Tunning EAP-TTLS with PAP
by Sergio Belkin 06 May '08

06 May '08

Hi, I have a freeradius server that is working well in university. We use EAP-TTLS and PAP protocols. Users from Windows can use Securew2. Users from Linux and Mac OS X luckily have native support for EAP-TTLS and PAP. (if you think is Off Topic, keep reading on). On Ubuntu I can use the nm-applet for setting the connection up. But I'd want to find a way to automatize it, that it finds the TTLS certificate and verifies the server name (I didn't see this feature in Linux). Could you help me to do this? (What tools/apps and file config should I look?) Thanks in advance! -- -- Open Kairos http://www.openkairos.com Watch More TV http://sebelk.blogspot.com Sergio Belkin -

Has anyone here been able to view Netflix movies on CentOS? (It requires Internet Explorer, and I'm wondering what the workaround is for Firefox)

Ahm, it wasn't money that influenced the OJ case, it was, race, coupled with incompetence on the side of the prosecution. Now if Reiser had kept his mouth shut he might have just been acquitted. He had a good attorney, that attorney gave him sound advise and he chose to ignore it anyways. I also believe if he had confessed to what happened he would have received manslaughter, though after the cover up he would have gotten the max sentence plus obstruction of justice and God knows what else, but still less than first degree. -Ross ----- Original Message ----- From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org <centos-bounces(a)centos.org> To: centos(a)centos.org <centos(a)centos.org> Sent: Mon May 05 18:41:10 2008 Subject: [CentOS] Way OT Re: OT- Re: ext3 filesystems larger than 8TB on 5-5-2008 3:24 PM John R Pierce spake the following: > Ross S.

I was basing that on the fact that she had secured Russian citizenship for her children prior to the divorce, but I cannot get the complete details as I just don't have the time these days to follow any story in great length. I still stand behind the idea that it was a case of accidental manslaughter that was attempted to be covered up. Is there a court tv mailing list out there? -Ross ----- Original Message ----- From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org <centos-bounces(a)centos.org> To: CentOS mailing list <centos(a)centos.org> Sent: Mon May 05 18:24:40 2008 Subject: Re: [CentOS] OT- Re: ext3 filesystems larger than 8TB Ross S.

wine question
by fred smith 05 May '08

05 May '08

Before bothering the wine folks thought I'd ask here... On my fully-updated (fully operational battle station), er, centos box I seem to be able to use the Centos-released version of wine to run the software installers for quite a few apps. However, at no time during the installer do I actually see any text in any of the dialogs that appear. This makes it a little hard to choose options :) Does anyone here have any experience using wine like this and perhaps can tell me what I need to do to fix it? for years I've had one of the huge sets of national geographic on CDROM, and years ago it wouldn't even install on wine. I've just used acroread to view the files in the past, but thought I'd see today if the wine i've got will install it. Yes, it seems to, but it's hard to tell what choices I made. For example, it wont' actually run (now that it is installed) unless I register it, which apparently is done as part of the installation. Before I go run the installer again and see if I can fake my way through registration I'd like to see if there's a way to tweak Wine so it'll let me see the text in the installer windows (and the legends on the buttons).

SELinux policy module sources
by Ingemar Nilsson 05 May '08

05 May '08

Hi. I'm trying to figure out where the SELinux policy modules shipped with the system live, and how they work. The modules listed by 'semodule -l' are the same as those available in /etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/modules, but those are not part of any package, and are presumably added and removed to this location as they are added and removed to the kernel. I later found these modules to live in /usr/share/selinux. If I create a policy module of my own, is this the place to put it to make sure that it is loaded when the system boots? Or do I also need to list it somewhere, such in a configuration file? The reason why I ask is because there are a few .pp files in this directory that are not visible in the list of loaded modules, and they are also not available in the /etc/selinux/.../modules directory above. I today tried to figure out what these precompiled policy packages contain, but that isn't exactly obvious. I found .if files in /usr/share/selinux/devel/include/... that correspond to the .pp files in /usr/share/selinux, but nothing else. The .if files only contain definitions, but don't these need to be used somewhere, such as in .te files? And what about the .fc files that the policy generation tool in system-config-selinux creates? Are such files not needed? Lots of questions, but the documentation on this subject isn't exactly stellar. :) Regards Ingemar

Re: [CentOS] ext3 filesystems larger than 8TB
by Brent L. Bates 05 May '08

I believe Florin Andrei had a typo in his message. No other file system will be as reliable as *XFS*. I've had XFS recover from system failures that Ext3 would/could not recover from. If you want dependability, reliability, and also large file systems, only use XFS. You'll find none better. You should also be using the 64 bit kernels as well, but then, you want that for a whole lot other reasons anyways. -- Brent L. Bates (UNIX Sys. Admin.)

kingston usb memory stick and file mode permissions
by James B. Byrne 05 May '08

05 May '08

I wish to change the ownership and access permissions of files and directories contained on this device. The device is immediately recognized and mounted when plugged in and I can create and move files on it. However, I cannot change either the permissions or the owner of any file or directory on this device, nor of the device mount itself, whether logged in as the owner or as root. Why is this so and is their any way to alter this behaviour. Sincerely, -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

Slightly OT? - How do I set up Win98 to access a printer on my CentOS box?
by MHR 05 May '08

05 May '08

I have a WinXP guest under VMWare on my CentOS 5.1 host and it can access the CentOS printer(s) just fine. However, I also have a Win98 box on the LAN that I would like to be able to print on the CentOS printer. When I try to connect to the printer, Win98 tells me that it can't find the network...? Any suggestions? (This "slightly" really is - it _is_ directly related to CentOS, unlike my previous FC8 post....) Thanks. mhr
