Delay in the activation of the routes at startup
by webmyster
Hi,
I have a fedora 10 installed on a computer. I noticed a delay in the
activation of the routes during the startup process through network
startup script.
Actually, I run a "ping -c 50 xxx.yyy.zzz.ttt > /var/log/startup.ping"
(while xxx.yyy.zzz.ttt is a valid computer IP adress) just after the
automatic startup execution of the script /etc/rc.d/init/network.
The ping first start by answer several "Destination Host Unreachable".
Then after about 25 fail, the ping gets reply from the host.
A while the "route -n > /var/log/startup.route" command before the
startup ping shows that whole routes are valid (ie : no difference after
and before the pings).
Do you have an idea of the reason of this delay in the activation of the
routes ?
Regards,
Damien Touraine

Oki Paul, just to get it, i tried again the Roadwarrior-Configuration from Openswans
Homepage.
I activated the include from ipsec.conf, as i inserted a client.conf on the client side
and a server.conf on the server-side :)
Service ipsec starts. Then, trying to connect using ipsec auto --up road fails. In the
logs, i see the following:
UNKNOWN: Feb 1 14:12:10 server pluto[22104]: "road"[21] 192.168.3.116 #21: no RSA
public key known for '@mydomain.net'
and
Peer road[456] caused 16 lines of output.
connected from:192.168.3.116
Keyed: 0 successes 1 failures (max retries: 0)
IPsec SAs: 0
What do those messages mean?
from server and client, i just copied the output from the rightsigkey or leftsigkey
(which are on the machine both the same?) using ipsec showhostkey --left/right into the
according configs. Or do i have to copy the whole bunch of lines of the key? My machines
are FQDN via DNS, but not on local name resolution. So asking my server via dns brings
server(a)mydomain.net, the entry in the resolv.conf is without the domain-part.
Thanks for your help.

Open a terminal
edit the file /etc/pam.d/gdm
Comment out the fourth line so it reads:
#auth required pam_suceed_if.so user != root quiet
Save, exit.
Switch user to root, or login as root as desired, not as circumscribed
by others who wish to tell you how to use your own computer.
Of course, use are your own risk: it is *your* computer.

Preupgrade failure
by Timothy Murphy
I've been trying to upgrade a Thinkpad T23 (ie very ancient) laptop
from Fedora-9 to Fedora-10 by running preupgrade.
The first stage - downloading the RPMs, etc - works fine,
and when I re-boot the install.img gets downloaded OK.
But then I get an error message suggesting that I "Try re-load".
I've repeated the process 3 or 4 times without success.
Fortunately, the old Fedora-9 system still seems to work fine.
I vaguely recall reading about some magic formula
that I can add to the Fedora-10 install entry in grub.conf ,
but have not been able to find this with google.

konqueror usb media:/sdc1/ but mounted on /media/sdc1
by Jackson Byers
an external usb disk is mounted as
/dev/sdc1 on /media/disk-1 type reiserfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,sync)
which mount occurs on double clicking of the usb icon on the desktop
but the konqueror window which also pops up
shows in its location bar
media:/sdc1/
here there is
no leading / on media
no /disk-1 following media
and no /dev leading the /sdc1
is there documentation explaining these differences?
is this media:/sdc1 ever used by users as an alternative location
syntax?
thanks for any help
this is on FC5

Where are the latest updates??
by Heiko Adams
Hello,
on 29th January the fedora-package-announce list has announced several
package-updates for fedora 10.
But since today (31th January) yum didn't find any of these updates in
the updates repository. Normally all announced updates are at least on
the next day available.

rsync using sudo.
by Gary Artim
/usr/bin/rsync --stats -ae "ssh" --rsync-path="sudo /usr/bin/rsync"
/my rsync@host1:/backup/my
I'm running the above command as user rsync (on both the local and
remote system). Both rsync
users are in /etc/sudoers and permitted to run the command as root
/usr/bin/rsync and I have
ssh-kegen stuff setup correctly. tested aka: ssh host1 who (no passwd
asked for)
The problem: the local files get permission denied on root owned files
subdirs. If I add
sudo /usr/bin/rsync --stats -ae "ssh" --rsync-path="sudo
/usr/bin/rsync" /my rsync@host1:/backup/my
I get prompted for a ssh passwd. Has anyone solved or done this?
Any help would be great!

status of Python / modeset for intel chipsets?
by Michael Klinosky
Hello.
Btw - yes, this is a retry. I think that the subject of the first try
was off a bit.
I'm trying to install F10 on a mb that uses the intel 845GV chipset. I
found, on
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/f10/en_US/What_is_New_for_Ins...
- in section 2.6.2 Python - that kernel modesetting drivers for intel
are in the works. I tried 'nomodeset' - didn't help. (Perhaps I need
another option, along with nomodeset?)
Is there some website that gives the status of this work? Or, is there
someone here that knows?
Or, where would I look for drivers? On the repository sites, I see lots
of 'python' files (in the updates directory) - I have no clue what to use.
Btw - yes, I tried the google linux search. No hits that help me.
