System-config-authentication replacement

I am trying to set up AD authentication, based on the documentation provided here - http://www.redhat.com/resourcelibrary/reference-architectures/integrating-red-hat-enterprise-linux-6-with-active-directory . I need to be able to run the tool "system-config-authentication", but that tool does not seem to exist.
Is this part of an additional package, or is there another command to configure authentication?

You can install it using:
su - root
yum install authconfig-gtk[root@vm210 ~]# yum provides */system-config-authentication
Loaded plugins: security
authconfig-gtk-6.1.12-5.el6.x86_64 : Graphical tool for setting up authentication from network services
Repo : ol6_latest
Matched from:
Filename : /etc/pam.d/system-config-authentication
Filename : /etc/security/console.apps/system-config-authentication
Filename : /usr/bin/system-config-authentication
Filename : /usr/sbin/system-config-authentication

Why is help material missing in system-config-users ?

When I press the Help button or select Contents item on Help menu of the system-config-users main window, Mozilla Firefox starts displaying the plain text error message:
File Not Found
Firefox can't find the file at /usr/share/doc/system-config-users-1.2.51/index.html.
that is true, since the directory is empty. The same is true with most system-config apps. The original Red Hat packages do have help files for all system-configs. Why are they missing in OEL-5? Oracle claims that OEL is fully compatible with RHEL. The help material, eg. User Manager, is copyrighted by Red Hat, but it can be distributed subject to the terms and conditions in the Open Publication License. If it didn't suite Oracle needs, then Oracle had to find another solution (eg. writing its own short help material). Leaving the help directory empty without any explanation and just let a user wondering what the hell is happening, is irresponsible. Anyway it's one of the things that end users are least willing to tolerate at all.

I am not a lawyer. I am not in the inner circle. Any resemblance between my options and those of my employer are due entirely to the good fortune of my employer.
This is just my reading of the situation.
The OPL does not repeat the GPL words; OPL is a legal premise where GPL has been proven valid in several world courts. Maybe OPL is "just as good", maybe not. So the licensed docs had to come out of OEL first, even before replacement docs were ready. Probably a "must come out NOW" kind of executive decision from the Legal Department.
I know this post doesn't replace the missing documentation, but I hope it may help understand the omission.

System-config-printer

Hello,
my system will not upgrade because of problems with the package system-config-printer.
Here is the message I get:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)

What should I do? Remove the files that cannot be replaced because already existing or is there another way?
Thanks

Same issue here.
pacman reports that the files aren't owned by a package.
Around the mtime of each of the files I had installed some printer related packages (gutenprint, ghostscript, etc.). pacman.log excerpt included.

System-config-firewall

How to install : system-config-firewall in : Oracle Linux Server release 5.8 x86_64 ?
Because :
yum install system-config-firewall
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security
This system is not registered with ULN.
ULN support will be disabled.
Setting up Install Process
No package system-config-firewall available.
Nothing to do
Thank's

The wget utility does not replace any existing file unless you use the --output parameter.
It's probably easier to simply delete the existing file:
<pre>
rm -rf /etc/yum.repos.d/etc/public-yum-el5.repo
wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-el5.repo
</pre>
It is not necessary to edit the file and to enable any channels to apply system updates and install additional packages. The el5_latest repository is enabled by default and that's all you need to have enabled. And eventually ol5_UEK_latest if you use the UEK 2 kernel. On March 22, 2012 Oracle included updates and errata for free.
If the OP does not want to install any system updates and remain at the distribution level (s)he needs to enable only ol5_u8_base.

How do I install a new system file to replace the damaged one

I am tring to repair the permissions on my computer and am getting all of these types of errors. Computer is dragging. I reinstalled my operating system and this is what is happening. Any suggestions. Happening on my desk top I Mac and on my Mac Book. I did google search and Error 23 is "These errors indicate that the Mac tried to access one of the standard routines in the system file and couldn't find it. In all probability, that means you have a corrupted system file. Try installing a new system file to replace the damaged one."

Any suggestions?

I would apply or reapply the 10.6.8. Combo Update from Safe Boot (hold Shift down at startup -- give it much more time to boot than usual and leave it in SB for a few minutes before doing anything.)

I want to buy a Beats Remotetalk replacement cable. I am in Australia and Apple Aus store does not them but the US store does - but doesn't ship to Aus. I can no longer buy from Beats as it redirects to Apple. How do I buy an authentic replacement?

I am in Australia and I want to buy a replacement RemoteTalk cable for my Beats headphones.
previously I could buy these from the Beats store and have them shipped to Australia. Now I can only buy them from the Apple Store.
However, they are only stocked on the Apple US store and not on the Apple Aus store.
The Apple US store does not ship to Australia.
So how do I get an authentic replacement cable?

Try amazon:

I know there are loads of posts with same issue and most of them were related to proxy and connectivity .
This was case for me as well (few months back). Now the same error is back. But I've confirmed that FW ports and proxy are fine this time around.

Hi Lawrence ! - Many thanks for looking into this thread and replying. Appreciate your help.
Your reply ("SSL is enabled/configured, and the certificate being used is invalid
(or the cert does not exist or cannot be obtained), or the SSL connection could not be established.") is very helpful.
I've already tested CONTENT DOWNLOAD and it's working fine. WSUS Sync was also working fine for years with proxy server configured on port (8080) and WSUS server on port 80.
My Guess (this is my best guess ;)) is this something to do with Firewall or Proxy side configuration rather than WSUS. However, I'm not finding a way to prove this to proxy/firewall team. From their perspective all the required port communication open and
proxy server is also reachable. More over we're able to access internet (Microsoft Update Catalog site) over same port (8080).
Any other hints where I can prove them it's a sure shot problem from their side.
Thanks again !!

HT1365 system config chuck

I had trouble connecting to the internet. I made an appointment with apple store, took my imac in. they ran diagnostic and found no problems. but reformatted the disk for me using time machine. i brought it home and it worked. then when i put the mac to sleep and came backto using it, the internet was gone. so i called apple store and they said try deleting the system configuration folder under library - preferences - system config. i did that. then restarted and the internet worked. now i have to do this all the time to connect.
what should i do? please help.

Hello Hackintosh.
Basically i have connection problems. every time i put the imac to sleep or shut it down, when i start it back up, the web browser says, you are not connected to the internet, please connect to the network. the air port icon at the top shows full strength. but the browser says its not connected to the internet.
when i click on network diagnostic from with in the brower, it shows the ethernet is connected and the wifi has an ip address.
then i have to close everything, go into library > preferences > and delete the system configuration folder and restart. when i restart the airport icon is light gray. its not connected. i click and hover over the airport sign and it picks up my wifi connection. i give it a min before opening the browser.
when i open the browser, i have the same error message. you are not connected to the internet. then there is the network diagnostic button below the error message.
sometimes i have to restart multiple times (around 3-4) and again go back into the preferences folder and delete the system configuration folder. some times it doesnt work how many times i do this.
everything was working fine till i removed the ethernet connection to clean the desk. then all **** broke loose. this is getting annoying.
i booked an appointment with the apple store and they ran diagnostics and everything came back negative. it picked up the wifi in the store right away and they could browse. they connected an ethernet cable and it worked. they booted it up from the network menu for this.
then they booted my computer the normal way and they ran into the same problem. so they reformatted my hard disk and reintstalled OS X Lion.
now i have OS X Mountain Lion and i still have the same problems. cant be virus because when the hard disk was wiped clean, it would have wiped the virus out too......at least i think it would have.
could you help? i have extended warranty from best buy on this mac so i will take it to them to have a look aswell. but i want to see if i can fix this myself. dont feel like lugging this thing around everywhere.
hope to hear from you soon.

System-config-display, gnome-display-properties - inconsistent R5 U5 64bit

Hi all,
I have OEL Rel 5 U5 (64-bit) installed and running on an IBM x3200 which has Radeon integrated graphics, with a IBM ThinkVision LCD monitor (1280x1024 max)
Problem I have is eventhough system-config-display lets me select 1280x1024 I can't actually get it to switch. Upon log-off/log-in, reboot, restart, etc... it still returns to 1024x768 mode.
Running gnome-display-properties only gives me a choice of 1024x768, 800x600, or 640x480.
I've also tried xrandr and trying to force it to 1280x1024 but it tells me I only have the 3 choices given by gnome-display-properties.
My xorg.conf file is configured with 1280x1024, 1024x768, and 800x600 modes, so I'm baffled at where gnome-display-properties and xrandr are getting their mode choices...
Can anyone shed some light on this?

Based on Xorg log I'm guessing the monitor driver just will not support the higher res and apparently that's where 'gnome-display-properties' gets its info regardless of what I try in Xorg.conf.
I'll see if I can manipulate the monitor settings and see where that gets me...
I see the following in the log:

System-config-printer-gnome freezes when trying to "Add" a printer

I have the same issue that was discussed in the thread system-config-printer-gnome utility freezes when "adding" printer. Specifically, when I try to add a printer using system-config-printer gui, the window freezes and throws back the following code:
mechoid9@ordinateur:~$ system-config-printer

The solution mentioned was to use the CUPS web interface. This lets me add a printer (which is part of the solution), this is not the complete solution. I've used the utility before, and I'm comfortable with it, and I think that I should be able to use the gnome utility to add the printer if everything on my system is up to date (which it is, as of this posting). I would like to know why it doesn't work anymore (and I'm of the impression that it has something to do with how I've installed python on my system).
I've googled the issue, and perhaps I didn't look around thoroughly enough, but I couldn't find a solution. So if somebody knows where to look I'd be glad to look there.

I have the same problem. I noticed that it occured only after installing the following driver packages.
hpoj-0.91-16 hplip-3.11.3-1 net-snmp-5.6.1-1 foomatic-db-engine-4.0.6_20101215-1 foomatic-db-4.0.6_20101215-1
I did a workaround by installing the printer using the webinterface, removing the drivers again, setting the samba login details and then reinstalling the drivers.
But this problem should really be fixed.

Use system-wide Text replacement to superscript characters? 1st, 2nd, etc

I wanted to use the new text substitution in Snow Leopard to transform typed "1st" and "2nd's" into their 'correct' form with superscripted numerical suffixes. I tried to just easy do it by copying a corrected form out of Pages where I had created a proper "1st,", "2nd," and so on, but when I would paste them into the system prefs pane, they would just paste as regular numerals & letters instead of the superscripted variety.
I then thought to see if I could find the proper superscripted letters in the character viewer but came up empty. Does anyone know of a way to get this working? it's minor and all, but would be a nice addition.

1) yes, I know that
2) how would that help this situation any even if I hadn't? i didn't say "I can't get my text replacements to be accepted in any applications," I stated that I cannot find a way to get the Text System Prefs pane to accept supercripted numerical suffixes.
Sorry to be an *** about it, but everyone's always lambasting posters for not being clear enough or specific enough in what they're trying to do, and I was very clear about what I was asking and even in giving specifics on what i had done to try and remedy the situation myself.
I'm not asking how to get text replacement to work in apps, I'm asking how to get the system-wide text replacement to accept superscripted numerical suffixes in the first place. Maybe it's not possible? maybe it is and I'm missing something, but if so it's specific to the prefs pane, not other applications.

Do you want to skip the above packages(s) for this upgrade? [Y,n]
I try different mirror and again same warning, is it safe to skip this package?

Gnome: Trouble with system-config-printer

Hello all
I have trouble setting up my printers using system-config-printer in Gnome... I added some screenshots to the bottom of this post. When I try to add the Generic CUPS-PDF printer, the "Next" button is disabled and I am not allowed to continue. When I try to add the HP printer that is on my home network (as recognised by the config) the application throws some sort of runtime error (in terminal) and doesn't update the screen or allow me to continue.
Before moving to Arch a few weeks ago, I used Ubuntu 8.04, and it had a very different application for configuring printers (although it was also called system-config-printer). Preferably, I'd just get that application back for configuring printers, it was much more intuitive and above all it actually worked.
I would like to know how to solve my problem of not being able to add the printers I want and how to get the Ubuntu printer config on Arch if that is possible at all.
Thanks

@IceHand
Hmm.. It doesn't really make sense to me that I need a webbrowser to configure a printer, but I gave it a try. When I tried adding the CUPS-PDF printer, it asked me what brand it was in the second step. This can't be right. When I tried adding the HP printer that is on my network, it automatically selected the correct driver from a list, but when I chose to continue it asked me for a username and a password, and providing my own did not work. So this method failed for both printers. I would really love to get back the old configuration menu from Ubuntu at this point.
@dbb
The GTK theme is a personal modification of Fresh Dark that removes the Aurora style scrollbar, uses bigger icons and has nicer progress bars.
The font I use is Myriad Pro with slight hinting enabled.
The icon theme is my own mash-up of many tango-styled themes and a few custom icons and improved icons from other themes. You'll find icons there from gnome-colors, gnome-icon-theme, ubuntu-studio, and stuff found randomly on the internet and more. I'm not done perfectioning the theme though, but it's come a long way.
