeled. This 
indicates a file stored in your homedir.

I don't think systemd is open/read/unlink files in homedir.

and then

checkmodule -M -m -o bugfix.mod bugfix.tt
semodule_package -o bugfix.pp -m bugfix.mod
semodule -X 300 -i bugfix.pp

Thanks for your help, hints,
now its working with SElinux = enforcing

Greetings from Austria,
Walter

Control audio output between Line Out and Headphones

[Daniel Krebs]

Hi,
I'm struggling to configure the audio output of my Fedora 25 
installation. I'd like to find a way to easily switch between front 
audio (headphones) and line out in Gnome Shell without physically 
plugging/unplugging any jacks.


So to clarify my setup is as followed (on ASUS PRIME B350-PLUS Mainboard 
with  Realtek ALC887 Audio Codec):


* Headphones connected to the front headphone jack of my case via 
internal mainboard header


* Amplifier connected to green jack on the mainboards backpanel

When both, amp and headphones, are connected, the sound is only played 
via headphones. In the Gnome audio settings the the line out output 
device disappears and there is only the headphones output device.


Then I used alsamixer so change "Auto-Mute Mode" from [Enabled] to 
[Disabled]. This way sound is played via amp and headphones 
simultaneously. Gnome audio settings still shows only the headphones as 
output device. I can than change Volume of "Headphones" and "Front" via 
alsamixer separately to get any mute/unmute combination I want but 
obviously this is neither comfortable nor compatible with any gnome 
extensions that would let me change output easily (like 
https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/906/sound-output-device-chooser/)


I generated more Information with the alsa-info.sh script which can be 
found here: 
http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=9c9fd41a57760353f5989f85ae5b8e9185d1c2f6


Any Ideas?

Thanks

Personally, I like to use pavucontrol (Pulse Audio Volume Control).

I have 2 Audio Output Devices.  One is the built-in audio device on my
mother board, the other HDMI audio out on my nVidia card.  With
pavucontrol I can select which device I want a particular application to
use and I can mute and adjust volume individually.  My headphones are
out of order at the moment due to the cord being chewed by a cat and I
don't need itbut if I plugged it in I would have a 3rd output device
and could assign it on a per application basis.


I tried that, but with the same results. Choosing Headphones plays Audio 
on both, headphones as well as line-out. Choosing line-out plays only on 
line-out. Whats strange is, that it shows line-out as "(unplugged)" 
while actually it is plugged and plays sound..

I have my Bose speakers plugged into the line-out on the back-panel of
my tower.  In pavucontrol it shows as plugged in.  When I plugin a set
of headphones into the headphone jack at the front of the tower the
speakers cut out and the headphones are active and show active in
pavucontrol.

http://tinyurl.com/yave5h2g  has some screenshots which I think are self
explanatory.
I think it is the job of the HW to cut out the Line output when the
headphones are inserted and inform the SW.  FWIW, I'm also using KDE but
it shouldn't make a difference.


Well, I certainly agree that it is nice to have such a feature. My 
Problem is, that the 3.5 mm connectors tend to wear out quiet fast so 
I'd like to not pull them in and out multiple times a day...
A bad contact gets very annoying and is not good for amp or headphones 
either I think (you know, the loud crack when you put in the plugs while 
the amp is running)


I just tried with Windows 10 and the third Driver did it: I can switch 
between headphones and amp while both are plugged, so it's possible 
somehow..

A crude/basic workaround would be to use something like this command:
$ amixer -q set Headphone toggle && amixer -q set Front toggle

This assumes you have one of them muted and the other unmuted and
it'll simply toggle their states.

You can assign this command to a _custom_ shortcut in the
gnome-control-center -> Keyboard and assign some hotkey or key combo
to invoke it.

I see what you're doing there, yeah it really a crude workaround ;)
But I will have a look into it!
