[Bug 1386869] Re: -host in auto.master not mounting nfs exports

2014-12-07 Thread Paul Smith
Is there a reason we can't just go get the patches that Ian Kent already
provided for Fedora (see my link to the Red Hat bugzilla entry, which
contains references to RPM versions that fix the problem) and apply them
here and/or in Debian since the bug exists there as well?

[Bug 488696] Re: syntax error in nsswitch config near [ syntax error ]

2012-08-25 Thread Paul Smith
Steve's comment #18 is not correct.  Automount was first created in the
late 1980's, and when Sun released the first version of name service
switch  in the early 1990's, it was already being used to manage
automount maps.  Automount maps have been considered a standard, basic
name service ever since, on every version of UNIX that has ever
implemented nsswitch.conf.

I think that it's a great idea that autofs be enhanced so that if
there's no entry in nsswitch.conf, autofs will not fail but will instead
assume files.  However, the bug against base-files is NOT invalid.
Automount entries DO belong in nsswitch.conf and the standard value is
automount: files nis and this should be preserved in Ubuntu.

I agree that _ideally_ someone would modify libc to support
/etc/nsswitch.d and individual packages (like autofs) could add their
own files there containing name service switch configuration.  However,
until that day comes please add back the automount entry to
nsswitch.conf in base-files.  The fact that it's not there is a
legitimate bug.

[Bug 1040846] [NEW] Missing content in /etc/nsswitch.conf causes failure

2012-08-23 Thread Paul Smith
Public bug reported:

I can't find any package that /etc/nsswitch.conf belongs to, so I'm
reporting this issue here since it's related to automount.

I use NIS to distribute automount databases, and the autofs5 package.
My /etc/auto.master file contains:

+auto.master

and I can run ypcat -k auto.master and it works fine.  However, when I
start automount -f -v I get these errors:

~# automount -f -v
Starting automounter version 5.0.6, master map /etc/auto.master
using kernel protocol version 5.02
syntax error in nsswitch config near [ syntax error ]

lookup(file): failed to read included master map auto.master
no mounts in table

Looking at /etc/nsswitch.conf I see that there is NO entry for
automount at all in this file.  I added a line like this:

automount: files nis

and after that, it worked fine.

I'm not sure why you think retrieving domain info from the DHCP server

Is anyone ever going to do anything about this?  I know it's not an easy

the people and which are not harmful (for example, not updating

If we could do at least that, then we'd solve this problem for a lot of
people with little effort and no deleterious effects.

Please??

 ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 50430
NIS has problems starting before the network comes up

Why has this bug been marked as a duplicate of 50430?

50430 talks about NIS (ypbind) not working properly on NetworkManager
enabled systems.  That should be fixed for a few releases now, and
indeed I haven't seen it on my systems in a while.  My suspicion is that
the people who are still having trouble are really having problems with
NetworkManager not detecting/reporting the network status of their
systems properly (saying the network is up when it isn't or vice versa).


This bug (213574) is about autofs not working properly on NetworkManager
enabled systems.  That is basically the same problem, but a completely
different package (in fact that's my major complaint about
NetworkManager: adding it to your system requires that you go around and
hack on each network-aware service on your system, one at a time, to
make them compatible with NetworkManager).

I've not upgraded to Karmic but I've seen absolutely nothing that leads
me to believe anyone has made any effort to enhance autofs, either the
daemon itself (a la ypbind) or even just the init scripts, to be
NM-aware.  Until that happens this bug will not be fixed.

What has to happen on a very abstract level is that you can't start
autofs until all the services that it utilizes (based
on /etc/nsswitch.conf for example) are running, if they are supposed to
be started.  It's hard because on many systems, /etc/nsswitch.conf lists
nis or nisplus as a source for automount, and yet these services are
not enabled.  On other systems, automount data is taken from LDAP.
Other places it comes from flat files.  Etc.

And remember, by running I don't just mean that the init script has
completed.  In the brave new world of NetworkManager, having the init
script complete does NOT mean that the service is available.  It just
means that it may _become_ available, sometime later.

autofs has to wait until these services are actually active, before it
can start.  In the old days, with a simple serialized boot process
implying that once an init script was complete that service was
available, this was simple.  Now it's become very tricky indeed.

[Bug 246322] Re: nis package must provide DHCP client scripts

2008-07-08 Thread Paul Smith
After I filed this I realized there was no facility for updating
dhclient.conf via dpkg scripting, so I also filed bug #246343 to have
these fields added to the dhclient.conf request line by default.  It
won't hurt anything to have them requested there: if they're not
available from the server then there's no problem; if they are available
and the nis package is not installed (which it is not by default!) then
no difference.

As for extra complications, I don't know that I agree.  The NTP package,
for example, doesn't require extra setup to turn on this feature.  The
scripts are added to the dhclient exit hooks on package install without
any confirmation from the user.  We don't ask them whether they'd like
to allow their DNS servers to be overridden or not.  Like NTP, NIS is
not installed by default: the user must explicitly install it.  I
honestly can't think of any reason why someone would NOT want to use the
nis-domain and nis-server settings that are provided to them from their
DHCP server.  The only time a DHCP server would be configured to provide
that information, after all, was if the admin knew it was needed.  NIS
is NOT something you find in your everyday internet cafe etc.

I can see why this might be problematic based on the fact that it's
potentially a change in behavior, but that's what Intrepid is for right?
Many, many other behaviors are changed without warning on every release
if Ubuntu.  My opinion is that the default on package install should be
to automatically accept DHCP settings, and if users want to disable this
they can either (a) edit dhclient.conf and turn off the request entry,
or (b) there can be some other facility via /etc/defaults or whatever
that the NIS dhclient exit hooks look at to disable it.  Note that the
hook script would of course be written to preserve the existing
/etc/yp.conf file (traditionally it would be renamed to
/etc/yp.conf.dhcp) when obtaining a lease and put it back when releasing
the lease, so we only override explicit user settings for the duration
of the DHCP client connection, then they are put back.

I'll point out that the enabled by default behavior is how other
distros do this.

[Bug 90681] Re: resolv.conf overwritten using VPN/PPP etc...

2008-07-03 Thread Paul Smith
I hit this too; my company uses Juniper's NetworkConnect and it adds its
own DNS servers as the first ones to search to /etc/resolv.conf.  I
disabled the download of the DNS server info altogether which is
obviously not optimal, but works OK for me because I've installed a
Linux image on my Linksys router and enabled dnsmasq, so my local LAN
DNS server is always my router, which never changes, not my upstream
ISP.  But, when I configured a laptop for a friend they have this
problem in spades.

To me, anything that watches for changes to /etc/resolv.conf and tries
to change things back again is just not reliable enough.  Ditto for
having scripts depending on seeing a tun0 or ppp0 or whatever interface.

I think the right answer HAS to be a smarter dhclient script.  It's the
only one that seems reliable and robust.  An easy answer that will help
most of the time was already suggested: if the hostname to be added to
resolv.conf already exists, then don't change resolv.conf.  This seems
like something that is obviously correct and won't cause any problems.

This works for me because my VPN solution leaves the original nameserver
entry in /etc/resolv.conf, it's just put at the bottom.  I suppose some
people might have problems if their VPN solution completely replaces
/etc/resolv.conf.  That might require a more sophisticated solution.

The bug is in the libldap package.  When you get a new version of that
(which I believe is out now, even for the standard repositories) then
all applications that use LDAP (including Evolution, xscreensaver,
Apache, etc.) will use it and have the fix.

There's no need for a new Apache package, because there's been no ABI
change and so no need to rebuild Apache.

It's the miracle of shared libraries!! :-)

This is still in -proposed?  I think it's pretty clear what this bug is
and that it's fixed by the update; we've had a number of people testing
it and reporting success already.  Plus, if you look at the actual
patch, it's pretty clear that it fixes the problem.

IMHO this should get promoted out of -proposed and into the standard
repo quickly.  This is a crasher that impacts a wide range of software.
What exactly is the criteria needed to approve the the promote?  Maybe
we need to figure out a way that this bug is really a security issue
:-).

Thanks!

[Bug 215904] Re: [SRU] (ITS#5518) Assertion error in io.c:234: ber_flush2

2008-06-09 Thread Paul Smith
Sorry, I didn't realize people were waiting for me.  I have no recipe
for reliably reproducing the problem using Evolution so I can't be 100%
sure that it's been fixed.  However, I've been using the fix since Chuck
posted his PPA version on 23 May, and -proposed version since it was
uploaded, and I've never had this crash happen since.  So, insofar as I
can be, I'm sure this bug is crushed.

Cheers!

[Bug 215904] Re: (ITS#5518) Assertion error in io.c:234: ber_flush2

2008-05-23 Thread Paul Smith
I've loaded up these libraries to test the Evo Exchange crasher.
Unfortunately there was no reliable way to reproduce it; you just had to
do lots of work and eventually it would happen.  However, I've added a
debugging message to the code so that I'll know when I've hit a point
where it SHOULD have happened, so I can see if it proceeds correctly in
that situation or not.  Also unfortunately my company is moving to a new
building this weekend so the Exchange server is down at the moment (but
should be up later tonight).

2008-05-22 Thread Paul Smith
I found this bug, I think.  We're getting identical problems causing
Evolution Exchange to crash.  The problem is ldap is accessing memory
after it's been freed.

Here's the Gnome bug with lots of backtraces and some valgrind logs I
used to figure it out:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=512605

and here's the new bug I filed with openldap describing the issue:
