SELinux and KVM
by James B. Byrne 10 Nov '09

10 Nov '09

I am trying to set up a test kvm virtual machine on a core2 quad system. I have managed to thread my way through bridging eth0 and I have a CentOS-5.4 dvd iso prepared. Using virt-manager, when I try and add a new guest then I get the error reproduced below. Now, I know that I can 'fix' this by building a local mod via audit2allow and installing via semodule. However, I cannot seem to find this particular problem when I Google for it. Therefore, it seems likely that I have done something wrong rather than having encountered a bug. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what step I may have missed in setting up a kvm guest? All I have done so far is: Install qemu. Set libvirtd to start at boot. Bridge eth0 to br0 via customs ifcfg-X scripts in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. Run virt-manager. Add a new guest. Summary: SELinux is preventing qemu-system-x86 (qemu_t) "read" to rtc (clock_device_t). Detailed Description: SELinux denied access requested by qemu-system-x86. It is not expected that this access is required by qemu-system-x86 and this access may signal an intrusion attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of the application is causing it to require additional access. Allowing Access: Sometimes labeling problems can cause SELinux denials. You could try to restore the default system file context for rtc, restorecon -v 'rtc' If this does not work, there is currently no automatic way to allow this access. Instead, you can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ (http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Or you can disable SELinux protection altogether. Disabling SELinux protection is not recommended. Please file a bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi) against this package.

Open Source (or Closed Source) multi-user password manager
by Sven Aluoor 10 Nov '09

10 Nov '09

Hello We use an Open Source Windows software[0] with about 1200 passwords. The encrypted file is stored on a CIFS-share. When concurrent write occurs, the users overwrite other users passwords. Now we are searching for a mutli-user password manager. Open Source would be good, but Closed Source is also accepted. support for Windows is a requirement and it shouldn't be a web application. So far I only found Clipperz[1] (sadly uses PHP/MySQL). Google results are bloated with SEO-spam. Can you recommend me an application? What do other Linux teams use? regards Sven [0] http://www.mirekw.com/winfreeware/pins.html [1] http://www.clipperz.com/open_source/clipperz_community_edition

Question about aspell, alpine and a Xen guest
by Scot P. Floess 10 Nov '09

10 Nov '09

I have some weird behavior I can't explain... I've noticed this behavior since CentOS 5.2 (version I started running) through 5.4... I am running a Xen host/VM. On my guest VM, I use Alpine as my email client and Aspell as the spell-check... For whatever reason, when Aspell is kicked off - there appears to be what I'd call a prolonged pause before Aspell does its job. Should I run Alpine on bare metal (even on the host OS) - there is no pause whatsoever. The pause is so bad, I've stopped using Alpine in the VM and just running on the host OS itself. Its really not a big deal, but I can't figure out what or why there is a difference. Initially I thought it might be an issue with the amount of RAM I give the guest OS - I've tried from 256 MB to 768 MB - the pause is the same :( Any help or anything I can look at to figure this out - is greatly appreciated! Thanks ahead of time! Scot P.

Migrating to CentOS Directory Server
by Camron W. Fox 10 Nov '09

10 Nov '09

Alle, We currently are using OpenLDAP for our authentication needs for CentOS, Redhat and Solaris clients. We are considering migrating to CentOS DS, however, two of our LDAP replicas are on Solaris 10 machines (different physical location, as well as network). Is there a port of CentOS DS for Solaris 10? There's no point in us getting all wrapped up in migration testing if we can't field a server on the Solaris boxes. Best Regards, Camron -- Camron W.

2 TB limit on a samba share
by Steve Campbell 10 Nov '09

10 Nov '09

I'm running a server with Centos 3 that I have set up a smbfs share to a Buffalo LinkStation. The LS has 4 drives configured with RAID 5. Each disk has 1 TB capacity, so the resulting drive is approximately 2.7 TB. When doing a df, the result shows 2 TB, and no used blocks. Is there some setting I can change so that Centos sees and uses all 2.7 TB or does Centos 3 not support this? Steve Campbell

Centos 5.4 with Rage
by Steve Campbell 09 Nov '09

09 Nov '09

I'm trying to install a newly downloaded Centos 5.4 on an older Dell PowerEdge 300. Unfortunately, it came with one of those ATI Rage 2.0 video cards. The install screens show fine, and the initial screen does fine, but once it starts the "firstboot" section, where I'm supposed to select the firewall and such, I get two thirds of the top of the screen and a repeat of the top third on the bottom. Hence I don't get the bottom third where all of the selection buttons are. Anybody have a clue how to get around this? Steve Campbell
