Hi, I need to add one line to /etc/securetty, say it needs to be ttyS1. Do not add it if ttyS1 already exists in file /etc/securetty. How to achieve this using puppet module in puppet 2.5? This file is different than the other examples using augeas, this one only has value per line, not name-val pair. Thanks, Hai -- You received this mess...

augeas now supports securetty. This resolves a failure when securetty isn't present in the guest.

I installed xen 3.3.0 on a etch box from sources. I just modified the standard kernel cause of some hardware drivers. I installed xen-tools from backports (3.9-3~bpo40+1). To create a domU ist not the problem. I can connect via ssh and everything works fine. But when i start a domU with "xm create host.example.tld.cfg -c" to login to console from domU it hangs after the message

...security Problem the administrator could set an option for ssh and sshd like LockDownSharedSecret to a random password and share it with other Trustworthy Administrators, who are involved in fixing the problem. My ideas how to use this shared secret: How is this different to configuring /etc/securetty and tunnelling Telnet over SSH Port Forwarding which I don't recommend BTW? -- Regards, Christian Heinrich http://cmlh.id.au/contact

...for a remote user (a vendor sysadmin to install 3d party software we've purchased). Of course I'm a bit skittish about allowing root access to this. Is there a way to configure vnc so that root cannot log in through it...? Or do I have to use some other utility to deny root access (e.g., securetty). Thanks, folks. -- War is a failure of the imagination. --William Blake

I found, under a 64-bit CentOS 5 workstation install, it is possible to modify /etc/inittab and add a couple of lines to prevent root from logging into the console. I found, under a 64-bit RHEL 5 server install, adding the same two lines completely breaks the OS, to the point that a reboot after the lines are added, the OS brings you to a fsck-like prompt, and other things break, too.

I'm using virt-v2v (0.8.3 currently) on EL6 to convert Xen guests to KVM. I see how virt-v2v converts any existing references to xvc0 and hvc0 serial console devices in /etc/inittab, /etc/securetty, and grub.conf. However, my Xen DomU grub.conf's don't have any mention of console= on the kernel lines, because the Xen DomU kernel defaults to using the correct xvc0 console. As a result, after conversion console messages don't go to the virsh console, although a getty does get star...

The following patches add RHEL 6 guest support to virt-v2v. This was actually quite a lot easier than I expected. * [PATCH 1/4] Update virt-v2v.conf for RHEL 6 virtio support * [PATCH 2/4] Check kudzu exists before attempting to disable it * [PATCH 3/4] Use dracut rather than mkinitrd if it's available * [PATCH 4/4] Properly convert RHEL 6 guest console
