Systemd and nm_dispatcher (on remote shares)

Hi,
On my laptop I'm using systemd and networkmanager, like many of you I suppose.
I have an NFS-server setup at home and one at work, so I would prefer to only connect to the NFS-server within my reach and not send out credentials into the wild when the other NFS-server is not around. I thought that nm_dispatcher is the perfect solution and I wrote a script that accomplishes this with the sysV initscripts.
Now I'm using systemd and my laptop won't shutdown anymore: it hangs at unmounting my disks.
I guess the nm_dispatcher-script to unmount the NFS-exports is never run, and so the NFS-exports are never unmounted.
Questions:
1. Is this the expected behaviour or is this a bug somewhere?
2. Can systemd do this natively? I know it is able to mount remote shares, but can you also specify that the mount should only be tried if connected to a specific SSID?
THX!

Sharepoints is not needed in your case, it's for controlling what "other" Isers can access.
Logging into the Remote one with the Remote one's User &PW gives you the samr rights as being there and logging onto it!

Finder cannot open files on remote shares

When browsing files and folders on remote shares (smb) via finder, some files and/or folders are greyed and cannot be opened.
Accessrights are correct, concerned files can be opened with uCommander by example.

I fixed my problem by installing Mavericks again. No need to fully restore.

After years without a problem, I am suddenly unable to remote share my work computer at home. I haven't done any updates recently and did not make any changes. Anyone have any thoughts?

After years without a problem, I am suddenly unable to remote share my work computer at home. I haven't done any updates recently and did not make any changes to the setup. It was working Monday night and stopped working Tuesday morning. I am at a loss for what could have happened. Anyone have any thoughts?

it sounds like your work changed something on their network. Try asking your IT people if they recently blocked any ports related to remote management or changed their firewall settings to block incoming connections.

Systemd and nfs exports [solved]

I recently switched my server over to systemd and now I cannot connect to the NFS share that it is exporting.
Here is the entry in the /etc/fstab on the server:
/dev/sdb1 /media/media ext4 defaults,noatime 0 1
/media/media /nfs4exports/media none rw,bind 0 0
Here is the /etc/systemd/system/media-media.mount :
[Unit]
Description=media
Wants=network.target rpc-statd.service
After=network.target rpc-statd.service
[Mount]
What=/media/media
Where=/nfs4exports/media
Type=nfs
StandardOutput=syslog
StandardError=syslog
When I connect it from my workstation, the mount command just hangs:
# mount -t nfs mars:/media /media/media

The solution is NOT to create this file at all. Apparently, exports from the server do not require them. If I remove it and reboot the server, I am able to connect from my workstation with no issues. For reference:

[SOLVED]systemd and make a camera visible GUI-wise in your filemanager

After reading a lot about systemd in the wiki and in this forum I understand there are different opionons about systemd. Anyway, I have a adapted all the changes to rc.conf leaving out only a few daemons to start there. So why not give systemd a try? If you dont want to read the full posting I finally got it to work, basically by reading carefully and checking the suggested tests in the systemd wiki. (loginctl)
As suggested by the wiki, I tried the systemd yesterday. Enabled via systemctl some services to "replace" my rc.conf daemons. I got what I thought everything to work, including autologin directly to my Xfce4 desktop. Everything except the digital camera.
When starting Arch traditionally via initscripts I immediately can see the camera in the filemanager (Nautilus) when the camera is attached via USB.
Some minutes later, after adding "init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" to the APPEND line in Syslinux and rebooting, my machine reboots
fine.But when connecting the camera again it is not visible graphically.
The camera is there because when using gphoto2 (the commandline) as root I can transfer pictures etc.
Even if I am no happy CLI user I can handle it when necessary. Handling pictures a graphical view of them is much easier...
As the wiki about systemd says one can try it out. I have not removed anything from the system and when starting Arch again, the initscript way, I can see the camera again in my filemanager, gthumb works again and pictures can be transferred to my machine.
In the wiki again, this time about digital cameras
Permission issues
Camera devices should be granted permission using ACLs. For this to work, users need to have consolekit or systemd running and the user session must be registered with them accordingly.
Check this using /usr/bin/ck-list-sessions to verify a value of "TRUE" should be returned for both the "active" and "is-local" fields:
$ ck-list-sessions | grep TRUE
active = TRUE
is-local = TRUE
ACL=Atlantic Container Line is what first comes into my mind. I have had some connections to transport business...I admit I had to google it to find the correct interpretation of this mumbo-jumbo.
The wiki also gives a "hint", if this is not working try to use the obsolete camera group and edit some udev rules.
Should not be necessary when it has worked before systemd and earlier experiences
But what is this about "Permission issues"? Here is my listings relative the wiki hints. All seems OK.. or why the heck are there two sessions??
[leif@krasaki ~]$ ck-list-sessions | grep TRUE
is-local = TRUE
active = TRUE
is-local = TRUE
[leif@krasaki ~]$ ck-list-sessions
Session1:
unix-user = '1000'
realname = '(null)'
seat = 'Seat1'
session-type = ''
active = FALSE
x11-display = ''
x11-display-device = ''
display-device = '/dev/tty1'
remote-host-name = ''
is-local = TRUE
on-since = '2012-10-24T07:12:56.499847Z'
login-session-id = '1'
idle-since-hint = '2012-10-24T07:13:26.994037Z'
Session2:
unix-user = '1000'
realname = '(null)'
seat = 'Seat1'
session-type = ''
active = TRUE
x11-display = ':0'
x11-display-device = '/dev/tty7'
display-device = '/dev/tty1'
remote-host-name = ''
is-local = TRUE
on-since = '2012-10-24T07:13:02.361157Z'
login-session-id = '1'
[leif@krasaki ~]$
As one can see, the ACTIVE values are here as the wiki says. But no camera. Those values are the same, wheter which way the machine is started. But 2 sessions??
Further reading in the systemd wiki article and consolekit vs systemd.logind gives a clue.
From the wiki:
In order to check the status of your user session, you can use loginctl. To see if your user session is properly set up, check if the following command contains Active=yes. All polkit actions like suspending the system or mounting external drives with Udisks should then work automatically.
So when started via systemd and running logintctl, it gives this surprising result. Does not matter wheter as normal user, nor as root....
[leif@krasaki ~]$ loginctl
SESSION UID USER SEAT
1 1000 leif seat0
1 sessions listed.
[leif@krasaki ~]$ loginctl show-session 1
Id=1
Timestamp=Wed, 24 Oct 2012 10:57:03 +0200
TimestampMonotonic=20040019

KillProcesses=no
IdleHint=yes
IdleSinceHint=1351069009642296
IdleSinceHintMonotonic=6664433
Name=leif
[leif@krasaki ~]$
Surprising? Should it not have been Active=Yes? So something is wrong in my settings although it had worked "before" starting using systemd..
OK, so far. Lost? Not yet. Double check again everything and I found the culprit, my ~/.bash_profile which had worked before seemed a bit different to what is suggested in the wiki. The old one, actually started 2 sessions, as also could be seen here above checking ck-list-sessions. That was the problem
Using a fresh edited ~/.bash_profile as suggested here, the camera is visible graphically
Finally, just for fun, start again the old initscipt way. Enabling daemon and so on. Still 2 sessions going on....Here it was the "/.xinitrc, which also had some old fashions and I removed the ck-launch-session from the exec line. So even here, now only 1 session..
Anyway, now the camera is visible, both starting with initscripts, naturally also some daemons active in rc.conf and by starting with systemd.
I rest my case and it seems systemd works with everything on my machine which is just a normal desktop used by an old man.
Thanks for reading...

Solved now! Boot times are as fast as posssible on my HDD I think. Only thing after uninstalling initscripst and initscripts-systemd was that locale was not set inspite of a correct /etc/locale.conf. I had to make /etc/profile.d/locale.sh with this content;
if [ -s /etc/locale.conf ]; then
. /etc/locale.conf
fi
export LANG LANGUAGE LC_CTYPE LC_NUMERIC LC_TIME LC_COLLATE
export LC_MONETARY LC_MESSAGES LC_PAPER LC_NAME LC_ADDRESS
export LC_TELEPHONE LC_MEASUREMENT LC_IDENTIFICATION

If I were to purchase the Apple Remote Desktop with Unlimited licenses, would I be able to install the client software on each of there computers/laptops and have them remote desktop into the server?

I have several friends and family who are looking for a central place to access information from ( Pictures, home movies etc ). So I am considering setting up an OSX Lion Server. There are some other things I can use it for as well.
Here is my question:
If I were to purchase the Apple Remote Desktop with Unlimited licenses, would I be able to install the client software on each of there computers/laptops and have them remote desktop into the server? Or would I have to install the Admin software on each? Do they intend it to be used strictly as one admin to access many clients?
I always could set up a network drive so they can log in and just see the folders they have created with space on the server I provide them. But I want them to be able to log an and actually use it as a Remote Desktop.
Thanks,
Eric

Dave,
Thanks for the feedback. I understand that ARD is meant for Remote Administration, but I was not sure if it could be used for my purpose as well. The reason I was looking to do it this was was because I read several articles online about security and performance issues with setting up VNC and activating screen sharing. Unless I am misunderstood.
As far as people's activities on the server, mostly it is going to be used as a place for them to store their media. I will only allow own person ( Who I trust and I know wont botch the server ), to run applications. Everyone else will be restricted to uploading and downloading content to their designated account on the server as well as a community share on the server.
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Eric

Not yet, but it seems to be the planned:
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/sy … imizations (point 10 in the second list)
see also http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/s … 04974.html
btw. I added a note about this in the wiki. I didn't want to remove it because there are a few people who don't use ConsoleKit anyway and won't care about this problem.

Systemd and plymouth

Hi.
I just installed pure systemd and is working ok... I'm using plymouth with that and... plymouth is working ok when booting but plymouth is not working when rebooting or shutingdown PC, why ?
I'm using nvidia drivers with v86d to get plymouth to work and I have added it to mkinitcpio.conf and rebuilded mkinitcpio. I have enabled gdm-plymouth.service to start gdm automatic...
any ideas why plymouth not working when rebooting ?
thanks,

Run e-tester from a server and have staff remotely update scripts

Can we run the floating e-tester from a server and have staff remotely access the server to run and update scripts instead of installing the client on everyone's workstation?

Original Question:
Can we run the floating e-tester from a server and have staff remotely access the server to run and update scripts instead of installing the client on everyone's workstation?
There are different alternatives to consider and different ways to answer the question.
1) You can run e-Tester with a floating license from a server and have people to use remote desktop to run and create scripts.
Pros:
* Multiple users can be updating scripts in the server at the same time.
* There is no need to install e-Tester in any other computer.
Cons:
* If the max number of floating licenses is reached no other person can open another instance of e-Tester.
* Having multiple people running scripts in the Job scheduler will create conflicts therefore is not recommended. Running multiple instances of e-Tester manually shouldn't cause problems, but it is a slow way to do regression testing. The job scheduler can run a script after another without user intervention. Teamwork can be affected if the default settings are changed by different users.
* Running thru remote desktop(or any other remote tool such as vnc) is slower than having etester in the computer. The refresh rate of the screen tends to be slower.
* If multiple users are using the server resources at the same time it can slow down the work of others. The server can run out of memory or it will be slow because the CPU running near max capacity.
2) You can run eTester with a node lock license from a server and have people to use remote desktop to run and create scripts.
Pros:
* Multiple users can be updating scripts in the server at the same time.
* There is no need to install eTester in any other computer.
* Only one license is required.
Cons:
* Having multiple people running scripts in the Job scheduler will create conflicts therefore is not recommended. Running multiple instances of etester manually shouldn't cause problems, but it is a slow way to do regression testing. The job scheduler can run a script after another without user intervention. Teamwork can be affected if the default settings are changed by different users.
* Running thru remote desktop(or any other remote tool such as vnc) is slower than having etester in the computer. The refresh rate of the screen tends to be slower.
* If multiple users are using the server resources at the same time it can slow down the work of others. The server can run out of memory or it will be slow because the CPU running near max capacity.
Notes:
1) Having eTester installed in each individual's computer will allow the person to run tests with no worries about conflicts of server resources or job schedules trying to start an etester instance. Installing etester is a one time thing that takes in general less than 10 minutes.
2) Instead of sharing the server resources you can share the place where the scripts reside. You can place the scripts in a central location and and configure etester to read the scripts from there. Instructions on how to do this should be in the knowledge base (if not please let me know)(Don't be lazy Zuriel, paste the link here).
3) You can consider to have eManager Enterprise if you want to have better organization of the scripts. In eManager Enterprise you can relate your test cases to your scripts, you can run the scripts from a central location, it is less limited for scheduling scripts than the JobScheduler, and it can be accessed from anywhere inside the company with a web browser (for security reasons requires username and password). eManager Enterprise doesn't have the ability to create or update scripts, it uses scripts that were created in eTester already.
eManager can also create schedules conflicts if multiple runs are attempted. There are ways to deal with this situation by having multiple computers to run the tests. (Please post in another thread if more information is necessary).
I hope this helps.

Zuriel

SGP311 KitKat - mounting remote shares

Hi, Prior to the KK update, I used ES as my file manager. This allowed me to manipulate/copy files on my NAS. Now that File Commander is the only FM that can manipulate files on the SD card, I have to copy onto internal storage using ES, then move to SD using Commander. When I quizzed Mobisystems on this, they pointed to the Z1 forum and told me to use Settings > Storage > Remote Shares to mount the shares, then Commander would be able to do the necessary. The problem is that there is no 'Remote Shares' option under Settings > Storage.... Does anyone with the KK update on SGP311 have this option (in which case a repair might fix it), or have Sony utterly cocked this update up? PS I use s/w that will only run on non-root devices.....

I've just spoken to Sony about this, with laughably abject results.
First, a clearer exposition of my problem:
- Under 4.3, I used ES File Explorer, since that has all the functionality I require, crucially including access to NFS/SMB shares
- Google removed the ability of 3rd-party apps to write to SD for the KitKat release
- Sony chose File Commander to be the bundled file manager for their 4.4.2 stock ROMs
- File Commander cannot independently access remote shares (some cloud services, yes, but not J Random NAS)
- I didn't update to KK until a new File Commander update came out claiming to give access to remote shares for Xperia KitKat devices
- On update to KK, I found that I was still only given the option of cloud services under the remote share tab
- Mobisystems support pointed me at this link on the Z2 forum, describing how to mount remote shares via 'Settings' > 'Storage' > 'Remote Shares'
- I pointed out to Mobisystems' support that there was no 'Remote Shares' under 'Settings' > 'Storage', which left them puzzled and unable to offer any further advice.
So, on to the call today. After explaining the situation:
- Well it's Google's fault you can't write to SD (yes, but it's your fault I can't see my NAS in the provided file manager)
- We don't write the app to do this (no, but you made a deliberate decision to include software that could, should and erroneously claims to support this)
- It's not our responsibility to provide such functionality (and yet, through storage settings, you provide this for other devices in the range.... And your technology partner certainly thought it was - and that you did)
- We're sorry you're sad (I'm not sad, I'm fuming)
It was obvious we were getting nowhere, so I asked how I could escalate the issue.
"You can't", I was flatly informed.
After to-ing and fro-ing, they said they would pass it on to the developers.
<sarcasm> Which I fully believe </sarcasm>
Shoddy work from Sony.

Remote share screen set up

I have an ADSL connection through a KPN Experia Box (router). I have connected my Airport Express to this router with an ethernet Cable. My MacBook an iMac run perfectly on the Airport Express. I see both computers and I can share the screens.
Now I would like to be able to do the same when I am not home, so from another place "take over" the screen of my iMac at home.
Can someone help me to set this up? I suppose that I first need to get acces to my router and from there to the Airport Express...? I am not very good in this networking business, please help...

First of all make sure your airport express is setup as a bridge and not set to share your public ip address.
Then the best way to do screen sharing is through SSH as SSH is very secure.
So login to your router's WebUI. This is done by putting its IP address into your browser.
eg http://192.168.2.1
Then check what dhcp pool your router is using. Then assign the mac you will designate as your server a static ip address that is outside the range of ip's the dhcp pool is using.
Then setup a port forwarding rule (NAT) to forward tcp port 22 to the ip of your mac.
Then in your macs sharing preferences turn on remote login and screen sharing.
Then you would need a dynamic domain address get one from http://dyndns.com
then setup a dyndns client on your mac (your router may have one so check that first)
so if you got dyndns domain name such as myfunkserver.thru-here.net
when you are away from home open your terminal and use the following login
ssh -L 5901:localhost:5900 [email protected]
once that connection is established open
/System/Libary/CoreServices/Screen Sharing.app
and use a host address of localhost:5901

I have an iPad and and iPhone. They share an iCloud and I want separate iCloud accounts. How do I create a new account without losing any information? I want to keep the original account on one device.

I have an iPad and an iPhone that share an iCloud account. I didn't realize when I got my iPad last year that when I signed up the iCloud on the device that it would share and use 5g of iCloud between the both of them. How do I unsync them and have two separate iCloud accounts? I don't care about sharing between them. When my kids put games on my iPad, I don't want them going on my phone. How do I create a new iCloud without losing any info on the other device?
