Also having NFSv4 problems
by Robert G. (Doc) Savage 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

I have mirrors of several repositories a 1TB hardware raid array mounted as /pub on a RHEL54 server. I want to locally export that to several F12 laptops and desktop machines on a gigabit home network using nfs4. I'm having trouble getting F12 nfs4 clients to mount the exported directory on the RHEL54 server. The error I'm getting on the F12 client is: # mount -v -t nfs4 -o rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr lion:/pub /lion mount.nfs4: timeout set for Sun Jan 3 17:16:25 2010 mount.nfs4: trying text-based options 'rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr,addr=192.168.1.2,clientaddr=192.168.1.7' mount.nfs4: mount(2): Operation not permitted mount.nfs4: Operation not permitted Local details: RHEL54 server 'lion' = 192.168.1.2 /etc/exports = *(rw), owned by root, permissions 644 F12 laptop 'tiger' = 192.168.1.7 The server looks fine: # service nfs restart Shutting down NFS mountd: [ OK ] Shutting down NFS daemon: [ OK ] Shutting down NFS quotas: [ OK ] Shutting down NFS services: [ OK ] Starting NFS services: [ OK ] Starting NFS quotas: [ OK ] Starting NFS daemon: [ OK ] Starting NFS mountd: [ OK ] The problem appears to be on the F12 client side: # service nfs restart Shutting down NFS mountd: [FAILED] Shutting down NFS daemon: [ OK ] Shutting down NFS quotas: [ OK ] Shutting down NFS services: [FAILED] Starting NFS services: [ OK ] Starting NFS quotas: [ OK ] Starting NFS daemon: [ OK ] Starting NFS mountd: Usage: rpc.mountd [-F|--foreground] [-h|--help] [-v|--version] [-d kind|--debug kind] [-o num|--descriptors num] [-f exports-file|--exports-file=file] [-p|--port port] [-V version|--nfs-version version] [-N version|--no-nfs-version version] [-n|--no-tcp] [-H ha-callout-prog] [-s|--state-directory-path path] [-g|--manage-gids] [-t num|--num-threads=num] [FAILED] About four years ago I was able to set up a similar arrangement using nfs3 on RHEL4 and F6, but this is my first attempt with nfs4.

SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/cupsd "ipc_lock" access.
by Paolo Galtieri 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

I've started seeing this selinux alert SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/cupsd "ipc_lock" access. [cupsd has a permissive type (cupsd_t). This access was not denied.]SELinux denied access requested by cupsd. It is not expected that this access is required by cupsd and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is causing it to require additional access Is this something I should be concerned about? I'm also seeing this alert SELinux is preventing /usr/bin/gok "getattr" access on /var/mail. SELinux denied access requested by gok. It is not expected that this access is required by gok and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is causing it to require additional access. I don't use gok so I'm not sure why I'm getting these alerts. Paolo

dpkg for building deb package from Fedora
by AlannY 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

Hi there. I'm a developer. I can build RPM package of my software in Fedora with rpmbuild. But now, I want to build deb package for redistributing my software on Debian-based distros. I think, I need dpkg tool for building deb file. But where to find it? I tryed to search all over the net, but articles just tells me how to setup deb file in Fedora (I don't want to setup, just to build). I can create another Virtual Machine for Debian-based distros, but I REALLY don't want to do it. Thanks. -- )\._.,--....,'``. /, _.. \ _\ (`._ ,. `._.-(,_..'--(,_..'`-.;.'

how does one consult /etc/nfsmount.conf when NFS mounting?
by Robert P. J. Day 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

undoubtedly a few more NFS-related questions, and here's one. i notice that the nfs-utils package supplies the conf file /etc/nfsmount.conf. so what exactly consults that file? the man page for that file refers to nfs(5) and mount(8), but the man page for "mount" makes no mention of that file, while the man page for "nfs" reads: MOUNT CONFIGURATION FILE If the mount command is configured to do so, all of the mount options described in the previous section can also be configured in the /etc/nfsmount.conf file. See nfsmount.conf(5) for details. if it's configured to do so? and how does one do that, since the mount command doesn't seem to refer to that file. so how are these things hooked together? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.

Fedora Basic End User Rollout Support Operation
by Robert E. Martin, VCM Network 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

Members: I have been seriously contemplating developing a business model that is targeting expanding the use of Linux for the everyday desktop use and in small to medium size business. I am not a computer geek or a highly proficient computer specialist, which puts me in the same category of a majority of computer users. I have sold IT and telecommunications hardware for over 15 years. I am now seeking to build a business with a key differentiator for an IT service offering targeting consumers and the SMB market. I believe I can do that with Fedora if I can climb some significant hurdles. I am looking for someone who has climbed those hurdles that I can have a dialogue. The hurdle is that Linux usage is very foreign to the average consumer and SMB. Linux is an entirely different system to navigate and administrate. The layout, description and deployment of applications is in whole different paradigm. Fedora has many advantages, but in its raw state it is not very user friendly. I am looking to talk to someone who knows has to create a user friendly approach to Linux that can be effectively pitched to the consumer and SMB market. My business model will simply be to set-up, configure systems, assist with package application selections and train this market for competitive price. Can someone point me to the right person or people who are doing it or potentially have the know-how? vcm_network_logo_391x285.jpg Robert E.

Openoffice PDF output depends on gnome theme
by Pasan 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

I use the 'darklooks' gtk theme and openoffice.org 3.1.1 comes with Fedora 12 x86_64. The document background is dark when this theme is used as expected and the default text color is white. When I convert a document to PDF using the built-in pdf exporter I expect the PDF to be normal( white background, black text). This works for normal text but all the math equations and some drawings are still in white. (i.e. white in white background) Is this the expected behaviour (the true WYSIWYG even considering the gtk theme) or is this a bug in openoffice?.
