Happy New Year and more fun is in store for 2021

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody! 2020 has been a hell of a thing. Thankfully WLUG continues to endure and I don't see the fun ending anytime soon. I suspect that for the foreseeable future we'll still be virtual, but there will be a day we're all in the same room together.. Stay safe and I hope to see you all soon on a Jitsi call! Later, Tim. WLUG President -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Re: Charter internet - lots of drops for others?

by John Stoffel

Hi all, I'd like to report (if I didn't before) that having Charter come up and replace the existing DOCIS 3.1 modem with one that does DOCIS 3.2 seems to have cleaned up and fixed alot of the problems. Or at least when it does drop, it re-connects much much faster so it's less of a pain in the ass. We will see how it all works out once we're all back in school/work full time remote next week. Happy Holidays to you all! John

Samba and SELinux

by Chuck Anderson

I think you should not need samba_export_all_ro/rw if you set samba_share_t on the folder(s) you want to export (as long as the shared folders are not standard directories like /usr). It just makes things too permissive, negating some of the protection SELinux provides by allowing Samba to read/write every file on the system, not just the ones you've labelled samba_share_t. See: https://selinuxproject.org/page/SambaRecipes You may actually need a different fcontext pattern match to cover subdirectories: # semanage fcontext -a -t samba_share_t "/samba(/.*?)" # restorecon -R -v /samba On Sat, Dec 19, 2020 at 11:05:11PM -0500, Mher Mnatsakanyan via WLUG wrote: > I guess I asked this question too early.

Samba and SELinux

by Chuck Anderson

If you don't have audit2why, first install it: # yum install policycoreutils-python Then you can run this command and it should tell you why it was denied and propose way to fix it: # cat /var/log/audit/audit.log* | audit2why You can check these SELinux booleans and turn on the one(s) you need, perhaps samba_enable_home_dirs or samba_export_all_ro/rw. # getsebool -a|grep -i smb smbd_anon_write --> off # getsebool -a | grep -i samba samba_create_home_dirs --> off samba_domain_controller --> off samba_enable_home_dirs --> off samba_export_all_ro --> off samba_export_all_rw --> off samba_load_libgfapi --> off samba_portmapper --> off samba_run_unconfined --> off samba_share_fusefs --> off samba_share_nfs --> off sanlock_use_samba --> off tmpreaper_use_samba --> off use_samba_home_dirs --> off virt_use_samba --> off e.g. # setsebool -P samba_enable_home_dirs=on On Sat, Dec 19, 2020 at 10:19:24PM -0500, Mher Mnatsakanyan via WLUG wrote: > Hi everyone. > > I hope everything is well with all of you and yours. > > I have a question and need help please. > > I installed a Samba server on CentOS8 which works well. > > When I try to mount the share from that Samba server on the client side I > get a permission denied error.

I guess I asked this question too early. I figured this out running the following commands and the mount worked on the client side. # setsebool -P samba_export_all_ro=1 samba_export_all_rw=1 # semanage fcontext -a -t samba_share_t "/samba" # restorecon -v /samba Respectfully, Mher Mnatsakanyan On Sat, 19 Dec 2020 at 22:19, Mher Mnatsakanyan <mnatsmher(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi everyone. > > I hope everything is well with all of you and yours. > > I have a question and need help please. > > I installed a Samba server on CentOS8 which works well. > > When I try to mount the share from that Samba server on the client side I > get a permission denied error.

Re: Gamerzilla at GamingOnLinux

Hi everyone. I hope everything is well with all of you and yours. I have a question and need help please. I installed a Samba server on CentOS8 which works well. When I try to mount the share from that Samba server on the client side I get a permission denied error. When I set SELinux from Enforcing to Permissive mode it seems to be mounting and the permission denied error goes away. Any suggestions how I can do the same with SELinux enforcing mode? Thank you very much in advance.
