new fedora python-tox package update to use /usr/bin/tox instead of ~/.local
by Richard Megginson 23 Feb '22

23 Feb '22

There is a new update for python-tox which will allow us to use /usr/bin/tox with tox-lsr instead of pip installed tox in ~/.local. If you can, please try it out for your platform and give karma and feedback: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-b92582ad8f https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-f2194b5e99 https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2022-0e94d4a25d https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-e045602ff5

Re: System Role for managing a Password Policy

Hi there, So I cloned the template at https://github.com/linux-system-roles/template and started to work on my very first try. You'll find my first minimum version which is not fully functional, not production ready and for sure full of bugs and bad practises yet at https://github.com/Tronde/pam_pwd. Since this is my very first attempt to contribute to the Linux System Role project I would like to ask for some early guidance and mentoring. Please let me know if you see any issues or problems in style of coding etc. Your feedback is welcome and appreciated to help my to improve my skill. Here on the list or as a GitHub issue. I still have to deal with some issues implementing the steps for a password policy described in the Red Hat KB [Set Password Policy/Complexity in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8](https://access.redhat.com/solutions/5027331). And I'm going to check how things work in RHEL 9 Beta. So I may have to move some tasks to release specific playbooks. But I'm very interested in getting early feedback from you folks so I won't run in the wrong direction a long time. Looking forward to reading from you. Best regards, Joerg

Great! Then I'll just start and let you know when I have something to show. Regards, Joerg

System Role for managing a Password Policy
by Jörg Kastning 10 Feb '22

Hello folks, My name is Joerg and I'm employed as a System Administrator at Bielefeld University. I'm tasked to implement a password policy for our Linux systems. And I would like to contribute to the Linux System Roles project by creating a System Role for managing a Password Policy as described in Bugzilla 2038620 (URL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2038620) I read the contribution guide but still have some questions before I start. Is it a good way to start by cloning the template at https://github.com/linux-system-roles/template? And to sent a pull request once I have a minimum viable product to show? Or would you suggest another way to start? Looking forward to reading your answers, soon. Best regards, Joerg -- Jörg Kastning Plattformen und Serverdienste BITS - Bielefelder IT-Service Centre
