[389-users] Expired password still allows samba login

2012-09-06 Thread David Hoskinson
We have discovered that if a 389 ldap account expires due to age, that the user 
can still use 389 authentication to login to our samba setup.  I have set back 
in time the passwordexpirationtime and sambapwdlastset variables to see if this 
blocks access.  It does deny ldap login, but samba can still access for same 
account.  Is there something we are missing in our schema in 389 or smb.conf 
file that will force samba to use the expiration date.

Our system levels are Oracle Linux 5.5

As i recall from my days as samba admin. Samba had its own attributes and
you shold use smb* commands to set expiration of password.

Re: sylpheed updates on Fedora

2012-09-06 Thread Christopher Svanefalk
The sad thing is that any packet, even if it is an application which has a
large userbase both inside and outside Fedora, will drop dead if the
maintainer leaves (there does not seem to be a process in place for
replacing them). I was very surprised, for one, that the Netbeans IDE had
been dropped completely for Fedora 17. The framework is still there, but
the IDE is gone.

 Download sylpheed-3.2.0-1.src.rpm from my webpage, and do this:

 That will get you a Fedora binary of the latest stable version.

Re: Screen resolution

2012-09-06 Thread Tim
Timothy Murphy:
 is there any way of requiring web-pages to use larger fonts?

Tim
 Some web browsers do let you do that

Got distracted, and didn't include what I meant to:

There usually are settings to set the default font size, which will be
used with pages that don't set any font sizes, or have used relative
sizing (i.e. bigger or smaller sizes, rather than absolute point or
pixel sizing).

And there may be settings for the minimum font size, and the browser
will not let anything smaller be used.  So if the author specified
anything from 6pt to 12pt text, and your minimum had been set at 14pt
text, their fine print would be 14pt in size.  Only larger than 14pt
text instructions will be obeyed by your browser.

 Is sylpheed on the road to becoming an orphan in Fefora?

A package in the Fedora collection is maintained by at least one person.
It can happen that this person leaves without notice. It can also happen
that there are co-maintainers, but the multiple maintainers don't
communicate with eachother. And it can happen that the package owner
owns packages without being active, and co-maintainers expect the owner to
be more active or drop the package and not pretend that packages are

how uncover what start iptables?

2012-09-06 Thread Frantisek Hanzlik
I have disabled (not masked) iptables.service on F17 box.
But occasionally are this services started. There isn't any
record about it in system logs. Is there some (systemd native)
manner how detect who start this service?
(maybe via inotify tools I'm able detect access to
/etc/sysconfig/iptables, but this give no information about
accessing process)

Second question about iptables: Is there any replacement for
service iptables panic command from old gold cheerful non-systemd days?

Thank in advance, Franta Hanzlik

 Some web browsers do let you do that.  Those with with the extremely
 minimal user-interface and configuration options mayn't.

 However, do this with caution, and test it out.  I've seen pages where
 you increase the size of the fonts, only for them to be cropped off.  As
 the author has specified small fonts constrained inside a fixed-size box
 or a form text-field box, which doesn't enlarge with a bigger font size.

 Some browsers change font sizing with a zoom feature, which will also
 increase the graphics size.  That may, or may not, be a desirable
 feature.


Incidentally, if you have a problem with a site like this that you
need to use regularly it's worth emailing them to highlight the
problem and also point them to the W3C accessibility pages
http://www.w3.org/standards/webdesign/accessibility


If you're dealing with a UK company it's a legal requirement for them
to address accessibility (while not completely familiar with the law
on this I think it may apply to all UK sites, however a bank would
probably be more concerned about it than some individual blogger).

Other countries may also have legal requirements for accessibility

CUPS Unable to add document to print job

2012-09-06 Thread Timothy Murphy
My network printer - a Samsung CLP-325W - has stopped working
from my Fedora-17/KDE laptop.
I've tried both the Samsung Linux Unified Printer Driver, 
and the foo21pdl driver.
In both cases I get the error
---
E [06/Sep/2012:12:39:38 +0100] [Job 37] Unable to add 
document to print job
---
in /var/log/cups/error_log .

The printer is seen by CUPS.

I've googled for this, and it seems a common problem;
but I haven't seen any mention of what the error means,
or what one can do about it.

The printer is working fine, since I have Windows XP on this 
laptop,
and have no problem printing from that.

I wonder if anyone else has encountered this problem,
or can suggest how to resolve it?

Thanks for your response.

I find zooming (Ctl-++ in Firefox) does give the best solution.
I guess what I would really like would be if Zoom In could be chosen
in some way as the default, with the option to Zoom Out if one wants.

Wrong SSD sector count with current F17 (right with live)

2012-09-06 Thread Michael J Gruber
F17 with current updates gets the sector count wrong (too large by 5)
for my SSD (Jetflash USB), resulting in read errors (during boot, fdisk
reading the disk etc.) for those sectors. While everything seems to
work this is not OK, of course. I'd be grateful for any clue.

Test systems

F16 with updates (kernel 3.4.9-2)
F17 live (kernel 3.3.4-5)
F17 with updates (kernels 3.3.4-5, 3.5.0-2, 3.5.2-3, 3.5.3-1)

F16 and F17 live are OK, F17 with updates is not (no matter which
kernel), where OK means no read errors. So the relevant difference is
not in the kernel but something else which has been updated since release.

The same difference in sector size is reported by fdisk and hdparm:

vs.
 geometry  = 15566/255/63, sectors = 250069681, start = 0

Interestingly, hdparm -N agrees in both cases:
max sectors   = 250069680/1(250069680?), HPA setting seems invalid
(buggy kernel device driver?)

But ignore_hpa=0 for the libata module in all cases (Fedora default).

Stomped!

I can provide the full dmesg, of course. Please help :|

Since I don't see how one can compel an owner to inform all when he
leaves (unless done voluntarily), perhaps one way out could be to have
co-maintainers be informed if BZ requests have not been acted (not
necessarily resolved) on for more than a month (pick a reasonable
timeframe)? At the same time, requests could go out for more
co-maintainer (volunteers) if the number of co-maintainers drops
precipitously low?

 I assume that the BIOS will tell you how much is taken by the Intel HD 3000,

 Another possibility:

  use imap only pop. Also as aside if you change identities in one
  mail compose window all subsequent windows will also be read-only.
  It stays this way indefinitely.
 
 As pointed out, I cannot reproduce anything like that.
 To be more specific, not even with multiple open compose windows,
 I can reproduce it. All windows here stay active/editable.
 
 Do you run normal GNOME Shell or a different environment?
 Perhaps you could describe the steps to reproduce more
 accurately?
 

I am running KDE on Fedora 17 fully updated although I am running
KDE-testing. The steps to reproduce are easy, open with compose or reply
button and then change the from address and you will not be able to
edit the email. OK, while was writing this email I just happened to
push the from change button, did not change it just pressed the button
and was no longer able to edit the email. Open another compose window
and was able to edit that, closed the new window and was able to edit
the original compose window. Just plain weird.

This appears to need the alx driver:

Which isn't on my fedora 17 box. You may have some luck trying the
compat-wireless packages:
http://people.redhat.com/sgruszka/compat_wireless.html
(yes, I know ethernet, not wireless, still, that seems to be where it is)

See also

It might be an SELinux denial. Check your /var/log/audit/audit.log
file or the SELinux troubleshooter and see if that's what the problem
is.

In F17, unless you did an upgrade from a previous release and told udev
to keep the old name, the port will be named something based on the bus
and device IDs, like p4p1 or em1 or something. Try ifconfig -a as
the root user to see if the device is actually showing up.

Some thoughts on this problem:

3 - you may have to bind mount a directory in a larger filesystem on

By default FC17 makes up odd names for interfaces, look at ifconfig -a for it. 
There is a config option to fix it, but no config option to use a MAC to name 
conversion file so the name on the card is fixed. I'm looking at that, but in my

If it were simple then LVM would be wonderful.  If, on detecting a new

to extend one or more existing partitions there?, it would be workable.
But it's not that easy.

 Since I don't see how one can compel an owner to inform all when he
 leaves (unless done voluntarily), perhaps one way out could be to have
 co-maintainers be informed if BZ requests have not been acted (not
 necessarily resolved) on for more than a month (pick a reasonable
 timeframe)?

They should know already. Co-maintainers can choose not to be added to
bugzilla Cc in case they receive too much bugzilla traffic for other
packages. But real co-maintainers would _actively_ monitor and respond
to bugzilla traffic as well as keep an eye on pkg git commit notifications.

In Fedora pkgdb you can see how many maintainers receive bugzilla traffic
for a package. If there are multiple people with watchbugzilla access
in pkgdb, but the tickets in bugzilla are not responded to, that may
be reason to be concerned. Consider contributing in such a case.

 At the same time, requests could go out for more
 co-maintainer (volunteers) if the number of co-maintainers drops
 precipitously low?

Difficult to answer. Some package owners don't like to have co-maintainers.
They fear a package might be taken away from them or that they lose control
over the package if somebody else is more active.
Hence it better be the opposite, that people with interest in a package
try to get involved sooner and become co-maintainers even in cases where
some primary maintainer seems to be active enough. Of course, once you
volunteer, it could happen that a maintainer would happily give away a
package to you and focus on something else.

What exactly do you find in it that might help?

One odd feature of the document is that it states
User-contributed Printer Entry
This printer entry was contributed by a user 
but was not yet verified or proofread by the site administrators. 
Therefore it is not included in the Foomatic packages.
What is odd is that I could not find this printer entry anywhere.

Also it says Discussion forum
Look for help in our forum for printers from Samsung.
but when you go to the URL provided,

Incidentally, I have exactly the same problem (with the same printer)
on two Fedora-17 laptops.

Actually, I have a kind of solution.
If I install the printer - using a different queue name -
using the AppSocket/HP JetDirect protocol instead of http or ipp
with the driver foo2qpdl , except that printing is only in black.

It seems almost as though there was a problem with the ipp protocol.


If you have a Network printer, I set my printer up as ;

lpd://192.168.1.127/PASSTHRU and it prints fine.  IF your using a router 
get printer IP from router.

Re: Fedora 17 does not see Atheros AR8161L ethernet device on HP h8-1320t

 I recently installed Fedora 17, 64 bit, on an HP h8-1320t.  The machine
 has an on-board ethernet port (RJ-45).  According to the machine's spec
 sheet, that is device is an Atheros AR8161L.


 Atheros stuff is normally wi-fi, not wired. I'm not saying it isn't the
 hardwire port but it wouldn't be common.


There is also a wifi port; and that seems to be working -- If I click the
connection icon I see a list of the various available wifi hotspots in the
neighborhood.  But I think the AR8161L is a wired device (and there is
_some_ wired device there -- I mean, there's an RJ-45 jack through which
Windows was getting to the internet).  The entry on the motherboard spec
sheet says:
 Network
LAN: 1000-Base-T
Interface: Integrated into motherboard
Technology: Atheros AR8161L
Data transfer speeds: up to 10/100/1000 Mb/s
Transmission standards: 1000-Base-T Ethernet



  Fedora does not see that interface device at all.  Dmesg and
 /var/log/messages contain no mention of Atheros AR8161L or any useful
 substring thereof.  There are no *eth0* files in
 /etc/sysconfig/network-**scripts.


 In F17, unless you did an upgrade from a previous release and told udev
 to keep the old name, the port will be named something based on the bus
 and device IDs, like p4p1 or em1 or something. Try ifconfig -a as
 the root user to see if the device is actually showing up.


ifconfig -a shows two devices:  lo and wlan0.

virsh and libvirtd

2012-09-06 Thread gary artim
I have a fedora system configured and running with virsh using
kvm/qemu. All I want is to have a fixed ipaddress for that virtual
machine. I know that there is the Host and Guest sides to the network.
The host has virbr0 interface, which i guess is a bridge. Seem when
ever I define a interface to the guest with a type=routed it hoses my
other interfaces on the host and requires a console reboot --
completely hanging the network. I'm no networking expert, but there
must be a simple N step procedure for defining a static IPaddress to
route to a guest machine? Has anyone got this working and have a
procedure. My network has 2 nic, eth0 and eth1 (10.0.0.253 and
10.0.1.253), one nic has a route to an nfs machine, the other passes
through a linux based router to the wan. I can alias the 10.0.1.253
(eth0) to another address in the subnet, like 10.0.1.251 (eth0:0)  and
would like to use it in some way to connect to the guest -- I have the
nat/routing working fine from the router to eth0:0. The network for
libvirt is confusing. It not obvious which side (guest or host) your
defining and seem to keep multiple definitions around, even after a
restart of libvirtd.service. An help would be great!

Re: sylpheed updates on Fedora

There seems to be only one maintainer to whom BZ requests are
submitted: 

Itamar Reis Peixoto 

Not clear if he is even getting these requests.\

  Since I don't see how one can compel an owner to inform all when he
  leaves (unless done voluntarily), perhaps one way out could be to have
  co-maintainers be informed if BZ requests have not been acted (not
  necessarily resolved) on for more than a month (pick a reasonable
  timeframe)?
 
 They should know already. Co-maintainers can choose not to be added to
 bugzilla Cc in case they receive too much bugzilla traffic for other
 packages. But real co-maintainers would _actively_ monitor and respond
 to bugzilla traffic as well as keep an eye on pkg git commit notifications.
 
 In Fedora pkgdb you can see how many maintainers receive bugzilla traffic
 for a package. If there are multiple people with watchbugzilla access
 in pkgdb, but the tickets in bugzilla are not responded to, that may
 be reason to be concerned. Consider contributing in such a case.
 
  At the same time, requests could go out for more
  co-maintainer (volunteers) if the number of co-maintainers drops
  precipitously low?
 
 Difficult to answer. Some package owners don't like to have co-maintainers.
 They fear a package might be taken away from them or that they lose control
 over the package if somebody else is more active.
 Hence it better be the opposite, that people with interest in a package
 try to get involved sooner and become co-maintainers even in cases where
 some primary maintainer seems to be active enough. Of course, once you
 volunteer, it could happen that a maintainer would happily give away a
 package to you and focus on something else.

USB HD (Ext4) does not auto-mount anymore

2012-09-06 Thread nomnex
Fedora 15 XFCE (the file manager is Thunar). I use an external USB HD
(formatted Ext4, same as my system) to backup my system. The drive
auto-mounts when I turn the notebook on.

I violently pulled the USB cable by accident. Both the drive and the
external HD were transferring data when it happened.

I turned off both devices, I checked the USB cable and the USB
sockets. After re-booting, the external drive starts, but it does
appears anymore in my file manager. I tried with a second portable USB
HD (also formatted Ext4). The lead turns green, but it does not
auto-mount either.

I tried with a USB stick (Fat32). I can see this drive in the file
manager.

How do I troubleshoot that?

Thank you,

Log attached.

I can see the portable USB HD (Ext4) in the file manager.

The USB drive I pulled the USB cable out is a 1T Backup driver. It
contains everything...

I pug the drive in another notebook, running the same OS. The drive does
not appear.

Can pulling out a USB cable damage a partition table. I am worry now.

You said you pulled it out violently.  Have you tried a different cable?  
Different USB Port?

The log entries don't seem to indicate that there is a problem reading the 
drive but more of a communication problem with the drive.
