Strange sendmail behaviour
by Stephen Davies 28 Dec '15

28 Dec '15

I am trying to change my sendmail configuration to deliver all "user unknown" emails to a specific account (baduser). I added the DL definition to sendmail.mc and generated test.cf. Then I tested this new config using: echo who | sendmail -v -Ctest.cf noone and the email was correctly delivered to the defined account. I then renamed test.cf to sendmail.cf (in /etc/mail) and retested with: echo what | sendmail -Csendmail.cf noone and again the email was delivered to the baduser account. Happy with this, I then restarted sendmail (via systemctl) and sent yet another email to an invalid account. Instead of the email being delivered to baduser, I received a 550 5.1.1 user unknown reject email. What have I missed here.

Windows 7 to Windows 10 in a KVM success!
by Tom Horsley 28 Dec '15

28 Dec '15

I've been running a Windows 7 KVM virtual machine for a while with a Fedora 22 host, and I found lots of conflicting info on the web about the possibility of installing the Windows 10 upgrade in a KVM. After taking great care to preserve the original Windows 7 image file, I gave the upgrade a whirl and it seems to have worked OK for me. Full story at: http://tomhorsley.com/misc/windows10-kvm.html Now it won't constantly badger me about upgrading :-).

Hi My system is supposed to be in English, but all the commands at the console level give feedback in Spanish. How can I troubleshoot this?

An Exercise: Manually creating a new boot disk from an existing one
by Philip Rhoades 27 Dec '15

27 Dec '15

People, I am interested to see if it is possible to boot on an existing disk - say /dev/sda ("A") - and then manually create everything required on a second disk - /dev/sdb ("B") eg: - create the partition table and partitions on B - dd the existing boot track(s) from A to a file and then dd that to B - or create it from scratch somehow? - rsync the the first level directories into the appropriate places on the new drive and partitions (maybe by temporarily booting on a Live USB so we are not copying from a running system?) If this is possible, what else would need to be done on B so that when drive A is removed, the remaining B (the new "A") drive will be able to boot and run normally? Thanks!

no grub after installing fedora23
by Walter Cazzola 26 Dec '15

26 Dec '15

Dear Fedora Experts, I' ve recently bought a new Dell Precision m6800 and today I was trying to install Fedora 23 in dual boot with windows 7 (this was the OS originally on the machine). I' ve run the installer from the live CD and after a couple of wrong attempts I successfully finished the installation process without errors or at least apparently without errors. I' ve restarted the machine I got into the following error message: *file "/boot/grub2/i386-pc/normal.mod" NOT FOUND grub rescue>* neither windows nor fedora boot. Booting again from the live cd I got that ever the partition are there: Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sda1 63 80324 80262 39.2M de Dell Utility /dev/sda2 * 81920 25710591 25628672 12.2G 27 Hidden NTFS WinRE /dev/sda3 25710592 201408511 175697920 83.8G 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT /dev/sda4 201408512 1953523711 1752115200 835.5G 5 Extended /dev/sda5 201410560 202776575 1366016 667M 83 Linux /dev/sda6 202778624 307636223 104857600 50G 83 Linux /dev/sda7 307638272 341192703 33554432 16G 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda8 341194752 351680511 10485760 5G 83 Linux /dev/sda9 351682560 360071167 8388608 4G 83 Linux /dev/sda10 360073216 368461823 8388608 4G 83 Linux /dev/sda11 368463872 371609599 3145728 1.5G 6 FAT16 /dev/sda12 371611648 1953523711 1581912064 754.3G 83 Linux where sda1-3 are the original windows partitions, sda5 is /boot and sda6 is / I' ve mounted the /boot partition and inside grub2 there is not i386-pc dir nor the normal.mod file. I' ve tried to manually copy /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod into /boot/grub2 but the only difference I got is that the boot is stucked on grub> So what I have to do to fix the situation and be able to run both windows and linux? thank you in advance for your help.

recent apache timeout changes?
by Tom Horsley 26 Dec '15

26 Dec '15

Anyone know if the default values for timing out recently changed in some httpd update on fedora? I used to be able to "stream" recordings to MX Player on my tablet by just providing the video files as http links. Sometime in the last few weeks though, MX Player started cutting off the recording after about 10 minutes (as though it believed it hit the end). I have just found every apache directive with timeout and keep alive in the name and changed them all to huge values, and MX Player is no longer having a problem, so one of them must have changed default values. Just wondering if anyone knows which one (out of nothing more than idle curiosity).
