Privacidade é uma ilusão.

Desde a época do business intelligence, do pentaho, já era possível saber
se teria filho, se tinha doença ou mesmo se ia divorciar.  Com 6 meses de

E isso era em 2005-2006.

Re: Authentication for telnet.

OK.
peter@joule:~$ grep telnet /etc/inetd.conf
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.telnetd -a user
# Restart inetd.

Then the result from telnet to localhost is in this little screenshot.
http://easthope.ca/TelnetScreenshot.jpg 

So in Debian 10 the manual for telnetd mentions -a but the screenshot 
suggests it is deprecated.

The -L parameter might work; if I can find a suitable null procedure.  Eg. 
grep telnet /etc/inetd.conf
telnet stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/in.telnetd -L /bin/null

This null is ficticious of course.  Concrete ideas welcome.

(solved) Re: Debian 10 freezes upon shutdown, reboot and logout

[Beco]

Short answer:

# apt-get install nvidia-detect

and then you install the driver it recommends after detection.

That is it.



alternative version:

the driver nouveau is broken (for my system). It not only hangs the system
during the tasks on the subject of this email, but also during init 1, init
3, a simple alt+f1 to get a tty, etc. And sometimes doing nothing, just
using the computer (say, gimp, editing an image).

To test without the necessity to change the system and risk a "blank
screen", I went in the BIOS and disabled the nvidia graphic card, letting
only the intel_integrated card running.

The system booted flawlessly, with no nouveau driver. Worked just fine.
Then I just installed nvidia proprietary on top of it, getting nouveau
automatically removed in the process.

A few boots, reboots, shutdowns and logouts after, just to be sure, and
voilà! The system is perfect.

Cheers,

Beco

Installed this package along with r-base-core.
Launched /usr/lib/rstudio/bin/rstudio.
Successfully run demo().

Stock buster 10.1, without libssl1.0.0 or libssl1.0.2.

In short, seems to work for me.

Thanks a lot for the suggestions and the details. I will try this later. 
Much appreciated.

Do you (or anyone else) have any thoughts on why this is necessary in 
Buster but wasn't in Stretch? Or is it more likely to be that the new 
cage isn't triggering a udev rule the old one was or something?

Thanks again for your help

OK it seems they think they've made a buster compatible version, but 
they evidently didn't test it very well, since the fact remains the 
program refuses to run without libssl1.0.2, which renders it unable to 
work in pure buster.

Nope, that is perfect agreement with me, not disagreement. The package 
says it needs libssl1.0.0 OR libssl1.0.2 OR libssl1.1, which allows 
buster to install it without dependency problems, using libssl1.1 to 
fulfil the dependency, but then as I said the program refuses to run if 
libssl1.0.2 is not installed, even if libssl1.1 is present. So that 
dependency info in the package is incorrect. The app actually stops with 
an error message on launch saying words to the effect of "I couldn't 
find libssl1.0.2". It then tries, presumably as a fallback, to find a 
particular version of libcrypto (I forget what version precisely) and in 
buster fails at that too. Installing libssl1.0.2 resolves the problem 
and lets the app start.

> I suggest you to update your RStudio package and to forget about

The version I downloaded is 1.2.5001, which is the latest version for 
Debian and is the version you were looking at too. As we've established 
here, the package's dependency info and the real world dependencies of 
the application are not in synch, making it APPEAR like it should work 
in buster but it does not actually work in buster. When I googled this 
problem the only solution I found was from someone else who felt, like 
me, that while installing libssl1.0.2 works, it sucks and could be 
introducing who-knows-what potential future subtle problems. Hence my 
question (helpfully answered by deloptes) about if there is a safe way 
to do that.

Obviously you are trying to build the kernel from debian source. You have to
use the original source, without the debian directory. IF there is debian
directory, it means you decided to use the Debian way.

I do not know how this code is set up, but if you download the kernel from
kernel.org, you should not be getting this message. Otherwise the link I
posted before gives a solution to the problem 

-quote-
Using your current Debian kernel configuration as a starting point

Alternatively, you can use the configuration from a Debian-built kernel that
you already have installed by copying the /boot/config-* file to .config
and then running make oldconfig to only answer new questions.

If you do this, ensure that you modify the configuration to set:

CONFIG_SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS = ""

Then just do

make deb-pkg

You could read more about the make system used by the kernel

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

or in the directory

$ less README 

so according Documentation/kbuild/kbuild.txt

Two choices here:

1) Do it Debian way, which works. Different version, different rules,
and all that.

2) Persisting in your current way, which does not.

The linux-config-4.19 package[1], it "contains the configuration files
used to build the official Debian kernel files, but without references
to Debian's signing certificates."

Could you be any more vague?

If you're using systemd, and if you set up the service as a systemd unit,
then you want "systemctl status yourservice" or "journalctl -u yourservice".

It fails at signing your kernel by Debian CA key. They don't provide it
by any package as it would beat the primary purpose of Restricted Boot
(Secure Boot in M$ speak).

This is not true at all.

To run a CGI, the web server does not need anything specific. CGI are
external programs following a specific convention (environment variables
and output). Running a CGI written in perl requires a perl interpreter,
which I doubt you can avoid on Debian anyway.

Dommage, ça aurait été pratique d'avoir des fichiers PID, pour
vérifier que l'on va bien tuer ce qu'on voulait tuer.  :(

> (Et pkill ne tue pas non plus simplescreenrecorder.)

À la lecture de pkill(1), la limite à 15 caractères proviendrait
de la façon dont sont obtenus les noms des processus, méthode
qui, j'imagine, devrait être similaire pour killall :

NOTES
   The  process name used for matching is limited to the 15
   characters present in the output of /proc/pid/stat.  Use
   the  -f  option  to  match  against the complete command
   line, /proc/pid/cmdline.

En français rapide, /proc/pid/stat tronque le nom du process à
15 caractères, et l'option -f permet de basculer sur le fichier
/proc/pid/cmdline pour contrôler le nom du process à tuer.  Du
coup, dans le cas qui nous intéresse, les commandes valides
deviennent :

$ pkill simplescreenrec
$ pkill -f simplescreenrecorder  # Notez le nom complet.

À plus,  :)

This:

Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.load
Include /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/*.conf
Include /etc/apache2/mods-available/socache_dbm.load
Include /etc/apache2/mods-available/socache_memcache.load
Include /etc/apache2/mods-available/socache_shmcb.load
Include /etc/apache2/mods-available/ssl.load
Include /etc/apache2/mods-available/ssl.conf
Include /etc/apache2/mods-available/usertrack.load
Include /etc/apache2/mods-available/rewrite.load

means you don't understand that mechanism.

Keep all the files in mods-available. Create symlinks to them
from mods-enabled when you want them to take effect.

Same approach goes for site-enabled/available and
conf-enabled/available.

Anyway: you need a perl module to run perl CGI:
libapache2-mod-perl2

and you need to enable CGI in each directory that you want it
in via something like

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/

AllowOverride None
Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
Require all granted


Jumping from Debian 4 to Debian 9 is really big; among other
things, you definitely went from a 1.x series Apache to a 2.4
series Apache.

You can omit the exit 0 if you like, but you cannot omit the shebang.

Trying to excute things on boot from /etc/rc.local

[yoda woya]

The content of my rc.local  has two lines:
/usr/local/bin/ipnat
exit 0

However on boot  /usr/local/bin/ipnat  in not executed.

How can I get debian to execute the content of my rc.local file.  BTW after
boot,  /usr/local/bin/ipnat  can be executed manually without issues.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

It's easy to get confused because your posting style is incredibly

Help us to help you.

If your SSH takes 15 seconds to connect to localhost then you have a
configuration issue. As a first guess, check you do not have it
using DNS.


If it takes that long and eventually connects likely it's something like 
sshd is trying to figure out from its config file how it is supposed to 
authenticate, can't, so tries various methods until it finds one that 
works.





"ssh -v localhost" might give you some hint as to where in the
connection/login process the time is being spent.

But because of your reluctance to tell us exactly what you're trying

theres nothing related in the logs. not for dbus, neither for 
systemd-logind. After one day or so, logins slows down extremely. Like 
30 seconds for an ssh login. Interestingly vsftp (which is also 
controlled by systemd) is still working normal.


it just "crashes" (or at least slows down significantly) silently.

Any other solution that just restaring the service daily by a cron job?

Thanks - presumably you mean /var/lib/dpkg/info/postfix.config ?

AFAICS this goes through a series of states prompting for individual 
settings from the frontend.  It explicitly does nothing except skip to 
the next state if the frontend returns code 30, meaning the setting was 
invisible/skipped.  e.g. for /etc/mailname:


  $noninteractive = (((input("high", "postfix/mailname"))[0]) == 30);
  if ($noninteractive) {
    $topstate = "relayhost";
  } else {
  # error checking
  my $mailname = lc(get("postfix/mailname"));
  fset("postfix/mailname", "changed", "true");
  ...

Therefore, is the simple answer that the use case I described is not 
supported?


I guess I could uninstall and purge the package, preseed and then 
reinstall - but that feels like a huge hack.


Alternatively, I wonder if it's plausible to make a new frontend like 
'noninteractive' which returns the current values of all settings (as if 
confirmed by human), instead of skipping them with code 30?

Brian.

Yeah, the quoting is rather messed up there.  In fact, the whole command
is rather suspect, for several reasons.  Best to discard it.

I believe the intent was to do something like this:

if pids=$(fuser /dev/dsp 2>/dev/null); then
echo "the following processes are using /dev/dsp:"
for pid in $pids; do
ps -o pid= -o args= -p "$pid"
done
else
echo "no processes are using /dev/dsp"
fi

One may adjust the ps -o options as desired.

(I wrote this for sh, not bash.  Had I written it for bash, I would have
used arrays and a dynamically generated single ps command, instead of
an unquoted list-in-a-string and multiple ps commands.)

This is correct.  Pedantry follows:

The >/dev/null redirection applies to the "simple" shell command in
which it occurs, which happens to be find.  Its position within that
simple shell command is irrelevant.  It could be at the end, at the
beginning, or somewhere in the middle.  In this case, it happens to be
in the middle.

The command is 100% equivalent to:

find junk -xdev -type f -exec md5sum '{}' \; >/dev/null

find's stdout is redirected to /dev/null, and if find happens to find
any files which meet its matching criteria, and executes md5sum to
operate on them, md5sum will inherit find's stdout, which will still
be pointed to /dev/null.

The freedom to place a redirection anywhere within a simple shell command
is why examples like this one:

[ "$i" > 5 ]

give such surprising results.  This is a simple shell command (the
command name is "["), with an output redirection in it.  It is 100%
equivalent to

[ "$i" ] > 5

which opens-and-truncates a file named "5" for stdout, then performs
a string-length test on the value of "$i".  The command's exit status
will be "true" (0) as long as "$i" is not empty.

The intended command is most likely:

[ "$i" -gt 5 ]

which treats the value of "$i" as an integer, and then checks whether
that integer is greater than 5.  It returns "true" (0) if the value is
greater than 5, returns "false" (1) if it's less than or equal to 5,
and returns a value greater than 1 (still "false") and writes an error
message to stderr if "$i" cannot be converted to an integer.

nss-ldapd and pam-ldapd only require the nslcd daemon and not "multiple
daemons".

Also the design of nss-ldapd and pam-ldapd is vastly superior over the
older nss-ldap and pam-ldap approach, as you don't need to load the
whole libldap-machine into each and every program but just the thin
libnss-ldapd library, which acts as an interface to nslcd, which does
the heavy lifting.

Added bonus: your libldap configuration does not need to be
user-readable, which is critical in case you need to use any special
admin-DN to access the LDAP server.

Sven.

Re: apache only servers text page

[Dave]

Sorry about that.

by remarking out the ForceType we are now able to view html file.

Apache is serving perl executables as actual code. ( .pl .cgi ) or files
that have the first line as

#!/usr/bin/perl

perl has been installed in correct location.

/etc/mime.types file has text/x-perl .pl   and text/x-script.perl pl

apache2.conf - has the line     Options FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI
apache2.conf - AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .sh .pl

they may be other settings we are not aware of.

should it be needed, how should we go about getting a copy of the
apache2.conf file to you, or should we just post in up on a site and
give a link to it ?

please advise.

thank you

Regenerating package configuration non-interactively?

[Brian Candler]

Hello,

After cloning virtual machines, I want to reconfigure packages in a 
fully automated fashion.  In short, I've tried using 
"debian-set-selections" followed by "dpkg-reconfigure -f 
noninteractive", but it isn't actually changing the configuration.


Here's a concrete example.

Suppose I have installed postfix, preseeded in a particular way, then I 
want to reconfigure it for a new hostname.  If I do the following 
interactively:


    dpkg-reconfigure -p high postfix

then everything is fine: I get prompted with dialogs for the new mail 
server configuration type and mailname, and then the relevant files get 
updated and written out.


    root@foo1:~# dpkg-reconfigure -p high postfix
*    changing /etc/mailname to foo2.lxd**
**    setting myorigin**
**    setting relayhost:**
**    setting inet_interfaces: all*

*Postfix is now set up with the changes above.* If you need to make 
changes, edit
    /etc/postfix/main.cf (and others) as needed.  To view Postfix 
configuration

    values, see postconf(1).
...

Now I want to do this in a non-interactive script.  So I try:

    root@foo1:~# debconf-set-selections < postfix postfix/mailname string foo3.lxd
    > EOS
    root@foo1:~# dpkg-reconfigure -f noninteractive postfix

*    Postfix configuration was untouched.*  If you need to make changes, 
edit
    /etc/postfix/main.cf (and others) as needed.  To view Postfix 
configuration

    values, see postconf(1).
    ...

Nothing is updated.  I have tried tracing the code through and I've got 
stuck.  I can see these messages come from 
/var/lib/dpkg/info/postfix.postinst.  It does some magic to check if a 
particular attribute has changed (e.g. "db_fget postfix/mailname 
changed").  The db_fget and db_fset functions are from 
/usr/share/debconf/confmodule which is doing some very low-level _db_cmd 
stuff.  It seems to be talking over FD 3 to set or test which attributes 
have changed.


My best guess is: the noninteractive frontend is saying "nope, this 
setting has not been changed".


What I'm trying to avoid is duplicating all the config generation logic 
from the postinst script.  Whereas with postfix it would be a relatively 
simple job of writing out /etc/mailname and running "postconf" for a few 
settings, with other packages it's much more tricky (e.g. 
request-tracker4 is another one I'm working on)


So in summary: is there a general way for an already-installed package, 
to tell debconf either that specific setting(s) should be considered 
changed, or to reconfigure the package from scratch as if it were a new 
installation?


Thanks,

Brian.

P.S. The authoritative documentation I found was:

https://manpages.debian.org/testing/debconf-doc/debconf.7.en.html
https://manpages.debian.org/testing/debconf/dpkg-reconfigure.8.en.html
https://manpages.debian.org/testing/debconf-doc/debconf-devel.7.en.html

The latter mentions flags (FSET/FGET), and the "seen" flag in 
particular, but not the "changed" flag.

Re: killall ne kille plus ?

[Seb]

Bonjour,


Le passage de Debian 9 à Debian 10 semble avoir modifié le comportement 
de killall. Exemple:


~>ps auxw | grep simplescreen
seb  13630  2.3  0.7 393012 64192 pts/31   Sl+  15:31   0:00
simplescreenrecorder

~>killall simplescreenrecorder
simplescreenrecorder: no process found

~>killall -e simplescreenrecorder
simplescreenrecorder: no process found

~>kill 13630
~>


À en juger par le manuel de killall(1) fournie dans Sid, à la 
description de l'option -e (--exact) le comportement de la commande 
devient?  curieux?  dès lors que le nom du processus dépasse 15 
caractères.  Avec cette information en tête, les commandes suivantes 
sont tombées en marche :

$ killall simplescreenrec
$ killall -e simplescreenrec


Aaaahh... Merci !!

killall ne m'a pas l'air très solide à l'usage.  Quand je peux, je 
préfère me référer à un fichier PID dans les scripts. Apparemment, à 
moins de préciser un --statsfile particulier, simplescreenrecorder(1) va 
crééer par défaut un fichier /dev/shm/simplescreenrecorder-stats-PID, si 
j'en croie son manuel.  Il y a peut-être moyen de travailler avec ça ?


Après avoir lancé simplescreenrecorder, /dev/shm reste vide.

(Et pkill ne tue pas non plus simplescreenrecorder.)

Any thoughts on where I might look to find settings that can be tweaked

See sdparm and hdparm tools. hdparm is probably the wrong tool because 
it's for internal drives connected to IDE/ATA/SATA busses. The reason 
sdparm works for USB drives is because of SCSI-over-USB emulation. See 
man page for more info.


The best way to do it is with a udev rule that will run some commands 
when the USB device gets plugged in. Otherwise the device resets it's 
config each time you plug it in.


Here's an actual example from my system:

-->cat /etc/udev/rules.d/86-Seagate-4TB-usb-disk-sleep.rules

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="block", ENV{ID_SERIAL_SHORT}=="NA8E4BKU", 
RUN+="/usr/local/sbin/udev-set-usb-hdd-spindown.sh"




-->cat /usr/local/sbin/udev-set-usb-hdd-spindown.sh
#!/bin/bash

PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin"

# Seagate USB3 4TB disk drive.
DISK_DEV=/dev/disk/by-id/usb-Seagate_Expansion_Desk_NA8E4BKU-0:0
if [[ -e "$DISK_DEV" ]] ; then
    logger "Setting spindown on disk drive: $DISK_DEV"
    sdparm --flexible -6 --set SCT=4000 $DISK_DEV
    sdparm --flexible -6 --set STANDBY=1 $DISK_DEV
fi ; unset DISK_DEV


There's a convoluted reason why I call the script instead of just 
running the commands in the udev rule itself. If possible I'd tell you 
to just use a udev rule and skip the external script. Do what's right 
for you.


There might be some GUI tool out there that will do this for you but 
that's how I do it. See man pages and google for more hints. Good luck.

systemd pulled in by libgimp-2.0 in buster

[deloptes]

Hi,
few days ago tested upgrade in buster for a new build server and had to
install libgimp2.0-dev which installed libgimp2.0 which pulled systemd I
think over policykit.

It was ask 1-2 weeks ago what is pulling systemd in buster. I wonder if
there is a way to avoid it and keep old init but having libgimp on the
system.

Thank you in advance

Segons la meva experiència, de forma predeterminada, el tenir els
«backports» habilitats en repositori només fa que puguis instal·lar
backports quan ho demanes expressament. Per exemple:

$ apt -t buster-backports install scribus

I now notice that the reason that "Oberon" was lurking somewhere in

It says otherwise here [1]:

and here [2]:

Again, dpkg disagrees with you:

$ dpkg -I /tmp/rstudio-1.2.5001-amd64.deb  | grep Dep
 Depends: libedit2, libssl1.0.0 | libssl1.0.2 | libssl1.1, libclang-dev,

I suggest you to update your RStudio package and to forget about
libssl1.0.

xfce and hybrid sleep: only in menu?

Hi.

I saw that the power menu now has support for hybrid sleep and have 
verified that it works reliably on my system (tracking "testing").


Therefore I wanted to make this mode the default when closing the lid but 
I can't seem to find this option in the power settings.


What gives? :)

Usually one application is linked to specific version of one library, but it
depends how the software is being compiled. This is also true for the
library itself. In the case with libssl1.0.2 you are may be lucky that
there is no broken dependency in libssl1.0.2 too and you can use it.

What one can do to safely isolate one library is to extract that
library "dpkg -x .deb " and then set explicit
LD_LIBRARY_PATH for the application or even LD_PRELOAD for the library.
