[389-users] selinux problem with centos 7.1

2015-04-17 Thread Angel Bosch
hi,

I'm having problems installing a new test environment on centos 7.1

when I execute setup-ds-admin.pl i get this message:

Adding port 389 to selinux policy failed - ValueError: SELinux policy is 
not managed or store cannot be accessed.

I've tried with --debug and it keeps retrying every 5 seconds with same message.

# lsb_release -a
LSB Version::core-4.1-amd64:core-4.1-noarch
Distributor ID: CentOS
Description:CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503 (Core) 
Release:7.1.1503
Codename:   Core


# sestatus 
SELinux status: disabled


the only irregular thing is that im using an openvz container, but I have 
plenty of other DS inside openvz without any problems.

i managed to continue with the installation with a very dirty hack, I modified 
DSCreate.pm script and added a return in the beggining of updateSelinuxPolicy 
sub:



sub updateSelinuxPolicy {
my $inf = shift;
return 0;




did anyone got this same problem?

Re: TeX hyphenation

2015-04-17 Thread Andras Simon
2015-04-16 0:26 GMT+02:00, Aradenatorix Veckhom Vacelaevus arad...@gmail.com:
 Well this question seems to be off tiopic in Fedora, but you could ask
 it in a better place such as http://tex.stackexchange.com/.

It shouldn't be off topic, because, as far as I can see, it is
Fedora's changes to texlive that cause this problem. (I don't doubt
that there are good reasons for those changes, but still, this is
specific to Fedora.)

 Meanwhile
 you must to know that you can use the packages babel either
 polyglossia for hyphenate in another languages different from English.

Thanks for the suggestion, but this requires xelatex. (I don't know
how much of a problem that is; maybe it's a drop in replacement for
standard latex.)

 And of course, you need to install all the packages needed for that. I
 don't know how is in Fedora, but in Debian and derivations usually you
 have a texlive-base minimal working installation that could be enough
 for the most common uses, but if don't then you could add another sets
 with more packages, although install texlive-full.

 Even so, usually the version in the repositories aren't the newest and
 then you can't get the latest versions and bug corrections. For avoid
 all those problems I prefer get the latest version directly from the
 CTAN. This summer will be TeXlive 2015 but I don't know if that could
 be helpful for you.

I usually don't mind being a few years behind with latex, and I'd like
to keep using fedora's version. If there is _really_ no way to turn
hyphenation on for languages other than English, then it's a bug. I'll
do some more investigating, and if it doesn't turn up anything, I'll
file a bug report (and maintain my local \hyphenation{}).

[389-users] question about samba and account lockout

2015-04-17 Thread Kevin Taylor
We've been using the old Sun Directory Server (DSEE7) for a long time and have 
had things working in such a way that when a user on linux or windows locks the 
account after so many failures, neither windows nor linux will allow them to 
log in.

The way that was done was to modify the samba source code (in lib/smbldap.c) to 
point the SambaKickoffTime variable to pwdaccountlockedtime from the LDAP 
server. This worked.

We want to move to the 389 directory server and perform the same function, but 
I'm having some issues. The pwdaccountlockedtime isn't there anymore. When the 
account locks, I see that we have the accountunlocktime attribute being set.

Unfortunately, I can't use that field for samba since it's looking for unix 
time in seconds. The default value of accountunlocktime is Jan 1 1970, so samba 
thinks that this is some date in the year 600,000+. 

So, are any of the following things possible? If so, how can I do it?

1) When an account locks out on the DS, automatically set the SambaKickoffTime 
attribute in DS to the current time in seconds

2) Change the default value of accountunlocktime to 00Z instead of 
1970

3) Change the format of the sambakickofftime inside of samba so that it will 
acknowledge what the DS offers it.

4) Some other way to get samba to acknowledge that account cannot login 
automatically upon lockout from DS.

Thanks for your help.

Use the srpms, remove the  --with-selinux line in the configure and build it.

Hi.
I am running F21, but manpage does not show

I searched the manpage for the word product and did not find such a word.

So, which version of fedup has the --product arg?

Thanx
The only version of fedup that required the --product argument was the 
upgrade from Fedora 20 to 21, since products didn't exist before 21. To 
go from Fedora 21 to Fedora 22, you'll simply need to add the --network 
and --22 arguments, since your product is already in /etc/os-release.

Before the fix rolled in for F21, I used this command in a terminal to

Well, I followed Fedora wiki, but now I see that the option is not

Nevertheless, the option exists and it works!

 Have you looked at texlive-babel-italian ,

Yes, I'm using texlive-babel-hungarian, but latex says

Package magyar.ldf Warning: All Hungarian hyphenation= patterns missing.
(magyar.ldf)To make LaTeX hyphenate Hungarian words, please
(magyar.ldf)modify language.dat and rerun initex or texconfig.

But language.dat starts with

DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE (language.dat)! It is generated by tlmgr.

and tlmgr seems to be missing from Fedora's version of texlive. Full circle.

 There seem to be a large number of languages covered in this way.
 also the associated texlive-babel-italian-doc , or whatever.

 I admit that when I have tried this before (with hebrew and ancient greek)
 I did have problems finding the appropriate fonts.

Fortunately, hungarian is not that  bad in this respect. I just have to stick

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin2]{inputenc}

in the preamble.

If you're having trouble providing requested information or sufficient
context for a bug, the qa list (t...@lists.fp.o) might be a good place to
ask for help.  Also remember that different symptoms may share and
underlying cause, wrt duplicate marked bugs.

Basically, problems that are not reported are less likely to be fixed.
What you do with that is up to you.  The best way to have an answer to your
question is to file a bug and see it through, or if it's a common problem,
find a bug already filed and CC yourself.  You could ask for help here in
remedying the issue, and determining if configuration or code are at
fault.

If you don't want to file a bug, fine; if you don't want to continue the
discussion about configuration, that's fine too.  Do consider the audience
you sent this mail to, though.  It isn't the power management subsystem
developer community, and even if it were, I don't think what you're doing
would be motivating.

Did you update YOUR BZ to state that the symptoms and side effects were
different than the one they referred to? Keep in mind that there are
different people triaging BZs than those who actually do the work
fixing things and the triagers may have just looked at the description
superficially and marked it duplicate. They do get a LOT of duplicate
reports, after all.

You could also post over on the fedora-devel list. Make sure you tell
them that you BZ'd it and it was blown off as a dupe when it really
isn't.


Sorry, meant the fedora-test list.

 If you're having trouble providing requested information or sufficient
 context for a bug, the qa list (t...@lists.fp.o) might be a good place to
 ask for help.  Also remember that different symptoms may share and
 underlying cause, wrt duplicate marked bugs.
 
 Basically, problems that are not reported are less likely to be fixed.
 What you do with that is up to you.  The best way to have an answer to your
 question is to file a bug and see it through, or if it's a common problem,
 find a bug already filed and CC yourself.  You could ask for help here in
 remedying the issue, and determining if configuration or code are at
 fault.
 
 If you don't want to file a bug, fine; if you don't want to continue the
 discussion about configuration, that's fine too.  Do consider the audience
 you sent this mail to, though.  It isn't the power management subsystem
 developer community, and even if it were, I don't think what you're doing
 would be motivating.

I agree, I have to say, BZ has been very good in most of my cases: however, it 
also depends on the respondent. An example of a bug not having been fixed is 
the one on ssh-agent not started in LXDE which has been pending since F14 -- I 
gave up on lxdm and replaced it with slim. (Lately, I have gone away from using 
any DE so this is not at all an issue anymore for me).

Btw, I always thought that this hibernate not enabled by default without hoops 
was a decision (feature) of Fedora maintainers since F20 and not really a 
reportable bug. But it would help to get it reversed. (Why should a feature 
which exists in the kernel be disabled by default? -- linux is supposed to be 
about the ability to do stuff...not meaning to start a war here, but it really 
needs revisiting).

So, please go ahead and report it: you may well be pleasantly surprised.

Did you update YOUR BZ to state that the symptoms and side effects were
different than the one they referred to? Keep in mind that there are
different people triaging BZs than those who actually do the work
fixing things and the triagers may have just looked at the description
superficially and marked it duplicate. They do get a LOT of duplicate
reports, after all.

You could also post over on the fedora-devel list. Make sure you tell
them that you BZ'd it and it was blown off as a dupe when it really
isn't.

 What is the right way to enable hyphenation for languages other than

 Is the situation as bad as described here?
 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Talk:Features/TeXLive#hyphenation

Have you looked at texlive-babel-italian ,
or whatever language you are interested in?
There seem to be a large number of languages covered in this way.
also the associated texlive-babel-italian-doc , or whatever.

I admit that when I have tried this before (with hebrew and ancient greek)
I did have problems finding the appropriate fonts.
