Subject: how to clean /tmp at shutdown?
Hi all. I found that my fedora 16 doesnt clean /tmp at shutdown like any other linux distributions. How I can fix this issue? Using tmpfs is a wrong way.
-----Original Message-----
I like the way it was done in SunOS:
Just reformatting the partition at boottime, as deleting many files could take too long.

basic systemd question
by Brian Wood
I'm starting to use systemd. I've written a simple unit file and
systemd starts the service during boot. When I manually kill
the process though, it doesn't get restarted the way I expected
it would. Is there an option to specify for that? Thank you.

Setting up Koji question
by Gregory Hosler
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi all,
I am setting up a Koji server, and following the instructions given on the
Fedora Koji wiki
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Koji/ServerHowTo
Part way down, there are directions on
Generate a PKCS12 user certificate
This is for web browser. This is only required for user certificates.
The statement to create such a certificate is:
openssl pkcs12 -export -inkey certs/${user}.key -in certs/${user}.crt \
-CAfile ${caname}_ca_cert.crt \
-out certs/${user}_browser_cert.p12
"caname" is globally set (in the above documentation) to "koji".
My problem is the "user" variable. There are no clues or hints as to what the
user variable should be set to.
Has anyone setup Koji before ? Anyone know how this should read ?
Many thanks in advance, and all the best,
- -Greg

ssh between F16 Xfce and Cygwin
by Paul Allen Newell
Hello:
Prior to 26apr12, I was able to run ssh/scp between my 2 F16 Xfce boxes,
a F14 Gnome box, and Cygwin running on an XP box.
Today I was converting the F14 to F16 Xfce and noticed that I could no
longer ssh into the Cygwin XP box. I checked the other two F16 boxes and
they couldn't either. Those two machines have not been yum updated since
I was last able to ssh/scp.
I ran another check and discovered that, from Cygwin, I could ssh into
all three of the Linux boxes (now all F16).
Pings between all machines work (static IPs). The error I am getting is
port 22: Connection refused.
The iptables on the converted machine is the factory default.
The only thing that I know happened was there were a whole bunch of
Windows updates that affected XP after Win7 sp1 was released. However, I
checked all the hosts/IP settings and nothing has changed.
I looked in /var/log/messages and didn't see anything ... am willing to
bet I've forgotten where to look.
Since the problem "appears" to be on the F16 side, I wanted to ask this
list if anyone has any suggestions.
Thanks in advance,
Paul

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
Is tasque not available for fc16?

audio notification from system

FC16.
What is the daemon that plays a sound, seemingly
at random, and it sounds like a rattle ?
I have heard this while running previous versions of fedora.

compatibility between the two licenses then.
