taran1s:

I have an issue with Split GPG as well as with opening files in the
disposable VMs and with the qrexec in the guide How to use Monero
CLI/daemon with Qubes + Whonix too.

https://www.getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/cli_wallet_daemon_isolation_qubes_whonix.html


Split GPG

Opening Thunderbird, I get following errors in the notification popup:

Denied: whonix.NewStatus
Denied whonix.NewStatus+status from work-email to sys-whonix

I have to as well make every gpg action confirm in the Dom0 Operation
Execution with Target GPG backend.

Using dispVMs from within AppVM

When trying to convert file or open it in the disposable VM from within
the normal AppVM, I get an error popuplike :

Denied: qubes.PdfConvert
Denied qubes.pdfConvert from work-email to @dispvm

Any advice appreciated!


Is this mailing list still active or one needs to better go to a different
place?



Still active, but the Forum has more traffic, although it's often low
grade and noisy.

On your questions,  the first looks like a Whonix issue - Patrick has
asked that Qubes-Whonix questions be put in the Whonix forums, where
they will get better oversight.
The second looks like permissions - look in the policy file at
/etc/qubes-rpc/policy/qubes.PdfConvert


The /etc/qubes-rpc/policy/qubes.PdfConvert has allowed anyvm to run 
PdfConvert

$anyvm $dispvm allow

I already asked on the whonix forum and followed the improved version of 
the guide for Split Monero on Whonix website, but got another error that 
seems like the monero-wallet-ws AppVM doesnt see the monerod-ws AppVM. 
Monero GUI cannot connect and monero-wallet-cli returns this error:


Error: wallet failed to connect to daemon: http://localhost:18081. 
Daemon either is not started or wrong port was passed. Please make sure 
daemon is running or change the daemon address using the ‘set_daemon’ 
command.

Background refresh thread started

The monerod-ws is syncing albeit it gets quite a lot Socks errors here 
and there and sometimes freezes


Also in connection with the error related to the PdfConvert, I am not 
sure if the issue wiht the Split Monero is whonix specific or it is 
linked to the general qubes qrexcec setup and permissions of my Qubes.


Qubes 4.1 I use is vanilla and whonix-ws-16 is full vanilla too.

It would be really helpful if someone more experienced could have a look 
into it and provide help. I am cut off from the monero usage now if I 
don't want to use the remote node which I would like to avoid. Tried to 
find an answer on the net but didn't succeed.


Thanks in advance to anyone that can help us solve the issue!

It is a generic deny-all.  LVM sadly defaults to allow-all.

I don't like changing how config file is interpreted - is rather
unfriendly and confusing for those who know what they are doing and
change their lvm.conf. The specific filter syntax is describe in the
comment just above the this option.
The great majority of users do not need to change it (unless we missed
some common device? but then we should update the default filter), so
the risk of messing it up by novice user is minimal.

Marek, should we patch LVM to add a trailing "r|.*|" if none is present?
Not having it creates a vulnerable system, which is bad.
