[389-users] I have a question about the 389 ds
Hi ,all : I am a newbie to here and I also install the 389 ds in our company for managering all users account and passwd . Today , The boss asked me if the ds could set the users vnc screen geometry in the config file . Because the user's computer screen is not the same and have different geometries. If it could , then we were happy that can solve the user's vnc problem . Then , I try to search it via Googling , but have not search the useful information about it yet . I know we can use the ds to set the uid or home directory and so on , can the 389 ds do it ?Or maybe add some atrributes ? Could someone give me some suggestions about it ? Thanks in advance ~ -- 389 users mailing list 389-users@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users

RFC about socket/cores numbers and HT info
Hello, after digging around different systems (Fedora, RHEL) and mailing lists suggestions I arrived at this script about identifying on a system: - number of sockets - number of cores per socket - number of logical processors (so computational units) seen by OS - info about presence/enablement of HT if present I would like to share and ask 2 things: a) what about the script accuracy? Can you verify with your hw setup/config? b) Do you think there is any way to enumerate the number of physical sockets of a system based only on values in cpuinfo and not using dmidecode command? I have a system (not under my control) that collects nmon values only for many servers and I would like to be able to get the number of sockets ion them based on this info... In nmon output I find, other than the cpuinfo info, only something like AAA,cpus,4,4 But it seems quite static where the two numerical values are identical.

This version will contain many enhancements and bug fixes that are not in Fedora 8. All said though, I did find Fedora 8 to be a good stable release. Rest assured you will find a very limited number of updates now available for Fedora 8, and hence unless you choose to implement bug fixes yourself, (I doubt that), you will never get them. I've managed to create a dual boot system of Windows and Fedora, with grub menu to select what you want to boot up, although this was some years ago now. JB perhaps his system won't allow him to run anything later than FC8. Perhaps his system is running an Intel Video chipset that won't come up with the stupid new Intel video drivers and Xorg (I know from experience as I have a system that is in that *exact* state and no amount of google searching has been able to offer a solution (and I'm talking hours and days of searching)). Essentially, my point being that answering that FC8 is no longer supported doesn't address the problem. Granted, the original subject line was lacking but telling somebody to update to later Fedora versions is not an answer that can be achieved in some cases.

How to get non-console users access to audio / sound device?
Hi!
Just wondering if you have any suggestion on giving a
non-console users access to audio / sound device?
Background: in my office computer (currently running Fedora 12)
I like to open personal e-mails etc. in separate environment. So
I created a separate user, ssh into it, make sure DISPLAY is
correct there and xhost is correct from the console user, then
run application from there. The issue is sometime I would like
to get sound also.
Thanks!

There are a variety of conditions where you can't rely on the MAC source
address being correct.
One is with broken DOCSIS Ethernet-to-CATV bridges that try to be secure and
prevent spoofing.
Another is when you've got routers (such as Cisco IOS routers) that use DHCP
relaying (i.e. ip helper-address x.x.x.x on an interface in IOS).
Another is in a Wifi environment when you're using a Win7 PC with a bridge NDIS
adapter set up over an Ethernet and Wifi adapter. The PC will always forward
packets with its own source address, because doing promiscuous mode at 100Mb/s
or 1Gb/s is too expensive (and you don't have the Content-Addressable-Memory to
do fast cache lookups for Spanning Tree).
There are other scenarios as well.
The bottom line is that you can't trust the MAC address, especially when the
client and server aren't physically adjacent.
As for highly non-default, actually *MOST* DHCP clients (HP printers,
iPhones, Windows, Symbian phones, etc) ALL use a client-id with
01:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.
I was surprised to see that Linux/BSD *doesn't* do this.
Quoting RFC 1533
==
9.12. Client-identifier
This option is used by DHCP clients to specify their unique
identifier. DHCP servers use this value to index their database of
address bindings. This value is expected to be unique for all
clients in an administrative domain.
Identifiers consist of a type-value pair, similar to the
It is expected that this field will typically contain a hardware type
and hardware address, but this is not required. Current legal values
for hardware types are defined in [22].
The code for this option is 61, and its minimum length is 2.
Code Len Type Client-Identifier
+-+-+-+-+-+---
| 61 | n | t1 | i1 | i2 | ...
+-+-+-+-+-+---
==
t1 is the same as the bootp htype (i.e. 1 for Ethernet).
i1..i6 as the same as bootp chaddr field (i.e. MAC address).

My dhcp server is expecting my client (the FC12 box) to send a request

Unfortunately, by default Fedora omits this option in the request.
Is there an easy way to do this? Like:
interface eth0 {
send dhcp-client-identifier hardware;
}
Dhclient settings aside, I'm afraid I don't understand the original
issue. Would you care to elaborate why is the server expecting some
non-default behavior? What is the error message on the server side?
There are a variety of conditions where you can't rely on the MAC source
address being correct.
[snip]
The bottom line is that you can't trust the MAC address, especially when
the client and server aren't physically adjacent.
Well, AFAIK both dhcp-client-identifier and MAC address are usually assumed to
be equally unique (at least theoretically), for example when matching to a
host declaration on the server side. So I guess they are basically equally
trusted (while equally spoofable... :-) ).
As for highly non-default, actually *MOST* DHCP clients (HP printers,
iPhones, Windows, Symbian phones, etc) ALL use a client-id with
01:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx.
I was surprised to see that Linux/BSD *doesn't* do this.
Maybe this is normal behavior for such systems, but for a typical *computer*
network I've never seen this to be a requirement. Besides, the dhcpd server
can easily be configured to prefer dhcp-client-identifier and fallback to MAC
if
the identifier isn't available. At least in Linux version of dhcpd. :-)
Philosophy aside, if your server forces you to use identifiers rather than
MACs, then you can try this syntax in dhclient.conf:
send dhcp-client-identifier = hardware;
I haven't tried it (and I really can't set up a virtual dhcpd just to try it
out), but man dhcp-options says the following:
quote
SETTING OPTION VALUES USING EXPRESSIONS
Sometimes it’s helpful to be able to set the value of a DHCP option
based on some value that the client has sent. To do this, you can use
expression evaluation. The dhcp-eval(5) manual page describes how to write
expressions. To assign the result of an evaluation to an option, define the
option as follows:
option my-option = expression ;
For example:
option hostname = binary-to-ascii (16, 8, -, substring (hardware, 1, 6));
/quote
Now, I know these instructions are for setting options on the server side, but
the same syntax just might work also in the client context. Not sure, but
worth a try. ;-)
OTOH, man dhcp-eval says
quote
hardware
The hardware operator returns a data string whose first element is the type of
network interface indicated in packet being considered, and whose...
/quote
Note the packet being considered phrase. What you are trying to do is to
have the hardware keyword evaluate to the MAC of your network card, which
doesn't involve any particular packet, but rather local hardware data. So in
this sense this whole approach just might not work at all, design-wise. If
that is the case, I can only suggest to create a bash script which will read
up the actual MAC from, say, output of ifconfig and modify each particular
dhclient.conf to hard-code this MAC at the appropriate place. Then run this
script on your whole farm of machines. This is just a workaround that avoids
having yourself to manually configure dhclient for each particular machine, but
it's better than nothing. ;-) The syntax
send dhcp-client-identifier 01:aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff;
should definitely work, so this kind of workaround should also definitely work.
HTH, :-)

IOW, it's not just a eye-candy plymouth boot, but also avoiding that ugly annoying click that the monitor does when switching. Also, the virtual terminals look much nicer in hi-res. :-) Finally, the KMS idea is apparently more elegant code-wise, because it neatly splits the kernel-side and user-side of the driver. At least in the nouveau case --- they don't even support non-KMS driver anymore. I believe there is a trend to do the same in the intel and radeon world as well.
