FC 5 is a major step forward
by William John Murray 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

Hello all, I would just like to offer my congratulations and thanks to all who made the FC5 release what it is. For me the two big leaps are: * Laptop suspend: Really handy in meetings * Xen: This 'just works', for FC5 xenU, and others with effort * +latest Evolution: finally smooth [if slow] Exchange integration. Both work nicely, and come on top of all the previous features This really is something for you to be proud of. Thank you, Bill

Re: problem with ulimit

Hugh, Login as root and add the following lines to "/etc/security/limits.conf": <username> soft core unlimited <username> hard core unlimited Then log in as <username> and use "ulimit -Sc" and "ulimit -Hc" to verify that both the soft and hard limits have been set to unlimited. I hope that works for you, Matthew Roth InterMedia Marketing Solutions Software Engineer and Systems Developer Hugh Caley wrote: >I'm definitely NOT running ulimit as root; that kind of the point ;) As >root, I can set it, but I need to be able to allow a user on the machine >to dump core. > >Hugh >

RE: Fedora Core 4 TFTP - Permission denied
by Jay Isaacs 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

I done that and have a few Solaris systems running tftp. I have touched a file in the tftpboot directory and made it world writable. I've even gone so far as doing a chmod 777, but to no avail a tftp put fails. If I do not run tftp from xinetd I get all the expected behavior. If tftp is run from xinetd no matter what we have tried I can not put a file to the system. -----Original Message----- From: Scot L.

nss_ldap broken again
by Yang Xiao 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

Hi all, I'm using nss_ldap-249 that's bundled with FC5 to authenticate with windows AD domian, there seems to be something broken on the way nss_ldap is querying for secondary group names and it dies if any user is in multiple group,s this used to work fine under FC4. Anybody having the same problem? - Yang [root@host ~]# id user id: ../../../libraries/liblber/sockbuf.c:89: ber_sockbuf_ctrl: Assertion `( (sb)->sb_opts.lbo_valid == 0x3 )' failed. uid=188(user) gid=100(users)Aborted ---- and strace of the above command --- open("/usr/share/locale/en_US.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/en_US.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/en_US/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/en.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/en.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) write(2, "id: ../../../libraries/liblber/s"..., 118id: ../../../libraries/liblber/sockbuf.c:89: ber_sockbuf_ctrl: Assertion `( (sb)->sb_opts.lbo_valid == 0x3 )' failed. ) = 118 rt_sigprocmask(SIG_UNBLOCK, [ABRT], NULL, 8) = 0

FC5 Anaconda fails to start GUI
by Geoffrey Leach 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

After loading the correct drivers and starting Anaconda, the process stalls. In the case of the X-based process, I have the X cursor, which moves with the mouse. On a text install, just a blue screen. The DVD has passed mediacheck. The system config (which runs FC4) includes a dual-Opteron 240 AccelerTech 2082 MB, lots of mem, dual SATA disks with a Promise controller and no RAID enabled. All non-essential devices have been disconnected. Any suggestions before I submit this to Bugzilla?

I'm definitely NOT running ulimit as root; that kind of the point ;) As root, I can set it, but I need to be able to allow a user on the machine to dump core. Hugh > > * /From/: "Davdi C.
