Re: Local users get to play root?
Jeff et al are 100% correct - why this is even debated is unfathomable to me. Surely it is completely obvious that the default should be off. (as it was and will be in f13+). Why have we not got a revert fix to turn this back off in updates-testing ? Please fix it now - then discuss how to improve the desktop experiance for Aunt tilly. But first put the security back to what it was, should be and presumably will be again anyway. If people need it, add a button to the PK gui config tool.

nm/nm-applet - how to stop automatic connections
If I have connected once to a wifi network - and that was an auto found connection - I can edit it and choose to not connect automatically. For a an auto found connection which I cannot and/or dont want to ever connect to automatically - i cannot unelect 'connect automatically' and save. The save/apply button is grayed out - and presumably will remain so until I have connected. But I cannot and dont want to connect - and I dont want to keep getting prompted for passhprase - its a rogue connection. How do I stop nn/nm-applet from doing this ? In fact I would like the default behaviour (for security if nothing else) to NEVER connect automatically to anything unless I tell it to - how can I do that ? thanks. gene/ -- 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
Re: Vonage phone service on a network with Fedora...

My system as is was BEFORE I connected the Vonage V-Portal Phone Adapter was like this: Two Fedora Linux systems connected to a router that is connected to a cable modem that is connected to the Comcast cable that comes out of my wall. We do NOT have any other services from Comcast other than cable internet. No TV, No Phone, just Internet. I have a dynamic IP address. But, like with many of us, it almost never changes. THEN I connected the Vonage V-Portal Phone Adapter like the instructions specify. In short, the adapter goes between the modem and the router. Which I am reasonably sure is the cause of my problems. Been using vonage for a long time - do NOT put the vonage adaptor outside your router ... put it inside yoru router - it works fine. It wants to do packet shaping and own your bandwidth - with cable this is toally unneeded - probably uneeded even with DSL these days - it has nothing to do with opening ports - it tunnels out and maintains a tunnel for itself to the vonage server.

By the time it was released, we had already pushed KDE 4.2.0, so the 4.1.4 updates are no longer available. The more time passes, the more updates are affected.)

Re: ssh clarification needed
I have luks encryption on /home on the netbook - which is what I'm really thinking about. Oh good ... and then bind mount /tmp and /var/tmp out of /home/tmp /home/var/tmp. I don't understand that bit, I'm afraid. Lots of programs use /tmp or /var/tmp and leave temporary files in there which may contain sensitive information - so if / is not encrypted its good to have those directories not be in / - but rather be in the encrypted partition (/home). By bind mounting /home/tmp over /tmp you now are using /tmp which is encrypted as well. Otherwise when bad guy steals laptop - he looks in /tmp and /var/tmp for anything interesting. It takes a government department to lose laptops with unencrypted confidential information :-) ;-) Again, I assumed that it was not possible for an intruder to get as far as swap. If I'm wrong, how can that be encrypted after an install? If laptop is stolen and swap is not encrypted then the bad guys can read yoru swap partition and troll for sensitive data. Your choice on the risk factor here .. and of course the more memory your laptop has the less pages will be paged in to swap. Unless you hibernate in which case swap may well have more. It is straightforward using luks directly however I will leave the answer to this for the approved F10 way to those better versed in F10 and encrypted swap - mike.cloaked ? You can do it with a passphrase or use a random passphrase - i will show my hand the random passphrase way below. By hand it would be something like this - let me assume for this your swap partition is /dev/sda7 # turn off swap swapoff -a # randomize whats there (skip if just testing) this takes a long time dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sda7 # Set it up as encyrpted swap cryptsetup -d /dev/urandom create cswap /dev/sda7 # make swap device (/dev/mapper/cswap) and use it.
