GrNotify is dead
Hi, I package GrNotify but the project is dead. I have reported some bug to upstream and I have proposed some patch but no new release since 9 months. I think remove it from Fedora but I don't know any replacement solution. That do you think about this ? -- Jabber/Gtalk : llaum...@gmail.com -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
Re: Pam configuration with ldap root user
I'm not very clear what you mean by accept connection from a user with uidgid = 0. You'd have to do something on purpose to lock root (uid=0) out of the system. Let me explain more ! On my systems, all root account are local (as all the default installation of every distrib do - infos are stored in /etc/passwd, /etc/shadows, and in /etc/groups.) For my company i setup a ldap directory to have a centralized administrations for the accounts. I'm able to connect on every workstation without any unprivileged user and home folder, default shell, groups or any user extended properties are read without any problem. Now the next step is to have a centralized root account. I create it in the directory, like a standard user but with the special uid gid attribute set to 0. And as i wrote before on this list, this user is i unable to connect to any fedora station while the pam config is not changed (see my precedent post). The purpose of this mail, is to speak about the potentially security weakness of this setup -specially the modification of PAM- and what can be the effect of such modification. Maybe this is not the right ML to post and if you think so, i'll search elsewhere for my answer :-D I'll try to share my limited understanding of PAM. auth merely establishes the user identity -is he who he claims to be? Ok with that The line auth requisite pam_succeed_if.so uid = 500 quiet is not to permit login, but rather to establish a user's identity; to be precise, a user whose id is not that of a system account. And if it's fail as pam man said (http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/Linux-PAM-html/sag-configuration-file.html) the status is set to failed if any other module failed, or control is return to application... based on the line auth required pam_deny.so The users whose IDs are listed in this block can be denied accesss (pam_deny.so) if their identity is not properly confirmed. Ok, so base on the previous item and the pam manual :) If the pam_succeed_if failed because my user use an uid 500 so the pam_deny module will issue a failure and block the auth phase. Later, these lines account sufficient pam_succeed_if.so uid 500 quiet account required pam_permit.so translate into are you root or a system account? no problem! go right ahead!; otherwise, some checks will run to further qualify the incoming user. You are a system account (uid lower than 500) then account is permit to login. But what is the purpose of account required pam_permit.so ? it always permit login no ?

Pam configuration with ldap root user
hi everyone, I hope someone can help me on this... I modify the pam configuration today to accept connection from a user with uidgid = 0.

Problem configuring ldapphpadmin fedora directory server
Hi, I setup a new Fedora Directory Server (v1.1.3-6) on fedora 10. And then, I install ldapphpadmin (v1.1.0.5-2) to create new entry/populate the database. But here is the problem. Each time i try to connect to ldapphpadmin, I can't ! Because the username/password does not exist. Except if i bind anonymously. And then I can see default entries, except the cn=Directory manager user specified at the init of the directory srver. I think this issue is related to the netscape root used by FDS (but im not sure). Maybe i have to change the base DN used by PLA to match it to the core netscapeDN. Below are the config files used on this installation. Maybe someonce have an idea about this issue and my own config. /etc/phpldapadmin/config.php# $config-custom-session['blowfish'] = '8276d3d6bbb59656fc600b8d7f324788'; # Autogenerated for auth.local $i=0; $ldapservers = new LDAPServers; $ldapservers-SetValue($i,'server','name','[auth.local]'); $ldapservers-SetValue($i,'server','host','127.0.0.1'); $ldapservers-SetValue($i,'server','port','389'); $ldapservers-SetValue($i,'server','base',array('dc=local')); $ldapservers-SetValue($i,'server','auth_type','session'); $ldapservers-SetValue($i,'server','sasl_mech','CRAM-MD5'); $ldapservers-SetValue($i,'appearance','password_hash','md5'); $ldapservers-SetValue($i,'login','attr','uid'); # Thanks for your help. -- Guillaume -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

Thank you, this seems to works too with ssh-agent. But after user disconnection, there is still gpg-agent daemon running in background.

Re: mounting filesytem for homedir
Maybe it helps if I give an example, this is the way I do it: I have an ext3 filesystem on /dev/sdd2 and a directory /var/backup that is used as the mount point. The directory /var/backup is owned by root and has file mode 000 (d-). You can safely do this and I even recommend it, as it prevents any access to this directory when the filesystem is not mounted (for whatever reason). As soon as I mount /dev/sdd2 on /var/backup, the owner of this directory becomes bacula and the file mode becomes 775 (drwxrwxr-x) because that is how it's stored in the file system on /dev/sdd2. After unmounting, this becomes 000/root again. So, what I wrote in my previous mail is good no ? -- Guillaume -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
