I am not posting this message to the bugs list as I
want to make sure that I am simply not missing something. It appears that
the Red Hat 7.0 support is far from complete...
I have installed both FreeVSD 1.4.6 and 1.4.7 on 3
seperate Red Hat 7.0 machines, all with the same results. In each case,
the xinetd.conf modification have no effect due to the fact that the service
definition files in the /etc/xinetd.d/ directory are not removed. This
prevents FTP, telnet, ssh, and pop3 from functioning properly.
Once these files are removed, everything with the
exception of FTP works fine. The FTP service now reports the
following:
421 service not available
As for the "main" host, FTP is totally broken due
to the fact that /usr/sbin/proftpd does not exist (Red Hat 7.0 uses wu-ftpd). I
would be more than happy to help with this issue, but as a suggestion, you might
want to include some simply flowcharts on the actions taken by the various
virtualized servers (namely the virtuald daemon)... this would save those of us
admins the time of actually having to "use the source, Luke".
As a seperate note, if the host system does not
have X and Gnome installed, the freevsd-pkgs RPMs will fail to install during
skel generation due to the fact that there are missing deps for the
ssh-askpass-gnome RPM (why are you including X apps for the VS's anyway?).
This will produce a few messages about the inability to install
ssh-askpass-gnome, but give you no other indication that your skel structure is
unusable (missing su, ls, etc commands).
Last, but not least, a small gripe/suggestion...
why in the world do you default to using the vsdredirect method for web port
redirection. I understand the security issues of running apache on port
80, but shouldn't you default to using the ipchains/iptables NAT
redirections? I can't think of any situation where I wouldn't care if all
of the traffic to my site was logged as coming from the VS itself... not to
mention the fact that this makes attempts to use banner ads as a source of
revenue pointless as you won't get paid for all of your hits coming from the
same host.
