Downloaded ISO and frugally installed/booted (Porteus style, save on exit)

I tried removing user puppy from both disk and wheel groups (using deluser puppy disk; deluser puppy wheel) ... logged out and in again and it isn't a member of either of those groups ... but it can still mount partitions by clicking on the desktop drive icons.

More preferably by default user "puppy" shouldn't be able to mount partitions, so if you're running a browser as puppy and a hacker breaks out of that then any unmounted partitions are inaccessible.

How can user puppy be prevented from mounting partitions (force having to Ctrl-Alt-Fn ... login as root and mount a drive, or run sudo to mount a drive)?

EDIT : Further investigation indicates that puppy cannot mount from the cli when it isn't a member of the disk group (mounting is only possible by clicking on the desktop drive icons).

Uncomment "chpupsocket $USER:$USER &" in /home/puppy/.config/openbox/autostart

Code:
# chpupsocket $USER:$USER &


(reboot required)

Btw, FYI, puppy can mount (by clicking drive icons) but has no write permissions

Slim is not enabled by default, first enable from "Start Slim" button on Whisker menu or from System > Start/Stop Slim display-manager
(enabling slim will set /etc/inittab to no-auto login, and no auto startx)
Then changing /etc/slim.conf will apply after reboot

Very good job Fred Smile
Very nice Desktop.

The first thing I noticed at start is that I need to run "reconnect" from peasyWifi to get an IP from my router the first time I enter the system. This doesn't seem as much of a problem but since it is a live CD it might matter.

For the previous release of StretchDog64 (in case Fred fix won't do it):
Maybe you have the same problem as me
While slim was running and asking me my username, in the background
/etc/profile executed startx as root (so I had the problem that while I was typing the desktp appeared ).
If this is the case you could try to comment out the "startx" entry in your /etc/profile file.


@ethplorer:

my menu.lst entry is like this :

Code:
title PorteusStretchDog EXIT: changes32
find --set-root --ignore-floppies /puppy_StretchDog64/live/initrd1.xz
kernel /puppy_StretchDog64/live/vmlinuz1 from=/puppy_StretchDog64 changes=EXIT:/puppy_StretchDog64/changes32.dat
initrd /puppy_StretchDog64/live/initrd1.xz


Btw, If anyone wants to try KODI without installing it :
kodi_2.3a17.1+dfsg1-3_amd64-deb_.squashfs https://1fichier.com/?5sl6u1qbfs
kodi_libs_addon_v001d_.squashfs https://1fichier.com/?gcn37ed4h6
maybe you'll also need this:
python279apt2sfs.squashfs https://1fichier.com/?ytqs6spvxt

Oh, strange, that shouldn't be like that (for me it connects right away)

@all For Info: I probably won't be very active replying in the next days because I have the flu (began yesterday, don't know how it goes in the next days)

@trister http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=850601#850601 did it for me, logs in as puppy fine now.

@fred. ditto (flu), started today. Feeling pretty lousy.

Not having cli permission to mount is good enough. Quite like still being able to mount from the desktop/gui as that relatively locks out cli breakins from doing something nasty like installing ransomware, but still being able to mount things as puppy from within the desktop environment. Mine mounts with rw permissions after a 'puppy' user desktop drive icon is clicked !!! That's great assuming it continues to work that way as more like running as root in feel, but with the ability to lock down partition access in the event of a hackers browser breakout.

I've adopted jwm as the wm and have set left click of the clock to be the MENU (right mouse click clock to showdesktop).

Not sure why the firewall isn't working under user puppy (shows as green when logged in as root, but under puppy I can't seem to turn it on).

This sounds like a timing issue.

Look at the script /etc/rc.d/rc.nework. PWF makes two tries (line 19) with a 5 second pause between (line 23). Each try is controlled by the -t and -T options (line 21).

Maybe increasing some of these will help.

If you watch the boot messages, there should be a line near the end for "udhcpc". Do you see it?

Just want to mention that there is a patch for Debian Stretch for the WPA2 Krack attack. This puts it ahead of many other distros.

Yes, thanks !
So to upgrade to patched wpasupplicant on StretchDog:
Code:
apt-get update
apt-get install wpasupplicant

Open up the iso file(with a click) and read the readme file inside.
Once you get a Porteus install i.e. into a folder named 'live' on hard drive to work
you can then do a full install to an empty partition .

PostPosted: Tue 17 Oct 2017, 15:25    Post subject: pfind 6.3  
I was able to use the most recent version of pfind 6.3
(it needs a recent version of pfilesearch as well so I put it inside the package)
and I made a debian package so others can try it.

Available:
pfind_6.3_all.deb
Size: 28k
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7JZA8XWblrSQVJ6d0djdmtPZUU
--------------------------------------------------------------------

I added a file --->

/usr/local/bin/defaultfilemanager and pointed it to thunar.

'Open location' feature will use it.

maybe you'll also need this:
python279apt2sfs.squashfs https://1fichier.com/?ytqs6spvxt


while it does work as it starts to read the vmlinuz and initrd, it suddenly stops telling that it needs Porteus that it has to be in the /puppy_StretchDog64/live/Porteus <--- not sure what it meant actually. Anything else i need to do?
