[opensuse] Samba & Windows 7 problem
by Anders Norrbring 20 Jun '11

20 Jun '11

Hi.. I have a huge problem with a Windows 7 workstation using file shares on my Samba server. When reading or writing files on a share, I almost never reach more than 1.5MB/sec over a gigabit connection. Hooking up an older Windows XP machine on the same share, copying the same files, I reach close to 65MB/sec. This tells me that the issue is Windows 7 talking to Samba, I've tried googling on the subject, but I don't find any relevant solutions.

[opensuse] SDFS / OpenDeDup / Java 1.7x. for openSUSE?
by Adam Tauno Williams 20 Jun '11

20 Jun '11

I'd like to test SDFS / OpenDedup on openSUSE 11.4 <http://www.opendedup.org/download> It isn't packaged for openSUSE, and I also can't find an OpenJDK of Java 1.7 for openSUSE? Anyone know where / if Java 1.7 is available for openSUSE somewhere? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

You don't need /usr on a separate partition anymore. I'm aware that a separate /usr is only optional. Personal I do not use a separate /usr partition. Nevertheless I know customers using such /usr partition to minimize downtime due e.g. file system problems. > I was first exposed to UNIX in 1988.

Hmmm, I'm not speaking about my personal system setup. On my own privat system I've /, /var, /tmp, /boot, and /home on different partitions, that is / and /boot on a 64G SSD and the rest on a 1TB SATA III. > The only directories I see as being beneficial on a separate > partition are the "tmp" directories which can fill a drive rather > quickly if not watched. Again, this is also you're personal setup just as my personal setup ... but IMHO we should like not to ignore other setups.

[opensuse] Mount on demand with automounter
by Anton Aylward 20 Jun '11

20 Jun '11

This is a question that is ultimately about the automounter. I have the automounter working with NFS. My laptop can access my home directory laptop:/home/anton/server symlinks to laptop:/mnt/server/anton which has a autofs NFS mount controlled by /etc/auto.mnt that points to server:/home/anton There are a few more things like that so I can access development and documents and CD/DVD images on the "server". That all works. What I'm trying for now is something 'local' and it doesn't seem to do what I expect. I created laptop:/etc/auto.master /home/anton /etc/auto.home-anton and in that had a line /Downloads -fstype=ext3 :/dev/vgmain/Downloads Starting the automounter produced a slew of error message and they were about all the other file systems I had mounted under /home/anton And that line didn't seem to work, though there were no error messages going on. I've googled some and all I find about "/home" is mounting it NFS from other machines. I understand that. I've done that in other contexts. That's not what I'm trying to do here. What am I missing? -- Dear Lord: Please make my words sweet and tender, for tomorrow I may have to eat them. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] pure-ftpd -> PAM -> pam_ldap
by Wolfgang Rosenauer 20 Jun '11

20 Jun '11

Hi, I used the following configuration in the past and migrating an old system to 11.4. But there I just don't get it to work anymore. pure-ftpd is started through xinetd: server_args = -E -A -l pam /etc/pam.d/pure-ftpd: #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_listfile.so item=user sense=deny file=/etc/ftpusers onerr=succeed auth sufficient pam_ldap.so auth required pam_shells.so #auth include common-auth account include common-account password include common-password session required pam_loginuid.so session include common-session nss_ldap and openldap apparently work correctly but when I try to log in over ftp it always fails. I can bind with the same user credentials to ldap (tested via ldapsearch). I get the following output in /var/log/messages: pure-ftpd: PAM audit_log_acct_message() failed: Operation not permitted pure-ftpd: (?@localhost) [WARNING] Authentication failed for user [xxx] The same setup worked with an earlier version of openSUSE without any issues. What can I do to debug this further or are there any ideas what's going wrong already?

[opensuse] postfix: how to route by sender?

I understand the /etc/postfix/transport - route by destination. But what if I want to by sender? What if I want "*@antonaylward,com" to use "smtp:[mail.antonaylward.com]" ? -- Everything that is really great and inspiring is created by the individual who can labor in freedom. -- Albert Einstein, in H.

[opensuse] Make it Stop!
by Randall R Schulz 19 Jun '11

19 Jun '11

Hi, I am configuring a new openSUSE 11.4 installation and there are some features that are annoying me and I'd like to dispense with them: - "If 'blah-blah-blah' is not a typo you can use command-not-found ..." - "Absolute path to 'ifconfig" is '/sbin/ifconfig', so running it ..." - Tooltips galore How might I get rid of these things?

[opensuse] Network Manager / KDE network applet not connecting to unsecured networks
by Myrosia Dzikovska 19 Jun '11

19 Jun '11

I am running OpenSuse 11.3 with KDE4, using iwl3945 wireless driver. Several times in the last couple of months the NetworkManager refused to connect to unsecured networks. It's not every time - for example, it is fine with my router at home when I put it in insecure mode. But it would refuse to work at critical points when I have no other ways to connect - e.g., in a hotel or at a conference. I can't tell if this is networkmanager or if this is the applet problem. What I see in the applet is that I choose the SSID to connect to, and it pops out a "connect" dialog, but it does not fill in that SSID - instead, it uses an SSID from some other network I used previously. I fix the SSID to the correct thing, but then the connection is not established, with no obvious error messages. Not sure how to debug this, especially given that it happens in places where I usually don't have the time to spend in debugging (like during conferences), nor an alternative connection to google for symptoms. But these are also the exact times when I really need the connection :( It happened to me today, and I am attaching my dmesg & network manager log. Neither shows anything that I can see as problematic that I can see. Is there more that I can do to figure this out? Myrosia
