Stateless linux and an idea of mine for SMALL networks without servers
by Nic
Disclaimer: I hope that this is the right mailing list, but I really
wanted to reach developers would can say if it's feasible and what to
use for that.
Anyway, I was fighting the usual problems with networks and came up with the
following dream to make my life easier as a network admin. Basically I
am tired of fixing things, of worrying if a hard disk will die, of
having to deal with data access, backup etc...
I was thinking this through by looking at how most of my coworkers,
friends, and small offices use their PCs in day-to-day operations and
applying that work flow to a solution.
Before, somebody screams, this means little or moderate daily data
generation so that, basically, a laptop drive could hold the entire
company's data. (This may require email-purge rules and other things
like that).
Anyway here it is: Basically, I suggest that (almost) all PCs in the
network be laptops with the exact same image. Furthermore, they
replicate their HD continuously (with possibly some delay).
This certainly applies to the user data and application. It may not
be necessary for the OS
I am not sure of the technology to use here, but I thought something
deriving from the P-to-P technology, some distributed file system,
some database replication technology or even freenet could be a
good base.
Since every laptop will contain ALL the data for the
whole network, every laptop uses hardware encryption
at the hard disk level using an external dongle/card/whatever to limit
the risk when a laptop is lost or stolen.
Additionally, every login ALSO uses a dongle/card for access to their
account. This makes it (almost) impossible for somebody stealing a
laptop to get access to the whole data. Additionally, it makes it
(alomst) impossible for somebody to fet to other people's data. If a
system dies, you just get a new one and sync it up. However, one main
idea is that you always have EVERYTHING you need right where you are,
no matter WHERE you are. Also, there is no UPS to worry about.
Communication between PCs could be implemented using VPN/IPSec or
whatever other protected mechanism. Internet access would have to be
"sandboxed", but UNIX based OSes allow for that easily. That's the
gist of it. A lot of things can be configured in many ways, but the
whole point here is to simplify people's life.
Look at it from a disaster recovery: a lot of people bring their laptop home.
Even if the company's building burns down as well as a few employees
homes, one surviving laptop is enough to bring the business back online.
Pros:
* seamless company disaster recovery
* seamless personal computer loss recovery (you lose everything since
the last sync)
* you can use ANY laptop and find YOUR own environment and files
* no central server/single point of failure
* no UPS except for the internet firewall (this comes from the PCs
being laptops)
Cons:
* sync across a lot of PCs might be tricky and needs to be tuned.
Maybe randonly select one as master like the SMB Master browser
election works?
* each laptop needs to have enough space for the whole company's data
* maybe not appropriate for disk intensive applications (video capture...)
I wanted to post it here for other people to use if they think it's a
good idea. (and also to preempt any proprietary company from saying
"me first")
It seems that Windows Vista is coming with some automatic
synchronization across two PCs so, that's one step towards it, but we
have different goals.
I posted this somewhere and somebody pointed me toward stateless linux
and it seems pretty cool and close to what I was thinking of. I'll
look smoe more into it, but does anybody see this as useful for VERY
SMALL networks? (I already got bashed by enterprise admins sneernig at
people who don't want a rack server, so if that's your intent, just
reply "me too").
Feel free to comment (I know people will).

AC_PATH_XTRA vs modular xorg
by Toshio Kuratomi
Does AC_PATH_XTRA (an autoconf macro used in configure.ac to figure out
X library and include paths) cause problems with modular xorg? From the
autoconf info page it looks like it uses xmkmf to work its magic. Is
this information current? If so, this would leave me with several
options:
1) BuildRequire: imake This will bring in xmkmf so that AC_PATH_XTRA
will work. Since xmkmf and imake are on the way out and pkgconfig is on
the way in, this doesn't seem like the right thing to do.
2) In the package's spec, use:
%configure --x-includes/x-libraries=<pkg-config output>
This seems to be driving in the right direction but isn't suitable for
sending upstream.
3) Modify the configure.ac to use pkg-config. In order to go upstream,
this would need some sort of conditional in order to do a traditional
AC_PATH_X type check in case of older X releases.
Have other people run into this type of problem in their packages yet?
Any pointers to a better way of handling it?

Make hardlinking kernel-devel optional
by Ralf Ertzinger
Hi.
I't like to request to make the hardlink stage kernel-devel does on every
install optional. It takes a damn lot of time on my not-too-fast machines,
I do not exactly care about the saved disk space, and given the rate of
kernel changes in rawhide there are a lot of wasted CPU cycles there.
There is a /etc/sysconfig/kernel, how about dropping a "HARDLINK=yes/no"
there?

Kernel issues
by Trever L. Adams
During the FC4 development cycle I mistakenly asked for 2.6.12 to be
included because it "had" the ip_conntrack for ipv6. This was based on
something I read. It turns out the person was misquoting. The USAGI
project was promising this for a patch for 2.6.12. It was never included
at least to my knowledge.
My wish list for FC5 includes the following:
TARPIT target for IPTABLES (I think it is already included).
connlimit (and friends) matching for the kernel, this exists in
documentation but has not yet made the mainstream kernel. Help should be
given to get it there and it should be included.
ip6_conntrack (or whatever it's name is) should be given similar help
and should be included.
Other than that, most of my wishes are ready being addressed. I do think
these are very important for both desktop and server/firewall machines.
Thank you,
Trever Adams

libnotify don't work for root.
by Tim Lauridsen
Hi.
I have tried to make libnotify / notification-daemon work from python.

but it dont work when running as root.
http://linux.rasmil.dk/dnl/test/test-dbus.py
It is the same when i am using the

Anybody have any clues ???

Rescue CD (and other) questions
by Ivan Gyurdiev
1) Why isn't /selinux automatically mounted for existing installations?
Without it, rpm installs do not work when rescuing from a
selinux-enabled kernel, such as the one in FC5T2 (because attempts to
set the file context fail).
2) I want to migrate data from an old disk onto a new one. Currently I
have two logical volumes that span both disks, and take up 100% of the
space. I'd like to reduce a lv, in order to migrate the data. Doesn't
seem to work from the rescue CD.
lvresize -r -L -120G /dev/cobra/home2 says:
fsadm: execlp failed: No such file or directory.
Any suggestions? One of the things it's looking at is
/proc/lvm/VGs/cobra.. (/proc/lvm doesn't exist).
3) Unrelated question: When I originally added my sata drive to the
volume group, my kernel would no longer boot. Investigation showed that
sd_mod doesn't get loaded into the initrd, and without it nothing works.
I had to edit mkinitrd to make it put that module in the archive. Why
would that happen?

RE:RE: Compiling pcmcia drivers...
by Thomas Fischer
Dan,
Version 0.15 (which is the version in the kernel) still has some issues with
specific orinoco type cards. Certain cards return/require a specific header
when doing scan or rfmon (see for example:
http://www.kismetwireless.net/download.shtml)
Applying this patch to kernel source doesn't work. But I also noticed that
there are other certain incompatibilities as welll that are addressed in the
Agere source. Ok so I am being a little finky ;) but this is also in a sense
a test of what (I am personallY) able to achieve in Linux (learn as you
go...)
I will try the hostap drivers to see if that helps.
I am still curious to know though how it is possible to compile a pcmcia
driver that requires the use of pcmcia-cs source for compilitation...

Upstream Orinoco has supported scanning for quite a while. Dave Jones
merged that support into the upstream kernel sometime around 2.6.14.
Furthermore, if you really want _everything_ that the orinoco has to
offer, don't use the 'orinoco' driver, use the 'hostap' driver in recent
kernels. That supports both Master mode _and_ wpa_supplicant. In fact,
if I plug in my WaveLAN card, hostap seems to be the default driver
anyway, not orinoco.
What other bits are missing that aren't provided by hostap?
