[gentoo-user] Permission issue with both defvs and udev
Hi there, is anyone able to tell me why device nodes in /dev/sound/ always have permissions 600 and group (myuser):audio instead of (as configured in devfsd.conf or udev.conf) 660 and root:audio?

[gentoo-user] Searching Gentoo for certain binaries and/or packages: console-tools, doexec, mktemp
Hi List- Anyone know where in Gentoo I can find any of these packages or binaries? Info from rpmfind.net: package console-tools with binary consolechars; package initscripts with binary /bin/doexec (as found in redhat); package mktemp with binary mktemp. I've searched the list archives and portage ebuild files. I found a thread discussing kbd vs. console-tools but it didn't help me figure out how to install console-tools. I also found mention in some of the usermode and vanilla linux source ebuild files about console-tools being necessary to resolve ...the loadkeys fiasco..., but still not helpful in getting it installed. Searching Google, I found a discussion that described a sys-apps/console-tools package in portage, but I see none in the current portage. I can't find anything on either doexec or mktemp binaries. rpmfind.net shows them coming from an rpm called initscripts (for doexec) and an rpm called mktemp (for the binary mktemp), but I don't see any candidates for these in Gentoo. I have a system of uncertain origin that has some functionality that I'm trying to reproduce with a Gentoo system. The unknown system is apparently based on redhat (it has a redhat 7.3 kernel) and it contains these binaries and I'm not certain where it uses them, but I thought that any Gentoo-implementation of a system performing similar functionality should have all of the unknown system's binaries at a minimum.

Re: [gentoo-user] Unattended sftp?
Passwords in ssh and sftp are sent encrypted, so the password cannot be sniffed by moitoring your transmissions. You cannot say the same for ftp, telnet or http. As someone pointed out, you can often arrange that two given accounts can use sftp without passwords; I do this quite a bit. Another approach that I use is to use the expect(1) package. You install it on one machine, and use it to automate just about any command-line activity, including sending passwords. The expect script that you wind up with may have the password in the clear, but you keep it protected in your own account. If it's using sftp, for instance, then the password is protected by the sftp protocols. Expect is marvellously useful for automating all sorts of things that were not written with automation in mind. I hope this helps. ++ kevin On Tue, 22 Feb 2005 09:10:09 -0500, Dave Nebinger [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think you're right.

[gentoo-user] Login problems with NIS and/or PAM
I'm trying to integrate a Gentoo box into a network of mostly SuSE-based machines using NIS. I've worked with NIS for quite a while, so getting it to run was not a big problem, even though I'm fairly new to Gentoo. The automounter maps get distributed just fine, yptest works, ypcat on any map I like, just like it should; getpwent(3) works fine and returns all accounts from the server---but still they don't work right. I.e. I can su into any user account from root, but I can't login to any from the console or XDM nor su from another unprivileged account. I always get a message about failed authentication in pam_unix in the log. The PAM config is the default from 0.77-r6. The pam_unix module is supposed to just use the getpwnam() call and thus doesn't need any NIS support of its own, right? Any ideas what might be going wrong here? TIA!

Re: [gentoo-user] Unattended sftp?
I think you're right. Does this mean anyone could easily intercept my login and password and log in as me? The basic answer for this is yes. Definitely your password could be intercepted and used by others. But consider for a minute what is involved with that... Someone floating out there on the net would have to be intercepting packets. And the packets that you're sending would need to flow over the same path to the endpoint (not guaranteed by IP). And they would need to be able to filter the mass of packets going by their system to get the one(s) with your password information. And they would initially have to identify a need to get your password in order to target your packets for capture. Granted all of this is indeed doable, but IMHO it's like looking for a particular atom in a haystack, let alone the needle... Ok, it sounds like I should contact the companies I'm ftp'ing to and see if there is a safe option for transmitting my password. If not, I should just use a unique password and keep an eye on things. I would think Google and Yahoo wouldn't want my password to their systems getting out any more than I want it getting out. - Grant -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Unattended sftp?
Passwords in ssh and sftp are sent encrypted, so the password cannot be sniffed by moitoring your transmissions. You cannot say the same for ftp, telnet or http. As someone pointed out, you can often arrange that two given accounts can use sftp without passwords; I do this quite a bit. Another approach that I use is to use the expect(1) package. You install it on one machine, and use it to automate just about any command-line activity, including sending passwords. The expect script that you wind up with may have the password in the clear, but you keep it protected in your own account. If it's using sftp, for instance, then the password is protected by the sftp protocols. Expect is marvellously useful for automating all sorts of things that were not written with automation in mind. Nice, that is sure to come in handy. - Grant ++ kevin -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Greetings, My background is with slack80. Gentoo is way different! A few questions: How does chown work? #chown username:users doesn't work. I added username to wheel group, but when I su I get: name expired(something like that). Gentoo seems to assume I have broadband but I live at the end of an eight-mile phone line. When I try emerge x-org it craps out at ttmfk* I'll have to download the file seperately. Is that gonna be the only one? I copied DIR_COLORS to $HOME/.dir_colors but ls still outputs in monochrome.

Holly Bostick wrote: Manuel McLure wrote: It's becoming pretty obvious that although you are very smart people, you wouldn't last a day in a customer support environment. Now, that's pretty funny... because I have worked in various customer support environments for quite some time, and one of the reasons that it pays to be very smart in that field is because *sometimes you have to tell the customer that they are wrong*, in such a way that they don't lose it (and you don't lose them as a customer). The customer is not always right. They may think that if they just do thus-and-so (just click, buy whatever takes their fancy, whether or not their equipment/OS supports it, plug in a wireless card and be safe from having their bandwith stolen without lifting a finger to secure their system), that they have the right and ability to change natural/physical/electronic/gravitational law, but they don't. And when they come face to face with the real world, CS is the one who has to tell them just what's going on, and how to fix it, if it's not already FUBAR'd beyond hope (which CS also has to be smart enough to figure out from the information they can pry out of a non-expert). So if CS isn't full of pretty smart people, CS doesn't last long, because it's a very delicate dance. Of course, charm helps, as does a certain amount of compassion, but a smart person can get around lacking those, if they must. But this is not a customer service environment. Few if any of us have paid for Gentoo; we are only customers in the broadest sense. And if we are not aware by now that becoming a Gentoo customer is a cooperative agreement, that requires some active participation on our parts, then we have definitely made a mistake in becoming a Gentoo customer-- certainly in making *our* customers rely on Gentoo as well. But that's so elitist! Give me a break. Some things are just the way they are. I have to stand on a stepstool to get some pots from the top of my kitchen cabinets; my boyfriend can reach them easily, because he's like a foot taller. It's not 'elitist' that he has the advantage of height and I don't; it's the way it is. Gentoo is designed in such a way that the 'user' has to pay attention and exert energy to keep up with the daily changes-- usually they are improvements, but sometimes they aren't, and one needs to be awake for them, either way. That's not everybody's cup of tea, but it's not elitist to say that that's the way it needs to be if you intend to be here, any more than it's elitist to say that a construction worker needs to have physical strength and stamina in order to adequately perform his/her job. That's just the way it is. And anyway, the bloody server isn't *broken*; it's *migrating* and it'll probably be done in a couple of days, knowing these guys.

He dropped Windows and became a Gentoo user. Everything had gone very well just doing the normal emerge sync / emerge world routing for a long time. Recently the machine developed a strange problem where Evolution wouldn't connect to the Internet. I messed for days with all the stuff you would normally guess to be the root cause of that sort of thing but nothing we did got it to work. Researching on the Internet I found it to be a fairly common problem and that about 60% of people who had the problem fixed it with the distro equivalent of emerge -e gnome. Sort of as a last resort I tried that since I figured it could get done overnight. It rebuilt about 260 packages and Evolution was fixed. At that point I could have stopped but since my dad was traveling and the machine was just sitting there, and because the emerge -e gnome had emerged a new glibc and gcc, a new xorg-x11 and a few other pretty basic things, I decided that I'd like to do the other 200 packages not covered by emerge -e gnome. Not thinking it was worth the time to script the whole thing I just kicked off the -e world, which rebuilt the same 260 packages a second time, along with the other 210 or so that were not covered. It all worked except for 1 package (nforce-audio) and that one is fixed in ~x86. Anyway, I really agree. I don't like the idea of completely rebuilding the machine just because something doesn't work. Over time you are pretty much correct - everything gets rebuilt, but iIn this case, with him out of town and the opportunity in front of me to make the machine like brand new, I didn't see any reason not to try. Gentoo is really a pretty amazing distribution and the developers do a great job. I just wanted to say thanks. Cheers, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
