[Bug 293139] Re: NetworkManager does not use dhclient-exit-hooks.d
Has this been fixed in versions posterior to 14.04? Or is it waiting to reach "extra-hot" status? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293139 Title: NetworkManager does not use dhclient-exit-hooks.d To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/network-manager/+bug/293139/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 685215] Re: users-admin hangs immediately when run as root
In most operating systems I worked on (and that includes a lot of different Unix flavours), the most natural system administration account used when one needs to create user accounts, is that of the system admin. For some reason Linux does it the other way round: root cannot do it and everybody else can. Best of all the reason invoked is that it potentially creates security issues (probably more than everybody being able to create user accounts). Surely, all other operating systems are wrong and Linux is undoubtedly right. Luckily enough people in the know relentlessly enlighten simpletons like me with sentences along the tune of you should not do/need etc. No doubt the amount of time spent initiating us mere mortals is nothing compared to what would be necessary to test whether the currently executing user is 'root', issue an informative message box and exit... or just doing nothing and let root sys admins use sys admin tools. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/685215 Title: users-admin hangs immediately when run as root To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/685215/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 374589] Re: Samba fails to start at boot when not connected to network (and specific interfaces are configured)
I've adapted and tried the workaround developed by David Harel (the initial bug reporter) but that does not work with interfaces that are beyond NetworkManager's jurisdiction (e.g. vboxnet0). So we're left with two equally undesirable options - remove any interface binding condition (i.e. poor security). - develop a job polling for any interface status change with the task of systematically restarting smbd. when you bind on vboxnet0, wlan0 and eth0 interface status changes can be a pretty frequent event. So +1 for the wishlist. Why could smbd not simply listen (as in listener design pattern) to net interface changes and bind/unbind on any interface configured in smb.conf an when-available basis ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/374589 Title: Samba fails to start at boot when not connected to network (and specific interfaces are configured) -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
