Hi, I also think such a list would be very useful to have and have many happy subscribers :) IMO it would also be enough, if it had the same restrictions as debian-devel-announce: every DD can post signed mails there (and therefore DDs can also sign+post someone elses mails). Should hopefully be easy to implement and DDs should be responsible enough not to abuse debian-edu-announce. regards, Holger pgp7Tmj2v0nGF.pgp Description: PGP signature

Bug#427218: [D-community-discuss] Sugestion for a new mailing list
Hi, On Monday 20 August 2007 15:03, Andrei Popescu wrote: A [EMAIL PROTECTED] list has been requested by me (#425439) and Martin Joey Schulze (#427218), but nothing has happened yet. Maybe the project could start one and migrate later to lists.d.o if it attracts sufficient interest. I think this could also be an opportunity to attract some very valuable subscribers from debian-user. If you read d-u you might remember the big discussion around offtopic posts a few months ago. As a result the offtopic discussions have dropped to almost zero. This is not a bad thing considering the high volume of d-u, but IMHO it's missing the community spirit and this is what we are trying to promote, isn't it? ;) I'd agree that we could technically easily host that mailinglist as part of the d-community project on alioth, but I wonder whats the debian listmasters final decision is on this, as I dont think it's wise to create this mailinglist on alioth now and then move it to lists.debian.org in a short timeframe. So, debian-listmasters, what's your stance? FWIW, I support the idea of such a mailinglist, even if I wont subscribe. And, as I understand it, this mailinglist should be about offtopic stuff, but this doesnt mean it should be used for flaming or other behaviour which is against the code of conduct for the debian mailinglists. regards, Holger pgpswLTdL7uK7.pgp Description: PGP signature

Hi, I guess this bug does not depend on the version of klogd, I can reproduce with 1.4.1-18 on some machines too, while not on others. It happens with klogd 1.4.1-18 (etch userland vserver) on 2.6.18-5-vserver-powerpc (etch host). But not in an etch userland on a sarge host, runnning 2.6.18-4-vserver-amd64 from bpo. And also not in an etch userland, on a sarge host, running a selfbuild 2.6.18-1-vserver-686.

Hi, On Tuesday 23 October 2007 22:14, Joey wrote: I would not recommend considering this wikipedia page an authoratitive reference for what can and cannot be used for symlink attacks. Right. Nonetheless I found it useful to quickly point out the problem, even if the solution is not optimal. It's much simpler and better to simply use security best practices that avoid such attacks alltogether. For example, make sure that temp files are opened with O_EXCL and symlink attacks become impossible. Never using mode 777 directories, and at least using +t on shared temporary directories such as /tmp is another such best practice that avoids a whole class of security problems. Does the (testing) security team have a comprehensive page with security best and worst practices?

Bug#405588: ITP: batman - better approach to mobile adhoc networking
Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2007-01-04 Severity: wishlist * Package name : batman * Version : 0.1 * Upstream Authors : Thomas Lopatic, Corinna 'Elektra' Aichele, Axel Neumann, Felix Fietkau, Marek Lindner * URL : https://www.open-mesh.net/batman * License : GPL2 * Copyright (c) 2006 Thomas Lopatic, Corinna 'Elektra' Aichele, Axel Neumann, Felix Fietkau, Marek Lindner Description : better approach to mobile adhoc networking B.A.T.M.A.N is a new approach to Ad-Hoc-Routing, unlike other algorithms that we are aware of. Reactive MANET protocols search for routes when a node initiates communication to a remote node. Proactive protocols (all link-state algorithms and some distance-vector algorithms) calculate routes proactively from all nodes to all nodes in the mesh-cloud, whether they are necessary or not - while reactive protocols search for routes on demand. B.A.T.M.A.N doesn't calculate or search for routes - it continuously detects the existence of routes by forwarding and receiving broadcast packets, and it proactively populates the routing-table with nodes in the mesh. The algorithm does not try to find out which path packets follow to a remote node. B.A.T.M.A.N merely checks which single hop neighbor it has to send a package to in order to push it on the best way to a node in the mesh. I'm in contact with upstream and we agreed that I'll wait until version 0.2 before releasing a first package. Then I'll also make the package description more useful. regards, Holger pgp9CyfRBNFty.pgp Description: PGP signature

have you checked the md5sum against the one for the day your image is
dated? (you can find older dailies by cutting back the image url to remove
the current and everything before it and browsing manually from there)
i'm thinking this may be another case of a half and half download (half one

Bug#400122: sends unneccessary OK-summaries
package: munin
version: 1.2.3-1
Hi,
first of all, let me say, that munin is great!
But I have one problem: I use the smart plugin to monitor my harddiscs and
every day shortly after 10:00 (AM) I get an email:
$domain :: $host :: S.M.A.R.T values for drive hda
OKs: Spin_Retry_Count is 100.00, Seek_Time_Performance is 100.00,
Raw_Read_Error_Rate is 100.00, Seek_Error_Rate is 100.00,
Reallocated_Sector_Ct is 100.00, Spin_Up_Time is 98.00,
Power_Off_Retract_Count is 100.00, Throughput_Performance is 100.00,
Load_Cycle_Count is 100.00.
This is because smart does a selftest.
I have the following settings in smart.conf:
contacts me
contact.me.command mail -s Munin notification ${var:host} [EMAIL PROTECTED]
contact.me.always_send warning critical
in plugin-conf.d/munin-node:
[smart_*]
user root
group disk
And I'm running debian/sarge.
After sending this mail to the munin-users mailinglist, I learned that these
mails are send by this entry in /etc/cron.d/munin:
10 10 * * * munin if [ -x /usr/share/munin/munin-limits ];
then /usr/share/munin/munin-limits --force --contact nagios --contact
old-nagios; fi
I have now disabled these summary-mails (as I'm fine with the actual alarm
mails anyway), but this is defintly a bug: a OK-summary should not be send
without a warning alarm, which I never receive(d).
This happened on three different hosts, with similar configs, though.
regards,
Holger
