Unexpected login/nsswitch.conf behavior.
by Bisbal, Prentice
I'm using Kerberos 5 for authentication and LDAP to provide account/host
information.Kerberos and LDAP are served from the same system. The server
and my client(s) are both FC1. My nsswitch.conf file has "files" listed
first, followed by "ldap" for all services provided by LDAP:
passwd: files ldap
shadow: files ldap
group: files ldap
hosts: files ldap dns
I would expect this to allow me to login as root on a system that has lost
connectivity with the LDAP/Kerberos server, since root's account information
is in local files. However, if my workstations loose communication with the
LDAP/Kerberos server, I can't login at all, not even as root. After I type
in the root username, The system appears to hang, but I eventually will get
a "Login timeout" error. I've tested this my unplugging my ethernet cable
and trying to login as root.
My /etc/pam.d/system-auth file looks at pam_unix.so before pam_krb5.so, and
was generated using authconfig. I just added the debug arguments to help
track down this problem:
#%PAM-1.0
# This file is auto-generated.
# User changes will be destroyed the next time authconfig is run.
auth required /lib/security/$ISA/pam_env.so debug

Any ideas?

Atitvout Fedora Core 3 problems
by chrmica
Hi,
I upgraded from FC 1 to FC 3 on my dell Insprion 5100 which has an ATI
Mobility 7500 32 mb, I used atitvout to enable tv-out with the following
command atitvout -f t but this has stopped working since I upgraded to FC 3
any suggestions on how to fix this I also tested with the vesa driver on FC3
and tv-out works but would like to get it to work with the radeon driver.
Thx

Re: FC3 -- KDE CDROM, xmodmap and pilot-xfer
by Adam
I also have the mounting cdrom problem in kde off a fresh install. It also mounts in gnome. I believe I chose to install everything. Any help anyone could provide would be great. [obviously gnome is far superior?]
(the issue this original question was in was vol 9, issue 519)

^^^^^^^
Is this the right version number? 2.4.2-5.2.FC2, which appears higher, has
been in the update area for a month or so.
Hmm. In fact from the changelog of that package, 3.FC2.1 is from July 8, and
there's several fixes since then....

Configure initial wallpapers
by Patrick
Does anybody know how to configure the initial wallpapers of Fedora 3?
Is there a way I can determine which wallpapers will or will not be visible to the users?
In other words, where is the "original" wallpaper-list stored??

Interesting, didn't know that existed. Has anyone used this distro?

mailman migration fc1-> fc3
by David Jansen
I'm building a new mailserver using FC3 to replace the current server
which is running FC1. Almost everything is ready, but I ran into some
issues regarding mailman. The package has been completely rearranged in
FC3, and this is an improvement, having binaries in /usr, configuration
in /etc and server data in /var/lib
Only now I wonder if I have done all that is needed to migrate the
existing lists. So far I have done:
. copied /var/mailman/archives to /var/lib/mailman/archives & modified
the symbolic links
. copied /var/mailman/data to /etc/mailman + various edits
. copied /var/mailman/lists to /var/lib/mailman/lists
. modified httpd.conf to point to the new locations
Was this the proper way or have I missed something much more obvious
like a migration script? Did I forget something? (don't think so, since
the lists and the archives seem to be working)
