[Bug 66333] NFS Kernel Server does not install svcgssd

2006-10-15 Thread Shawn Church
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nfs-kernel-server

I recently upgraded my test server to edgy and my kerberos nfs mounts
stopped working. The problem is that rpc.svcgssd is not installed with
the edgy release of the nfs-kernel-server package.

I downloaded and compiled the source package and the svcgssd program is
being built but the package configuration is not installing it.  After
manually installing the binary and hacking the install script my mounts
worked fine.

In the process of tracking down the problem I came across this posting,
which may of been interest to you: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-
changes/2006/07/msg01863.html

** Affects: nfs-utils (Ubuntu)
 Importance: Undecided
 Status: Unconfirmed

[Bug 98928] Re: [feisty] NetworkManager forgets statically configured domain

2008-01-14 Thread Shawn Church
I found this bug (and bug 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/72341)  while 
researching a similar problem.  It turned out that dhclient was modifying 
resolv.conf every time my ISP connection was established.  I fixed this by 
modifying /etc/dhcp3/dhclient as follows (removing the domain and
host names from the "request" line):

=== modified file 'dhcp3/dhclient.conf'
--- a/dhcp3/dhclient.conf   2008-01-14 02:03:39 +

Before this change I could modify the domain name in network manager and see 
the changes in /etc/resolv.conf
along with a comment saying that the file was modified by network manager (DO 
NOT EDIT).  However when networking was started or restarted (i.e. 
/etc/init.d/networking restart or system boot) then resolv.conf would be 
overwritten,(including the comment line).  After the change shown above 
resolv.conf is not modified.

Hope this helps

[Bug 67404] Re: bind policy in 251-5.2 breaks the whole system

2006-10-29 Thread Shawn Church
Here is a complete description of this problem (I noticed this entry as
I was filing a bug report for the same problem,  so am just going to
paste it here instead):

The default installation of libnss-ldap is called by the udev and other
subsystems to resolve group names (i.e. udev rules with "GROUP=") before
the network is configured so libnss-ldap hangs on boot.

This problem is discussed in the following debian posts:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=375215,
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=375077, and
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=391167.

According to the above threads, the 'solution' devised to fix this
problem is to place a file that will override the default libnss-ldap
connection policy from hard to soft at the beginning of the rcS boot
sequence.  The edgy installation does include this via the rcS.d
/S03libnss-ldap script -- the only problem is when this script attempts
to create the lib/init/rw/libnss-ldap.bind_policy_soft file it fails
because the file system is read only at that point in the boot sequence.

Another problem I noted with the edgy distribution is that the
lib/init/rw/ directory is not created by the install script and must be
created manually.

This whole issue could be avoided if all of the nsswitch data came from
local files so libnss-ldap never gets called.  I was able to avoid the
udev problem by adding a missing 'nvram'  group that is referenced in
the udev rules but not created when edgy was installed (I did install
and upgrade Edgy so a fresh install may work).

Even with the additional group added the rcS.d/S49console-setup script
still hangs unless I manually change the connection policy in libnss-
ldap.conf to 'soft'.  I was not able to trace the reason for this
problem. I will try again ;ater and update this thread if I have any
luck.

For now I am keeping the 'soft' policy, this should not be a problem
since I am only using this on a small test network.

[Bug 236525] Re: gksu does not work properly

2010-05-20 Thread Shawn Church
I have the same problem.  When attempting an administrative task that
requires root privileges I get the gksu window about 75% of the time.
If I try again it usually works the second time.  After that I just use
the command line.
