GNS3 in Fedora 17
by Dwaraka Nath 25 Dec '12

25 Dec '12

Hello all, I'm using Fedora 17 KDE spin. I wanted to install GNS3 network simulator in it and thanks to Google, I found lot of tutorials to do it. But, is there any repository from which command line install for GNS3 can be performed? If not for official repos, are there any third party repos that support it? Correct me if I've missed something. Thanks, Dwaraka.

APAC Web FAD proposal -> Package maintainer's wishlist clean up
by Ankur Sinha 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

Hi folks, I propose a simple web-FAD to clean up the package maintainer's wishlist[1]. It shouldn't really take up more than an hour if we have a few people working on this. Q. What is the wishlist? A. It's a list of packages that fedora users would like to see in the fedora repositories. Unfortunately, the list is not well maintained and thus, gives inaccurate information to package maintainers. Q. Benefits of the clean up? A. Package maintainers will benefit from a well maintained wish-list. It's a good place to direct prospective package maintainers too, when they're looking for packages to get started with. Q. How much time will it take? A. Maybe an hour and a half, two at the most. Q. What do I need to carry? A. A connection to the interweb, a web browser, IRC client. Optional but recommended: Pizza, bacon, coffee, beer, $food, $music. Q. Why APAC specific? A. Folks from one region are more likely to be available at a certain time. Any one interested is more than welcome to join in, as always. :) Q. What do I need to know? A. Reading/writing/wiki editing. Use of package manager tools, bugzilla, packagedb. Should have FAS account to be able to edit wiki. Q. What do I need to do? A. Simple workflow: - Pick up a package listed in the wishlist - Check if it is already packaged, or if a review ticket has already been filed on bugzilla - Modify wiki page accordingly. Q. What can I learn during this FAD? A. Using yum/$package_manager; using bugzilla; package maintainers process; meet people, get to know your community folks, above all, *have fun*. Q. Future plans? A. See if anyone would like to take over the responsibility of maintaining the wish list. We could even repeat the FAD every month or two. I haven't thought of a time yet. APAC folks, are you up for it? Please reply with a date and time that is convenient to you. Sometime this week, Wednesday/Thursday would be nice. Please forward the e-mail to other APAC regional mailing lists. I'm cc'ing the Join and India lists. [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_maintainers_wishlist -- Thanks, Warm regards, Ankur: "FranciscoD" Please only print if necessary.

SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/dhclient from 'read, write' accesses on the file /run/mentohust.pid.

SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/dhclient from 'read, write' accesses on the file /run/mentohust.pid. ***** Plugin leaks (86.2 confidence) suggests ****************************** If you want to ignore dhclient trying to read write access the mentohust.pid file, because you believe it should not need this access. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to dontaudit this access. Do # grep /usr/sbin/dhclient /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -D -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp ***** Plugin catchall (14.7 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that dhclient should be allowed read write access on the mentohust.pid file by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep dhclient /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:var_run_t:s0 Target Objects /run/mentohust.pid [ file ] Source dhclient Source Path /usr/sbin/dhclient Port <Unknown> Host liuhongru Source RPM Packages dhclient-4.2.4-0.4.rc1.fc17.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.10.0-121.fc17.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Enforcing Host Name liuhongru Platform Linux liuhongru 3.3.4-5.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon May 7 17:29:34 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 9 First Seen Sat 01 Dec 2012 11:11:03 PM CST Last Seen Sun 02 Dec 2012 03:40:25 PM CST Local ID 2fc645e8-122f-450b-bc48-f71224129fb2 Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1354434025.641:136): avc: denied { read write } for pid=4838 comm="dhclient" path="/run/mentohust.pid" dev="tmpfs" ino=22954 scontext=unconfined_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:var_run_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1354434025.641:136): arch=x86_64 syscall=execve success=yes exit=0 a0=fb2920 a1=fb2c00 a2=fb1270 a3=10 items=0 ppid=4837 pid=4838 auid=1000 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 tty=pts8 ses=1 comm=dhclient exe=/usr/sbin/dhclient subj=unconfined_u:system_r:dhcpc_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: dhclient,dhcpc_t,var_run_t,file,read,write audit2allowunable to open /sys/fs/selinux/policy: Permission denied audit2allow -Runable to open /sys/fs/selinux/policy: Permission denied
