Well, i really don't know... but since it's the only DM that has a consistent look with Mandrake's background images and icons, i would guess so. Damian I was under the impression that KDM was used when KDE is chosen as the default. The only reason I'm commenting on this is because I occasionally set up another X session for my fiance'. I have to select another tty, login to her user account and run startx -- :1 to get her off to the races. I'm sure a properly written shell script would do the same thing but I haven't gotten around to it. I tried what was suggested above: K -- Configuration -- Start up init -- New login with GDM This does not work due to the fact GDM is not running.

Re: [Cooker] Easy Idea to Make Mandrake Better: Fast User Switching
Timothy R. Butler wrote: Hi everyone, I'd like to propose an idea that I think could easily be implemented by 9.1 final and would be really great. I mean, wonderful. Most of you probably know the term Fast user switching from the Windows XP marketingspeak. Most of you also know that GNU/Linux is fully capable of doing the same thing. This is something I have requested before, Mandrakesoft, please consider it! Of course, we have had this much longer than XP, but the point-and-clickers (the one's who would currently not be able to fix their mouse with MCC if their mouse wasn't working) would think XP had it first, because XP has a GUI for it. The problem is, until recently, no one bothered to implement a GUI for this. Now Xandros has full fast user switching functionality -- there is a menu option that lets you login as another user (i.e. start another X session) or easily jump to another open session -- another tty). Red Hat, using gdm, offers the former functionality, but not the latter (you must still use Ctrl+Alt+F[num] combinations to switch). IMHO, kdm needs to implement this, and the two need to be compatible, so if I am running gdm, but using KDE, the logout dialog still offers the options I get if I'm running kdm. Now, I'm not sure if Xandros' modifications are GPL'ed or not, but even if they weren't, I'd imagine that they would be very easy to reimplement on Mandrake. Since GNU/Linux already has the capability, it is a real shame not to exploit it, I think. If MDK implemented both pieces of the puzzle that I mention above, it would be the FIRST major distribution to do so, and would also be the FIRST Free Software-friendly distro to do so. With it being mostly implementing a simple gui to watch open X sessions and allow easy launching of additional X tty's seems to me something that would take very little effort but be nice to brag about on the 9.1 press release. All we need is: -New login support in kdm like gdm has, so that they are compatible -A visible menu to Change users, which lists current sessions, and has an option for a new session -Lock the current session (via screensaver) just before switching. I haven't used the XP user switching GUI, so there might be better ways of doing this. -- |--Another happy Mandrake Club member--| Buchan MilneMechanical Engineer, Network Manager Cellphone * Work+27 82 472 2231 * +27 21 8828820x121 Stellenbosch Automotive Engineering http://www.cae.co.za GPG Key http://ranger.dnsalias.com/bgmilne.asc 1024D/60D204A7 2919 E232 5610 A038 87B1 72D6 AC92 BA50 60D2 04A7

[Cooker] Better support for LDAP

So, I am trying to make setting up an LDAP server easier, and I would also appreciate feedback on the samba-ldap stuff from others who are using it (or just LDAP, but might want better tools).

In the meantime, here is the wizard I have started on. I am not sure if drakwizard is rich enough for this (we will need a password entry field, which I don't think drakwizard supports, and for importing ldap entries a progress dialog would be nice), but I think it's worth a start. However, since I'm not good with perl, it would help if someone who is could lend a hand, I can tell you exactly what I need done, and prototype in bash ...

It sets up only a simple 2-speaker alsa-oss-emulation for my terratec dmx-fire 1024. With the information given on www.alsa-project.org I have 4 speaker, spdif and some other things. I don't know if there is an easy solution for this, since there are other far more complicated soundcards than mine ( think of audigy or other higher quality cards) -- Regards Steffen counter.li.org : #296567. machine: 181800 vdr-box : 87 Please dont CC me, since if I have replied I'll watch the tread.

The problem of artsd is that it takes over /dev/dsp exclusiv (for me the only application i know that do this). So if I want to hear music or start mplayer 'killall artsd' is mandatory. Another solution would be to set the artsd idletime to 3-5s and switch off all soundevents in kde. Er, that's because if you use a sound server you're meant to route *all* sound through it.

Re: [Cooker] Fast User Switching done right
On Thursday 30 January 2003 05:21 pm, Buchan Milne wrote: Timothy R. Butler wrote: I'd like to propose an idea that I think could easily be implemented by 9.1 final and would be really great. I mean, wonderful. Most of you probably know the term Fast user switching from the Windows XP marketingspeak. Most of you also know that GNU/Linux is fully capable of doing the same thing. Of course, we have had this much longer than XP, but the point-and-clickers (the one's who would currently not be able to fix their mouse with MCC if their mouse wasn't working) would think XP had it first, because XP has a GUI for it. What we have is different. There is no security, for example. Someone could wander in, switch to their own screen and be working on it when you came back, and if you assumed you had logged out they would then be likely to have an opportunity to go through your stuff. What would be needed to work around this are a text-mode tool and modifications to the screensavers (in KDE and xscreensaver). The screensaver mod would detect the X instance losing focus and immediately throw the screensaver into a mode where it locked the session until it again achieved focus, then whoever focussed on the session would need to know the user's password to be able to get past the screensaver. Likewise the text console mod would blank the console when it lost focus, and demand a password before unblanking when focus returned. One useful advanced feature of these mods would be to not do this if focus arrived from an unlocked session owned by the same user. Another would be the option of starting a new session as a different user, or by identifying yourself as an administrator. A feature I would like to see in screensavers is awareness of power management, so that when the screen was suspended or powered down, the screensaver just displayed black and stopped chewing CPU cycles (SIGSTP?). The next step beyond this is complete session management, like Sun's, where your X session goes through a virtual X server which is basically just a router. You can then park a session somewhere, which routes it to a 'null' X server (bit-bucket), wander off to another screen (potentially on the same box) and unpark the session from the other box. A *really*cool* option for this would be multiple independent sessions for the same user, that is, when you log in you get the option of starting a new session, unparking a parked session, or `snatching' an active session from another screen. For the penultimate in coolosity, wire the consoles and/or `screen' program into the same logic. To see just how cool this would be in real life, consider this scenario: You are called away from work to a customer site at the wrong end of a modem. You ssh in to work, which sees no DISPLAY envar so does not offer you anything graphical. You start a new session, but you could have taken over one of your Konsole windows if it had been useful. You start a new console session fix a bug, compile the result and push it to your updates server, where this and other clients can easily fetch it. Test, iterate. The day ends, you go home and log in. Your home machine `knows' about your work machine so it offers you sessions on that as well as a new one. You `snatch' your work session, glance at your MRTG graphs, scroll back through a few of your IRC sessions, note that the customer needs an extra piece, so scp it from your home machine to the FTP server at work. Because the inbound scp is not a terminal, it automatically gets a new text session. You start another compile at work, open a new session at home and get into some seriously relaxing bzfragging. Challenge an XP user to do that (-: even using VNC it would be clumsy and slow, if it could be done, and using VNC on an XP box is illegal :-) I'd be surprised if the `X router' didn't already exist somewhere.

So that means we can start play^H^H^H^Hworking on the mail server Also, the KDE kolab project uses cyrus ... so do we want 4 IMAP servers in the distro? Then we won't see either kolab or cyrus-imap in mandrake because of the cyrus-imap license?

Downtime is unaceptable? About 80 users, downtime unacceptable in the day, and must be minimised after hours (some people use webmail from home or overseas). I upgraded a system this morning with 500+ users (qmail+vpopmail+courier-imap+sqwebmail+maildrop), no migration though. No sweat. It's not always the number of users total that counts, but the number of concurrents ... we have 80, and about 50 concurrent most of the day. I guess you find a lot of usefull migrating stuf if you go to www.qmail.org (for maildirs) I try and stay away from qmail.org ;-). Well, primary server (including ldap master, windows domain controller amanda etc) is running fine, and the old server is up and running as a hot spare with rysnc syncing nightly (we will have to see if rsync can keep 130GB of data in sync over 128k ISDN ;-)). So that means we can start play^H^H^H^Hworking on the mail server Very cool! We still have to see if win** roaming profiles still work on the other side ... but we have disconnected auth (would work nicer if 3c589_cs had working ifplugd ...) on the pilot Mandrake 9.0 laptop running with a local slave ldap on it. All we need now is disconnected file access (intersync? coda? AFS?) to have it work as well as win2k on the laptops :-(. I guess you ntp first to prevent synthetic time, or maybe it's not nessesary with rsync? NTP will come, but we're only sync'ing one way at present, so it doesn't really matter. Users don't worry if the file has a timestamp that is out by 1 minute if it means they are guaranteed to have the file available if one office gets destroyed ... Well..., back on topic. I would like people to test this new server and report to me their experience. It's very promising. I will test it in production myself this week. OK, we have a spare box that happens to run cooker, and I have bincimap installed but Mozilla don't like it. 1)Do I need to maildirmake ~/Maildir as with courier, and if so how (urpmf maildirmake gives courier-imap which conflicts with bincimap :-() I think you can define mailbox in /etc/*.conf if needed. I think I will try courier and binc together in the meantime, courier on my cooker box, bincimap on another, both NFS'ing /home/users off the same server .. at least then I have a maildirmake somewhere. 2)Anything else I need for non-ssl but to bounce xinetd and configure /etc/pam.d/checkpassword-pam ? I must admit I know very little how this should be configured (pam), I tried to look at other packages to give me hints. If all else fails try to use DJB's checkpassword package without pam support and change the xinetd files, I think vdanen has binaries. A pam guru should help out here... I know the odd thing about pam, and our /etc/pam.d/system-auth is setup nicely (so your pam_stack entries should be fine), but you probably only need one auth line, and maybe an account line. I see courier-imap has a session entry, but AFAIK it doesn't actually do session support (I tried to have it use pam_mkhomedir, with a maildir in /etc/skel/Maildir, but that didn't work, so the windows login script connects users to their home on the mail server, and samba, which can be made to require session support, does it for me...). But I don't think it's an auth issue, mozilla hasn't given me a login prompt yet, and this is all I get in /var/log/auth.log: Jan 30 16:59:14 caeisd1 xinetd[11056]: START: imap pid=11238 from=xxx.xxx.xxx.36 But mozilla still don't want to play. I guess I should try with something else also (pine etc), but mozilla says: Mail server caeisd1 is not an IMAP4 mail server Are there more docs than 'rpm -qd bincimap' ? This is unknown ground. Maybe I should rename the package to *0.BETA_QUALITY.1mdk so that people acknowledges it as a software in eary development. No problem ... someone needs to test it ;-). I plan to test run bincimap in my tcpserver+daemontools+qmail+vpopmail env, not with /etc/passwd or mailbox users. We're a SME, and most of my clients are also, so account on most of my machines are pam/nss-accessible (local, ldap or winbind). OK, I have courier on my own box and it works fine, on the same ~/Maildir as the machine that has binc, so I'm a bit stuck here Time to look for more docs (and I suspect it's going to be the *.cpp kind :-().
