An 'about:plugins' in Firefox first revealed it to me.  'yum info 
nspluginwrapper' verified that it was installed.  Since I didn't need it, I 
just did a 'yum remove nspluginwrapper.' But that's the brute force way.  In 
Firefox's menu: Tools->Add-ons; click Addons; click desired plugin, then 
'Disable.'

With both systems being NAT'ing firewalls where you have no
controlthe only way I can see around your issue is the "auto" double
ssh suggested previously.  It still does what you do now...but it does
it transparently.

Make it work in five minutes (mostly, learning GNS3, nice, thanks).

a) yum install xterm telnet PyQt4 
b) downloaded and untarred GNS3 source from
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gns-3/GNS3-0.7-src.tar.bz2?download
c) download dynamips 2.8RC1, copy inside GNS3 dir
$ wget http://www.ipflow.utc.fr/dynamips/dynamips-0.2.8-RC2-x86.bin
d) installed dynagen just in case 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dyna-gen/files/dynagen%20source%20_%
20Linux/dynagen%200.11.0/dynagen-0.11.0-1.fc9.noarch.rpm/download
e) maybe you should install qemu, dont know if it is needed for more
routers. I make a cisco ios work fine without it.
f) create an ios directory inside GNS3's. Put some IOS there.
g) configure steps 1 and 2, requested by GNS3.
h) ./gns3

Thanks for the tip, didn't know GNS3. Cheers.

No it cannot. Recompressing something that is already compressed,

Too much compression there is not. Best compression means getting
optimal balance between spent resources (time, space) and final result
(file size). Normally, you can add some additional compression, using
different algorithms and techniques. But compression time grows
exponentially.

The problem is xorg-x11-server.

Re: Firewall config and ftp server

[Edward. S. P. Leong]

Dear you ,

In Fedora 9, the iptables function config is good for working as the
following :
modprobe ip_tables
modprobe ip_nat_ftp
modprobe ip_conntrack
modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp

iptables -F
iptables -X
iptables -F -t nat
iptables -X -t nat
iptables -F -t mangle
iptables -X -t mangle

iptables -P INPUT DROP
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -P PREROUTING ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -P POSTROUTING ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -P PREROUTING ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -P POSTROUTING ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -P INPUT ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -P FORWARD ACCEPT

BUT now, how to re-config the format for applying to FC11 system ?
eg: include the following ?

modprobe ip_tables
modprobe ip_nat_ftp
modprobe ip_conntrack
modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp

Thanks !

I have always found about:plugins relatively useless in determining what
plugins are being used. Edit->Preferences->Applications (in F12) is
much more definitive.

They are called search engines, learn how to use them. People holding

how it works since you simply followed what someone told you to do.

The thing is, I want to do this precisely because my DSL connection is down,
so I can' t run yum from my Fedora machines (oh the humanity!). I did dl the
blueman rpm to the iMac and copy it over, but of course it wants a couple of
others as dependencies, which want others etc etc. You get the picture. I
guess I'll hope the DSL comes back up and I can do this properly, ready for
next time :-) Hmmm, it would be nice to be able to do some kind of web-based
dependency resolution (e.g. I upload a list of my installed rpms, some
remote service then tells me what to download to install foo). Nice project
for someone with time on their hands.

BTW the Release Notes for F12 claim that Bluetooth tethering works out of
the box. I guess I must have the wrong box.

Thanks for your help.

ntUniqueID - not sure, but as long as the object GUID doesn't change in 
AD, the unique ID shouldn't change either

If you are worried about losing any data in the DS, you should first

For the Live images you can keep an eye on the proposed feature page:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/LZMA_for_Live_Images

Current status is that support in the 2.6.34 kernel is iffy. Linus bounced
Lougher's initial pull request and only some clean up pacthes were accepted
before the merge window closed. Potentially he might pull in a patch providing
support for lmza squashfs later since there was an initial pull request
in time and it sat in linux-next for essentially all of 2.6.33 development,
but I wouldn't bet the farm on that.

I did test an lzma compressed live image (non-functional due to no kernel
support) for the games spin and found it was 10% (400 MiB) smaller than
the zlib compressed version.

pvcreate fails on large RAID1 both on adding new drive as well as new installation Fedora 12

Please note that /dev/md1 is net up as a single disk at the point of failure.

After spending significant time trying to get this to work, I decided to 
reinstall my system from scratch since I have a complete backup. During 
installation I set up 2 RAID1 arrays, /dev/md0 and /dev/md1 with the 
appropriate LVM set up through Anaconda. During the write to disk phase, it 
failed.

I subsequently installed OpenSuSE 11.2, and it successfully allocated the RAID1 
array, but on reboot, it failed, so I went back to a single drive Fedora 12.

I have not had time yet to check the bugzilla database or file a bugzilla yet.

It's because the implementation of sort only applies -n to one field. So it has 
to be restated for each field, as above. I would think this is a bug, I swear I 
used to sort IP addresses without all this effort using the old SysV sort 
command. In any case, this is the sort we have, it doesn't handle numeric sort 
with -n or -g very well, but we live with it.

If I think of it I'll test the bsd sort the next time I'm on one one.

Demo case:
  sort -n <

Isn't the basic strength of lzma a very big dictionary window?
I would have said this is not easily paired to random access (squashfs).
10% (of the compressed size) looks like a very good gain.

Further to the above, I tried again on a different machine with more of
the Gnome stuff installed, and lo and behold it (i.e. blueman) worked.
I'm now using it to send this.

Thanks again.

I installed F12 on a desktop of a friend of mine.
She is experiencing freezing in particular during upgrades

What does it mean???
In the mean time, after rebooting she got strange colors on the
desktop and all icon were missing...what shall I suggest to her in
order to recover??

I haven't done performance testing on live images. It is claimed that lzma
decompresses at good speeds compared to other options.
My expectation is reduced accesses to slow media (especially CDs and DVDs)
will outweigh other effects.
I have been holding off on testing things that need kernel support. If Kyle
lets me get squashfs 4.1 in rawhide or F13 and Lougher posts a revised
set of patches that will work with his clean up patches that have already
been pulled, then I'll look at doing some testing of live images and mounted
file systems. I wasn't planning on detailed benchmarks for that, just seeing
if things obviously sucked compared to zlib.

I ran into the same issue with my Motorola and 3Skypephone handsets being 
paired, but not able to connect with NetworkManager.

I hacked together http://www.eridani.co.uk/rfselect/rfselect.tcl which opens 
an RFCOMM session to the selected mobile phone, and with that connected the 
Mobile Broadband entries in NetworkManager appear and connect successfully.

Hope that helps.

about:plugins is a very lengthy report that shows that 
mplayerplug-in/gecko-mediaplayer is active and will support every suffix

Interestingly, the VLC plug-in and the gecko-mediaplayer support many of 
the same suffixes. Is that a problem?

Flash supports swf and spl only.

not bzipped:

As someone pointed, the scope of your question is too wide. An email
server is related with a lot of issues: dns and nameservers,
authentication, security, encryption, viruses and spam handling, client
options, maybe a web server, etc. 

This is a vanilla setup, almost useless in the real world:

You could be more explicit and ask puntual matters... after googling a
bit. This list provides great help, but you must focus a precise
problem. Personally, I'd like to know what are you trying to deploy.

KVM and screen savers

[William Henry]

On my F12 laptop I experience the following issue:

If my cursor is in a KVM instance (RHEL 5) and I leave the machine for a while 
the Fedora screen saver with lock does not kick in.  That is until I press 
CTRL-ALT to take focus from the RHEL instance back to my Fedora 12. Then the 
screen saver kicks in.  

Apart form being a little annoying it is also probably a security issue. If I 
want the screen saver to kick-in after 5 or 10 min of idle time and require a 
password it is probably NOT a good idea for the KVM focus to somehow override 
this setting.


Regards,
William

Could be your graphics hardware is not behaving properly. Maybe you 
could try kernel arguments like nomodeset, vga= or even 
vga=ask.

If none of these work, try partitioning the hard drive as per your needs 
with a live CD or a live gparted CD and boot with the Fedora DVD with 
`linux text' as the boot parameters. Then you could install in text mode 
and get your system up and running.

That should be sha256sum. Fedora hasn't been using md5sum for a long 
time now.

To clarify, several kernels ago the IPV4 iptables was defaulted to being
built into the kernel so it doesn't need a modprobe or insmod.  Ditto
with the IPV4 conntrack (snippet of the default kernel config file):

CONFIG_NF_DEFRAG_IPV4=y  <<< Built into kernel
CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_IPV4=y  <<< Built into kernel
# CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_PROC_COMPAT is not set
CONFIG_IP_NF_QUEUE=m  <<< Module
CONFIG_IP_NF_IPTABLES=y  <<< Built into kernel

So remove those items from your /etc/modprobe.conf file.  It is also not 
necessary to modprobe things like the NAT module and such...if
there are rules in your iptables config that require them, they'll
be drug in by iptables itself.  The "modprobe"able modules can be
found by doing a

ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter

Note that the IPV6 versions of those modules ARE built as modules and
will need to be either modprobed or drug in as part of the iptables
rulesets.

Keep in mind that the /etc/modprobe.conf file has been deprecated in
favor of the /etc/modprobe.d/local.conf file.

The man page suggests that -m can be used to specify modules that should be
included. I haven't tried that myself though.

I think the idea there was to pick something reasonable and not provide a
way for people to shoot themselves in the foot. If you really care, you
can set up the luks devices before doing the install and you should be able
to use them by supplying the key for them. If that doesn't work, it's probably
a bug that should be reported.

You could try filing an RFE against anaconda that it determine the modules
needed for any luks devices used during the install and make sure there are
included in the initramfs image that gets built.

The STOR command is the FTP command lingo for "put".  When the client
does a "put", it sends the server a "STOR" command.  It looks like the
transfer occurred, but the destination directory wasn't writable by
the FTP server.  Double check the permissions on the destination 
directory and make sure user "nobody" can write to it, since that's
who you've told ProFTPD to run as.

Vanilla kernels and nouveau

[Aioanei Rares]

Hi y'all,

I have the habit of compiling kernels from Linus' tree once in a while. 
The list of installed kernels on my AA64 Fedora 12 machine looks like so :

[ara...@localhost ~]$ ls /boot | grep vmlinuz
vmlinuz
vmlinuz-2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.x86_64
vmlinuz-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.x86_64
vmlinuz-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64
vmlinuz-2.6.33-1-gbaac35c
vmlinuz-2.6.33-05070-g64ba992
vmlinuz-2.6.33-05679-g4da0b66
vmlinuz-2.6.34-rc1-5-g522dba7

Now, the first vanilla kernel (aka the oldest) works OK with nouveau, 
and the Fedora-supplied ones do the same. However, the other vanilla 
kernels fail to show me a nice gdm screen, and after some flickering, 
leave the following in my logs :

195 (II) [drm] DRM interface version 1.3
196 (II) [drm] DRM open master succeeded.
197 (II) NOUVEAU(0): [drm] nouveau interface version: 0.0.16
198 (EE) NOUVEAU(0): [drm] wrong version, expecting 0.0.15
199 (EE) NOUVEAU(0): 879:
200 (II) UnloadModule: "nouveau"
201 (II) UnloadModule: "dri"
202 (II) UnloadModule: "int10"
203 (II) Unloading /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/libint10.so
204 (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
205
206 Fatal server error:
207 no screens found
208
209 Please consult the Fedora Project support

(the line numbers are from my vim, sorry). So, the question is : should 
I file this as a bug in kernel's bugzilla or in Fedora's? Thank you.

It clearly is a connection problem. I can do
ldapsearch -x
on the server and it replies with a list of people that I added
ldapsearch -x 
does not return the same list.

Nouveau had an abi change. There was a big discussion about this on LMKL
because it broke some stuff for Linus on his F12 machine. There is still
an unresolved issue on how to easily do bisects accross this change. But
Linus didn't revert the change.

There could be a conflict.  Stranger things have happened.  Try disabling the 
VLC plugin: (in Firefox) Tools->Addons, click 'Plugins', click VLC and disable. 
 Quit and restart Firefox.  Check 'about:plugins' to verify VLC-plugin is 
disabled.

That's all it should support:  just flash files.

Best to eliminate all possibilities no matter how remote.  Too bad Adobe 
doesn't list checksums for the flash downloads.

gmpc sound not working

[Wendell Nichols]

I'm running Fedora 10 with the gnome desktop.  I installed the mpd 
(music player daemon) on my file server (where all the music lives) and 
gmpc on my laptop.  These things come from rpmfusion.
Every sound application on my machine is able to make noise except 
gmpc.  It doesn't have a config panel so there doesn't seem to be any 
way to choose between sound systems or any such nonsense.  It displays 
all the files on the server so communication is established.  Network 
monitor shows increased network traffic from my server when I'm playing 
a song, so I'll assume that music is actually flowing on the net.
Has anyone got this thing to work?  I would rather not have music 
cluttering up every box in the house when it is aviailable via server...

I've always had problems with the graphics (X-server) part of Fedora Live CDs.  
Black screen.  The CD doesn't have the correct driver, doesn't recognize the 
graphics card/chip, improper X configuration, etc.  For this reason I don't use 
Live CDs for installs.

Try 'ctrl-alt-backspace' key combination (this will kill the X-server) after 
the black screen appears.  If you are dropped back to a usable commandline 
terminal, then it's an X problem.  Use a full install DVD.  Takes a while to 
download, but it's worth it:  more drivers.

Also, be aware that with the 32-bit (i686) versions of Fedora, you won't have 
access to all 4GB of RAM due to limits of the 32-bit addressing unless you use 
the PAE kernel.  You'd be better off using the 64-bit Fedora instead.

kernel-2.6.32.9-70.fc12.x86_64 needs 219KB on the /boot filesystem

[Paul Smith]

Dear All,

When i run 'yum update', I get the following error:

Transaction Check Error:
  installing package kernel-2.6.32.9-70.fc12.x86_64 needs 219KB on the
/boot filesystem

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

icons vs. messages in gpk-update-viewer??

[BeartoothHOS]

The last couple batches of updates have shown lots of apps with 
the little round gray power button icon, like the one you click to shut 
down, reboot, etc. And the initial box interprets it as meaning restart 
(which seems generally to be spreading as a substitute for reboot).

But the message in the box after the update finishes says to log 
out and back in.

Has there been a great change? Or has the message somehow gotten 
bonkered?

Fedora IA32 comes with PAE enabled by default.
Still, it's better using AA64; also ctrl+alt+backspace is disabled by 
default . To the OP : what video card do you have?

Looks like you need to either delete something off the boot partition
that you don't need anymore, or make it just a little bit bigger. Yum is
trying to install an updated kernel and not finding enough disk space to
do so.

Thanks to all. I had already removed all old kernels. My /boot
directory looks like the following:

# dir /boot
config-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64 lost+found
efiSystem.map-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64
grub   upgrade
initramfs-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64.img  vmlinuz-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64
#

Any further ideas? How can I increase the size of /boot?

Re: [389-users] NB: can't login/connect to FDS

[Brad Fuller]

Here's some progress.
Originally I used ldapsearch with no arguments and received:
# search result
search: 2
result: 32 No such object

Which lead me to the conclusion that the client couldn't reach the ldap server.

I added the LDAP server to a thunderbird (email) client and it
successfully found users.

So, it's not a complete connection problem.
Why can't I log in? A PAM issue? Is there something I need to set in
ldap.conf for PAM that authconfig didn't set correctly?

ldap -d 1 returned

** ld 0x20eb70c8 Connections:
* host: 192.168.1.100  port: 389  (default)
  refcnt: 2  status: Connected
  last used: Wed Mar 10 10:21:53 2010

so that seems to indicate that there is a connection.

=
I don't have a clue what I'm looking at, so I'll dump the whole thing
here (sorry if that's a problem). Perhaps someone can point me to the
right area of the debug statement, that I can investigate further.

I appreciate your help

After installation, booting FC-12.

[zchry237]

Hello


List,

The installation of FC-12 went very smoothly.  I removed all external devices 
and unnecessary seated cards, to do the install.  Then, the reboot screen 
appeared.  I clicked on the reboot button, and the computer rebooted.  During 
the reboot procedure, the yaboot (the apple macintosh boot loader) screen 
appeared.  The following options were presented:

l linux
x macosx
o openfirmware
n network
c cdrom

I entered an l, at the boot prompt, and the booting procedure continued to boot 
linux.

During the boot process, an Oops! machine check 7... occurred.  Followed by a 
trace and other information.  The machine check, Oops, appears to revolve 
around ochi1394, or firewire.  Incedently, the computer's 2 external firewire 
ports, and the internal firewire port are no longer working.

With FC-11, this very same machine check, Oops, occurred.  Also, after loading 
all necessary linux software components, the login screen would appear.  After 
logging into FC-11's gnome or KDE desktop, a kernel report  (which was probably 
related to the Oops!) would be automatically generated and sent to whomever.

In this version of linux, FC-12, the boot procedure stops loading after eth1 
(apple wireless base station check), and simply stands still.

What changed in the boot load process?  Were additional stringent modules, 
components, checks, or procedures added?

The boot process does not allow the welcome screen to appear.

What is the possible solution?  I would like to know.

Thank you



Linux user

You DID clean up the old kernels, right? Do you have hand-compiled ones 
as well or what is taking 168 MB of space from your /boot ?

 Thanks to all. I had already removed all old kernels. My /boot
 directory looks like the following:

 # dir /boot
 config-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64         lost+found
 efi
  System.map-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64
 grub                                   upgrade
 initramfs-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64.img  vmlinuz-2.6.32.9-67.fc12.x86_64
 #

 Any further ideas? How can I increase the size of /boot?

Yes, I did clean up the old kernels. Please, see the following:

I don't think you need the upgrade directory. Did you upgrade in place
from FC11 to FC12?  It may be left over from that.

You sure, Steve, about that? Should I delete the upgrade directory?
And yes, I did upgrade from F11 to F12.

That's where the space is lost.
I don't think you need those old files from a previous upgrade anymore.

Paul, get ride of the 'upgrade' directory under /boot, you don't need
it. It is more than 100 Mb. (Did you preupgrade from F11 to F12?).

In theory NFSv4 does the remapping, but I coudn't find it either.  It
was far easier and faster to run a "find / -user uid -print" and just fix
up the uids.

It is things like this I miss from netbsd and openbsd.  They assigned
UID's to all their packages (eg. rpm's) and it didn't matter which order
one installed things in, the UID's were always the same.

Thanks to all respondents: I have solved my problem by following your
advice of deleting the contents of the /boot/upgrade directory. I have
meanwhile updated the kernel and everything seems to be running fine.
Again, many thanks!

Re: [389-users] NB: can't login/connect to FDS

Ok, I think I have it. The problem was that authconfig-gtk and tui,
from some reason, did not work correctly. I used the authconfig CLI
and now ldapsearch works.

Thanks for the pointers. I haven't logged in yet (can't right now) but
since ldapsearch returned info from the LDAP server, I'm _assuming_
it'll work now (course, we know what happens when one assumes )

thanks!

I managed to unpack the existing initramfs, add the twofish modules and repack 
it. Now I don't know how they are supposed to be loaded (there is no 
/etc/modules). For now I just put two modprobes into the init-script between 
pre-udev and udevd, which works, but is rather hacky. Does anyone know a 
better way?

In a way I did exactly that, works, exept for the missing twofish modules in 
the initramfs.

Will look into that.

If you had used AES I don't think you would have had a problem.
The default (at least as of about a year ago) seems to be:
Cipher name:aes
Cipher mode:cbc-essiv:sha256

Yunm /theora problem -

[Bob Goodwin]

Today's yum update choked on ffmpeg2theora.


Transaction Check Error:
   file /usr/share/man/man1/ffmpeg2theora.1.gz from install of
ffmpeg2theora-0.26-1.fc12.x86_64 conflicts with file from package
ffmpeg2theora-0.25-1.fc12.i686

Error Summary
-

I'm not sure why I have the i386 version and not the x86_64 version
but perhaps it came with one of the video applications I downloaded?


I guess I can try removing the i386 stuff and see if it will then
permit me to install the x86_64 version and then see if some other
app. dies. I have been working with some video cameras and may have
inadvertently caused this problem.

I guess what I want to know is if others have a problem with this
update or is it just me?

In the Debian-Ubuntu world, there is nfs-user-server package (as
opposed to the "usual" nfs-kernel-server) package where the map_*
options work (map_daemon when you install ugidd), so that is probably
the origin. Even CentOS 5.4 no longer has a similar man page for
exports.

nfsv4's idmapd maps ids but I don't think that, even though the
credentials that are exchanged are "u...@domain", AFAIK it will only
map the usernames on the client and the server if their uids match.

Hello Brian
Works for me also :)  The question arises, what has changed with the 2.6.32 
kernel (the kernel update that I JUST installed has the same issue) that 
causes this issue?

That is a very good question.  They only way I found the workaround is
by googling and finding something that sounded familiar.  But as to why?
Or How? 

I'm clueless.

Re: [389-users] Cross Migration Problem From FDS 1.0.x to 386 Directory Server

Well,  I just took a look in /etc/dirsrv/schema on my new (pre-migration

'presense' at all).  Maybe I need to run the migration in order to create my

Walk your way back up the directory tree to / and check that all the
paths on the way are readable by the Apache user (apache). If the
directories aren't executable by apache, it can't walk down the tree
to your files and .htaccess. Looking at your config, my first guess
would be that your /home/user directory doesn't have world execute
permissions.

seems pretty clear from the error...

Permission denied: /home/user/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check
htaccess file, ensure it is readable

Given your intention to run without any security whatsoever, you might
as well just do...

chmod 777 /home/user/.htaccess

I hope that you don't intend to make this accessible to the Internet.

Re: Problem with apache virtual host in new fedora 12 installation

Its stange because I don't have any .htacces file. What I have inside my web
directory is a single index.html file and its permission is 777. The user
home directory is already world executable by default.

But is the user "apache" able to access /home/user?  Probably not.

I'm a firm believer that, after some time, pounding one's head against
the wall is pointless.

Why not change the DocumentRoot to /var/www/user and give apache:user
access to /var/www/user?

mkdir /var/www/user
chown apache:user /var/www/user
cd /home/user
ln -s /var/www/user pubic_html

That way, the files are easily accessible to "user" and the files are
really in a place that httpd and selinux are happy with.

Wireless stopped working- F12

[woodson2]

I installed F12 around the time it was released and it picked up my wireless
card and worked like a charm.Suddenly last week everything stopped
working and I receive what appears to be a driver error when wlan0 tries to
load.

Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
invalid argument "if902c7885".

A quick google cam of with plenty of issues related to older versions of

Did you install the latest set of updates, which included a kernel 2.6.32. 
If so, you may have a problem with the new kernel. Try booting with the 
previous kernel.

What genius decided that?  Stupid.  Are you sure?  That little three-key combo 
has gotten me out of more than a few X-server lockups with Fedora due to 
misconfiguration by the installer.

Upstream X.Org. I'm sure if you search it, you will find lots of
discusions about it. You can always switch to a terminal and kill X
manually (or just the process hanging), or you can re-enable it in an
xorg.conf if you really want to.

Re: Problem with apache virtual host in new fedora 12 installation

Virtual hosts (generally) read from: 

 /var/www/something-or-other

With you specifying the something-or-other.  And the files owned by
whoever wrote them.  And all the way up the directory tree, world
readable permissions for files and directories, plus world executable
directories.  Owner and group permissions aren't used for web serving.

e.g. /var needs world r-x
 /var/www needs world r-x
 /var/www/html needs world r-x
 /var/www/html/homepage.html needs world r--
 (likewise for /var/www/different-web-site)

User home dirs are (generally) read from:

 /home/username/public_html

With username being the different user's names (their homespace), and
the files owned by whoever wrote them.  All the way up the directory
tree, world readable permissions for files and directories, plus world
executable for directories.  Owner and group permissions aren't used for
web serving.

If SELinux is being used, then contexts must be set correctly on the
files and directories.  They will be, by default, if you copy files to
the proper places, or create files in the proper places.  But if you
write files, them move them, they'll have the wrong contexts.

In the /var/www/ directory, I see files using the following contexts:

 system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t
 root:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t

But the user's home space should use different contexts.  If I create a
new public_html directory, it gets:

 system_u:object_r:httpd_user_content_t:s0

And if I create a new file in there, it gets:
 unconfined_u:object_r:httpd_user_content_t:s0

Note how the system web serving directory has *sys* (system) content
contexts, and user's web serving directories have *user* content
contexts.  Things get a bit more complex if you allow the running of
scripts.

If you are operating a public webserver, or a private one in a hostile
environment, then you are better to keep SELinux running, and set things
up properly.

Do *NOT* set files and directories to be owned by the Apache user (or
group), nor set files to be world writeable.  You'd be opening yourself
up, even more, to potential hacking.

Upstream, either Xorg or Gnome. One of the reasons, IIRC, was that
some people are using/could use that key combo by mistake.
