I'll make sure to do so next week. 19:03:11 ok, as always if you are new, feel free to chime in at any point with questions or comments here or in #fedora-admin/fedora-noc/fedora-apps. ;) 19:03:26 threebean: cool. good idea. When does that officially start? or has it already? 19:03:26 Ausmarton Fernandes here, not quite sure about the format of introduction 19:03:55 nirik: we'll announce which candidates are accepted next tuesday, and then the actual gig doesn't start until January I believe. 19:03:57 ausmarton: pretty free form. ;) welcome. Are you more interested in the sysadmin side of things? Or the application maintaining/development side? 19:04:48 threebean: sounds good. 19:05:41 ausmarton: in any case see us after the meeting in #fedora-admin and we can direct you further from there. ;) 19:05:42 * pingou (late) 19:06:06 #topic Applications status / discussion 19:06:17 any application news from the last few weeks or upcoming? 19:06:30 fedocal is moving slowly but surely toward a first release 19:06:31 note that we are going to be going back into freeze next tuesday it looks like. 19:06:35 * ianweller is here 19:06:49 what is OPW? 19:06:57 stupid slow typig 19:06:59 http://gnome.org/opw 19:07:17 two factor auth -- probably want to talk about that more in sysadmin update. 19:07:24 abadger1999: yeah. 19:07:36 upcoming for that, though, is we'll need to make some changes to how fas handles yubikey 19:07:49 we are going to be moving paste to production soon... hopefully before freeze. 19:08:00 I switched over bugz.fedoraproject.org/packagename from pkgdb to point to the packages app last Friday. We've gotten a few bug reports since then.. ;) 19:08:02 if anyone has any issues with paste.stg, please let us know. ;) 19:08:24 currently fas allows people to change their yubikeys whenever they want. We'll need to change that so yubikeys can't be changed without admin intervention. 19:08:50 abadger1999: yes. Is that something we can get in before the freeze? I guess we can always break for it. 19:08:51 abadger1999: change and set ? 19:09:25 pingou: the idea will be -- you can set a yubikey if there isn't one already. You won't be able to change it once set, though. 19:09:42 an admin can verify you and then remove the old key. 19:09:51 then you can set a new one. 19:09:59 ok 19:10:14 threebean: do the bugz things seem solveable? 19:11:00 nirik: yes :) 19:11:03 I'll also need to figure out how to code something that allows disabling both a yubikey and a google auth key. Currently we don't have a way to disable those and also disallow the user from setting a new one. 19:11:42 nirik: I'm not sure that I'll get both of those changes in before freeze. 19:11:48 abadger1999: whats the use case there? to prevent them from enrolling a new one? we can revoke/delete googleauth command line. 19:12:26 nirik: yeah -- say that Someone shows up in IRC tomorrow and claims that toshio's phone and yubikey were stolen. 19:12:40 nirik: the person can't be verified to be toshio to our satisfaction. 19:12:50 nirik: So we don't want to let them enroll a new key 19:13:01 right, but we wouldn't revoke either would we? 19:13:09 nirik: But to be safe, we also want to disable the old keys until we know whether they are or are not toshio. 19:13:40 possibly set the account admin locked? wouldn't that prevent it from being used until? 19:14:27 nirik: that's true. It's overkill (ie: they could otherwise continue to use things that just require a password) but it would work. 19:14:40 yeah. 19:14:54 anyhow, can ponder on it. 19:14:59 any more application news? 19:15:10 nirik: Oh, one further things -- we also want to tell people thatsingle-factor yubikey is going away. 19:15:24 abadger1999: even for website? 19:15:29 yeah. which is a shame, it's actually pretty handy. 19:15:36 arf 19:15:56 abadger1999: do we have a working pkgdb setup in stg? 19:16:10 I may be able to add twofactor yubikey (and maybe googleauth as well) in its place but... it's not as useful since single-factor password is still allowed there. 19:16:19 threebean: yep -- stg pkgdb should be working 19:16:22 abadger1999: I'm intending to complete more parts of our pkgdb->packages ticket and it'd be nice to test some more during freeze. 19:16:26 abadger1999: great :) 19:16:30 threebean: excellent. 19:16:54 abadger1999: right, unless we also restrict it to require 2factor if it's set, which seems like a penalty for being more secure. ;) 19:17:47 anyhow, all for pondering. 19:17:48 that's all I have for upcoming fas changes. 19:18:45 cool. 19:18:52 #topic Sysadmin status / discussion 19:19:07 so, big news is that we got our 2 factor auth working for sudo. ;) 19:19:14 hopefully it's working for everyone... 19:19:32 It's really cool, folks. 19:20:07 I did do a bit of poking and with rhel6.4's openssh we could match on things and require ssh key + factor if we wanted to. I don't know if we want to, but it's an option out there. 19:21:15 oh, I dropped the last of the smolt stuff off a cliff. I have a last db dump if we want to put it somewhere. 19:21:27 \o/ 19:21:54 a moment of silence for Smolt 19:22:00 Cheers 19:22:01 thanks to abadger1999 and puiterwijk for working on that. 19:22:02 \0/\o/\0/ 19:22:18 How long are we planning on running the smolt blackhole server? For a couple years? 19:22:28 We have an outage tomorrow morning to move our nfs stuff to vfiler... hopefully that will go smoothly. 19:22:41 abadger1999: yeah. I have a note to look at it in a year and see if it's still getting any hits. 19:23:27 we have an ongoing ticket about poor trac performance at hosted01/02. If anyone has ideas on that, please feel free to chime in with them 19:23:44 * nirik tries to think of other sysadmin stuff. Lots of small things. 19:24:38 anyhow, anything else on sysadmin stuff? 19:25:07 #topic Private Cloud status update / discussion 19:25:14 so, cloud rolls along. ;) 19:25:23 we have a number of instances in the euca side now... 19:25:32 the openstack side should be ready to hook up to ansible. 19:25:45 we still have: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure_private_cloud#Moving_to_.22production.22 19:26:26 we will keep plugging away at things and hopefully hash out the last stuff at fudcon we need to consider 'production' 19:27:05 any other cloudy thoughts? 19:27:20 not from me 19:27:31 skvidal has been working on getting copers all finished using the cloud backend. Should be pretty awesome. 19:27:46 copr 19:27:48 no 'e' 19:28:02 if I can make this json post to the frelling front end it would be even more awesome 19:28:09 but right now... I just yells at me :( 19:28:15 :( 19:28:21 anyhow, moving along... 19:28:24 #topic Upcoming Tasks/Items 19:28:36 info dump... 19:28:39 #info 2012-12-07 8am outage for vfiler moving. 19:28:40 #info 2012-12-10 drop inactive fi-apprentices 19:28:40 #info 2012-12-11 to 2013-01-08 F18 Final Freeze 19:28:40 #info 2012-12-20 colorado RH holiday lunch 19:28:40 #info 2012-12-24 to 2013-01-01 Red Hat Shutdown for holidays. 19:28:41 #info 2012-01-05 PHX2 outage. 19:28:42 #info 2013-01-08 F18 release. 19:28:44 #info 2013-01-18 to 2013-01-20 FUDCON Lawrence 19:28:46 #info 2013-01-29 f19 feature submission deadline. 19:28:53 anything else to schedule or note? 19:29:09 how many folks are going to be listening to their pagers during shutdown week? 19:29:53 I should be near home 19:29:57 I should be near home 19:30:07 * nirik is going to be around. 19:30:08 psych 19:30:18 nirik: oh and 1998 called and would like its notification devices back 19:30:22 note that nicely we are in freeze, so hopefully changes will be small 19:30:36 devices? 19:30:40 pagers? 19:30:42 I mean seriously 19:30:45 ah yeah. sorry. ;) 19:30:51 hey.
