[New: openFATE 310720] change order in distribution selection

Feature added by: Sirko Kemter (gnokii) Feature #310720, revision 1 Title: change order in distribution selection Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral Requested by: Sirko Kemter (gnokii) Description: When you use the search field in firefox for search packages you land in buildservice and all packages are showed. First it makes not really sense, when I come from a openSUSE system to show me fedora packages ;) But the worst thing is "ALL distributions" is on bottom so when I like to search for the actual openSUSE then I have to expand the selection an scroll. Because the expantion goes from "ALL distributiona" until to "SUSE SLE 11 SP1" and over that comes oS 11.1-11.3 and factory. So please do "ALL distributions" to the top, so that I have the actual distributions right under that and not ubuntu 6.06 -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310720

[New: openFATE 310747] radiotray in an opensuse repository
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 09 Nov '10

Feature added by: Andreas Gutowski (guddl) Feature #310747, revision 1 Title: radiotray in an opensuse repository Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral Package Wishlist: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral Requested by: Andreas Gutowski (guddl) Description: Radio Tray is an online radio streaming player that runs on a Linux system tray. Its goal is to have the minimum interface possible, making it very straightforward to use. Radio Tray is not a full featured music player, there are plenty of excellent music players already. However, there was a need for a simple application with minimal interface just to listen to online radios. And that's the sole purpose of Radio Tray. Radio Tray is Free Software, licensed under the GPL. Website: http://radiotray.sourceforge.net/ -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310747

[New: openFATE 310770] web interface for rsyslog (LogAnalyzer)

Feature added by: Carlo Strata (carlo_strata) Feature #310770, revision 1 Title: web interface for rsyslog (LogAnalyzer) Buildservice: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Carlo Strata (carlo_strata) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Hi Everyone, as you can see on my bug-form request (particularly from comment 5 on) https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=590333#c5 I think that a web interface to rsyslog server may be very useful for all of us (SLES included!). I just only want to store newer names and web sites (I don't know how long redirect runs): - phpLogCon became LogAnalyzer - home page is now http://loganalyzer.adiscon.com/ - download page is now http://loganalyzer.adiscon.com/downloads - Documentation and license (GPLed open source) http://loganalyzer.adiscon.com/doc/manual.html Last release is LogAnalyzer v3.0.3, Friday, October 29th, 2010 What do you think? Thank you, Carlo p.s.1. I'm still not an OBS user, but I think someone interested like me in LogAnalyzer it is or will be. p.s.2. There exists another famous web interface for syslog server: - is for syslog-ng http://www.balabit.com/network-security/syslog-ng/ - its name is LogZilla (was php-syslog-ng) http://nms.gdd.net/index.php/LogZilla http://www.logzilla.info/ http://code.google.com/p/php-syslog-ng/ (No longer used) the code was GPL, BUT needs a license to be run (free only for small syslog traffic). So I don't suggest to adopt this. I surely prefer LogAnalyzer, GPL and free at all. Use Case: You could use it in your browser to control many devices (nework, industrial, ...)/computer/... activities and/or keep trace of (e.g.) login/logout, ... With this purpose for Windows Client I suggest to use simple, little, comprehensive and compliant 32/64 bit and support both old and newer Windows Event logs (Vista, 7, 2008, 2008-R2, ...). http://code.google.com/p/eventlog-to-syslog/ This program is written in C and provides a method of sending Windows Eventlog events to a syslog server. It works with the new Windows Events service found in Vista and Server 2008 and can be compiled for both 32 and 64-bit environments. Designed to keep up with very busy servers, it is fast, light, and efficient. The program is designed to run as a windows service. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Simply for a better syslog view and management (very important for SLES too). Take a look to his screen on demo http://loganalyzer-demo.adiscon.com/ -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310770

[openFATE 307956] Improved tftp yast module
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 09 Nov '10

09 Nov '10

Feature added by: Birger Kollstrand (MrKane) Feature #307956, revision 1 Title: Improved tftp yast module openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Birger Kollstrand (mrkane) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Goal: To facilitate an even smoother setup of an installation server where clients can be installed wia ethernet. Suggested solution: The Yast tftp module or the yast Install server module is added a ppossibility to edit the pxelinux etherboot setup. For the first iteration text editing of the "default" config file in pxelinux.cfg is added. The second iteration will add the new builds loaded into the Installtion servers to the "default" config file in pxelinux.cfg and copy the initrd and the linux file to the correct location. I prefer to have them under separate directories under /srv/tftpboot. Sample configuration files can be obtained from me. Use Case: Facilitate easy setup of a complet installation server with distros delivered by ftp/http and the initial boot process handled through tftp. This removes the need for a separate boot disk, memory stick etc. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: It makes it way easier to setup a large environment where a number of machines needs to be installed with a SuSE version. It makes it really easy to test on different versions of openSUSE, SLES etc. especially when combined with autoyast. A complete re-installation is done in a few minutes. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307956
