Re: [Partially Solved] Re: GRUB Issue? Console Fonts and messages?

You sure you want that? See https://developer.ibm.com/tutorials/l-lpic1-101-2/ " ... erase the words 'quiet', then 'rhgb'. This will stop the Red Hat Graphical Boot screen that fedora normally display during boot and also stop suppressing many of the messages that are normally generated." GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="gfxterm" gfxterm: does that result in small fonts boot messages? GRUB_FONT="/boot/grub2/fonts/RedHatMono-Medium32.pf2" I'd remove the line above alltogether in the boot command line and see what happens .. more on that later .. Please note the last two lines; one specifies the path to the font; the other is changed from GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console" As you remember the value in the last line above is what I have in my grub file, and not 'gfxterm'. I suspect with your current setup you're making things more complicated than necessary. You already wrote that you have now readable fonts on the console on a running system - so maybe turning on verbose boot messages by removing "rghb quiet" plus disabling graphical boot by ordering "GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"" will help giving you decent readable boot messages. And I suspect that without setting up specific fonts in grub might trigger it to read '/etc/vconsole.conf' ... The IBM page above seems to instruct how to change boot parameters for the current boot only: "When you see the GRUB2 menu, you can edit the entry that you want to modify by selecting it and then pressing e." and thus - I think - not change your standard boot setup for the following bootups ... So this approach seems to give a nice environment to test boot parameters before writing them down permanently into grub files ... Good luck!

How would I do this with firewalld? I can't address using firewalld, but I think you could get basically the same result by adding route entries; i.e. route the destination address/network to 127.0.0.2 or similar. I did this many years ago under Solaris. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
firewalld question
Say I want to drop/reject outgoing connections to a particular destination address (for parental control). How would I do this with firewalld? I tried firewall-cmd --permanent --add-rich-rule="rule family='ipv4' protocol value="tcp" destination address='aa.bb.0.0/16' reject" firewall-cmd --reload Then, firewall-cmd --zone=FedoraWorkstation --list-all FedoraWorkstation (active) target: default icmp-block-inversion: no interfaces: enp8s0 sources: services: dhcpv6-client ftp mdns mountd nfs rpc-bind samba-client ssh ports: 1025-65535/udp 1025-65535/tcp protocols: forward: no masquerade: no forward-ports: source-ports: icmp-blocks: rich rules: rule family="ipv4" destination address="aa.bb.0.0/16" protocol value="tcp" reject does show that the rule was added. However, I was still able to connect to the destination with no issues. In the past I did that with iptables and I can probably still do that now, but I think nowadays we're supposed to use firewalld, via firewall-cmd or firewall-config. The problem with firewalld is that it has zones, which are defined based either on network interfaces or on IP sources (or ranges), but not on the destination IP. See e.g. https://www.linuxjournal.com/content/ understanding-firewalld-multi-zone-configurations . What I need is to filter based on the destination address. I found this post saying that it's actually not easy to filter based on destination address with firewalld, and that we'd have to use firewall-cmd --direct to inject the filter rule directly into iptables: https://serverfault.com/questions/918754/firewalld-stop-outgoing-traffic- to-a-particular-ip-address But then, the documentation for firewalld.direct says this is deprecated. What I think needs to happen is this: 1. duplicate the default zone (Fedora Workstation) to, say, Parental Control 2. In the Parental Control zone add the drop rule to the specific destinations 3. switch between Fedora Workstation and Parental Control as needed.

fedora tarballs
H as anyone ever used these tarballs that fedora releases in a cloud service? I would think these would have to be bootable is there a particular way to boot in GCP or another cloud? I will look into it but if anyone does it maybe they have a couple of hints.
