All, I have a working OpenDJ with SSL enabled and have also added users to it.... Now, I am unable to authenticate my linux box to OpenDJ LDAP server, either from login prompt or ssh...

Centos 5.10 Firefox 24.3.0 HTML OL
by Always Learning 13 Feb '14

13 Feb '14

Firefox used to render <ol type="a"> <li>.................</li> as a. ............... Now it does not. The HTML 4.1 spec at http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/lists.html#type-values says use CSS instead. These <ol type="a"> <ol type="A"> <ol type="i"> used to work in the Centos 5 supplied Firefox. Now OL produce digits instead. http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_ol_type.asp states "Differences Between HTML 4.01 and HTML5 The type attribute of the <ol> element is no longer deprecated in HTML5." If something is "deprecated" it is supposed to work until it is withdrawn or cancelled. Is Firefox's inability to render <ol type="a"> a bug or a very annoying irritation especially as I have hundreds of hand-coded pages using it ? :-( -- Paul. England, EU.

Speaking of firefox...
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

The latest version seems to have a bug. One of my users went to look at a paper in Phy Rev E, and the firefox pdf view looked fine... but what printed had garbage for scales on the graphs. Then I had him use the firefox print preview... and it was garbage. Looked at it on my system, ditto, and firefox was updated yesterday on all our systems. Save as (why isn't there an "open"?) a .pdf, pull it up in acroread, and print, and everything's fine. mark

Perl516 SCL modules
by Nicole Hähnel 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

Hi, I'm trying to build several SCL perl516 modules for using assp spamfilter. Some modules have dependencies which spend a lot of errors or can not be build on a x86_64 system. perl-Email-Valid-0.184 for example needs Win32::IPHelper and Win32::TieRegistry. If I build this rpm for standard perl510, the Win32 modules are not required. Why are theses dependencies only for perl516? Can I exclude the Win32 modules without getting problems? Does anyone have a few tips? Thanks in advance! Kind regards, Nicole

Where to get Sernet-Samba4 questions answered?
by James B. Byrne 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

Not wanting to build Samba4 myself I spent some time searching for rpm packages suitable for use on our CentOS-6.5 hosts. I discovered http://enterprisesamba.com/ which provides rpms (sernet-samba-4.1.4-7) for CentOS-6. However, I cannot find an online support community for this package and requests for help made to the samba.org list have met with absolute silence. Since my requests had to do with uncaught exceptions with stack traces and PANICs in samba-tools I can only infer from the silence that that list does not handle support enquires from anyone that does not build their own Samba4 from source. I have been to sernet.de which builds the rpms and the site is in German, a language I have not used in over twenty years and which I never read very well. It refers to EnterpriseSamba.com but that site in turn provides no reference to an online support community of users. So, I need help and I need some guidance as to where to go get it. Does anyone here use the same packages for their Samba setups? Does anyone know of an online support group for users of this particular package? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

greetings, a previous install and updated centos 6.4 from dvd 1 x86_64 got trashed. not sure of cause. no big deal. install practice never hurts. :-) now, installation is: CentOS-6.4-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso installed as; CentOS (2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64) - root (hd1,2) SL-63-i386-2012-08-24-LiveCD.iso installed and updated as; Scientific Linux (2.6.32-431.1.2.el6.i686) - root (hd1,5) /dev/sdb5 /home after initial install of c6.4, second install phase went well. rebooted and checked boot up 3 times, all with successful logins. needed some kde configuration information from sl63, rebooted, selected sl63, boot ok. when tried to login to kde, user 'geo' password refused and user 'root' password refused. booted sl-62-i386 install dvd in rescue mode; chroot /mnt/sysimage passwd root passwd geo exit exit reboot login to sl63 as 'geo' and 'root' ok. ran email, ran some web work. rebooted to centos, 'geo' and 'root' passwords refused, tried twice, booted centos dvd-1 in rescue mode, made same entries as with sl62. rebooted to c64, login to c64 as 'geo' and 'root' ok. rebooted to sl62, tried to login as 'geo' and 'root', nfw, refused. it is now a continuous cycle of repeating of above. any and all help, ideas, suggestions, will be greatly appreciated. tia. -- peace out. in a world with out fences, who needs gates. tc.hago. g .

off NM problem [low priority]
by Fred Smith 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

On Centos 6.5, I use NM to bring up the VPN to my office, and to disconnect from it. every now and then I screw up and disconnect the LAN itself instead of the VPN. once I do that, even after reconnecting to the LAN I'm hosed. /etc/resolv.conf hasn't been put back to the non-VPN version, so I manually fix that. but even then I can't get any name resolution. I'm sure that rebooting IS NOT the right answer, but it's the only one I've come up with that solves the problem. What should I be doing instead, once the system is in this state? thanks! -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." ------------------------------ Matthew 7:21 (niv) -----------------------------

OpenVPN problem
by Timothy Murphy 12 Feb '14

12 Feb '14

I'm having problems communicating with a remote server, with openvpn. I can link with ssh ok, but the link stalls when viewing any but the smallest texts. I tried reducing the tun0 MTU, though only from 1500 to 1400, but this seemed to have no effect. Before trying a larger reduction, I'd like to clarify two points. Firstly, is it necessary to re-boot the remote machine for the change in MTU to come into effect? Or is it sufficient to re-start the openvpn service? (I'm reluctant to re-boot the remote machine unless it is essential.) Secondly, must the MTU be changed at both ends? Any info on these two points gratefully received. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
