PLAIN missing from Supported SASLMechanisms in LDAP
by Robert Walk
Greetings,
I'm working on getting OpenLDAP on FC3 to authenticate through cyrus-
sasl using the PLAIN mechanism. The problem is that even though I have
cyrus-sasl-plain installed LDAP doesn't list it as an available
authentication mechanism. It also doesn't list LOGIN as an
authentication mechanism. Can anyone point me in the right direction to
get this working?
# ldapsearch -x -H ldap:// -LLL -s "base" -b "" supportedSASLMechanisms
dn:
supportedSASLMechanisms: DIGEST-MD5
supportedSASLMechanisms: NTLM
supportedSASLMechanisms: CRAM-MD5
supportedSASLMechanisms: GSSAPI
# rpm -qa | grep -i sasl
cyrus-sasl-2.1.19-3
cyrus-sasl-devel-2.1.19-3
cyrus-sasl-plain-2.1.19-3
cyrus-sasl-gssapi-2.1.19-3
cyrus-sasl-md5-2.1.19-3
cyrus-sasl-ntlm-2.1.19-3
cyrus-sasl-sql-2.1.19-3
Many thanks,
Rob

fc3 - raid 1 setup problems
by rado
Hi y'all,
First, please tell me that raid 1 works fine w/fc3 w/no problems
if that's so, then could you please direct me to documentation on
installing raid 1 during fc install.
I have no experience w/raid and having trouble finding documentation
that will lead me by the hand and get me thru this.
well, the following might be the only problem I am having:
first I want to see what the drive layout looks like so I select
automatic partition...capture that info...then go back and choose disk
druid. I try to partition the drives w/the same sizes... I think was
only 2 partitions dev/boot and / and of course, swap which I just made
the same swap partition on both drives
I had both drives partitioned exactly the same...time to create dev/md0
(here's where I might have went wrong) I only created 1 device
w/mountpoint of "/". should I also make mountpoints for every
partition...wow as I am typing this, I think I know the answer...of
course I need to! lol I think anyway.
well, I would like some direction and discussion on this if you will
thx
John Rose

Kernel-2.6.10-1.14_FC2 System Freezes
by David Curry
Perhaps a pattern is beginning to emerge on the system freezeups I am
experiencing with the 1.14FC2 kernel.
Again, I was away from the system when it froze up and it was pretty
much idling. Since the chron log does not include an entry for 22:01
hours, I infer that the system locked up sometime between 21:01:00 and
22:01:00 hours. Mail log has no entries between 7:30:41 hours and
reboot at 22:29:13 hours.
The system log is interesting. ALL entries for the 21st hour of the day
fall within a five minute interval. Entries also appear related to
sound and a cd-rom drive. As noted in earlier messages, gnome
applications may very well be involved too. Gnome-cd was in use playing
a music cd right before I stepped away from the system and gnome-cd has
exhibited inconsistent compliance with Gnome CD & DVD Preference settings.
Feb 28 21:34:01 localhost modprobe: FATAL: Error running install command
for sound_slot_1
Feb 28 21:38:06 localhost kernel: hdc: command error: status=0x51 {

Feb 28 21:38:06 localhost kernel: isofs_fill_super: bread failed,

I also saw the mobprobe error re - sound_slot_1 in the system log around
the time of the last system freeze.
It seems to me that there is a bug here somewhere, but in which package
or packages?
Thoughts anyone.

You can see a list of packages:
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/i386/os/Fedora
/RPMS/
although that won't tell you what is on which CD. A minimal install
doesn't require all the CDs but you're probably better off just biting
the bullet and getting them all.

Information on the various mailing lists is here:
http://fedora.redhat.com/participate/communicate/
Pick a mailing list from that page and you'll get, among other things, a
link to the list archives. This does seem like the right one for
questions of this sort.

There are a few sources of documentation. I'd start with the release
notes:
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc3/x86/
The unofficial Fedora FAQ is also a useful site:
http://www.fedorafaq.org/
and of course, a LOT of questions get answered on this list so the
archives are a good source for problem resolution:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/
If you don't find answers in any of those locations (or a Google
search), post specific questions here and you'll get either an answer or
a pointer to an answer. I hope that helps and welcome to the world of
Fedora Core.

Parportscanner and Sane.
by Philip Moller
Hi !
I have major problems installing my scanner with sane.
I have downloaded the latest tarball "sane-backends-1.0.15.tar.gz" at
ftp://ftp.sane-project.org/pub/sane/sane-backends-1.0.15/,
decompressed the tarball (tar -xvzf sane-backends-1.0.15.tar.gz) and I
compiled and installed (./configure, make, make install)
sane-backends-1.0.15.
My parallelportscanner is old, but it works fine i Windows98 with
TWAIN, so there is no problem with the scanner's functionality and the
connection with the computer.
My printer Canon S750, that is connected at the same parallelport as the
scanner, is working fine in Linux.
My printer S750 is connected to the scanner and the scanner is
connected to the parallelport in the computer.
The PRINTER works fine in Linux and in Windows98 the scanner+printer
works fine too.
The only problem is the scanner, that wont work at all for me in Linux ?
My computer data :
i686 Pentium III (Coppermine), RAM 128MB, HDD 9GB.
Linux version: Fedora Core 3 (2.6.10-1.766_FC3) (gcc version 3.4.2
20041017 (Red Hat 3.4.2-6.fc3))
My scanner data :
Mustek Plug&Scan 600 III EP Plus
300 DPI, CCD(101x/0x), EPP, ASICID:1013/1015, CCDTYPE: 00/01
I have printed out and read the documentation on
http://penguin-breeder.org/sane/mustek_pp/
and followed the instruction, step by step.
When I print "sane-find-scanner -p" in the console, I get this:
[root] # sane-find-scanner -p
found possible Mustek parallel port scanner at "parport0"
So, "sane-find-scanner" detects my scanner...
But when I print "SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK_PP=1 scanimage -L", I get this:
[root] # SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK_PP=1 scanimage -L
[sanei_debug] Setting debug level of mustek_pp to 1.
I am waiting !!!
Here it freezes, nothing happends ....
I have enabled the mustek_pp backend in my dll.conf, with removal of the
# sign in front of it.
I have also adjusted the mustek_pp.conf file to reflect my hardware
setup (scanner mustek-ccd300 * ccd300).
So my config files are ok.
I don't have a second installation of sane (with its own config files),
so that isn't the problem.
Please, I could use some expert advice...
What can I do, to get the scanner working with Sane ?
Experts ! please help me ...
Sincerely,
Philip Moller

RH9 laptop 2.4->2.6: it's up! (no mouse though)
by Douglas Frank
Well wasn't that easy :~)
OK my RH9 laptop is booting 2.6.10, and I'm on to the next problem.
During boot, a bunch of USB-related error messages scrolled by. I can't
find them now anywhere in /var/log, but the impression I retain was that
USB support was broken in the new kernel.
Now that it's up, my PS/2 mouse isn't working (although the touchpad
works). I'm wondering if I need ISA support for this; I'd disabled
that.
My .config file is attached.
thanks!

mtink Epson status monitor for FC3
by Philippe
Hi,
I tried with many problem to make work mtink and mtinkd RPM, in order to
manage my Epson Style 480 on FC3. I was using mtink-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm on
FC2 with no problem.
I tried this one, and mtink-1.0.7.1 and mtink-1.0.8 and still cannot
communicate with the printer.
My question is : do I have another choice to manage my Epson printer
than using mtink. I would like to change the cartridge.
If anybody got some ideas, or is using (managing) successpully his Epson
ink-jet printer on FC3, please help ;-)
Moreover, I have an inkjet HP printer, but never tried to install it on
Fedora. Is this more simple to access a panel control for HP than
Epson ?
Thanks,
Philippe
