Why not read the man page?

$ man 5 group

DESCRIPTION
   The  /etc/group file is a text file that defines the groups on
   the system.  There is one entry per line, with the following
   format:

   group_name:password:GID:user_list

   The fields are as follows:

...

   user_list   a  list  of  the  usernames that are members of this
   group, separated by commas.


So the line for libvirt in /etc/group should be:

libvirt:x:977:todd,user1,user2,...

Hi Robin,


Ha!  I finally get to answer one instead of always asking
all the questions.

:-)


Install WoeUSB (as root):

    # dnf install WoeUSB

It comes with a gui and a command line option:

Find your flash drive (sd[x]):
    $ ls -al /dev/sd*

I stick it in and pull it out and see who appears
and disappers.  You can also us gparted


First, erase your flash drive.  MAKE SURE YOU HAVE
THE RIGHT ONE!!!
    # dd bs=4096 if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd[x]


Gui:
    sudo root -c woeusbgui

Make sure you choose NTFS


Command line:

# woeusb --target-filesystem NTFS --device Win10_2004_English_x64.iso 
/dev/sd[x]


This is Linux.  Everythig is possible!

I've demonstrated that it doesn't work.

FWIW, this thread has now expanded beyond the Subject.  I feel I'd be doing a 
disservice by
assisting someone to modify their system in ways I feel to be non-standard.

Until recently, whenever I made a bootable USB drive from an ISO-file,
to use it I had to go into the BIOS and allow "legacy" devices precedence
over existing secure-boot devices.

But recently, with the Fedora 32 stick I made, I had to disallow the
legacy devices as the ISO was intended for secure-boot.

Perhaps your CentOS stick is secure-boot, thus working for you
but the others need the "legacy" change to the BIOS.

I don't know why you'd want to set out doing that.  And I think you mean 
"virt-manager"

Putting "todd" is the libvirt group is really all that is needed.

But, I think, most things are kept under

/var/lib/libvirt/

as well as

/etc/libvirt

You may run into issues with things that may need ownership by root and or qemu 
as well as selinux contexts.
I don't know how well virsh would work under those conditions either.




my virt-manager starts as a user now, but the VM's
I configured are gone (back as root)

It gives a normal user entry in the passwd file.  Nothing special.
Not sure why you'd be asking that.  My uid and gid are not that of root or 
anything.

Well, the group id can be different on systems.  And, I think you're talking 
about /etc/group.

But yes, as I've already said,

[egreshko@meimei ~]$ grep libvirt /etc/group
libvirt:x:974:egreshko

Allows me to manage, create, all my VM's with no pop-ups and no need for 
additional authentication
once logged in to the system as myself.

Late to the game, but... I would add a "-t cifs" to the above command 
line just to be utterly sure. Eg:

mount -t cifs -o uid=bobg,credentials=/home/bobg/cred 
//192.168.50.149/home/share /media/smb

When you have that working, you can assemble the fstab entry from the 
working incantation.

It is very annoying that mount doesn't what _what_ caused the error(2).

One thing that occurs to me in the above command is that samba shares 
are not paths. Normally (presume a samba server and not a Windows 
server) the smb.conf has something like:

[sharename]
path = /home/share

and whatever other options. With that, what you ask to mount is the 
share name. So:

mount -t cifs -o uid=bobg,credentials=/home/bobg/cred 
//192.168.50.149/sharename /media/smb

You can't ask a Samba server for an arbitrary path, you need to ask for 
a share name.

While not a general solution, have you looked at this?

So, another bad side-effect.  You can't verify group membership using standard 
commands.

You can continue to use it.  I'm just saying I won't  I prefer things not be

Are you saying you've not placed your user in the libvirt group?




$ grep -i users group

users:x:100:todd
libvirt:x:977:root:users


I don't think/know that groups within groups work.


I didn't think so either, but my man page index was out of date, so I had to 
wait for it to rebuild so I could verify before replying. :-)

man 5 group:
group_name:password:GID:user_list
user_list   a list of the *usernames* that are members of this group, separated 
by commas.



Ya you can.  You just have to remember the proper syntax.
And I actually do know how.  Dang!

libvirt:x:977:root:@users


So, now, if you use the "id" command you're listed as being in the libvirt 
group?

FWIW, I personally wouldn't use that.  

$ id todd

groups=100(users),1003(fuse),985(geoclue),1001(autologin)

I'd put "todd" directly in libvirt.  I've my user name there and never need to 
authenticate when
starting virt-manager.

but it won't boot from the USB. It shows up in the BIOS boot menu, but
it won't boot.

I've tried to install the same ISO-file in Boxes and that went fine.
I've tried both Brasero and Disk Image Writer, I've tried two different

What am I doing wrong? Or is this nefarious scheming by Linux to stop
people from experimenting with alternative operating systems?



Hi Robin,


Ha!  I finally get to answer one instead of always asking
all the questions.

:-)


Install WoeUSB (as root):

   # dnf install WoeUSB

It comes with a gui and a command line option:

Find your flash drive (sd[x]):
   $ ls -al /dev/sd*

I stick it in and pull it out and see who appears
and disappers.  You can also us gparted


First, erase your flash drive.  MAKE SURE YOU HAVE
THE RIGHT ONE!!!
   # dd bs=4096 if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sd[x]


Gui:
   sudo root -c woeusbgui

Make sure you choose NTFS


Command line:

# woeusb --target-filesystem NTFS --device Win10_2004_English_x64.iso 
/dev/sd[x]


This is Linux.  Everythig is possible!

they work on both, but the windows ones might not be.

That's not a huge security hole and it doesn't let others sneak in
unless they have access to your user for some reason.

There's a hard-coded 5-minute timeout in polkit. (sudoers has a
"timestamp_timeout" option.)


That's also standard behaviour for sudo.


By default, sudo uses one timestamp per tty and allows you to run
sudo without authentication for 5 minutes on the same tty. You have
to change "timestamp_type" in sudoers to be able to use sudo on
multiple ttys with one authentication.


That explains a lot. Thank you.

In Linux, everything is configurable.

How do I disable this behavior?


You're welcome.

For sudo: "Defaults timestamp_timeout=0"

For polkit: not possible.



Thank you!

A common mistake is to just copy the .iso file to a USB key.   You want
the contents of  the USB key to look like the contents of the iso file.

It should not matter what OS is on the system disk when booting the Windows
installer (what the Windows installer does to Fedora may be an issue).

Re: Bootable USB and a Windows ISO-file

2020-07-05 Thread Thomas Letherby
For Windows I'd try formatting the USB Stick with ExFAT and then copying
over the files from the ISO.

Something like this: https://itsfoss.com/bootable-windows-usb-linux/ which
is the first guide I found, it's for Ubuntu but I don't think there's much
if any difference in this case.

You used to have to flag the partition on the USB as bootable, but don't
think I've needed to in recent years.

Installer iso-files that couldn't be put on a usb-stick doesn't seem to
make sense. The file is called Win10_2004_English_x64.iso
After the iso-file is on the stick Gnome Disks gives the contents as
UDF version 1.02 and it can be mounted.

I have to see if I can find any special instructions from
microsoft.com, although they would probably not cover how to do it on

Bootable USB and a Windows ISO-file

2020-07-05 Thread Robin Lee
I'm trying to do a very simple task on my Fedora 32 desktop but somehow
I can't make it happen.

I've downloaded a Windows installer ISO-file from microsoft.com that I
put on a USB-stick and tried to install Windows on physical machine,
but it won't boot from the USB. It shows up in the BIOS boot menu, but
it won't boot. 

I've tried to install the same ISO-file in Boxes and that went fine.
I've tried both Brasero and Disk Image Writer, I've tried two different
USB-sticks and two different physical target machines.

What am I doing wrong? Or is this nefarious scheming by Linux to stop
people from experimenting with alternative operating systems?

"source" is a verb?? Sorry -- you lost me. What does it mean?


There's a bash command called "source" that executes the script file in 
the current context.  That means that any environment variables that are 
set will stay in effect.



You can also copy the proper DIR_COLORS* file to your home dir to avoid
having a clean install overwrite your changes in /etc.  The paths which
the colorls.sh script uses are:

 $HOME/.dir_colors.$TERM $HOME/.dircolors.$TERM $HOME/.dir_colors
 $HOME/.dircolors

The first one found is used.


Sigh. The curse of the autodidact strikes again. I know that
"HOME" in all upper case has a standard meaning, and I suppose "TERM"
must, too. But I can never remember what it is, nor where to look it up.


Those are environment variables.  "HOME" contains the current home 
directory and "TERM" contains the name of the current terminal emulation.

Ah, thanks: I had tried to bring it up using nmcli, but missed this error:

I installed it:

dnf install NetworkManager-ppp

And was able to get PPPoE working.

I don't think rp-pppoe is needed, but have left it installed for now.

new Centurylink internet service, and I can't modify the modem settings once I 
put
it in bridge mode - it has to be physically reset if I want to change anything, 
like
put it back to PPPoE mode, or to disable the VLAN.

That's not important.

What is is Sharename=bobg.

So, on WS1 the command would be

mount -o uid=bobg,credentials=/home/bobg/cred  //192.168.50.149/bobg /media/smb

And back to sleep I go.

I'm pretty sure those are in /etc, not /etc/dnf.  If they're
in the latter, can you confirm that and check what package
provides them (rpm -qf /etc/dnf/DIR_COLORS*)?  I don't see
anything providing them.

Assuming you really meant /etc/DIR_COLORS*, then to be
clear, 1) that will affect ls rather than dnf; and 2) you
_are_ most likely editing the wrong file if you edit
/etc/DIR_COLORS.

The logic for which of the 3 files is used is in
/etc/profile.d/colorls.sh (for bourne-style shells like
bash).  Most modern terminal support 256 colors (at least),
so they'll most likely use /etc/DIR_COLORS.256color.

After you edit it, you must source /etc/profile.d/colorls.sh
to pick up the changes.

You can also copy the proper DIR_COLORS* file to your home
dir to avoid having a clean install overwrite your changes
in /etc.  The paths which the colorls.sh script uses are:

$HOME/.dir_colors.$TERM
$HOME/.dircolors.$TERM
$HOME/.dir_colors
$HOME/.dircolors

The first one found is used.

I found /etc/dnf/DIR_COLORS,  /etc/dnf/DIR_COLORS.256color, and

OK..  I see the problem is *not* on WS1.  The problem is on 192.168.50.149.

Let me demonstrate.

If I don't have /media/smb I get

[egreshko@meimei ~]$ sudo mount -o 
uid=egreshko,gid=egreshko,cred=/home/egreshko/.cred/smb //192.168.1.1/myUSB 
/media/smb
Couldn't chdir to /media/smb: No such file or directory

But, if I incorrectly specify the remote directory..

[egreshko@meimei ~]$ sudo mount -o 
uid=egreshko,gid=egreshko,cred=/home/egreshko/.cred/smb //192.168.1.1/wrongDIR 
/media/smb
mount error(2): No such file or directory
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log 
messages (dmesg)

So, the directory you Think is exported is Not Exported.

Check the settings on 192.168.50.149

If you change /media/smb to /mnt do you get the same error?

Did you check the journal for errors?

You should see something like

Jul 05 22:23:12 meimei.greshko.com kernel: CIFS: Attempting to mount

And maybe a better clue as to what file or directory is not being found.

I really, really wish you'd do precisely as asked.  This would avoid any 
confusion.

I asked that all fstab entries be commented for this cifs mount.  I had a very 
good reason for that.

This to avoid conflicts and to make sure mounts work manually before putting 
things in the fstab.

Worse, you said you "un-commented" but we have no idea what the line now 
contains.

Look closely

You're missing the final parameter.  You didn't say where to mount!  I wrote 
this out
You're missing /media/smb at the very end.

What to Mount, Where to Mount.

mount -o uid=bobg,credentials=/home/bobg/cred //192.168.50.149/home/share

newbie question about appimages

2020-07-05 Thread David
I know zero about appimages.

Today, I downloaded the very latest development version of Chromium as an
appimage, and tried unsuccessfully to run it.

Is that feasible ?

My understanding is that if the app is marked executable, then you just
click
on run in the properties.

You put the mount -o uid=bobg,credentials=. command in the fstab

That is not what I intended.

I wanted you to "execute" that command from the command line to make sure there 
was no
problem with the /media/smb directory.

Kindly remove that from your fstab.

And then "execute" that command from the command line to

I suspect your fstab ends there.

Remove the line

mount -o uid=bobg,credentials=/home/bobg/cred 
//192.168.50.149/home/share /media/smb


It is not meant to be an fstab entry because it was a suggestion to try 
mounting the cifs share manually issueing the mount command.


Much of it is trash I've tried, juust examples of "what don't work" and 
this is what I get this morning.


[root@WS1 bobg]# mount /media/smb
mount: /etc/fstab: parse error at line 23 -- ignored
mount: /media/smb: can't find in /etc/fstab.

Is the command not right?


Of course that fails because there is no matching entry in the fstab.

Yes, I asked him to comment out the line and then just try the full command

to eliminate an issue with /media/smb.  In a previous message he showed the

/media so it doesn't appear that the directory is missing.

Would be "nice" if he would attach the actual fstab so it won't be

FWIW, he never confirmed that he actually did comment out the fstab entry.

As noted earlier, the polkit timeout is hard coded.  That info is in the reply 
you quoted.

So, with that info given it didn't make sense to me that you should be asking 
about polkit.  Pair that with the
query coming after a paragraph talking about sudo gave me the impression that 
is what you were
asking about.

So, no, everything in Linux isn't always configurable.
