sendmail dropping outgoing email on the floor
by Carlos Puchol 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

hi, i filed bug 137216 for a problem that seems pretty serious to me. sendmail drops outgoing email with Oct 25 14:25:40 rome sendmail[9106]: NOQUEUE: SYSERR(cpg): can not chdir(/var/spool/clientmqueue/): Permission denied i gave it high priority because it loses data. details at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=137216 however, i don't see anyone else having an issue on this. the only thing different than standard config is something that most people downloading email will have to do and that is: define(`SMART_HOST',`smtp.comcast.net') MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(myowndomain.com)dnl MASQUERADE_AS(myowndomain.com)dnl noone running into this? -c

Gnome and geometry flags FC3 changes from FC2
by Tom Mitchell 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

I have a launcher to launch gnome-terminal with a specific geometry on FC2 that works thus: gnome-terminal -geometry=80x34 Moving things to FC3rc3 the geometry flag seems to be changed to the double dash style -- flag thus: gnome-terminal --geometry=80x34 Did I miss something? Is this only gnome-terminal? This could be a moderately large change if it is more than gnome-terminal? Off to review release notes I guess. It is consistent with lots of things so I am not avert to the change just surprised or I have been sleeping... Later, tom -- T o m M i t c h e l l May your cup runneth over with goodness and mercy and may your buffers never overflow.

handy iso upgrade rsync script
by Salane KIng 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

rsync usually will speed up the upgrading of iso files from one to another. Since the test iso does'nt change their name here is a small script to help the community. #!/bin/sh rsync -av --progress --partial --stats sunsite.mff.cuni.cz::ftp/OS/Linux/Dist/Fedora.RC/3/i386/iso/FC3-i386-disc* /directory of isos the rsync line here is smart wrapped and should be on one line in your command or bash script file. here is my output of this command which is saved as the file "iso" sh iso SunSITE.MFF.CUni.CZ 2TB archive receiving file list ... 4 files to consider FC3-i386-disc1.iso 647069696 100% 628.29kB/s 0:16:45 (1, 25.0% of 4) FC3-i386-disc2.iso 668514304 100% 1.25MB/s 0:08:31 (2, 50.0% of 4) FC3-i386-disc3.iso 667525120 100% 1016.03kB/s 0:10:41 (3, 75.0% of 4) FC3-i386-disc4.iso 398049280 100% 884.90kB/s 0:07:19 (4, 100.0% of 4) Number of files: 4 Number of files transferred: 4 Total file size: 2381158400 bytes Total transferred file size: 2381158400 bytes Literal data: 371155464 bytes Matched data: 2010002936 bytes File list size: 101 Total bytes sent: 583981 Total bytes received: 371529134 sent 583981 bytes received 371529134 bytes 136130.64 bytes/sec total size is 2381158400 speedup is 6.40

FC3T2 EggCups Crashing
by Will H. Backman 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

After updating today, I keep getting a popup that egg-cups has crashed (Restart?) It seems to be when I stick a CD in with a windows autorun. I'll have to dig more. Anyone else seeing this? -- Will Backman Coastal Enterprises, Inc. - A computer is a device used to convert data into error messages.

Urgent - Potential security hole.
by Paul F. Johnson 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Hi, I think I've found a hole! I logged into this box from work yesterday via ssh, compiled Mono and some other bits then decided to try if I could run a C# app from this machine and view it at work. I don't have X forwarding enabled and can see this by trying to run Firefox on this machine when logged into my sons box - firefox fails to run. The C# application ran and I could use it at work. I'm using the 643 kernel with everything updated. I'm not sure if this is a mono thing or X forwarding being broken. I'm using selinux targetted. This could be a serious problem and I want to be sure before putting it into bugzilla as a blocker. TTFN Paul -- "Trust me, I know what I'm doing" - Det. Sledgehammer

NTFS filesystem...
by John Burton 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

Greetings once again... Before I subscribed to this list, I sent a message which is currently being held by the moderators (no problem). Here is my porblem.... I have a dual boot laptop, Windows XP on the first partition (/dev/hda1) and FC3-RC1 (updated via yum on 10/28 to kernel 2.6.9-1.643). /dev/hda1 is formatted NTFS. Other versions of Linux including FC2 have allowed me access to NTFS filesystems. But now I get > [root@traveler john]# mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/C > mount: fs type ntfs not supported by kernel Which is not what I need. Unfortunately since there isn't a kernel-source rpm available, I can't easily compile a ntfs module. Being able to read the ntfs partition is critical, being able to write to it isn't. Since the actual release of FC3 is near, are there any plans to include ntfs support in the released version? John

Issue in glibc in FC3T3 ?
by Kim Lux 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

I've got an application semi randomly crashing in FC3T3. A backtrace in gdb always shows the application crashing in the same place: 0x007f74dc in memcpy () from /lib/tls/libc.so.6 Are there any known issues in glibc ? I'm running glibc-2.3.3-73, according to rpm -q. It only happens under a heavy usage. Thanks. -- Kim Lux (Mr.) <lux(a)diesel-research.com>

bugzilla quit working ????
by Kim Lux 01 Nov '04

01 Nov '04

I've entered two bugs and I'm trying to enter the 3rd. I'm using the wizard. I get everything filled out and then press "Open Bugzilla Entry Form". The resulting page comes up blank. The address on it is: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/easy_enter_bug.cgi All my fields are completed with what appears to be valid data. Did bugzilla quit or am I doing something wrong ?
