I'm just wondering if anyone has experience storing public keys in 389 directory server to allow a user to login using an ssh-key rather than a password? I am running the server on Ubuntu 13.10 and the client is Ubuntu 12.04. Last time I checked it requires patched openssh-server for Ubuntu.

Re: [389-users] SSH Public keys
We use Kerberos, with LDAP (389DS) as our storage backend, which makes
standing up Kerberos servers really easy, and keeps replication in perfect
sync unlike normal Kerberos replication. Together with SSSD and sudo-ldap
this all makes a pretty powerful combination.
On RHEL/CentOS platforms, install krb5-server-ldap and configure
/etc/krb5.conf accordingly:
[dbmodules]
REALM = {
db_library = kldap
ldap_kerberos_container_dn=dc=some,dc=container
ldap_kdc_dn = uid=kdc,cn=config
ldap_kadmind_dn = uid=kadmin,cn=config
ldap_service_password_file =
/var/kerberos/krb5kdc/realm/service.keyfile
ldap_servers = ldaps://ldap1.realm ldaps://ldap0.realm
ldaps://ldap2.realm
}
Of course there's more to it, but you'll have to google the details, I
can't remember the details off the top of my head. Create the appropriate
LDAP credentials of course, as well as creating the LDAP service.keyfile ...

Re: [389-users] SSH Public keys
I agree FreeIPA is a good solution but it does have limitations
the one down side to it is you loose some flexibility with FreeIPA for
instance in in places where you may want strict security policy
separations like a web application farm or a larger enterprises with
many subsidiaries you may want to have multiple OU's with different
replication policies and security ACL's FreeIPA doesn't support that.
On a side note neither does the MIT kerberos V server strictly
speaking but you can workaround that by running multiple instances on
different ports or you can use a Heimdal kerberos V server.

Re: F20: Cisco vpn does not launch after a couple of wake-ups from hibernate
If you insist on using proprietary solution rather than free and open one, go ahead, knock yourself out. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd/Services#Cisco_AnyConnect_VPN http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/systemd-for-admins-3.html Good luck with that, Ran. ;) Thanks for your e-mail, poma. Btw, you got my name wrong, but anyway. Well, I agree with you on staying off proprietary solutions, but as with flash, I don't really have an option here. The Cisco vpn is needed to be a node on my employer's network sot that I can access stuff that they have a license for. It is the only thing that they will accept. Openvpn never worked for accessing there: I have tried earlier and for insane amounts of time (a few Fedora's ago, to no avail.) I will look into this, but it seems that the agent is not started or killed after a couple of wakeups from hibernate. This did not use to be an issue earlier (F19 and before).

backup thoughts..
hi. looking to be able to backup a number of machines running fed (and possibly other linux flavors) I'm considering some sort of agent process, where the owner/user can define the dirs that the owner wants backed up. This kind of approach would allow us to be able to track when things get backed up, as well as what's getting backed up. The downside of this, we don't want to backup all of the OS tree, but at the same time, if a dev has created apps that toss stuff into the OS tree, it might not get backed up, unless specified...

Or, is there a way to do an unattended install that simply uses the modified kickstart file, since it would have all of the selected entries?

Re: dnf-yum observation - link corrected
I tried dnf. One major issue that I did not like is that I asked it to install a bunch of stuff, one of which was not available (in F20). That meant dnf would not install anything. Also it was not clear to me that it was using deltarpms. Of course, I did not look into all possibilities so there may be some setting that I needed to have. Other than these, it worked fine for me.

installing akmod-nividia on F20 - machine hang after reboot, Started Builds ...
Hello, fedora users, I have an Nvidia graphic card. Instead of using the default nouveau driver, I installed akmod-nvidia (simply by yum -y install akmod-nvidia) Now first time after installing akmod-nvidia and restarting the machine boot hanged with this message: [OK] Started Builds and install kmods from akmod packages. I waited for more than 10 minutes and nothing happened, I cannot boot. Any ideas ? what should I do so that it will boot OK ? regards, DavidS -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

I don't know why it would hang, but did you also install gcc, kernel-headers, kernel-devel?

Everything else worked fine out of the box but the Universal Access keyboard appears to work only after a desktop session is logged into. From web search, it seems that some folks had been trying to do this since several Fedora versions ago but there appeared to be no solution. Is this still the case even with F20 and I should be looking at other distribution instead or is there some way around this? It has been a while, so I do not remember the exact details. But what you need to do is have your display manager launch the virtual keyboard as part of the init sequence. I am guessing that for gdm, you would put it in the /etc/gdm/custom.conf. You may also want to look at the /etc/X11/xinit directory tree. Add a file in /etc/X11/xinit/xinit.d?

I notice from the webpage http://www.infradead.org/openconnect/mail.html that there are two gui's: NetworkManager-openconnect and connman: any preferences for either? http://blogs.gnome.org/dcbw/2009/06/25/networkmanager-and-connman/ Thanks! Btw, I was able to get NetworkManager work with openconnect. (It however had troubled coming up after a hibernate, but did eventually make it after a few tries. Not clear why this happened.) So, at least before Cisco breaks this perhaps (don't really know if it is part of their plan a la Microsoft), we are good with openconnect. Judging by it, I will soon have a completely OSS laptop (if flash can be gotten rid of). Best wishes, Ranjan FREE ONLINE PHOTOSHARING - Share your photos online with your friends and family!

OCR
For f20, is there an OCR program for extracting the text out of a pdf scan? I have an old document of 'Assembly Instructions'. Some can be found at: http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~bcd/humor/instruction.set.html, but I have a few more. And a lot less. But I want the ones that were passed around in my assembly writing days (early 80s). -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

Re: F20 has blurry font rendering

The auto-hint trick is bad advice and the Gnome bug is not related at all. I found the issue to be Gnome 3.10 - after downgrading fontconfig/pango did not change anything. Disabling the 'xsettings' plugin of gnome-settings-daemon results in sharp, crystal clear fonts like F19.

Re: [SOLVED] installing akmod-nividia on F20 - machine hang after reboot, Started Builds ...
Hello, Thanks for all those who gave an advice. After running: yum -y install kernel-devel and rebooting the machine, the problem disappears. It seems to me that the akmod-nvidia rpm should require kernel-devel, because it is useless without it; so that yum install akmod-nvidia will also install kernel-devel. The kernel-devel rpm is not part of the default installation of Fedora 20, and I am sure that other people encountered this issue.
