Re: [389-users] ns-slapd processes not dying
- Missatge original - Hi, We had similar problem before, but I am not sure if it is related to your case. The file descriptors that were opened by the ns-slapd process was all in a CLOSE_WAIT state. You can try execute netstat -anput | grep CLOSE_WAIT and see if there's a lot of dangling CLOSE_WAIT socket opened by ns-slapd. seems that is not the case. i can see lot of ESTABLISHED connections, but not a single CLOSE_WAIT. ex: tcp0 0 :::172.26.67.79:389 :::192.168.224.16:53143 ESTABLISHED 315/ns-slapd the quick and dirty workaround is restarting the instance every night. regards, abosch -- 389 users mailing list 389-users@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users

[389-users] SSL Cert Issue
Two questions: 1. I have generated self-signed ssl/ca certs trying both the certutil method from the redhat doc and also the standard openssl x509 req -new method. After installing the certs and enabling secure ldaps replication both result in slapi_ldap_bind - Error: could not send bind request for id [cn=replication manager,cn=config] mech [SIMPLE]: error 81 (Can't contact LDAP server) -8172 (Peer's certificate issuer has been marked as not trusted by the user.) 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) Is there a known issue with self-signed certs? 2. If there is an issue with the above, we may end up purchasing a wildcard cert for replicating across subdomains.

No, they work fine. Did you add the CA certificate that signed the server certificate as well? You can verify that the certificate is ok on the server with: certutil -V -u V -d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-YOUR_INSTANCE You are probably just missing the CA certificate. If you have it in PEM format you can add it via the command-line with: certutil -A -d /etc/dirsrv/slapd-YOUR_INSTANCE -n 'Your CA' -t CT,, -a /path/to/ca.pem The 'Your CA' here is the nickname of the CA certificate.

How to pass two routers
I have a client with a network at city A en one at city B A:192.168.9.0/24 B:192.168.0.0/24 Site A is connected to site B via a special Internet connection using a router-B,to which I don't have access. From the internet we enter site A through a router-A, and from there I can connect to site B via ssh, using the second gateway, router-B Is there a way to tell the server at site A to pass all traffic 192.168.0.0/24 to site B?

Running xrandr for kdm and after login
I've been playing around with a dual-monitor setup on my F13 install. I can run a command like the following to get them to display properly: /usr/bin/xrandr --output DFP2 --auto --rotate left --output CRT1 --auto --pos 1080x420 I added the above line to /etc/kde/kdm/Xsetup. When I start the computer or log out, the kdm does start with both screens properly aligned, but the login box is too high on the CRT1 side so it is cut in half. I don't know how to fix where the login box shows up. Ideally, I'd like it to appear in the middle of the DFP2 screen. If someone has some tips, I'd appreciate it. I thought maybe it's getting confused with such a wide virtual space, so perhaps turning off CRT1 will get it to center it on DFP2 properly. I changed the line in /etc/kde/kdm/Xsetup to the following: /usr/bin/xrandr --output DFP2 --auto --rotate left --output CRT1 --off Now CRT1 is turned off, but the login box is nowhere to be seen on DFP2. Once I log in, it obviously preserves my xrandr configuration. I'd like to have it switch to dual-monitor mode, so I tried adding the following line to /etc/X11/xinit/Xsession, but that doesn't seem to run at all. As I've mucked with the files, I might have broken something. Now knetworkmanager isn't starting, although that may be a different problem. -- Jonathan Gardner jgard...@jonathangardner.net -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

Re: Problems installing with multiple drives
Emmett Culley writes: For me this problem has been there since Fedora 12, with no problems before that. Actually, that would be about the time the problems stopped for me. This is one of these things that are devilishly hard to get right, for everyone. In my case device.map is always the same and contains sda and sdb in order. Yet sometimes upon reboot after installation no sda or sdb is known by the kernel. If I boot to rescue from the DVD it seems like some of the time all of the drives are there and in the proper order because chroot to /mnt/sysimage works. Some of what you described above sounds similar to what I am seeing in Fedora 13. I'll report a bug, but is it a kernel bug or an anaconda bug? I'll keep looking. This would be an Anaconda issue, however I'm not very optimistic that there is an easy solution. No harm from filing a bug, I suppose, but for the best chances of someone being able to figure this out, be sure to include every hardware detail you can think of; from the output of lspci, to dmesg after a regular kernel boot. I wonder if smolt can be leveraged to survey the install base and log which systems with which kind of hardware see which disks in which order. I think what's needed here is a very large scale hardware survey. pgppe5OAjP3vC.pgp Description: PGP signature -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

Is there an alternative that might be better suited for what I want to do, without requiring creating an .xtermrc from the command-line? I don't believe gnome-terminal uses xtermrc. - How can I disable the automatic conversion of email address and URLs to hyperlinks? I don't believe you can. - How can I make the mouse scroll wheel be used for scrolling back through the terminal buffer, rather than acting as an up arrow? That's what it does in the default configuration. - How can I change the terminal bell sound? I don't believe you can. You can turn it off if it bothers you. - How can I configure the terminal so copy is performed by simply highlighting the text with the mouse, and paste is done through shift-insert? That's what it does in the default configuration. I understand the default is to press the mouse scroll wheel, but I would prefer the method I've described, and the scroll wheel on my mouse apparently doesn't always properly work -- sometimes it simply does not paste, and I have to do it a few times. I don't understand why, because it's a brand new mouse (MS Wireless 5000). The wheel is probably too sensitive. If it sends scroll up or scroll down, you won't get a mouse-button-down event. - I found a link to copy and paste between a terminal and Windows running in a VM, but isn't there a better way than installing and running a separate program on both Windows and Linux for this purpose? http://www.linux-kvm.com/content/copy-and-paste-between-vm-and-host No. There's currently no direct way to do that.

Re: How to pass two routers
There's no need to use NAT, proxy servers, or oddball iptables rules to accomplish what roland described. As Dario pointed out, you have two options: 1) Set up a static route on each server in LAN A so that they use 192.168.0.99 as their default gateway and 192.168.0.98 as the gateway for the network in LAN B. You can configure the route using Fedora's network configuration tools. 2) Set up a static route on the router at 192.168.0.99 using 192.168.0.98 as the gateway for the network in LAN B. This will simplify the configuration of all of the servers in LAN A, since they don't need a route of their own. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
