some time ago, I ran fedup to fc20 and it worked perfectly. I booted into
fc20 and I had no serious problems. 
I have been without internet for many weeks. I used a hotspot to finally
run yum update, and it worked fine, ecept for the glitch of installing
kernel-devel

Thanks for the suggestion. I will indeed try it.
I have been under the impression that the package may be corrupted.

The only way to do that is to restart the vncserver on host prior to connecting

Re: system-config-services

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

I am lost again!!!
I cannot open the port:

5900/tcp closed   vnc
5901/tcp closed   vnc-1
5902/tcp closed   vnc-2
5903/tcp closed   vnc-3
or
from localhost:
5900/tcp closed   vnc
5901/tcp filtered vnc-1
5902/tcp closed   vnc-2
5903/tcp closed   vnc-3


while 
Using firewall-config, I check vncserver bot permanent and runtime,
Do I need to do something else?

systemctl status vncserver
vncserver.service
   Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory)
   Active: inactive (dead)

systemctl start vncserver
Failed to issue method call: Unit vncserver.service failed to load: No such 
file or directory.

one the server, I did vncserver and open :1

Both machines are on the same network
vncviewer fails  error 111 (unable to connect to socket)
remmina-vnc fails too (it ass the ssh password and sleep!)

It looks like to that I am not able to reopen this port, while it has works!
I am missing one point:

Both dbus.service and .socket are active without error

Sorry for my incompetence!

Since you're looking for a work-around, have you tried removing the
installed kernel-devel package and installing the new one afterwards?
It could be that you don't even need the files within it. In case there
are dependencies, plain old "rpm" knows how to deal with such a case.

If you want to verify packages, run "rpm -Kv …" on the file.

Depending on how much interest you would develop for real packaging,
you might want to read up on Fedora Copr.

Packages in the Fedora package collection need maintainers. They
cannot be "donated" as prebuilt packages. The last that would need
to happen is to make available the src.rpm files, and then somebody
with interest might adapt them and enter them into the review queue.

Mistakes in the packages. Likely bad/incorrect automatic dependencies
or lack of filtering of dependencies. Requirement to use --nodeps is
a show-stopper.

It's not for Fedora 20, so decide yourself.

You've been on these mailing-lists for many years, so you should know that
"Rawhide" refers to the development of the next version of the
distribution -> Fedora 21. That's also why the packages contain ".fc21" in
their file names.

yum update

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

When I update fedora 20, I get a glitch with some packages of fedora 21!

Should I remove rpmfusion-free-rawhide?

Packages skipped because of dependency problems:
    ffmpeg-libs-2.2.1-1.fc21.x86_64 from rpmfusion-free-rawhide
    x264-libs-0.142-4.20140423gite260ea5.fc21.x86_64 from rpmfusion-free-rawhide

I also had to remove vlc!

Thank.

 Also check to see if there's perhaps a SELinux alert going along with
 this. There may be changes to selinux configs that block sharing the
 desktop.

Hello,

When I reun system-config-services, I get

ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on

dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not

I checked:

But there are active.

What is wrong?

There are a lot of possibilities, but here is one way. Use that flag
suggested, and also run a nightly cron job which looks at the "account
experiation date" field in /etc/shadow (it's the next-to-last one -- see
`man 5 shadow`). This is in days since Jan 1, 1970. Compare that to the
_current_ days since that time `echo $(($(date  +%s) / 86400))` and if the
number is higher, drop in the webserver configuration which redirects to the
expired notice.

Sounds like you need some kind of diary program.  When someone pays
their dues, you record how much and when, and then set two future events
to happen.  An expiry date that disables their website, and an invoice
date for at least a couple of weeks before the expiry.

If you really are only a small group, you mightn't even need to automate
it, just use an ordinary non-computer desk diary.  But there are various
calendar programs about, and you can set what happens on those dates,
including running programs rather than just popping up messages or
playing alarm noises.  I dare say you could find one that would let you
run a script on a date that could do the emailing and account disabling.

i.e. Have a look at what "diary" or "calendar" programs you can easily
install, and see if any fit your needs.

Hi Chris,

Is it possible for us to reproduce this? If so, what are the steps?

You'd need a webex account.


Hmm, there's no way to reproduce it with the test meeting [0] ?



After some more playing it seems the issue is when I try to share my

So the Webex applet is successfully starting with both, then?



That is what's so weird is it works like a champ in F19. I assume

I haven't found any complaint in any log file though.

Do you have any log files at all to share? You can also try launching
your browser from terminal (assuming this is starting through a 
browser

at all), and capture the output with a redirect or tee there.

Also, just a note that IcedTea-Web 1.5 is available for Fedora 19 as
well. Although if you appear to be having problems after the 1.5 
update,

I wouldn't recommend you update to it yet - not until we figure out
what's going on here! With 1.5 on both Fedora 19 (native) and 20 (VM),
Webex works fine, but I haven't tried this 'share desktop' 
functionality.

Also check to see if there's perhaps a SELinux alert going along with
this. There may be changes to selinux configs that block sharing the
desktop.


I don't know a lot about selinux, but I used the SELinux management 
tool to just disable SELinux.




So, I assume SELinux is out of the picture for now.

But, I think it is probably some local configuration issue like that.

Putting SELinux into permissive mode, would have been plenty. Setting 
the machine to disabled will only take place on the next reboot.


If SELinux is blocking the web browser from sharing desktop you could 
turn off one of these booleans, which would probably fix your problem.


unconfined_chrome_sandbox_transition --> on
unconfined_mozilla_plugin_transition --> on
setsebool -P unconfined_chrome_sandbox_transition 0
setsebool -P unconfined_mozilla_plugin_transition 0

You would need to restart the browser.


I have rebooted many times after disabling SELinux, it was getting in 
the way of other issues and so for the time being I just want to get it 
out of the way. Thanks for the pointers though. Once I get things right 
I'll re-enable it and make sure to make the changes you recommend.

I don't plan on doing any full-scale mining, I just wanted to see the
process.. At least I have bitcoin installed, have my own wallet and a
miner installed. Yeah, I know it crashed, but I was just curious to see
how it works..

You are better off buying bitcoin than mining it right now. Last I checked
it's down in the $450s (from last year's bubble of above $1,500)

Yes polkit.  The curious thing is that polkit default configuration is

admin user (in wheel) group: allow user password
non admin user: require root password

I'd only recommend doing this for fun. Mining bitcoins is probably going

fail2ban on fc20

[David Mehler]

Hello,

Is anyone running fail2ban on fc20 with firewalld? I'm trying to get
this working and finding a lot of bug reports on this but not an rpm
that goes out of the box.

I'd prefer not to have to revert to iptables but I want to stop brute
force attempts.

Thanks.
Dave.

Re: perl

YEs,

Thank you.

I found the issue.

There were 2 perl-PDL installed for a while.
I cleaned every things right.

The error says that one of your machines has a version of PDL
installed that was built against the wrong version of Perl. You have
Perl 5.18 installed, but the PDL library was build for Perl 5.16. PDL
is an "XS-based" library. That means that a lot of it is made up of C
code. Perl doesn't guarantee binary compatibility between major
versions so XS-based libraries need to be rebuilt for a new version.

The question then becomes, how did your system get into that state. I
can suggest two possibilities.

1/ Your system was upgraded from a previous version of Fedora which
was running Perl 5.16 and for some reason the upgrade didn't pull in
the new version of the RPM. You say that both systems have the same
perl-PDL installed, but how similar are they? They might be the same
version number but built for different Perl versions (or, rather,
different versions of Fedora). What do you get if you run 'rpm -q
perl-PDL' on each of the systems?

If this is the problem, then you can probably fix it by running "yum
reinstall perl-PDL".

2/ Your system was upgraded from previous version of Fedora which was
running Perl 5.16 and that older installation had a version of PDL
which was installed through cpan, not rpm/yum. It's possible that the
cpan-installed version is in an different directory to the
yum-installed version and that the cpan-installed version's directory
appears earlier on the @INC path. This would mean the Perl completely
ignores the yum-installed version. Try running these three command and
report back what you get.

perl -MPDL -le'print $INC{"PDL.pm"}'
rpm -ql perl-PDL | grep PDL.pm
perl -le'print $_ for @INC'

Hope this helps,

Dave...

You have to get the rpm from the webmin site, then do a 'yum localinstall'.

Anyway, that is how I do it.

There are running fine, however, 1 or 2 may require to be installed

packages are already installed!

You have two option either ignore or enter password. If you ignore it
will give you access to the unetbootin but not allow you to write or
format the disk, which is obvious, and on the other hand if you do
enter root password it gets access to your flash drive.

remmina

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

I was trying to terminate (logout or close) a remmina-vnc session,
not just disconnect!
When I reconnect, I wish to start a brand new session.

Thank.

webmin

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

I was unable to install webmin by using yum:
"nothing to do"!

Hence, I was wondering it there some conflicts with fedora or
if it just not recommanded to use it!

Thank.

I would strongly advise checking the Evolution mailing list archives
(https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list) where there has
been recent discussion of this. 2.32 is a really old version and data
formats have changed substantially. That said, a lot depends on your
account setup. If you keep everything on IMAP it will be a lot less
painful.

I thought I'd give this a try, and ran it from the menu, since it was
listed there, only to get this warning message:

   UNetbootin must be run as root.  Close it, and re-run using either:
   sudo /usr/bin/unetbootin

spring to mind:

If it really *requires* to be run as root, why is it in a menu where it
cannot?  We don't have a "run as" (someone else) option like Windows
has.  Well, at least the mate desktop does not.

Why doesn't the menu call it in a way where appropriate permissions are
requested as you call it?  Other things that need it, such as various
system configurators, get you to type in your password, or the root
password, before the thing continues on.

If it has to be run from the command line, why's there a menu entry?

Have I missed something?  (Before I go through the tortures of trying to
make a bugzilla report.)


the run as root - KDE su box says " Command: /usr/bin/unetbootin
rootcheck=no"

so if it says rootcheck=no, why is it requesting root password??


Because it won't issue that command until you have responded to the prompt?

Disabling users after a period of time

[Renich Bon Ciric]

Hello, Fedudes!

So this is the situation:

I have a server called "El Servidor de la Comunidad" or "The Community
Server".

This servers provides old fashioned hosting to GNU & Linux and Fedora
enthusiasts.

Everybody has a shell and their websites are all in /srv/www; owned by
them and their group; allowing the world to enter.

Basically, everything has 2771 from /srv/www and up; until it reaches
the actual document root; where people have what they please.

So, since we're not an ISP; just a bunch o' loosers, we do not have an
idea of when a user needs to renew the yearly subscription, which is
$100.

Anyway, I thought of using usermod -e; which is the expire flag. But
this will not disable their websites along with the user, since the
files are out of their home dir; which we will never support.

So, I need good ideas on how to make their websites go away with a "this
guy doesn't pay... " message.

This is to avoid the possibility of somebody not paying for the service;
which covers the bills for the server.

So, if anybody has a great idea, this is the time to spit it out.

Thanks guys; in advance.

p.s. Please, do not pollute this email with rants about how 2771 doesn't
provide actual security or why should we put stuff at /home; which we
will not do. Focus on clean, simple, ingenious solutions, if you may.

so if it says rootcheck=no, why is it requesting root password??

I just installed it on my fedora 20 amd_64 system, and ran it from a
user command line. It brought up a " run as root" password box..

vnc

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

I am trying to understand the port configuration.

With firewall-config, I can set the part range of the vnc-server
let say from 5900-5903

Then as a user, I can open/kill the ports by using vncserver
But I do not understand the link.
:1 does not seems to by associated with 5900 or 5901?
how can I manage this?

Thnak.

Just to set the right expectation, #rpm on Freenode is channel for rpm5. The 
right channels for Fedora are either #rpm.org or #yum.
