* Cleanup for login success/failure sounds. Patch provided by MarkBrian Cameron2005-04-201-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 2005-04-19 Brian Cameron <brian.cameron@sun.com> * config/gdm.conf.in, daemon/gdm.[ch], daemon/slave.c, gui/gdmchooser.c, giu/gdmlogin.c: Cleanup for login success/failure sounds. Patch provided by Mark McLoughlin. Refer to bug #300136. * daemon/gdm.c: Fix FlexiServer commands so that all output for a single command is sent as a single call to gdm_connection_write or gdm_connection_printf rather than building commands and sending them out in pieces. Also use gdm_connection_printf rather than building so many temporary strings. Patch provided by for GDM_SUP_QUERY_LOGOUT_ACTION, but I reworked the patch so the same technique is used for all gdmflexiserver commands. Fixes bug #158799. Patch based on one provided by Raffaele Sandrini <rasa@gmx.ch> * gui/greeter/greeter_geometry.c, gui/greeter/greeter_item.h, gui/greeter/greeter_parser.c, docs/C/gdm.xml: Now support ratio scaling of SVG images. Docs weren't provided with the patch so I added some. Patch provided by. Fixes bug 159524. Patch provided by Vincent Untz <vincent@vuntz.net>. * gui/gdmlogin.c: Rearrange how the widgets are organized to make it look a bit better now that the message fields have sizes defined to avoid gdm2 resizing. Bit more of a fix for bug #117779. * README.install: Spell corrections and minor updates, now mention that running configure with the option --with-post-path=/usr/openwin/bin is recommended on Solaris. * MAINTAINERS, AUTHORS, NEWS, docs/C/gdm.xml, daemon/gdm.h: Fixed spelling, added contributors to AUTHORS file for patches made in the past few months. * docs/C/gdm.xml: Fixed bug 300138 by providing better sound docs in the a11y section. Fixes bug #300138. Patch provided by Andrew Case. * gui/gdmsetup.glade, gui/gdmsetup-strings.c: Removed strings "sdfg" and "asdf" since they can't be translated. Fixes bug #301211. * gui/gdmchooser.c: Removed needless comment.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thu Oct 16 09:13:48 2003 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com> * daemon/gdm.[ch], daemon/gdm-net.[ch]: Make the socket connection non-blocking and limit conversations to 20 requests. Also cut lines short at 4096.

Also add an option to short circuit the NFS test option to allow cookies on NFS (NeverPlaceCookiesOnNFS) * gui/greeter/greeter.c: Display dialog about not being able to load the theme even when not running in debug mode. So that missing/bad themes don't just look like greeter crashes (see rh #106189 for people getting confused by bad spec file) * config/gdm.conf.in: add the NeverPlaceCookiesOnNFS key * docs/C/gdm.xml: add info about NeverPlaceCookiesOnNFS

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Mon Aug 25 13:55:09 2003 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com> * daemon/gdm.h, daemon/auth.[ch], daemon/xdmcp.c, daemon/server.c: Server auth file now uses FamilyWild and we set up the different access stuff for the user auth file. Don't add FamilyInternet stuff to the xauth file if we start the server with "-nolisten tcp". The purging is done right and doesn't mistakenly whack entries we didn't add. * NEWS: update

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mon Aug 18 11:02:38 2003 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com> * daemon/slave.c, daemon/gdm.h, daemon/server.c, daemon/xdmcp.c: To prevent a possible DoS attack where an app might spit out too many warnings on stdout/stderr and thus fill up the users home dir (or when an app is buggy), the output of the session no longer goes directly into .xsession-errors but in fact through an internal pipe. This way we can just cap the file at some size (currently 80*2500 bytes, which should be long enough for actual use in debugging but it's short enough to prevent a DoS attack) * docs/C/gdm.xml: note about the above * daemon/cookie.c: skip the first 16megs of /dev/mem only on i386 * daemon/xdmcp.c, daemon/gdm.[ch], daemon/server.c, daemon/slave.c, daemon/cookie.c: some cleanup with the IGNORE_EINTR macro

Close xdmcp if enabled on all possible forks from the main daemon. Don't quit the main loop from the child handling callback as it's not needed * daemon/xdmcp.c: complain to the log file if limits are reached * daemon/slave.c: in the slave child handler, make sure the euid is set to 0 so that we can really kill things we want to kill
