VirtualBox 5.0.10 network problem
by Patrick O'Callaghan 17 Dec '15

17 Dec '15

I have the Oracle version of VBox (VirtualBox-5.0- 5.0.10_104061_fedora22-1.x86_64) and it usually doesn't give any issues, but now (under F23) my Windows 7 guest has no network access. I have the appropriate VBox extension installed, and have shutdown and restarted the guest VM, but to no avail. My guest network is Bridged on virbr0. Any hints would be appreciated. poc

Create VM from other than DVD -
by Bob Goodwin 17 Dec '15

17 Dec '15

Apparently I can't make google understand what I want. How do I tell virtual box to create a new VM from a file on this computer or NFS server instead of looking for sd0? I would like to avoid going through the burning of another DVD ... Bob -- Bob Goodwin - Zuni, Virginia, USA http://www.qrz.com/db/W2BOD box10 FEDORA-23/64bit LINUX XFCE POP3

F23 weird auth problems
by Shawn Badger 17 Dec '15

17 Dec '15

I just updated my work desktop to F23 from F22. Everything looked good but then I realized some of the shares are not mapping. They are CIFS shares and all common to a single EMC filer. The weird part is that I have a share mounted on a different EMC filer that is working fine from my fstab file. If I try to mount the same share from Thunar file manager it works just fine but from the command line I get: [root@1GYX8Y1L ####]# mount /home/user/shares/t Retrying with upper case share name mount error(13): Permission denied Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) [root@1GYX8Y1L ####r]# mount --verbose -t cifs -o username=#####,password=#########,domain=######,file_mode=0644,dir_mode=0755,uid=1000,gid=1000 //#####/apps1/ /home/######/shares/w mount.cifs kernel mount options: ip=10.1.23.15,unc=\\######\apps1,file_mode=0644,dir_mode=0755,uid=1000,gid=1000,user=######,,domain=#####,pass=******** mount error(13): Permission denied Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) I looked at it with wireshark and I am passing the same username to the systems but there is way more data being sent betrween the system using Thunar. On a side not and not sure it is related but Lotus Notes is also showing some weird issues (outside the normal ones) where I can get into my mail but when I try to send I get a "You are not authorized to perform that operation" and then the path to my mailbox on the server. Possibly unrelated to the CIFS issue butn ot really sure. Has anyone else seen this or know a change that may have affected it? I have already downgrade the cifs-utils package back to F22 with change.

Device Notifier Problem
by tJohn Rosich 16 Dec '15

This was inadverently sent to the wrong e-mail address. Sorry. I tried to mount cds and usb sticks (both under gui and cli) I get a message to the effect that the device wasn't available. How do I correct this? The system runs under 86_64 which has been fully updated. e TIA John -

using an OS tree to do remote install fails
by dcw 16 Dec '15

16 Dec '15

I have been using the following with no problems: url --url http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/releases/22/Everything/i386/os/ However, One computer I need to upgrade is in another city and in an area that has power outages on occasion but It has battery backup. During a netinstall, if the power goes out while downloading the packages -- that would require me to go to the location. So I am trying to use a local OS tree for the install. This will reduce the risk from power outage. The documentation says the following: |harddrive| Install from a tree or full installation ISO image on a local hard drive. The tree or ISO image must be on a file system which is mountable in the installation environment. Supported file systems are |ext2|, |ext3|, |ext4|, |vfat|, or |xfs|. |install| |harddrive --partition= | --biospart= [--dir=]| |--partition=| Partition to install from (such as |sdb2|). |--biospart=| BIOS partition to install from (such as |82p2|). |--dir=| Directory containing the installation tree or ISO image. I only have one drive in the computer: /dev/sda. When I use: |harddrive --partition=/dev/sda2 --dir=/path/os| The target mount points are: sda1 is mounted as / sda2 is mounted as /home The errors are that the drive is not found for install and os tree also fails. I also tried: |harddrive --partition=sda2 --dir=/path/os| I have not found any other info. Is there documentation elsewhere that has more details on the use of an OS tree? Thanks for your help, David

USB curosity
by Geoffrey Leach 16 Dec '15

16 Dec '15

I have a LaserJet 1300 printer that connects via a Belkin parallel port-to-USB connector. When I send a document to the printer, half the time it prints without hesitation; other times it stalls until I disconnect and re-connect the USB cable. When I do that, here's what dmesg reports: [80924.737154] usb 4-1.1: USB disconnect, device number 4 [80924.737587] usblp0: removed [80926.381095] usb 4-1.1: new full-speed USB device number 5 using ehci-pci [80926.472738] usb 4-1.1: New USB device found, idVendor=050d, idProduct=0002 [80926.472749] usb 4-1.1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [80926.472755] usb 4-1.1: Product: IEEE-1284 Controller [80926.472759] usb 4-1.1: Manufacturer: Belk USB Printing Support [80926.497804] usblp 4-1.1:1.0: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 5 if 0 alt 1 proto 2 vid 0x050D pid 0x0002 CUPS discovers the printer without any problems. However, when I send the test document from CUPS, no amount of fiddling with the USB cable will cause it to print. Any insights will be greatly appreciated. Firefox 23; kernel 4.2.6-301.fc23.x86_64 #1 SMP, everything up to date.
