I used "fixdisktable-0.3" to fix the corrupted partition table and it finds a linux swap header and a linuxswap partition of length 4096 bytes at the beginning of /dev/hda1(I've first tried with the swap space as 4kb to see if it works :-( ) Is there any way to fix those "4096" bytes and recover my data in the windows partitions.Please someone do help me. yours, vijay -------------------------------------------------------------------------- LI is all for free speech, but this list was created for a purpose -- to help popularise Linux in India.

If you could send me the boot sector of the partition, then I might help you. But I need time for that. Contact me personally. Otherwise use resque image created by utilities like norton or so.

But i did not come across any other use of this except - a) Virtual hosting b) domain migration (this is what i think is similar to your's) c) NAT d) Logical subnets on the same physical net. You need IP Aliasing support enabled in the kernel for this. I wanted to know something more, but anyway, i'll find out. Thx again, Sharad.

I am having PIII/64MB/17GB with Win98 & linux 6.1 I am not able to use linux regularly since I am not able to go on the net.I have been watching similar problems on this list & accordingly I have tried out those options. But I donot get connected to the InterNet. Sometimes the connection redials if I use RHPPP Dialer. I have already edited the file /etc/ppp/options & put noauth. I have also checked wvdial.conf file & chap-secrets files. I have also tried Wvdial which does not work. Also I am not able to configure sound card. My sound card is Creative PCI128. I have tried soundcfg but it does not show hardware configuration for the sound card. It only gives option to start the Sound Scheme. Now I want to start using Linux more regularly & also want to try mailserver at my office also. I had also tried Kppp as suggested by Mr. Shridhar. It gets connected but Netscape does not get connected to any of the sites saying not available.

You can use flock to do the same. Another way is to use fcntl system call to lock an already open file. Refer to man pages of open, fcntl and flock. For your information file locking was introduced in Unix (obviously in Linux also) long back. Refer to Linux Programmers Guide. Good Luck. -Shashidhar On Wed, 1 Mar 2000, G A Abhay wrote: > Is there any lock function (in C) to lock files on a linux machine > Does the kernel provide such system calls at all? > This should prevent other processes from accessing the same file. > > abhay > > > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > LI is all for free speech, but this list was created for a purpose -- > to help popularise Linux in India.

Here is what is going to happen: 1. All subscriptions to linux-india and linux-india-digest will be moved to linux-india-help. Those who are currently subscribed to -digest will be subscribed to the linux-india-help list in digest mode. 2. majordomo@lists.linux-india.org will be changed to point to majordomo2@lists.linux-india.org 3. The old LI archives will be moved to the new linux-india-help archive. 4. For a week or so linux-india@lists.linux-india.org will be pointing to linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org. 5. At the end of the week linux-india@lists.linux-india.org will be shut down and replaced with a 'Moved' message. It is possible that some mails get lost in this process of moving between lists.

The XF86_SVGA server 3.3.6 from xfree86.org supports S3 Trio 3D/2x [8mb ram] card well. I have a chipset 86C368 and currently my card is being run as 86C362 [Trio 3D]. The procedure is simple, standard and the card DOES NOT HANG XF86Setup. The key is again the same, get the latest Xserver. The performance of the card+server with full screen display of movies [toggle display window of mtvp to max size. Keep the desktop size 1024x768 and cycle through to achieve 640x480 where the window more than nearly covers the entire screen and you can position it in such a way as to get feull display. Procedure : Fire up XF86Setup. Choose your keyboard/mouse/monitor [if you need to] Set up desired resolutions 1024x768, 800x600, 640x480 and others if you like. Select colourdepth as 24bpp. [Documentation says that the card can not supoport 32 bpp. In windows with drivers, it is impossible to achieve. So I uess it is really impossible to achieve 32 bpp. Will look into it and let you know] Go to the graphic card menu and choose Trio 3D. Enable option 'sw_cursor'. Indicate video ram = 8 MB [or what you have] Test. It works... Now I have to find the ways of - whether 32 bpp is supported. - whether the snow that is there, very slighly, when the windows rush around the desktop when a program is started or there is some unwindows animation on the screen, is a hardware fault? [Will compare with performance of card in windows] - finding the resolutions supported on the card. - configuring card for best output on Samtron 55e monitor. Currently running at 70 Hz vert-refresh rate. It can take 75 and I wish to push to that limit.

What I want to know is how > well does the onboard sound work with linux. I am being offered a chance to > change my S3 trio + yamaha opl3 Sax for an i810. Well, the graphics works wonderfully, and is very stable. The sound part is fuzzy though. I have an 810 at home, and several identical dell machines (based on 810) at office. On the dell boxes the sound is recognised as Ensonique audio PCI 64, and works fine. At home, its a plain 810, with a crystal semiconductor cs-4299 audio codec as front end. I have been trying to get this home box to sing for a while now. I have tried the alsa drivers (they have an 8x0 driver in cvs) almost every two/three days. But it doesn't work. Last two weeks or so, I have dived into the sources for alsa drivers and have zeroed on to the cause of the problem. Some how the codec ready bit is not set in the ICH global status register (offset 0x30 on 810, pci bus 0, device 31h, function 5, base address 2 - referred to as NABMBAR in intel 810 docs). I am still fighting with it. If you try reading any of the mixer registers, it just freezes the machine hard. I think the problem is somewhere in the power management part or loss of sync on the ac97 link coupling 810 and cs-4299. In short, your milage may vary. Before you swap, make sure that the sound card is recognised by sndconfig or whatever. There seems to be some variety in the 8x0 based boards as regards sound - I have seen plain 8x0 sound circuitry, ensonique audio pci 64 compatible (our dell boxes), creative soundblaster compatible (from a friend) sound stuff on i810 based boards. So tread carefully.

Segmentation fault, OK. Bus error? Not sure that they are one and the same. When the system reports 'segmentation fault' and 'bus error', I think two different events trigger these sequences.

The multi language thing is not very useful - most code anyway gets written in C/C++. However there are people who want to use lisp/guile/python/perl etc. It makes those people happy. The point of the component architecture really is modularization and code reuse. In other words, you don't have to relink your app when you modify code. Also the app doesn't need to know what it is linking with till runtime. The flaw with CORBA is, it doesn't support in process (dlopen type) componentization, which is required in a GUI environment. COM/XPCOM/KOM do this. -Arun -------------------------------------------------------------------------- LI is all for free speech, but this list was created for a purpose -- to help popularise Linux in India.

Startup the control center for Gnome and choose the same image from there. Every time you startup X, the Gnome image paints the backdrop Enlightenment had set.

SIGBUS happens under many circumstances. The one which you describe above is called unaligned fault in computer architecture literature. It's primary used on 64 bit architectures like Alpha, Sparc and IA-64 to reduce the extra memory reference. All these processors also provide hooks to the operating system to fix problem with legacy code which may not be properly aligned. On i386, there are no unaligned faults. It's handled by hardware. -Arun -------------------------------------------------------------------------- LI is all for free speech, but this list was created for a purpose -- to help popularise Linux in India.

There is a subtle difference. The address space of a process looks like: ----(shm, mmap etc)----text---data---brk--> <-- stack |---> kernel If the memory reference was on one of the addresses marked "-", you get a SIGSEGV (segmentation violation - it was outside all valid segments). However if the address was in a valid segment, but the fault could not be handled - writing to a readonly page, or jumping to a non executable page for example, you get a SIGBUS. -Arun -------------------------------------------------------------------------- LI is all for free speech, but this list was created for a purpose -- to help popularise Linux in India.

The main reason might because of wrong "type cast" conversions.

For example, the int data type should start Agreed. But IIRC on intel hardware (x86) unaligned accesses only cause a performance hit (processor/pipeline stalls) but no faults. Do the newer processors fault (bus error) when you do an unaligned access?? Another place I know where bus errors occur is on M68K based boxes (and may be powerpc??). When you try to access a memory location (physical bus address) that doesn't exist, it results in bus error. AFAIK neither of these things are applicable to intel x86.

Seems that u can install SuSE using YAST from the Disk 2 supplied in the box which allows custom install...how do u go about this custom install... Then, a second query...during the installation of the packages, the setuo tool never showed an option where u could select the packages u want....in the end, the setup hogged all of around 6.something MB...and the only option now seems to remove some of the apps...did i miss something or is there someway by which u can select the packages u want during install??

For example, if you make a 4 byte reference to address 2-5, the process needs to issue two 4 byte reads: 0-3, 4-7 and then extract the 4 bytes 2-5 and return the data.

It could be argued that Intel CPUs are actually better, because they have fewer registers to save. But they do have weaknesses - the TLB gets flushed on every context switch. There are better ways to do this. IA-64 uses much better techniques. -Arun -------------------------------------------------------------------------- LI is all for free speech, but this list was created for a purpose -- to help popularise Linux in India.

Sicne Monday I am wearing the badges to the company. Now many people here are looking at them and are getting much interested. I am really proud to be a linuxian. even today I wore teh linux T-shirt. Well let me ask a basic doubt. Can I know what is dhcp and how does it work? My comp is getting an address from dhcp server. But am able to connect to internet. how is that possible? I heard dhcp gives an address to a m/c when it boots up(m/c). it may be different every other day. can someone throw some light on this? regards sreeram -------------------------------------------------------------------------- LI is all for free speech, but this list was created for a purpose -- to help popularise Linux in India.

I need to monitor the status of the various Ethernet links. Apparently the statistics provided in /proc/net/dev are not very reliable. Here is what I did, I started an ftp transfer from one m/c to another. While it was going on, I pulled out the respective cable. After this, when I went back to check the statistics, it still showed packets being received and Tx. The errors count did NOT change. I understand that there are 2 ways of implementing TCP, namely, the Strong end and the Weak end Systems. Also, Linux implements the Weak end System where in if I have 2 or more cards and one of the cables is down, I can still receive packets addressed to that card thro the other cards that are up! Apparently this is not very helpful. Is there any way that I can prevent or change this ??! Any help in this regard will be truly appreciated.

Vibhu, it is slightly different from what you are thinking. Setup saving is OK. The problem, I think, was that GNOME was painting the desktop AFTER enlightenment.

The old mailing list's address (linux-india@lists.linux-india.org) will be pointing to linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org for a while. * Please remember to post all future questions to linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Don't forget to change your addressbook. * Subscribers to the linux-india-digest@lists.linux-india.org mailing list are now subscribed to the linux-india-help mailing list in digest mode. With majordomo2 there is no need for a seperate -digest mailing list. * Digests will now be sent out in MIME format (a previously much requested feature) I expect that this major move (I had to move over 1050 subscribers) might have a few bugs. If you find anything buggy or have questions please email me at thaths@aunet.org List Admin -- "If there were any justice, my face would be on a bunch of crappy merchandise" -- Homer J.

Is there any way that I can prevent or > change this ??! I've seen problems which may be related and fixes got posted to linux-kernel and rejected by the networking gurus. Specifically, when we tried to implement loopback networking using 2 NICs on the same machine, Linux didn't work properly. ARP on NIC1's IP address gave the MAC for NIC2! The patch was rejected because it was claimed that the above situation isn't very common and an extra check causes performance problem. I'm just guessing that your problem may be related. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Mar 2 22:53:00 2000 Received: from mail.cmil.com (unknown [216.46.224.153]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 73C14381C7 for ; Thu, 2 Mar 2000 22:52:57 -0800 (PST) Received: from benjy.cmil.com [202.54.14.30] by mail.cmil.com with ESMTP (SMTPD32-4.07) id A10992701F6; Fri, 03 Mar 2000 00:51:53 CST Message-Id: <4.3.0.20000303120802.00ab8c00@mail.cmil.com> X-Sender: benjamins@mail.cmil.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 4.3 Date: Fri, 03 Mar 2000 12:16:17 +0530 To: linux-india@lists.linux-india.org From: Benjamin Soans Subject: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed X-Archive-Number: 200003/9 You can also wait for the March issue of PC Quest along with which you will find JDK 1.2 Benjamin On Thu, Mar 02, 2000 at 12:59:28PM +0530, rajput g v be comp 56 wrote: > hi, > from where can i get the rpm package of java for linux? > or can i directly install it from the some magazine CD(like the way u > do in win** ) If you have the bandwidth, try getting Sun/Inprise JDK 1.2 for Linux. My experience with it was very positive - it includes a JIT compiler too.

You have some basic misconceptions here. (a) Compiler doesn't have to support a function. I haven't heard of any compiler that doesn't support a function present in a given library. You probably want to ask - does such a function exist ? (b) A process always owns all of its memory. For shared memory, the ownership is collective. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Mar 2 23:04:26 2000 Received: from gatekeeper.mahindrabt.com (unknown [202.54.20.162]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4817F38193 for ; Thu, 2 Mar 2000 23:03:45 -0800 (PST) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by gatekeeper.mahindrabt.com (8.9.3/8.8.6) id MAA19009 for ; Fri, 3 Mar 2000 12:31:09 +0530 Received: from mail.bom.mahindrabt.com(202.41.11.53) via SMTP by gatekeeper1.mahindrabt.com, id smtpda19001; Fri Mar 3 12:31:05 2000 Received: from mahindrabt.com ([10.2.4.115]) by mail.bom.mahindrabt.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA17669 for ; Fri, 3 Mar 2000 12:32:32 +0530 Message-ID: <38BF63F4.9C99DBB2@mahindrabt.com> Date: Fri, 03 Mar 2000 12:34:20 +0530 From: Rohit X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Sorry From Hari....Extremely sorry.

The point is that a friend faced the same problem on my machine. This PC is in IIT hostel-2 and about 13 logins have been created for wingmates. Last night when I was tinkering with the machine [as root, mind you :-D] for starting and probing X for Dr. Sharukh, one person complained of this happening. Then what I said, worked for him. Hope tumhara kaam bhi ho jayega. All the best. It is a small thing anyway.

Arun, probably the question is if there is a way to tell, for a process, whether some absolute location is owned by it or not. Or even this is an invalid question?

Do this, just check the default mouse as suggested by Linux during installation. Was yours different from default. It worked for me.

Complete directory structure will be there by the time your machine is up. The 'partitions' will not be there.. that is all.

Am I right? As for the CD, it is supposed to autoboot into installation mode. So that is OK. Probably you can choose to upgrade your system rather than reinstalling it; with no packages selected, to save time. > 6.

DOS/Windows connectivity means that you should be able to interface this machine with DOS/Windows/Netware machines over a network. may be as a server for files/prints.

I suppose if /root goes, then it should not matter much, unless you mean to say / instead of /root. AFAIK /root is mostly empty in all the major distros I know of. The simplest solution is to just remake the /root and may be copy whatever is there in /etc/skel to /root. That should be enough. Regards, Kedar.

Or even this is an > invalid question? It is. Because a process owns all of its virtual memory. If the question is - will there be a core dump if a process accesses a particular memory location, the answer can vary over time. So unless you mlock(2) your whole memory, you can't trust the answer. A good approximation would be to catch SIGSEGV or SIGBUS in a signal handler and take appropriate action and continue from there. setjmp(3) and longjmp(3) can be your friends. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Mar 3 08:57:19 2000 Received: from c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com (c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com [24.0.69.165]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A276938173 for ; Fri, 3 Mar 2000 08:57:11 -0800 (PST) Received: (from adsharma@localhost) by c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id IAA05954 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Fri, 3 Mar 2000 08:57:11 -0800 Date: Fri, 3 Mar 2000 08:57:11 -0800 From: Arun Sharma To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Function in gcc Message-ID: <20000303085710.B5888@sharmas.dhs.org> References: <65256897.002CDBA3.00@surya.nse.co.in> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.6i In-Reply-To: <65256897.002CDBA3.00@surya.nse.co.in>; from asriniva@nse.co.in on Fri, Mar 03, 2000 at 01:39:56PM +0530 X-Archive-Number: 200003/43 On Fri, Mar 03, 2000 at 01:39:56PM +0530, asriniva@nse.co.in wrote: > Sorry Arun, > > thats what i want to ask. > What my problem is, i had a char ** and allocated memory for it. > But some how( i am debugging it, its a big program), when i try to free the > memory pointed by that, i am geeting Segment voilation. > That's why i want to be sure( before i free it), through some function whether > that memory is owned by me or not? Ah, now we're talking. You're probably trying to free memory that's already free. What you can do is to check if the value of the pointer is greater than brk(2). If it is, you're guaranteed to get a SIGSEGV. There are many tools available to solve such problems - purify is a commercial product which does it, but is not available for Linux. Electric fence is a free alternative written by Bruce Perens. Search freshmeat for "memory leak" and you'll find more. Another way to solve this is write your own system call, which calls verify_area on the range and returns a result. Wannabe kernel hackers, this could be a good exercise to get started :) -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Mar 3 08:58:16 2000 Received: from c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com (c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com [24.0.69.165]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C22CE38184 for ; Fri, 3 Mar 2000 08:58:14 -0800 (PST) Received: (from adsharma@localhost) by c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id IAA05972 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Fri, 3 Mar 2000 08:58:14 -0800 Date: Fri, 3 Mar 2000 08:58:14 -0800 From: Arun Sharma To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: using core file Message-ID: <20000303085814.C5888@sharmas.dhs.org> References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.6i In-Reply-To: ; from Sachin Shurpali (RBIN/DCA-NMP) on Fri, Mar 03, 2000 at 10:48:21AM +0100 X-Archive-Number: 200003/44 On Fri, Mar 03, 2000 at 10:48:21AM +0100, Sachin Shurpali (RBIN/DCA-NMP) wrote: > Hello, > > How to use core file(if it is used) for debugging. gdb a.out core -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Mar 3 09:21:56 2000 Received: from blr.vsnl.net.in (blr.vsnl.net.in [202.54.12.6]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 11F2A38189 for ; Fri, 3 Mar 2000 09:21:42 -0800 (PST) Received: from 2 ([210.212.195.58]) by blr.vsnl.net.in (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id WAA18318 for ; Fri, 3 Mar 2000 22:43:29 +0530 (IST) Message-ID: <000f01bf8535$2981da40$3ac3d4d2@2> From: "Arjun Prabhu K" To: Subject: Re: [LI] Cannot get LILO prompt and ...

The > older one was quite neat. The problem with the old naming was that linux-india was a very general name. The traffic flowing in the list was varied. And this tended to put some people off the list. Newbies were overwhelmed by the technical depth of some of the conversations here and the more experienced users were tired of answering the same questions (Sis graphics cards for example) over and over again. What we decided to do was to "partition" linux-india into sub groups with specialized areas. linux-india-general and linux-india-advocacy should now take care of general and PR issues. linux-india-help will be exclusively to answer installation / configuration questions. And linux-india-programmers should take care of highly technical programming issues. > Is this an end of linux-india era? No. It is merely a division. Thaths -- "Be patient, son.

There of course is a way to make it run with emacs20, but there seems to be a catch with that. Now, I would like to use gnus with emacs as the email client ( anyone other than manoj using here ?? ) As of now, I have customized emacs, vm and bbdb to the extreme ( thanks to Raj )and have made my life a lot easier. I would like to have the same sort of customization with gnus, emacs and bbdb. I am sure that must be possible !! Right Manoj ??? Can anybody here gimme tips as to customize gnus, emacs and bbdb as my email client ?? Manoj, can you send me your .gnus file ??? and suggest any more customizations I can do ?? The other query is a bit weird, but nevertheless :-) When I get a mail from someone, the mail id of that person should be compared with the mail ID's available in muh address book. And if the mail ID is not present in muh address book, then a default mail should be sent back to that mail ID. How can I accomplish this ?? procmail ?? I would like to expand this thing a little bit more, but for now I would like to try this out first !!

One more question I wanted to ask was that Is there something like a secure POP3 Server which has encryption inbuilt ?? I mean whatever data I send to a POP3 server should be encrypted to and fro !! Obviously, then I might need a POP3 Client which supports the protocol Or am I on the wrong path somewhere ?? BTW when I talk to a normal POP3 server, is it possible for a sniffer to get the data I might be transferring between the client and a server ( specifically password and all that ) Raj ??

TIA Regards - Syed> Khader Go to www.openssl.org and look for a program called stunnel or ssltunnel. That allows you to build a SSL connection between an SSL-enabled client and a non-SSL server. An alternative is to run ssh with port redirection (e.g. redirect local port 110 to port 110 of the server). Then make localhost your POP3 server and ssh will automatically transfer data between your machine and the remote server with encryption. Of course, this only works if you have ssh and a login on the remote server.

Obviously, then I might need a POP3 Client which supports the > protocol Or am I on the wrong path somewhere ?? True. That is why I don't think that you will find any server/client out there. Basically, this would mean that the client and server are dependent on each other, rendering the other pop clients unusable. The way to achieve what you want to do is via ssh. I run CVS via ssh (apart from logging in etc.). Read the docs for setup details. You need to enable sshd on the server. There are examples in the docs for fetchmail as well. > BTW when I talk to a normal POP3 server, is it possible for a sniffer to get > the data I might be transferring between the client > and a server ( specifically password and all that ) Raj ?? Oh yes... That is too easily done. Check out the site www.takedown.com for the details of how the notorious cracker Kevin Mitnick was caught. They had a special version of tcpdump to gather everything that Kevin ever typed. All passwords (cracked ones) are visible on the screen. The best way to enjoy (well, when I did, it felt as if I was watching a horror movie) is to telnet to kevin-on-demand.takedown.com ports 4001 onwards for Kevin's online sessions.

BTW >my ISP is Satyam Then you are jacked. Two months ago, Satyam was placed under a UDP (usenet death penalty) due to persistent and unchecked usenet spam originating from their ip space (by a hacker called HipCrime) since 1997. These attacks have crashed the rtfm.mit.edu server and trashed several newsgroups more than once, so all posts from satyam ip space were blocked. The UDP was lifted only after satyam blocked outgoing port 119 (NNTP) at their border routers and promised to deploy their own usenet server, and to allow access only through that. This means that till satyam sets up their own usenet server, you can't use a newsreader to access your news (even using a 3rd party news server).

He wrote one called rn, which later became trn, with the 't' standing for 'threaded'. This newsreader could thread newsgroup articles - ie, it could understand which article was a follow up on which, after looking at various headers. rn was named so because it improved upon readnews, a primitive news reader. With the kde guys' obsession of having a K interface to anything, they came up with krn. Larry later on wrote patch, a very popular tool among unix programmers, and perl, popular with the whole world. Among other newsreaders are pine, tin, and the best console based one of them all, slrn. netscape can also talk NNTP, thus serving as a news reader for you. As an aside, knr is short for the official bible of all C programmers in the world, irrespective of platform - Kernighan and Ritchie's authoritative "The C Programming Language".

There's nothing wrong with greed - it's built a country as big and powerful as America, which everybody admires. The relevant constitutional language is the eighth clause in Section 8 of Article I. It gives Congress the responsibility ``To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries.'' Financial incentive accelerates innovation is a fundamental belief in the constitution of this country. The problem arises only when the greed becomes "too much". The defintion of too much is subjective. In a democracy, majority opinion prevails. What is not written in US constitution, but everyone knows here is that greed also blocks the flow of information and too much blockade also hurts progress. One has to strike the right balance. -Arun "If you choose not to decide you still have made a choice."

I did that, and the system did boot. But, then at the system did boot: does this mean you got to bash prompt - i.e the system took the required parameters and did the file system mount etc... or are you still at LILO prompt. If the former is true use "passwd" command to change the passwd. root's old passwd is not asked for. If the latter is true your LILO is protected using restricted and hence you need to boot off a floppy and then give "linux single" to reach the bash prompt - and then proceed as advised above.

No, you *can* remove a linux (or any) partition using any fdisk you like.

I have to say it's great! Roughly speaking, it has a JSP/Servlet style infrastructure with s/Python/Java/g. The place where it really excels is - all objects in the system can be edited with a web interface and is ideal for multiple people generating content for a website. Performance difference is noticable - but is not really annoying yet. That's kinda true for all dynamic content generators. Is anyone interested in working on a Zope based LI knowledge base ?

It is great for collaborative work on the web due to its support for WebDAV a protocol for remote authoring over HTTP. How about suggesting this on the zope news group on egroups also . We have three production zope servers and will be able to contribute in this direction. We could start by creating a mailing list to discuss this further. Theres so much knowledge sharing going on at LI it will be good to capture some of it and expand it as well. ######################### Sathya Rangaswamy sathya@intellinux.com Life is free and so is Linux ####################### From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sun Mar 5 17:55:27 2000 Message-ID: <004001bf85f9$5ea9cb00$3301a8c0@digitel> From: "Jiju Thomas Mathew" To: Subject: Re: [LI] Systemwide email alias Date: Sat, 4 Mar 2000 22:17:46 +0530 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 X-Archive-Number: 200003/117 safe way is to create such an alias and pipe any mail to the alias through a script, verify the origin for validity, do no response to the invalid, re inject the mail to valid all users. > Rohit - re your problem (systemwide email alias) here is THE (but > dangerous) fix -- > > To get an address like vsnl's allusers@[server], you should find a line > in /etc/sendmail.mc - > From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sun Mar 5 17:55:38 2000 Message-ID: <002c01bf85f1$2b8f7e20$3301a8c0@digitel> From: "Jiju Thomas Mathew" To: "linux" Subject: Sorry I was Off for a while Date: Sat, 4 Mar 2000 21:19:05 +0530 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2314.1300 X-Archive-Number: 200003/118 dear linuxers, sorry i was off the list for a while doing a full redesigning of my site and trying to keep up with the current demand. i have put up what ever i know to support the linux community, * windows nt osloader and linux dual boot * qmail server howto * dialin server config improved * a boot to linux package (winzip) for those who cant get into linux after a 95/98/NT installation or accidental erase of the MBR.

I ~did~ suggest using procmail to filter these, but having such an alias is dangerous as it renders your box open to various other hacks. In fact, the feature (LUSER RELAY) (for a systemwide alias) was there by default till 8.9.2 (and even some early builds of 8.9.3, and is what VSNL uses for its notorious allusers@server mail id. Sendmail has disabled this by default (and in fact, removed this feature I believe) from 8.9.3 onwards (the one which ships with RH 6.1 doesn't have this feature enabled, or even listed in sendmail.mc). A ~much~ better option is to compile a small mailing list manager like smartlist (procmail based) <=> remember to install a plugin called "confirm" so that every tom, dick and harry can't post to your list. If its just an announcement list, several pop3 servers like popper and qpopper have something called a "pop3 bulletin", where a mail can be appended to each user's inbox as soon as he polls the pop3 server. This is the least resource intensive way to run an announcement list. If you are sure your users are all on pop3, and none on a shell acct / imap etc, then go for it. -- Suresh Ramasubramanian | President, CAUCE India r.suresh@mailandnews.com | suresh@india.cauce.org http://www.india.cauce.org | Stopping Spam In India -- A modem is a baudy house.

The last discussion when someone posted a O(1) scheduler to replace the O(n) scheduler (with a single global run-queue for all processors), there was a huge mumble bumble on the kernel mailing list about "introducing bloat" and "long runqueues don't happen" and "the constant factor is important" (which was almost zero for that algorithm, since he didn't use his improvements for very short run queues), so it's somewhat questionable. I don't see why they have a "long journey", since the scheduler algorithms in question are well-known text-book algorithms. The basic principle of the BSD/QNX scheduler (and all other prioritized O(1) schedulers) is to have a run-queue for each priority (or "goodness" or whatever you call it - just quantisize it so that there aren't too many queues). When descheduling a process, you remember which one was the highest used run-queue, compute the priority of the process to deschedule, and put it into the corresponding run-queue - first to get a bonus for processes that are already cached in, last on sched_yield(). When scheduling, you take the first process out of the highest priority run-queue. SMP-variation: keep separated run-queues for each processor. Usually schedule only within the own CPU's run-queue, and only look at other processor's run-queues, if their highest unscheduled priority is within some offset higher than yours. This means that for the average case, the scheduler is also lock-free (reading the global max-priority is atomic, and therefore doesn't need a lock - and updating is rare), and you get CPU preferrance for free. Since a lot of things that are done explicit in the Linux goodness() function are done implicit here (like preferring processes that ran on the same CPU last time or to keep the previous process running as long as nobody has definitely higher goodness), the algorithm should have *lower* constant factor than the current O(n) scheduler, and should be already better if there is one process to run. There were several patches to the Linux kernel in the past that all featured one of those O(1) schedulers, and none of them made it into the kernel. Linux kernel hackers: even though the BSDers are arrogant, they are not always wrong. O(n) schedulers don't belong to high-loaded servers. IMHO the 2.4er kernel should provide a lock-free O(1) scheduler (well, basically), if it should run well on machines with many CPUs. -- Bernd Paysan "If you want it done right, you have to do it yourself" http://www.jwdt.com/~paysan/ --2oS5YaxWCcQjTEyO-- From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sun Mar 5 19:41:24 2000 Message-ID: <38C32970.1F962842@iname.com> Date: Mon, 06 Mar 2000 09:13:44 +0530 From: Robin Chatterjee Reply-To: robinsc@iname.com Organization: Tata Consultancy Services X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.2.12-20 i686) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: How to install .deb packages??

I'm not sure if the task requires creating another mailing list - because Zope makes things so simple. Here's roughly the idea I have: - Users upload answers to common questions as a HTML file into Zope. - A hierarchical question categroy tree (install, X, mail, partitioning etc) is created in a database - Each question/answer has a synopsis line that can be searched upon - Users can do hierarchical tree based browsing of the database - Additionally, a search interface to get to a answer by number. That way, you can just say: read the answer in: http://li-zope.org/kb/answer?id=12345 Sort of like FAQ'omatic, but using Zope. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sun Mar 5 20:30:36 2000 Received: from Ngate.in.tatainfotech.com (unknown [202.54.102.148]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 535FA38064 for ; Sun, 5 Mar 2000 20:30:19 -0800 (PST) Received: from seepzmail.in.tatainfotech.com (seepzmail.in.tatainfotech.com [163.122.32.22]) by Ngate.in.tatainfotech.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id RAA16902 for ; Mon, 6 Mar 2000 17:58:36 +0530 Received: from localhost (shridhar.daithankar@localhost) by seepzmail.in.tatainfotech.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id JAA07481 for ; Mon, 6 Mar 2000 09:56:32 +0530 Date: Mon, 6 Mar 2000 09:56:32 +0530 (IST) From: "SHRIDHAR N.

Maybe you can use the discussion groups product availabe for zope ;-). (downloadable at zope.org) >> Here's roughly the idea I have: > > - Users upload answers to common questions as a HTML file into Zope. > - A hierarchical question categroy tree (install, X, mail, partitioning etc) > is created in a database Another idea , There is an article in XML.org and describes creating a FAQ on using zope. Along these lines You can create a very simple DTD for this for ex: STB-card How-to Video cards How can I blah blah It has been discussed on LI a thousand times etc etc so dont post this on the list ;-) ,heres the summary of all responses blah blah blah We can then make use of the zope XML product functionality. All you need is a simple DTML method that uses the XML product to parse these files and generate HTML. users would for example create such a file and just upload it in the respective folder for each category. Better yet you can create a method that will look at the category and simply file it in the right category > - Each question/answer >has a synopsis line that can be searched upon Better way to do it in Zope : you can also make these objects ZCatalog aware and automatically create an indexed category object for searching.

Satisfied. The way YaST operates [Old one, Yast 1] is good enough. System is installed and running. Salient ghoches... 1. System, even after configuring X properly, has some problem booting in default runlevel=5. It has resulted in an active mess-up of the GUI on my machine which I will have to correct. [Except for root, other users have problem starting X correctly] xdm starts automatically in runlevel 3. Will have to check it. 2. Modules for ISA Soundcards are not loaded/configured automatically. RHL 6.1 did this automatically for me. Here conf.modules had to be tinkered with. Good things.. 1. The range of utilities and extreme-Linux incorporations is huge and I must say the range of packages supplied for computing is impressive. Especially the range for Ham-radio operations and the application for GPS. 2. Interruptible installations. It, effectively, does NOT take 6 GB, unless you wish to install the sources also.

The last time I checked, it couldn't thread articles, and had no concept of kill files (VV important when usenet browsing). Mutt can thread, and does a damn good job of it for me re LIH, it is finally, a mail client. It cannot be a news reader. The support is not there at all. slrn is the NNTP equivalent of mutt. Simple to use, small, but extremely powerful. Console based. A superb kill file concept. Various other things.

But it depends... at times the DOS Fdisk finds it impossible to delete the Linux partitions but Win NT Disk administrator can do the job.

Atleast this is what I think is happening, because I had the Well, not exactly. The hooks are kept in memory, and whenever you change folders (in the case of folder hooks), the name of the new folder is regex compared with existing hooks. If one matches, then the associated actions take effect. If none matches, then the earlier settings stand. That is why you need a catchall "." hook. Also, the order in your muttrc doesn't matter.

Maybe the order is not supposed to matter (I don't know too much about the internals of Mutt). But I found out by trial and error that when then catchall "." hook is at the end, that command gets executed anyway, and the value is always equal to the default value. It sounds pretty logical too, that the hooks get executed in order, and thus the more specific hooks should come towards the end, because the catchall hook will literally "catch all", and get executed no matter which folder is opened currently. -- Mrinal Kalakrishnan (PGP:B1E86F5B) http://listen.to/mrinal - - - - = ( Redhat Linux 6.1 ) = - - - - = ( Kernel 2.2.12-20 ) = - - - - Doctors take two aspirins and do it in the morning.

Try Starting X with #startx Note : (i) If your mouse pointer appears as a big square ( or rectangle ) , then add the line Option "no_bitblt" just under the Chipset line. I think SiS6215 should be working now. (ii) For SiS6326 users try out the options Option "no_accel" Option "fifo_moderate" if nothing seems to work.

Mount the floppy under linux with the command : mount -t vfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy But for the other way, WinXX can't read ext2fs.

If you have use motif to create your GUI try Lesstif (http://www.lesstif.org/) instead. It is decently source compatible with Motif.

I consider myself a veteran, having removed and reinstalled Linux at least 15 times on my machine. I must have converted the Lin. Partitions to FAT32 at least 6 times. In fact, as far as I know nothing helps. Not fdisk, not diskdruid(if you go for a custom install etc.). Fdisk will not delete the non-dos partition. It will give the option but will not recognize the fs. If you go for a diskdruid option through custom install. You will have to create new partitions for linux elsewhere after deleting the original ones and abort the install after partitions are formatted. Hoever there is a demo utility called partition manager available for download at http://www2.paragon.ru/download/pmedemo.zip This does a wonderful job of manipulating your partitions from Windows . Try it.

It is reasonable to assume that power-supply in the hostels, if not erratic by itself, can be inturrpted by students in the keeda-mood. To the best of my knowledge, the incidences of power-tripping in hostels in IIT [and other institutes also] are not uncommon. It happens here, once a week, at least. Why it should happen is not clear to me and will take some time before I can comment on this definitely. May be someone from the list would like to put in some pearls. BUT, I believe that Red-Hat's Linux 6.1 [kernel-2.12-20] installations are more robust compared to SuSE. When there is no one logged on and should the power trip, red-hat used to restart and required at max an e2fsck -a /dev/hdaN and everything went alright. For a use of period of more than 3 months, I had never had to install the whole package once again due to unrecoverable filesystems. Same is not what I can claim with SuSE. Since last Friday, I will have to be reinstalling the whole thing for the third time since there are unrecoverable errors [in automatic mode] with the filesystem [so fsck had to be run manually] and after a manual check, it became impossible for me to successfully start at least one package [postgreSQL]. Here, uninstalling and then reinstalling with YaST could not help anything. Just summarising an experiences and with no wish to mud-sling SuSE. Power tripping like this should be avoided etc.. it true, but when you don't have a choice, I would prefer RHL 6.1 over SuSE 6.3. Could it all have been a repeated coincidence?

I have been rather selective :-d > and maybe the sync in SuSE happens at a different interval > than in RedHat. Maybe you could try that ?? Hmm.. may be. I believe that Red Hat saved everything at a rather short interval. I will observe this and get back to you. Khader, where does one specify the 'sync'ing interval? May be I could check first hand. If you tell me, good.

Since I have nothing useful on my machine yet, I might try that. This is a new filesystem, alright? I have not been careful enough to encounter an option in YaST as yet which might tell me about having this new FS on my machine. Any advantage over ext2fs? Also, what did the people do with their huge databanks when the native filesystem in Linux changed to ext2 ? Is it possible to keep data while converting FS type in Linux?

DHCP leases that for som e days. So if it leasing then this problem is not just when trying to get new IP address but while getting card's driver loaded. What is happening is the transceiver is handled properly in the driver.But this usually doesn't create much problem. I have one card which is having transceiver problem but no problem in functionality!! Now if your machine also is not facing any problem in communication and just these messages are problem then compile that driver with higher DEBUG level. which will stop writing that LOG . writing to log also makes transfers slow. and that packet loss problem is not that serious at driver level.. TCP/IP will take care of that. These loss problems can be at hardware evel..( don't care..much ) --Vikram > > Feb 29 14:58:11 sidthink kernel: eth0: autonegotiation did not complete successfully > Feb 29 14:58:11 sidthink kernel: eth0: maybe cable problem or transceiver mismatch > > Sometimes there is a packet loss and I am unable to understand why ?? > And the error messages that filled the log are > > Mar 4 13:07:44 sidthink kernel: eth0: Missed Packets = 109 > Mar 4 13:07:44 sidthink kernel: eth0: Tx Col Packets = 0 > Mar 4 13:07:44 sidthink kernel: eth0: Missed Packets = 109 > Mar 4 13:07:44 sidthink kernel: eth0: Tx Col Packets = 0 > > Any One have any Idea what is happening ?? > Let me know If you need more info !

In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-Archive-Number: 200003/214 Hi, I observed a strange behavior with RH 6.1. If I telnet into a box, and try "su", it gives me the password prompt all right, but after entering the passwd, it takes a long (about 10-30 seconds) to give me the root shell. The box is not loaded at all, its a P-III @ 500MHz, with 128MB RAM, and average CPU usage is about 1-2%, mem usage is pretty low too. Another observation is that I find the DISPLAY environment variable set to "localhost.localdomain:0.0". I searched the /etc/profile, /etc/bashrc, and whole of /etc/rc.d tree but nowhere is this variable set. If I try resetting this DISPLAY, by saying "export DISPLAY=", and then do a "su", it just dies with a segmentation fault!!! I have observed this behavior on several RH 6.1 boxes. Any clues why is that DISPLAY is getting set that way? And why should changing its value cause "su" to segfault?? And most importantly, have anyone else observed this behavior with 6.1???

If a friend sitting on the workstation next to you wants to see a jpeg image, you can set DISPLAY to his machine and run xv or whatever. Of course, he should authorize it (via xhost or xauth). Any environment variable can be altered, except a few. Occassionally it is helpful also (for example, on a linux machine with a monochrome monitor, it helps to set TERM to linux-m instead of the default linux). You can see a list of unmodifiable environment variables via the command declare -r. > segmentation fault.

In a telnet session, if the client notices that DISPLAY is set, then it passes the value on the server for the telnet session. So, it is the telnet program that sets it for you. This probably has nothing to do with the segfault in the original post (which has me stumped).

And as far as I know, there is no reason why "su" should even look at what are the contents of $DISPLAY. > segmentation fault. It gets assigned from X startup script(I suppose) and Can you please explain *why* should it dump core??? I have changed DISPLAY several times before, (for several reasons) and I have never faced this segfault. One more point is that if I telnet into a box, why should the DISPLAY get set to localhost? It should not be set, as I am on a plain tty, connected through a plain old telnet. startx (or xinit) does set it. But that is when I am physically sitting on a console or X terminal, which is not the case here. If I just login at some VC, then DISPLAY is not set at all, then *why* should it get set when I connect to the *same* machine through telnet? It was not a newbie question. I have been using linux, both as an admin and a developer for about 5 years now. Regards, Kedar. PS - I discovered this correlation only when I begun looking for reasons for the huge delay. It was then that I noticed that DISPLAY is getting set unnecessarily. AFAIK, only ssh sets display to point to its ssh-agent for secure X11 connections over network, telnet doesn't play around with $DISPLAY.

But the reason should be pretty clear. As soon as you switch to another folder, mutt goes through all the folder hooks in order, checking each one against the current folder. When it comes across a match, it executes the commands given in that hook, and proceeds to the next hook. And finally when the "." hook is encountered, it is also executed anyway, because it matches any folder.

I have 2 basic problems: 1. I am using a SCSI unipack and will shortly be using a multipack with a lot of disks incorporated in them. I need to know as to how these disks are recognised on Linux.(for eg. on solaris they are recognised as c1t0d1,c1t1d1 and so on). I also need to know as to how each partition in a disk is recognised and how the controllers for the multipack is recognised. 2. Where can I find reliable statistics to determine if the cable to the Ethernet card is connected properly or not.

So say, if I need a a module to do some svgalib thing...or some rand/srand thing...I'd look it up...check to see if it's close and modify from there. It's a lot easier to get it coded when you have a skeleton to work from. When you build from a flowchart or other plan; sometimes you make a poorer choice of library function or something else gets in the way. This way I have something substantial (...that's supposed to be good...) to start from. alain ***************************************************** Chat with A.L.I.C.E. at http://www.alicebot.org Do you do HTML?

Now, when mail to one of the lists arrives, it shows To: > listname instead of From: sender. What's the workaround for this? That's because the sequence %L is given in that field which is, according to the manual, a "list-from function". Set the index_format variable to the same as the default (from the manual), but change %L to %n, for the actual name. > If someone forwards an email as an attachment to LIH, what happens is that > the attached email is also split when this recipe takes effect.

One way could be to set the subject of the sub-message to that of the main message, so that it comes immediately after the main message. Or you could add a header In-Reply-To or References, and include the message ID of the original message in that header field. But all this is probably impossible, because `formail -d' doesn't know whether a message is an actual message from the list, or a sub-message - because it just splits it wherever it finds two consective headers. Simple solution - don't use threaded mode if you're using the digest, because anyway the Message-IDs are lost, and so are `References' and `In-Reply-To', so you won't get the neat trees which you normally see.

Thaths -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [LIG] [NON-COMMERCIAL] Reporter required Date: Sat, 4 Mar 2000 12:04:20 +0530 (IST) From: Atul Chitnis To: Linux India General All: Linux.com had appointed a reporter for India last year. The duties were supposed to be to report on all happenings on the Indian Linux scenario and especially the iLUGs. Unfortunately, no reports have been forthcoming from that side, so Linux.COM has asked me whether there is anyone else who could act as the official Linux.COM reporter. Some preconditions to make such a person acceptable to both Linux India and Linux.com: 1. Should be actively involved with Linux. 2. Should be actively involved with activities of Linux India. 3. Must be willing to interact with all the iLUGs across India. 4. Should have good command over the English language 5. Should be willing to spend some time every week to put together a report for Linux.com 6. Should be unbiased and non-political - this is a responsible reporter position, *not* an ideology advocate or "other-OS" basher position. "Masala" writers need not apply. 7. Previous writing experience would be nice. The pay is in US Dollars, and is based on India's contribution to modern mathematics - $0. ;-) The only real payoff is that you would be doing something to help spread the word about Linux in India around the globe. To sweeten (??? ;-) the deal - the same person will automatically be responsible for the upcoming news section of linux-india.org. If you are interested, give a private e-mail holler, including URLs to sample reports/articles you may have written (if available).

Incidentally there is an article on todays linuxtoday.com about peoples experience of linux on laptop. As far as I remember there is a separate HOWTO maintained for each model of laptop(Yes though unbelievable!!) from various people. I have not tried either of them as I don't have a laptop. Try searching 'laptop-HOWTO' on google.

For that you need. 1)X-client installed on each m/c in n/w. any client like WRQ's Reflection. 2)You need to create a client with the help of client wizard that help's to connect to the host. and start x-win application. 3)set the display env variable to the host name. Most probably it's the display env var which is not set in .bashrc file. Hope it helps you. All the best.

I need to know as to how the disks in a multi pack will be recognised on linux. Also, how are the contollers for the multi packs and the partitions in each disk recognised. For eg. on Solaris they are recognised as c1t1d0, c1t2d0 and so on. 2. where can I get reliable statistics to determine if the cable to the Ethernet card is connected properly or not( Single point of failure!!)

Hmm.. what I feel is u dont really need the source code of any ftp client, rather u can achieve with perl . write a perl program to connect your ftp port on the host and issue the commands you need to send/get ur files .. and ur Date::Manip module gives you an excellent time management of your program or instead u can put in cron job .. (Similar things can be done in C also) >> >>hence i want source code of ftp-utility or something like that, i sincerely >>need code for doing this. >>if there is any command then also i need source code for it. hmm .. seems you are a hungry programmer . nice to see you around .. ;) . you can download the code of any ftp client to see how the commands are implemented there .. I mean u can download from redhat site or so many mirror sites are there !!! grab the source of ftp-x.x-x.src.rpm from there! and play with it! good luck!

Uptil now The sendmail internal mails wre working. Today suddenly, even the internal mails started queuing in the mail queue. What i have found is that now I am unable to resolve my domain name itself. i.e. I have my machine domain as vs.mgmmc.edu so I am not able to resolve mgmmc.edu into the local IP address so sendmail is unable to send the internal mails to the local machine itself and the mails get queued. What's happening and what can I do about it. I think this is a name server problem but I cant solve it. All other hosts are being resolved. i.e. ws1.mgmmc.edu ws2.mgmmc.edu etc. etc but not the domain itself i.e. mgmmc.edu How do I do this? and why has it stopped working today? Any ideas?

What happened was that we use kppp to connect..... so yesterday maybe it happened that when we disconnected..... the file /etc/resolv.conf was wiped out while removing the name servers of VSNL. So you can imagine what would have happened.... I filled up the correct entries in resolv.conf and VIOLA!! all the 20 people on the intranet can now use their mailboxes again!! Whew!.....

Contact the BOFH. ------------------------------------------------ Hiya Time to throw away the Bat book[1]... 8.10.0 is out. The biggie is SMTP AUTH, of course, but there are some other nifty features that will help... Better header filtering capability through the ability to store state information about headers. I've got some *really* ugly rulesets as an example, if anyone's interested; Finer granularity in the access_db - you can specify to or from users or domains, rather than having both (to *and* from) or none; Generalised RBL-style lookups - you can specify which DNS list to use, and you can have multiple lists without any custom ruleset hackery. There's lots more that's less relevant to spam-l... the 8.10.0- specific part of the release notes comes to around 1300 lines. I'm still reading through the configuration README and the operation guide... Cheers Richard [1] OK, it'll still be useful for *some* things, but it's way out of date for much of the configuration now - the current edition was written for 8.8, after all. -- Richard Stevenson _________________________________________________________________ From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Mar 8 04:16:18 2000 Received: from rmx09.globecomm.net (rmx09.iname.net [165.251.8.95]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5E6633806D for ; Wed, 8 Mar 2000 04:16:10 -0800 (PST) Received: from web36.pub01 by rmx09.globecomm.net (8.9.1/8.8.0) with SMTP id HAA20201 ; Wed, 8 Mar 2000 07:16:09 -0500 (EST) Message-ID: <382644355.952517769687.JavaMail.root@web36.pub01> Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2000 07:16:09 -0500 (EST) From: Biju Chacko To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Two Little Tips Re SuSE 6.3 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: mail.com X-Originating-IP: 202.54.89.31 X-Archive-Number: 200003/321 Hi All, Something I came across: 1. YAST2 of SuSE 6.3 gives the options of putting LILO on /boot (if it is a separate partition) or on the MBR. If you select /boot, it does NOT automatically set the bootable flag of the partition. I found this out the hard way. I also found myself up the creek with out a paddle when I realized I didn't have a boot floppy. Fortunately, I got out of that mess. Which brings me to Tip #2. 2. If you boot off the SuSE 6.3 CD, it will automatically load YAST2. CTRL-ALT-F2 will get you a root prompt and a ramdisk file system. I haven't had time to explore it but it seemed fairly complete vis-a-vis sys utils. I ran fdisk from it to set the bootable flag of /boot. I believe this is possible with RH too. CTRL-ALT-F6 I think. In a pinch I guess you can use it as a rescue disk. Of course, I don't want to think of the security implications of that. But I guess physical access to the system is the ultimate security lapse. Hope this is useful to somebody. I also hope this is news to somebody. :) Biju ______________________________________________ FREE Personalized Email at Mail.com Sign up at http://www.mail.com?sr=mc.mk.mcm.tag001 From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Mar 8 04:23:34 2000 Received: from e23.nc.us.ibm.com (e23.nc.us.ibm.com [32.97.136.229]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 77A513806D for ; Wed, 8 Mar 2000 04:23:25 -0800 (PST) Received: from southrelay03.raleigh.ibm.com (southrelay03.raleigh.ibm.com [9.37.3.210]) by e23.nc.us.ibm.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id HAA39840 for ; Wed, 8 Mar 2000 07:06:55 -0600 Received: from DemiUrge.in.ibm.com ([9.184.199.132]) by southrelay03.raleigh.ibm.com (8.8.8m2/NCO v2.06) with ESMTP id HAA47790 for ; Wed, 8 Mar 2000 07:23:19 -0500 Received: by DemiUrge.in.ibm.com (Postfix, from userid 1001) id 2156E58812; Wed, 8 Mar 2000 17:53:55 +0530 (IST) To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Sendmail 8.10 officially released X-Url: http://www.sidcarter.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Reply-To: sid@sidcarter.com From: Syed Khader Vali Date: 08 Mar 2000 17:53:54 +0530 In-Reply-To: Suresh Ramasubramanian's message of "Wed, 8 Mar 2000 17:45:37 +0530" Message-ID: <86ln3tps4l.fsf@DemiUrge.in.ibm.com> Lines: 11 User-Agent: Gnus/5.0803 (Gnus v5.8.3) XEmacs/20.4 (Emerald) MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Archive-Number: 200003/322 Suresh Ramasubramanian writes: > >From a mailing list am on -- time to download :) Have you tried postfix ? - Khader -- ------------------------------------------------ @}----------------- Syed Khader Vali (Siddiq) - Linux Guy, LCC sid@sidcarter.com IBM Global Services - India sidgeek@austin.ibm.com Debian GNU/Linux (Woody) http://www.sidcarter.com From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Mar 8 04:29:38 2000 Received: from sce.ac.in (unknown [202.54.71.41]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2E1BF3805D for ; Wed, 8 Mar 2000 04:28:28 -0800 (PST) Received: from [202.54.71.37] (account ) by sce.ac.in (CommuniGate Pro WebUser 3.1) with HTTP id 831605 for ; Wed, 08 Mar 2000 18:08:33 +0530 From: "Vinubalaji.G" Subject: Re: new user problems To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org X-Mailer: CommuniGate Pro Web Mailer v.3.1 Date: Wed, 08 Mar 2000 18:08:33 +0530 Message-ID: In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1" X-Archive-Number: 200003/323 On Tue, 7 Mar 2000 23:43:07 +0530 SuriBabu wrote: > *This message was transferred with a trial version of > CommuniGate(tm) Pro* > > > > ---------- > > From: amiya das[SMTP:amiyadas@yahoo.com] > > Reply To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org > > Sent: Monday, March 06, 2000 5:28 PM > > To: linux-india@lists.linux-india.org > > Subject: [LIH] new user problems > > > > Hi, > > > > I am Amiya, a BCA student from IGNOU.

I didn't get u,and here is the answer for what i understood from ur piece. I think u have done something wrong with the X configurator.When u r prompted for the display configurator check only one setting that is 16 bit color or 24 bit color or some other.

I had faced the same problem, and with different machines ( a P-III, a P-II and a lowly P100) with RH 6.1. In all cases, I upgraded from 5.2, and the difference between the speeds was horrible. I experimented a lot, and finally the following /etc/ppp/options seems to fix the ultra-sluggish connections. lock nobsdcomp noaccomp novj nopcomp proxyarp asyncmap 00000000 mtu 552 mru 552 I am not very sure of the async map entry though. But it works as good as 5.2. It seems there is something wrong with the header compression code, and it makes long tcp sessions (file downloads, large web pages) to be ultra sluggish. Non tcp things - dns and the like seem to work with no problems. Regards, Kedar. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Don't worry over what other people are thinking about you.

I run linux on an ACI laptop and have, at various times, posted about the problems and solutions (if I know them) here. Config: Pentium, 3 GB HDD, 32 MB RAM, separate floppy and CD drives, in built modem, D-Link DE 660 PCMCIA Ethernet card etc. RHL 6.0, stock installation. Status: Everything except sound works. X display is good enough for me. Once had to reinstall everything because of a win 98 problem. Never had any windows version in since then, and that was the end of all my problems. Right now trying to get the Xircom Realport REM 56G-100 Ethernet/Modem card working. It doesn't work in windows, but does with recent versions of pcmcia-cs. For more info, contact me.

Not 50% or 100%. Any metrics (even ball park) on how much performance improvement I'd get if I recompiled ALL the installed packaged on my machine for my processor (say, i686)? I believe there are a couple of hoops I'd have to jump through to get this just right. Something about recompiling glibc and gcc a few times. S. -- "Be patient, son.

They may be malicious - changing the website page contents, deleting files, etc. ¤ "what all ways they use ?" hackers - code analysis crackers - password cracking. Can be done in a variety of ways. e.g you can make intellegent guesses at te code. for example, your passwd may be gaurav123 ( the easiest one that people keep ). So you keep on trying these. crackers also write scripts which try out all the combinations in the dictionary and use them to automatically crack a login. mostly, the login that they try to hack is the root login. There is no point in cracking a user login, but exceptions will always be there. you won't believe how lackadaisical some people can be. I myself have cracked a few passwords. but it is a dogs work. I'll like hacking better ! ¤ "what all we do to stop them ?" hackers - why would you want to stop them ? they are making the software better. crackers - use imaginative passwords, that have nothing in common with your personality/work/family/girlfriends/DOB/favourites. ¤ "what all they do in reality and practicality for doing this ?" hackers - I have already explained this crackers - you could try hacking your enimies websites :-) The US government employes crackers to rage a cold war with the websites of other companies. Obviously, they are not the petty crackers who change the webpages, but they use them to gather info. Also, since the crackers are rather innovative, they use them to make their sites more secure - a case of setting the thief to catch the thief. I hope your questions are answered. Anyone want to add/correct anything here? I don't profess to be all-knowing vibhu.

I know that I > won't As I understand it, the biggest hurdle in *truely* internationalizing gnome (any X app) is getting the whole X infrastructure to properly support unicode (iso 10646). AFAIK, xlib which is used by all X apps to communicate with the X server doesn't support unicode. So it is a matter to get X understand unicode properly, and then make gnome/kde/whatever to support that, and finally writing the l10n (localization) stuff for any local language you want supported. Correct me if I am wrong, but I think glibc does support unicode, the only major work that remains is X. Regards, Kedar.

Unicode is the international standard for representing multilingual text. It defines several formats (the most commonly used one is 2 byte encoding, as in M$ and java, but they also talk about a 4 byte encoding, AFAIK nothing is defined in the 4 byte thing as of now). Unicode is a "industry consortium" standard, M$ being one partner. The ISO mostly adopted the same standard and called it ISO-10646. I may be wrong here, and it may be unicode which tookup iso-10646 and named it unicode. One major strength of M$ is that they support unicode fully, and the API reflects it. For every normal library function, they also have a "w" version (printf, wprintf) that accepts the arguments in unicode 2 byte encoding. AFAIK xlib, which is used by all X apps including gnome/kde/whatever, doesn't yet support unicode. What gnome does is they support a kind of encoding called "UTF-8", which is sufficient for most european languages based on roman script, and chinese and far eastern languages. Indian and arabian languages are a royal pain to support because of the complex ways in which our text is written (compared to roman, and even chinese/japnese). If you want more info about this, visit www.pango.org. It seems they have support for tamil. I am going through their design and other docs to figure out how to support devanagari (marathi/hindi/bengali/gujarati).

Given that most apps are domainated by user mode time, the most you have to gain is by optimizing user level stuff and or buying faster hardware. Only disk/system intensive processes will see any benefit by recompiling the kernel with i686. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Mar 8 22:03:13 2000 Received: from agni.wipinfo.soft.net (agni.wipinfo.soft.net [164.164.6.20]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id F1DF1381F2 for ; Wed, 8 Mar 2000 22:02:33 -0800 (PST) Received: from vayu.wipinfo.soft.net (vayu [192.168.200.170]) by agni.wipinfo.soft.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA25467 for ; Thu, 9 Mar 2000 11:30:12 +0500 (GMT) Received: from platinum.mail.wipro.com ([192.168.223.18]) by vayu.wipinfo.soft.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA19239 for ; Thu, 9 Mar 2000 11:31:37 +0500 (GMT) Received: from wipro.com ([192.135.239.142]) by platinum.mail.wipro.com (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id AAA6750 for ; Thu, 9 Mar 2000 11:33:05 +0530 Message-ID: <38C73DFB.E97DBEE7@wipro.com> Date: Thu, 09 Mar 2000 11:30:27 +0530 From: "Gaurav Yadav" Reply-To: nicholantis@bigfoot.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Compiling Kernel- reg Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200003/364 http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Kernel-HOWTO.html >How to recompile the kernel ?

If the /etc/conf.modules loaded sound drivers properly. 3. If the 'PnP O/S' option is disabled in BIOS. 4. If the sound card is supported in Linux. 5. Do the IRQ/DMA etc match with those reported at the boot-time. Answer to the questions 1, 2, 4 and 5 must be YES for sound to work.

And I considered it best to remove it. ---------file text starting on the next line---- rohit root ---------file text ended on the previous line---- All you have to do is put in some names. But this will prevent you from a fast shutdown unless someone valid is logged in. Usually shutdowns will be inturrutible to users and nothing else. But if you suddenly need to shutdown something.. then calling a valid user all the way from his bedroom may not be a very good idea.

Try what you please, this or Xtheatre.. upto you. But I have a workaround of my own. Actually our monitors and Xservers support a large number of display modes.. many of them much below the resolution of 640x480. To watch VCDs full screen, I set my modes to a really low value... 320x400 or so.. when it barely fits. Fire up xf86config and write your XF86Config using that. It should work properly. Be careful to choose all the feasible modes for your chosen colourdepth and then cycle through those. Your window will fill the screen.

I have used both, but sendmail much more extensively than postfix. To me postfix appears to be more scalable, *very* well designed, and much more robust/secure, and *very* easy to maintain/administer compared to sendmail. The only reason why I haven't switched to postfix in a big way is "inertia" and "don't fix it if it ain't broken".

X doesn't have to "understand" unicode. It just needs to generate the right symbols for the right combination of key strokes and use the resulting encodings to lookup the right glyph in the unicode font file. Yudit running on Xlib already does this quite well. The problem with X has always been over generalization :-) Read about XIM and how they handle Japanese input methods in a separate process to help the X server. For those curious, one has to maintain a dictionary and use the phonetics generated by the keystrokes to lookup an ideogram (a picture representing the idea)! The primary problem with i18n with Indian languages has been the lack of good TTF fonts, which are standards based (ok, if people think unicode sucks, agree on something else). X11 renderers of TTF fonts out there on the web are less than pleasing. Keyboard mapping is less of an issue (no ideograms! :-), as we can use the same method used in local language typewriters. xmodmap already does this. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Mar 8 23:30:32 2000 Received: from c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com (c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com [24.0.69.165]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 14B8838051 for ; Wed, 8 Mar 2000 23:30:24 -0800 (PST) Received: (from adsharma@localhost) by c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id XAA24948 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Wed, 8 Mar 2000 23:30:24 -0800 Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2000 23:30:24 -0800 From: Arun Sharma To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: internationalizing in hindi Message-ID: <20000308233024.D24687@sharmas.dhs.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.6i In-Reply-To: ; from Kedar Patankar on Thu, Mar 09, 2000 at 11:20:36AM +0530 X-Archive-Number: 200003/376 On Thu, Mar 09, 2000 at 11:20:36AM +0530, Kedar Patankar wrote: > One major strength of M$ is that they support unicode fully, and > the API reflects it.

But about cjk and indian scripts, AFAIK the CJK characters are not formed in the complex way ours are. They have a very large number of symbols/characters, but there is no mechanism of combining primitives to form the actual characters/glyphs as our scripts do. Am I correct? In that supporting cjk boils down to having those thousands of symbols encoded. Where as supporting indian scripts is much more complex due to the way our scripts modify/merge/manipulate the individual characters while writing.. Regards, Kedar.

The complexity in Indian languages is that the glyph is not complete, until you've typed 2-3 more key strokes, which result in the generation of 2-3 unicode characters. But juxtaposing the glyphs corresponding to those characters doesn't result in a readable "Indian character". In CJK too, you need to wait until 2-3 key strokes are entered, before mapping that sequence to one of a thousand symbols using a dictionary lookup. For Indian languages, the problem is not that of having insufficient allocation of the unicode space. We have enough room to implement string manipulation libraries for example. The problem is that we can't just blindly index the encoding into the font file to get a glyph. One might need to index a group of 2-3 encodings into the font file to get a drawable glyph.

Thanks, Kedar. Since I am starting from scratch here, I think I will stay with postfix which is properly installed on my machine so for as the software goes. Configuring is yet to be done. So I will do that... hopefully I will succeed too. I have not read the manuals yet [and Khader, you can pity me for 5 minutes, and no more, for not having a Linux machine in my office,]... but will it be out of the limits of decency to ask you if there is something like linuxconf in SuSE?

Hmm... you mean a command executable by a particular group [gid < certain] and put many 'trusted' users in that group? Or by aliasing your 'shutdown' to something other than shutdown [say a script] which checks whether the user's name exists in a conf file and then shuts down? [In which case shutdown.allow is the best solution] Or did I miss the point altogether?

I don't think Jeffery is much educated about computers. But Binand had sent a mail to me some time back and had summarised quite a summary <;> of books. Want that? I think jargon learning etc is OK if that is all you wanna do but The C programming language [K&R] The Unix environment [Kernigham and Pike] are the two good ones. Lately I have picked these up. These books have fundamental questions which really clear one's understanding rather than making one familiar with the jargon. Questions like is "/dev/tty a link to your login terminal? If not, then why not?" are the ones which will make you pull your hair unless you know your stuff. More like learning Physics from Resnick and Halliday. Good experience. All the best.

YES ! I've tried this first hand twice. This is only a solution,you might tackle it in a different way. I've suggested a way ,with the existing tools that you may have. It's not an inefficient system the Rem partition button is provided just for that. and it's sometimes necessary to do this to your or whoever's filesystem if there's some problem during installation ...Like : 1.Power failure 2.Incomplete installation etc..

Some people complained in the past about the Xserver shipped with the stock install of Red Hat Linux [Brought to us by PCQ Nov'99 and before people yell at me, I must say it is not to be counted as anyone's fault!] XF86_SVGA server from 3.3.5 version of Xfree86 was somewhat buggy. In fact, a lot many people had to go back to the server shipped with Chip CD [Oct 99 that would be RHL 6.0] and install it from there.. I am surprised that this was a recommended solution. In all probability, the fellow might as well be running the same RHL 6.1 !!!! Let us find out.. Bhargawa saheb, ap hi ki query thi na? Which version are you using? In any case, one solution is this. After fighting it out with SiS cards myself and then going to FBDev, I changed my graphic card. The vendor was agreeable to the idea... Thankfully. I still do not believe that server with 6.1 RHL is the solution. It failed in my case. As Rajesh Fowkar from Goa once iterated to me, that there is no 'One size fits all' solution for us SiS card holders. We should rather hold a Citibank Gold card. :-D Try X server XF86_SVGA from http://www.xfree86.org/ The version 3.3.6 [currently with me] may be what you need. Slower and more painful operation would be to use FBDev which works all the time. Contact me personally / Or check www.exocore.com/linux [Is there a tilde before "linux"?] > (You've not mentioned your Linux version,I assume it's not RH6.1,in which > case you might just upgrade, instead of a full install.... ) Or may be an rpm -ivh xf86 etc might do? I soon wish to put up all these routine findings on the web somewhere. Or people could look in the archieves.... what is wrong with the archieves anyways?

AFAIK gnu/linux doesn't use BIOS (except for PCI and SCSI / ATA[33|66] bios) for its operation. So no point using shadow memory to hold cached versions of system bios. Regards, Kedar.

As also in Mandrake - while installing Mandrake recently on a friend's machine I realised we'd forgotten to note down the existing partition structure. (He had already had an older version of some Linux on it). Hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get into the text mode consoles, start exploring until you find one with a prompt (in this case it was #2) mkdir a temp mount point, do fdisk -l on /dev/hda, guess what his "/" was, mount it, read etc/fstab, umount it!

Therefore 8bits,16bits and 24bits ,(640*..,..,1024x768 of each) Now this is what is happening: if i do cntr + alt + '+' i see only 2 resolutions now , the earlier default resolution which the Xconfig says , 32bit, 1024x768 cant be seen,therefore the screen goes blank(black) and the signal to the monitor (shown next to the poweron) goes red instead of being green.

Modem init string. This you can obtain from modem *.ini file provided for windows. 2. Find out the kind of dialing, pulse or tone. 3. type of authentication (PAP or CHAP). 4. The serial port to which modem is connected(COM1, COM2, ..) and of course the phone number. I assume you have configured X windows. Fire up "control-panel" program from a xterm. select modem configuration. Here you need to specify the serial port to which the modem is connected. Now select network configuraion and press add button. It will give you a list of options. Select PPP from the list and say OK. Now specify phone number and PAP details like PAP user name and password . In the same menu you will see "customize" button. When you press it you will be presented with different configuration sections. The defaults in hardware sections will work fine. Select Communication section. Give the modem Init string there in the entry given. Then Specify either ATDT (if you use tone dial) or ATDP (if you use pulse dial). Also go to Networking section and select ppp up at boot time if you want. Now Say Yes. Come out of Control-panel saving the configuration. Goto directory /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/. Run ./ifup ifcfg-ppp0. Now it should dial and connect to net. To check whether you are connected run "ifconfig -au". You will see ppp0 listed if you are connected. Hope this will help.

So forgive me if I am asking a stupid question. In Turbo C, you have the functions inport() and outport() to deal with receiving and sending data to external ports such as LPTs. How do I do it when I an programming in C in UNIX environment. In other words, can anybody tell me how to send an 8 bit binary data to port 0x378 using an ANSI C program? A sample code would be very useful. Thanks a million.

Now this default resolution is needed . Check the frequency settings for the monitor that you gave Xconfigurator. Your video card is using a frequency that will not be accepted by your monitor (it may be too high). Some monitors are designed to "switch off" in such cases to avoid damage. Use xf86config and enter the values using the data from your monitor manual.

A sample code would be very useful. As Gaurav pointed out, you can potentially do it, but it's frowned upon. You should be writing a kernel mode device driver which does all these low level operations and provide a device abstraction to be used from user level. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Mar 9 21:44:21 2000 Received: from agni.wipinfo.soft.net (agni.wipinfo.soft.net [164.164.6.20]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E8B5C38060 for ; Thu, 9 Mar 2000 21:41:36 -0800 (PST) Received: from vayu.wipinfo.soft.net (vayu [192.168.200.170]) by agni.wipinfo.soft.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA27341 for ; Fri, 10 Mar 2000 11:09:23 +0500 (GMT) Received: from platinum.mail.wipro.com ([192.168.223.18]) by vayu.wipinfo.soft.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA18788 for ; Fri, 10 Mar 2000 11:10:47 +0500 (GMT) Received: from wipro.com ([192.135.239.142]) by platinum.mail.wipro.com (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id AAA70 for ; Fri, 10 Mar 2000 11:12:21 +0530 Message-ID: <38C88A9F.163549D3@wipro.com> Date: Fri, 10 Mar 2000 11:09:43 +0530 From: "Gaurav Yadav" Reply-To: nicholantis@bigfoot.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: problem installing Red Hat Linux 6.1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200003/452 Signal 7 is a Bus Error, which isn't much help to you. It's a pretty catastrophic failure, whatever, probably because something has gone horribly wrong in one of the installation programs. which might indicate a hardware error. the culprit may be bad RAM chip, less memory, cache fault, dma controller...ie hardware fault. Try turning off the CPU-cache in the BIOS and see if the problem goes away. Also try swapping memory around in the motherboard slots to see if it is either slot or memory related. also visit RH installation support site. www.redhat.com try this also: Copy the program hdparm from a working linux system / some ftp site to a floppy. When the install program asks you to choose packages etc, go to the second console using F2 and mount your floppy. Run: hdparm -d0 /dev/hda Then go back to installation F1 and continue. If it still doesn't work, you may have one of the more common problems such as bad memory etc. If this approach solves the installation problem, the first thing you want to do after installation is to login as root and change /etc/rc.d/rc.sysconfig to disable dma at the earliest possible point. -gaurav.

Recently, I instal= led Redhat Linux 6.1 on my system to dual boot Windows and Linux. Linux does not detect my soundcard. When I run sndconfig, I get an Error message: Segmentation Fault: Core Dumped. Windows on the other hand has detected the sound card. I am having lot of problems with the X-term. Initially I could not see anything.. THen I changed the background and foreground colours to get the windows. But, then the characters are very distant from each other and also when I type clear, the window does not get cleared. I have tried Ctrl +L, = but to no avail. Sometimes, repetitious characters occur. I tried redirecting= my cat command output to a file and when I opened that file, I found the same repeting characters problem. Please help. I would appreciate it at a lot if someone could mail me a solution as quick as possible.

Running at kernel- level gives you privileges on par with those available to viruses under DOS. The advantage of most Unixen is that a normal user has to overcome filesystem and memory protections (separate UIDs, non-root permissions) before being in a position to take-over a system-call. The word "virus" under Linux brings to my mind a program known as an "LDT infector". I forgot whether this *was* a virus. --vml, Model Engg.

The size of the mail varies but it is always empty. Besides, the mails in the backup folder are equal to the total of the mails in the other folders without counting the emoty mail in the FROM folder. 3) In mutt, when I try any of the keys (m for mail for eg.) I get a message: Mutt-Farzaan-850-0: Permission denied (error no = 13) Sharukh.

If you have shell access on any *nix server, running a few basic command like ls, cd, cat is not unethical. You are valid user on the server and using commands which are made available to you. It may surprise you that on all the vsnl / dot server 95% percent of file have rwxr-xr-x permission. Now if any one calls (specially media) this as hacking then it is ignorance of their knowledge. Now to your first and second question - The real hacker try to get an account the server by exploiting various software which have bugs. Then make a back door entry on the server from where he can again come back. Clean the system logs to hide their presence, and enjoy. In most of the cases the stupidity of server admin (like leaving the ftp directory writtable or having guest account with password as guest etc) is also exploited. For example on many of dot/vsnl server if you run following commands at shell ( or try Kermit shell ) prompt WWW_HOME=/ export WWW_HOME lynx you will be able to browse the entire server directory. One of the vsnl server bom4 has its complete /var directory writtable to world. So the point is, in most of the cases stupid server admin only offer their server on platter to hackers. Now to your second question- If you are incharge of the an important server then, you should be fully conversant with the operating system, get the latest exploit list from the mailing list like BUGTRAQ, CERT etc. Remember punishing a hacker (only if it involved a finacial loss ) is a daunting task even in states. Unfortunately In India there is no legislation in place also. The prevention is the only cure like for AID. I did not get your last question correctly, And our big brothers also would certainly mind such an lengthy mail on OFF-TOPIC. Best Regards, M.S.Deshmukh, Director. Beta Computronics Pvt. Ltd.

Boot from the Cd to load linux and now deleate the partion from here . 3. Define the swap and native partion size .

But we thought we would use Linux for our mail server, because our ISP is NIC-NET, which supports Unix uucp, not Windows NT. Hardware: Pentium II 400 MHz, 64MB RAM, 2GB Linux boot partition on HDD Sis6326 AGP card with 4MB RAM D-Link DFE-530 TX Fast ethernet card External modem on COM2 Serial Mouse on COM1 SAMTRON 40Bn SVGA colour monitor Problem 1: We areable to do minimal install of RedHat 6, but unable to get XWindows to work properly. Apparent reason: Monitor not supported (not listed in the choices given by "setup", and simple VGA/SVGA settings don't work either! Tried settings of 45Bn, but failed) As a result, although XWindows boots up, we get an unreadable interface (am barely able to discern the logout symbol and logout properly!) Shouldn't there be a simple way of getting a minimal readable Xwin interface going? And then fine tuning it inside using (say) "enlightenment"? Btw, I have noticed postings in this list and elswhere that suggest that Sis6326 is a problem card vis-a-vis Linux. So perhaps we have two problems, not one, viz., unsupported card and unsupported monitor. Yikes! Problem 2: Network card detected, offers a list of netword cards which does not include the specific one we have, and other DLink options that are available don't work (portable 600, 630). Problem 3: When we shutdown using init 0 command or "halt" at login prompt, linux shuts down but does not actually switch off the PC the way Windows 98 does, and the way I have seen Linux do on other machines. Any help would be greatly appreciated by us novices. Also, any tips on configuring the modem, and on running uupc to upload/download our emails from NIC (perhaps somebody on this list has already done this?) would be very useful. Thanks in advance.

The LI-* mailing lists now have rotating footers. There is some dynamic rotation between the (as of now) 4 footers that exist. One of the 4 footers is about the availability of the archives.

Apparent reason: Monitor not supported As for monitors, it doesn't really matter whether it comes up in the list of monitors or not. What you should do is to select "unlisted monitor" and then manually enter the sync rates (these will be available in your monitor's users' manual). > Btw, I have noticed postings in this list and elswhere that suggest that > Sis6326 is a problem card vis-a-vis Linux.

Well, RHL either detects a network card, or offers a list for you to choose from. Most PCI cards are detected. If it is not detected, then it might be because the card is ISA. ISA cards run on the ne.o driver, and you will have to specify IO address and IRQ in your conf.modules file. IRQ can occassionally be found out while the PC is booting (the BIOS comes up with a line thats says "network controller" and its IRQ). As for IO address, you will have to try various addresses. Start at 0x220 and go on till 0x340 - you will succeed somewhere. > Problem 3: When we shutdown using init 0 command or "halt" at login > prompt, linux shuts down but does not actually switch off the PC the way > Windows 98 does, and the way I have seen Linux do on other machines.

This question has been answered many times before. Of course, if you can do it, download XFree86-4.0. Only the sources for the Linux platform are there at present, so you will have to compile the package yourself. However, it is completely worth it. For example, on my card (an S3 trio 3D), all 24 bit issues with netscape icons, etc. have been solved. Also, XFree-4.0 as well as XFree86-3.3.6 have updated support for the SiS6326, where the problems that you speak of are solved. If you prefer to be less venturesome, go for XFree86-3.3.6, because that is a part of the tested 3.3.x series. yours, venu On Sat, 11 Mar 2000, DILLIP KUMAR BARIK wrote: > Dear friends, > We are installed Redhat Linux 6.1 in a pentium III machine.

I'm beginning to like tarballs - editing makefiles is fairly nice - especially when I can junk stuff I don't normally use (like pgp support) and get a slightly leaner install.

No knowledge of uucp, though. man uucp might help you. As Sharad said he was in Bangalore, he could contact anyone from ERNET / NIC there - they'll help him out, especially as they are his direct upstreams. Very few people still use uucp these days, but it has one major advantage - can run on really dinosaur era equipment, and is ~not~ a resource (memory / hardware) hog. It's also dirt cheap. That's possibly why most of the Govt. of India is still connected using UUCP (another matter that their installs are ~extremely~ buggy and even vulnerable to being rooted).

The mailing list behaviour has changed. If you use the `lists' command, then it assumes that you are not subscribed to that particular list, and therefore adds your name in the Mail-Followup-To header.

The configuration files for uucp are (usually) in the directory /etc/uucp/. You can copy the sample config files (Systems.ex etc. ) and modify the phone numbers, modem port etc. It is not very difficult. You can check the settings by dialing manually to NIC with the "cu" command. For exchanging mails, NIC has to give you a UUCP login account and you have to modify the sendmail.cf on your machine to make it use uucp for sending/receiving mails (There must be a sample sendmail.m4 along with the sendmail.cf package). This setup can be checked manually using the Uutry command. Once it is working you can schedule the dialing out at desired times with entries in the crontab. On the whole the setup requires a "little" effort. I guess fewer people are using uucp these days. The new versions of Linuxconf may make the task easier (I have not used it). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- T. N.

I could reproduce the exact symptoms you describe by just chmod -w /tmp/binand and this problem vanished when I did a chmod +w /tmp/binand /tmp/binand is my $TMPDIR. What you have given is fine for /tmp (drwxrwxrwt). But where is mutt trying to create the temporary file for you? For me, it picks up the TMPDIR environment variable and writes there. I have the line set tmpdir=$TMPDIR in my .muttrc. If you also have it (since you say you are using my .muttrc), then probably you can solve this by deleting that line from .muttrc, or if you want to use it, by putting the lines export TMPDIR= mkdir -p $TMPDIR in your .profile.

You didn't say what exactly was the problem.

What does the messages during startup say? Get the manuals for your monitor out and using xf86setup configure the monitor for a resolution it supports.Once you have the Xwindows running, you can fine tune the settings using XF86Setup that runs within the GUI.

The install screen showed up as black patches on SiS6326. With SiS6215 it worked. Install on the DOS/Windows(If you have one) partition and try it for a few days before attempting a full change over. Moreover it is based on Debian. So there will be a few differences in the way system is configured compared to RedHat. You need to edit the /etc/X11/XF86Config and make the *well known changes* to get the SiS cards working. It gives KDE by default. The Corel FileManager seems to be good.

U have to download the driver from Open Sound System (OSS) "www.opensound.com" or "www.alsa-project.org". They have listed this card as being supported by there driver.I have not downloaded it or installed it yet. I am looking for some other answer than this for this question. In www.opensound.com u will be presented with an evaluation license.And for buying the whole thing will cost u $20.This download is 1.3 Mb in size. I think the "www.alsa-project.org" may be a better choice. bye vinu On Sat, 11 Mar 2000 11:51:53 +0530 (IST) BALAJI S wrote: > *This message was transferred with a trial version of > CommuniGate(tm) Pro* > > I have a yamaha pci 724 [ds-1 audio controller] (as auto > detected by > sndconfig) sound card.

Well, I am sure you started composing in vi, mutt's default editor. vi is quite intimidating for beginners. I suggest you use one of the simpler to use editors (pico or joe) as your editor for mutt. Put set editor=/usr/bin/pico in your .muttrc, to edit with pico. If you want to try vi, you might need to look through one of the many vi tutorials that exist on the net.

When a program is compiled, the compiler puts in a lot of debugging information into the resultant binary, to make debugging easier (eg., gdb can read a binary which was compiled with the -g flag to gcc and then tell you even line numbers from source files where a particular thing is happening). Once your program is stable, there is no need for this information and you can safely strip it away. You can either do it via the -s flag to gcc (put this in the LDFLAGS field of the Makefile) or via the strip utility. I think the same goes for profiling info as well.

A rule of thumb I use: > Hacking is not something you have to be ashamed of, and not something Actually what you meant by a hacker is not 100% correct. What you meant is crackin' (one kinda) ;-) Last year arround Oct-Nov one fine mornin' I was playin' with Telnet. I was experimentin' on cal2 server of VSNL. As it is it was hackneyed. Then I tried FTP on cal2, which I never did. I got root access. I came out without any exploytation. Then after I did the same thing for 'bout 10 times for 2-3 months. After that one day I along with my friends got a System Privilage saying VSNL is closin' all its shell accounts with telnet access. I don't know whether it was corelated but the fact is VSNL didn't check its Log for for at least 3 months. I've NT & *nix Pass Crackin' utilities, with the help of that I can get the passes. I was ashamed thinkin' our leadin' ISP's system config was so poor. I did the same thin' with many other servers. I did everythin' for curiosity, fun & for knowledge. I don't have any other intentions. I still do it (Some time) for pure fun. So if you discuss anythin' 'bout crackin', I'm always here for gatherin' knowledge. Any body can use this for security reason.

I don't Primarily because of morons like you cracking their servers. Also because we at CAUCE India complained to VSNL Calcutta that their servers 1. Were open relays (see http://www.orbs.org/otherresources.html for more info on WHAT an open relay is) 2. Were full of security (including root access) holes, and lots of people were downloading and cracking their /etc/passwd file, and spamming all the users listed in the file. VSNL, in their infinite wisdom, shut down port 23 (telnet) when our complaints were about insecure port 25 (smtp). Anyway, it's pretty good they did it - if they don't have enough of a clue to secure their servers (simple thing would be to upgrade and patch their antique boxes), they can at least prevent stupid script kiddies like you from accessing unix accounts and trying out age old, commonly available hacks (and thinking they are gr8 31337 h4x0r d00dz).

Leave the password section blank in both /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow files. (Its the second field). Or else you can fiddle around with the pam modules (keep a boot disk handy in this case). Commenting out lines in the pam modules is a major security risk (No user will be checked for passwords at all). Devdas Bhagat.

The proxy web cacheing works fine, when I access the web from a 95/NT box. Most revisted pages are immediately fetched from the Apache Proxy's cache. This is certainly not true when I access these same pages from the hosting Linux system. Each revist is fetched from the site. I have configured browsers exactly alike. Any idea why this is happening? 2. == One other problem I have noticed is the slow startup of Apache at boot up time. In the startup scripts, I have the following lines: if [ -x /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl ]; then echo "Starting Apache Web Server" /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start fi The system waits for about 5 minutes before moving on to the next instruction. I do not have any "sleep" commands in this script. Once the system has started, if I do any of the following commands: /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl stop /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl restart Apache responds rightaway. If anyone is experiencing this same problem, please let me know how you resolved this problem. Thank you in advance. Subba Rao subb3@attglobal.net http://pws.prserv.net/truemax/ => Time is relative.

I have had Netscape on Linux to behave properly with proxy servers. If I were you, I'd double check the browser settings.

Drivers for this card are not available from vendor(for linux of course). The card claims to be SoundBlaster/SoundBlasterPro compliant. Sndconfig could not help me of any sort. I have downloaded oss drivers and using the card by emulating SoundBlasterPro. however I am not happy with the quality of the sound. It's nowhere near to that in windows. Also it's an evaluation copy and I can not use it forever. I also tried to configure the card as soundBlaster as given in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/sound/SoundBlaster as follows # modprobe sound # insmod uart401 # insmod sb io=0x0220 dma=1 irq=12 Here I get error as device in use or resource busy(I don't remember exact wording of it.) I checked information in /proc/pci,/proc/dma,/proc/interrupts. But none of these are conflicting or used by any other device etc. So what's next? I took i/o,dma,irq from windows. To my wonder, windows uses irq 05. OSS soundblaster emulation uses irq 07 and /proc/pci shows irq 12. What does this mean exactly? Also windows uses a range of i/o addresses like 0x0220-0x02ff(something like that, I don't remember). But 'insmode sb' does not allow me to specify a range Can anybody help me in loading SB module properly. Thanks in advance.

But users can send mail using netscape to other users but couldn't receive them using netscape. It give a error that server cannot accept connection or server busy. What will be the problem? I have configured the intranet and E-mail using the May 1998 PcQuest using RedHat 6.1 supplied with Nov '99 PCQuest.

It give a Check that you have installed the imap*.rpm on your server. Also make sure that you have uncommented the pop/imap lines in /etc/inetd.conf. If it still doesn't work, check your /etc/hosts.(allow|deny) and make sure the netscape client boxes are not black-listed in /etc/hosts.deny. But most likely, just installing imap-4.5-4.i386.rpm should be sufficient. Regards, Kedar.

Why do you *need* a system call for doing such a thing? You can do it as well by just reading the raw device (/dev/hda or whatever) and interpreting the contents.

I am sure he never had any evil intentions and if he had any, he would never have come out in this forum sharing his knowlege. With root access to VSNL's server and wrong intentions, he could have done much harm which I am sure he never did. Having knowlege is one thing and misusing that knowlege is another. I beleive that good system administrators should know more about cracking so that they can take care of all such security issues on their servers. Yes, Suresh may be right that this might not be the proper forum to discuss cracking where we basically discuss installation and other problems related to Linux. A good Policeman HAS to know different tricks/methods used by thieves to effectively stop them ;-) So let us not be so harsh to Sibayan this time.

For example, Frank Harary once suggested the law that any field that had the word "science" in its name was guaranteed thereby not to be a science. He would cite as examples Military Science, Library Science, Political Science, Homemaking Science, Social Science, and Computer Science. Discuss the generality of this law, and possible reasons for its predictive power.

Coming out of restricted shell is pretty easy on most of the server. Then there are 'n' number of suid program which can be exploited to get root access. I have written many mail to these server admin. But I am not able to convince these people. Secondly the stopping of shell access works only with the dial up line. If you login to gias server (e.g. giasbm01) with user guest and password gias123 then you can go to any server and get shell prompt. I really wonder why they can't simply put shell as false in passwd file to disallow shell login. Last year when I pointed my browser on port 8081 of one of the dot server I received a beautiful server administration menu without authentication similar to linuxconf) with root access.

I have a LAN of 18 PII 350 MHz machines and 17 with 6215 cards. In RH 6.1 I tried the solution given by PCQuest but failed miserably to run X. However, in RH 6.0 I am running the LAN beautifully with X in 32 bit colors and 800X600 resolution. The trick is to configure the X withXF86Config and give any SiS related name there. then open the file XF86Config in /etc/X11/ directory. go to the subsection of "Display" "Configured by XConfigurator" and unremark the line for VRAM and add a line "ChipSet "SiS86C205"" without the outside quotes. and start ur X with startx command. In RH 6.0 it is guaranteed to work. But not in 6.1.

Logins without passwords are one of the most stupid things you can do to your computer, except in very very special circumstances. FTP and TFTP only allow access to a restricted area of the disk by anonymous means. Telnet gives you access to the whole filesystem by default. If you want to implement passwordless logins over the 'net, use ssh, or at the very least use rlogin/rsh with .rhosts (again, a bad idea but not as bad as not having a password).

I am = not able to understand that why is this verifiaction done when the user is alre= ady authenticated when he comes to the shell prompt after logging in. does ppp automatically routes all the http requests to the server after the connection ppp is maintained or some setting has to setup on the server. further i am a little confused whether win98 requires PAP authentication by default. they are option in OPTIONS file saying +ppd or -ppd , peer authorisation required or not etc. what options do i need to setup from win= 98 client. futher can anybody help in pointing some resource for setting up = ppp with client as win98.(i have gone thru ppp howto)=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20= =20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20 Thanks ____________________________________________________________________ Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=3D1 From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Mar 13 03:39:39 2000 Received: from agni.wipinfo.soft.net (agni.wipinfo.soft.net [164.164.6.20]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3C36438062 for ; Mon, 13 Mar 2000 03:37:18 -0800 (PST) Received: from vayu.wipinfo.soft.net (vayu [192.168.200.170]) by agni.wipinfo.soft.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA01435 for ; Mon, 13 Mar 2000 17:05:11 +0500 (GMT) Received: from platinum.mail.wipro.com ([192.168.223.18]) by vayu.wipinfo.soft.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA21561 for ; Mon, 13 Mar 2000 17:06:42 +0500 (GMT) Received: from wipro.com ([192.135.239.142]) by platinum.mail.wipro.com (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id AAA1446 for ; Mon, 13 Mar 2000 17:08:21 +0530 Message-ID: <38CCD28D.8BBB035C@wipro.com> Date: Mon, 13 Mar 2000 17:05:41 +0530 From: "Gaurav Yadav" Reply-To: gaurav.yadav@wipro.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Automated Login - Is it possible ?

Plus, if this keeps going on, Linux will never shed the "script kiddies only" (not even "hackers only") image.

Funny, I didn't know I had any such powers - all I can do (and have done) is to fw the guy's post to VSNL (whose box he rooted) with a request to reprimand him (and get a written apology). > How can you be so sure? And just his presence was bad enough > -- did it (along with other intrusions like that) result in loss of a > shell account for lots of other people?)

You do not break into On the other hand, they read some of the kiddie warez and h4x0r sites, and get stupid ideas ... As an admin, I know about root shell exploits - and my only use of that knowledge is to prevent my boxes from being h4x0red. I don't go around breaking into every server I see (and have never done so - even when I first learnt about it). In fact, I know some ISPs who'd delete a user immediately if they found him running any such stuff from their network. -- Suresh Ramasubramanian + President, CAUCE India + www.india.cauce.org Stopping Spam In India + suresh@india.cauce.org + Spammers are Losers -- The primary function of the design engineer is to make things difficult for the fabricator and impossible for the serviceman.

One is always up, through VSAT(very Slow Access Terminal) and other through dial up to VSNL (faster than VSAT). My networks default route is set to VSAT. When I dial up ppp, my routing table shows both VSAT and VSNL routes as default. But it uses VSAT route(Slow), not the VSNL route. I have to delete the VSAT route manually to set the VSNL route as default and when ppp goes down, I have to manually set the route again back to VSAT. I have configured my ppp through netcfg, and in /etc/sysconfig/network- sctipts/ifcfg-ppp0 file I have set defaultroute against pppoptions. I am not runing routed. I tried with ifup-ppp/ifdown-ppp but failed. Could someone please help us to solve the problem so that routing is automatically set. Sorry, if it's a repetation. With best regards, Ashis Kr.

You might be able to steal some code from fdisk. But no system calls. Remember, the kernel rarely carries code for things which can be done from the user land too.

Also print your pages 2-uped (ie. 2 pages worth of information side-by-side in landscape mode (The psutils package has a software called psnup which helps do this).

But, I don't understand what's the Big deal in logging once and > leaving it like that ?? I mean why does someone need automated logins ?? sure they are entirely two different things. one use of automated login(s) is automation of test cases or simualtion of network ( on a real network ) for e.g. you are simulating a network or trying to judge an algo. see what i am trying to reveal is that these tests run for hours and hours, they log the results and a person cannot be made to login thousand times. now there is an another advantage which is that suppose in a network you are having computers ( may be diskless ...but suppose with ram in case of diskless) ok all those protocols like ARP, RARP will of course run....hence diskless do not have any major difference. and suppose you do not want to boot from hard disk ( guli guli choooo gayab ) you can always come up with automated login where password is pre-decided between the booting computer and the computer who is booting it. and after the booting the computer is having a telnet/ftp session to work on....as accordingly. and you do not require a whole operating system over here only a session. > > Or maybe I am wrong !! everbody is some correct i remember one saying being a learned is worst part of life a learner always does creation. > > - Khader -gaurav. -- _ |^|^| -^- Love to Linux \-/ G A U R A V | mailto:gaurav.yadav@wipro.com / mailto:gemit7time@hotmail.com | Sea/She is nature's art/\/ Everybody likes to get the feel of it |-=-----------------------/-----------------------------------------| |_|f I can I m a g i n/e it I can A c h i e v e it_._.-.-._.| From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Mar 13 19:32:28 2000 Received: from dwarpal.wipsys.soft.net (dwarpal.wipsys.soft.net [164.164.127.8]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5496A380A6 for ; Mon, 13 Mar 2000 19:32:18 -0800 (PST) Received: from ace.wipsys.soft.net (ace.wipsys.soft.net [164.164.29.18]) by dwarpal.wipsys.soft.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA27224 for ; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 09:04:30 +0530 (IST) Received: from vibhu ([164.164.28.228]) by ace.wipsys.soft.net (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with SMTP id AAAE19 for ; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 08:59:29 +0530 From: "VIBHU RISHI" To: Subject: RE: Regardeing Hindi Linux Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2000 09:09:41 +0530 Message-ID: <000f01bf8d66$eea36710$e41ca4a4@wipsys.soft.net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Priority: 3 (Normal) X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook 8.5, Build 4.71.2173.0 In-Reply-To: <001301bf8cd6$ef02eea0$d366c5cb@default> Importance: Normal X-Archive-Number: 200003/695 me too.

To remind you all, I wanted to know if anyone is trying out putting the Devnagri script in Linux. And what do I get -- a lot of advice about what needs to be done, but no response about who is going about doing it or trying to get it done. If you all are going to just discuss about the problems, then we will never get it done. And if you think that someone else ( from the gnome community ) is going to come and do it, then you are very much mistaken. Simply because they don't know the script. Or are you waiting for a 'commercial company' to do it so that you can flame it ?? and still not put any effort in making it yourself ???? It is pathetic to see that all that you people are doing is argue with each other and that leaves you no nearer to the solution than where we started from. A lot of gyan here I know, but this thread really pissed me off. It seems that you all don't want to really make this work, but are associated with this just because it is 'hip' to be in the Linux community. vibhu..

Thanks for complements Vibhu, do you realise how many of us here take our 'paying' jobs seriously? Projects like this not only require time but also the rate of work done is also important. In India, where you have to slog your balls off to get a decent sa 10k/month which is hardly sufficient in Cities like Bombay/Banglore or stay in Jamnagar RIL refinery for a sort of cooler lifestyle, I think your questions are not going to gather much weight. Anyway, do one thing. Write a proper driver for Yamaha ymh724 PCI card and put it on the list and then you may publicly screw anyone on the list. I mean, what is this, man?

With Linux the problem is that the card REALLY needs to be nearly 100% SB compatible and noton Windows only.. I mean, lower level yet. > I have not given up... ISA card, that I have, works fine.

The point is this -- it seems that we ( myself included ) are more inclined to give a lot of advice about how things are supposed to turn out. But we don't really work so much on how we can ourselves achieve this. So I thought that lets not just sit and wait for others to make such things, but actively work on getting it done. I am also working for a cmmercial company. I had Linux as a hobby in college, and it is only recently that I have started working seriously on it. Even I can't find all the time in the world to devote myself to this activity. That is why I thought up of tying myself with someone who is already trying to do it. I can't say that I am a guru that I can write device drivers myself. However, if you are willing - lets give writing a driver for the card that you specified. It might take long, but let us at least try this out. vibhu.. ----- Original Message ----- From: Rohit To: Sent: Tuesday, March 14, 2000 9:40 AM Subject: [LIH] Flame : Internationalizing Linux in Hindi. > VIBHU RISHI wrote: > > A lot of gyan here I know, but this thread really pissed me off.

U should note that gcc-2.95 is to be used for specific CPU optimizations. My initscripts are derived from sysvinit-2.78-2. There is no problem in running this kernel except for two.

After selecting packages from the custom install screen, I select the edit partition information -> Delete the existing DOS partition -> Create Linux partitions as - / = 350M swap = 32M /usr = 600M /home = 1000M When I select next to proceed for installation, I get the message that says that the packages can not be installed as the size of partition is smaller than the packages selected. However, the total size of packages is close to 300M. Any clues?

I have a feeling that mutt has problems when things are split into different lines in .muttrc. I believe only the last one takes effect. Rewrite the above line as: mailboxes $MAIL =lih =lugbom and tell us if the problem still persists. > btw, how do you read mail in mutt ? 'm' opens a new compose window. To read mail in a different mailbox, type 'c', and then enter the name of the mailbox. '?' gives a list of mailboxes, where you can navigate with the arrow keys. '=' can be used as a short cut for $HOME/Mail. And, of course, tab completion works. '!' is a shortcut for $MAIL (usually /var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME). If a mail arrives in one of the mailboxes listed in 'mailboxes', then the 'c' command offers that mailbox as default (in the order in .muttrc).

But to my regret i found that the installation did boot off the cd but took so long and didnot recognise my logitech mouse. Moreover, i gave it a 590mb partition (2nd pri. part.) and 20mb swap space (even though it never suggested it needed one.). Next i selected all the files in custom installation and asked it to start but the installer just diplays "Preparing initial setup..." or something similar and keeps writting to the disk for more than half and hour (at 1% itself!). Next i did the same thing but selected only one single package to instal. this time it went on well but when i started corel linux it says "configuring hardware.." and just stops there while writting to the hard disk infrequently (i waited to more than 25 min. ) I have a pentium 100 with 32 mb ram and 2.1 gb hdd. Can someone tell me how to get the installation up and running ?

Make sure you remove any peer connection before u try this gizmo. if (any doubts about connection){ refer to /usr/doc/mgetty*/faxasscanner ( something like that); } ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- Jiju Thomas Mathew Linux registered user #154193 -- http://counter.li.org From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Mar 13 22:36:24 2000 Received: from e22.nc.us.ibm.com (e22.nc.us.ibm.com [32.97.136.228]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 59B62380F6 for ; Mon, 13 Mar 2000 22:36:15 -0800 (PST) Received: from southrelay03.raleigh.ibm.com (southrelay03.raleigh.ibm.com [9.37.3.210]) by e22.nc.us.ibm.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id BAA21086; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 01:18:20 -0600 Received: from DemiUrge.in.ibm.com ([9.184.199.132]) by southrelay03.raleigh.ibm.com (8.8.8m2/NCO v2.06) with ESMTP id BAA51058; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 01:36:01 -0500 Received: by DemiUrge.in.ibm.com (Postfix, from userid 1001) id 087B458812; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 12:06:24 +0530 (IST) To: Javid Khan Cc: Linux India Mailing List Subject: Re: RedHat 6.2 From: Syed Khader Vali X-Operating-System: Turing OS XCVII X-URL: http://www.sidcarter.com/ Organization: Sid Carter Inc.

I am quite stuck up with ppp and desparately need all you geeks help. This has come to point, that i will be losing respect among people if i donot solve this out. So please help. I am trying to setup a ppp server for win98/nt users to dialin to connect to internet. I have successfully set up the dial in thru mgetty. when users dialin thru the client the server is connected and the login and password comes up. after logging and typing ppp at the prompt (i have setup an alias to pppd in bashrc) the ppp daemon starts up. but when f7/continue is pressed after displaying verifying password. it displays wrong password,try again. What parameters do i have to give in the options file, my modem is connected to ttyS1, what options should i give in options.ttyS1 file. I am not able to understand that why is this verifiaction done when the user is already authenticated when he comes to the shell prompt after logging in. does ppp automatically routes all the http requests to the server after the connection ppp is maintained or some setting has to setup on the server. further i am a little confused whether win98 requires PAP authentication by default. they are option in OPTIONS file saying +ppd or -ppd , peer authorisation required or not etc. what options do i need to setup from win98 client. futher can anybody help in pointing some resource for setting up ppp with client as win98.(i have gone thru ppp howto) Thanks From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Mar 13 22:50:37 2000 Received: from dwarpal.wipsys.soft.net (dwarpal.wipsys.soft.net [164.164.127.8]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1F1EA380AF for ; Mon, 13 Mar 2000 22:50:14 -0800 (PST) Received: from ace.wipsys.soft.net (ace.wipsys.soft.net [164.164.29.18]) by dwarpal.wipsys.soft.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA02128 for ; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 12:22:15 +0530 (IST) Received: from gateway ([164.164.29.65]) by ace.wipsys.soft.net (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with SMTP id AAA4114 for ; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 12:17:15 +0530 Message-ID: <005d01bf8d82$0eae6bc0$411da4a4@wipsys.soft.net> From: "VIBHU RISHI" To: Subject: Re: internationalizing in hindi Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2000 12:21:54 +0530 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2314.1300 X-Archive-Number: 200003/723 i get flamed but I also got the answers - thanks guys. ----- Original Message ----- From: Arun Sharma To: Sent: Tuesday, March 14, 2000 11:10 AM Subject: Re: [LIH] internationalizing in hindi > On Tue, Mar 14, 2000 at 09:24:46AM +0530, VIBHU RISHI wrote: > > > my initial post still remains unanswered guys > > As I have said before, coming up with a Devanagari TTF font that gets > rendered nicely by X and usable with yudit is what we need. > > Try to help out: > > http://freetype.sourceforge.net/old_index.html > > I haven't tried their auto hinter - it might make devanagari fonts more > readable. > > -Arun > > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > For information on this and other Linux India mailing lists check out > http://lists.linux-india.org/ > From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Mar 13 22:54:24 2000 Received: from Snail.RiverRun.STPN.Soft.NET (unknown [12.10.193.12]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D92E8383C5 for ; Mon, 13 Mar 2000 22:54:12 -0800 (PST) Received: from RiverRun.COM ([172.16.4.244]) by Snail.RiverRun.STPN.Soft.NET (8.8.7/8.8.7) with ESMTP id MAA00682 for ; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 12:20:13 +0530 Message-ID: <38CDE306.B75B8EC8@RiverRun.COM> Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2000 12:28:14 +0530 From: Mannu Kalra Organization: River Run Software Group X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Help with installation of Corel Linux!

It is tough to write a device driver for a chemical engineer trying hard to pick up in a software firm itself :-D But yes, I promise you this much, after my startup, which is completely based on Linux [In English] picks up, goes public and I am free with more time at my hands, I am gonna develop a sound card, by paying people, rather than sitting and doing somehting I don't know a bit about, which will be equivalent of what Crusoe is to Microprocessor.

I have been on this list for 2 years and found that 80% mail are related to display, sound and mail problem. And if some one opens with security a related topic, he is threatened to be thrown out. Why ? Is the linux is limited to only display, sound and mail problem. I know there are many people on this list who are managing the important server, Do they know ? - linuxconf is venerable to buffer over flow - crotab is the latest hackers choice for attack - man command can be locally exploitable. - dump has big security hole. - running suid telnetd by any user with - n option will wipe out passwd file. And the list is very looooooooong. Why these are not discussed on this list because some will boot his as* from the list? So please do not discourage security related topics to this list even if they are posted by a hacker. Most of the lister have an account on vsnl /dot server and any security related discussion can not be out context. I receive an average 10 kb a spam mail every day, just because server admin are not in position to maintain their server properly. I do not want some one peeking in to my mail box as it has mails from my overseas customer. If any discussion on this list is going help vsnl to set the things right, it will be beneficial to listers only. And Sibayan can not called as cracker if the root account of cl server is offered on platter to him. If you keep doors and lockers of your house open, and a burglar strikes, cops will blame you first. It is every ones duty to keep his house in order first and then blame others. Having said this, I am not afraid any one booting my as* from the list, because then list will confined to display, sound and mail problems, which certainly does not interest me.

This has less to do with the sysadmins, particularly in case of VSNL/DoT it has all to do with not a having a clear, official policy to deal with spammers, of not having an AUP designed to be anti-UCE. I do not want some one peeking in to my mail box as > it has mails from my overseas customer. > If any discussion on this list is going help vsnl to set the things right, > it will be beneficial to listers only. > > And Sibayan can not called as cracker if the root account of cl server is > offered on platter to him. The root a/c being "offered on a platter" as you put it is not the same thing as Sibayan had originally posted as having tried the stuff many times over and on multiple servers. I gather that you do keep track of comp. sec.mailing lists. Since you express your concern about VSNL/DoT users, who as you rightly say should get a more secure service, may I point it out that Sibayan had ***never*** bothered to inform VSNL sysadmins about the prevailing situations as he had found them in. However in this case I am willing to give Sibayan the benefit of doubt in his favor, although it is rather difficult to do so. > If you keep doors and lockers of your house open, > and a burglar strikes, cops will blame you first. It is every ones duty to > keep his house in order first and then blame others. Sure, but then "his house" is "his property"... in other words private to the individual concerned... there /are/ laws against trespassing, leave alone stealing in most parts of the civilized world. And you don't necessarily make a Robin Hood out of a burgler. --Indra.

Pavri. forced the electrons to say: > one more query, when I close a mailbox and then re-open it, the messages > get marked as old even when they have not been read. Do I fiddle with the > set mark_old ? its commented out at present. From mutt's documentation: \begin{quote} mark_old Type: boolean Default: yes Controls whether or not Mutt makes the distinction between new messages and old unread messages. By default, Mutt will mark new messages as old if you exit a mailbox without reading them. The next time you start Mutt, the messages will show up with an O next to them in the index menu, indicating that they are old. In order to make Mutt treat all unread messages as new only, you can unset this variable. \end{quote} Also, note that the entries in .muttrc are the default values. So, if the line set mark_old exists in your muttrc, then it means that the default behaviour of mutt is to mark messages as old. If you don't want that behaviour, then commenting out this line will not work - you will have to explicitly give unset mark_old in your .muttrc.

If someone is faced with a breakin attempt on his servers, lots of us here do help. In fact, I ~have~ helped a few people (such as Binand) secure their mailservers.

Anyone who reads bugtraq / cert / even reads the security updates posted on the redhat / any *nix site is welcome to all this info and lots more. So, what's your point? Raju has, in the past, posted lots of mails from the redhat / debian lists, bugtraq etc, warning about these vulnerablities and detailing the fix. He has NOT, on the other hand, broken into my (or anybody else's) server and boasted about it. Raju -- how about resuming those periodic "security update" posts? >Why these are not discussed on this list because some will boot his as* from >the list? Search the list archives. >So please do not discourage security related topics to this list even if >they are posted by a hacker. I have posted such stuff - but I have detailed the fixes. I have not boasted "I have cracked vsnl, I have cracked xyz server" ... (and there is nothing to boast about downloading lame h4x0r t00lz / learning age old cracks, and trying them on lamebrain servers). In fact, another member of LI-H mailed me offlist just the other day, asking what he should do about people portscanning his server to look for open ports etc to break in. That sort of stuff is perfectly acceptable on the list. >Most of the lister have an account on vsnl /dot server and any security >related discussion can not be out context. I receive an average 10 kb a spam That can be remedied to some extent, and CAUCE India is trying to convince VSNL ... but you cannot sit on your butt and blame vsnl for anything and everything. Check out stuff like Spamicide / Spam Hater (for 'doze) and Spam Bouncer for Linux (warning - this is advanced procmail). >mail every day, just because server admin are not in position to maintain >their server properly. I do not want some one peeking in to my mail box as Then use vsnl only to connect to the net and get an account elsewhere, where you can be sure of having a secured server. For what it is worth, most of the situation is remedied now - at least VSNL has substantially upgraded a lot of the software they are running .... you are not likely to find h4x0ring VSNL that easy now that they are running 8.9.x / postfix, and most servers (at least in the larger cities) have updated their kernels etc as well. It can't change overnight, but VSNL ~is~ changing, thanks mainly to Mr.G.P.Singh, sysadmin of VSNL Bombay, who has been working very closely with us. Several VSNL servers were on the RBL till he upgraded them and got the blacklisting removed. >If any discussion on this list is going help vsnl to set the things right, >it will be beneficial to listers only. Or rather, it will encourage enough people to think that the average linux user in India is still full of script kiddies (I won't even dignify breaking into VSNL servers by calling it "cracking"). >And Sibayan can not called as cracker if the root account of cl server is >offered on platter to him.

It is every ones duty to If I am as careless as that, they ~will~ blame me first, but that does not mean they won't arrest the burglar when they find him. Plus the fact that cracking (and rooting) a box disrupts services for hundreds of users while you are sitting playing around - and that does not take into the possible damage caused by some half baked h4x0r roaming around at will. If you have anything further to say on this subject - take it to Linux India General or mail me offlist.

After selecting packages from the custom install screen, I select the edit partition information -> Delete the existing DOS partition -> Create Linux partitions as - / = 350M swap = 32M /usr = 600M /home = 1000M When I select next to proceed for installation, I get the message that says that the packages can not be installed as the size of partition is smaller than the packages selected. However, the total size of packages is close to 300M. Any clues?

Given the fact that our main development focus is on XFree86-4.0 and that the 3.3.x releases are intended mostly to fix some bugs and get out new drivers to the public, we opted not to include X11R6.4 in XFree86-3.3.x.

While I don't suggest doing ps2pdf and viewing it in acrobat, I find that acrobat does a much nicer job of rendering the text in a readable manner compared to gv + anti-aliased fonts + magnification. Also, acrobat has a flaky scrolling behavior (try holding your down arrow key for a few seconds and see acrobat take 15 mins to process your keystrokes and refresh the screen). It also has a high startup time. PDF is also very ubiquitous - all kinds of manuals and government forms are published in PDF and I'm yet to see anyone beat Acrobat at that. Also, if you're using latex, try pdflatex. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Tue Mar 14 16:14:36 2000 Received: from md3.vsnl.net.in (md3.vsnl.net.in [202.54.6.35]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B8C3A38051 for ; Tue, 14 Mar 2000 16:14:24 -0800 (PST) Received: from md3.vsnl.net.in (IDENT:lvgandhi@[202.54.70.209]) by md3.vsnl.net.in (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id FAA11029 for ; Wed, 15 Mar 2000 05:42:59 +0530 (IST) Message-ID: <38CED5C3.DD793F34@md3.vsnl.net.in> Date: Wed, 15 Mar 2000 05:43:55 +0530 From: "L.V.Gandhi" Reply-To: lvgandhi@vsnl.com X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.61 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.2.12-20 i686) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Linux India Subject: corel linux Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200003/779 I tried to install corel linux.

Though resolution comes down as i can perceive, only less than half screen is shown, where it is difficult to read and install. Is there any way to text install? or to reduce the resolution? help will be appreciated. Further from its debs, I found it had only navigator. Is it netscape?

If it is a new one, then most probably it would be so, since many of the new floppies come pre-formatted with FAT filesystem. Use the command mount -tvfat /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy If you want to format the floppy with the Linux filesystem (ext2), then use the format command. Once, you have the Linux file system, you can mount a floppy directly using mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy I hope it solves your problem__________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

What they provide is an on-board card that goes directly to the KU band VSAT. Unfortunately Linux does not support this card and NIC users are *forced* to use Windows (for which NIC provides drivers). I have on several occasions requested NIC to stop this practice since it forces users to use things like WinProxy to make maximum use of NIC service. On the other hand, I have also requested the manufacturers of the card to give specs so that we could develop Linux drivers for the same. Both have not responded.

In the course of poking around if I do find a security hole/problem then it is my duty to contact the sysadmin and inform him of it. There is a dividing line between poking around the system to see the limits of what you are allowed and actually cracking into the system with malice aforethought. for example the lynx exploit which was mentioned was something which any authorized user should be allowed to try. it is the sysadmin's fault if it succeeds, but it is also the user's duty to make the sysadmin aware of this weakness. I feel that many people who found these weaknesses shirked in that duty which caused VSNL to shutdown shell access. If knowledgeable shell users had sent the sysadmins these exploits and also detailed the means by which to plug the holes then I feel VSNL would not have been able to so easily justify their arbitrary action in shutting down all shell access. What say you all Please reply on linux-india-general if you are subscribed to it.

This question belongs to -help (it's ok to ask on -general, but it generally gets a little rough out here at times :-) You'll have to be more specific about the card. There is one particular card for which there are no free drivers due to the lack of specs from Yamaha.

Please run hdparm -tT /dev/hda and let us know when you get disk-read rates >10 MBPS Thanks Rohit From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Mar 15 00:12:05 2000 Received: from web3801.mail.yahoo.com (web3801.mail.yahoo.com [204.71.203.172]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 39A6A3831E for ; Wed, 15 Mar 2000 00:12:03 -0800 (PST) Message-ID: <20000315081202.16892.qmail@web3801.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [202.54.43.121] by web3801.mail.yahoo.com; Wed, 15 Mar 2000 00:12:02 PST Date: Wed, 15 Mar 2000 00:12:02 -0800 (PST) From: Kalidas Balakrishnan Subject: Postgresql problem in java To: linux-india@lists.linux-india.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Archive-Number: 200003/814 Hai all, I am using postgresql as backend for java programming.

I have been able to get 14 MBPS from disk-reads only with *Interesting*. I too have a samsung 8.4GB HDD :-). I have a P-II @400MHz, with an intel 810 motherboard. In fact I subscribed to this list only when I was trying to get my machine give me some decent performance in case of HDD. Anyway, in my case my disk *consistenly* gives me 19+MB/s with hdparm -c1 -d1. I don't think whether its a cause for concern, as a *lot* depends on the IDE interface on your mobo. Do one thing, when you run hdparm -tT, monitor the CPU usage with top/panel_applets. If the disk is being used as UDMA, this should be pretty low - 1-4%.

Can anybody help me with this ? Minicom as shipped with RH doesn't run for non-root users directly. You need to login as root, start minicom, configure it, save the settings as default and exit. From then on you can use minicom as a normal user. For help about minicom, start minicom and press Ctrl-A Z. I am attaching a default config file, that you can copy to your /etc and hopefully it should work. One final point, you have to have /dev/modem as a symlink to the proper serial port device (/dev/ttyS0 or /dev/ttyS1). Do a ln -s ttyS[01] modem from /dev dir as root to properly set the link. If modem is on COM1 (in dos) then say ln -s ttyS0 modem, if its on COM2 then say ln -s ttyS1 modem. HTH, Kedar.

I wrote a small program in which I have used certain ioctls, which are used by the fdisk command, to get the partition details for an external disk. so far so good! it returns the table successfully. But when I remove the cable connecting the disk, i am still able to get the partition details, through the buffers(this is the Linux's implementation to make life easier!!) What i need to do is read from the disk directly! So, is there any way I can invalidate the buffer or bypass it and read from the disk directly. Or is there any other ioctl that will flush the buffer for me so that the next read will be done directly from the disk !! As far as possible I want to Avoid making changes at the Kernel level !!

With the 2.3.x series, I think you can specify a flag to open (O_something) that'll open in raw mode bypassing the buffer. > Or > is there any other ioctl that will flush the buffer for me so that the next > read will be done directly from the disk !! Yes, there is one - hdparm uses it to calibrate disk read performance.

Such a bug does exist in Pentium CPUs. Intel did publish work arounds in *BSDs in binary only form first. Subsequently, Linux guys reverse engineered the work around which I remember was a little smarter. I don't remember the actual details. Bottomline: every multi user OS worth its salt has a work around for this bug. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Mar 15 18:33:41 2000 Received: from gatekeeper.mahindrabt.com (unknown [202.54.20.162]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AA2A438050 for ; Wed, 15 Mar 2000 18:33:25 -0800 (PST) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by gatekeeper.mahindrabt.com (8.9.3/8.8.6) with UUCP id HAA13667 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Thu, 16 Mar 2000 07:47:19 +0530 Received: from mahindrabt.com ([10.3.2.185]) by intranet.chand.mahindrabt.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id HAA29078 for ; Thu, 16 Mar 2000 07:52:49 +0530 Message-ID: <38D043C8.73F2A66D@mahindrabt.com> Date: Thu, 16 Mar 2000 07:45:36 +0530 From: Rohit X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.5 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Problem with Xwindows after installing Star office.

That depends on what your email client is. If you're using a high-end model like mutt then yes - you'll have to get a basic sendmail.cf (a simple one that farms off all the real work to your ISP's mail relay will do, and it's quite easy to set up!) If using - say - "kmail" then outgoing can be easily handled by kmail directly talking to your ISP's SMTP port. > 2. can fetchmail fetch mails faster than say Netscape's mail pop3 > client ? If both are using the same protocol, essentially no - they should be about the same. Netscape, being a GUI, may have a little overhead, but if you're on a modem line that's irrelevant.

I had tried out this option also. Though it took quite a long time ( about 5 secs ) it still gave me the geometry of the disk when the cable was pulled. But it also logged an error message in the /var/log/messages file, which was something like this: ::scsi disk I/O error: dev 08:00, sector 0 ::scsi channel 0: reseting for second half of retries ::SCSI bus is being reset for host 0 channel 0 ::SCSI disk error : host 0 channel 0 id 4 lun 0 ***return code = 26030000**** My problem is that I do not know how to interpret these messages and especially the return code. Any help in this regard will be helpfull. TAI, Regards, Sandeep Sundaram. _____________________________________________ Free email with personality!

I remember using this to crash a slackware 3.?? machine while I was in IITB. It didn't crash RedHat even then (5.0, I think). RHL used a kernel which had a workaround enabled against this bug. The kernel, when booting, used to say, "Pentium CPU detected with f00f bug - workaround enabled". Even now you can see if the bug exists in your CPU - cat /proc/cpuinfo, and look for f00f_bug. If it says yes, then it exists (and most likely the workaround is enabled). So, this code will not crash Linux systems, I think. I cannot say about other operating systems, though.

I think there is a way to get the geometry using some BIOS calls too. Sorry, I forget - were you using fdisk ? It might be using the other method when the disk read failed.

So type 'man rpm' at shell prompt and you will get enough information. Otheerwise, in short rpm stands for RedHat Package Manager. These are installable programs. A .rpm files contains files list in a perticular application, their destination location, actions performed prior to and after installation and of course compressed application programs. rpm is also a program that is an interface to handle *.rpm files. It can install/uninstall files, query for packages installed on specific criteria, search etc. It stores installed package information in a central database that can be used by tools like kpackage and gnorpm(Of course rpm program uses itself too). .rpm file format is brought by RadHat and supported by many other linux distributions. There are couple of other package format also like .deb under debian. Hope you find this useful. Bye Shridhar P.S. The best feature of rpm is you can definitely and completely remove a package. Unlike windows there are no 'files shared by some other programs and unused dll cluttering registry.'

RPM works only on systems that use RPM to manage packages. These include RedHat and SuSE. Slackware is an example of a distribution that doesn't use RPM. > you can said in another way as it is a software installer. Plus a lot of other things. Having said that... RPM is two things - a file format for packaging software, and the program that understands this format, and can install or uninstall the software thus packaged. It was developed by RedHat Software, and is placed in the public domain under the GPL. RPM can be used to install packages in a painless way. For example, if package foo needs package bar to function, then RPM can detect this and issue you a warning (and refuse to install package foo) if bar is not installed. RPM is similar to Add/Remove Programs in Windows, but much more powerful. Some of the situations in which RPM helps a sysad are: 1. Ease of installation/uninstallation 2. Verification of existing packages 3. Which package owns this file? 4. I want to upgrade package foo, but I don't know what all this will break 5. I want to remove package foo, but I don't know what all this will break 6. I want to install package foo, but will it conflict with package bar? (The sendmail/qmail conflict) But RPM has its share of disadvantages also. Like, 1. You have to be satisfied with what the distributor packaged for you. You cannot enable/disable certain features. (For example, mutt RPMs are usually distributed with PGP disabled and POP3 enabled. My requirement is exactly the reverse - with PGP and without POP3). 2. RPM cannot find packages that are not installed via RPM. A package that you installed from the sources can occassionally break RPM's functioning. 3. Not all linux distributions support RPM.

Visit www.linux.com www.linux.org etc. and read & understand whatever you can first. Idea two: Also visit the various 'flavours' of linux [RedHat Mandrake Debian Slackware etc] on their websites. All this pre-reading will help you decide which is best for you (in terms of installation, hardware requirements, maintenance, etc) Idea three: Read some of the Linux-India digests (www.linux-india.org). This will give you information on how to procure linux in India. One method is to get it from PC Quest CD. But remember this is only one method. Another method is to join a LUG (Linux User Group) falling in your area and borrow a CD. If you have access to a good internet connection (very rare!!) then you can directly download from the ftp sites. BTW, where will you get a 486 in this day and age?!!

According to one of the files in the fetchmail source distribution (the file "ip-up" in the contrib directory), pppd masks out several signals during the run of the ip-up script. This reportedly causes fetchmail to lose timeout signals and thus appear to hang in case of connection failures. Don't know if the problem has been fixed in newer versions of fetchmail (and/or pppd).

Don't you read the mails that are posted to the list fully? If you had taken the effort to read the entire thread you would have noticed my post about how posts of this nature SHOULD be prefixed with the 'COMMERCIAL' tag (http://lists.linux-india.org/archive/linux-india-help/200003/msg00973.html) 2. The rule-of-thumb in the Linux India mailing lists is a warning for first infraction and a blacklisting for repetitions. So please be warned that if this is repeated again your email address will be placed on a 'watch' list. 3. Did you have to quote the entire mail that was posted by Satya?

The distribution is available from our ftp site or from one of the mirror sites. Source and one or two binary distribution are available as of 9 March. Other binary distributions will follow shortly. Before downloading and installing the binary distributions, please read the Installation Notes. If you're looking for a stable version of XFree86, you might be better off with the latest 3.3.x release. There is some basic information comparing the hardware support in 3.3.x with 4.0 in the driver status document.

In one place, the server also doubles as a dial out server. The dial in and dial out server are connected to two different modems (one on COM1 and one on COM2). Dial in works using the "login" authentication. When modem connection is established, the server throws up the "login:" prompt and user logs in using his account. Then at the prompt, she types in "ppp" (which is aliased to run pppd with certain parameters). This establishes the PPP connection between server and client. All these are taken from the HOWTO and the HOWTO states that "pppd" must be suid root so that ordinary users can also execute PPP. The problem we are having is that in this particular instance, where we have both (dial in and dial out) servers, the permissions of "pppd" gets reset to 755 even though we had initially set it to rwsr-xr-x. Because of this dial in server does not work and user has to change the permissions to make it work. The server is untouched (nobody works on the server as such), so we rule out user problems. What we want to know is if anybody has encountered similar problems (where permissions are changed automagically)? Thanks for your response in advance, -Krishnan.

The machine which incidentally 500 MHz PIII 128RAM 4.3+8.4 GB HDDs with existing Win98 SVGA 15''--Samsung 3D AGP Open GL support The installation autoboots from the CD on restarting, but the promised graphical DRAKX tool never started(this was also seen on 2 other installs, though the distro promises it, of course-maybe some probs with the h/w). Then it drops you into the Redhat type blue-screen install and asks for all the nonsense about your keyboard, then type of install-and here, you run into the first glitch, says "No partitions detected". So, Mr/Ms Installer, exit install, and partition the disk for a swap(in my case 32-hough not necessary) and a native /. Restart, and the installation proceeds all over again, I chose the Custom install and then Development, package copying starts (sit back and wait for close to half and hour). Then asks you to set the root password, then add users[the num lock was on during the install, AFAIK, RHL 6.1 does not enable NumLock during the install and it can be easy to key in passwords]. Create a boot floppy, install LILO. Then add your printer, it autodetected mine, and then the most daunting, X installation, it reported a problem with its autoconfigure and gave a screen to choose from all options, monitors, refresh rate, etc....After selecting the correct settings, X started at 1024*768 24bpp. Then save settings, and installation over, system, reboots. And DID it run!! It boots directly to X and default is KDE, though you have a choice to change to so many that it was a welcome change...Everything seemed to work fine, so ran sndconfig, set up mail, connections to the net, and connected....no problems...it comes bundled with NetscapeComm4.7x. TOTAL INSTALL TIME < 1hr. So great Then what....perhaps best for new users is the Automount feature hda1, hdb1 CDROM, fdd...WINE comes bundled with the distribution and when MS Word was turned on, it was fast enough--it feels like you are working under Win98(if that should make you feel any happier) Now for one of the goodies(my favourite), XEmacs, What is it!! For anyone who has used Emacs and known its ripping power, this is a surprise and well....this is better, I won't say any more... The nagatives--the GUI install DRAKX never materialsed, then during the old GUI install, some lines appear and stay on screen, so it does not look neat, otherwise, fast and efficient. Not many more Concluding, ML7.0 is for the new user taking a plunge, inslallation is easy, pretty much all the hardware is supported, even the naggling SiS--tried the 6215 and 6326 in the machine after the install, the first one works fine and so does the second, but with 6326, Linux recognises 4MB Vram, so u have to edit the config file and set it to 8MB, then in works better)For the slightly older user, many many pluses, Pentium optimised kernel and specially recompiled applications, so everything works faster and better, then different security levels from *low* to *paranoia*...On the whole, very significant and welcome changes over RHL 6.1. Right now my friend(whose m/c the distro is installed on) is feeling her way around, she has no techie background is computers and is completely new to Linux, she's enjoying it, we have a new convert:) TIA Sthitaprajna PS>> Some days back there was a post on XEmacs, I would need some help there, so can users get back??

SCSI drives usually aren't listed while bootup, since SCSI drivers are more often than not modules. What you need to do is: 1. Figure out the name of your SCSI controller - you can find this in /proc/pci. 2. Load the appropriate module from /lib/modules//scsi The module will detect the disks attached to the controller. 3. Access them as /dev/sda, /dev/sdb etc. Tip: If your controller is Adaptec, the module to load is aic7xxx.o.

The "expert text" installation is nice!! But in some typical cases the X based installation goes fine. The partitioning tool in X based installation is quite jazzy.

The official pack of Mandrake7 comes with cool stuff like IBM DB2, IBM-JDK, SOffice, .......

I have many friends who are intimidated by the console stuff. So I thought I would try it. I can recommend Mandrake to a newcomer. Installation is good. The negative I noticed is that even though the initial boot up had fb mode enabled, the installed one comes up in plain text mode. Maybe passing some parameters to the kernel might change it.

Root Partition empty!! Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-Archive-Number: 200003/958 Hi all I was hacking some of the linux commands but now I got a serious problem. I have (rather, had) RHL 6.1 on an AMD k6@450 and with X working pretty happily on a SiS 6326. Yesterday I logged in as an ordinary user and gave the command $mail root < /sbin/dump /dev/hda9 ...or something like that /* hda9 is my / partition of 2.5 GB */ Then I logged in as root and it said there was mail for me When I executed the command "mail" it gave all kinds of nonsense about errors about some inodes etc so I panicked and gave #df This said my / partition had 1.2 GB used but 0 MB free!! Then I gave.. #shutdown -nfr now because i didn't want it to check the root filesystem. When I rebooted it said "kernel panic:VFS: unable to mount root fs on 03:09" when i booted off the CD and mounted my partitions the "/" partition is empty but "/boot" is still safe.

Since i tried it out on 2 machines and found that on one it gave a cool graphical install option much like as in RHL6.1. On the other(the first one i tried it on) it gave the drab RHL6.0 type interface. What I found is that you neeed to have atleast one swap partition of atmost 32Megs(124 etc does NOT help, as I find the machine with 124 Swap crawling whereas the one with 3 partitions of 32 megs each is doing a shade better... remember both are 200MhzPentium/16Meg boxes)if u r using something with less than 32 Megs . the native partition has to be specified as ext2/exfias since giving a option of linux native does not somehow result in the desired partition being detected by the installation automatically. I used Ranish Partition tool it's the best so far (find it on the August 99 Cd of Chip). What's more there's wine for the diehard Windoes addict. Thoough on my Boxes all I've been able to run using wine is the clumsy calc.exe. As expected any emulator for windoes will also be similarly resources HUNGRY! As I faced problem with the mandrake 7 installation, I made a kickstart file to automate the process and it makes hickless installation. If anyone is interested, then I can share it. Tell us more about your kickstart file Mrinal. Find it okai for the techies as well.the installion is simple enough for the non-techie enduser.

However I was using cdrom icon on the KDE Desktop to mount CD from user login ( i.e. : login rajesh in my case ). This was in Red Hat 6.1. However in SuSe it looks to be altogether a different story. I was expecting that whatever is working under Red Hat will work in SuSe since basically all are Linux distributions, but here it looks as if something is fishy. Anynody correct me if I am wrong.

I should be able to run it as any user by doing a network install, but can't do that because I can't login as any other user from the command line. xinit and xdm don't run, currently kdm runs, which lets me get along.

Currently running Wingate. Wingate server 192.168.0.1. Clients have 192.168.0.x static IP address. Peer to peer network. Wasn't set-up by. The management is currently skeptical about my Linux project so I don't want to change anything on the client side and Wingate side so that it continues to boot and operate in Wingate environment until I finish up configuring Linux and showing it off. My plan : enable SAMBA, web server, internal email, internet email, proxy server, internet connection sharing, demand dialling by tommorow. Started today. Installed RHL 6.0 from Chip CD. NIC is Realtek 8139. Gave the Linux server 192.168.0.1 so I don't have to fiddle with the client settings. Configured SAMBA, working fine. Apache web server working fine. Now I wanted internal email. Enabled POP3 and SMTP in inetd. In clients they were already set to use 192.168.0.1 as POP3 and SMTP server at port 110 and 25 so no change required. Opened user accounts in Linux. But send/receive from client takes a lot of time. Sometimes it times out at 'connecting to 192.168.01' and sometimes at 'Authrizing' and sometimes mails are sent/received after taking a lot of time. Haven't done any DNS setup till now. Is the trouble due to DNS server not set ? Any help is very much appreciated. I am hoping to finish off internal / internet email and internet connection sharing / proxy by tommorow.

RedHat carries sort distributed with GNU textutils-2.0. I dont have access to the SuSE 6.2 box at the moment so cant say. But it will probably be the textutils-1.xx series, going by your findings. Let me check the changelogs of the textutils package when it moved from 1.x to 2.0 and see what gives. Changing a basic function like sort in so drastic a manner seems strange. > On my FreeBSD box, which also has GNU sort, I get the SuSE behavior. Which I think is the "expected" behaviour. My scripts count on that happenning > Perhaps the change in behavior is specific to the sort version ? In which case, there should be some command line option that reverts to the older (and I dare say reasonable) behaviour. The later version seems to believe that '[' comes before [A-Za-z]. Queer. Thank you for your interest. I would really like to get to the bottom of this. I do tend to use sort freely.....

You have to edit /etc/conf.modules to enable the module of your sound card. Check that file to see if you sound card is supported and uncomment the lines to enable the kernel sound modules. I have got a Creative Ensonique PCI sound card which runs excellently under SuSe 6.3. SuSe 6.3 comes with alsa sound drivers. Does using alsa sound drivers and enabling modules in /etc/conf.modulesis the same ? Can anybody clarify ? Under Red Hat 6.1 I was unable to play midi files with my sound card. But under SuSe 6.3 midi filesrun beautifully and infact give better output( all instruments ) than windows. I am very happy withwhat I hear. Regarding your second question. Please specify which printer you are using so that we will be able to help you. You will have to use YaSt in SuSe to configure printer. Hope this helps.

A reverse DNS look up is performed when a host tries to access a service provided by the Linux server like telnet/FTP/POP3 etc. It first looks in the /etc/hosts table for the mappings and then the DNS server. This will cause a delay since there are no entries for the hosts in either the hosts table or the DNS finally timing out. Solutions - a) Add entries for all the hosts in /etc/hosts b) Maintain a DNS server c) Stop the identd from /etc/inetd.conf > Haven't done any DNS setup till now.

ALSA modules are incompatible with the OSS/Free drivers shipped with standard kernels. But ALSA does have backward compatible drivers for OSS/Free and there are ALSA compatible versions of the Enlightenment sound daemon. If u are using the OSS/Free drivers u should not use ALSA. If u are using ALSA don't use OSS/Free as they are backward compatible. It makes no sense to use ALSA and OSS/Free together. -- Shanu ROSS: I don't know what I'm gonna do. What am I gonna do?

This particular mail is created by WU imapd to keep track of the status of the mails in the mailbox. Whether they have been seen, deleted, answered etc. For this, imapd uses a library which was developed at WU itself. pine, being the brother of this imapd (which is shipped by default with most linux distros) also uses the same library to access mailboxes. So, whenever a mailbox is accessed via pine, this mail gets created. Since pine knows about this mail, it doesn't display this mail when showing a mailbox index. But, other mail clients (like mutt, in your case) don't know abou this mail, and they display it. You can safely delete it, but it will be created the next time you access this mailbox with either pine or wu-imapd.

Previously I had installed Linux on a 450MB harddisk partition. Although everything was working fine, I could not use all the features due to lack of disk space. So, I removed all my partitions and reinstalled Linux (using official REDHAT CD) on 1GB partition. The installation went smoothly as before. But, my X-windows is giving a lot of problems. It has become untolerable slow(Earlier it was quite fast). The command-prompt mode is working absolutely fine. Whenever I start the X-server, it takes a very long time to come up. I also get a warning message window with the following message Panel No response to the Save Yourself Command. The Program may be slow, stopped or broken. You may wait for it to respond or remove it. Along with the message, I also get two command buttons labelled REMOVE PROGRAM and CANCEL. If I choose CANCEL the window appears after some time(the system operation is still very slow). The same window comes again with the heading --- gmp I have tried re-installing Linux. But the problem continues. I have Pentium 166MMX system with 16MB RAM (Although it is less, the system was working just fine earlier). My Display Card is Cirrus Logic(which is autodetected) and monitor is LG 20i. (i have selected the lowest settings 800 * 600). I feel it may be a bug in Linux. Please help me at the earliest since the problem is hampering my development schedule. Hoping for a positive reply. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

That was my first reaction. Did some hunting and .... The problem seems to arise due to new POSIX standards that require that "sort" respect the locale settings in particular LC_COLLATE which requires that the locale describe the _order_ in which strings are to be compared. With this requirement I find that several programs that use strcmp() rather than the POSIXly correct strtoll() are broken. I now have two choices: I either either sed through my old code that used the deprecated strcmp() and replace with the correct function call, or change my locale settings so that sort behaves in the older fashion (that '[' comes _after_ '[0-9]'') Which brings me to my question: How do I change locale? I tried several tracks like setting environment varibles etc, but nada. Would an internationalizing guru come rescue me. This is much too hairy for me. > BTW, read your interview in TOI yesterday.

PS - If you are using RH 5.x, then do the same with /etc/mail/ip_allow. And if possible have a look at postfix - http://www.postfix.org. Its much easier to configure and use than sendmail.

The DNS is not working no matter what I do. I thought maybe I made some serious errors so I simply re-setup DNS by running Atul Chitnis DNS server setup script (part of pcqupdt script) from February 99 CD (RHL 5.2). So now my DNS is setup as set by the script. Is the DNS setup of RHL 5.2 any different from RHL 6.0 ? And do I need to have different arrangements when I'm offliline and when I'm online ? Basically what I'm trying to do is set Linux box so that IP Masq allows the 16 Win95 machines to share connection and send mails. Any advice and suggestion is really apreciated. Please don't flame.. I'm doing my homework - studying DNS-howtos etc but still need more guidance TIA Bharat PS: Thought I may install PCQ RHL 5.2 but it doesn't recognize Realtek RTL8139 NIC.

Dont worry, one of the advantages of using Linux (or any Unix) is that the system cannot be affected by the popular forms of "viurs", so you do not need any antivirus package. There are other mechanism using which somebody could crack into your Linux system. But if your's is a home system, chances are remote that somebody might crack into that. Still if you want, there are some software (Tripwire, I think) using which you can make your system secure. I dont use it myself, so I dont know the configuration details.

My HDD is going to go Kaput soon------ So I request urgent > help Usually I am not much help to anyone. :-D See if you can do something like this... 1. Find a norton's utilities suite or something that can work. From Win95 side. You may use the MS Disk-manager if available on your PC. 2. I guess there is nothing important on your Linux side already... so try and make some changes to your partition table [Like deleting one Linux partition] and save them. [Handle Linux partition for this since you are already running windows from your MS partition]. See if it asks something while saving the partition table information. it may tell you that it is going to automatically correct the problem.. let it. But before you try anything like this, do backup your important data.

The fact that you are using Linux should put to rest your worries. There is no point.. Linux is safe from them. People have had no threat from Linux viruses. Many for years.. only thing that can go wrong is that you unknowingly forward some attachment or executable which is infected. But, in any case, there is no way the VIRUS will do it. Rest assured, my employer's Linux server works without any shield and it is also an internet server. To tension mat lo.

But I have neither.And the partition table is intact. So why only the root partition went for a toss. Why didn't it write to the FAT partitions that were mounted at the same time and which could quite easily accomodate my / partition. Why did it get "formatted"? Is this a bug? As for having a backup, backup of what --the entire hard disk or the /home and on what a CD(s) or another partition??

Agreed, but I would like to add only one *very* important point. ***NEVER*** ever use the root account for normal usage. In particular, *never* read mails or browse the net while you are logged in as root. And yes, have a look at your /etc/aliases, and make sure that there is an alias for root, and that it points to the person who is acting as the administrator for the box. In essence make sure you have a line like this root: in your /etc/aliases. If not, add it, and then run newaliases, so that you will keep getting any mail sent to root - locally by cron jobs and from outside (which may or may not be malicious). As of now I am not aware of any way in which reading mail as root or browsing net as root can be exploited (although there may be some hidden exploits in netscape - you never know, its closed source afterall). So its not that doing these things would get you in trouble, but having good habits would go a long way in keeping the script kiddies out. Regards, Kedar.

Viruses have not been an entity in the past, but they ARE going to be a part of the future. There was a link to it on slashdot recently. Some guy has actually taken the pains to write a paper on it. Looking from a programmer point of view, if viruses could be written in DOS, they can be written in Linux too. The only problem would be that since Linux runs on multiple architectures, binary code will not execute on architectures other than that on which the virus was written with, but if u look in a way, the root scripts are some sort of virus, as in a networked system, getting control of a system is better than destroying it.

The driver decides what speed to run the gfx cards at. gfx cards can also be overclocked. In fact, EVERY single chip which has a clock speed can be overclocked and gfx cards are not an exception. But mostly only 3D accelerators are overclocked, since in 2D, there is little oportunity to make things go any faster. In 3D however, there is ample oportunity, to make the card faster by speeding up transformations and calculations, for which a math engine exists on the card, which runs at a particular clock speed. This speed, as i said is decided by the driver, and varies from one chipset to the other. Some decently written drivers provide an env var. to change the clock speed. I am only aware of this information for 3dfx cards, but it wouldn't be too hard to look into the source and find one, if u're driver offers the feature. But note, overclocked cards are not supported, and u're vendor may not even replace the card if it gets burnt after overclocking. Nikhil.

I simply can't understand why some people ( i wont take names ) ask such stupid questions. I don't claim to be a linux bond, but whatever little I know has been by reading /usr/doc and the man pages. Why can't junta atleast try to find an answer before posting standard questions most of which I am sure they'll find in the LINUX FAQ. It might be okay for u guys working in companies and having free net access but for guys like me who POP their mail through a lousy modem connection, it really is a pain. I understand that for most newbies LINUX might be a little intimidating, but beleive me the satisfaction you'll get when u get the answer to a nagging problem on your own by reading the docs/man pages is immense. Also create an account on your system ( avoid working as root ) and fiddle aroud. LInux is so great that u possibly can't screw up. Explore LINUX. For thats what its meant to be. Learn on your own. For the more difficult questions, there are a lot of linux bonds here. I hope everybody shares my views. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

You will please write a longer mail, intimating all of us about your experiences with Linux. My particular interests fall in the following catagory... 1. Framebuffered X, can be equal to/faster than XF86_SVGA for some well supported graphics card? 2. What else positive experiences you have had. 3. Can we totally do away with the graphics card?

Vinu, All that is required to create an Indian Linux Users Group (ILUG) in your town is enthusiasm and at least a couple of people. If I recall correctly, the Madras ILUG's first meeting was held in the grounds of IIT. The total number of attendees was 4 - three people and one lazy lizard which happened to stumble upon the meeting. ;-) Get together with other people who are interested in linux and plan to hold monthly meetings in some place (typically a college, scholl or friendly place of business). Register your ILUG's contact info with http://www.linux-india.org/ so that ithers in Tanjore looking for an ILUG can find you. Thaths -- "Just go ahead and sue me! Everybody else does.

I have a US ROBOTICS 56Kbps modem which was readily detected. I configured PPP using the RP3 dialer and connected to vsnl server. I gave the necessary parameters such as phone no., account name & passwd, DNS address etc. After some time, the system got connected. The meter started showing some readings also. But, when I started my netscape browser, no webpage was displayed. I get the message server not found. The same settings are working fine under Win95 & NT. What are the PPP diagnostics tools available? Is there any additional settings to be made. Also is there any autodialer kind of software available for Linux.

The mru should be less than mtu by atleast 16. Secondly mtu, mru and other host of variables are negotiated after the ppp link is established. The isp will first default to 1500 and then after negotiations it will be changed to desired value. To confirm run 'ifconfig ppp0' after fully establishing the connection. Lastly these variable need to be changed vary carefully after lots of experimentation, else your speed will drop dramatically.

The problem may not be that serious with dial out ISP but it is definitely very serious with DSL lines where your machine is always connected with the net.

True. It is best not to try and use these machines for servers etc.. definitely not for this purpose.. the desktops offer an optimum choice that way. You can use them as desktop PCs and servers, often at the same time, and the parts come out and go in and are replaced damn easily, in most cases... such is not the case with your Laptop/notebook. I would think twice before opening my laptop [iff I had one].. > You also have fewer choices in peripherals because of tight integration. Right again, but sometimes the removable HDD and interchangeability with another battery of FDD/CD Rom drive, and cute SCSI interface etc can be a big boon.

I have the (in)famous YMF724. What some ppl. refer as the Mercury 32-bit PCI sound card. I've got the docs for it from Yamaha, tho only to simulate the 8-Bit Sound Blaster mode. They've taken the docs off the site now. Its just a matter of manipulating a small PCI register. So it wasn't much of a job. I wrote the module, cuz the card has EXCELLENT sound in doze. Yamaha refused to give me the specs for the PCI registers. They told me that i had to sign an NDA, which i am against, in the spirit of Open Source. However, i managed to find a DOS program, from Yamaha, which plays 16-bit sound in DOS, w/o ANY drivers. That means its doing all the dirty work itself. I tried reverse engineering it, but all i manage to do is hang my system, while using multiple monitors to debug the silly thing. The program is a DOS4GW pmode exe, which makes it even more difficult to reverse engineer and make out the Assembly, even if i'm using a pmode debugger, on my second screen. I haven't yet tried debugging thru the serial port, but i think thats my next move, as i have some doubt that the changing of the active screen maybe causing some conflict. I need some DOS PCI programming pointers. I am pretty comfy with DPMI, but i've never done PCI stuff, in DOS. ISA is fine with me, but PCI... noooo! If someone can help me out in this aspect, i'd be grateful, so that i can write the driver and do something for the linux community something in return fer all its given me. thanx. Nikhil.

I have been following XFree86 since a long time, so i thought i'd just give a few pennies of mine.. :) > > > > 1. Framebuffered X, can be equal to/faster than > > XF86_SVGA for some well > > supported graphics card? The Frame Buffer is NOT accelerated in most cases, except for a few ATI, and MATROX cards. It is a simple solution for unsupported cards, which happen to be having a VESA 2.0 BIOS. AFAIK, it DOES NOT offer the same speed offered by the other accelerated servers, or the generic XF86_SVGA server, if u're card is one of the cards which is supported. XFree86 4.0 however has excellent speed improvements as DRI is used, which allows driver writers to implement acceleration into the driver itself, which is FASTER than the XAA used by the XF86_SVGA server, on all cards. I suggest using a server that supports u're card directly instead of running it on fbcon, as there is a considerable speed defect in the fbcon, as it is unaccelerated. > > > > 2. What else positive experiences you have had. The only +ve experience with the fb, is the startup boot logo! of course GGI's kgicon is MUCH faster than the kernel fb. > > 3. Can we totally do away with the graphics card? NO! All that the framebuffer offers is a linear mapping to the Video RAM of the gfx card, which is one of the salient features offered by VESA 2.0. So, instead of using the card instructions to draw, we just make a pointer to the buffer and start writing directly. In short, there is absolutely NO direct communication with the gfx card. It displays whatever we write to it. This prevents us from using the acceleration features that the card may provide - the reason for it being slow. U DO need a gfx card. There IS virtual framebuffer support, which just allocates memory and treates it as a framebuffer. If u have someway of using that info, maybe send it over the network, for some kind of remote rendering, then maybe u can do away with the gfx card. But if u want to see something - u need a gfx card. :) Nikhil. ILUG-HYD. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

CDAC people were busy at that time with their conference( some parallel progm. conf. last june probably) so that idea remained an idea for us. now i have time, energy, and that code but still no idea how that code can be worked on n-machines. if any of u is doing this kind of thing, and can provide the right pointers/suggestions, i would be very grateful. -- Rajeev _____________________________________________________ And like a phoenix , i rise from my own ashes tring:tring: +91-20-7474740/7474760 Xtn: 3077 From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Mar 23 01:06:29 2000 Received: from chalukya.wipsys.soft.net.

Dear Sharad, I am sure that those who know, will definitely help you, but to be able to do that correctly, can you please be more elaborative? Like.. What is the configuration of your backbone machine. What are the networking related packages that you already have on that. In your 'dumb-terminals', do you wish to boot those from a floppy drive or have you already got, or are willing to buy some hard-disks for them? Number of clients [dumb terminals] for your system? Do you wish to implement networked filesystem? and other information that you might find relevant?

What are the BURST transfer rates and if at all, how are these different from the sustained transfer rates when it comes to hardware communications?

I was very disturbed. Anyway you can get the root access as well as any forgotten password user access by using the following steps. ************************************DISCLAIMER****************************** *************** I'm giving you this information for emergency root access gain only. You shouldn't use this for other perpose **************************************************************************** ****************** 1. At LILO (LInux LOder) promt type "linux single".-------- It'll give you a single user interface. 2.Press enter. 3.Where ever you're doesn't matter, type "vipw" 4.You'll see something like this : a) root:FC6XUtvRxVcWU:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash halt:x:7:0:halt:/sbin:/sbin/halt Or b)root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash halt:x:7:0:halt:/sbin:/sbin/halt 5.If you see a), type ":q!" ;-) You've done you 70% job. 6.Then type "vi /etc/passdw" bingo passwd file'll open you'll see lines like a) and others. 7.Bring your cursor just after "root:" Remember after ":" 8.Press "x" - key of your keyboard 13 times. 9.Press "Esc" 10.Press ":wq" 11.Shut down and reboot your system. At the User promt type "root" leave the password promt blank and press "Enter" --------- You're in the "root" 12.If you see b), -------- Don't be upset. Your job is 50% done. 13.Type "vi /etc/shadow" 14.Then follw steps from 7 to 11. I think your success rate'll be 100%. If not then wait for your brother. 'Cause I wont tell you 'bout the other ways. But if you see the "vi" is not working then tell me, I'll tell you another way. **************************************************************************** ********************** Happy Hacking ;-) Sibayan ----------------------------------------------------------------------- LIH is all for free speech.

I have tried RP3 (under GNOME), kppp3,and usenet also. I have a VSNL account. I have specified the primary and secondary DNS also (202.54.1.18 & 202.54.1.30). I have specified the DNS name as bgl.vsnl. After dialing, the connection gets established, but when I click on the Netscape navigator button I get the following message: Warning: Host unreachable Perhaps there is a problem with your name server? If your site must use a non-root name server, your will need to set $SOCK_NS environment variable to point at appropriate name server. It may(or may not) be necessary to set this variable or the SOCKS host preference, to the IP address of the host in question rather than it's name. Consult your system administrator. What should be the DNS name? Is it required to create and set the SOCK_NS environment var.? Sometimes the DNS is mentioned as optional only. I tried pinging to the DNS IP addresses specified above and it pings the system correctly. I just cannot understand what could be wrong.

In plain ol' real mode, its the standard 0xA000. U can linearly access the pixels depending on the bpp u are in. Like for 8-bit modes, each pixel is represented by a single byte, and whatever color u write to that byte is gonna be the color on screen. In 16 bit modes, the color info for each pixel is stored as 5:6:5 or some card dependant config. where the nos. represent the no. of bits allocated for R:G:B (red green blue). So there is NO REAL RAM involved. FB means just that. The video RAM of the Card is mapped on to a protected memory address, to which u can refer as an array if u want, and write pixels directly on to the screen, after setting the required mode. the fb system also allows for mode setting, as different cards have different mode setting interfaces. If u've done some device driver programming in Linux, u'll understand what mapping device memory means. In case u have the kernel source lying around, i think a bried explanation is present in the Documentation/IO-mapping.txt or something which sounds like that... :) > > communication with the gfx card.

The only optimisation possible here, is to draw the current screen in a seperate mem buffer and memcpy(using the system's ver. or u're own fancy ASM routine, taking advantage of MMX, or SIMD, if available) the screen on to the fb. This allows us to take advantage of the burst transfer rates allowed by the system. VRAM is generally considered slower than normal RAM, thats why we first write to a buffer and block transfer the whole thing. But i dunno if this is implemented. I know XFree86 implements it in the normal servers. They must be doing it in the fb code too, i guess, or following the normal route, which is writing a pixel at a time DIRECTLY to VRAM , becomes tad slow. :) > Infinite thanks Nikhil, aw gee!

It often gives warning that some program (gpm,panel etc) is not responding/broken/very slow. It asks me whether to remove the program or cancel. Even if I choose remove program, the system is slow and the same warning reappears. Sometimes, it is not able to display the panel also. The following is a brief description of my system:- Pentium 166-MMX with 16MB RAM Redhat Linux 6.1 -- 1000 MB / partition and 32MB swap partition Cirrus Logic Display and LG Monitor (configured for 800 * 600 only).

It looks like u've got some experience with Beowulf clusters. We at ILUG-HYD are planning to build one ASAP, preferrably at IIIT-HYD, with the guidance of Prof. Sangal, and Mr. Prasad. I've gone thru the docs some time ago. But i didn't find any places of how EXACTLY to write an APP, which uses MPI. can u give me some pointer in that direction? And this question was put at Bang!inux also, but is the load balancing done automatically if the resources/config aren't the same on every system in the cluster. Like can i put in some 486s and some K6-IIs, and maybe some others like some PIIIs or something like that, and still will the load of the application be distributed evenly? Is there any program which emulates a SMP environment, when a cluster is being used? I know the memory sharing is not possible when the systems are seperated, but is there any way that multi-threaded progs, will run UNMODIFIED on clusters, making adequate use of all the systems. And what level of Ethernet is reuquired? 10mbps is fine, or do we have to look for higher speeds. And is network boot along with NFS ESSENTIAL for a cluster? or can i just take individual systems, and put them all into some cluster mode after booting? I know they're a lot of questions. I've been saving them for a loooooong time, since i dont have anybody to ask here. Sorry for that... Nikhil.

A number of people have been wanting to install this upgrade, myself included. The new version contains updated drivers for many video cards, first time drivers for some of the latest video cards, and the added feature that it only requires one X server to be installed. No more wading through trying to decide which X server is right for you, just install 4.0 and configure it properly, and the stock X server (XFree86) will work beautifully. Also, from my experience, once you have XFree86 4.0 installed on your system, you will notice a slight decrease in server startup time." "I have included a copy of my XF86Config file with this NHF.

To allow users to mount/umount do the following: 1) Modify the /etc/permissions.local file and add the following lines to it. /bin/mount root.root 4755 /bin/umount root.root 4755 2) Modify /etc/rc.config and make sure that PERMISSION_SECURITY includes "local". For example mine says: PERMISSION_SECURITY="secure local" 3) Run SuSEconfig to set them permanently.

I agree i was running it on a P100/8MB a while ago (I was working on GNOME dev then, so had no choice :( ) , but i wouldn't call it even slow. Its REALLY slow. I suggest u stick to KDE. GNOME and ENlightenment are HUGE memory hoggers. Especially Enlightenment, which uses Imlib, for all kinds of image manipulation, which take a lot of time to execute. GNOME also uses imlib as a binding to the gdk (gdk-imlib), so even thats a bad idea. For daily needs, I'd stick with KDE, unless u're like me and can't let go of the GNU! ;-) Nikhil.

Yes, this kind of work has been done in research - emulating SMP on a cluster. The technique is called Distributed Shared Memory (DSM). You play tricks with page table entries and fault handlers communicate over the network. http://www.cs.umd.edu/~keleher/bib/dsmbiblio/dsmbiblio.html In this method, you essentially code to the pthread API and everything happens automagically. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Mar 23 16:25:52 2000 Received: from sharmas.dhs.org (c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com [24.0.69.165]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0225A38090 for ; Thu, 23 Mar 2000 16:25:43 -0800 (PST) Received: (from adsharma@localhost) by sharmas.dhs.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) id QAA05902 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Thu, 23 Mar 2000 16:25:47 -0800 Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2000 16:25:47 -0800 From: Arun Sharma To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Startup Logo Message-ID: <20000323162546.A5883@sharmas.dhs.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.6i In-Reply-To: <20000323170338.25123.qmail@web1305.mail.yahoo.com>; from Nick Hill on Thu, Mar 23, 2000 at 09:03:38AM -0800 X-Archive-Number: 200003/1279 On Thu, Mar 23, 2000 at 09:03:38AM -0800, Nick Hill wrote: > Hi.

Unwanted personal opinion: I think the LILO booting model is broken.

Yes, this kind of work has been done in research - emulating SMP on a cluster. The technique is called Distributed Shared Memory (DSM). You play tricks with page table entries and fault handlers communicate over the network. http://www.cs.umd.edu/~keleher/bib/dsmbiblio/dsmbiblio.html In this method, you essentially code to the pthread API and everything happens automagically. -Arun ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The LIH mailing list archives are available at: http://lists.linux-india.org/cgi-bin/wilma/linux-india-help From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Mar 23 20:22:14 2000 Received: from punegate.mahindrabt.com (unknown [203.197.95.162]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E0E893820F for ; Thu, 23 Mar 2000 20:21:58 -0800 (PST) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by punegate.mahindrabt.com (8.8.7/8.8.6) id JAA01722 for ; Fri, 24 Mar 2000 09:54:57 +0530 Received: from intranet.pune.mahindrabt.com(202.41.13.243) via SMTP by punegate.mahindrabt.com, id smtpda01687; Fri Mar 24 04:24:49 2000 Received: from mahindrabt.com ([10.4.5.42]) by intranet.pune.mahindrabt.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA17571 for ; Fri, 24 Mar 2000 09:58:06 +0530 Message-ID: <38DAEDCB.F2F46C74@mahindrabt.com> Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2000 09:53:39 +0530 From: Rajeev Reply-To: rajeevj@mahindrabt.com Organization: MBT X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (Win95; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: one code- n machines Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200003/1294 hi nikhil as far as MPI is concerned , i know that people at CDAC are using it, last summer few chaps from our institute were doing CFD simulations using MPI in cdac, i will ask them for more info, but it will take a few days, or i would contact somebody in cdac , it's just 3 kms from my flat. just wait for a few days.but by the way , if u get any info pertaining to this topic , pls keep me aware also. regards Nick Hill wrote: > Hi.

I went thru the lilo.conf, there is a field which says message. Its normally used for displaying a message before the lilo prompt, but when i examined the message file the field was pointing to, it was some binary stuff. Maybe this executes some escape sequence which lilo allows to get control of the system's Video RAM. Its basically gotta do the following things: 1. Set the Video Mode 2. send the bitmap to the video ram. 3. Cycle the colors by manipulating the palette, the same way that doze system files do. This will require a MAJOR hack, but i dunno how the Corel guys are doing it. This comes up BEFORE the kernel. It gives me a nice menu on the gfx, by which i can select which part. ta boot from. Heck, its better than OS/2 bootmanager, which needs a whole manager. I know there're lot of space constraints in the boot sector - 512 bytes isn't much, but it could be doing the same thing like what its doing with the kernel... save the physical address of the file on the harddrive, and load it into RAM and transfer control. SO, i wanna know what exactly is the format so that i can put up Alan Cox on bootup! ;-) > > Unwanted personal opinion: > > I think the LILO booting model is broken.

I shud've got it at Bang!inux, but the gt guyz have age old stuff. I've seen gr8 reviews of FBSD, so i'm kinda waiting to try it out... I'm already mad with Linux, it hangs my Banshee, by overheating it, while doze runs it fine, even tho the card is overheated... :=\ But i think some ppl. are taking Linus' statement of "World Domination" too serious.

First of all u're system should allow for booting from the network. I've seen some AMI BIOSes allow this, but never in Award BIOSes. U're server has to be running a BOOTP server, which will give the thin client an IP, by determining its HW address. The kernel is transfered to the thin client thru tftp. The kernel boots up and the root is loaded via NFS. Its better documented in NFS-HOWTO and NFS-ROOT howtos... I think PCQ had an article on it sometime back, but i haven't been getting my PCQ past 6 monthz, so i couldn't read it. damn them! :=\ Nikhil.

I dont think the kernel will do something like that. If u want, u can just boot from the Corel Linux CD, and u'll get the gfx too.

Well, I would suggest that you better stop continuing to this monitor in this mode. By your description, it looks like you/X are driving the monitor beyond its specs or very close to rated specs. And prolonged use in this manner may end up burning your monitor. Try using a lower resolution/refresh rate. Did you give the refresh rate ranges (hsync/vsync) during configuring X correctly?? I may be able to help if you provide me your /etc/X11/XF86Config. Regards, Kedar.

Linux has a decent and fairly robust implementation of posix threads, implemented partly in the kernel as the "clone" system call, and a userland library libpthread that deals with the nitty-grity of clone and lower level details and provides you with a posix-thread interface. For more info do man pthread-create and friends. If you are using any distro based on glibc2.1 (RH6.x, Suse 6.2+) then you already have libpthread installed. For earlier glibc's you may have to go and get libpthread and compile/install it. Other than that just pick up any standard book on posix-threads and it should apply to gnu/linux implementation of threads.

Basically if page A is shared between machines M1 and M2, that page table entry for A is made read only on both machines. If one of them writes to it, a page fault is generated. The fault handler transfers the modified page to the other machine. So you end up getting a lot more page faults than you intended. You can run it on any kind of a network (the OS doesn't care - it just sees it as a device) - but your performance will vary. I don't have any numbers - check out the bibliography I mailed earlier. There are variations of the above theme to make it more efficient. Wisconsin guys deviced a method where coherency is maintained at a cache line level using hardware mechanisms, but replication happens at a page level using software mechanisms.

Here's roughly what I had to do: XFree86 -configure cp /root/XF*.new /etc/X11 vi /etc/X11/XF*config - Edit the monitor section: add modes, hsync, vsync - Edit the screen section: change the depth, resolutions etc xf86config was no good - it said my card was unsupported and dropped me into 640x480 with the vga driver instead of the rendition(my chipset) driver. End result: My card (Diamond stealth S 220) is still unaccelerated, though there is some alpha code to do acceleration. No other visible change. Configuration was flaky as described above. For the non-adventurous to somewhat adventurous people, wait till your favorite distribution puts it on a CD. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Mar 23 23:23:57 2000 Received: from sharmas.dhs.org (c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com [24.0.69.165]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BE1D03806C for ; Thu, 23 Mar 2000 23:23:50 -0800 (PST) Received: (from adsharma@localhost) by sharmas.dhs.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) id XAA06855 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Thu, 23 Mar 2000 23:23:54 -0800 Date: Thu, 23 Mar 2000 23:23:54 -0800 From: Arun Sharma To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Linux Threads Message-ID: <20000323232354.B6803@sharmas.dhs.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.6i In-Reply-To: <38DAF97A.1A39C32D@wipro.com>; from Rakesh Agarwal on Fri, Mar 24, 2000 at 10:43:30AM +0530 X-Archive-Number: 200003/1311 On Fri, Mar 24, 2000 at 10:43:30AM +0530, Rakesh Agarwal wrote: > Hi, > > Can any compare Linux threads with the Unix threads, how robust Linux > threads are You'll have to tell us more about "UNIX threads" :-) Robust is more of a marketing term. Doesn't mean much in technical circles. Start here: http://pauillac.inria.fr/~xleroy/linuxthreads/faq.html The primary difference between Linuxthreads and the thread implementations on other Unixes is that Linux chooses to do 1:1 mapping between user and kernel threads (like NT).

Why is it so ? Doesn't the DNS need > named.ca when online ? I think it's the other way round. The PCQ March 99 scripts use the named.conf file with the entry for zone "." (i.e the hints.. named.ca entry) only when you're online. (DNS restarted through the ip-up script). When offline, the DNS is made to operate without the zone "." entry. This is actually a clever hack to ensure a fast response from your DNS when you're offline. Several applications try to resolve external domain names (e.g. sendmail when it is sending out mail), and if the zone "." entry is present, Bind tries to contact the root servers to resolve these (which obviously doesn't work when you're offline) resluting in long delays. If this entry is not present, BIND immediately reports that the domain cannot be resolved. The downside of this is that the "caching" part of your caching nameserver doesn't really work across dialup sessions.

It has only my static IP address (192.168.0.1). The ISP nameservers are not needed - named uses the root servers listed in the named.ca file to resolve any domain. For example, let us assume you are looking up www.yahoo.com. named contacts A.root-servers.net (whose IP address is listed in the named.ca file) and asks about name servers for .com domain. Then it queries that server for yahoo.com's nameservers, and then the yahoo.com nameserver for www.yahoo.com. ISP nameservers are needed if you are not running DNS on your machine. Also, you can instruct named on your machine to use your ISP nameservers instead of going via the root servers to resolve any domain. This has the advantage that cache'd data from your ISP is utilised (lookups become faster).

When you fork whole of the process data area is duplicated (even if its marked copy or write, it eventually would have to be duplicated to some extent, in case of a threaded app), that doesn't happen with threads. Just having a single kernel extry point (clone) doesn't mean the behavior is same. AFAIK, when you just clone (create a thread), a new entry is made in the process table, such that the lower 16 bits of the pid are same as parent, and the upper 16 bits represent the thread number. And both "processes" share the same code/data areas. In essence threads are still lighter on the system, although the time taken for pthread_create/clone is almost identical on linux. BTW does anyone know what happens to stack? IIRC, linux uses the bottom of data area as stack? Does it get duplicated, and properly mapped so that each thread sees its own stack?? Regards, Kedar.

IIRC, HP-UX thread model is basically identical to posix-threads, which is the same that libpthread provides on gnu/linux. So I don't think you would have any major issues with the porting thing.

Automatic detection of monitor using the DDC (still buggy) 6. More chipsets supported, especially u're Sis 6215, and 6326. 7. faster server startup 8. automatic MTRR setting, for faster performance on PII and greater. This is my own list. I think u'll find a more exhaustive list in the release notes. It may not be much for most of the admins out there, but for layman home users, and some graphics guys, its a boon! And as for xf86config, there seems to be a wrong Cards file shipped with the tar balls. My card(Voodoo Banshee) was listed in it in 3.9.16 thru 3.9.18, but isn't on the list now. So, u cannot blame the XFree86 project for this. some chap must have commited a mistake. I personally feel that XFree86 4.0 make a full circle as compared to windoze. Now, i feel Linux can have a chance on the desktop. the DRI architecture, provides for a generic architecture, for which drivers can be written. Precision Insight is doing a gr8 job in this area. I think XFree86 is the most under appreciated Open Source Project! They're marvelous guys, believe me! a bugs here and there should be expected sometimes...

The stack normally starts just below the kernel (0xbfffffff) and grows towards the heap. http://pauillac.inria.fr/~xleroy/linuxthreads/README - The stacks for the threads are allocated high in the memory space, below the stack of the initial process, and spaced 2M apart. Stacks are allocated with the "grow on demand" flag, so they don't use much virtual space initially (4k, currently), but can grow up to 2M if needed. Reserving such a large address space for each thread means that, on a 32-bit architecture, no more than about 1000 threads can coexist (assuming a 2Gb address space for user processes), but this is reasonable, since each thread uses up one entry in the kernel's process table, which is usually limited to 512 processes. Another potential problem of the "grow on demand" scheme is that nothing prevents the user from mmap'ing something in the 2M address window reserved for a thread stack, possibly causing later extensions of that stack to fail. Mapping at fixed addresses should be avoided when using this library.' -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Mar 24 08:20:27 2000 Received: from sharmas.dhs.org (c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com [24.0.69.165]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 3BA2038050 for ; Fri, 24 Mar 2000 08:20:21 -0800 (PST) Received: (from adsharma@localhost) by sharmas.dhs.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) id IAA07926 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Fri, 24 Mar 2000 08:20:24 -0800 Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2000 08:20:24 -0800 From: Arun Sharma To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: TL/I Message-ID: <20000324082024.B7773@sharmas.dhs.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.6i In-Reply-To: ; from Somok Ghosh on Fri, Mar 24, 2000 at 10:18:04AM +0530 X-Archive-Number: 200003/1342 On Fri, Mar 24, 2000 at 10:18:04AM +0530, Somok Ghosh wrote: > hi everybody, > this is a serious problem. we are unable to find the TLI > library and support files in linux.we are having redhat 5.2,6.0,6.1. can > anybody please help us.

Because I don't care about any of the above features - exept for may be 7. Then again, I start it and keep it up all the time - so it doesn't really matter. I care about the scroll performance in the browser and smooth moving of windows around. Neither of those changed for my video card in 4.0.

The API is the same. But the models are likely to be different. Don't know what HP-UX does - but if it does anything similar to Solaris (as is likely) - the main areas of trouble are: if your app expects to do getpid from different threads and expects the same pid, it doesn't work on Linux. Basically other OSes treat the process as a container for many threads. In Linux that relationship is more of peer-to-peer. And performance related assumptions - creating a large number of threads is not ok on Linux. Switching between threads requires an entry and exit from the kernel. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Mar 24 08:46:05 2000 Received: from bgl2.vsnl.net.in (bgl2.vsnl.net.in [202.54.12.46]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0CF61380D2 for ; Fri, 24 Mar 2000 03:45:08 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost.localdomain (IDENT:root@PPP-185-132.bng.vsnl.net.in [203.197.185.132]) by bgl2.vsnl.net.in (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id RAA04135 for ; Fri, 24 Mar 2000 17:02:36 +0530 (IST) Received: (from mrinal@localhost) by localhost.localdomain (8.9.3/8.9.3) id RAA04974 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Fri, 24 Mar 2000 17:28:48 +0530 Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2000 17:28:48 +0530 From: Mrinal Kalakrishnan To: The Linux India Help Mailing List Subject: Re: Programmers?

Sorry if my goal happens to be to promote Linux, but i kinda like the idea of Linux taking over the desktop market. No commercial interest in here (heck i'm 17). I think games form an important part in this market. Its really sad that u're card doesn't get an acceleration benefit, but the DRI allows for further progress in this field. But various chipsets do have increased performance. I've myself checked this out on a Cirrus Logic, Banshee, SiS, Matrox, Permedia2 and an S3. I think others will too show some increased performance. And i actually have noticed an increase in quality on my Banshee. i know this sounds ridiculous, but its true. I myself couldn't believe it. Either enlightenment is using some new features with the new X server, or its something else, because, i had the same screen running on one tty on XF 3.3.5, and another tty on XF 4.0, and things on XF4 looked better, with much more clarity. I dont have to believe me on that. I think X in its own native self goes a long way from preventing Linux to be branded as a STRICT server OS. I think this release has a lot to do with pushing X into various other avenues. > For many people, the decision would depend on the > video card you're using. > So make sure that you've read the release notes > before you proceed. > Makes sense.

The recommendee becomes disillusioned because they are first unable to configure it and even when they do they get poor resolution etc. The recommendee would probably be twice as shy to try of Linux on their desktop again.

Its still not perfect. But it is a step in the right direction.

Atleast i found a LOT of newbies, who were craving for this release, as it allowed the simple thing of doing OpenGL in a window. Sometimes the minutest of features looks like a boon to all. Maybe i'm getting carried away with my "Linux Rulez" attitude... so i think i should just lay off... Nikhil. IGNULUG-HYD. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I am asking this for a friend on our LUG. He's using Corel Linux, which is based on Debian. there's been some mix up by him or Corel, and the gcc/egcs isn't just there. does it come with Corel at all? according to me i've heard of a rpm2deb converter. does THAT come with Corel? so that we can do the same thing as we do in Slackware. I'm personally on Slackware. I've never been on Debian(damn those GT guys who didnt have 2.2), so i need to know what does Corel come with. We did a test install of Corel, but i deleted it as soon as i saw it didn't have GNOME. can any of u offer me some help on this one, pleez? Nikhil.

They have solved some pretty knotty problems on the list. However, it would be difficult, if not impossible for them to explain the basics of linux in each post. The purpose of this list is to help each other out. But people are unwilling to help those who don't take some effort to solve their own problems and expect answers on a silver platter. I suggest: * get yourself a good reference book. * read the online documentation. (usually in /usr/doc/HOWTO) A lot of your problems will be solved that way. If after that you are still stuck... _then_ post a query. Remember, all the gurus were once novices. If you take a bit of effort you'll be "sending fundas" like the rest of 'em in no time! cheerio, Biju __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

The kernel (2.0.3x) on the Slink CD wouldn't work with the new system. Recently for a friend, I had to create a Linux on floppy system. I thought of taking the short cut here and thought of basing it on the Debian rescue disk. I had Debian 2.0 CDs at home. So got its rescue disk and found it fitted his job requirement. Now the only problem was the old kernel and some scsi cards. *** Solution *** On looking at the Debian Rescue disk I found that it uses the Sys Linux (don't remember names) (linux on Floppy) package. This provides a very easy method for updating the Kernel image and Root Ramdisk image. It uses FAT filesystem on the floppy and these 2 images are files on this FAT fs. So if one is stuck with the Current stable Debain Distros and a new system. And don't want to try or doesn't have hands on the Potato (unofficial ) images. Then this is the step to follow. Create a floppy using the rescue.bin file on your CD. Then Compile your own 2.2 kernel keeping in mind the drivers required for your system. Copy it into the Rescue floppy as a file named LINUX (overwriting the original Linux kernel image on the floppy in the process). Once you are thro here you should be able boot from this floppy on your new system without any problem. *** Caution *** Due to many changes between the 2.0.x and 2.2.x kernel series some packages in your Debian system may not work properly with the 2.2.x kernels. An ideal starting point in indentifying these packages is, as usual, to look at the Changes file in your Linux kernel source package (it should be under the Documentation directory). *** Note *** So for those who want to play it safe may be its better to look at the latest stable Debian 2.1 release (i.e the 2.1rX series). --------- Keep :-) HanishKVC http://HanishKVC.tripod.com/ From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Mar 24 22:42:41 2000 Received: from giasbg01.vsnl.net.in (giasbg01.vsnl.net.in [202.54.12.17]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4670D3804E for ; Fri, 24 Mar 2000 22:42:30 -0800 (PST) Received: from linux.sankyasys (IDENT:root@PPP-177-110.bng.vsnl.net.in [203.197.177.110]) by giasbg01.vsnl.net.in (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id MAA24471 for ; Sat, 25 Mar 2000 12:14:49 +0500 (GMT+0500) Received: (from kala@localhost) by linux.sankyasys (8.9.3/8.8.7) id MAA01307 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Sat, 25 Mar 2000 12:09:13 +0530 Date: Sat, 25 Mar 2000 12:09:13 +0530 From: Babu Kalakrishnan To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: DNS for Dial-up Message-ID: <20000325120913.A1028@linux.sankyasys> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre3us In-Reply-To: <38DBB038.4BC95D56@satyam.net.in> X-Operating-System: Linux - Red Hat 6.1 (PCQ) X-Kernel: Kernel 2.2.12-20 on an i686 Organization: Sankya Systems & Objects (P) Ltd., Bangalore, India X-Archive-Number: 200003/1376 On Fri, Mar 24, 2000 at 06:13:12PM +0000, Shanker typed: > Babu Kalakrishnan wrote: > > > > Shanu said DNS in RHL 6.0 is broken.

The BIND you are referring to is BIND 8.2.2-p3. Documented bugs (lots of them) exist so that the BIND authors suggest that you upgrade to 8.2.2-p5 or higher.

I am a slow writer. :-) And also am poorly organised in doing certain things. Also I am posting this to Linux-India-Help so that the others out there can also provide more insight into it. As far as clustering in Linux is concerned a) For Load sharing and Failsafe operations of Web Services or FTP or so a.1) http://www.LinuxVirtualServer.org/ -> The LVS project is a good starting point to look at a.2) TurboLinux Cluster Distribution also provides solution for this a.3) Redhat comes with whats called Piranaha or so which is basically a GUI frontend to LVS ++ b) For Distributed processing for Number crunching or for utilizing the power of the m/cs on a network. b.1) PVM and MPI are one way of achieving this. Someone correct me If I am wrong as I haven't extensively looked into beowulf clusters. Even beowulf clusters use a system based around PVM and MPI and some fast M/c to M/c network traffic logic and so. b.2) I had gone thro Mosix sometime back it seemed like a good way of achieving Distributed computing by dynamic movement of processes across the systems in a network b.3) If I am not wrong (I haven't tried it yet) JAVA RMI allows movement of objects across systems in a network. this could be a good way of writing a system based on java which basically has some Daemon sitting on the machines on a network and accepting jobs written in java as required and running them on those m/cs. ++ b.4) One could write a similar system as I told for Java in C or Pascal or any other language. The part that could take some time is making it work across Different OSs and Architecture.

I have managed to get power management working perfectly on my laptop, so now it can stay up as long as I don't need to use the fake O/S on hda1 for some fake work (don't ask :-) Current record: 37 days without a reboot! Also be sure you check out every piece of the laptop - sound card, video card, PCMCIA cards, etc before buying one. Check out the linux laptop pages (search on Yahoo for "linux laptop" will get you there) and other resources for compatibility before buying, although this is getting to be less and less of a problem these days, thankfully. Video is the least of your worries - unless you intend to play fast animations etc., the VESA frame buffer trick will get it going on any recent (less than 2 years old) laptop or desktop.

Is Nik on this list ? Maybe he or anyone can help me. Thanks. BTW, I saw the following in /var/log/messages after I gave /etc/rc.d/init.d/squid start (or is it due to starting more than one instance of squid ? I see it doesn't stop me from doing so).

Apache speaks http, jakarta speaks Ajpv12 (apache java protocol version 1.2). But the internal architecture of Jakarta is well suited for writing your own request adapter, which will read your custom protocol. Jakarta has adapters for http and ajpv12 right now. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sat Mar 25 10:40:26 2000 Received: from eth.net (unknown [202.9.145.10]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B50C53804E for ; Sat, 25 Mar 2000 10:38:59 -0800 (PST) Received: from frodo.kcircle.com ([202.9.151.167]) by eth.net with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.5.1877.357.35); Sun, 26 Mar 2000 00:08:07 +0530 Received: (from r.suresh@localhost) by frodo.kcircle.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id AAA00816; Sun, 26 Mar 2000 00:08:18 +0530 X-Authentication-Warning: frodo.kcircle.com: r.suresh set sender to r.suresh@mailandnews.com using -f Date: Sun, 26 Mar 2000 00:08:18 +0530 From: Suresh Ramasubramanian To: sagar J naik Cc: LI Help Subject: Re: Thanks to Kedar,suresh and sanjeev Message-ID: <20000326000818.C743@kcircle.com> Mail-Followup-To: Suresh Ramasubramanian , sagar J naik , LI Help Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.1.9i In-Reply-To: ; from sagar_naik@mailcity.com on Sat, Mar 25, 2000 at 08:56:12PM +0530 Organization: CAUCE India X-Spammers: You spamma my mailbox I nukea da ass X-Linux: Linux 2.2.12-20 X-Archive-Number: 200003/1398 sagar J naik saw fit to inform LI that: >Using The Pcquest,sendmail Howto,fetchmail and procmail >I was able to replace the postmaster on NT Throw postmaster out into the nearest ditch - it is hopelessly broken.

Does u're PixelView have a BT848? if it does, then u're ready to rock. there're a truck load of players there, in fact, they come with the kernel too, in v4l. But if u're card is one of the unlucky ones (like mine), then there's a small hack to get it going. A guy started writing the driver back in 1998, and has abandoned all tries... i took up where he left off... and it comes a few times, but gives me a problem with some 2.3 kernels. But the 2.3pre series have pretty stable I2C support, and XF4 also has good support for it, and maybe i can pull it off... i can send u the driver right now, if u want to play around... i think once it is stable it can be integrated into the kernel v4l branch... atleast i hope... ;-) Nikhil.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200003/1415 Dear friends, I posted to this list whether any player is there to play VCD files (*.dat format). I got the reply too. I went to mpegtv.com and down loaded mtv . The problem is that it is requires registration and the audio goes off after 60 seconds. Then I tried the player mpegOrion also. It did not work at all. (Yes , I did ./configure, make, make install and tried to run the prog, but it would not). Is there any other good freeware player to play VCD files which can be installed and played without much hassle? Pl post it to the list.

Memory usage, stability and functionality are the dominating criteria. KDE/Qt and Gnome/Gtk are the front runners.

If it's a PCI card, the detection is easy - lspci or scanpci should show the card. With ISA cards, there is no easy way.

But when I tried this, it did not work. It is a documented problem and I really do not know if they have fixed it cause I had tried this a long time back. Another option is to use Native interfaces which works beautifully.

I would like to avoid that as much as possible. Of course I For that matter I don't think that even Windows would autodetect a non pnp card. It also would be doing what Arun asked you to do in case its not a pnp card i.e try all the available network card driver modules or else open the Box and look at the ethernet chip on the card. May be you can write a small perl script or so which basically tries to load the different modules in /lib/modules/xxx/net and checks its return status to see if it successfully loaded or not, to automate the process. I don't remember any scripting language properly now, I look at them only when I have some work which can be done easly using them, So here is the algo to achieve the automation which Windows may be providing *************** #!/usr/bin/algo :-) ChangeDir(/lib/modules/`uname -r`/net) if( $? != 0 ) abort; for (file IN currentdir) do { insmod file if SUCCESS then AddTo(PossibleDriverList); } Print(PossibleDriverList); *************** --------- Keep :-) HanishKVC http://HanishKVC.tripod.com/ From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Mar 27 01:30:10 2000 Received: from MailAndNews.com (MailAndNews.com [199.29.68.160]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7BBED38050 for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 01:30:01 -0800 (PST) Received: from morula [208.238.62.78] (r.suresh@mailandnews.com); Mon, 27 Mar 2000 04:29:54 -0500 X-WM-Posted-At: MailAndNews.com; Mon, 27 Mar 00 04:29:54 -0500 From: "Suresh Ramasubramanian" Organization: KCircle [ http://www.kcircle.com ] To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org (LI Help) Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2000 14:59:52 +0530 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: Re: Telnet Not working Reply-To: r.suresh@mailandnews.com Cc: Sathish Kamath Message-ID: <38DF7768.25760.3D7C329F@localhost> In-reply-to: <20000327071737.21298.qmail@nwcst282.netaddress.usa.net> X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v3.12c) X-Archive-Number: 200003/1457 On 27 Mar 2000, at 0:17, Sathish Kamath wrote: > Linux machine.

I got in touch with Atul and this is what he had to say on Bind - Eeep! I hope you haven't left people with the wrong impression! Bind in 6.1 is not broken. The way RH sets up your hosts file is broken (refer my FAQ), and it confuses my pcqupdt script. Note, however, that bind in RHL 6.0 is *insecure* and is a major security hole. It was because of holes like these that we never put out an RHL 6.0 CD - as far as I remember, RH released three new versions of bind before they got it right, and just after that released RHL 6.1. I recommend that anyone using bind should be running 8.2.2 or later (RHL 6.1 ships with 8.2.2). Note the difference between "broken" and "insecure" - "broken" implies that it doesn't work at all (bind with 6.0 does work), "insecure" means it works but leaves the front door open.

Others might find it, only of peripheral interest. Greetings, Libraries attached to academic institutions who have been using the CDS/ISIS software suite for textual searches on DOS and Windows (WINISIS) might be happy to know that a replacement is (or has been for some time) at hand: WWWISIS (http://www.bireme.br) runs on Linux and can (almost?) do everything that CDS/ISIS could do. Over the past week, we have developed all html screens and scripts in the ISIS formatting language to invert, index, search and update an ISO-2709 interchange format database. By the way, we by no means are the first to do it. The advantage (IMHO) of WWWISIS over CDS/ISIS or WINISIS is: 1) One can now offer library catalogue search and COPSAT abstract search services over a network. WWWISIS integrates beatufully with Apache+CGI. 2) The cruddy and severely unforgiving CDS/ISIS data-entry forms can be replaced by their friendlier HTML counterparts. 3) WWWISIS is free. Linux is Free. And we dont charge for help ;). Universities and Colleges with ISO-2709 (UNESCO-3.07) databases of their holdings and in particular, subscribers of the excellent COPSAT (an abstracting service offered by the NCSI) who were considering upward migration to costly library mangement software like Libsys might find this an exciting option. In case you or your institution uses CDS/ISIS or subscribes to COPSAT and would like to know more about this, do write to me and we would be happy to share our eperiences.

It's legal to export it now. But due to patents laws, you'll have to pay the respective patent holders to be legal.

I've worked in other environments (like mainframe) where the schedulers have lots of features. One of the features which I'm currently looking for is, after a file has been completely copied (or created) a process should start. The emphasis is on the word completely. For eg: If I have a file which is 100 MB, only after all 100 MB has been copied should a process be kicked off. Similarly next time the file is deleted and recreated this process will be kicked off. One way of doing this is to write a shell script which is executed in the minimum time interval allowed by cron, keep check for the files status. Compare it with the status in the last time-period and decide to kick of the process. Is there any other more ready made and elegant method like we have CA7 in mainframes.

Though the functionality that you're asking for might be of use in some special circumstances, it is not useful for general purpose use. The other rule of thumb is: whatever can be done at user level shall not be done in the kernel. In the above cases, the process that is creating or deleting the files should be responsible for notifying your cron job. Registering callbacks with the kernel and getting the kernel to call back will not be done in a general purpose kernel. Given how conservative Linus personally is - he refuses to put a debugger or debugging code (like asserts to check certain invariants), it is extremely unlikely that he'll do anything like what you're asking for. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Mar 27 20:34:37 2000 Received: from sharmas.dhs.org (c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com [24.0.69.165]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B253E3804E for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 20:34:30 -0800 (PST) Received: (from adsharma@localhost) by sharmas.dhs.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) id UAA17537 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 20:34:36 -0800 Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2000 20:34:36 -0800 From: Arun Sharma To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Telnet proxy Message-ID: <20000327203436.B17489@sharmas.dhs.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.6i In-Reply-To: <000201bf986a$9a4f3220$96b9c5cb@nagma.diffs-india.com>; from Differentiated Software Solutions Pvt.

Squid is not a telnet or a ftp proxy. You have to run something else (I don't know off hand - you'll have to do your own research). Typically, IP masquerading (or NAT as it is called outside Linux circles) does a much better job. There proxying gets done at the IP level, rather than the application level. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Mar 27 20:38:15 2000 Received: from bbs.myhome.com (unknown [202.54.109.66]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 931383807D for ; Mon, 27 Mar 2000 20:38:04 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost (tusar@localhost) by bbs.myhome.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id KAA01944 for ; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 10:08:16 +0530 Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 10:08:15 +0530 (IST) From: Tusar K Nayak To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Telnet proxy In-Reply-To: <20000327203436.B17489@sharmas.dhs.org> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-Archive-Number: 200003/1491 >>Squid is not a telnet or a ftp proxy. >> >> -Arun >> squid is used for ftp proxy .

For ISA cards, it still asks "Which driver should I try?" It does this by looking into /proc/bus/pci/devices where all PCI devices are registered by the kernel, and by comparing with an hardcoded database.

On RHL6.1, 'halt' asaks for user password but ctrl+alt+delete For disabling ctrl+alt+del, comment out the "^ca::ctrlaltdel" line in /etc/inittab. For disabling halt asking passwd to anyone logged in on console and shutting down the box, you have to play around with pam. Look into /etc/pam.d/*. Be *very* careful, playing with pam, you may end up screwing your box so badly that you may not be able to login. I haven't tested this, but looks like just opening /etc/pam.d/halt, and knocking out the pam_console.so line should do the trick, repeat the same for reboot. Regards, Kedar.

Squid is an http proxy, which can also send ftp requests as a client. On the server side, it understands /only/ http. So, it is impossible to use standard ftp clients (ncftp and such) with squid as proxy. You need ftp proxies for that (I think the ncftp suite has a program for that).

In such cases, you can boot as single and change the rooot password. To allow only root to start and shutdown the system, you need to restrict the access. Use linuxconf, and set the shutdown permission. In particular if you want to restrict the X-windows system only, then you need to edit the configuration files Hope it solves your problem __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Warn you, this is never a good idea to have this file. Let anyone be able to shutdown the system. But let the bootup be 100% secure.. at times, suppose power is going to be turned off at a short notice then it is better that the present person can perform a shutdown. Think about it.

May be your mp3 file is corrupted or may be some problem with x11 amp installation. Try to install the RPM again. You can also try out kmp3 or kmpg in KDE package.

You basically run it on the gateway machine, and tell it to listen on - say - port 2300 and then forward all connections on that port to port 23 of some specified host. Essentially the same as what "ssh -R ..." does or even netcat, I think. Let me know ifyou want the source. For general purpose "telnet to anywhere" Arun is right - no substitute for IP masq.

Perl is the established leader. Python is the upstart language. I'd describe the differences between Perl and Python as more cultural and of taste than technical. The main technical difference is that python began as an object oriented language and perl added it later on. python.org has a comparision between perl, python and tcl. Tom Christiansen of perl.com also has written a comparision. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Tue Mar 28 23:24:06 2000 Received: from web1301.mail.yahoo.com (web1301.mail.yahoo.com [128.11.23.151]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 8F52F3805A for ; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 23:23:57 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 19301 invoked by uid 60001); 29 Mar 2000 07:23:57 -0000 Message-ID: <20000329072357.19300.qmail@web1301.mail.yahoo.com> Received: from [202.63.101.71] by web1301.mail.yahoo.com; Tue, 28 Mar 2000 23:23:57 PST Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2000 23:23:57 -0800 (PST) From: Nick Hill Subject: Re: Re: FBDev X To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Archive-Number: 200003/1568 as i pointed out in my earlier mail, the card itself may support 24bit by some obscure instructions, thru the doze driver, but may not have defined a VESA compatible mode for it.

Like Mukund I too was confused whether to use Perl or Python and how much time to spend to learn it. I would like to add that in terms of semantics and structure Python is kinda more structured (logical?) whilst Perl is more "loose". Speedwise certain tasks are done better by Python. In terms of writing code, Python is easier because indentation takes care of many things. These are only personal opinions - please visit www.python.org and decide for yourself. Also Perl has been around longer so there are already many advantages in terms of code (Perl Modules).

I installed Win 98 first and next installed Linux as "Gnome workstation defauli" (Nov 99 PCQ CDROM). When machine starts the default OS selected is Linux. I want to make Win98 as the default O.S. I have done the following but it doen't help. Any ideas will be helpful. 1. I changed defalt O.S. with liloconf and made DOS as default but still the machine starts with Linux as default. 2. I checked the /etc/lilo.conf file in this file the default is set to DOS also but the ,achine starts with Linux as default when started. Any help witll be very helpful.

With due apologies to Perl fanatics, I'll say that Python is much neater, syntaxwise. In a way, closer to C...Since most people out here are somewhat familiar with C++ rather than Perl at teh outset, Python is easier to relate to...... Perl has its uses of course, it does incerdible things when u have a database to maintain......it just does away the need to write huge code in C.

Remember lilo.conf is a configuration file and making changes to it does not mean that changes will be brought into effect. For such a functionality, you will need a daemon.

It does not read the conf file every time. See, lilo modifies mbr. When it's reading mbr it does not know what operating system and file systems it's going to handle. If I set win95 and win98 dual boot using lilo, how do you expect lilo to read /etc/lilo.conf when it does not know where linux resides? That's not the point. You try running lilo after you change /etc/lilo.conf and see if it continues the same faulty functionality. If it does, then we need to pondr over the problem. Let us know....

I have initiated my daughter, who is 12 years old, to programming using python. She found it easy and did a few programs on her own, mostly math related. With this experience in hand I would not hesitate to say, Python can be the first language to be taught. Earlier I used to program in lisp, which is clearly slower than python. Python is possibly faster among the interpreters, but I have to check.

Since Perl has been around for a looong time, there are a multitude of readymade scripts available from CPAN and other places.....Also, for specific and repetative tasks involving running back and forth between database and requests, perl is simpler. In such cases, Python can be a pain, though modules are available. As somebody has already said, Tom Christiansen's comparision of Perl/Python is worth a look..... Anyway, Python as a language is far more "elegant" than PERL. ANd yes, it IS a case of personal preference.....u tend to do things with tools u are comfortable with :) **************************************** Sthitaprajna @mailandnews.com **************************************** From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Mar 29 08:06:26 2000 Received: from goa1.dot.net.in (goa1.dot.net.in [202.54.17.30]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0EFB338051 for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 08:06:15 -0800 (PST) Received: from rajesh.home.all ([202.54.17.156]) by goa1.dot.net.in (8.9.2/8.9.2) with ESMTP id VAA20271 for ; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 21:37:17 +0530 (GMT) Received: (from rajesh@localhost) by rajesh.home.all (8.9.3/8.9.3/SuSE Linux 8.9.3-0.1) id VAA00968 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Wed, 29 Mar 2000 21:09:52 +0530 X-Authentication-Warning: rajesh.home.all: rajesh set sender to rfowkar@goa1.dot.net.in using -f Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2000 21:09:52 +0530 From: Rajesh Fowkar To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: opera Message-ID: <20000329210952.A847@rajesh.home.all> Mail-Followup-To: Rajesh Fowkar , linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.1.9i In-Reply-To: <38E1C9EA.D47E699@mahindrabt.com>; from rohits@mahindrabt.com on Wed, Mar 29, 2000 at 02:46:26PM +0530 Organization: Rajesh Consultancy X-Spammers: You spamma my mailbox I nukea da ass X-Linux: Linux 2.2.13 X-Archive-Number: 200003/1602 Hi Rohit, Arena is a Web browser.

Hi Dr. Sekar, use the command *where startkde* (without the stars of course) to find out where the startkde script is located on your machine. Then put hash(#) before the following two lines in startkde script using vi / joe or any editor : #startifaudio kaudioserver #startifaudio kwmsound Now add the following just below these two lines : kaudioserver & kwmsound & Restart KDE.

Linux was developed on Minix by Linus. Linux had followed Minix, the idea of open source was also there in Minix but there are many differences: 1. Minix had a micro kernel design and Linux has a monolithic design 2. Minix was cross hardware design but Linux was specific to intel chips (only recently it has been modified for other chips as well) Minix had a better design, but the aim was for teaching. Whereas Linux was designed to be a main stream O/S monolithic design or otherwise. So the relation of Minix and Linux is more of a teacher and student (influence wise).

Jay Ensure u are running lpd ( run setup, system services) 1) run printtool from a terminal within X 2) choose add/local printer and if any ports are detected, add the approprite filter and u are done. 3) if no ports are detected as in my case, open the file /etc/conf.modules and add the following two lines to it. alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc options parport_pc io=0x378,0x278 irq=7,auto i guess u should probably reboot ur system and run printool again to detect ur ports. u can probably do the same from kernal configurator within control-panel..i am not too sure.

Or you can chroot the remote user (not recommended, > its a security hole). One can defeat this by ftp'ing a X11 binary into the machine and running it. A more effective way would be to block port 6000 which X11 protocol uses to communicate with the client. Note that blocking port 6000 on that box is not what is needed. You need to block all sockets whose destination is 6000. Then again, one can defeat this by running X on a different port. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Mar 30 09:14:56 2000 Received: from roltanet.com (prayag.roltanet.com [202.60.128.2]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5E98B38058; Thu, 30 Mar 2000 09:14:02 -0800 (PST) Received: from smtp.roltanet.com ([202.60.128.27]) by roltanet.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.5.1877.297.29); Thu, 30 Mar 2000 22:46:13 +0530 Received: from default (vishnu127.roltanet.com [202.60.147.127]) by smtp.roltanet.com with SMTP (MailShield v1.5); Thu, 30 Mar 2000 22:36:21 -0800 Message-ID: <002601bf9a6b$f27698a0$7f933cca@default> From: "ag" To: Cc: , , Subject: [COMMERCIAL] [URGENT]Reqd.

I dunno whether 1 and 2 are _wrong_, but I have the third entry, and it works for me. BTW I think the entry doesn't matter as such. Only thing is that your conf.modules and the entry in /dev should match with each other, and not conflict with any other entry in /dev. In my case I have the third entry, and my conf.modules entry is like this alias char-major-10-175 agpgart I suppose if you use the second entry, then the conf.modules too should change accordingly i.e. agpgart should change to gart. Finally I doubt whether the first entry, that 174 0, would work. Kedar.

I was advised to setup ip masquerading. We've gone through ip-chains HOWTO and we have some basic issues which is unclear. 1. What is IP Masquerading. How is this related to Transparent proxy ?? 2. What is the difference between transparent proxy and squid as a proxy. 3. Even after setting up IP Masquerading should we run squid ?? 4. We have windows clients using telnet to login to Linux. Now, we want to use the same telnet to login to servers in the US using Linux as a proxy. How do we do this. After we setup transparent proxy can I run telnet on Window PC and access any server on the net or should I logon to Linux machine only then can I telnet ?? Thanks for the help.

A well-written answer to all 3 questions above is part of the IP chains HOWTO: http://www.rustcorp.com/linux/ipchains/HOWTO-3.html (I know you said you read it, but you may want to re-read that section very carefully. It *really* does explain the differences very nicely, with 3 scenarios). Anyway, I'll try... In the following, "you" or "your computer" means a client machine that is behind the firewall/gateway. Scene 1 - The most restrictive: Squid proxy only. In this scenario, your web browser is told to use the gateway's squid port (usually 3128? I'm not sure) as a proxy. (It's in Netscape/Preferences/Advanced). When you do this, and ask for, say , yahoo.com, netscape does not directly try to contact yahoo. Instead, it contacts your proxy - which is squid on your gateway - and asks it to please go and get yahoo for it. Squid does that, and sends it back. This is the most restrictive because you really can't do anything except HTTP (and perhaps anon FTP). You cant do telnet, command-line FTP, ssh, or indeed anything else. Anything that Netscape can't do, you cant do. Scene 2 - much better: IP Masq In this scenario, your machine *thinks* it can talk to any machine on the internet. However, your machine has an IP address that is "private" (say, 192.168.x.x), which is not addressable from anywhere in the wide world outside. Your routing table says your default gateway is your firewall box. You dont set any proxies in Netscape. You ask netscape to get yahoo.com. (Or you yourself try to telnet to some server - say shell.yourisp.com. Or you try to FTP... whatever). Your machine looks at the destination and decides to send it to your default gateway. The gateway looks at the destination address and "masquerades" the packet. Why? If it sent the packet out as is, the return address (it's private, remember?) will make it essentially useless - the server on the other end will never know how to send the reply back. So your gateway (which does have a non-private IP address) changes the packet headers to make it look like it's coming from itself, and sends it to yahoo. It also makes a note of sme details about this connection, so when the reply comes back it know what to do with the reply. When that reply comes back, it changes the headers once again (to look like the destination was your box) and sends it to you. So to all intents and purposes you are "on the internet". For some tasks (like FTP) some extra modules may have to be "insmoded" on the gateway (like "insmod ip_masq_ftp"). Scene 3 - not much good - transparent proxies Transparent proxies are (IMHO) useless for your purposes. Let's say an ISP decides to put in a caching proxy (squid again!) on his gateway for efficiency. This will only work if all his customers are willing to set up this proxy in their netscape or whatever. That's a hassle; many of them might not (even though it's in their interest, actually) be bothered. A transparent proxy works by detecting packets coming in from the customers, bound for port 80 (HTTP) on some machine somewhere. It then transparently redirects it to a local port (say, 3128). What it has done is that it has screwed up the routing - you think your packet is going directly to yahoo.com, but it's not. Then squid takes over and the rest is as before. So transparently proxy is basically a way to "force" everyone to use a proxy whether they know it or not. But see below... > 4. We have windows clients using telnet to login to Linux. Now, we want to > use the same telnet to login to servers in the US using Linux as a proxy. > How do we do this. After we setup transparent proxy can I run telnet on > Window PC and access any server on the net or should I logon to Linux > machine only then can I telnet ?? You dont want transparent proxy for this - use IP Masq. Transparent proxies need special software listening on the gateway (like squid for HTTP) in order to work. Remember that in transparent proxy the packet is redirected to a LOCAL port. I am not aware of any squid-like proxies for telnet connections, so this won't work.

Let try to answer. 1. If you want to stop user from running any X component like xinit, by telnet logging, then remove the relevant binaries from the user path or change the permissions. 2. If you want stop remote user from connecting to x server, then close the port 6000 (I think xf86config has the option), and you can deny connection from xauth file also.

My problem is I using the /etc/procmailrc file the mails get distributed but the recipient recieves nearly 20-25 copies of the same mail. When I saw it carefully the size of the mails is not same ,it goes on incraesing . When checking it with the "pine " I see some recived token in the mail .From which I feel that the procmail is not able to send the proper reply after delivery to the "fetchmail" program or vise versa.

[1] The most common security hole in cc:mail (a favorite with script kiddies) is to send a mail to the (canonically correct) address postmaster@[ip.of.ccmail.box] => note the ip is enclosed by square brackets. This will put the cc:mail box into an infinite loop of bounces, crashing it. FWIW, this has appeared in Bugtraq, CERT, etc etc over four years ago, not some brand new exploit. So, I will regretfully be compelled to direct all flames re this to the recycle bin (yeah, my office forces me to use Outlook, why do you ask?) :( Suresh Ramasubramanian | sureshr@staff.juno.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Sumith Ail [SMTP:sumith@softhome.net] > Sent: Saturday, April 01, 2000 12:23 PM > To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org > Subject: [LIH] Email Server > > Hi Friends > > Is there any help available on setting up a local SMTP/POP3 Mail > server from scratch on the Internet or from U all using either sendmail > or qmail > > Can Linux mail server be configured as a Internet gateway to CCMAIL > >
