Description of problem:
Under section 7.3.4, in 'Procedure 7.5. Adding a New VPN Connection':
3. There is no VPN menu entry, There is also no interface option if you select
the plus sign, however if you click the plus sign and select VPN, and then set
the type of VPN, you can begin configuring the connection.
4. There is no create button
5. After clicking the plus button you are asked to choose the protocol type
6. The 'add network connection' dialogue comes up with the identity section
selected on the left side of the dialogue
1,2,3. The dialogue is different to what is shown in 'Figure 7.5. Editing the
newly-created VPN connection 1.' Also the menu items do not correspond with the
instructions in 1,2,3.

Description of problem:
Section 3.3.7 - Manualy adjusting system clock
1) Manually spelt wrong in title
2) when typing the commands listed, I get the following:
$ chrony
chrony version 1.28-pre1

chronyc> password
password: (tried root password)
501 Not authorised --- Reply not authenticated
chronyc> makestep
501 Not authorised
After consulting the help file (e.g. chronyc> help) it states:
password [<new-password>] : Set command authentication password
So it seems the password option sets the command auth password, but then it
should have set the password so this is confusing.

Summary: Guide should document chronyd, not ntpd
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: system-administrator's-guide
Severity: unspecified
Priority: unspecified
Assignee: jhradile(a)redhat.com
Reporter: me(a)petetravis.com
QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
CC: jhradile(a)redhat.com
As of F16, Fedora uses `chrony` (chronyd.service) as the default time
daemon[1]. Chrony monitors and offsets local clock skew, making it superior
for machines without a constant connection to an ntp server. It also
effectively changes the system clock for even very large time changes, where
ntpd would require manual adjustment. The System administrator's guide should
be updated to reflect this.
The following sections, and references to them, should be updated:
2.2.3, “Configuring the Network Time Protocol”
D.1.14. /etc/sysconfig/ntpd

Summary: UEFI Secure Boot and Hibernate (Suspend to Disk)
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: install-guide
Assignee: pbokoc(a)redhat.com
Reporter: justin.mitchell.bennett(a)gmail.com
QA Contact: docs-qa(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
CC: oglesbyzm(a)gmail.com, pbokoc(a)redhat.com
Description of problem:
With OEMs shipping preloads of Windows 8 on new purchase computers, UEFI tends
to be enabled by default. Though Fedora can work with a secure boot UEFI bios,
certain features have been disable (See Fedora 18 UEFI Secure Boot Edition
18.4).
As hibernation (suspend to disk) functionality has been disabled on an UEFI
Secure Boot system, users need to be aware, prior to installation of Fedora (as
sole OS on the system), whether to enable or disable this functionality.
Those using Fedora on a laptop/netbook, shouldn't discover *after* completing
installation, that hibernation has been disabled. It becomes a huge pain, to
google how to disable the /boot/efi partition, and grub2, if even possible.
If not documented or referenced in the install-guide, CommonBugs should make
note of this issue.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 18, Fedora 19
How reproducible:
Install Fedora on a system with a Secure Boot, UEFI, enabled bios.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.

3.

Summary: A couple of suggestions for 9.17. Installation
Complete
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: install-guide
Keywords: Documentation
Severity: unspecified
Priority: unspecified

Hey Petr,
Just a couple of suggestions for section 9.17. Installation Complete
"Now that you have configured the remaining settings, your Fedora installation
is now complete!" --> "Now that you have configured the remaining settings,
your Fedora installation is complete."
"9.17.1. Initial Setup in GNOME" --> GNOME Initial Setup
"haven't" --> "have not"
"The Initial Setup application is only available for GNOME."
This might need some rewording since we now have two initial setup apps in
Fedora (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/NewFirstboot,
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/InitialExperience) that do almost the
same thing, but target different DEs.
"create an user account" --> "create a user account"
"After you are finished configuring" --> "After you have finished configuring"
"On the first login, the Gnome Help application will automatically open"
The application is called Yelp, not Gnome Help. However, you probably just want
to mention that "GNOME Help will automatically open...".
"Figure 9.40. Language selection in Gnome Initial Setup" --> "Language
selection in GNOME Initial Setup"

Summary: Storage Administration Guide is obsolete or not?
Product: Fedora Documentation
Version: devel
Component: storage-administration-guide
Severity: medium
Priority: unspecified
Reporter: q2dg(a)yahoo.es
I've seen in http://docs.fedoraproject.org that last version of "Storage
Administration Guide" is for Fedora 14. It's more than two years ago!!
I don't know if this fact is due to this guide doesn't need any update or if
it's due to a lack of love from editors.
I want to notify this in Bugzilla to remember this situation, but I'm not sure
it is really a bug...
Could you tell me the reason of this abandonment?
Thanks!!
