Hello! I want to update user's .Xauthority file with cookies targeted at new hostname on hostname change via hostnamectl. I need an advice about the best possible approach for solving this problem. I tried to investigate several possible approaches:
- Add xauth functions to systemd-hostnamed (or hostnamectl). This approach will require linking with Xorg libraries and efforts to maintain patch aside from mainstream; - Implement separate systemd service which is activated on request to D-Bus interface org.freedesktop.hostname1 . The problem is that I will need to know if systemd-hostnamed changed hostname correctly somehow and will also need to know previous hostname; - Implement separate application listening D-Bus for PropertiesChanged signal and somehow verify if required property changed. So... Is there any other (more sane) way to solve a problem? Maybe it is possible to create a hook for hostnamed? -- With best regards, Igor Chudov _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
