Re: [gentoo-user] File replication
Hi Rumen, Tks for your advice. Not very sure that's what you want, but check: sys-cluster/drbd. Description: mirror/replicate block-devices across a network-connection (requires a network connection though). sync+cron can do the job, incremental-copying files from /home/user on to /mnt/USB_enclosure/user at fixed time, periodically. I'm now searching for examples of sync and cron scripts to have a concept how to start writing such scripts B.R. SL -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Perhaps this can help you. Since my local system is also acting as a LDAP server, thats why every users who are in LDAP directory, they are in my system also. Hm, this sounds a little bit wrong. Even if your LDAP server runs on another system, the accounts saved in it are part of your system, if you configure it that way (which you did with /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/ldap.conf). They are not automatically in it, if you do not set these files properly (which I think you did), local ldap or not. Regards, Marc -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

It still taking 15 to 20 seconds to authenticate. Does it takes too much time or i am doing something wrong. Please help me. I am doing this from last 8 days. And one more thing i want to know, how would i know that user is authenticated via the ldap not the system. 15-20 seconds is to long. I only authentificate ldap-users via Samba-login with windows machines, and this works fast without any delay. For the authentification issue: if your user is in the local user data base, it is authentificated against it (depending on your nsswitch and pam settings), if he is in ldap, he is authentificated against ldap. You should't have users in both, local and ldap. I looked again at your access rules in slapd.conf: try out these rules: - access to attrs=userPassword,gecos,description,loginShell by dn=uid=root,ou=people,dc=kavach,dc=blr write by anonymous auth by self write by * none access to * by dn=uid=root,ou=people,dc=kavach,dc=blr write by users read - The first rule allows root to and self to change the attributes userPassword,gecos,description,loginShell, anonymous to authentificate (=login!) and * nothing. The second rule allows root to change all other attributes and authentificated users to read all other attributes. Regards, Marc -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] hostname
Hi, I know this is a recursive question, but this weekend I've been reisntalling a box, and, as I had some hostname problems, I decided to look for the definitive answer I did not find it. Finally, decided to set hostname and dnsdomainname in /etc/conf.d/ files. But with that set, hostname -f gave me errors. So I set in /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 locahost my_IP hostname.domain.com hostname And hostname commnad returned correct values. Is this the definitive way of doing it? I found some docs where is said that hosts file should look like: 127.0.0.1 localhost hostname hostname.domain.com or other which says that is not needed to edit hosts file, that conf.d fles are enought for a correct fqdn... thanks in advance! -- Arnau Bria http://blog.emergetux.net Wiggum: Dispara a las ruedas Lou.

[gentoo-user] Xorg 7.0: how to remove unwanted VIDEO_CARDS?
Greetings, yesterday I upgraded my notebook to xorg-x11-7.0-r1. Compared to doing this on my desktop-system (where I ran into heavy dependency-problems, solved it already ...) it went through without problems. I had added INPUT_DEVICES and VIDEO_CARDS to /etc/make.conf, according to my hardware, during the emerge I wondered why I should need some savage-modules on my Nvidia-notebook, so I checked back and noticed that I had mistyped VIDOE_CARDS Corrected that and emerged again, now much less packages.

Your domain can be any one of your domains. Your hostname should not match anything in your virtual file. When you set your origin use the hostname and not the domain. That'll make things less likely to screw up. Couldn't I also omit the hostname or origin instead of it? And if not, what would you propose as hostname?

[gentoo-user] mdadm --create: very low speed on formated disk
Hi, I'm creating /dev/md's for my server with: mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 and I have noticed following thing: Whenever I create /dev/md0 on a clean (not previously formated) disk, the syncing speed is high (30-40MB/s, as shown by cat /proc/mdstat. But when I try to create raid array on partitions which have been previously formated (there remained old ext3 formating), syncing speed is not higher than 2-3MB/s (~15 hours syncing my 160 GB drives!!!). One more thing: if I delete all partitions, and then write them back again exactly as they were previously, it doesn't help. But if I shift all partitions just 1 sector up (or down), mdadm is again syncing with full speed... Question: how can I sync with full speed, even if there are partitions previously used and formated and I do not want (or can not) move partitions? Jarry -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] uniprint, ggv, and utf-8 - argh...
Ok - so - I got yudit living on my box, which also contains the uniprint program. $ man uniprint uniprint - produce postscript output from unicode text for printing So - here's the command I'm using on what appears to be a Chinese utf-8 file: uniprint -in chinese_utf8.txt -out /tmp/chinese_utf8.ps -size 14 Now - all seems well, until I try to view the file: ggv (or gv) /tmp/chinese_utf8.ps I see *almost* all the Chinese characters, but there's still a few boxes that are 'bitboxes' - the empty boxes with the little encoding numbers in them. Seems like uniprint doesn't know how to 'draw' them, or what have you. I'm no X/utf8/PS master here - could anyone give me a hint as to wth I need to do to get the rest of the characters to draw properly into the PS output file?

Re: [gentoo-user] myhostname and mydomain in /etc/postfix/main.cf on a vhost
Noack, Sebastian wrote: Couldn't I also omit the hostname or origin instead of it? And if not, what would you propose as hostname? Something like nohost or does it have to be a real hostname, which is mapped to my ip address or maybe my ip address itself? I used vmail.domain.com on my last build. The point being that domain.com is virtual and if you use it as $myorigin Postfix will assume it's local and your transport table for that domain will not work, IIRC. Ideally yes forward and reverse DNS would match. At worst forward DNS should actually point to this box. Well, because of I'm not a mailhoster and need just a mailserver for the web sites I administer completely by my own, it wouldn't be a problem to administer the mail stuff directly in the database, but however PostfixAdmin seems to be nice. But I think I can also set it up later, after I followed the official Gentoo Virtual Mailhosting System with Postfix Guide. Btw: Your howto mentions PostfixAdmin, but also doesn't explains how to set it up. But however I will still read it, nevertheless. It's not really something you can add on later as PostfixAdmin uses a different schema in order to support all the things it does. I did a transition of 400 users by hand from the old installation to the new, but it sucked. Setting PostfixAdmin itself is a matter of following included how-to and then use my Gentoo specific stuff to config everything it relies on. If you're dead set on following the Gentoo one, this will be helpful. Top 10 things you'll do wrong (and some extras for free) in the Gentoo How-to 1. The Gentoo how-to does not read the virtual domains from mysql by default. You need a line like this virtual_mailbox_domains = proxy:mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql_virtual_domains_maps.cf substituting the Gentoo stuff or you have to add them manually to virtual_comin_maps and restart Postfix. This is the first trade off made for Mailman. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-224882-highlight-kashani+virtual.html 2. Courier-imap will throw a very unhelpful error message if the .maildir does not exist. Always send new users a welcome mail to create their maildir. PostfixAdmin does this by default. 3. When you using wildcard aliases you must create an alias for for each real mailbox or it'll match the wildcard and exit before it checks the real mailbox table. PostfixAdmin can be configured to add aliases for all mailbox users in by default. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-131618-highlight-kashani+aliases.html 4. Users must use their full email address as the username. For both POP, SMTP-auth, and webmail. You'll repeat this a lot no matter which system you use. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-346173-highlight-kashani+virtual.html 5. When using multiple webmail client front ends like Horde, Squirrel, and Roundcube remember to force them to use the same folder name for Trash, Sent, etc. in case users switch around. 6. We covered the origin thing http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-445361-highlight-kashani+virtual.html 7. The alias table is for local system aliases, not virtual aliases which go in virtual. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-477820-highlight-kashani+virtual.html 8. /home/vmail/virt-bar.org/foo/.maildir/ --- don't forget the trailing slash or Postfix will write to .maildir the file and not .maildir/ the dir. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-74995-highlight-kashani+maildir+virtual.html 9. Postfix needs permission to create the .maildir/ so make sure that you've created home dir with the right uid/gid http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-446763-highlight-kashani+virtual.html 10. Remove the -v from master.cf and change 450 bounce code back to 550 once it's working. Adding proxy: to your mysql statements in Postfix also helps. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-124564-highlight-kashani+aliases.html 11. The Gentoo how-to is still using Postfix 2.0 Mysql syntax. This is going to break someday though it is rumored to still work with 2.2. 2.3 might be a different story. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-392458-highlight-kashani+virtual.html 12.

[gentoo-user] Greylisting idea
Greylisting seems to be the most effective way of eliminating unwanted
email. The problem is that it also has the potential to eliminate a
legitimate email. Couldn't a feature be added to greylisting software
that dispatches an email to the sender of any email that is
temporarily rejected and doesn't retry within a certain amount of
time? The email could say something like, Your message of {date} was

I'm going to go ahead and try greylisting. It sounds like regular
postfix checks can reject legitimate email just like greylisting can
end up doing, but postfix checks are cutting spam in half and it
sounds like greylisting will do a lot better.
I'm going to replace the following postix config:
smtpd_delay_reject = yes
smtpd_helo_required = yes
smtpd_helo_restrictions =
permit_mynetworks,
reject_non_fqdn_hostname,
reject_invalid_hostname,
permit
smtpd_sender_restrictions =
permit_mynetworks,
reject_non_fqdn_sender,
reject_unknown_sender_domain,
permit
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
permit_mynetworks,
reject_non_fqdn_recipient,
reject_unknown_recipient_domain,
reject_unauth_destination,
permit
smtpd_data_restrictions =
reject_unauth_pipelining,
permit
with this:
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
permit_mynetworks,
check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10030
reject_unauth_destination,
permit
How does that look?

No, thats just silly. That would send a reply to every email that is a spam.
Most spam has non-existent (or forged) from address, which means the mail
