Re: [Vserver] Problem with nice inside a vserver

2006-03-10 Thread infowolfe
let me just say one more time, if you can't run updatedb as nobody,
the problem is a permissions problem... you indicated that it fails
whether the nice line is there or not. that means that it's not an
issue with the vserver and an issue with your vserver guest's
permissions/configuration.

can you give me a hint as to which distribution you're running?

 I don't have a -l option in my su. Additionally, the su command is
 called as part of the updatedb script which I would prefer not to have
 to edit, if possible.

 try su -l nobody and then updatedb
 
 see what errors are dumped then.

 I have a problem with the find cron job inside a debian vserver.
 
 The find cron job runs the updatedb script as follows:
 
 #! /bin/sh
 #
 # cron script to update the `locatedb' database.
 #
 # Written by Ian A. Murdock [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
 #Kevin Dalley [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
 LOCALUSER=nobody
 export LOCALUSER
 if [ -f /etc/updatedb.conf ]; then
   . /etc/updatedb.conf
 fi
 
 if getent passwd $LOCALUSER  /dev/null ; then
   cd /  nice -n ${NICE:-10} updatedb 2/dev/null
   # cd /  updatedb 2/dev/null
 else
   echo User $LOCALUSER does not exist.
   exit 1
 fi
 
 The updatedb script tries to su to the nobody user, but this fails with
 the following messages logged in /var/log/auth.log
 
 Mar 10 14:55:02 secure su[26501]: + pts/1 root:nobody
 Mar 10 14:55:02 secure su[26501]: (pam_unix) session opened for user
 nobody by root(uid=0)
 Mar 10 14:55:02 secure su[26501]: pam_open_session: Permission denied
 
 
 If I comment in the line with the # in the above script (and comment out
 the line above), things work fine (i.e. I don't get the
 pam_open_session: Permission denied logged in the auth.log). So it
 seems to be something to do with nice. Note that even if I remove the
 -n ${NICE:-10} things still don't work.
 
 Would enabling CAP_SYS_NICE help in this case even though a lower
 priority is being set? Or is there something else causing this problem?

[Vserver] slackware init

2005-12-02 Thread infowolfe
Just so that this is picked up by search engines, I'm emailing the
following info to the list:

applies to 1.9.x vserver with flower page style config

Slackware guest caveats:
use vserver $guest build -m skeleton to create your initial directory structure
copy/tar -xzf the packages you need into the $vsroot/$guest/ directory
make _sure_ you install tcpip and sysvinit packages
echo plain  /etc/vservers/$guest/apps/init/style

and everything should work as expected ;-)

vserver $guest start
vserver $guest enter

(because more than likely, your guest will _not_ have openssh yet)
