installer and stage2.img?
by Louis Garcia
Is their any reason the installer is split into stage1 and stage2? It
would mean quicker installs over the wire. Their is certainly enough
room on boot.iso. This will help the ftp and http installs and also nfs
since their is no time spent downloading stage2.

nss_ldap using sasl with gssapi. Kerberos credentials cache problem
by Howard Wilkinson
I have been installing nss_Ldap for sasl connections to a Windows 2003
R2 infrastructure and run into some problems. It turns out that the
package distributed with FC5 and in development have an incorrect option
set with the configuration for the configuration file feature
krb5_ccname to work.
The configure line currently uses --enable-configurable-krb5-ccname
which does not do anything useful. It should either read
--enable-configurable-krb5-ccname-env or
--enable-configurable-krb5-ccname-gssapi to make this work. I have
chosen the second as the first does not confer any advantage in allowing
the environment to override in the current implementation.
Without this setting then the calling environment must have a credential
cache set up for the code to work - the behaviour of both the nscd and
the general calling environment give local errors when there is not
credentials cache defined.

post update label checking script
by Steve G
Hi,
I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm making a test script available to
help people testing fedora rawhide updates. What this script does is look at the
yum logs to see if you've updated the system today. (Optionally, you can pass a
date to the script based on your locale, for example "Sep 03" would be valid in
mine.) If updates are found in the logs, it makes a list of rpms and sends that
to fixfiles to see if the update has caused any files to be mislabeled. This can
happen when post install scriptlets do the wrong thing. This script should not
repair anything since its just a test. You can find it here:
http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/files/testing/selinux-check-new-rpms
Typically, you would run the script after doing "yum update" on a rawhide
machine. There were several bug fixes needed in policycoreutils to make the
script work and hopefully they will be backported to FC5 sometime soon.
Please report any problems you find against the package that owns the files being
reported. For example, when I run the script after today's rawhide update, I get
this:
/etc/named.conf
/etc/rndc.conf
/etc/rndc.key
/etc/named.caching-nameserver.conf
/etc/named.conf
/etc/named.rfc1912.zones
/var/named/named.ca
To see the package:
[root~]# rpm -qf /etc/named.conf
caching-nameserver
This would indicate that named.conf probably has post scriptlets that are
processing files in a selinux unfriendly way.
Feedback and updates are welcome.
-Steve

Fwd: Mission Control
by Arthur Pemberton
Hi guys,
I was just taking a look at an article I came across on /. about Ark
Linux, they seem to have an app which seems like a good idea called
"Mission Control".
http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,2005668,00.asp
What do you guys think about it, in reference to inclusion of someting
similiar into Fedora?
Peace
Arthur
