If not, it could be operating from something still in memory. When a browser gets stuck in the past, there's two usual culprits: * It's cached the files its downloaded, and won't fetch new versions (*often* you can simply reload the page, sometimes while holding a qualifier key down - like the SHIFT key). * It's remembered the IP address that it connected to before, and won't check to see if the IP has changed (this has always required a full program exit, to clear, with my browsers). I don't know whether, for either case, it's obeying the information it was told for how long it's permitted to cache the data (regardless of how impractical it may be), or ignoring it and following the browser programmer's ideas on what's best to do (regardless of how impractical that may be, too).

Generally I’d say you only need objectClass in aci’s where you have modification rights occuring to ensure that the bounds of the modification are constrained. If you are only adding ACI for read, then you can just have targetAttr for the attributes required. The best way to think of this is “what groups or roles need access to read what attributes”. So I’d write out something like: everyone read -> a1, a2, a3 …. admins read -> …. Then I’d translate these to the read-aci’s you require > > Do I need to create a deny-all as last ACI so everything that is not allowed > gets denied? No, 389 defaults to deny, so anything “not list” will be disallowed. > > In your blog you talk about a toolset to test ACIs, is that tool published > somewhere? Sadly not - some parts of it have become part of lib389 in the healthcheck module to find targetAttr != rules, but the actual testing of “do these aci’s match expectations”, was part of a previous work place, and I no longer have access. Again, you can translate the above to something: You would basically say “for each object in the directory”. if that object is in: everyone -> expect read on a1, a2 …. admins -> expect read on a3, a4 …. Then I’d do the permission check (there is a 389 specific ldap extended op) that tells you what rights you have other entries. I’d assert the expect matches each check, and continue. It was pretty overkill and kind of brute-force solution, but it is what lead to the discovery of the aci issues with targetAttr != - I’d say if you don’t use targetAttr != you probably are already in a really good position to audit and understand the interactions with your directory, so you may not need the tool at all.

Maybe it would be better to make the distinction a different way. The test list is used for communications of the Fedora QA team, and for people who are actively, well, _testing_ the software. This list is the _users_ list, and is for people who are _using_ the software. Rather than saying "wrong list!" if someone is using a beta or rawhide release _as a user_, we could just be more accepting of those posts here. Of course, some times the response would be "well, that's beta still, so don't expect perfection". But in reality, a lot of software that's updated in rawhide or beta is upstream changes, and those changes are likely to land in final. To me, it makes perfect sense to talk about the user impact here. In the cases where it then goes into a QA topic, we could encourage discussion to move to the test list (or to a bug report). -- Matthew Miller Fedora Project Leader ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

issues with F30 Live USB stick
I created an F30 Live USB stick, but it won't boot properly. What happens is that it drops into emergency mode (dracut). Prior to this, journal messages from dracut-initqueue appear on the screen, the same message repeating every few seconds for a minute or so, then it drops into emergency mode. The repeating message is: dracut--initqueue timeout -- starting timeout scripts Then it just says "Warning: could not boot" and drops into emergency mode. I did verify that my download of "Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-30-1.2.iso" is good (the calculated sha256sum matches the checksum from the download site). I created the stick using "unetbootin" which has always worked for me with previous Fedora releases. I tried rerunning "unetbootin" to recreate the on-stick OS, but the result was the same. I tried the stick on a Dell laptop and on a desktop based on the ASUS Z87 motherboard, same result. Anybody else seen this? Has anyone successfully created an F30 Live USB stick?

Re: Eclipse and Fedora 30 upgrade issue
Matthew Saltzman: Is there a workaround for the issue where the Fedora 30 upgrade decides that all of Eclipse is not compatible with Fedora 30 and removes the complete collection of Eclipse packages? If it's best to wait until the issue is resolved before upgrading, will GNOME Software automatically update my downloaded upgrade packages? If not, how to make sure that update happens before the install? Thanks.

I have theoretically disabled the BLS stuff (so I can boot fedora 30 with the configfile command from an older grub that knows nothing of the BLS support in the configfile).

BLS means that the grub menu's built from "/boot/loader/entries/*" instead of from a monolithic "/boor/grub2/grub.cfg". I had to use "grub2-switch-to-blscfg" for the switch to be made, for a new install using dnf instead of anaconda. The latter might set up BLS by default (does anyone know?). ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

I pointed out that a post relating to unreleased software should go on the Test list. That is the official policy of this list. When dealing with a new release of Fedora, up to the point it is announced, I consider it to be unreleased. There doesn't appear to be any formal definition of what "released" means other than the announcement, so that's what I'm going with. And the number of times we see posts related to unreleased software on this list leads me to the conclusion that, far from being bureaucratic and nit-picking, the occasional reminder is necessary. poc ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
