[FC8] ssh and CAC card???
by Todd Denniston 17 Sep '24

17 Sep '24

From what I understood, the change to openssh listed in: rpm -q --changelog openssh |less as: "* Wed Jun 20 2007 Tomas Mraz <tmraz(a)redhat.com> - 4.5p1-7 - experimental NSS keys support - correctly setup context when empty level requested (#234951) " was supposed to allow the Common Access Card (CAC) to work with the shipped Fedora 8 ssh. As per NSS usual, everything is undocumented, i.e., `ssh-add --help` does not help at all, and `man ssh-add` points to `ssh-add -s reader` # ssh-add -s 0 Enter passphrase for smartcard: SSH_AGENT_FAILURE Could not add card: 0 # ssh-add -s 1 Enter passphrase for smartcard: SSH_AGENT_FAILURE Could not add card: 1 So does anyone know how to use the possible functionality, or are we reduced to reading the source? -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter

This list's search engine not working?
by HaJo Schatz 22 May '24

22 May '24

Ever since I stumbled across this list, I seem to have major difficulties searching the archives. Say I want to see my posts to the list (they all have the same footer as below), I believe I could go to http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/ and enter "HaJo" as a search string. Searching in all sections, I get 0 results. Does the search engine ignore me by some reason? BTW -- I've been posting since about June, and when showing the archives sorted by author, I do find my posts. OK, not the most helpful to search for my own posts, but I do have the same issue when searching for given topics. Any other search engine out there indexing this list reliably? Google shows 0 hits on a "site:www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/" search... -- HaJo Schatz <hajo(a)hajo.net> http://www.HaJo.Net PGP-Key: http://www.hajo.net/hajonet/keys/pgpkey_hajo.txt

Hi Michael, --- Michael Folin <michael.folin(a)donator.se> wrote: > how do I install Tomcat i fedora? > can't find it during the installation > If you mean during the installation of Fedora Core itself, then I don't think Tomcat is provided with Fedora Core (please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong). This means you will probably need to download Apache Jakarta Tomcat (either binaries, or the source which you'll need to build) and install it. Hope this helps.

F38 install issues
by Matt Morgan 10 Sep '23

10 Sep '23

Hi. I haven't been here for a long time, which I guess is a testament to how well Fedora works these days. I have a new laptop, set up with Windows, that I'm trying to install F38 on. I used the media writer to make a USB boot/install drive. It booted fine, and I clicked to install to hard drive. I took about half of the 1TB SSD for Fedora, and told it to continue. Then I left for a few minutes. When I came back, the computer had booted to the USB drive again (it appeared). I removed the USB drive and rebooted again. The system booted to Windows with no indication of a grub boot menu. The drive was missing the space I'd reclaimed, so clearly that worked, at least partly. But nothing I do seems to get it to boot linux or drop me at a grub menu. When I boot off the usb drive, it works, but I don't see any linux-related files on the SSD. So basically it looks like the drive got partitioned, at least partly, and the install didn't run. So I'm trying to run the install again, but no combination of clicks is getting me what I want. 1) For "Installation Destination," I see "Error checking storage configuration." I click on that, and it has the one device for me to install to. At the bottom, it says "Error checking storage configuration." When I "click for details," I get --- The following erros were encountered when checking your storage configuration. You can modify your storage layout or quit the installer. Failed to find a suitable stage 1 device: EFI System Partition must be mounted on one of /boot/efi.; EFI System Partition cannot be of type None.; EFI System Partition cannot be of type ntfs.; EFI System Partition must be mounted on one of /boot/efi.; EFI System Partition cannot be of type ext4.; EFI System Partition must e mounted on one of /boot/efi.; EFI System Partition cannot be of type btrfs,; EFI System Partition must e mounted on one of /boot/efi. ---- If I then go into "BLIVET GUI PARTITIONING" I do see a Btrfs volume, labeled "fedora_locahost-live," of 460GB. It has "home" and "root" subvolumes. It has no mountpoints for / and /home, but I can add them. Still, I guess it wants me to tell it where to put /boot? What do I do? For reference, when I look at the drive in BLIVET I see device type format size label mountpoint nvme0n1p1 partition efi 100MiB nvme0n1p2 partition 16MiB nvme0n1p3 partition ntfs 491.34GiB nvme0n1p5 partition ext4 1024MiB fedora_localhost-live nvme0n1p4 partition ntfs 662MiB So the overall picture I'm getting is that the first install didn't finish partitioning the drive (since I don't see anywhere for /boot) and didn't do any of the install. But a) I'm not really confident in that assessment b) I don't know what to do next, in any case. Is it nvwe0n1p2 where /boot was meant to go? Thanks, Matt

unwanted login
by Beartooth 02 Sep '23

02 Sep '23

One of my F38 machines has taken to demanding that I login over and over. I want not to have to login at all. (I'm the sole user, and at home.) Fwiw, I'm running xscreensaver under Mate. Where and how do I reconfigure? -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I know little (precious little!) of where up is.
