Yesterday sendmail-8.16.1 was added to slackware current, however it was not build with DNSSEC DANE

APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF', `-D_FFR_TLSA_DANE') should be added to the site.config.m4, see /doc/op/op.ps par. 6.8.

thereafter O DANE = true should be added to the sendmail_xx.mc in cf/cf

I thought the -D_FFR_TLSA_DANE was deprecated, and replaced by -DDANE. However DANE as a whole it is currently broken (see https://groups.google.com/d/topic/co...1zw/discussion)

Also worth adding -DTLS_EC to add EC support to STARTTLS.

Dear HQuest,
Dane works quite well, but the site.config was wrong. Here is the one I use, actually in version 8.16.0.41 (patched):
---------------------------------------------
APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF', `-DNETINET6')
APPENDDEF(`confMAPDEF', `-DNEWDB')
APPENDDEF(`confLIBS', `-lnsl -lssl -lcrypto -lsasl2 -lwrap -lm -ldb -lresolv')
APPENDDEF(`conf_libmilter_ENVDEF', `-DMILTER')
APPENDDEF(`conf_sendmail_ENVDEF', `-DMILTER')
APPENDDEF(`conf_libmilter_ENVDEF', `-D_FFR_MILTER_ROOT_UNSAFE ')
APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF', `-DBROKEN_PTHREAD_SLEEP')
APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF', `-DSTARTTLS -DSASL=2 -DTCPWRAPPERS -DNIS -DMAP_REGEX -DSOCKETMAP')
APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF', `-D_FFR_TLS_1')
APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF', `-D_FFR_TLSA_DANE2')dnl
-----------------------------------------------
You find all use full packages on http://talo.nl/talo/download/slackware/14.2/*

without the patch the last record should be
APPENDDEF(`confENVDEF', `-D_FFR_TLSA_DANE')dnl

There was a discussion on https://www.five-ten-sg.com/mapper/blog/DANE for version 8.16.0.29 but the patch did fit to 8.16.0.41 too.
The patch can not be used for 8.16.1 but it supports dane:ee 3.1.X. I use 3 1 1 , but you need a _25._tcp.your adress record.

It run for more then a year without problems.

talo,

Wasn't the Sendmail sent in retirement and for covering its job wasn't hired the younger Postfix?

Or I miss something?

It was silent for more then 2 years, but the last year they were very busy with updating (Claus Assman). He didn't agree with th site.config of slackware, and followed his advice, and got sendmail running with dane.
We have a DNSSEC record and an _25._tcp.record in DNS.

The reason I use sendmail is "it runs save and keeps all alien out". I am using sendmail for ca. 20 years, and DANE:EE for one year.

keyutils-1.6.2
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux...s-1.6.2.tar.gz

bifferos · 07-07-2020, 05:25 AM

Currently the generic kernel works well under many different virtualisers: Qemu, VirtualBox, VMWare, Parallels and HyperV. In the interests of including Xen (HVM + PV mode) in this list could we get the necessary kernel options added upstream? I've produced a howto [1] which includes tested steps for kernel recompilation. Whilst you can run on pure Xen (HVM) without PV drivers - albeit with reduced performance - this is not possible on Amazon: In that scenario you must add Xen guest support including Xen SCSI front-end drivers to even get your instance to boot.

I think we need as minimum:
CONFIG_XEN=y
CONFIG_PCI_XEN=y

Note that the above options could be added instead to the huge kernel, however that kernel won't boot on HyperV so you couldn't then use a single kernel for all virtualisers. Ultimately it would be nice to have a virt-specific kernel installed whenever setup detects it's running under a hypervisor (a bit like Alpine 'Virtual' version [2]). We could perhaps steal someone else's kernel config for that.

Code:

n/rsync-3.2.2-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.

This version breaks bwlimit=0 which is supposed to mean unlimited.

A patch is available here:
https://github.com/WayneD/rsync/comm...ffc7212c085db1

This breaks Alien Bob's mirror-slackware-current.sh script.

I've reverted back to 3.2.1

anon074 · 07-09-2020, 12:47 AM

There are i586 binaries in http://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackwa...xtra/sendmail/ for several days now. My kernel is 64-bit only and cannot run 32-bit binaries.

$ file /usr/sbin/sendmail
/usr/sbin/sendmail: setgid ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, stripped

Exclamation slackware64-current currently provides 32-bit sendmail binaries

Indeed there was something wrong. I tried it too, but no daemon was started.

I return to the sendmail-8.16.0.41 version which I build earlier.

  Speakup is included as modules which will need to be loaded manually,
  for now at least.

No worries, we can modprobe the relevant driver unconditionally as done in the attached daemon manager.

As an aside in Slint we save/restore the settings for each synthesizer independently, as users may use either a hard or a soft one. Also, some users have several hard synthesizers, that need different settings, generally done using key bindings.

The user run speakup-save when happy with his or her settings, then the daemon restore them at boot, in a similar fashion as rc.alsa.

Markus Wiesner · 07-11-2020, 04:38 AM

Short reminder for two little issues:

sysklogd: missing line break after rc.syslog start
mariadb: /etc/security/user_map.conf always overwritten on upgrade
