So why don't you get a laptop and try it out? Using a virtual machine
will not tell you what the behavior is if the network address is
forcibly changed on the machine, and there are other confounding
circumstances here like loss of network carrier when you change
location etc. (It may be possible to conduct a principled experiment
with virtual machines but it will not be particularly easy.)

You will have to make sure that the daemon continues to permit remote
logins on every new address it acquires.

Many things are unpleasant to maintain but provide necessary
functionality. Again, what you should do is conduct an actual test.

So far as I know, this is still an issue for your users, because sshd
does not, on its own, change its network address when one changes
networks. I would not remove this because if you remove it you're
going to harm anyone who changes addresses frequently.

However, I have not used Ubuntu in many years (this is 2017, the bug
report was 2007) and I am no longer in a position to help you.

sshd has no internal support to open and close listening addresses on
its own, so I suspect you're wrong. Why don't you try the actual use
case, which is changing addresses rather than an initial open.

However, I haven't used ubuntu in at least eight years and have no
way to help you.

How many people regularly ssh into their laptops on multiple
networks? I would guess very few.

Well, yah, but when you change networks you're also not listening to
the network. This isn't a race, this is just expected behavior. Even
if sshd did this on its own this would happen.

And it isn't a "hack", this is exactly what ifup/down scripts are for.

Yes, but it is not the same bug that everyone else is describing. It has
*similar* symptoms, I'll fully agree, but not *identical* symptoms.

I would suggest that people may also want to complain here:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=580185

I opened that bug report up with the gnome Bugzilla a little while ago.

 So despite the broad cross-section of drivers being affected, Dan
 Williams on the networkmanager team still thinks this is a driver bug,

 followup:

 http://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2009-April/msg00301.html

He might or may not be right that it is a driver bug, but unless he's
willing to fix the bug I suggest that Ubuntu simply restore the old
behavior with your patch. I've been running it for a while and it
essentially brought my machine back from the dead.

 As I already stated in my previous message on the list, I've already
 spent as much time as I can afford on this, and I prefer the behavior
 with my patch to a NM that continues to invoke useless scans.

As do I, my machine is now working again.

Re: [Bug 120199] Re: ntp daemon not reconfigured by /etc/network

2009-04-29 Thread Perry E. Metzger

Steve Langasek steve.langa...@canonical.com writes:
 I'm unclear about the meaning of your last message.  How is ntp being
 told to aim at different NTP servers if you /do/ restart it?  The
 default, static configuration shipped with the ntp package always points
 to ntp.ubuntu.com; how do you have ntp configured such that restarting
 the process makes a difference in where it's syncing to?

As just one obvious answer, consider dhcp getting a new ntp server --
you do realize that dhcp changes your configured ntp servers, right? --
although it appears this has gone on so long that the dhcp exit hooks
from Jaunty now seem restart the ntp server (as you would know if you
looked into this.)

Consider also that ntpd did not traditionally notice that interfaces had
come and gone and thus would not have any ability to talk to the ntp
server if it was not restarted, although again, the ntpd shipped with
Jaunty does this correctly.

This and more is explained well enough in the bug report for someone who
understands the underlying problem.

Anyway, all of this remains an issue on Hardy and possibly on Intrepd,
but as I no longer run any such boxes I no longer care. It might still
be an issue on Jaunty for some corner cases but I haven't been paying
attention -- Jaunty is too new, and given how long it has been I haven't
even looked at all the scripts currently involved -- nothing quite like
having a bug report ignored for this long.

[Bug 89591] Re: Please package Amarok Rio Karma support (--with-libkarma)

2009-01-12 Thread Perry E. Metzger
Way to go with the sensitive treatment of the community, Jon Thomas!
People sit around waiting for a couple of years for a support issue to
be fixed for their hardware, limping along when things could Just Work
with minimal effort. Therefore, the right thing is to say to yourself
oh, the new release doesn't support your hardware anyway, HAHAHAHAH
LOSERS! I'm closing your bug report. That's another one closed for me
today! SCORE! I WIN YOU SUCKERS!

Do you ask would people still want 1.4 around so they could use their
Karmas still? No. Did you even apologize for the fact that a trivial
thing was left untouched for a couple of YEARS when it could have been
fixed quickly and would have made people happy? No. Do you acknowledge
the work people put in to make it easy for the support to be added, the
work no one bothered to pay attention to? No.

Instead we get your wonderful example of public relations, lets see if I
can quote this accurately, it is so long:

Amarok 2.0 no longer supports Rio Karma, so closing.

You even managed to save a few words by not using proper English
grammar, thus speeding your way through your day.

Must be a great feeling, getting another bug report closed without even
having to write one complete grammatical sentence! *THAT* is truly the
most important thing. Remember to put the notch in the belt!

 Perry: Please cool down. Jonathan is handling a few hundred bugs a

So?

 And the Kubuntu team has limited resources which need to be used
 wisely. Would you rather have a new package/a fixed bug or him
 spending a lot of time on a reply in a bugreport?

I think the criterion here seems to be if we close the bug report,
we've succeeded, because that is as good as a fixed bug rather than
if we've fixed the problem users are experiencing, we've
succeeded. This is a twisted criterion.

And yes, I'd rather have fewer packages that were properly maintained
with care and consideration for the users than some mechanical figure
of merit being met.

Ubuntu has greatly disappointed me in this regard across the board. It
is not enough to claim you want great user experience -- you actually
have to deliver, and part of deliver means don't leave a bug report
to rot for two years and then close it with an abrupt who
cares. The we're understaffed excuse doesn't make people feel
better about the slap.

Lets forget that, though. There's a much deeper problem. Responding to
someone who feels slighted at the short shrift you've given them with
a second one-liner shows an unique sense of style. Remind me to
recommend you for a job in public relations. Oh wait! -- slaps thigh

the whole project.

Every Ubuntu release breaks my existing hardware worse, and in each
case it is a known bug, sometimes known for years. In other cases,
I've been waiting for years for simple bug reports to be dealt with
only to have them closed with some unresponsive message from a person
who clearly dealt with 300 other bugs that same day and might not even
understand the original issue.

Project management clearly does not understand that if you intend to
have people think your product is high quality, you cannot pretend
closing bug reports equals fixing bugs.

zasq [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
 Does someone know if the problem will be fixed soon?

I don't know for sure, but my strong suspicion is that no one who is
in a position to fix the problem has any intention of ever working on
it. This report has been open for a long time and nothing much has
happened. I see no reason to believe a fix will ever happen.

A non-charitable reading would be that apathy has taken hold. A
charitable one (which I think might be more accurate) is that
Canonical is resource limited and is now far beyond its capacity to
cope with bug reports, which become more numerous as the popularity of
Ubuntu grows.  I would, of course, be very pleased to be proven wrong,
but I fear I won't be.

As it stands, my Ubuntu laptop, which worked fine a few releases ago,
is suffering from multiple crippling bugs, all of which have long
standing open bug reports confirmed by multiple sources, all of which
have been ignored much like this one.

I can no longer use it terribly effectively -- USB is failing, my
wireless card will not recover from sleep without a reboot and stops
working for several seconds every couple of minutes, etc -- and I'm
soon going to to have to abandon Ubuntu in order to be able to use my
laptop again.

It is a great shame, but it appears that, as it stands, Ubuntu is
slowly falling apart, apparently because its popularity has strained
the limited support resources beyond the breaking point. Perhaps this
is a lesson in how a distribution like this can or cannot be managed
in a scalable fashion.

 A note for those who are dissatisfied with the progress on this bug.
 It seems likely that these usb problems could actually be caused by
 numerous different glitches in different usb controllers or devices.

No, that's not the issue. The problem is that a deliberate choice was
made to wreck lots of people's USB controllers on the basis that we
weren't important enough to care about.

 Don't expect one single fix to address all these problems
 simultaneously;

NetBSD and FreeBSD deal with these controllers just fine. I happen to
be unfortunate enough to want to run Ubuntu however.

I want to emphasize: this is not some sort of problem that is poorly
understood and caused by buggy hardware. It is well understood and
being ignored.

 It is the same situation seen on the release of windows vista, where the
 minor differences between xp and vista exposed similar device bugs which
 sent vendors scurrying to produce driver updates.

That's not even a remotely apt analogy. Among other things, this bug
has been around since before the release of Vista and no one intends
to fix it.

 - observe ntpd listening on the new address (can take a few minutes)
 - observe the time being synchronized

The ntp daemon will not learn that it is supposed to aim at different
NTP servers, so it doesn't matter that it is listening on the new
address. I do not observe the time re-synchronizing itself under these

2008-08-14 Thread Perry E. Metzger

Pardon my frustration here. I feel as though I'm talking to a clerk at
the DMV who is insisting that my paperwork isn't in order. It is
starting to make me write in a manner that is perhaps more angry than
is appropriate, but it feels like I'm talking to a wall. The goal here
should not be to close bug reports without understanding them. The
goal should be to fix the problem, which is simple and
straightforward.

Hew McLachlan [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
 1) What version of Ubuntu was the bug reported on? Feisty?

 2) Have you tested using the latest release of Ubuntu, Hardy Heron? This
 has a newer version of ntp, which may have solved your problem.

It doesn't solve it. I've already explained that earlier in the bug
report. If you had read the bug report and understood how ntpd works
this would not be something you would be asking.

 3) Your bug description states that the solution is to remove certain
 lines from certain files, but these files do not exist in the latest
 version of ntp.

Yes, I know that. The files are scripts that are executed when the
system comes out of sleep or hibernate. They can be set to restart
ntpd which is the the appropriate action. By removing those files the
situation has been made worse rather than better -- the bug is not
gone simply because the scripts have been entirely removed rather than
simply rendered useless as they were before.

Restoring them with appropriate settings so ntpd restarts when a
machine comes out of sleep is the correct thing to do.

To repeat, the issue is that ntpd is not a program that understands
the idea of a machine, like a laptop, hibernating for some period of
time and then re-appearing on an entirely different network. Simply
restarting the daemon will cause it to behave correctly, but if the
same instance keeps running it will misbehave after reboot. This is
not a bug in ntpd -- ntpd is not built or designed for mobility and
indeed probably should not be altered for mobility. Just adding
scripts to restart it is fine. This will take five minutes for
a skilled developer, perhaps less.

 Again, please test with the latest version of Ubuntu,

I'm not an imbecile. Please stop treating me like one.

If someone wants to fix this, and understands the problem, it will
take about five minutes to put appropriate files into the appropriate
directories to restart ntpd when a machine comes out of sleep or
hibernate.

Status: New = Incomplete

The bug report is fine. The problem is that the people reading it are
insufficiently technically skilled to understand what the issue
is. As I said, this will take all of five minutes to fix if someone
actually wants to.

I'm re-setting the status, as the bug report is most certainly *not*
incomplete.

 Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make

That's not my fault. I reported a bug and no one bothered to try
fixing it. That doesn't mean the bug has vanished.

 We were wondering is this still an issue for you?

So far as I know, yes.

 The files you mentioned are not present in my testing with
 Intrepid. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release, Hardy Heron?
 Thanks in advance.

I see no evidence of the problem having been fixed in Hardy.

If the files don't exist in Intrepid, that's because they've either
been replaced with another mechanism for restarting things after
sleep, which might or might not be broken, or because things have been
broken by totally removing the scripts instead of fixing them.

So, no, you can't just close this bug report without fixing it.

Please try to understand what the problem is and to test for the
problem being fixed, not for the existence of a particular file.

The problem isn't those files. It is the functionality. The fact that
the files no longer exist at all might in fact mean that the situation
is worse, not that it is better.

 and from what I can tell, ntp works just fine.

Okay, if you're sure there is no problem, what restarts ntp when a
machine wakes from sleep on a laptop? If it is not restarted, it is
likely not to have the correct ntp servers in use, and it will not
have the time properly synchronized.

Following the previous directions (with a few difficulties -- I needed
to get the amarok_riokarma-mediadevice.desktop file out of the amarok

the thing automatically mount when it is plugged in (which I don't know

It would be nice if this was fnally all packaged up -- clearly there is

[Bug 229556] [NEW] Problems with CD/DVD drive on IBM Thinkpad T41 under Hardy

2008-05-12 Thread Perry E. Metzger
Public bug reported:

Under Hardy, I'm experiencing the following problems with my CD/DVD
(removable) drive:

1) When sleeping, the power light on the CD/DVD drive remains on, and
from what I can tell based on battery drain times, it appears that the
drive is indeed consuming power. Clearly something is wrong with the
ACPI detach of the device on suspend. This is rather annoying as it
significantly reduces the amount of time the machine can be left
sleeping.

2) If I pop the drive out (it is an Ultrabay Slim device), and re-insert
it, the OS crashes hard. This is certainly not appropriate behavior for
the device. I can only assume that this, too, is a problem with
detaching/reattaching the driver.

I'll attach dmesg and lspci output -- here is uname and
version_signature data:

$ uname -a
Linux hackworth.piermont.com 2.6.24-16-generic #1 SMP Thu Apr 10 13:23:42 UTC

That's not a solution. You're almost certainly just using the low

[Bug 225780] [NEW] mplayer no longer works under Hardy on IBM T41

2008-05-02 Thread Perry E. Metzger
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mplayer

Running under Hardy on an IBM Thinkpad T41 laptop, mplayer no longer
works at all. (Neither, it appears, does Totem.)

If I try to play a video from the shell, mplayer hangs for a while, then
pops up a window with what appears to be the first frame of the video,
and then either hangs forever or crashes shortly thereafter. Sometimes
it fails to open a window at all. Sometimes it appears to play (though
nothing displays other than black) and then dies quickly.

Totem has very similar behavior.

This worked perfectly under Gutsy.

Given that both Totem and mplayer seem similarly afflicted, I wonder if
the problem isn't actually in the x server video extension stuff or in a
library both Totem and mplayer use, but I have no real clue about how to
go about debugging this.

Here is typical output from the program, which is not terribly useful so
far as I can tell:

Yes, I can do that.

 If so, can you attach the following (be sure to attach each as a
 separate file and not as a tarball).

Will do right now.

 * cat /proc/version_signature  version.log
 * dmesg  dmesg.log

By the way, things have improved slightly. With the absolutely latest
Hardy kernel, boot still hangs for quite a while before succeeding and
sound is still dead, but the ethernet now comes up. The wireless is
still dead, though.

I just realized, I should have said an IBM Thinkpad T40. I'm not
entirely sure what sort of machine information will be needed by
whomever will be helping to debug this -- just tell me what commands
to run and I'll post the output here. (Please specify if you need me
to be running the broken kernel when I run said commands.)

Re: [Bug 104525] Re: default ntp.conf should use pool.ntp.org servers

2008-02-08 Thread Perry E. Metzger

Inkwina [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
 In any case the concern with anonymous servers is not dissimilar from that
 wit anonymous mirrors.

It is quite dissimilar, in that an anonymous mirror (where you didn't
check the signatures) could take over your machine. There is no
evidence an anonymous bad actor controlling one of several clocks you
are reading could take over your machine -- even if he controlled all
the clocks, he could probably not take over your machine.

 If your security requirements are that stringent, you should be running your
 own stratum 1 ntpd (a gps reciever does not cost that much).

GPS signals can be externally corrupted with an appropriate
transmitter as well. There is no actual way to prove you have the
correct time. (This is one reason very few protocols require accurate
timekeeping for security.)

2008-02-07 Thread Perry E. Metzger

Alexander Konovalenko [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
 I'm concerned with the security implications of using a pool of unknown
 time servers per default.

Most other OSes out there do this or variations on it now, so it would
hardly be an Ubuntu specific problem.

There are only security problems for Kerberos based services. If
you're using Kerberos, you had better be set up to use NTP one way or
another anyway, and probably a custom setup. If you're not already
using ntp, your kerberos setup won't work at all.

 If I understand correctly, anyone can volunteer to participate in
 the pool. If the end user's ntpd is started with the -g option,
 overriding the 1000 seconds sanity check (as was the default in
 Ubuntu 7.10),

The default can always be changed, of course, but I think it hardly
matters.

 and the server selects only one time server from the pool to
 synchronize from,

That's a big if. If you have three servers in your list, the odds of
all three being suborned are minimal. The odds of an attacker being
able to influence which clients end up getting pointed to them in the
DNS are also minimal. Beyond that, there is the fact that there are
generally no real security implications to having your clock altered.

 an attacker who controls a single server in the pool can set the
 time of many Ubuntu hosts over the world.

Yes. That's hardly a problem.

 Also, he will know the IP addresses of the victims.

Not really. He'll only know they asked his machine for time -- he has
no way of knowing if they actually set the time (especially if they
have other servers giving different numbers) and he has no real way to
exploit any of this anyway.

 If any of them happen to be interesting targets for the attacker, he
 can then mount further attacks on all cryptographic protocols that
 depend on correct time-keeping

Which protocols would those be? I don't think Ubuntu ships with any
kerberos enabled apps, and even for kerberos the attacks are minimal,
since the clock is only used for ticket expiry.

 (for example, to prevent replay attacks).

TLS and IPsec use entirely different mechanisms to prevent
replay. There are no clock dependent security protocols in real use
that I'm aware of other than Kerberos. Even for Kerberos, trying to
set a clock far off is only going to allow an attacker to extend a
ticket, it won't actually allow important remotely exploitable
attacks. I can post references on this if needed.

 That would be a serious security threat for the users.

I do security for a living. I see no threat here, and certainly no
serious threat.

If you are really concerned about security, worry about real problems
in the default Ubuntu config, like turning zeroconf on by default,
which expose people to actual problems. This threat you are worried
about in setting a default ntp.conf is not real.

 We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but it would make

If you appreciated my difficulties, you would try to do something

[Bug 144089] A bug I reported has been in limbo for 5 months.

2007-09-22 Thread Perry E. Metzger
Public bug reported:

I reported 98608 a very long time ago.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/98608

The person assigned to it seems to have ignored it in the interim. (I
note by clicking on his name that he seems to have done the same thing
to many other bug reports).

The other bugs that I've reported in the past have not been quite so
thoroughly ignored. For some reason -- perhaps because of who the bug
was assigned to -- this one (which inconveniences me nearly every day
and is exceptionally bad) has been left to rot.

Scott Kitterman [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
 Unless you have a Canonical support contract, the fact that a bug isn't 
 fixed as quickly as you would like isn't a bug.

I didn't ask that it be *fixed*. It could be a legitimately hard
problem that might take years to fix, or it might be that I'm one of
five people suffering from it so it is unimportant.

The bug is that it hasn't been assigned an importance level after five
months, so it isn't being processed further. Launchpad should not
leave things to rot this way. It should keep nagging owners of bug
reports until they properly categorize them.

 What I would suggest is ask what can be done to improve the clarity or 
 completeness of the bug on #ubuntu-kernel during their normal workday.

Actually, if you read the original bug report, the owner asked a
question which was fully responded to. If further questions had been
asked they would have been responded to as well.

The problem is that the bug report was left to rot, not that the bug
was not fixed.
