Python and /etc/resolv.conf changes
by Jesse Keating
I'm looking at what might be a bug in python. The anaconda installer
launches python, then we get network configs going and write out some
files such as /etc/resolv.conf. However that original python process
can't seem to resolve anything after this file has been written out,
whereas new python processes started on a different terminal can indeed
use the new /etc/resolv.conf data.
My thought is that the original python process is using stale
information, and that something like a res_init() is needed, but google
doesn't seem to have any real connection between python and calling
res_init. The guys in #python on freenode aren't exactly sure what to
do here either.
In fact, I just did a simple test of an strace on python, where I import
socket, do a lookup, modify /etc/resolv.conf, do more lookups and review
the results. Strace shows that python opens /etc/resolv.conf exactly
once (after I've imported socket), and never again, so it never sees any
of the changes made.
Can anybody confirm what I'm seeing as buggy and in need of fixing?

Wrong security attributes. Maybe a bug?
by Joshua C.
I used to change the owner of some files to root and set them in 444
mode in order to prevent them from modification. And it worked that
way without any issues.
Recently I saw that I can modify/delete any file in my home directory.
Even if it is owned by root and is set as 444. If I'm the owner of the
directory these files are in, I can do whatever I want with them
regardless of their owner and attributes. This is in
kde-dolphin-4.1.4.fc9.
Is this a security bug or change in the kde/dolphin policies? Has
anyone else experienced this?

Great - thanks. I was actually going to write something very similar for yum-utils for F11 to allow automatic installing of langpacks, etc, for when installing packages.
My idea was to use meta-packages for that though. So if you have have say the "japanese-support" metapackage installed and then go to install openoffice it would pull in the Japanese lang pack for you automatically. I agree with Rex that it needs to support more than just langpacks. Eg installing kde should pull in ibus-qt if you are using ibus for example, but I think that could be done. There was also a request for such support for emacs support subpackages, which might work both ways (ie either when installing emacs and/or the program the subpackage is supporting (eg emacs-git)).
So how about including this in yum-utils?

NFS tcp wrapper situation
by Warren Togami
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=480420#c17
Here is some background information of how this happened. A long
standing bug in NFS since August 2000 is that it did not support tcp
wrappers /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow. This was fixed upstream,
but then they discovered an issue.
/etc/hosts.deny:
mountd: badhost.example.com
If DNS is down or the source IP address lacks a reverse lookup, then it
has no way of knowing that it is meant to be denied. It allows the
connection. This was considered to a be an unacceptable bug. If
someone specifies a hostname, from a security perspective they expect
the failure case to err to the side of caution and deny by default if
cannot affirm that the incoming client is not a listed denied hostname.
Thus "deny upon reverse DNS failure" became the default behavior in
nfs-utils.
This manifested in F-9 and F-10 with a many people suddenly unable
to NFS mount after nfs-utils update hit mirrors ~January 14th. This is
especially problematic in cases where people use caching DNS
nameservers, as it is non-trivial to explain to everyone how to setup a
proper DNS for arbitrary addresses. These individuals might also have
no control over DNS on their network.
I believe that "hostname in /etc/hosts.deny fails to deny" should be
NOTABUG for several reasons:
* BAD POLICY and MISCONFIGURATION.
TCP wrappers is behaving exactly how it is defined in policy. Hostname
in hosts.deny (itself always a bad idea) is dependent on the DNS server
to be properly configured and operating. Failure due to hostnames in
/etc/hosts.deny is MISCONFIGURATION. If they are really concerned about
unknown clients connecting to that service, then they should use a
wildcard like "mountd: ALL" and allow specific hosts or IP ranges in
/etc/hosts.allow.
* Host names in iptables or tcp wrappers rules are ALWAYS a bad idea
because you are relying upon an unreliable and insecure external data
source that is DNS. DNS can be too easily spoofed, hijacked, denial of
service attacked, and it lacks any semblance of authentication or
encryption.
* It is wrong for a service wrapped by tcp wrappers to over-engineer
itself to workaround misconfiguration on the part of the sysadmin.
* It is inconsistent with the behavior of any other service wrapped by
tcp wrappers. "sshd: badhost.example.com" allows incoming connections
if reverse DNS lookup fails. Does this mean sshd and every other
service wrapped by tcp wrappers should also be modified?
* This is inconsistent with iptables. "iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport
22 -s badhost.example.com -j REJECT" might also fail to reject an
incoming connection under similar DNS-related conditions. It would be
clearly wrong for sshd to second-guess and parse iptables rules, and
make its own decision based its own reverse DNS query matching hostnames
found in those iptables rules. Why is it OK to second guess tcp
wrappers but not iptables?
* Even if we agree that this is a bug that should be fixed and not
simply sysadmin misconfiguration, the correct layer to fix it is in tcp
wrappers itself, not the individual wrapped services.
We had a lengthy discussion and have come to reluctant agreement on how
to proceed from here. It was decided by the filesystem people that even
if it is only the result of misconfiguration, nfs-utils should protect
and deny by default.
Steve is working on the next build of nfs-utils with slightly different
logic. It will behave exactly as it did before this change (no tcp
wrappers or deny on reverse DNS lookup failure). It will only enable
tcp wrapper and the new denial behavior if any mountd, statd or wildcard
lines appear in /etc/hosts.deny or /etc/hosts.allow.
We will hopefully have a new build tomorrow.
Workarounds until this is fixed...
==================================
1) Remove tcpwrappers (if you don't need quotas this might be OK)
2) Downgrade nfs-utils to these versions:
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/nfs-utils/1.1.2/7.fc9/
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/nfs-utils/1.1.4/4.fc10/
3) For LTSP users, you can opt to stop using NFS entirely. LTSP users
can switch to NBD instead, which is a little more work, but clients boot
a little faster.

Spins SIG Meeting Minutes 19-01-2009
by Jeroen van Meeuwen
These are the meeting minutes for our last meeting, and as you can see
there's lots of stuff to do still, even some of our agenda items needed
to be moved to our mailing list or to the next meeting.
The minutes are also available on the meeting wiki page at:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Spins_SIG_Meeting_2009-01-19
Before the week is over, you'll see some threads on our Spins SIG list ;-)
Kind regards,
Jeroen van Meeuwen
-kanarip
PS: Can someone point me to the irc2html log converter?
= Meeting Minutes =
== Attendees ==
* [[User:Kanarip|Jeroen van Meeuwen]]

* [[User:Huff|David Huff]]
* [[User:Igor|Igor Pires Soares]]
== Spins Process ==
* [[User:Kanarip]]: Q&A
* bkearney: Accepted means "will be composed and released through
Release Engineering"?
** kanarip: Accepted means it'll be handed off to Release Engineering to
be composed and released, and get a torrent and page on
spins.fedoraproject.org
** poelcat: If it does not fail testing
* bruno: No wiki name space described for the Spins pages
** kanarip: /Foo_Spin or SIGs/Education/Education_Live_Spin
** nirik: $name_Spin would be better as wiki hates /'s
* bkearney: If trademark is not accepted, it is not a spin?
** kanarip: then it's a "Fedora Remix", and goes back to category
Incomplete_Spin, yes
* kanarip: Take the process up for vote now, get people to draft up the
details and review in 2 weeks
* kanarip: Vote is: Do you agree with the process set forth in the
Spins_Process wiki page, bearing in mind some of the details still need
to be filled out?
** kanarip, bkearney, nirik, bruno, notting, huff, igorps, poelcat: +1
** Vote passed
* kanarip: i need 1-3 volunteers who can take on the details on the
process, the 5 sub-items for agenda item #1
** bryan, bruno, kanarip taking on the details on Spins_Process, up for
review and voting during our next meeting in two weeks
== Action Items ==
* Create details pages up for review in our next meeting (bkearney,
bruno, kanarip)
== Meeting Time and Schedule ==
* kanarip: Does the current time and schedule work for most of us?
** SIG: Yes
* kanarip: Meeting time and schedule set until someone brings it up again
== Determining the Spins SIG workflow ==
* kanarip: i'd like to see a more formalized set of tasks to be
performed by the Spins SIG and the spin maintainers, so that we know
when to branch off GIT, what to branch, what to compose(-test), what to
expect from spin maintainers, etc.
** huff, bruno; since the process details are not there yet, part of the
timeline and such isn't available to formalize
== Process of recurring releases ==
* The question is whether Spins that have been approved for Fedora N-1
need to get trademark approval again
* The question also is what to do with the Wiki pages?
** nirik: How about they have to add a page for each release, but can
automagically pass some steps? board approval? spins sig approval?
** kanarip: poelcat and myself have thought of a way to maintain the
same page for different releases, linking to the release-specific
revision of that page.
** poelcat: Overview pages would have to be modified
** kanarip: Category: package are overview pages
** ianweller chimes in but since there's only 10 minutes left, we need
to take this to the fedora-wiki mailing list
== Action Items ==
* kanarip to take the recurring releases process wiki tracking
discussion to the fedora-wiki mailing list
== Media larger then 4GB ==
* A vote was started, but due to the time constraint it didn't pass nor fail
* kanarip suggested bruno strips the Games spin to under 4GiB for now,
so that it is not an issue, and revisit for Beta
== Action Item ==
* kanarip to put the 4GiB limit on the Agenda for the next meeting
== Current Spins ==
* Call for volunteers to check the current spin pages and add them to
the appropriate category is moved to mailing list.

killall5 during halt, trouble with nbd-client
by Warren Togami
https://fedorahosted.org/k12linux/wiki/NBDRootConfiguration
The fastest way to boot a diskless client is with NBD root filesystem
instead of NFS. It works great.
/dev/nbd0 squashfs mounted at /
/dev/nbd1 dm_crypt swap as /dev/mapper/swap0
Unfortunately there is a problem during shutdown...
/etc/init.d/halt contains:
action $"Sending all processes the TERM signal..." /sbin/killall5 -15
sleep 2
action $"Sending all processes the KILL signal..." /sbin/killall5 -9
Thereafter it stops swap and unmounts filesystems. Only it gets stuck
and fails to reboot or poweroff here, because the underlying block
devices have disappeared due to killall5. The two nbd-client instances
that were running /dev/nbd0 and /dev/nbd1 block devices are now gone,
causing the system to get stuck.
Would iscsi root filesystem have the same problem during shutdown?
It seems NFS root shutdown doesn't have this issue because there is no
userspace process to kill that would kill the filesystem mount.
Any ideas how we can cleanly handle shutdown in cases like NBD where a
userspace process is providing the block device, but gets killed
prematurely?

Re: ibus and F11

Users upgrading from earlier Fedora releases can continue to use scim or if they wish they can install ibus themselves and use that. Scim will be continue to be in Fedora for the time being.
> Can I define my own shortcuts for switching IMs, like in SCIM?
Yep, you can in ibus-setup. Right click on ibus icon and select Preferences.
> Is there an applet for showing currently selected IM, like in SCIM?
Yes, there is.
You can already install and test ibus today if you are running F9, F10, or rawhide:
Install your favourite engine with:
sudo yum install ibus-<engine> ibus-gtk
where <engine> is one of anthy, chewing, hangul, m17n, pinyin, table-chinese, etc. Install ibus-qt if you need support for Qt and KDE.

Koji: ServerOffline
by Jitesh Shah
Hi,
I have a koji server running locally at my workplace.
Recently, I am unable to execute any koji cli command (or I am unable to
access the web interface too, for that matter). I get the following
error:
"[kojiadmin@linux-dev koji]$ koji list-tags
ServerOffline: database outage"
Wireshark shows that the very first xmlrpc call "getAPIVersion" fails
with this error. I couldn't find any logs for koji.
I can still access the database through commandline and the database is
intact. The role "kojiadmin" exists and has all the proper permissions
(koji was working!.. so, the setup is good)
Any pointers??
(Note: Please redirect me to the proper list if this isn't the one. Its
just that I couldn't find any other lists discussing koji :) )
