 I've got a first cut of the rebase here:

 git://github.com/gwd/sig-virt-xen out/update-4.4.1-rc1-ee81dda-RFC

 To build it, you'll need to download the polarssl tarball:

 http://xenbits.xen.org/xen-extfiles/polarssl-1.1.4-gpl.tgz

 And you'll need a tarball based on (unfortunately) a private tree,
 which you can find here:

 git://github.com/gwd/xen base/update-4.4.1-rc1-ee81dda-RFC

 This branch is based on upstream ee81dda (the current staging-4.4),
 with an additional two backported commits.

 To reproduce the tarball, checkout the above branch, then:

 ./configure
 make -C tools qemu-xen-dir-find
 make -C tools qemu-xen-traditional-find
 make src-tarball

 *sigh*  This is wrong.  It should be:

 tools/misc/mktarball $PWD

 If you do the above command, you'll end up with a release-looking
 tarball, rather than one with the git commit ID in the name.

 Also NB, two things:

 * The src-tarball build target (and the mktarball script) is not
 available in the normal 4.4 tree; it's a draft of a bit of
 functionality I'm in the process if pushing upstream.  It may or may
 not end up backported to 4.4.1.
 * If you've already cloned the qemu trees, you need to run make -C
 tools qemu-xen-dir-force-update instead.

Como puedo yo hacer ping o conectarme a una IP en una red NAT??

Maquina virtual:
NAT
ip 10.0.2.15

Coming in the next few days, the big blocker has been working out what

As for it dropping you to a root prompt, not sure what's 
goin on there.  For me, when I used the netinstall, after various and
sundry things, it opens to an Anaconda (the GUI installer) window and
begins to install (after waiting for various input from me.)

If there is less than a certain amount of memory, it will then go through
the crippled text install which doesn't allow you to do any customization
unless you've set up a kickstart file.

So, if it's just dropping to a root prompt and not doing very much,
something might be broken. 

However, a description, even if brief, of the things it's doing might be
useful.

M510 is as affected as anything else with the tiny unified receiver. 
It's a race condition though, so sometimes it works, sometimes it 
doesn't. It's more likely to happen on boot, I think.
 From what I can recall of the Fedora days with the relevant kernels, 
un- and re-plugging the receiver or un- and re-loading the module would 
typically get things working again, though it could take a few attempts.

Re: [CentOS] Installing CentOS-7 but keeping CentOS-6.5

2014-07-14 Thread Ted Miller
On 07/13/2014 01:01 PM, Timothy Murphy wrote:
 I'm having trouble installing CentOS-7 on my HP MicroServer.
 I've tried with KDE LiveCD and Netinstall (both on USB sticks),
 and now I'm going to try with the DVD ISO.

 But I want to be quite sure I can return to CentOS-6.5
 if things go wrong, so I'm wondering what precisely I need to copy
 (eg the MBR and a bit more) so that I could get back to things as they were.
 Is this documented anywhere?

 Actually, both failed installations did give a boot menu
 including the old 6.5 system,
 but I'm afraid sometime this might not work,
 and I will be cut off from the world.

 Incidentally, the Repair option on the netinstall system
 was not as useful as I expected,
 or perhaps I don't know how to use it properly.
 It entered the new CentOS-7 system OK on chroot-ing,
 even mounting other partitions listed in /etc/fstab .
 And I was able to bring up the interfaces with service network restart.
 But although I ran grub2-install , this did not help matters.

 Is there anything else one can do after chrooting into a system?
 Eg, can one boot the system in any way?

 Any advice or suggestions gratefully received.

You asked what to keep to be able to boot C6.  From your narrative, it 
seems that the legacy grub boot for C6 is already gone (blown away) by your 
C7 install.  I haven't figured out enough about grub2 to be able to tell 
you how to preserve your current grub2 configuration, but here are some 
possible ways to keep C6 accessible:

1. The Super Grub2 Disk from http://www.supergrubdisk.org seems to be 
pretty good at finding any and all possibilities for booting using new and 
old versions of grub.

2. If you are reinstalling into exactly the same location as your previous 
C7 attempts (same devices for boot and root), just don't let the installer 
update the boot information.  Since you know it boots both versions now, it 
should still boot both versions after the install.

Not knowing what your installation problem is, I can't tell (and you may 
not be able to tell either) if anything is wrong with your boot 
information, or if that is OK.

3. From C3, install legacy grub onto a USB stick, which would allow you to 
boot directly to C6, without any requirement for anything to be on a hard 
drive.

4. It is also possible to set up a CD that will boot your computer, but I 
don't remember the details of that.

Hope one of these, or something someone else chimes in, will help you. 
Also hope you get the C7 install figured out.  So far I have only done it 
from DVD, and those went well for me.

 Replying to Les' comment:  the original inittab respawn method is
 completely brain-dead, blindly respawning without any thought for what
 conditions might need to be checked, etc.

 Just pointing out one of several approaches to respawning a daemon without
 the overhead of systemd.
 Replying to David: So you'd prefer the overhead of cron plus shells plus
 a bit of arcane syntax?  When I first replied to this crontab line, I
 honestly thought you were being tongue-in-cheek.

 I have a similar sort of kluge in place, on a CentOS 6 system at a
 client, that uses the autossh package to hold open ssh reverse tunnels;
 reverse tunnels are great when the client's machine is behind a
 known-to-change-frequently dynamic address.
 I went with this approach since the problem is not
 with radvd or its init script but with my IPv6 tunnel provider.
 Sounds like something that systemd's concept of process dependencies
 could solve for you with an easier (and non-executable) syntax. Systemd
 provides an 'OnFailure' directive that allows you to do whatever you'd
 like upon failure of an particular 'unit.'  That sort of mechanism might
 allow you to implement the process equivalent of Cisco IOS' IP SLA's.
 (You could mount /etc (and /var) noexec and have /usr and friends
 mounted read-only, even.)

 I wanted
 something that didn't require modifying any of the installed bits.
 This is why sysadmin configs for systemd are in /etc and the OS-supplied
 configs are in /usr.  Your /etc 'units' to systemd will override the OS
 installed ones, and are all collected together in one well-defined and
 standard place.

 This
 approach also means that updates to radvd and friends don't overwrite my
 modifications.
 This is why sysadmin configs for systemd are in /etc and the OS-supplied
 configs are in /usr.  Your /etc 'units' for systemd will not be touched
 by the updates to the OS-supplied ones.


 Just playing with the IPv6 stuff so having it down for up
 to five minutes also isn't a problem.  The source of the problem goes away
 when my ISP provides IPv6 and I don't need to tunnel IPv6 in IPv4 anymore.
 If you can figure out IPv6 then systemd should be no sweat.

 I look at systemd as being yet another nuclear fly swatter.  Overkill for
 simple problems that can and should be be addressed at the problem without a
 sweeping, system level change.
 I have done all of the various init styles at various times, so I make
 this statement having 27 years of experience dealing with Unix-like
 systems (I won't bore anyone with the list): in my quick perusal of
 systemd and its documentation, I'm cautiously optimistic that maybe
 finally we have something that a sysadmin can really make sing.  Time
 will tell, of course, whether systemd actually addresses the core
 problems or not; we've already had one round of an init replacement,
 Upstart, that didn't succeed in fully addressing the core problems (but
 will be with us until 2020 as part of EL6).  And I always reserve the
 right to be wrong.

 But traditional SystemV init last appears in EL5, which, while it is
 still supported until 2017, is two major versions old at this point. And
 in case you missed the announcement from Red Hat, EL5.11 is the last
 minor version update of EL5, with subsequent updates being released as
 they come and not batched into point releases.  (I now know my last
 targeted version for IA64 rebuilding, which is good.as long as I can
 put in some automation to grab updates from then on).

Hi Lamar,

Having been working with UNIX like systems since 1985
my biggest complaint with systemd is it so intrusive, it wants to be everything 
which makes
it vulnerable to bugs and exploits - umm.. like Windoze!

There is an old English saying Never put all your eggs in the same
basket.

If systemd has a bug or is exploited, because it does so many different
things, the resulting damage to a working system is potentially
significantly greater than if systemd did less functions.  As previously
stated by JH, its in RH so its in Centos. We have to accept it or go
elsewhere.

[CentOS] Disable auto window maximize

2014-07-14 Thread Steve
Job #1 for me with CentOS 7 is to disable the automatic window maximization.

Some googling found this command:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.mutter auto-maximize false
No such schema 'org.gnome.mutter'

and this:

$ gsettings set orh.gnome.shell.overrides edge-tiling false
but that had no visible effect.

I couldn't find anything under Applications-documentation and I didn't see 
anything in the on-line GNOME help manual.

I looked under Applications-System Tools and Applications-Utilities. I found 
the Tweak Tool but didn't see anything in there either.

Can someone point me to some documentation on how to do this?

Thanks,
Steve

[CentOS] latest freeIPA on CentOS

2014-07-14 Thread Johnny Tan
We're looking to run freeipa on CentOS-6.5.

It seems the version available for 6.5 is 3.0, whereas the latest 3.x is
3.3.5 (available in F19  20). And now I see 4.0 was just released and will
be in F21 (with support for native OTP-based 2FA!).


Has anyone attempted rebuilds against the F19/20 3.3.5 RPMS for CentOS?
Given the dependency chain, is it worth going down this rabbit hole?

Otherwise, is everyone who is running CentOS and FreeIPA pretty much using
3.0?


Since it's a new build, I was hoping we could start with the latest stable,
but not ready yet to run RHEL7/CentOS7 or Fedora in our environment.

CentOS7 has 3.3

I don't know if RedHat will backport it to 6.x like they did previously.

I think we will start with what is in CentOS 7.0 and see how far we get.
We will even buy RHEL-lics for it.

I certainly don't want to run Fedora in production - and I don't want
to do the backport for  such a complicated piece of software myself.

 Sigh, nothing like a zealot. ALL OS's have vulns and exploits, no matter

 Sigh, nothing like someone who is in a constant state of deniability.


  Ok, I posted last week a question in this list about configuring
two interfaces, one of which being a bridge, to get dhcp and make the
bridge one be the primary one as far as which dns and router to pick.

Using systemd only was my requirement. i.e. using /etc/systemd/system/
instead of /etc/sysconfig/network{,-scripts}.

The replies I got were oh, you can still use
/etc/sysconfig/network{,-scripts} with systemd *for now*, so you can
kludge it together. What's the point then? systemd is supposed to
handle something as simple as two little interfaces; I am not even
talking about vlans and virtual interfaces. I know how to do it using
/etc/sysconfig/network{,-scripts}, but that is besides the point. If
systemd is the Way of the Future, I should be able to do this simple
configuration in it in CentOS 7. After all, with CentOS 7, systemd is
the de facto way to do things, right?

I do sound annoyed because I am: I keep hearing about how systemd is
going to liberate us from the Old White Man way of doing things, and
I am willing to be the devil's advocate here for I plan on using Linux
in the foreseeable future. But, if it cannot deliver me two little
interfaces up and running -- not asking for cookies and a massage but
would not turn them down if I get my interfaces up and happy -- I do
have an issue.

So, for those who know the Way of The systemd, please show me here or
in my thread (so we keep this one on-topic) how to do that in a
completely systemd-networkd way (and why what I wrote is boink). Is
that too much to ask?

Openssl doesn't have much to do with Unix/linux.  It is just one of a

But init/upstart/systemd are very special things in the unix/linux

everything else, the only way to create a process is fork(), with it's
forced inheritance of environment and security contexts.

In any case, giant monolithic programs that try to do everything

rare.  First, it takes years to fix the worst of the bugs - but maybe
that has already happened in fedora...  And after that it is an
improvement only if the designers really did anticipate every possible
need.   Otherwise the old unix philosophy that processes are cheap -
if you need another one to do something, use it - is still in play.
If you need something to track how many times something has been
respawned or to check/clean related things at startup/restart you'll
probably still need a shell there anyway.

OpenSSL is a library, not an application, but I understand where you're
going with this.  No you wouldn't include all Windows apps, but you would
include anything that's immediately available to Windows.  Same principle
here.  We wouldn't measure Oracle, like we wouldn't SQL server but we would
OpenSSL because it's available in the repo and not third party.



 But init/upstart/systemd are very special things in the unix/linux
 ecosystem.  They become the parent process of everything else.  For
 everything else, the only way to create a process is fork(), with it's

Yes, they sure are, you're right about that.  Without an init (of any
kind), you only have a kernel.  You don't have mounted filesystems, or
anything else.



 In any case, giant monolithic programs that try to do everything
 sometimes become become better than a toolbox, but it tends to be
 rare.  First, it takes years to fix the worst of the bugs - but maybe

It's very rare.  I wasn't speaking to this though in this instance, I was
only speaking to Windows security not being any better or worse than
anything else.  Security is only as good as your admins and your
implementation.  It's also an on-going process on any platform.  I was just
pointing out that it's beyond silly to because windows is less secure!.

This shouldn't be required.  The rc-local.service should automatically
start in the multi-user.target if the file /etc/rc.d/rc.local exists,
and is executable.

Make sure you're using /etc/rc.d/rc.local and not /etc/rc.local.
There should already be a compatibility symlink (same as in EL6).

 CentOS7 has 3.3

 I don't know if RedHat will backport it to 6.x like they did previously.

 I think we will start with what is in CentOS 7.0 and see how far we get.
 We will even buy RHEL-lics for it.

 I certainly don't want to run Fedora in production - and I don't want
 to do the backport for  such a complicated piece of software myself.


​RH will *not* do a backport of 3.3 to RHEL 6.x.

Alexander Bokovoy (from Red Hat) on the freeipa-users list (feb. 17):
RHEL 6.x lacks many of the dependencies required for IPA 3.3. Newer
MIT Kerberos (with API and ABI change for KDC database driver and many
other changes required for trusts and two-factor authentication), newer
Dogtag which relies on several dozens of Java packages and newer tomcat,
systemd (we use socket activation and tmpfiles.d a lot), newer SSSD.
Kerberos ccache stored in the kernel space (KEYRING ccache type)
requires changes at kernel level which are also needed for kerberized
NFSv4 for trusts as AD users have large Kerebros tickets when they are
members of many groups and so on.

On the contrary - it means his services start just fine without

 Thanks for the info. We'll stick with 6.5 / 3.0 for now and hope the
upgrade path is not strenuous. From first glances, it seems the manual part
is going from 3.1 to something above, with the DogTag change. Hopefully
that's the only laborious part.

William didn't say that it was ancient, I did.  If you think that 5.x is

Hi,

Best way to-do this and one that is reversible if needed.

- Open terminal.
- Do: 'cd /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme'
- Do: 'sudo cp -f noise-texture.png noise-texture.png.orig'
- Pick a wallpaper that is 'png' and the same resolution as your screen.
- Do: 'sudo cp -f /path_to/my_image.png noise-texture.png'

You may need to experiment with the size of the image to match your
resolution.

To reverse the changes:

- Do: 'cd /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme'
- Do: 'sudo cp -f noise-texture.png.orig noise-texture.png'
- Do: 'sudo rm -f noise-texture.png.orig'

Side note:

Why I say same resolution as screen is that the noise-texture.png that
is used is smaller than the screen and then tiled. If you wished, you
could create a funky smaller patterned image that will tile to make for
a more consistent background. Hmm... something like a (hint hint) darker
blue CentOS inspired look rather than the grey - god who chose drab
grey. :-(

 from a 6.x server could be a literal order of magnitude slower. It took
 us over a year to find that if we added nobarrier to the filesystems
 that it was  10% slower.

It means that your script is not correct[1] and by error tries to load a 
helper module which does not exist. So fix your script.

[1] cat | grep | awk constructs are far from being elegant.

[CentOS] List attitude and content

2014-07-14 Thread Karanbir Singh
hi folks,

Can we please:
1) keep it civil, be polite - if you have nothing meaningful to
contribute to the thread, then dont contribute anything

2) Keep it on context, this isnt the place to talk about old hardware
stories and personal fluffery like that. This is the CentOS users list,
keep content to whats relevant to the CentOS users.

Regards

 perhaps you should change your username from Always Learning, as it 
 appears you've decided to stop as of about 5 years ago.

Optimistically I will continue learning about a wide range of differing
subjects until I die, probably in about 10 years or so.

I continue to learn new things about C5, and the programmes than run on
it, the BSDs, Linux kernel, minor CSS syntaxes. It is fascinating.

Next month I hope to enrol in German and Polish evening classes. I would
have preferred Norwegian (Bokmal) and Dutch (Nederlands) but the local
college don't have them. In November I would like to start a law
degree :-)

I am never complacent and tomorrow I do the first of the compulsory 3
tests for my motorbike licence (theory and hazard perception, despite
riding my bike for the last year as a Learner) - I'm definitely Always
Learning and not ashamed to admit it.

Centos is clearly a refreshing and invigorating breeze compared to
Windoze. Having about 47 years years experience as a computer
programmer, I am naturally reticent about systemd - but then every
clever and thinking person would be too. I've experienced too many
computer problems to trust everything to script kiddies or their
grown-up enthusiastic cousins.

Have a nice evening.

  Hi,
  
  Best way to-do this and one that is reversible if needed.
  
  - Open terminal.
  - Do: 'cd /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme'
  - Do: 'sudo cp -f noise-texture.png noise-texture.png.orig'
  - Pick a wallpaper that is 'png' and the same resolution as your screen.
  - Do: 'sudo cp -f /path_to/my_image.png noise-texture.png'
  
  You may need to experiment with the size of the image to match your
  resolution.
  
  To reverse the changes:
  
  - Do: 'cd /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme'
  - Do: 'sudo cp -f noise-texture.png.orig noise-texture.png'
  - Do: 'sudo rm -f noise-texture.png.orig'
  
  Regards
  
  Phil
 
 Side note:
 
 Why I say same resolution as screen is that the noise-texture.png that
 is used is smaller than the screen and then tiled. If you wished, you
 could create a funky smaller patterned image that will tile to make for
 a more consistent background. Hmm... something like a (hint hint) darker
 blue CentOS inspired look rather than the grey - god who chose drab
 grey. :-(

 Phil

Ok, I was bored waiting for a database to populate...

I think that these are not too bad..
And you can use xargs instead of a for loop.

[CentOS] Python Twisted Packages In CentOS 7

2014-07-14 Thread Alex Marz
I'm currently looking for the package python-twisted-names but seem to be
falling short. A quick yum search and a bit of digging appears to indicate
that there are quite a few less twisted packages for python in 7 then there
is in 6. Is this expected or am I searching in the wrong places?

Thank you for the help =)

yum update will only update the packages installed on your system, so if 
you've installed certain packages, then its presumed that any 
fixes/updates to those packages are relevant.

the descriptions of what the various updates fix are documented on 
redhat's update bulletins.

I believe yum update updates only currently-installed packages, so
they should all be relevant.

 So I need to verify and decide the patches and accordingly need to update my 
 OS.

yum update also prompts you to confirm the install before proceeding.
But as I wrote earlier, yum update kernel* will attempt to update just
the kernel packages (and prompt for confirmation before installing).
