F22: Interrupted system update
by "Germán A. Racca"
Hi guys, I have this situation: I was updating my Fedora 22 at the
university, but there was a power outage and the update didn't finish.
Hopefully, I was able to boot the machine and even to login into Gnome,
but now it is impossible to continue with the update using dnf upgrade.
I tried package-cleanup --cleandupes, but it didn't work because it
wanted to remove systemd and dnf, which are protected packages and are
duplicated.
Running dnf remove $(dnf repoquery --duplicated --latest-limit -1 -q)
also gives the same result: "Error: The operation would result in
removing the following protected packages: systemd, dnf".
My question is: can I safely remove the lower versions of systemd and
dnf with rpm -e and then proceed with cleaning duplicates and continue
to update in the usual way, or how should I proceed?
Many thanks in advance!
Germán.

by Maurizio Marini
Hello
I use konqueror as my default file manager. One thing that in 15 years I was not
able to get is the refresh of left pane: after renamed (or everithing else) a
dir on right pane, there is no way to get left one refreshed.
Am I missing something?

Realtek r8169 always flapping

I noticed in dmesg that my ethernet link is flapping all the time
[Oct25 18:55] r8169 0000:02:00.0 enp2s0: link down
[ +3.131667] r8169 0000:02:00.0 enp2s0: link up

I changed the cabling, tried to plug into another switch no difference.
Any ideas will be very appreciated as this flapping brings a lot of
inconvenience.

Firewall behaviour is strange on one of my systems
by antonio montagnani
I am using a desktop where I have connected a printer: if I enable the
firewall I can connect by IP numbers and print if printer is
nameofprinter@IPof desktop (the same with vinagre, i can connect by IP
numbers and not by names): the only way to print (and connect by names
in vinagre, and share Public Files) is to have firewall stopped.
This is my firewall configuration:
FedoraWorkstation (default, active)
interfaces: p19p1
sources:
services: dhcpv6-client dns ipp ipp-client mdns samba-client ssh
ports: 1025-65535/udp 1025-65535/tcp
masquerade: no
forward-ports:
icmp-blocks:
rich rules:
any help??? Tnx

Re: Viewing a web server hosted on a server on the LAN - but seeing the modem/router instead

OK, but that is why I asked - I wasn't sure if it was Fedora networking

Right, that makes sense . .

Why sadly? If my router was doing that I wouldn't have a problem . .
Thanks,

Viewing a web server hosted on a server on the LAN - but seeing the modem/router instead
by Philip Rhoades
People,
Most of my domains are on cloud servers but a couple of less critical
ones I have hosted a server (192.168.1.10) on my LAN. The port
forwarding on the router is OK and people from outside see the web sites
no problem. Although the way I have my networking set up seems to be
fine in all other respects, when I browse to the FQDN of one of the LAN
Server-hosted web sites - from a workstation on the LAN, instead of
seeing the web site, I see the admin login screen for the modem / router
(192.168.1.1).
I am guessing there is something simple that will fix this problem but
my messing around with networking so far hasn't got me anywhere . .
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Phil.

selinux question
by Paolo Galtieri
I have 2 systems running f22. On these 2 systems I have setup snort.
On both these systems snort logs to directory /var/log/snort. On both
these systems /var/log/snort is owned by user snort and group snort.
However, on one of the systems I cannot write to /var/log/snort as user
snort.
On the system that works
/bin/ls -ldZ /var/log/snort
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root unconfined_u:object_r:snort_log_t:s0 34 Oct 22
12:54 /var/log/snort -> /media/NSM/NSM-SENSOR-1/logs/snort
/bin/ls -ldZ /media/NSM/NSM-SENSOR-1/logs/snort
drwxr-xr-x. 2 snort snort unconfined_u:object_r:colord_var_lib_t:s0 4096
Oct 27 10:50 /media/NSM/NSM-SENSOR-1/logs/snort
On the system that fails
/bin/ls -ldZ /var/log/snort
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root unconfined_u:object_r:snort_log_t:s0 44 Oct 24
17:29 /var/log/snort -> /run/media/pgaltieri/NEWDATA2/NSM/logs/snort
/bin/ls -ldZ /run/media/pgaltieri/NEWDATA2/NSM/logs/snort
drwxr-xr-x. 2 snort snort unconfined_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s0 4096 Oct
28 15:31 /run/media/pgaltieri/NEWDATA2/NSM/logs/snort
Note that on the failing system the selinux context shows the directory
has unlabeled_t context while on the working system it's
colord_var_lib_t. I set this at some point (I think), but I forget how
I did it :-(
I have also set up user snort so that I can login to the account and I get
su - snort
Password:
su: warning: cannot change directory to /var/log/snort: Permission denied
-bash: /var/log/snort/.bash_profile: Permission denied
I can write to the directory if I do
sudo touch /var/log/snort/testfile
So what do I need to do to fix this so I can get snort to write to it's
log directory?
Any assistance is appreciated.

Detecting empty office doc containing virus macro
by Gary Stainburn
We are receiving LOTS of emails that contain empty XLS or DOC documents with
embedded virus macros. These are getting past SPAMASSASSIN, Clamav and
Kaspersky.
I'm trying to write a filter for EXIM to block these emails but I need to know
a good, quick, command-line to detect an empty doc with a macro.
Is there anything available that I can use??
I have managed to write a PERL script to detect empty xls xlsx, doc and docx
files but I cannot detect whether they have any macros embedded
