MUUG Meeting, Jan 10, 7:30pm -- VPN over SSH, VM Install of Linux
by gedetil＠cs.umanitoba.ca 04 Jan '12

04 Jan '12

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, January 10. The meeting topic for this month is as follows: VPN over SSH, VM Install of Linux This month's meeting will start with the usual round-table discussion and RTFM topic, followed by two mini-topics. January's RTFM is brought to you by the letter "c" and Michael Doob, who will present cron(8) and the crontab(1) command. Next, Sean Cody will show us how he does VPN tunnelling using SSH and tunnel devices, and a few other ssh tricks like session mixing and ad-hoc port forwarding. Adam Thompson will then demonstrate installing CentOS 5.x and Ubuntu 11.10, and discuss their relative footprints, in a virtual environment. The group holds its general meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a MUUG member to attend. ********************************************************************** Please note our meeting location: The IBM offices, at 400 Ellice Ave. (between Edmonton and Kennedy). When you arrive, you will have to sign in at the reception desk, and then wait for someone to take you (in groups) to the meeting room. Please try to arrive by about 7:15pm, so the meeting can start promptly at 7:30pm. Don't be late, or you may not get in. (But don't come too early either, since security may not be there to let you in before 7:15 or so.) Non-members may be required to show photo ID at the security desk. Limited parking is available for free on the street, either on Ellice Ave. or on some of the intersecting streets. Indoor parking is also available nearby, at Portage Place, for $5.00 for the evening.

Anyone here use it and wouldn't mind the imposition of demo'ing it? Having used pine for well at least a decade the Maildir patch is largely umzaintained since I updated/maintained it back in 4.3. I keep hearing mutt is better and I'd like to see why and I'm sure others on this list would too. -- Sean (mobile)

a un*x admin tool paging by default
by Trevor Cordes 17 Dec '11

17 Dec '11

Am I the only one this ticks off (enough to make a bugzilla)? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=768601 Only the devil himself (or Windows people) would page output by default in an admin tool. The only other un*x app I've ever seen this with is postgres's interactive command line. Go to the bugzilla (if you have an account) and cc: yourself (equivalent to voting at RH bugzilla it would seem).

boot / fsck debug shells
by Trevor Cordes 14 Dec '11

14 Dec '11

Further to Gilbert's debug shell keyboard issues: I've been dealing with lots of md upgrade problems lately and non-boot scenarios. Not sure if you're seeing the same thing, but what's worked great for me is boot with kernel args: rdshell rddebug. Don't use the sushell or whatever it was you were mentioning as that forces your login. When the system can't boot due to md / fsck it will drop you in a rdshell (real crap shell) without any pw prompt. From there you can run mdadm commands, and probably fsck, to get your system bootable. In fact, once you get your / fs alive you can mount it to /sysroot and type "exit" and the system will boot as normal! Once in the live system you can run "dracut" (possibly with --force) to create a fixed/bootable rd. Assuming that's your problem. I've used this TONS lately when upgrading linux boxes from non-raid to md raid or small disks (raid) to bigger disks (raid). Any situation where your drive labels/uuids/majors/minors change can fark up your booting. This lets you fix it (without OS reinstall). Had a horrible time just this last week where I had booting md complain that sda3 and sda shared a md superblock and it wouldn't boot. Even with the above tools, I couldn't get it to boot without manual rdshell intervention until I revamped the whole disk so that there was a tiny bit of space at the very end of the disk, so sda had its own tiny area at the end (and I zeroed its superblock). Anyhow, just thought perhaps there may be some overlap in problems and I could save you some headache. Linux: the (nearly) only OS you can always fix and never need to reinstall (upgrade or wipe/install). Love it! (Note to others, this stuff may be RH/Fedora specific as I have no idea if other distros use dracut or provide rdshell.)
