ssh+background process in script
Hi,
I am porting some test codes from Fedora core 2 to Fedora core 8.it
works fine in FC2(2.6.5-1.358) but problem in FC8(2.6.23.1-42.fc8).
Pgm.c
-
#include
int main void(int)
{
fprintf(stderr,"hello world\n",);
}
$ gcc -o Pgm Pgm.c
$ vim myscript.sh
./Pgm &
$ /usr/bin/ssh -x -n -o BatchMode=yes 127.0.0.1 cd /home/tom/Test_Dir/ '&&'
./myscript.sh
If i run this command hello world is not printed.
If i run this same in FC2 hello world in printed.
Whether there is solution to this or it is a bug of FC8?
--
Below solutions are correct?.
Solution 1:
--
If i do these changes i.e if i re-direct to stdout and run in background.
$ vim myscript.sh
./Pgm 2>&1 &
$ /usr/bin/ssh -x -n -o BatchMode=yes 127.0.0.1 cd /home/tom/Test_Dir/ '&&'
./myscript.sh
If i run this command it works fine.
Solution 2:
--
vim myscript.sh
./Pgm &/dev/null &
$ /usr/bin/ssh -x -n -o BatchMode=yes 127.0.0.1 cd /home/tom/Test_Dir/ '&&'
./myscript.sh

F10-Beta - XF86VidModeQueryExtension has disappeared
Something has changed recently and I'm not sure what package to file a bug against. I use dosemu (http://www.dosemu.org) and it worked fine on my F10-beta laptop a few days ago. Today I tried to run it and got this error: /usr/bin/xdosemu: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/dosemu/libplugin_X.so: undefined symbol: XF86VidModeQueryExtension XF86VidModeQueryExtension appears to be provided by libXxf86vm, but yum.log doesn't show any recent updates to that package.

Re: [sudo-users] How to disable ( deny ) user to change the password of root
Dear All,
For /usr/bin/upasswd :
#!/bin/sh
# Validate that a username was given as an argument
[ -n "$1" ] || {
echo "Use: upasswd " >&2
exit 64
}
# Validate that the username wasn't "root"
[ "$1" != "root" ] || {
echo "Can't set the root user's password" >&2
exit 77
}
# Use -- to make sure that the "username" given wasn't just
# a switch that passwd would interpret.
# THIS ONLY WORKS ON GNU SYSTEMS.
passwd -- "$1"
For visudo :
SYSADM MH = (ALL) /usr/bin/upasswd
Notice * without the option after "/usr/bin/upasswd"...
So, the test result is okay now :
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$ sudo upasswd
Use: upasswd
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$ sudo upasswd root
Can't set the root user's password
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$ sudo upasswd edward
Changing password for user edward.
New UNIX password:
Many thanks for your help !

Well, using the commandline that you sent me: mplayer http://scfire-ntc-aa02.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1040 I can play the music. That kind of eliminates codec problems and so on. (Though I'd still like to know where you found that link on the 977music.com page -- I just looked and I can't find it at all.) However, trying to play music from that page has gone from bad to worse. Now when I try to click on one of the links from the main page (http://www.977music.com) all I get see in my Firefox window is a gray screen that says "stopped" at the bottom. Clicking to a different Firefox tab and back to the tab with the 977music on it still shows me the screen on the other tab. In other words, it's not writing anything to that screen at all. It's not frozen -- I can still click "back" and go back to the main 977music homepage. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com DRY CLEANER BUSINESS FOR SALE ~ http://www.canadadrycleanerforsale.com -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Jackd Problems -- alsa_pcm: xrun of at least 1227061150613.504 msecs
In the past I've never had any problems running jackd. Now I'm getting a very large number of messages reading: alsa_pcm: xrun of at least 1227061150613.504 msecs I'm running F9 on an x86_64 system with all updates installed. Pulseaudio is not running. Jackd is started via qjackctl. No past problems with audio beyond the usual conflicts between pulseaudio and firefox. Questions: (1) What exactly does this message mean? An "xrun" is a buffer under- or over-run -- but what does the time interval represent? (2) Whatever the time interval means, it looks rather large. 1227061150613.504 msec is many days (or maybe years if msec means millisec and not microsec) This looks like a misconfiguration of some kind or a missing component.

Backing up those (system) files that a user can just read in the normal set of events is not a security issue. The serious risk is on the restore side of things. For example /etc/passwd needs to be +read for the world by contrast /etc/shadow cannot be read. Interpreted programs -- bash, perl, python must be +read! Note that the run time load/linker must read information from binary objects. In fact it must do a bit of editing -- see also prelink. It might be possible to add attributes to each section of an object (see objdump) such that specific read write bits and security attributes exist and are enforced per section (I do not recommend such an RFE). There may be an issue if software is purchased and unauthorized copies leave the building but that is a different component of security. -- T o m M i t c h e l l Found me a new hat, now what? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

I have two laptops. One Acer Aspire One and one "no-name" Intel. If I put both of them online wirelessly at the same time and then attempt to copy a large file from my desktop computer to the Intel using scp, everything works perfectly. If I then attempt to copy the same large file from my desktop to the Acer, the transfer stops in the middle, and the router and the Intel's wireless capabilities both lock up. I can log into the router and restart it from my desktop's wired connection. When the router finishes resetting the Acer jumps back online automatically with no further action required on my part. The Intel laptop won't go back online until I reboot it. Somehow the Acer is locking up everything (the router and the other computer) except itself. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com DRY CLEANER BUSINESS FOR SALE ~ http://www.canadadrycleanerforsale.com -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Most of these are TCPIP socket accept and connect. I want to be able to run all the threads in a second or so to achieve a reasonable throughput. I would like the kernel to run 1000 threads per second. Right now I think it is set for 100 ticks per second in f9 x86 64bit. The ticks matter when the threads are competing for cpu, but it looks like in your case they'll mostly be waiting for socket calls (during which the schedular will hand off to another thread anyway), so increasing the timeslice frequency is probably not going to make a difference. Hard to know without testing of course. poc Yes you are correct under "NORMAL" circumstances 100 ticks per second would be ok. But if I design for worst case where all threads are running I need 1000 ticks per second, or response will not be good. I did not want to build a custom kernel, but it looks like I may have to to achieve the design goal. That depends on whether your design goal is to have the ticks at 1000 or to have the system respond properly. That are not the same thing. Before you start building kernels, run vmstat and look at the context switching and interrupt rates. I would expect them to be over 1000 under load, indicating that something else is limiting response. Then look at understand the tunable parameters in the /proc/sys/kernel/sched_* area, I found major changes in that area, and traded a small bit of total performance for far more response. I posted many things to the kernel mailing list, but the meaning of the bits in the "features" has changed since 2.6.18 or so, and what I did doesn't work the same way. Lots of room to tune there, though, before going down the road to maintaining your own config. -- Bill Davidsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
Re: Reverse Compatibility Manifesto
William M. Quarles wrote: OK, so I said the phrase "Windows XP" in a message, and suddenly NO ONE will reply? Seriously, I'll say it again, Microsoft and Sony (e.g. most of the PlayStation series) can do reverse compatibility fairly well, and Fedora is almost totally lacking in that arena. "Get with the times" doesn't always make sense. And if anybody says, "Well, if you like reverse compatibility so much, why don't you shell out for Microsoft software like 90% of the rest of the herd." Uh, no. There are both commercial and "free" software products that need that reverse compatibility. Example: is there anybody out there doing natural science or engineering on Linux machines right now who is NOT using any commercial software whatsoever? And just because a "free" software product hasn't been updated in a while does not mean that the software is useless. I can't quadruple boot my machine just to run all of the software I use. It should not be necessary, especially when most of this software is designed for Red Hat/Fedora distributions, or can be installed and run using WINE. Any thoughts? William Vista won't run many old programs. Many old Windows programs have problems with newer ones. We have scientific equipment that requires Windows 98 to run as the software won't run on XP. If you are using older software, then expect to have issues. This is how Microsoft gets you to spend more money on their products. I have not purchased any commercial software on my Linux box. The only one that I would like would be Autocad but for 95% of my drafting needs, Qcad works. As for older OpenSource products, sometimes the only thing needed to do is to update the "make" file. As others say, run the software in a VM if it won't run in Wine. When it comes to software, it comes up to the supplier of the software. -- Robin Laing -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Need to control loading of usb-storage
My problem is: I need to find a way to tell Linux not to load the usb-storage module when a certain peripheral, whose signature I know, is inserted. For now the only way I have found is putting usb-storage in the blacklist but this means module doesn't load when I plug my usb key or my external hard drive so I look for something finer grained Details I own a cell phones who han USB connector and can be accessed either as an MTP device or as a mass storage one but the latter works if, and only if, it has an additional memory card inserted (presently I have none). The phone prompts for the mode at coonect time b ut no matter what I select the usb-storage loads itself, unsuccessfully tries to put the phone in storage mode (normal behaviour since the phone has no external memory card) and after a minute or two, gives up, unloads itself and removes the peripheral from the list of present USB devices. In other words even after the usb-storage module has unloaded I cannot use the phone in mtp mode.

I tried it today and it doesn't work anymore, my guess is that some of the recent updates might have changed something on audio config (I know hardware is ok because system is dual-boot, and headphones work on XP). Front speakers are working as expected. I tried playing around with PulseAudio settings, but didn't get anywhere I know this is a lame call for help, but I don't even know what kind of info I should provide. Here's something that might help: # cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel HDA Intel at 0xa322 irq 22 System is running Fedora 9 with latest updates. Any help will be appreciated.

When you enter "sudo passwd" without the option (eg:userid):

That's not a bug. "sudo" doesn't know what you're trying to do, only
whether or not your commands match the patterns in its configuration
files. They do, so sudo allows the access.
OH...the user manager who can change root password ?
So, is there any solution for this case of problem ?
Yes, there is. Don't let users execute any of those commands directly.
Write shell scripts that validate the commands that you want them to
execute, and only allow users to execute those with sudo. For example:
passwd-wrapper:
#!/bin/sh
# Validate that a username was given as an argument
[ -n "$1" ] || {
echo "Use: passwd-wrapper " >&2
exit 64
}
# Validate that the username wasn't "root"
[ "$1" != "root" ] || {
echo "Can't set the root user's password" >&2
exit 77
}
# Use -- to make sure that the "username" given wasn't just
# a switch that passwd would interpret.
# THIS ONLY WORKS ON GNU SYSTEMS.
passwd -- "$1"

The ability to do what? Give root ownership to a script? It is unchanged. Once again: only root can change ownership. In any case, the owner of the script is only security-relevant in two cases: 1) if it allows someone to edit the script who normally couldn't, or 2) if the script is setuid. Of course it could also change who can *execute* the script, but if it's not setuid they'll be doing it as themselves, not as the owner. > having read 'chown(2)' and trying it to see just what occurred, now shows > me that it has been changed.

Meaning you'll be running scripts as root, same as everyone. The only difference is that you have to supply the root password to get there. Once past that hurdle, the situation is exactly the same as using setuid. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Since I only have fedora repos at the moment it didn't find anything. If you want to compare any file lists with the Mandriva laptop, just let me know.

Re: Now What do you do when you blow a Raid 1 disk?
Neal Rhodes wrote: So, software Raid 1 in Fedora is just the bee's knees. Until a drive actually fails.Then it's not so much. How do you get out of this swamp? What are the steps to take out a dead drive, stuff in a brand new identical disk drive, and get the Raid back going again? In my case, the system still boots, and has /, /boot, and /u as three Raid1 filesystems.Each filesystem is running degraded. Use "cat /proc/mdstat" or "mdadm --detail /dev/mdN" to determine which drive failed, where mdN is the wonky array. Then run: mdadm /dev/mdN --remove /dev/that/has/failed To remove the failed drive, then replace it with the same size or larger and run: mdadm /dev/mdN --add /dev/shiny/new/replacement/drive Then check the resync has begun via mdstat/mdadm. You can also monitor its progress with something like: watch -n5 cat /proc/mdstat Let's presume my 2nd drive is toast, and I've got a replacement. What are the steps?Seems like I can't do anything with mdadm while it's up, because the drives are busy. Why not? The mdadm command is designed for use in this situation. You might want to take a look at the Software RAID how to, which provides a lot more detail on manipulating running MD RAID arrays: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO.html Although it's not been updated in a while, the basic commands (create, assemble, add, remove etc.) really haven't changed in a long time.
