having trouble with web site and resolving a host
by Scott Berry
Hello there,
I finally got the eDns client to work properly. However, I have a few other questions. I want pilotalk.com to be accessible on ports 21, 22, 80, 8080. I have set "system-config-securitylevel" to allow these ports to be open. But it seems as though my issue is a resolving issue. Do I need to change resolv.conf for this to make the server see that it is pilotalk? Or what do people think needs to happen next?

back to default for the K menu entries
by Francois
Hi,
I would like to know if there is a command, to get all entries we can have
as default in the K Menu without the help of K Menu Edit.
KMenuEdit is great, but I have to know which entries to add to each sub
menu.
For example, for the sub menu System, I don't have any entry. Same for
Utilities, etc...
I have this problem since FC4 on my system, and as I do an upgrade to update
the Fedora version I run, my K Menu is very "poor" ;-)
thank you. Francois

selinux eradicator?
by Tom Horsley
I'm never gonna use selinx, yet every new batch of updates
seems to have yet another new version of a slew of
selinux packages to download and install, with half of
them wasting time doing find commands to do god knows
what to every file on my system :-).
Out of idle curiosity, I asked yum what would happen
if I tried to remove every rpm that has selinux in
its description.
The result was that just about (maybe not even about)
every single rpm on my system would be removed for
dependencies.
Is there any set of selinux stuff I can actually remove?
Anyone working on a alternate repo of bizzaro-selinux
packages that will satisfy the dependencies while only
downloading a few hundred bytes and executing no complicated
side effects when installed?
Or maybe a selinux free fedora spin?
Maybe on the more realistic side: How about a
/etc/sysconfig/selinux variable I could set that
would inform the rpms I'm never ever gonna enable
selinux, and they can just skip all the time wasting
nonsense they normally do when installed?

State of EPEL
by Rainer Traut
Hi,
what's the state of EPEL?
Is it already open?
I am asking because for example the epel-release.rpm seems not to work
and I cannot find a user mailing list.
THx

Which md5.h? Which libraries?
by Robert Cahn
I find the following files on my F7 system:
/usr/include/pi-md5.h
/usr/include/neon/ne_md5.h
/usr/include/c++/4.1.2/gnu/javax/crypto/jce/mac/HMacMD5Spi.h
/usr/include/c++/4.1.2/gnu/java/security/hash/MD5.h
/usr/include/openssl/md5.h
/usr/include/pppd/md5.h
/usr/include/sasl/md5.h
/usr/include/php/ext/standard/md5.h
I am writing a small GTK+ program. I need to add an MD5 computation. My
question is,
"Which MD5 include file goes with which library?" There are too many
libraries to plow through
one directory at a time.
Best regards,
/Bob Cahn

F7 automount vfat usb read-only?
by William Murray
Hello guys,
If I mount a usb pen or camera in my F7 laptop HAL mounts it
r/o for me, r/w for root. I would like to revert to r/w for me.
I have seen some discussion of removing
/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/99-redhat-storage-policy-fixed-drives.fdi.
for a similar problem, but that does not seem to help me.
Can anyone suggest a fix please?
Thanks,
Bill

Printer Comm Problem
by Mike McCarty
Today, I find that I have a printer comm problem which I haven't
had before. I use an HP DeskJet 870Cse, and have for more than
a year, so far without significant problem. Today, I replaced
the black cartride, which I wouldn't think would cause any problems.
Now, at the end of each print job, the printer notes that it has
lost comm with the computer, and starts flashing the yellow light.
Turning off and back on the printer fixes all up, but I cannot
start another job until I do this, or I get binary dump on the
printer.
I use HPIJS with CUPS and FEDORA CORE 2. What steps may I take to
find out what has gone wrong with my setup?

Re: Selinux so badly corrupted machine can't start

Yes ... it relabels. I have done so many times ... especially during
quick policy churns in Rawhide test releases.
I'm sorry that my response trying to help was unhelpful. Please ignore
me in the future rather than giving a rude response. However, it would
be more preferable to give a thoughtful response that tries to bridge
the difficult communication gap that arises from having discussions
with limited context.
I have never had any problems with SELinux that have prevented
booting. I also have never had any problems with SELinux
autorelabelling with enforcing enabled.
In my reading of this mailing list since SELinux was introduced, I
have found that people having trouble with SELinux mainly fall into
two categories. Either they are noobs blindly trying to run a
precompiled app that they unpacked from a tarball or they are
old-school *nix hackers who are blindly trying to run an app that they
built from a tarball or have made some customization to make their
system resemble the way "things used to be done in the olden-days".
What I was thinking in my response but perhaps not suggesting
explicitly was either:
1) touching the .autolabel file after you booted with enforcing off
and rebooting with enforcing off to avoid the need for a RescueCD
or
2) just putting *both* parameters that Daniel told you about
(enforcing=0 and autorelabel=1) in the grub entry at boot time to
avoid the need for a RescueCD.
Because while Tim thinks that booting from a RescueCD might have other
advantages, I would think that it might have many hidden disadvantages
from a SELinux point of view that seem to always arise when you are
trying to do things outside the scope of SELinux with an older kernel
on a sub-directory-mounted or chrooted root filesystem. This is likely
where the *nix gurus get tripped up with SELinux as they instantly
turn to their old toolbag when things break ... and their old tools
stomp all over SELinux in knowing nothing of it.

Re: rpm: error while loading shared libraries: libelf.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
by Excalibur Xcalibur
Thanks Tony for the reply. But unfortunately it actually gave me a writing
error. Finally I did the following:
rpm2cpio elfutils-libelf-0.127-1.fc7.i386.rpm | cpio -idm '*.*'
Then I got a ./usr directory w/ the missing files. Then did a
sudo mv ./usr/lib/* /usr/lib
and it worked. Many thanks for all those who replied.
