[FC8] ssh and CAC card???
by Todd Denniston 17 Sep '24

17 Sep '24

From what I understood, the change to openssh listed in: rpm -q --changelog openssh |less as: "* Wed Jun 20 2007 Tomas Mraz <tmraz(a)redhat.com> - 4.5p1-7 - experimental NSS keys support - correctly setup context when empty level requested (#234951) " was supposed to allow the Common Access Card (CAC) to work with the shipped Fedora 8 ssh. As per NSS usual, everything is undocumented, i.e., `ssh-add --help` does not help at all, and `man ssh-add` points to `ssh-add -s reader` # ssh-add -s 0 Enter passphrase for smartcard: SSH_AGENT_FAILURE Could not add card: 0 # ssh-add -s 1 Enter passphrase for smartcard: SSH_AGENT_FAILURE Could not add card: 1 So does anyone know how to use the possible functionality, or are we reduced to reading the source? -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter

Apache fails to resume after hibernation
by Patrick O'Callaghan 07 Sep '24

07 Sep '24

I've noticed recently that Apache often (or perhaps always) doesn't respond after a system hibernate/resume cycle. After restarting it ('apachectl restart') all is well. I could script an automatic restart after resuming, but I wondered if this is a well-known problem with a simpler solution. poc

This list's search engine not working?
by HaJo Schatz 22 May '24

22 May '24

Ever since I stumbled across this list, I seem to have major difficulties searching the archives. Say I want to see my posts to the list (they all have the same footer as below), I believe I could go to http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/ and enter "HaJo" as a search string. Searching in all sections, I get 0 results. Does the search engine ignore me by some reason? BTW -- I've been posting since about June, and when showing the archives sorted by author, I do find my posts. OK, not the most helpful to search for my own posts, but I do have the same issue when searching for given topics. Any other search engine out there indexing this list reliably? Google shows 0 hits on a "site:www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/" search... -- HaJo Schatz <hajo(a)hajo.net> http://www.HaJo.Net PGP-Key: http://www.hajo.net/hajonet/keys/pgpkey_hajo.txt

Hi Michael, --- Michael Folin <michael.folin(a)donator.se> wrote: > how do I install Tomcat i fedora? > can't find it during the installation > If you mean during the installation of Fedora Core itself, then I don't think Tomcat is provided with Fedora Core (please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong). This means you will probably need to download Apache Jakarta Tomcat (either binaries, or the source which you'll need to build) and install it. Hope this helps.

Virtualbox vs VMware for Fedora?
by Sbob 08 Feb '24

08 Feb '24

All; I am running Fedora39, I have run VMware workstation for years, and I have on and off had issues since VMware does not officially support Fedora, normally I run a patch after each kernel update and it mostly just works. I am also running the osx unlocker so I can run mac VM's I recently tried virtualbox on a spare laptop, havent looked at virtualbox in years, and I was impressed, a few questions for the community: - can I run the osx unlocker with virtualbox? - does virtualbox have the same issues where it needs a patch after each kernel and sometimes just breaks with a new kernel , even with the patch? Thanks in advance

rfkill??
by Beartooth 04 Jan '24

04 Jan '24

Updating F39 just now on a laptop, I got a request for root to authorize rfkill. I had just also updated F39 on a PC, with no such request. (Both machines are connected to a KVM switch and a router by cables, not wireless.) I didn't authorize it, and shut the laptop down. Is there something I should do next?? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Linux Power User I have precious (very precious) little idea where up is.
