"Good" sound-editing app for Fedora?
by Brian
Hello:
After some initial guesswork (and deciding to go with a PCI
form-factor once and for all), I now have a soundcard
installed in a Fedora Core 3 machine. However, although it passes "the
test" on the install, I cannot find a suitable app for manipulating
imported files such as ".WAV", "*.MP3", etc. They all seem to indicate
playback-in-progress with the Fedora "bundled" apps, but no sound.
The "Audicity" app is impressive enough with a Mandrake distro, but
attempts to find an .RPM or binary for it with Fedora have proven
useless so far. Suggestions, amyone? :-)

SElinux policy for pine
by James Z. Li
Hi all,
First, sorry for my English.
I wrote a set of SELinux policy rules for pine ( pine-4.63-1.i386.rpm)
on FC4 (targeted).
It works well IF no email attachments involved. As root, you are able
to browse the
whole filesystem: get a file from anywhere as the attachment or save
the attachment
to anywhere you like. Does this make the security policy totally broken?
At the same time, I was also evaluating LIDS (lids.org). As for pine
under LIDS,
it has same problem: it requires WRITE (including READ) permission to "/"
(inode number of "/"). For SELinux, since the policy is based on
domain/type, it is
even worse in the sense of policy writing: it requires one rw_dir_file
rule for each of
several hundreds of types on the whole filesystem, so several hundreds
of rules will
be added.
I was thinking if there is a chroot mode for pine but I could not find
any useful info.
Another potential way to solve this problem is that to create a
directory under user's
(root's) home direcroty, which is only used to store email
attachments: you need
copy files from everywhere else to this directory before you can upload them as
outgoing attachments; and all incoming attachments will be saved to
this directory
first, then you can copy or move them to somewhere else. By doing this, we can
write corresponding policy to label this directory and grant permissions.
Any suggestions?
James
