 Interesting, I have a similar problem with kmplayer's download page
 detecting the network connection has gone.
 Looking a bit inside /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ I see that tcp_keepalive_*
 might be useful in this respect. According to
 http://tldp.org/HOWTO/TCP-Keepalive-HOWTO/usingkeepalive.html the
 connection is terminated 9*75+7200 secs, i.e. about 2:11:15.
 No idea if lowering these values will help though.

I'd rather not tweak the actual timeouts but delay the connections til after 
the VPN is up.
Another possible solution I thought about is faking a network 
disconnect/connect over dbus after th VPN is up to make all apps reconnect. 
Thoughts?

Delaying actions on network availability

2010-02-20 Thread olle
Hi all!

I've set up OpenVPN to tunnel all traffic on my N900 and it works beautifully 
with /etc/network/if-up / down scripts.

Problem is, while OpenVPN is connecting, the IM clients all connect and then 
when the tunnel is up and default route is re-set it takes ages for them to 
time-out and reconnect.

Is there any way to delay actions that happen on network availability (IM 
connect, mail sync, etc.)?

Cheers,

 And so would I.

Please!

Maybe it would be more effective to poll for anyone interested in keeping him?

Had a similar experience when upgrading an N800 a while ago.
IIRCC the fix then was to delete and recreate the swap file.

No. If your key was generated before the bug was introduced, it is
most definately not affected. You could potentially still have a
problem if you use your (non predictable) key with a signature
scheme like DSA that needs randomness, though.

 Recently a security issue has been found in Debian\'s implementation

That should be OpenSSL, although OpenSSH uses OpenSSL for key creation.

 That directly affects openssh, and any key generated on Debian or
 Debian-derived systems from then until the recent security updates (on
 Debian, versions 0.9.8c-4etch3 or 0.9.8g-9) is deemed potentially
 compromised.

then being 0.9.8c-1 released 17 Sep 2006. If your key is older
than that you are not affected by this issue.

 If you have uploaded your key to garage.maemo.org and you believe this
 affects you: Please update your own version of OpenSSH and
 after that please re-generate a ssh key.

Again, please update your _OpenSSL_ library to current patchlevel.

 While libpurple's protocol support is now available via our chat app
 THANKS TO TELEPATHY-HAZE, the pidgin-otr package on Maemo extras is
 strictly a Pidgin user interface plugin, rather than a protocol plugin.

Darn, so we're no closer to OTR support then. I was hoping for a free ride!

 Thus, a second user interface would have to be written for OTR to work
 with an application other than Pidgin.

Not sure what you mean by a second user interface...

IIRC pidgin-otr is based on libotr (http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/) so I
guess we're still back to the drawing board with bug 1921 and integration
of libotr within the existing maemo IM/chat framework. Any takers?

Great news!

Does this mean that pidgin plugins such as OTR
ref: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1921
will work OOTB or perhaps only require some minimal porting?
