Computers don't remember them, you have to do this; In /etc/openvpn, 1. edit the client.conf as follows; auth-user-pass /etc/openvpn/pass.txt 2. make pass.txt with; user-id password ※ Both are required for ipvanish-DE-Frankfurt-fra-c09.ovpn Now, openvpn will automatically load the user-id and password at startup.

ipvanish?

Are there any experts on how to get this to work under openSUSE? Specifically I'm running Leap_15.5 at the moment. I could use to guidance. I can use sudo to start openvpn, pass it a configuration file, userid/password and get it running. But am unable to get past that to get it started at boot/login.

where are the chromium user files?
by Daniel Bauer 16 Jun '24

16 Jun '24

Hi, I want to copy my "Chromium-things" to a laptop so that I don't have to enter bookmarks, passwords etc. manually. With firefox etc., this is an easy task, just copy ~/.mozilla/firefox But I can't find the Chromium files to copy. Where are they, what is their name? I rarely use chromium, but for some special tasks I accept googles spy-hunger and use it. So I'd like to have it on my laptop as well. But in it's successful effort to never tell a user what he is looking for and to make life as complicated as possible, unfortunately also in this regard, googles answers are wrong and lead to nowhere... I hope someone can help despite of googles struggle to hide information.

enrypting partions within encrypted lvm?
by Daniel Bauer 14 Jun '24

14 Jun '24

Hi, Once again I have a problem in understanding. I am setting up a new laptop, completely encrypted. I chose an LVM volume group in which I will have partions "/", "/home/" and "swap". I have encrypted the volume group, it shows in the partinioner as encrypted under "harddisks" (PV of group). Now when I add the said partitions to this volume group, Yast again asks me, if I want to encrypt them. This confuses me. Question: do I have to encrypt those partions, too, or are they already encrypted because of being in the encrypted volume group? Thanks for clarification!

New problem since dotsix.
by Bill Swisher 14 Jun '24

14 Jun '24

I normally, under 15.5, run a script to do updates which has this in it: date | tee ~/Downloads/lastupdate sudo zypper up | tee -a ~/Downloads/lastupdate And if there's changes I get a line saying: Continue? [y/n/v/...? shows all options] (y): At which point I simply press enter and it runs the update. Under 15.6 it gets to the "Continue" line as expected. But will not accept the enter, or a "y enter". It just sits there until I give it a ctrl-c. The file lastupdate shows it doesn't do anything too. If I enter "sudo zypper up" it will work.

Password for encrypted laptop asked twice + strange waiting time
by Daniel Bauer 14 Jun '24

14 Jun '24

Hello, So I intstalled OS 15.5 on a lenovo Laptop with a normal /boot/efi and an encrypted LVM including partitions /, /home and /swap Now when I start the laptop I am asked twice for the password, where the first one takes 1 Minute (!) until the Grub-Menu appears and then asks it a second time... Something is wrong. But what? I appears the Logo of Lenovo in the middle of the screen and in the left upper corner: Welcome to GRUB! Enter passphrase for hd0, gpt2 (long number): I enter the passphrase (there is no feedback, the cursor doesn't move) After htting enter, it says "Attempting to decrypt master key" This takes a full minute. Then the usual Opensuse Grub Menu appears, I chose to start OS 15.5 and again am asked Please enter passphrase for disk NAME (cr_...part..): (This is the kind of prompt I am used to, it has feedback for characters entered (*) and immediately after hitting enter the boot process starts.) - What is that first passphrase question for? - Why does it appear? (I have never seen that and have installed don't know how many PC's and Laptops) - How can I can get rid of it? Thanks for your help!

Access to S3 storage
by Vojtěch Zeisek 11 Jun '24

11 Jun '24

Hi, what do You use to work with S3 storages (custom Ceph provider, no Amazon)? So far I experimented with s3cmd and aws-cli for download/upload and bucket manipulation; s3fs to browse content of S3 storage (FUSE mount); and rclone and duplicity for backups. Everything works, but it would be nice to have some GUI tool for buckets and data manipulation. Rclone web UI is close, but the best would be some "standard" desktop application (support in e.g. Dolphin). Did anyone find anything usable? Among GUI apps I found only FileZilla Pro, and some abandoned projects or projects without Linux version... Yours, V. -- Vojtěch Zeisek https://trapa.cz/ Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/
