SELinux contexts
by Paolo Galtieri
I received a SELinux alert today which said:
SELinux is preventing /usr/local/bin/snort from search access on the
directory logs.
One of the options was to do:
semanage fcontext -a -t FILE_TYPE 'logs'
(lots of FILE_TYPEs)
followed by
restorecon -v 'logs'
So here is what happens:
ll -Zd logs
drwxr-xr-x. root root unconfined_u:object_r:file_t:s0 logs
sudo semanage fcontext -a -t var_log_t 'logs'
sudo restorecon -v 'logs'
restorecon: Warning no default label for /media/NSM/NSM-SENSOR-2/logs
ll -Zd logs
drwxr-xr-x. root root unconfined_u:object_r:file_t:s0 logs
Nothing has changed.
So what do I need to do to set the file context correctly?

confine user(s) to a core with systemd + gcgroup
by lejeczek
hi everybody
I thought I could easily (as easily as I could do that with
libcgroup) permanently restric a user to a specific cpu core.
I thought it would be CPUAffinity responsible for it either
in systemd-user-sessions or(and) in systemd-logind
but it does not work,
is it possible to have user(s) sessions permanently
restricted in this way? so his/her processes would be
executed only on given core?
if yes then how would you do this? please shed some light
thanks

OT: ssh and svn+ssh with different keys
by Hiisi
Dear list!
Sorry for off-topic. I know you're cool guys and will help me :)
Is there way to use two different keys for ssh authentication on one
machine for the same user to login the same server? I need one key for
svn+ssh to run command on remote server and the other key to login and work
from shell on that same server.
TIA

System is f19 remix on armv7 (Allwinner A20).
The <windows key + l> which is what I use in F20 on x86 with Gnome.

Importing mail archive into Thuderbird
by Robert Moskowitz
I am asking this here, as my system is F20 with Thunderbird 24.7.0.
I have downloaded an month's archived messages for Centos-arm and want
to import them into Thunderbird where I could then respond to them more
easily.
I tried the Tools>Import but when I select email, nothing is listed in
the dialog box. So how might I do the import? Where might i find
instructions?

abrt questions??
by bruce
Hi.
Doing some tests on fed/centos boxes..
Running a test app, that in turn kicks off a bunch of python apps..
The test is long running. for hours!
However, somewhere along the way, the py apps die/crash. In looking
over the /var/log/messages logs, I see the abrt indicating it's
captured data for the crash, but it seems to also then delete the data
it collected.
An example of what I'm seeing is below.
I'm trying to figure out what parameters I can set, and where I need
to set the attributes, to be able to capture/analyse the resulting
data to figure out why the test py app is crashing..
Thoughts/comments would be useful..
Thanks

javafx
by Mike Wright
Hi all,
Does anybody know of any plans to package javafx for fedora? It
apparently exists somewhere in RedHat.
It provides a top level Window object for containing scenes or pop-ups.
I have an app that won't run without it.
Thanks for any information,
Mike Wright

using USB memory
by Angelo Moreschini
Hi,
I have some problems to use USB memories .
Fedora recognize automatically thr USB pen that I plug inside a USB socket:
..... I can see it as
Bus 002 Device 003: id 0781:5575 SanDisk Corp
as result of command "lsubs".
I can also go inside it using Nautilus, and to work with the files stored
inside it *but only if I use Nautilus*.
Instead I cannot use this pen by the terminal (using commands line).
If I execute :
ls /mnt/dir_where_is_mounted,
I don't see the files that are inside the pen.., .. the output is not
rigth ....
I thougth it necessary to mount manually the USB pen for achieve this
targhet
but I didn't get success also in this way...
*Can some one explain me how tho work with my USB pen *by command line**?
We need (manually) to mount the USB devices (memory flash, Hard Disk, ..)
to achieve some purpouse ?
Regards
Thank you

Email issues
by Mike Chambers
I think my email server is working and accepting emails, but my
workstation that connects to said email server, via evolution and
through dovecot, is no longer receiving emails, and no configurations
have changed. Although I can get emails, from gmail or whomever.
Wondering if my domain was hacked or something.

python error in updated yum FC20
by Barry
I installed Fedora 20 yesterday, and after the installation was done, I
installed a few packages successfully and then updated all the packages,
and then shut down
Today when I first turned on the machine, I tried installing the
remaining stuff I want, and I got a python error, to wit:
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/yum/i18n.py", line 1
SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xfb' in file
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/yum/i18n.py on line 2, but no encoding
declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details
I took a look at i18n.py, and it's a binary file, which couldn't be
right.
There's no i18n.pyo, but there is a i18n.pyc.
It seems to me I might be able to reinstall python from the rpm, but I'm
not sure about this.
Thanks for any help
