Bug#881000: “uuid” command fail to use the real MAC address

[Mario Castelán Castro]

Package: uuid
Version: 1.6.2-1.5+b4

Calling “uuid -v 1” in Debian Stretch generates UUIDs with random MAC
address instead of the MAC address assigned to the network interface,
see this interaction log:

This was run on a physical (non-virtual) machine with one 802.3 and one

Bug#802539: Please properly configure HTTPS in security.debian.org

[Mario Castelán Castro]

Package: security.debian.org

I intend to use a secure connection (that means at the transport level) 
for downloading packages and lists from the Debian repository. I 
installed apt-transport-https. There are mirrors that accept HTTPS 
(though there don't seems to be a list yet, they are listed along with 
the mirrors that don't). I configured one of them in my source.list


The problem hereby reported is that the repository for security updates 
(security.debian.org) sometimes provides a bad HTTPS certificate and 
sometimes refuses connections (TCP reset); it seems to depend on the 
rotation of the IP addresses that security.debian.org resolve to. This 
problem makes "apt-get update" fail when using HTTPS to access the 
security upgrades repository; sometimes it hangs, sometimes it gives a 
message error reporting the domain mismatch in the certificate:


-BEGIN PASTED TEXT
Err https://security.debian.org wheezy/updates/main Sources
  SSL: certificate subject name (debian.org) does not match target host 
name 'security.debian.org'

Err https://security.debian.org wheezy/updates/main amd64 Packages
  SSL: certificate subject name (debian.org) does not match target host 
name 'security.debian.org'

Fetched 7637 kB in 33s (231 kB/s)
W: Failed to fetch 
https://security.debian.org/dists/wheezy/updates/main/source/Sources 
SSL: certificate subject name (debian.org) does not match target host 
name 'security.debian.org'


W: Failed to fetch 
https://security.debian.org/dists/wheezy/updates/main/binary-amd64/Packages 
 SSL: certificate subject name (debian.org) does not match target host 
name 'security.debian.org'


E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old 
ones used instead.

-END PASTED TEXT

I have asked for help in the debian-u...@lists.debian.org mailing list 
. An user 
suggested a possible workaround, but as he also noted, actually it don't 
works because the TLS configuration of security.debian.org is broken 
beyond the domain mismatch 
, 
.


Regards.

Bug#769613: LXC guest shutdown hangs the host SSH sessions

[Mario Castelán Castro]

Hello.

The configuration is the default generated by LXC, everything 
LXC-related is at its defaults, except for this added line in /etc/fstab 
as recommended in https://wiki.debian.org/LXC:


  none  /sys/fs/cgroup  cgroup

Note that this LXC version is quite old. Maybe you're using a newer 
version which doesn't have this problem.

Bug#769613: LXC guest shutdown hangs the host SSH sessions

[Mario Castelán Castro]

Package: lxc
Version: 0.8.0~rc1-8+deb7u2

Hello.

I have noticed that in Debian 7.7, when shutting down a Debian container 
with shutdown the host ongoing SSH sessions terminate and I can't 
connect to the host anymore through SSH. However I can still access the 
host through the its terminal.


This was tested in a fully upgraded Debian Wheezy for x86_64 in a 
machine virtualized with QEMU/KVM.
