wiki caching old content
by Rahul Sundaram 29 May '09

29 May '09

Hi, For the past few weeks, I have the problem with the wiki. It shows really old content (several weeks old) unless I login. I heard this was a side effect of some sort of caching mechanism but it shouldn't really be working this way. I can see this at for example, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_11_FAQ http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Easter_Eggs Login and you will see very different content. Rahul

My Introduction
by Sijis Aviles 28 May '09

28 May '09

Hey all. My name is Sijis Aviles and I'm a Systems Engineer living in Chicago, IL. I've been using linux for about 5 years now, and became an RHCE about a 1 1/2 years ago. I started with Debian and then moved to Fedora during the F7 release. My experiences are primarily with scripting and web technologies: PHP, Batch, VB, Bash, HTML/CSS and some Perl, C/C++. I'm currently learning Python. I love to learn and figure out how things work. Challenges are always fun and I'm not afraid to ask questions or for help. I think I'd like to participate with the web, noc or tools FIGs. I hope I can be of help and continue the Fedora tradition. Sijis

Redirect needed for docs.fp.o
by Paul W. Frields 27 May '09

27 May '09

Could I ask someone to set up a rewrite rule or a redirect that would send people from: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/f11preview to: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/f11 And from: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/f10preview to: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/f10 I'm not the expert but I think what we need is a rewrite, since there are a ton of subdirectories and files under there. The /f10 content is pre-existing, and essentially we're just sending people away from preview content to the final content. In the /f11 case it's the same, but I've copied the preview content and the Docs team will simply replace the preview content with the final content shortly for release day. We're doing this because QA noted, wisely, that the way things stand right now, they have to change some links in a release-day rain dance to make sure people are looking at the right content. Better that the link always point to a single location and that the content update. Our Docs crew is relatively new at this and out of an abundance of caution they chose to keep the preview docs separated. In the future everyone agreed there should be a procedure of treating these directories like branches, with no need for 'f12beta' or 'f12preview'. Eric Christensen will file a ticket to support this request, as soon as I get the CVS stuff done to support it. Did I mention how hard it is to use CVS now that I use git regularly? ;-) -- Paul W.

mobile phone + password = 2 factor auth?
by Seth Vidal 26 May '09

26 May '09

I was changing some settings with my mobile phone company and in order to change my password they made me use what looks a lot like 2 factor auth: something I know: my current password something I have: my phone I logged in with my current password - then they txt'd me a temporary password which I had to type in to verify I was me. Which got me to wondering - if most people have a mobile phone and/or have access to one - why couldn't we use that as the second factor for our auth? I can think of multiple ways to do it: 1. login to a web page 2. click on 'auth me' button 3. it sends you a txt msg 4. you input the password it sent you 5. you get a cert back that you use for auths for a set period of time (24 hours?) or 1. login to a webpage 2. download a key 3. it sends you a txt msg which contains a password for that key 4. the key + txt'd password allows you to login for a set period of time (24 hours?) Now, my question is - what is dangerous/silly about this? -sv

Problems with bugzilla and FAS account
by Michael Schwendt 23 May '09

23 May '09

As the fedoraproject aliases have trouble forwarding mail to GMX, I've changed my FAS account to use my Google Mail address. I've confirmed the change meanwhile. In bugzilla, however, my account still uses my GMX address. And I cannot change that. When I try to change it, I get: There is already an account with the login name mschwendt AT gmail.com. That looks as if the FAS sync script created a separate account for me. Right? Are there special requirements for FAS users? Do I need to change email addr in bugzilla _before_ changing it in FAS? Or what is necessary to get this right?
