Support for multiple OpenVPN configurations with systemd

In Debian I just put the OpenVPN configurations in /etc/openvpn. This makes all of them start automatically at boot time.
In Arch I tried with
systemctl start [email protected]
Where FILENAME is the filename of a OpenVPN configuration in /etc/openvpn. This brings up OpenVPN but it also brings down all other OpenVPN configurations started this way.
How should I go about solving this, and getting a similar behaviour as in Debian?

With your mail it is not clear if you did this...
Yeah I'm not having an issue with OpenVPN. Those configurations work well. They also start with systemctl, BUT it's only possible to run one OpenVPN instance at a time through systemd on Arch Linux.
So my issue is Arch Linux or systemd specific.

  • Support for multiple pdf document with signature

    I have a question about signatures.
    Does the PDF specification support the combination of multiple pdf documents into one pdf document with the following constraint:
    - each individual pdf document has been signed (by an X.509 certificate),
    - the individual documents can come from different sources, so they have to be 'included' or merged into the final pdf,
    - the final pdf document should not change the signatures of the individual documents.
    So each part of the document should maintain the integrity of the individual components and the signature of the individual comnponents are still valid.
    Does the pdf specification support this feature?
    With kind regards,
    Ernst Jan

    What you want is called a PDF Package (or Portable Collection in the PDFRef) and is new in PDF 1.7. You can try it out with Acrobat 8.

  • [Non IE Regression] Support for full screen mode with multiple monitors

    This seems to be a regression with Flash Player v11.2.202.x (for all other browsers).
    With Internet Explorer it is still working.
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/890/cpsid_89050.html
    == Support for full screen mode with multiple monitors ==
    Full screen content will remain in full-screen on secondary monitors, allowing users to watch full-screen content while working on another display.
    Tested on Windows 7 x64 SP1 with:
    - Internet Explorer 9
    - Firefox Release, Beta, Aurora, Nightly
    - Opera 12 build 1116
    In bugbase.adobe.com I cannot choose v11.2.x

  • Feature request: Support for Multiple Libraries (like in iMovie)

    From the threads, I can tell this topic was raised by many for many years. I would like to propose support for multiple iPhoto libraries -- or more specifically, the ability to distribute media across different storage devices.
    There is a huge gap between my spacially limited MBP 250 GB SSD and my external 4 TB HDD. I am aware that I can juggle two separate libraries in iPhoto but it's just not practical and the moving of media between the libraries is not a simple drag and drop effort but involves exporting and importing with me having to clean up on one side or the other.
    iMovie has had support for several libraries for a long time presumably because the sheer size of media in the video realm gave the iMovie team little choice.
    I can't be the only one having this itch, right?

    Again, you need to clarify your terms
    Aperture can move master photos files around. With Aperture you can write additional metadata to the original file.
    You don't need multiple libraries to thematically arrange photos, though. A simple keywordign system will do that.
    So in Aperture I don't have to restart into different libraries?
    You can have all your photos in a sinble library with the master files stored off-disk easily. You can relocate them from disk to disk too. However, if you;re doing presentations that is probably not necessary if you generate good quality previews. I'd ask about these things on the Aperture forum for more.

  • Support for multiple libraries...?

    Hi, I have a question as how is the best way to manage y music libraries given my usage scenario.
    First let me set the context of what I have. I have over 35GB of ripped music, that resides in an external drive. Currently this music is available through my iTunes application, but it is NOT part of my lybrary (meaning I imported but did NOT copy it into the library). I do NOT want to have 35GB of music in my notebook's HD.
    My iTunes library is in my local HD (music folder). This is a small file that basically has the 'podcasts' and the 'artwork'.
    What do I want? I would love to keep all my music and videos on the external drive, and have my podcasts in my local HD. This way when I am on the road, I can update the podcasts, without having to carry with me all my music.
    This all works fine the way I have it now, except that every time I rip a new CD or buy music from the iTunes Store, they go to my local HD and not my external drive.
    Any ideas on how to work this out? I would love support for multiple libraries, but I don't thnks it's possible as far as I looked into it.
    Thanks SO much!

    This all works fine the way I have it now, except that every time I rip a new CD or buy music from the iTunes Store, they go to my local HD and not my external drive.
    Set the 'iTunes Music folder location' (Preferences>Advanced>General) to the music folder on your external.
    The next time you rip a CD or purchase music, it will be stored there.
    Note: the 'iTunes Music folder location' is not the folder where your music is, but the location where iTunes stores imported music (and added music when 'Copy files to.....' is checked)
    If you ran iTunes once with your external drive not attached/mounted, this location is reset to the internal drive.
    iTunes 7 has support for multiple libraries. Press and hold the Option-key on launching iTunes until a window pops up which asks you to choose a library or create a new one.
    Libra and iTunes Library Manager both work with iTunes 7 and older versions. They also save the preferences for every library you created.
    Hope this helps.

  • JNDI Lookup for multiple server instances with multiple cluster nodes

    Hi Experts,
    I need help with retreiving log files for multiple server instances with multiple cluster nodes. The system is Netweaver 7.01.
    There are 3 server instances all instances with 3 cluster nodes.
    There are EJB session beans deployed on them to retreive the log information for each server node.
    In the session bean there is a method:

    The application is working for multiple server instances with a single cluster node but not working for multiple cusltered environment.
    Anybody knows what should be changed to handle more cluster nodes?
    Thanks,
    Gergely

    Thanks for the response.
    I was afraid that it would be something like that although
    was hoping for
    something closer to the application pools we use with IIS to
    isolate sites
    and limit the impact one badly behaving one can have on
    another.

  • Support for multiple email addresses in struts

  • Stacking openvpn connections with systemd

    I have many openvpn servers,I am trying to stack multiple openvpn connections one though the other, that is I want tun1 to go through tun0. If I enter the commands in order and wait for the interfaces to come up before proceeding, it works. I switch servers, and order of servers, several times a day. I am trying to get this automated. As i can not risk having any data sent over non tunneled channels, I cannot automate much of my system until this is. My problem is that I pull the routing table from the servers that sends my traffic through the tunnel, if i
    systemctl start openvpn@(Server1Name)
    systemctl start openvpn@(Server2Name)
    this will start the Server2 before Server1 is connected and the tun0 interface is up, resulting in 2 interfaces but each connected directly to the Internet.Reading the man systemd.unit i found the "Before= and After=" but i am unsure of how to use these correctly as I switch servers(and ordering) multiple times a day.I have a script that can randomly select the server the next server for me. What i am really hoping for is a way to have systemd only start the next openvpn tunnel after the previous tun[n] interface is up. that is
    script picks next random server
    start next server
    if tun[n] up then n+=1
    loop until n = current paranoid level
    Why not just put this in a script and run it after startup? Because I need all traffic to go through these tunnels. and not having this at boot means that i cannot have systemd start any network applications(I have a lot). Also but not as important, is it is nice to have the Internet ready to go after boot up.

    You have your own answer
    tsr-nc wrote:Reading the man systemd.unit i found the "Before= and After="
    Yes, that way.
    copy the /usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected] to /etc/systemd/system, for each connection you have. and don't forget to name them with different name, like /etc/systemd/system/ovpn1.service, /etc/systemd/system/ovpn2.service, etc
    Edit every one of those files, setting both After and Requires putting them in order. and change the %i to be the name of the conf file.
    ...Not sure why you are doing such thing, I don't think that makes it more secure or anything.

  • Mailman v3 implementation of support for multiple domains

    Mailman has evolved to support listserve names for multiple domains (think VH for listserves). At what point can we see Apple roll this kind of management into the existing product? It would be fabulous to give VH clients the ability to have their own 'branded' listserve experience rather than one with our default domains
    Server Group -- please update Mailman when more pressing bug fixes are out of your way. Thank you!

    Alex,
    Thanks. I know that it can be done via the CLI, but once again we see where alterations done in the CLI will immediately require abandoning the SA as an admin tool. We're trying to encourage Apple to not create this paradox, or rather, to evolve the GUI admin toolset. I was recently at a Leopard Server tour seminar where the field engineer and I discussed this very feature. His comment to me was essentially 'many of the tools in the Server are based on open source projects, so you can simply download the latest update, compile it and configure it for the server ... but you won't be able to use the admin tools we provide." He's accurate, and if I was the only one admin'ing my machines, that might be a temporary solution to this particular small issue. But it immediately brings to mind the reflex question of 'so why did I buy Leopard server?
    This is a matter of Apple needing to provide sufficient resources to the Server group to grow the product. Whether that means some new hiring, or not pulling engineers off for other product lines, or a different management paradigm. We shouldn't purchase a server product that is touted as an enterprise-class solution when it may only have a bare framework for the offered toolsets. If growing the toolset to match what is already offered in the open source world (for that particular product) requires abandoning the server tools, then there's a bit of a vision problem with the Server product.
    Sorry, -- I didn't mean to get on a soap box. You and I are here to learn and help others. I know you aren't part of Apple any more than I am. I do hope Apple engineers are given some time to peruse this board and mine it for ideas, or gauge the effectiveness of their solutions based on the questions and solutions posed here.
    With Mailman 3 so far along in development (VH support was added in October), is Apple culling the very best from it for their user base (and adjusting the SA toolset accordingly)?

  • Adding support for multiple languages

    Hi all,
    I've a desktop application with multiple components in it containing .rc files.Now, I'd want to replicate these .rc files in such a way that I should be able to build and generate a localized build from my source.
    To explain more, as of now my release configuration would generate an English language build. Now, I'd want to do the same for all languages. Is there any tutorial on how to achieve this?
    For now, I'm thinking to add multiple build configurations and let different components point to specific resource directories.
    Lets say I have a folder res_english -> this will contain all english resources, res_japanese would contain all japan resources, like this I should have multiple folder each containing specific resources. CAn someone guide how to do this?
    Thanks!

  • Still no support for multiple users!!

    The only reason I recently updated to 5.0 is I was anxiously awaiting the addition of multi-user support to my Lenovo A10-70 tablet. I had bought it for my young daughter after she broke the screen on her Nexus. Well, without support for User Accounts, this tablet is useless to a parent. I cannot believe a large company like Lenovo does not offer this with its Android tablets!  Mark, Cleo, Serene, Lenovo admins - I hope you are reading this. I am also posting this on Amazon where I bought my tablet. Such a shame - great hardware but such poor software choices. P.S. Major issues with the new update to Android 5.0. WiFi does not stay connected. Many Google apps will not run, including Gmail! 

    Multi-user support is not common in tablets - so far, the ONLY tablet I have found with solid multi-user support is the Galaxy Tab/Note 4 (and even it has issues if you mis-configure it).  (Why do I refer to the Tab/Note 4?  Yes - the Note 4 is a phablet, and is typically sold via providers AND has a taller resolution than the Tab 4; those are, in fact, the ONLY differences between the Tab 4 and Note 4.  They have common features otherwise, and even their updates are released simultaneously.)  Lenovo even did the same thing with the A-series - compare their phablet models (G, GV, and H) with their wireless-only F models - you'll find so many commonalities it's not funny.  It's the phablets that are getting all the update love (especially when it comes to Lollipop); tablets (F subseries), not so much.Also, phablets are huge in Asia and India (look at sales of the G, GV, and H - the forums HERE are also rather obvious in those reporting successful updates - they are all from Asia or India); Lenovo doesn't push phablets in Europe or North America.  (I have no idea whether it is provider resistance or not.)  If you want solid multi-user support as a parent, look to Samsung (simply because they actually implemented it properly, which most tablet OEMs aren't going to be bothered with - it's not a knock specifically on Lenovo, because it's not specifically a Lenovo issue). On the Lollipop update issue; how many of us are still soldiering on with the same amount of storage that our tablets came with?  (I'm referring mainly to us F-subseries folks.)  The thing about the F subseries is that they all have small - if not downright miniscule - amounts of usable eMMC storage; out of the 8GB of eMMC storage the device has, only half that - 4GB - is usable from the start.  And every app you install, and assorted things that go along with it, eats into that.  Look at the size of the UPDATES that are being reported; S000023 alone is nearly 200MB.  The big combo updates - and if you're coming merely from S000020, which is the North American starting place for the F - you're talking nearly a gigabyte just to get to S000027 - do you have that much usable storage?  We may well have to bite the bullet and install medium or large (16GB/32GB) microSD cards in our tablets just because of the update-size issue.  (It's not like 16GB microSD cards are all that expensive, even retail - I see them at the local Best Buy for - at worst - $15 for SanDIsk Ultra - that's the high end brand of microSD card.)  We may be getting those "you have the latest version" due to available-space constraints - I've seen it happen on space-coinstrained WINDOWS PCs often enough.

    And the same message when trying to access https://www.abc.com from Google Chrome.
    "This is probably not the site you are looking for! You attempted to reach www.abc.com, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as abc.com. This may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious. An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially harmful) version of adgate.kfu.edu.sa. You should not proceed"
    so i know as this certficate is for cn=abc.com that is why we are getting such errors/status in ssl certficate.
    Now my question is
    1. Is is possible to  remove above errors doing some ssl configuration on ACE?
    2. OR we have to go for VerisgnWildcard Secure Site Pro Certificate  for CSR generated uisng cn =abc.com to be installed on ACE  and will be used  for all servers like  www.abc.com , a.abc.com etc..
    Thanks

    If you want to use the same VIP and port number for multiple FQDNs, then you will need to get a wildcard certificate.  Currently, if you enter www.abc.com in your browser, that is what the browser expects to see in the certificate.  And right now it won't beause your certificate is for abc.com.  You need a wildcard cert that will be for something like *.abc.com.
    Hope this helps,

  • Support for C 'n' Q with CG-revision Athlon 64

    Recently I bought a MSI K8T FSR motherboard and an Athlon 64 3000+, CG-revision. The new system is very stable and fast, the processor seems to be correctly identified, the only problem is Cool and Quiet isn't working.
    I've installed clean copy's of Windows XP and Windows 2000, installed all latest software (corecenter etc), biosses and drivers, configured power management in Windows and enabled the feature in the bios, installed the special processor driver/software but still the clockspeed seems to be locked. The AMD cpuinfo tool and the msi corecenter both report a constant clockspeed of 2000 Mhz when run in Windows 2000 and a constant speed of 1600Mhz when run in XP. Heavy benchmarking or let the pc idling for 15 minutes, clockspeeds won't change. The constant 1600 Mhz reading in Xp is especially starnge, according the to AMD whitepaper this isn't a speedstepping for the processor, it should be switching between 1000/1800/2000Mhz. (see http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/white_papers_and_tech_docs/30430.pdf , page 9, at column ADA3000AEP4AR)
    In the release notes, it says support for the CG-revision of the processor is added in the last bios version, but C 'n' Q for Cg is still to come?
    In a dutch forum, I'm not the only one encountering this problem, so I suspect it's not a standalone case.
    The other hardware in my system, just for the reference: zalman 7000A cooler, nexus 3000 psu, 40 GB maxtor harddisk, geforce 2 MX, 512 MB PC3200 Kingston mem.

    That worked!  I went to the AMD site you mentioned, more specifically, this page, and downloaded the last program on the bottom of the page.  After a restart, vwaa-la!  800 MHz!  Never thought I'd be so happy to see my new machine run slower than my old machine.  
    Anyway, it works now... thanks for the help ... hope you get yours working too.
