ksh problem/question
I am running ksh in my terminal - have been for many years
and I am used to it and like it :)
Have a question about backgrounding a job
I ran a short script as follows:
for i in *.fin; do
cp $i Recent{$i#updated}
done
The I decided to background it by typing
Ctl-Z followed by bgCR
Well it worked just fine as expected.
Later, I came back and typed
fgCR
job came to foreground.
I killed it with Ctrl-C
And to be sure, I typed
$ jobs
[1] + 27209 Running for i in *fin; do;cp $i
Recent{$i#updated};done
So I tried to see what process is pid 27209
$ ps -p 27209
PID TTY TIME CMD
OK, there is no such process running.
So, ksh-20110208-3.fc14.i686has a bug.
The man page betrays no info on support web page.
Should I open a bug in bugzilla.redhat.com or some other more specific site?

Anyone using a USB wireless dongle as access point on fedora?
Everything I read tells me this may be possible with hostapd (which I see is in the repos), but that you have to have a wireless dongle that supports it, so I'm hoping some folks have actual examples of working product model numbers :-).

Be sure to set your desktop to enable ip forwarding, and if you have a firewall enabled on y our desktop, be sure to add a rule to allow packets to/from your USB interface.

If the IT department is worth it's salt, it's gateway will detect NAT'ed packets, and ring a few bells. You will have to cross t hat bridge when you get to it. Meanwhile, build the F15 kernel under F14, and try and see if it will indeed detect your USB wifi dongle, and then see if you can get your phone to associate with it. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
ecryptfs and password
Hi, I'm new to Fedora - been using Ubuntu for years. I just installed Fedora 14 to my laptop and selected to encrypt /home. When I boot, I have to enter the password for the encrypted directory. Did I set it up wrong? I didn't expect to have to enter the password at boot but instead thought the login password would be enough. Thanks!

UPnP monitoring
I *think* I might be having trouble with UPnP. It's enabled on my router but qbittorrent says it can't see any UPnP-enabled routers. This used to work so I'm not sure what might have changed. Is there anything I should look at in iptables? Are there any tools for checking UPnP-related issues? poc -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
