Hi everyone i wish to add the Microsoft Active Directory schema from the sudo package to my samba4 ADC, from what i have researched this is what i should do, the Microsoft Active Directory schema and the instructions are from the sudo package, the sudo_user file is an example from the man page. ldbadd -H /etc/samba/private/sam.ldb \ schema.ActiveDirectory \ --option="dsdb:schema update allowed"=true does the schema need any modifications before i add it to samba? The following example allows users in group wheel to run any com...

...a server, then, it doesn't matter if I su - or sudo -s, I start a service (motion, if it matters), and when the service sends an email, it's from me, not from root, or the user the service runs as. I've dumped my environment, I've just dumped service's environment. I've set SUDO_USER to root, and SUDO_UID to 0, and restarted the service, and still no joy. My manager found this trick: echo "To: user help " | sendmail -t and the same thing happens. Anyone else run into this? No relevant google hits so far. mark

...cumented, libvirtd can be accessed only through root user or users from libvirtd usergroup. is there any tweak or possibility to access libvirt remotely through sudo user? or by using certificate? code snippet: #!/usr/bin/env python import sys import libvirt conn = libvirt.open('xen+ssh://sudo_user@xen_server')  <== Trying to establish connection to the remote xen using sudo user. if conn == None:     print('Failed to open connection to xen+ssh:xen_server')     exit(1) host = conn.getHostname() print('Hostname:'+host) conn.close() exit(0)

...builds and tests software in this context, has NO writable home directory, so all of the tests immediately fail in ugly ways. What am I missing here? Is there some way to pass a different $HOME (such as /tmp/ or /var/empty) prior to running the tests? Or specify a different user to run them as? ($SUDO_USER in our case). I tried the obvious "HOME=/tmp/ make tests", but that fails, as does other similar methods. Short of tricking the tree with LD_PRELOAD or similar hacks, what is the best way to solve this problem? Thanks in advance. David A. Desrosiers e: desrod at gnu-designs.com p: 860...

...the uid/gid the daemon itself will switch to before beginning communication with clients. These parameters can improve security. For example, using daemon via a restricted remote-shell connection, for security reasons, if we want whole rsync to be chrooted, we can now use : daemon chroot = /home/%SUDO_USER%/rsync/ daemon uid = %SUDO_UID% daemon gid = %SUDO_GID% With of course rsync being sudo-called by the restricted shell (to configure properly). We could already do this without this patch, using the "use chroot" parameter, but then the daemon itself is not chrooted and remains run by ro...
