VPN connection (XAUTH/IKEv1) does not work
by Bogdan Vatulya
Good day. I have an issue that spans both, Fedora 31 and Fedora 32. I have installed NetworkManager-libreswan-gnome package to get IPsec XAUTH working (with PSK).
When I connect, I see no errors and NetworkManager applet reports that connection is established. Yet I have no internet connection after VPN connection is allegedly established and I cannot access any resources on the network behind gateway. I have an Android 9 phone with XAUTH VPN and the same settings I have on my Fedora workstation and I have an internet and I can access resources behind the gateway.
What should I do to get VPN working?
The journal does not report any issues:

Installing another DE.
by Christopher Marlow
When installing another DE on top of Fedora Workstation I am getting an
error and I don't know how to fix it.
I am using Fedora workstation which game with Gnome, but I installed
XFCE on top of it because I don't use gnome for anything.
I am trying to install Mate and I am getting these errors and don't
know what its wanting.. How do I fix this?
Problem: problem with installed package fedora-release-workstation-31-
2.noarch

bootable live system ??
by bruce
Hi.
Looking at a process for digitalocean to repartition a VM. The docs I'm
looking at discuss the process for debian.
Anyone have steps/docs for doing this with centos/fedora?
In particular, the docs I'm looking at require the
grml-rescueboot, and the grml.iso which in the site/url are debian related.
Are there similar centos/fed items??
The url I'm looking at:
https://www.ismay.ca/2015/10/repartition-a-debian-digital-ocean-droplet/
thanks for any help!
package, then download the grml iso to /boot/grml/ with wget:

/usr/ permissions ??
by David
I logged in as root just for the fun of it
to mess around with my permission settings in
the /usr/ directory
not having any idea what the heck I was doing.
I am the only user of the computer ( so I am the admin ).
But now, I get a sudo error message when logged in
the normal way as admin or sole user.
* sudo: /usr/bin/sudo must be owned by uid 0 and have the setuid bit
set*
What do I need to do to fix that ?

problem setting the PATH variable.
by Angelo Moreschini
hi
I have a strange problem ...
On my computer "maven" (an IDE for developent in java language) is
installed in the directory: "/ opt / netbeans / java / maven / bin / mvn".
And I can run it (maven) by giving its full path from the command line.
I wanted to modify the PATH variable to use the simple name of the program
"mvn".
I did it and actually I get this output for the command :
-------
angelo_dev @ pluto: echo $ PATH:
/ Usr / share / Modules / bin: / usr / local / bin: / usr / local / sbin: /
usr / bin: / usr / sbin: / opt / netbeans / java / maven / bin / mvn.
-------
However when I use of the mvn command (without specifying its complete
value) it does not work,
I get this output;
-------
angelo_dev @ pluto: ~ $ mvn
bash: mvn: command not found ...
Install package 'maven' to provide command 'mvn'? [N / y]
--------
I cannot understand...
Can anyone help me understand this problem
Thanks Angelo.

OT: delaying postfix until/unless VPN is up/connected
by Ranjan Maitra
Dear friends,
I am using postfix to deliver my work mail from a remote location. This works fine when I am on VPN (the postfix traffic goes through VPN then). However, it gets identified as spam when VPN is not up. Since most people do not routinely check their spam folders especially when the e-mail is not expected from a recipient, this presents a problem.
So, I am wondering if I could please set up my services for postfix to be delayed unless/until VPN is up and running. If so, how do I go about doing this?
I am running a fully updated F31 but this is likely really a OT question.
Many thanks and best wishes,
Ranjan
