Single sign-on doesn't require a LDAP server, but some kind of central
identity magament which can be supplied by using a Kerberos V KDC like
the Kerberos V MIT implementation that comes in the form of krb5-*
packages for Fedora Core.
Once upon I time I wrote the attached document which enumerates all
the steps I had to perform in order to set up a Kerberos V KDC and how
to configure services like OpenSSH to support single sign-on. HTH.

BTW, the initramfs standard allows for multiple cpio archives, so in
principle, one could have an "addon" images. That's useful, because
we want kernel modules in the the initrd-$KVER.img, but we could have
a generic initrd-rescue.img that is loaded after it.
Caveat: I haven't tried this, and don't know whether it actually works
with current kernels.

The main issue is that the only double-layer recordable media available
on the street is DVD+R DL.
There is some DVD-R DL out there now, but it is not common.
The opposite was true of DVD readers, DVD dash whatever came out first,
drives that can read DVD plus whatever came later.
So if you have an older DVD reader ( DVD dash only ), it won't read
DVD+R DL discs.
If it is a stamped, duplicated double-layer disk ( DVD-9 ), _any_ DVD
reader should work, and should be considered a bug in the reader if it
doesn't.

As an OS X user since Server 1.0, I feel the need to step out of the
lurker shadow.
OS X does not _have_ a package management system.
One of its greatest weaknesses IMHO.

Installing applications is easy on OS X, by design. One of the trade
offs is there are many apps that could share libraries but don't. Most
are statically linked ( except for OS-provided frameworks ). Some
people bitch about high RAM usage in Fedora, I think OS X is worse.
> So no one uses fink anymore to get applications? I guess i should go
> tell them to close the project down.
Fink is a third-party application that fills a void in the base OS. It
is not included in the OS, like rpm. It can't install _any_
application, only those it knows about.
There is no way on OS X to ask the system what is the version of app
foo, or ask it if app foo is even installed. You could look in the
"Applications" Directory, but apps don't have to live there, so you
can't be sure. From a single user perspective that may not be a big
issue. As a system admin, that is a pain. Keeping users from installing
random applications can be a _good_ thing.
The a OS X .pkg format an installer depend on frail scripts to
accomplish many things rpm does in an enforced, consistent way.
And it uses a freakish .bom format as storage. OK, maybe the storage
format isn't a big problem.
There was talk on the Darwin devel list about adding a package
management system, but inaction is the decision. It is a hard problem
to solve. The application installation/management needs of a
single-user desktop are almost opposite of a server, or a
company-managed desktop.
As for ease of use, users here are experienced in both OS X and
Winders. Since we use Fedora too, when I show anyone "sudo yum update
foo," they say, "That's it? It's that easy?"
You can look to OS X for ease-of-use with installers, but it isn't as
good as rpm/dpkg/ports in many ways, and some OS X users suffer because
of that.
At least I do.

enhance security via private TMP/TMPDIR by default
by Matthew Miller
Just a thought:
/etc/profile.d/tmpdir.sh:
# For privacy and security, set temporary directories to ~/tmp on local
# filesystems -- but for network filesystems, make up one in /tmp.
# The trap statement cleans up the temporary directory if it's empty on exit.
if [ -z "$TMP" ]; then
if [ $EUID -ne 0 ] && [ -d $HOME/tmp ] &&
[ $( df --local $HOME | wc -l ) -gt 1 ]; then
TMP=$HOME/tmp
else
TMP=$( mktemp -d /tmp/${HOSTNAME}.tmp.XXXXXXXX ) || exit 1
trap "rmdir --ignore-fail-on-non-empty $TMP" EXIT

if [ -z "$TMPDIR" ]; then
TMPDIR=$TMP

alsa-oss
by Jeremy Sanders
Is there any reason why the alsa-oss package isn't part of fedora? This is
quite useful if you want to use the dmix alsa mixer and get oss apps to
mix their output too.
I've managed to hack together an updated version of the alsa-oss spec file
(from livna) which appears to work.
