( BTW, also if I try plain ssh:

Code: Select all

$ ssh rovisnet@rovis.org
...[basically same]...


)

Why? Have a look:

This hasn't happened yet. It just right now happened. I did notice some "hesitant" behavior by RBAC in my system. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, don't know.

Posting this just in case it doesn't go away...

ANOTHER (this one is second) NOTE AFTER POSTING: I forgot to post the link to it! Sorry!
It's in:
http://www.croatiafidelis.hr/foss/cap/c ... -hesitant/
http://www.croatiafidelis.hr/foss/cap/c ... 145_g0n.gz

Just posted. Minimally anonymized as per:
https://github.com/miroR/uncenz/blob/ma ... rl_repl.sh
(
or maybe better see the develop branch...
NOTE AFTER POSTING: Yes, this one I used:
https://github.com/miroR/uncenz/blob/de ... epl_log.sh
)

In the meantime, as can be read from that stretch of my syslog, I did the posting of:
The Test Sample for the (Imaginary or Not) Bug
http://www.croatiafidelis.hr/foss/cap/c ... mail-2.php

GnuPG signing a mail, this way:
GnuPG programs RBAC policies
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4662

and more. So it was kind of grsecurity (probably because some mistake of mine, maybe in setting up some policies) being "hesitant".

Also in the log can be seen the hesitancy with the GnuPG...

Got to rush now. It's important to have posted that log, and posted the hash of that log (here this time). It's more credible, isn't it, this way.

But I have to first work on the Wireshark (imaginary?) bug...

Regards!
