[389-users] web account manager
I have many fds+samba as pdc installations. All my customers ask me how to manage domain accounts using an easy tool, instead of sshing into fds and using smbldap tools. What are u using? Is LAM able to add and modify ldap+samba accounts without pains? tia Maurizio -- 389 users mailing list 389-users@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users

Re: [389-users] SSL peer reports incorrect Message Authentication Code in versions = 1.2.2
Hi 2010/5/3 Rich Megginson rmegg...@redhat.com We are having trouble since we have updated from version 1.1.3 to 1.2.2 and 1.2.5. We have integrated CentOS/Redhat clients into LDAP. When we try to make getent group, we only get one group and its members, but no the rest of the groups (should be more than 1000 groups). What platform? 32-bit or 64-bit? How many groups? Do you only get this error when you attempt a search to return this many groups? getent group should return the local groups (that are show fine) and about 729 LDAP groups. If I do the same search with the command ldapsearch, all groups and their attributes are returned.

I used Typical configuration setup, using all the defaults, ipv4 hostname, and domain are correctly found by the setup script. The DS instance is successfully created, but when the next part of the setup script runs, it cannot connect to ldap server because its not listening on the ipv4 interface, so admin configuration fails. I also tried the Advanced setup, and typed in the ipv4 IP to listen on. That failed too. I tried using strictly ipv6 host and domain, this too failed. Is this a bug in ns-slapd or setup-ds-admin.pl?

[389-users] sync Active Directory Computer Accounts to 389?
I have Windows Active Directory to 389 Directory Server syncronization working. I can create an account in AD and it gets synced to the 389 LDAP server and the password is synced also. This only works for User accounts in Active Directory though. Is there a way that I can sync my Active Directory machine trust accounts from AD to the 389 directory server? A machine trust account is just a user account that is a computer from what I can tell. I'm looking to get the computer username and password that is set in Active Directory into the 389 server so I can do machine based RADIUS authentication directly against the 389 LDAP server rather than directly through Active Directory. Is it possible to sync the computer accounts from AD-389? Any ideas? --greg Gregory A.

Midori crash and abrt oddities
Hi y'all, On F12 and 13, if quitting (ctrl+q) midori after playing a flash file, it crashes with a SIGSEGV. Abrt starts, asks me if I want to login bugzilla and starts downloading debuginfos. At the end, it tells me that 13 debug syms cannot be downloaded and that I should try debuginfo-install midori, which I do and after that I hit refresh in Abrt, which tells me the exact same thing : 13 debuginfo packages couldn't be downloaded (or smth.). Now, my question is : are these bugs (midori and abrt) known to you or should I report them?

In most cases, for a desktop, here, I'd say none. I believe there should be a page on FedoraProject to explain how to get rid of that ext3 /boot partition. Of course, for most people, I suppose it won't be much of an issue for most users but, when a 500 MB boot partition is now suggested for /boot -- which 25 times my first HD! --, it certainly doesn't look very clean. Knowledge of this sort is a dangerous weapon. It is known by those who understand it and are willing to possibly shoot themselves in the foot because they know what they are doing.

I didn't have a *current* backup to restore from (what I had was 5-6 months old), but since I was replacing a disk, I took the opportunity to punt LVM and repartition. I think I lost 1 partition with a collection of MPEGs that wasn't backed up (even though there were bits and pieces of it on the remaining disk in a partial LV).

Re: Where to put local Latex *.sty files under Fedora11
Am Montag, den 03.05.2010, 09:30 -0600 schrieb r...@dwf.com: There used to be a place to put local *.sty files for Latex so that they would be found. Under the current latex under Fedora11 I cant figure out where that directory might be and am having to copy them into the directory with the *.tex file to get them recognized. Not nice. Any Latex users out there that know the answer? [[ The Latex System seems to be looking in /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/filename /*.sty but there must be an index to this directory somewhere, as just putting a new Local directory in there with the files in it does no good. Thoughts on that approach??? ]] You are right. Simply create a subdirectoy, e.g. /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/private/ place your *.sty-files there and run mktexlsr as root.
