Fedora 10 (Rawhide) missing pand - UPDATED
by Andrew Kenton Mitchell
I sent a message asking for advice/help yesterday. Sorry if I'm
burdening anybody's in box, however, I have more info and I wanted to share.
The rawhide bluez-utils package seems to be missing /usr/bin/pand.
I tried to add the --enable-pand witch and rebuild the RPM from sources
however, bluez-utils-3.36-2.fc10.src.rpm doesn't seem to want to extract
on my system.
I dug around to see if pand was provided by a differing package:
# yum whatprovides */pand
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
bluez-utils-3.36-2.fc10.i386 : Bluetooth utilities
Matched from:
Filename : /etc/rc.d/init.d/pand
Filename : /etc/sysconfig/pand
bluez-utils-3.36-2.fc10.i386 : Bluetooth utilities
Matched from:
Filename : /etc/rc.d/init.d/pand
Filename : /etc/sysconfig/pand
Then I decided to try a bluez-utils reinstall:
]# yum install bluez-utils
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit

The init script error surprised me. Does anybody know if this is a just
a bug. Is pand being depreciated? If so, what is the replacement?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Can anybody suggest a fix or alternative?

MacBook Pro FC9 Issues
by Rupak kumar Bag
Wondering if any of you folks have tried FC9 on the latest Mac Book Pro (I
just got one a month back).
I am facing 2 problems with my machine:
1) MBP has bcm4328 chipset and I have ndiswrapper and network manager
installed. Network manager is behaving randomly in the sense that sometimes
it allows me to connect to a secure WPA wireless connection but sometimes
denies me connection asking me to type the connection password again.
Retyping password doesn;t necessrily lets me in, but I keep trying 1-2 more
times and it lets me in. I tried blacklisting

Privilege factors
by Gopal Ghosh
Dear All, could any one help me with Privilege available to *root /su/ sudo and
also the difference between the above three
****************************************************************
[gopalghosh@localhost ~]$ whoami
gopalghosh
[gopalghosh@localhost ~]$ login
login: root
Password:
Login incorrect {why it is saying Login incorrect as I am typing the correct
password}
[gopalghosh@localhost ~]$ login
login: root
Password:
Login incorrect
[gopalghosh@localhost ~]$ su
Password: {when I logged as su it accepted the same password}
[root@localhost gopalghosh]# sudo ls
Desktop Documents Download Music Pictures Public Templates Videos
[root@localhost gopalghosh]# exit exit
[gopalghosh@localhost ~]$ sudo nano
We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.
#3) With great power comes great responsibility.
[sudo] password for gopalghosh:
gopalghosh is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. {how
to add my local login in sudoers file}

Manually setting MTUs
by Andrew Kenton Mitchell
If I look at /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bnep0 the MTU is
1691. This is the minimum specified by
http://www.bluetooth.com/Bluetooth/Technology/Works/BNEP.htm:
[root@LTSecond ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bnep0
# Broadcom BCM92035DGROM USB Bluetooth Adapter - Bluetooth: BNEP
(Ethernet Emulation) ver 1.2
DEVICE=bnep0
HWADDR=00:0E:A1:33:A1:22
ONBOOT=no
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
IPV6INIT=no
NM_CONTROLLED=yes

DNS2=69.94.123.190
DNS1=69.94.123.189
USERCTL=no
PEERDNS=no
MTU=1691
[root@LTSecond ~]#
However, ifconfig shows 1500:
[root@LTSecond ~]# ofcpnfig bnep0
-bash: ofcpnfig: command not found
[root@LTSecond ~]# ifcpnfig bnep0
-bash: ifcpnfig: command not found
[root@LTSecond ~]# ifconfig bnep0

Anybody have any ideas why this won't manually set?
Thanks for any help,
