So the current state of the repository can be termed as a Beta1 release. This is still available only via the Network Installer. Please also verify the text of the notice below and let mw know since I am going to send this out to several other lists: ============ BeleniX 0.8 Beta1 is now available with improvements (bug fixes and functionality) to the KDE4.3.1 desktop and other apps and new package additions. You need to use the Network Installer in order to install this 0.8 Beta1 Release.

It happened that I had not set a password on root and a friend came who wished to call - exec ("sudo touch /foo") from php. Now for this we needed to put www-data (apache's user) user under sudoers list for sudo to work from webserver. So carelessly, since I can sudo on a default Ubuntu install, I did something like this - ideamonk at rocksolid:/etc$ sudo chown 777 sudoers ideamonk at rocksolid:/etc$ vim sudoers ideamonk at rocksolid:/etc$ sudo ls sudo: /etc/sudoers is owned by uid 777, should be 0 Segmentation fault ideamonk at rocksolid:/etc$ sudo chmod 440 sudoers sudo: /etc/sudoers is owned by uid 777, should be 0 Segmentation fault Wooh! so now I can't do a sudo unless root comes and fixes permissions on /etc/sudoers back to normal. Since I haven't set a root password yet, I can't even do a su. That's where the GUI user manager in gnome came to use and we got rid of the problem. This case happens to be exclusive to distros that let user ignore root password. Are there any serious flaws in sudo? regards, Abhishek Mishra -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Since all my server/desktop installs have been home based as of yet, I haven't really run into any problems like this. However I do prefer CentOS for servers at least in the Linux world. Ubuntu for desktops since it has pretty good h/w support and stability compared to other distro's; Fedora is a real pain in the behind as always packages seem to be broken or not function properly. I am gona have a try at some proper Solaris servers soon, even though I have 4 running currently; however what I want to do is get the same out of Solaris as I am with Linux in the form of CentOS. It is purely possible, just need to get used to the filesystem and commands as no init.d, but that's ok am much more familiar with it now. The only thing that Solaris won't do very easily is TorrentFlux, Cacti, and Munin for network and system's analysis but that's ok as can use Linux for that. I think the issue about sudo is that if the user account becomes compromised then root gets compromised also..... however I am guessing the same philosophy applies to Solaris too?? --K From moinakg at belenix.org Fri Nov 6 10:02:05 2009 From: moinakg at belenix.org (Moinak Ghosh) Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2009 23:32:05 +0530 Subject: [belenix-discuss] Belenix 0.8 Beta 1 In-Reply-To: <71ccd65c09603e7b3d3ac726f1eb3e2f@www.belenix.org> References: <71ccd65c09603e7b3d3ac726f1eb3e2f@www.belenix.org> Message-ID: <46fe20470911061002w5e874bffnb901713909152718@mail.gmail.com> On Fri, Nov 6, 2009 at 2:31 PM, martti.hamunen at netikka.fi wrote: > I have now used two days 0.8 and I like it. > But I cannot find the solution for super-user (root) password. > Yes I can use "pfexec su", but I need the really password for root. > For ex.

However simple workaround is to set the root password: pfexec su - passwd root So root will both act as a role and an user. Kdesu will work properly.

You are running a newer build of OpenSolaris with a newer ZFS pool version which the BeleniX kernel version cannot handle. BeleniX 0.8 is at kernel build 114. What OpenSolaris build are you running ? BeleniX 0.8 will be updated to kernel build 124 in a few days. So you can try re-installing after that.
