Yast deletes and repartitions all of them. **As a consequence my /boot went well over 1024 cylinder limit and i couldn't lilo to M$ **So i deleted the linux partitions , went for a minimal 2-minute 124 mb RHL 6.1 install from a very scratched CD and from cfdisk tried to manipulate the partitions. But the problem is that yast takes my hdd as having over 2000 cylinders but disk druid says i have only 1027 cylinders. Which is right? Oh by the way i've a 8.4 GB seagate hdd. ** Then i again started suse yast and it said i have non-contiguous harddisk space. If i give a 1028 mb partition it says it's too little for install. This happens in both the guided and the auto install. How do i continue...?

Thw second problem is I configure the KPPP, after trying 2-3 days for dial up it gives the message " KPPP is not compiled for kernel, re compiled it." and when I tried to remove it with rpm it shows KPPP is already install. But with querry option it gives message KPPP is not installed. So three time I removed the RedHat and again install to work with KPPP. Is there any other solution?

You might get it to work. else we are here. >From: "anil kumar" >Reply-To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org >To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org >Subject: [LIH] reg X windows >Date: Sat, 01 Apr 2000 02:32:15 PST > >hi, > > i open X window system with KDE desktop. the windows are too large for >the >screen. the resolution is 640X480. i need to increase the resolution to >800X600. can anyone suggest the best way to do it? > >anil. >______________________________________________________ >Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com > > >----------------------------------------------------------------------- >For more information on the LIH mailing list see: >http://lists.linux-india.org/lists/LIH ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sat Apr 1 09:33:54 2000 Received: from hotmail.com (law2-f41.hotmail.com [216.32.181.41]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 694CB380B8 for ; Sat, 1 Apr 2000 09:33:46 -0800 (PST) Received: (qmail 49578 invoked by uid 0); 1 Apr 2000 17:33:45 -0000 Message-ID: <20000401173345.49577.qmail@hotmail.com> Received: from 203.197.21.87 by www.hotmail.com with HTTP; Sat, 01 Apr 2000 09:33:45 PST X-Originating-IP: [203.197.21.87] From: "MAA Rizwan" To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Still problem with XServer Date: Sat, 01 Apr 2000 23:03:45 IST Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed X-Archive-Number: 200004/17 The XF86Config file is corrupt.

You need a small partition (big enough to hold kernels) - /boot on redhat, within the first 1024 sectors. Though you may be able to get the distros to share a /boot, it's risky. The other alternative is to have a /boot for each distro. > > Also how do I setup my primary drive to let me run two to three flavors of > Linux along with win9x,WinNT without having to buy System commander or > another boot manager? LILO can boot WinXX. So you need a big lilo.conf with entries for all of the distros + WinXX. Optionally, you can install LILO in the first sector of each of your distro partitions. Then your "master" LILO would just chain to the per distro LILO. Refer to LILO documentation for this. One of the limitations of Linux is that it forces you to use a partition per filesystem. Due to the DOS legacy, you can't have an infinite number of partitions. A better design is to create your own data structures inside the partition, the way BSDs do it. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sat Apr 1 09:52:31 2000 Received: from giasbmc.vsnl.net.in (giasbmc.vsnl.net.in [202.54.4.6]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 394C638057 for ; Sat, 1 Apr 2000 09:52:22 -0800 (PST) Received: from oldcomp ([203.197.59.156]) by giasbmc.vsnl.net.in (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id XAA16859 for ; Sat, 1 Apr 2000 23:21:45 -0500 (GMT) Message-ID: <014a01bf9b9f$568f4b00$0201a8c0@oldcomp> From: "G.Sagar" To: Subject: chat server.

My screen colors are not good. it has very poor resolution. Can I improve the same? I am using proview 14" colour monitor and intel 810 mother board with in built VGA card.

This is from u're webpage: ------------------------------------------------------- Every time a host tries to use the services provided by the Linux server like telnet or FTP, the Linux server tries to look up the name of the user who wants to use the service. This lookup is done by the identd protocol server running on the Linux machine. identd tries to resolve the hostname of the connecting user by looking it up first from the hosts table /etc/hosts and then the local DNS server as listed in /etc/resolv.conf. Once the hostname is resolved, the user identification is established and the requested service is provided. eg. telnet ------------------------------------------------------- AFAIK, the identd server doesn't do the lookups. The CLIENT has to be running a server on port 113 (IIRC). The identd server is for the client to identify itself to the server. The ftp or telnet client does checks the ident. The linux machine DOESN't have to be running a identd server. of course the telnet and ftp daemons, do a DNS lookup for themselves, to display the hostname+domain at the prompt.

Yes, but the problem here is that on a local network, where there are no entries for the hosts in either the hosts table or via a local DNS server, you face a delay of under a minute. > Please enlighten me on this if i am found wrong. thanx.

Problem Switch detucts cards as 100 MB half duplex when in autonegotiation mode but server is not vsisble on net/intranet and it also does not ping to any one except by itself. When i disable autonegotiation mode of switch and keep it as 10 MBPS it works and visible on intranet. I have tried forcing eth card in 100 MPBS half/full duplex mode using insmod eepro100 but it does not work. I have checked cables and replaced crads tooooo.

The SERVER does an ident lookup on the CLIENT. the SERVER doesn't need an identd daemon running. the CLIENT needs it. the daemon (ftp or telnet) does the lookup for its own info, which AFAIK can be logged and analysed later. If the ident lookup fails, which may happen if there isn't an ident server running on the CLIENT, the deamon goes on. The server searching for the ident, is the reason is that u're not running an ident server, and it cant find u're ident. If u've ever run an IRC server, and enabled ident auth, like the mit irc servers do, then u're IRC log files will have the IP of all the clients (all the IRC users) and their idents, along with hostname+domain names. the ident names are got from the CLIENT's identd daemon. the hostname etc. is got from RDNS lookups. I hope it is clear. bottomline: the wait before a ftp or telnet session is cuz the server is doing a ident lookup on the client if the client's ip is not listed in the server's hosts file. the wait can be prevented by adding the client's IP in the server's hosts file, or by running an identd on the client. would the oth' gurus on this list care to say something about this? --- Shanker wrote: > Nick Hill wrote: > > > AFAIK, the identd server doesn't do the lookups. > > identd uses the local resolver (/lib/libresolv.so?) > to do the lookup. > That was a slip. > > <---------updated---------> > Every time a host tries to use the services provided > by the Linux server like telnet or FTP, the Linux > server tries to look up the name of the user who > wants > to use the service.

However, a hosts file should anyway have the 192.168. ip block of your local lan, or if it is external, the lan should have NAT properly enabled and the server's public ip should (preferably) have valid rDNS. This helps a ~lot~ in minimizing lookup time.

Probably because it uses the sendmail on the local machine to send those emails.

Hello, I think there might be some problem. Are you really shure that the Hicom uses internal S0-busses ? Many HiCom Equipment uses Up0 busses for connecting their own hardware. There are adapters available as far as I know. And as an opton the system may be equipped with S0 busses without needing an adapter. But the RJ11 connector seems to announce such problems. I don't knw exactly if this problem occurs on an 100E, but it might be possible. > > Please reply back.

See here, LILO does not reside in your bootsector and it is not a file executed at the startup so just changing the file contents in lilo.conf are not gonna work. lilo.conf is the input file for /sbin/lilo so what you do is this.. make changes [configure input for LILO] run /sbin/lilo -v [this writes output which can be interpreted and used for bootup] And THEN reboot, if you need to.

However I am narrating steps. My conf.modules has "alias eth0 eepro1000". When I connected server to Switch i rebooted the machine so that both ports could negotiate the best possible speed. The link as indicated by indicators on switch was 100 MBPS but no ping to server from either end. Then used the blunt way.. of configuring the card i.e. "init 1", "rmmod eepro100" and as per Donalds guidence "insmode eepro100 options=32 or 48 ( 32 for 100 mbps half duples and 48 for full duplex). The card was initialised in exactly same mode in which I wanted. Started network by "init 3" but ping showed "destination host unrechable". Here I got one amazing result..... for 10 to 20 packests ping showed destination host unreachable but next few gave ping results but above 10-20 MS while at 10 MBPs i get ping at .3 MS. I also tried telnet bay switches and configuring the ports in all possible way i could but the card worked only at 10 MBPS on switch. I ahve same cards and some other i.e. 3-com and Compex 100 on win boxes they all are working good on same switch. I have alot many Compex 100 cards in spare and I can take out 3-com form other box but as my habbit is to fight i am still fighting with Intel card so that I can get some success. > On Sun, Apr 02, 2000 at 05:37:01PM +0530, Dr. S.K. singh wrote: > > > > When i disable autonegotiation mode of switch and keep it as 10 > > MBPS it works and visible on intranet.

Another thing that I learned from Linux. You need not reinstall the o/s if you are facing a problem. Install everything that you know that you want. That will be good.. really good. The nature of the O/S is so modular that most of the time, with a little tinkering, the things can be added on the fly and at worst, the system requires a reboot. I learned it the hard way after reinstalling Linux every time I lost sound. Yes, even THIS happens in the early days. > I am facing the problem of resolution.

I've been reading about many different variations of the Intel 82xxx chipsets showing up on the market. Perhaps the linux driver has problems talking to those cards ?

So calling Minix a cut down version of Linux is not fair, as the teacher (Minix here) should be given due respect, as Minix is the reason Linus could give us the most brialliant hack of all time - Linux. :) Nikhil. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

It had been working fine till sometime last week when sendmail started reporting host name lookup failures. The problem is as follows: My mail client sends mail to the localhost's sendmail for queueing. Once I'm connected, the /etc/ppp/ip-up script runs the mail queue by invoking "sendmail -q &" and waits for the mail queue to empty before disconnecting. But the mail queue is no longer being emptied. Instead all queued mails are "marked" with a "deferred: host name lookup failure: del1.mantraonline.com" message. However, if I point my mail client directly to del1.mantraonline.com, I am able to send the mail across. I am also able to fetch my mail using fetchmail without any problems. Furthermore, I am able to ping various Internet hosts while connected (eg., www.yahoo.com, www.linux.org). The problem seems to be with only my localhost's sendmail. The most puzzling part of the matter is that it's been working just fine for many months now! I haven't touched my config in ages (/etc/sendmail.cf, /etc/hosts, /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/ppp/*). I log in as root only to shutdown my system. Any help on this matter will be deeply appreciated. TIA. Regards, Manu.

I recommend that you put VSNL / Satyam's DNS hosts in your /etc/resolv.conf to avoid this problem. Also, there is an option in /etc/sendmail.mc which should be uncommented for boxes which don't have 24*7 DNS (like when you're connected using a dialup). If it is commented out, uncomment it and regenerate sendmail.cf (instructions in the sendmail.mc file) Lastly, set the DS flag in sendmail.cf to the ip number of the mantraonline smtp server :) Suresh Ramasubramanian | sureshr@staff.juno.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Manu Viswanathan [SMTP:mvnathan@iisxox.iis.stpn.soft.net] > Sent: Monday, April 03, 2000 4:08 PM > To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org > Subject: [LIH] sendmail host name lookup failure > > My mail client sends mail to the localhost's sendmail for queueing.

The > problem seems to be with only my localhost's sendmail. Are you "masqurading" in your sendmail? What does the DM macro in sendmail.cf say (look for ^DM in sendmail.cf)?? This relates to mails that you send locally, directly to sendmail's output queue (w/o going to smtp port on localhost). For mails that you send to localhost/smtp port, how is your mail client configured? In particular what is the "user domain" in pine (or whatever the corrosponding config in your mail client) set to?? And yes, can you nslookup del1.mantraonline.com while you are online? I guess the mantraonline guys must have changed some DNS related config on their side, which has resulted in broken sendmail on your side. That is not a surprise, as I have seen several isp's with broken dns setups, broken reverse lookups and so on. Regards, Kedar.

The Linux kernel design is definitely > MONOLITHIC Yeah. IIRC in microkernel architecture, the basic kernel is absolutely minimal, only scheduling process management and generic message passing is implemented in the microkernel. *Everything* else is implemented as userland programs (daemons) that communicate with eachother and with other userland programs through the generic message passing provided by the microkernel. This includes file systems, device drivers, page fault handlers, memory management etc. etc. Kedar.

Why do u think it is possible to run Linux without a keyboard just over a serial line? is that possible in ANY monolithic kernel around? I agree there was a HUGE flame war on comp.os.minix back in 1992, where linus said that micro kernel arch sucks, but that was in reference to Minix. I think Linux definately has a lil' bit of micro kernel arch, as many ppl. are finding it a nice os for embedded systems. Cobalt servers themselves run linux, without a keyboard and a monitor. I am not arguing that Linux is a micro kernel altogether, but what i'm trying to say is that it isn't totally a monolithic arch. either atleast the kernel as we know it now, either. I understand Linus built it as a monolithic kernel, cuz that's what made sense to him back then in 1992. But things have surely changed, and 2.4 is just around the corner. Just tell me how many people compile in EVERY driver linux provides, and use a monolithic kernel. I bet there's not even ONE person on the globe. Micro kernel is s'posed to pass messages to "user space" programs to do all the dirty work, but where does one draw a line, when most of the drivers t'day turn out to be user level hacks? heck, the whole DRI is a major "user space" hack, with VERY lil' interference from the kernel. i've spent the last 1 hour arguing on IRC in slashdot and MIT, in that sequence, and i hope to prove my point here also... I am willing to be refuted by all the gurus that inhabit this list. I agree this topic doesn't fit in this list and belongs to LIG, but i am not subscribed there, and i would appreciate it if the discussion could be done here, or pvtley. thanx. sorry if i sounded a bit raw out there, no offense.

From what I understand from your mail, IP-Masq & > proxy (squid) are mutually exclusive. I'm confused. They're not mutually exclusive - you can have both running. However, if (as you say above) all you need is HTTP, and proxy server (like squid) is installed, then you don't really need IP-Masq at all. In this case, use the first scenario I showed you (explicitly setting proxies in Netscape), and don't use IP Masq at all. In fact your "gateway" doesn't have to do any forwarding of packets in either direction, since this is happening in user-space (via squid). You would need IP-Masq only if you need stuff like telnet, ftp, etc., (that is, other than HTTP). Hope this helps.

They also had LKM. And I know of several boxes, embedded devices that use the plain old M$ dog as base system, w/o a display interface or keyboard interface, but with a dos extender (like phar-lap) to let them access more ram. > but that was in reference to Minix. I think Linux > definately has a lil' bit of micro kernel arch, as > many ppl. are finding it a nice os for embedded Suitability to embedded systems doesn't qualify a kernel to be a microkernel. That way one can claim that VxWorks and pSOS and uCOS and eCOS and all those nifty embedded OSes are microkernel arch. They are not. They are all classical monolithic kernels. > is a micro kernel altogether, but what i'm trying to > say is that it isn't totally a monolithic arch. either IMHO what distinguishes a microkernel architecture is when you have the ability to have *whole* filesystems, page-fault (or any other fault) handlers, and stuff like that to be runnable as a user space daemon, no more different than any other application prog, except for privileges/access permissions. > corner.

I forgot to mention this before, but once in a while you'll see a web server using some non-standard port (like 8100, 8080, or whatever). In those situations, your transparent proxy rules must be amended by the sysadmin to let those requests also be transparent proxied, (unless of course you're also IP Masqing, in which everything will work). Explicit proxy setup (where you actually tell Netscape to use this proxy server at this port on this machine) does not have this problem - even non-standard ports (like http://www.xyz.com:8100/) will go OK.

But AFAIK, the gzip > compression is better than the BSD comp... is there a > bzip2 compression on PPP? just wondering.... ;-) Many people still believe that gzip is a "better" compression algorithm than bzip2 - mainly because the small additional compression achieved by bzip2 is not worth the much higher compression time and CPU. For things like PPP, the extra compression would be useless, if the time it takes to compress is more than the time it takes to transmit the uncompressed data. comp.compession is a great newsgroup to read more about these issues. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Apr 3 10:31:34 2000 Received: from netscape.com (h-205-217-237-47.netscape.com [205.217.237.47]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4672338053 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 10:31:26 -0700 (PDT) Received: from judge.mcom.com (judge.mcom.com [205.217.237.53]) by netscape.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) with ESMTP id KAA14015 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 10:28:36 -0700 (PDT) Received: from netscape.com ([207.1.145.44]) by judge.mcom.com (Netscape Messaging Server 4.03) with ESMTP id FSGBC900.K71 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 10:31:21 -0700 Message-ID: <38E8D569.17C21D05@netscape.com> Date: Mon, 03 Apr 2000 10:31:21 -0700 From: Sudhakar Chandrasekharan Organization: I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, no one can prove a thing X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.13 i686) X-Accept-Language: en, fr MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Netscape Messenger Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200004/120 ADITYAN MURTHY proclaimed: > why does netscape messenger send all messages with the name "root" although i > changed it in preferences?

It is certain that Linux has graduated from the plain vanilla monolithic kernel arch but still the core kernel is monolithic (see Bach for the def). Regarding the adoptation of Linux in the embaded system, u are also little confused as even Allan Cox said (ref BangLinux netCast), the Linux kernel is not ready for the realtime embaded system as the threading and realtime interrupt handling is still poor.

It's true that Linux has some of the attributes of the micro-kernel design. But the main idea of the micro kernel architecture was to have functionality distributed into multiple address spaces and offer protection from one another. The multiple address space and protection boundaries ideas are key to the concept. A LKM runs in the same address space as the rest of the kernel and bugs in the module can crash the whole kernel. Microkernels were fashionable in academia for the last couple of decades. But Linus argued that it was intellectual dishonesty. His argument was that OSes are low level entities and that efficiency is more important than ease of debugging and a "clean" architecture. I tend to agree with Linus on this one. In fact, after getting used to Windows boxes with a responsive UI at work, I now believe that even windowing systems need to be monolithic, rather than being split into a X server, window manager and the application, all running on top of a kernel (you have 4 protected address spaces here instead of just one on 'doze) However, the trade-offs can be different in other cases. I was asking this question on a FreeBSD mailing list: FreeBSD implements NAT in a user level daemon, instead of a kernel module (ip_masq) as Linux does. Why so ? The answer I got was that the ease of debugging and maintenance and acceptable performance dictated that design. So the answer really is "it depends" (as always :-) -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Apr 3 21:26:20 2000 Received: from eth.net (unknown [202.9.145.10]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A7A7D38052 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 21:26:06 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost.localdomain ([202.9.150.37]) by eth.net with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.5.1877.357.35); Tue, 4 Apr 2000 09:51:34 +0530 Received: from cyberdude.com (IDENT:sanjeev@localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by localhost.localdomain (8.9.3/8.8.7) with ESMTP id XAA01083 for ; Mon, 3 Apr 2000 23:25:53 +0530 Message-ID: <38E8DB29.2D96825E@cyberdude.com> Date: Mon, 03 Apr 2000 23:25:53 +0530 From: Sanjeev M S 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: sound problem Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200004/138 anil kumar wrote: > i could not configure CMI8330 audio adapter with Red Hat Linux 6.0.

Did you tried to add a new path? Check for the line similar to fontpath unix:-1 in /etc/X11/XF86Config. You do not need this line if you are not accessing fonts over network. If not required, remove this line. See whether the error goes away. Chances are tha you tried to play with font path and !@##@!# up.

Is that the version of slackware or the version of your kernel? I am guessing it is your kernel version, which is pretty old. Linux kernel is now at 2.2.14 (at least).

My mail client is configured to use mantraonline.com as the user domain. And I am able to nslookup del1.mantraonline.com while online. I tried using alternate DNS servers instead of Mantra's DNS server, but to no avail. sendmail still complained with "Deferred: Name server: del1.mantraonline.com: host name lookup failure". As a last ditch effort I replaced the smart relay host del1.mantraonline.com with its IP address and the mail did leave my machine. It seems that somehow sendmail is ignoring my /etc/hosts file and is also unable to resolve the host name del1.mantraonline.com through any of the nameservers I pointed my machine to. But there's another catch now. Although sendmail did empty the mail queue with DS202.56.230.1, those mails are yet to reach their destinations! Any thoughts anyone? Regards, Manu.

Any > thoughts anyone? This doesn't work, I dunno why. I had this same problem with DS, I was hoping that anything you give after the DS would be looked up using gethostbyname, which returns the IP address as a 32 bit quantity, irrespective of whether the input string is a domain name or IP address. So you have to give the symbolic name to DS. Would any sendmail gurus care to throw more light on this DS thing? I haven't had time to get into sendmail code and figure out what's happening. Now given that you are able to lookup del1.mantraonline.com, I am nearly clueless as to what exactly is preventing sendmail from doing the same. Is there any chance that MX records may cause any trouble here?? Regards, Kedar.

It basically uses the settings in lilo.conf to write the OS loader code (the actual lilo) to the location (MBR/boot sect) you specifed . AFAIK, it is not mandatory that it the OS loader should be in the MBR. It can be in the boot sector of your / partition, or some other less obvious places. Check the lilo docs. IIRC, there is an excellent explaination of these concepts there.

I have done some research(not official or sumthin'...), on kernels from 0.98, 1.00,1.2, 1.3, 2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, and now 2.3.99-pre3. I have observed that the kernel is gradually, if not completely, shifting to more of a micro-kernel architecture. I am not arguing which is good. I leave that to all the kernel-gurus out there. What i am sure is that since the kernel CURRENTLY has some architectural features of a micro-kernel, and most of them of a macro one, i think it should be called a "hybrid" kernel. I remember having read this somewhere, a few years ago, i dont remember where tho.. :( Archan, when u say that i'm confused about the kernel being monolithic, and ALSO say that the Linux has graduated in these years, i think it is more confusing now... ;) I dont understand what do u mean by the "core" of the kernel? do u mean that there is something called "core" and the rest are simply drivers? that is the very concept of a micro-kernel, where msgs are passed around to different parts. It is a different issue that the drivers run in kernel space. but the way the modules are loaded on demand - this is another feature adopted from a micro-kernel. arch... AGAIN, let me stress that Linux is NOT a micro kernel, but its not completely a monolithic one either. I have seen most of Linus' usenet flames about this. His initial kernel WAS a COMPLETE monolithic kernel. But as u all agree that the kernel HAS undergone changed from the days of 0.01 to 2.4 now. And i dont think we should be referring to the architecture as a TRUE MONOLITHIC kernel. There're a LOT of components down there, which dont exactly match the arch. of a MONOLITHIC kernel. Archan, i am trying to be practical here. Alan Cox is GOD. I accept that. But lets get real. Linux IS being used in some devices. It's another matter that recently some company (Wyse, i think) ditched Linux for WinCE. That's based on preference and amount of work u're willing to put in. Lets look at the positive side - The Cobalt range of servers. They run a custom kernel of Linux 2.0 (not too sure of the ver.). Now, this server hasn't got a keyboard, nor a display. All its got is a network connection, to telnet in and modify settings, and an LCD to do some monitoring stuff... How do u think the Cobalt chaps found it easy to push Linux into their box? Lets see do them with doze! ;-) I personally think that it is this small amount of micro-kernel-ness in the Linux kernel, which makes this possible. AFAIK, there are some version's of Palm, which run on Linux. I agree this is a Linux Mania which is wide spread, but people are doing it cuz its possible. --- Arun Sharma wrote: > On Mon, Apr 03, 2000 at 06:09:10AM -0700, Nick Hill > wrote: > > It's true that Linux has some of the attributes of > the > micro-kernel design.

My only point is that Linux isn't completely a monolithic kernel anymore, and slowly, micro-kernel arch. features have been visible over the time... I am not saying that this trend will continue too. All i am saying is that Linux, in its CURRENT form, has a few features of a micro-kernel too, with MOST of the kernel being a monolithic kernel, as Linus started off with making Linux a monlithic one. I'd like to call it a "hybrid" kernel. I am NOT a CS student. I HAVE NOT studied OS concepts formally. I have just passed my high school. whatever i have said is only based on my own study and experience of the kernel. Please feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.

I remember having read this What features of a microkernel do you think are there in linux? LKM? I don't think it can be said that LKMs is a characteristic feature of microkernels. LKMs don't have their own address space, they don't have a active thread doing the work, they don't run in user mode. Linux can be called a "modular" kernel, not a microkernel. If you say ability to load LKMs is a microkernel speciality, then even solaris, hp-ux and possibly aix (although I am not sure with aix) may be claimed to have microkernel-like architectures. > stuff...

AFAIK, there are some version's > doze! ;-) I personally think that it is this small That way, it can be claimed even more ligitimately for most of the RTOSes. They do far more complex things that what cobalt has done. And none of these RTOSes - VxWorks, Nucleus, pSOS, uCOS, eCOS - are microkernel architectures. They can't afford to have the luxury of having a "clean" arch at the cost of efficiency/speed. Regards, Kedar.

I think the Linux does use some ideas from a micro-arch. Linus, back in 1992 has said in comp.os.minix, when Linux 0.10 was the latest one to be around, that all the user wants to see is how things are handled on the top layer. how it goes on inside deep is none of his concerns. speed and effeciency matter the most. I think Linux has borrowed the modular ideas from the micro-arch. Nikhil. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

XFree86 doesn't support i810 out of the box in 3.3.5. I remember the support is there only in 3.3.6 (which RH6.1 doesn't ship with). You can go to intel's site - support.intel.com, search for i810, and download a XFree86 compatible server from there or you can also do it from ftp://zeolite.sscu.iisc.ernet.in/pub/local/ Also don't forget to download and install the agpgart kernel module that allows you to use more than 1mb of video ram.

So when online, named has access to root servers and not when offline. Now the confusing part is when I see the /var/log/messages I see that when online named starts and says listening on [127.0.0.1] in lo listening on [202.52.252.128] in ppp0 where the lower IP is my dynamic IP address. Again as soon as I disconnect named restarts with new conf file and again it is still listening on lo and ppp0. Why is this ? ppp0 is deactivated when I disconnect but where is named getting my dynamic address from ? I think that's why I'm getting 'sysquery: findns error (NXDOMAIN) on ns.pucampus.edu?' error after I disconnect since there is no ppp0 active. How do I correct this ? Above all, where is named getting my dynamic IP from when I'm already offline and why is it still listening on ppp0? Is it normal ?

It basically means the communication between the mail client and the server is encrypted. You need a library like openssl to implement it. Netscape already has it built in. The mail server that you use needs to be capable of speaking SSL.

If you have linux installed on your machine, then there is a framebuffer howto in the HOWTO's directory which you might wanna have a look at. But I don't think we can totally do away with graphics card. I maybe wrong. Framebuffer X server lacks the acceleration ( except for the matroxfb ) and without acceleration , believe me X sucks big time. I have been with fbdev server since 4 months and It used tohog my machine like anything ( 35% or resources ) and now I am on X 4.0 which is smooth, fast and less CPU hogging. with fbdev, I used to have frequent hangups of X if I ran netscape.

IMHO, the kernel shud ship with only those fbs which ARE NEEDED. I think only shipping the vesafb makes a lot of sense. Al the other fbs can be got from the GGI guys, in case we wanna play around with it. AFAIK, there's no utility of an fb, except running vanilla un-accelerated X on unsupported cards. Its a real shame to see that fbs for WELL supported cards like the S3 Trio series, my banshee, Cirrus Logic, TGAs.., matrox..., 3Dlabs... so on. I think the integration of these fb modules into the kernel is real waste of space and bandwidth. If u want all the high-phunda res, better go for GGI, as it offers a better fb layer, accelerated, well tuned to specific chipsets, and offers MUCH MORE of stuff u can play around with. ever imagined running 8 X servers on a cube, with each face of a cube being a different X server, and being able to rotate it and select u're server?

Point two) also check that squid is running. Normally what happens is that if squid is not able to get the DNS ( norrmally given as the DNS of VSNL) it does not start. so if u have given the DNS of VSNL and started squid when u r nit connected it would not star. restart squid when u connect. or edit the script "/etc/rc.d/init.d/squid in that there is given u have to start squid with the -D option. Its simple try it. Honestly I have tried to make it as complicated as possible.

Minix is also part of the GNU project. Linux was made for the i386 environment cause MINIX works till 286 only. and so our father Linus sat down to write so that his childrens could follow him.

If one NT machine is talking TCP/IP and another is talking netbeui, then they still will not be able to communicate. > If Linux can also do it then please let me know. > I am waiting to "Bash#$" hime up. Even though linux networks run in TCP/IP, it can understand other networking protocols as well. TCP/IP is the leader among all these because it is simply put, the most reliable networking protocol, and the one with maximum functionality. IIRC, netbeui (I hope I got the spelling correct) can only broadcast, there is no connection-orientedness in it, and it floods LANs with unwanted packets (many people I know disable it from their Windows PCs and use TCP/IP all the time - even for Linuxless Windows networking LANs).

PGP/GPG are public key encryption systems. The underlying protocol does not matter for the transmission of the encrypted data. The encryption happens at the data / application level. In the case of SSL, the encryption happens at a lower (the transport ?) level. SSL was designed as a protocol that can be used to encrypt and securely transmit data from higher level applications (mail, browser, rsh etc.). Thaths -- Lisa: "Dad. You killed the zombie Flanders."

Also the speed is not so fast according to 256 as it should be. We follow some test and the results are these. We change the hd from one m/c to other (celeron 466) but here shows 256. We simply check our other linux system which also shows the 256 mb ram. What we conclude is we do not have supported bios / motherboard.

Please dont say that atleast in front of RMS! ;-) MINIX was an independant project which costed $ for private use, and given off free to universities, for educational purposes, to teach students OS concepts of the traditional UNIX system.

I have my own POP3 account at my ISP, but i like to put my email somewhere secure, like Yahoo. DDoS or whatever, i know i can trust Yahoo with my mail. I may decide to switch ISPs sometime, and i dont want to spend the next week telling everyone my new mail address. Now, coming to Linux, this is my position at home: No phone line. Have net account. makes sense? no, i know. :) Linux Box, no net account. makes sense? no. ;-) I get free internet access from a cybercafe accross the street, where i run doze systems masq thru a linux box. So, i really dont have a choice, but to use webmail thru yahoo. I cant use POP3 here, altho i have POP3 access, as i cant leave my mail floating around in the cyber cafe. As for u're mention of Debian. I've been trying to get this beast for a looong time. I started out with Slackware (back in '95), thought about Ygddrassil for a while, couldn't get it, continued with Slack 3.0, RH5.0, RH5.2, RH 6.1, courtesy PCQ. Now i'm back to Slackware 7.0, and I really love it. I couldn't get Debian 2.2 anywhere, and i'm more of a living-on -edge chap, who wont settle for some lame 2.1 or something like that. btw, Corel sux. I dont care if its Debian underneath, but it ain't got GNOME, so it ain't got me either! ;-) Nikhil. --- "Ravikant K.Rao" wrote: > >>>>> "Nick" == Nick Hill > writes: > > Nick> hehe. just remembered something... > stpb.soft.net has an open > Nick> relay... might as well use that too... > (atleast i use it, > Nick> as SOL (the ISP here) doesnt offer an SMTP > to relay messages > Nick> outside... ;-) > > Just wondering, if you ~are~ infact into linux, and > you do > seem to be, for I saw that a ~lot~ of the > messages/traffic on LIH is > thanks to you... how come you're not using your own > box? > If you were to check my headers, you'd notice that > I use Exim > 3.12 off my own debian box (rockford.myip.org) to > deliver my messages > for me. > IMHO, thats safer/easier than using other weird ass > smtp > servers. > BTW, another thing, why yahoo.com?

Not a good idea. You should let them. They need to read applications. There may be applications they don't know but might wish to find out. So the directories where teh commands are stored, must be both readable and executable. As for protection of users' directories is considered, yes, it might be a good idea, which already is the case with Linux. I think no one can by default go to someone else's directory.

Disable PnP BIOS, disable memory hole in BIOS settings and try passing mem=128m at the lilo boot prompt like this..

We cannot base our observations on third party distributors of these (magazines, book publishers etc.) who usually remove stuff to suit who they think is the target users. For example, I have never seen a mag/book CD with TeX in it, whereas Jaju, you should know, it is one of the most important software for an IITian. It is there on both RHL and SuSE CDs.

I have the answer for you question, and that is in Qt library (a free C++ library to develop GUI for Linux) you can find that game available and the algorithm is free to modify and distribute. If you have Red Hat Linux 6.1 installed with KDE you can find the game in the folder '/usr/share/doc/qt-devel-2.0.1/examples'; if you open the folder '/usr/share/doc/qt-devel-2.0.1/tutorial'; you can know more about it; though it doesn't contain much information about it. If you have SuSe Linux 6.3 installed with KDE, you can find the same folder in '/opt/kde/share/doc/qt-devel-2.0.1/tutorial'. One more thing in the 'examples' folder you will find many other folders which contains the examples and compiled binaries; suppose if it is '/usr/share/doc/qt-devel-2.0.1/examples/hello', go inside the folder run 'hello'; Likewise tictactoe named folder also exist. Just run the 'tictactoe' there. Please tell me about yourself,Which GUI toolkit do you use? GTK or Qt? I have written an UnJumbling algorithm in C lang (you find jumbled words in many news-papers); Could you help me write the Graphical frontend for that as I don't know Graphical Programming? I will dedicate the program to you...

My card hangs only when i switch to 3D mode. In 3D mode, there is a different clock speed, in fact its a different circuitry altogether. In 3D mode there is no pixel clock, as we're not sending pixels, to the card, but triangles, textures, and other kinds of geometry... There is a way to underclock the card by some environment vars., but the code for the driver doesn't allow that yet. Its bad to see that I can under/overclock my card in doze... :( NEwayz... i got a floor fan, and looks like i'm gonna keep that beside my box, all opened up and all... ;-) I'll keep u guys updated with the results (if u want.. ;-) Nikhil. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Use sudo if you need Administrator powers. man procmail man sendmail man qmail man exim man postfix man fetchmail Also cd to /usr/share/doc/HOWTO/en-html/mini and read the various HOWTO's that are there.

The person posting the query wanted some program which is something like WINGATE GATEKEEPER .. and me being a Linux-only freak obviously wanted to know what is that he wanted .. not knowing what the sidey Wingate does so that I could help if I knew.

Why, I've been trying to configure that on our RH6.2 boxes! :) In any case .. since this is mentioned .. has anyone successfully config'ed and used Kerberos? thanx. jaju From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Apr 6 09:39:23 2000 Received: from try15.bheltry.co.in (unknown [202.54.63.66]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EC7923802E for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 03:20:55 -0700 (PDT) Received: from rptedp01.rpt.bheltry.co.in ([10.7.1.20]) by try15.bheltry.co.in (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id 268 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 15:47:29 +0530 Received: from rpt.behltry.co.in ([10.7.1.176]) by rptedp01.rpt.bheltry.co.in (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id 129 for ; Thu, 6 Apr 2000 16:03:06 +0530 Message-ID: <38EC7AB6.9BA831E5@rpt.behltry.co.in> Date: Thu, 06 Apr 2000 15:53:27 +0400 From: "Dr.S.Sekar" X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.51 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.2.5-15 i586) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org" Subject: Sharing file from a Windows PC Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200004/373 Dear Linux Users, I have the IP address of a networked pc working on Windows.

On the other hand, if it is only a one time requirement then u would better go for other options such as mail, ftp etc.. (as others have already told) If you would like to go for samba, then you do get many added advantages also. To start, first check if you have installed samba (inbuilt in Redhat 6.1). If not get it from http://www.samba.org/ Read the documentation there and also the doc pages that will be installed. Give special interest to man smb.conf. Configure your \etc\smb.conf as per your requirements and run the smbd and nmbd daemons and you are through with it.

When i try to mount the cdrom in linux, i get the message: Kernel does not recognize /dev/cdrom as a block device (maybe insmod driver!) when i did a ls -l /dev/cdrom i get lrwxrwxrwx. The CDROM is not shown as a block device (as fd0 is). The strange thing is I installed RH 6.1 using the same CD-ROM drive and even now it is working just fine under windows and also when i change the bootsequence to boot from the cd and put a bootable cd, the system boots from the cd. What could be wrong. Please help urgently. How do i change /dev/cdrom to a block device. Is it require to delete /dev/cdrom and create new entry (how to create a block device file) Please help __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Then, if I make hda2 active I'll get lilo while booting and I will be able to go to win98 (in hda1) from lilo prompt if I want. ******************************* Yes my dear friend, This is exactly what I've done on my system, cause' another program sits on the MBR to make my sick little grandpa of a BIOS get to know I have a HDD larger than 1GB. Having a setup like this also prevents possible problems with LILO that U may face when U have a dual boot system with 'DOZE and (naturally) U need to reinstall it (which U've to anyway what with so many hundreds of programs out there - all of which write liberally to the registry (yes, there are ways out of these, but none that are 100% effective AFAIK)). In this case the MBR (and u'r LILO) will be overwritten and U have to use a bootdisk to restore it... Another interesting possibility that arises here is that of having 2 boot loaders (don't see any advantages though, except for the fact that the nice little third party boot loader can be used for loading the os's while LILO can be used for passing boot parameters to the Linux kernel... ), one in the MBR and one in the boot sector of u'r partition. I have tried this with LILO in the boot sector and a third party bootloader in the MBR. Worked pretty well - wonder if it's possible to have LILO both in the boot sector and in the MBR!!! Also this is a feature that is unique to LILO. I have looked all over the 'net trying to find a bootloader that resides in the boot sector (of say the 'DOZE partition) - 'vent found any yet. Any pointers there??? This is to use the third party boot loader for booting as LILO is totally text based whearas the others present a *NICE* menu to U from which U can choose by simply typing the number on the list!!! Hope it was of some use ... Bye ... Narain.

SO U have to use the command mount /mnt/cdrom Then it loads the cd drive in that directory. So all U need to do is go to the directory /mnt/cdrom to access the cdrom drive. to unmount the drive use the command umount /mnt/cdrom now if U want to change the cdrom directory to /cdrom or some thing else all u need to do is edit the file /etc/fstab and find the line pointing to /mnt/cdrom and change it to /cdrom. Now u have to create a directory name /cdrom U can do this using the command mkdir /cdrom. Note: U can edit the file only by logging as root!!!. Any other query please feel free to contact me.

I tried the April CHIP's SuSE v6.3 and the experience *SUCKED* First of all, go down to using xf86config only if you *HAVE* to. Try out XF86Setup, it gives you an arguably "better" interface. Of course, With SuSE, use: [SaX]: SuSE Advanced XF86-Configurator. A configuration utility for XFree86 that comes in the SuSE Linux Distribution. See http://www.suse.de/en/ for more details. G'luck with SuSE'ing ;) Ravi. -- ============================================================================== Ravikant K.Rao | http://www.symonds.net/~ravi/ Kernel: 2.3.45 | O/S: Debian GNU/Linux 2.3(Woody == Unstable) Primary Email : <> Permanent Email: <> pub 1024D/C2FC752D 2000-01-14 Ravikant K.Rao (Ravi) Key fingerprint = 4CA9 A353 C71F 1832 9AC7 0C71 D90F 6BFB C2FC 752D sub 1024g/1A2C5226 2000-01-14 ============================================================================== From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Apr 7 22:58:06 2000 Received: from rockford.myip.org (unknown [202.9.147.160]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BD53238074 for ; Fri, 7 Apr 2000 22:56:19 -0700 (PDT) Received: from ravi by rockford.myip.org with local (Exim 3.12 #1 (Debian)) id 12doDP-0000Fu-00; Sat, 08 Apr 2000 11:25:27 +0530 From: "Ravikant K.Rao" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Date: Sat, 8 Apr 2000 11:25:26 +0530 (IST) To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org, ravi@rockford.myip.org Subject: Re: Ethernet In-Reply-To: <01bfa118$21bbb520$3696c5cb@serv.iisim.ac.in> X-Mailer: VM 6.43 under 20.4 "Emerald" XEmacs Lucid Message-ID: <14574.50698.915238.604393@rockford.myip.org> X-Archive-Number: 200004/448 >>>>> "Charles" == Charles writes: Charles> I solved the problem by using linuxconf. start linuxconf Charles> (if you have x windows running ) and in the basic Charles> configuration, specify your card name, and the irq Charles> no. and click on the "activate the change" button. it Charles> works perfectly. Yeah.Do check out using "modprobe" right from the command line.. because thats basically what linuxconf does for you. For that matter, Fetchmailconf asks you half a million questions and makes your .fetchmailrc for you, but if you'd been just careful enough to "zless /usr/share/doc/fetchmail/sample.conf.gz" , you would realise that writing up your own .fetchmailrc takes you *MUCH* less time than "downloading fetchmailconf.deb + dpkg -i'ing it + firing up fetchmailconf (which needs X) + figuring out how fetchmailconf itself works + answering questions" ....IMHO, getting used to X and X tools and then depending on them for your survival, like not being able to fetch your email given a 486 running slackware, with no X ... is no measure of your linuxing skills/abilities.. Now, with your current status, just playing around with RedHat, you'll do fine using linuxconf and sndconfig and XConfigurator and suchlike RedHat-specific tools ... but someday, when you decide to so much as "try" out Debian or other non-RedHat distributions, you'd wish you were never born, trust me... Basically what happens is you begin to depend *way* too much on RedHat tools.. and then its like RedHat Inc. if following the MS Philosophy ,.. in making you get hooked to the thing first... and now you're in trouble if you dont have those specific tools... However, if you were to familiarise yourself with using "modprobe" , "XF86Setup" , insmod, lsmod, depmod, rmmod, lspci, etc. etc. and if you were given a pre-installed slackware/debian box and asked to get eth0 up .. well, you would do it in under 5 minutes..but if you tried using tools like linuxconf... well.. you dont have a linuxconf on non-RedHat boxen. This is all purely my own opinion, and unasked for too.I might have also touched on some rather controversial topics as to whether RedHat is really helping the linux community or not.. (indirectly?) ... but all this un-asked for sermonising/preaching was because, *I* got use to linuxconf too much and the day I tried out debian, I thought it sucked... but only *NOW* do I realise that I actually "Learnt" a lot of things, using debian.My point is, even a windows user, given a redhat box and given the linuxconf interface, be able to configure eth0 etc. etc. .. Its just how *YOU* look at it... *I* think Linux itself is a major learning journey and an enjoyable one at that...the fun is in battling it out with a bunch of man pages and HOWTO's and then the joy of being able to ping another box on your network is *MUCH* more fun than using linuxconf to do it for you. Also, I imagine the tone of this email makes it necessary to be on LIG and not LIH ... but I figured there were many many LIH subscribers ... oh well.. If you wanna continue this thread, please shift to LIG or Write me on my personal email and *NOT* LIH, 'cause you'd be getting in the way of others'... Just FYI: here's what by-and-large, the #debian community thinks of linuxconf.. [apt] rumour has it, linuxconf is an app to hide the harsh reality of linux from you. Once again, you may be the kind that has a job and does cool things at work and wouldn't really have the "time" to do command line things... but I *still* maintain that you should atleast give command-line-maintenance a shot. Have a nice day.

That might be the case when you need to run one apache server as some other more priviledged user who has access to database. If the owner of the server-process has access to the database too, then there is no need for passwords. OTOH, if there is only one process, either all users get access to the database, or the person needing database access will have to store the password in clear text in some file in which case the database becomes vulnerable and all (malicious) users can still have access. -- jaju From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sat Apr 8 07:12:37 2000 Received: from giasbg01.vsnl.net.in (giasbg01.vsnl.net.in [202.54.12.17]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 672D638059 for ; Sat, 8 Apr 2000 07:12:26 -0700 (PDT) Received: from bnvr (PPP-180-132.bng.vsnl.net.in [203.197.180.132]) by giasbg01.vsnl.net.in (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id TAA18501 for ; Sat, 8 Apr 2000 19:44:57 +0500 (GMT+0500) From: "B.N.V.

And after two days of fruitless wrangling with the hardware, I tried the obvious (duh!) - with Linux on both ends. And it worked on the first try! I get a bandwith of 1.2 Mbps (2 Mbps is the advertized max). For more info on the hardware checkout: http://www.webgear.com/ It's back ordered on most e-tailer websites. Costs about $150 in the US. Win98 recognizes the card, but doesn't talk to the network. If I try to change the IRQ (to the one that works on Linux), it hangs win98. Win NT gives the usual BSOD. FreeBSD has a driver that works on 3.4, but 4.0 support is not there yet. Great, affordable wireless networking solution I must say. Watch out for driver problems if you're using it with windows. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sat Apr 8 16:17:09 2000 Received: from sharmas.dhs.org (c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com [24.0.69.165]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 965E938094 for ; Sat, 8 Apr 2000 16:17:02 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from adsharma@localhost) by sharmas.dhs.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) id QAA04032 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Sat, 8 Apr 2000 16:16:45 -0700 Date: Sat, 8 Apr 2000 16:16:45 -0700 From: Arun Sharma To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: help!

Under Linux, each serial ports has two device names, the primary or callin device and the alternate or callout one. Each kind of device is indicated by a different letter. For any letter X, the names of the devices are /dev/ttyX# and /dev/cux#, respectively; for historical reasons, /dev/ttyS# and /dev/ttyC# correspond to /dev/cua# and /dev/cub#. In the future, it should be expected that multiple letters will be used; all letters will be upper case for the "tty" device (e.g. /dev/ttyDP#) and lower case for the "cu" device (e.g. /dev/cudp#). In short, if you need to use just one device, use ttyS#. If you need to differentiate between callout and callin, use cua# and ttyS#. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sat Apr 8 16:33:40 2000 Received: from sharmas.dhs.org (c62443-a.frmt1.sfba.home.com [24.0.69.165]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0283A38053 for ; Sat, 8 Apr 2000 16:33:38 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from adsharma@localhost) by sharmas.dhs.org (8.9.3/8.9.3) id QAA04161 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Sat, 8 Apr 2000 16:33:21 -0700 Date: Sat, 8 Apr 2000 16:33:21 -0700 From: Arun Sharma To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Multiprocesor revision level.

I don't even understand what you are trying to say here. Apache runs as nobody:nobody by default, and that is enough for me. If it has to access a postgres database, all I will do is to edit /etc/group to put nobody in the postgres group, and make all relevant files group-writable. I will still ask for passwords, though. I will still have to add the user nobody to postgres. :-) > OTOH, if there is only one process, either all users get access to the > database, or the person needing database access will have to store > the password in clear text in some file in which case the database > becomes vulnerable and all (malicious) users can still have access. Even with apache, there is absolutely no need for cleartext passwords. Do you know how apache authenticates a password? It has a few (configurable) instances of a program (usually one called ncsa_auth, comes with apache distribution) running, which takes a string of the form username:passwd and prints either OK or ERR on stdout. You can always replace ncsa_auth with any program you like (even one that you intend to write) so long as the program follows the above rule. How this program verifies the password is another question. It might be /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, or even more complex stuff like MD5 or Kerberos. It can even print ERR for everything. :-) Binand PS: I have successfully configured and installed Cyrus imapd on a machine (just barebones, nothing spectacular). Would people like a writeup on the installation process? I noticed the documentation on Cyrus is very poor, and it is extremely complex to run (but a boon to service providers).

See, if I add the user nobody to the database, then ALL users will be able to have access to the database. Now, if I have two sets of people, one with database access and the other without, the ones who should not have access to the database can still have access by writing scripts/programs and run them through the web-server as user nobody. What do I do in this case? (The point here is, if nobody { the user } is allowed database access, then the script/program can have access to it without password. Even if there are passwords, they have to be hard-coded into the script/program/config-files. Here, I an NOT talking about the user-authentcation passwords but the database password) If the password is stored somewhere in A's account, I (B), can write a script, run it through a web-server and get the contents mailed/copied to some other place (assuming that B doesn't have permission to directly view the file, but "nobody" has ;-) > I will still have to add the user nobody to postgres. :-) True. but I was saying, maybe, another user "webdb" can be added, and the other server be run as that! > Even with apache, there is absolutely no need for cleartext passwords.

And web-based authentication (extra precaution) for those who should have access to the database through the web. regards, jaju From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sat Apr 8 23:33:26 2000 Received: from alice.bombay.retortsoft.com (unknown [203.197.48.2]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 4BE4B380A9 for ; Sat, 8 Apr 2000 23:33:21 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from binand@localhost) by alice.bombay.retortsoft.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id MAA27820 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Sun, 9 Apr 2000 12:07:10 +0530 Date: Sun, 9 Apr 2000 12:07:10 +0530 From: Binand Raj S To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Running two Apache servers Message-ID: <20000409120710.A27815@alice.bombay.retortsoft.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre3us In-Reply-To: X-Archive-Number: 200004/487 Taken offline.

Earlier it had RH Linux 6.1. I tried to load corel linux after removing RH. It started alright like " Starting Corel linux" " Loading corel Linux" " Auto Detecting Hardware" and after it said " Starting graphical install" the screen went black and afterwards I could not do anything. I have Trident 3D Image 975 AGP card with 4MB VRAM. Mine is Intel Celeron 266 Mhz system with 64 MB RAM With 3 GB Linux partition and Win98 resides in the other Partition. When I tried the same in another machine with Intel Pentium 233 Mhz with 16MB RAM and having Cirrus logic Graphics card with IMB VRAM the graphical install went on smoothly. Can you tell me how to work around this problem? I do not want to replace my graphics card now.

It could be used anywhere as long as you have the radio frequencies it uses (2.4 GHz) are free. The card is available at many e-tailers (search cnet for the list of vendors). I just realized yesterday that the card has pretty bad interactive performance characteristics. Basically a ping between the two ends takes 10ms. On a 10 Mbps lan, that's 0.6ms. So if you run netscape, which requires a lot of exchanges, the latency is quite noticable. However the throughput is still good. So running X on that link may not be very good, but xterms are still ok. -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sun Apr 9 15:23:46 2000 Received: from crcst351.netaddress.usa.net (crcst158.netaddress.usa.net [204.68.24.158]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with SMTP id DB19838189 for ; Sun, 9 Apr 2000 07:31:39 -0700 (PDT) Received: (qmail 16929 invoked from network); 9 Apr 2000 14:31:32 -0000 Received: from nwcst267.netaddress.usa.net (204.68.23.12) by outbound.netaddress.usa.net with SMTP; 9 Apr 2000 14:31:32 -0000 Received: (qmail 7078 invoked by uid 60001); 9 Apr 2000 14:31:32 -0000 Message-ID: <20000409143132.7077.qmail@nwcst267.netaddress.usa.net> Received: from 204.68.23.12 by nwcst267 for [203.197.133.31] via web-mailer(M3.4.0.33) on Sun Apr 9 14:31:32 GMT 2000 Date: 9 Apr 00 20:01:32 IST From: Adityan S.Murthy To: Linux India Subject: Riva TNT2, Xfree86 4, still no Quake3!!!!

Dunno why this is happening, but there is another queer change in the permissions..devfsd seems to make these of the form"lr-xr-xr-x", while the others are of the form "lrw-rw-rw-". Why these different types?? Though the kernel should not have any problems with this, I'm not sure...so is there any way to restore the permissions to *normal*...Pointers to patches will be appreciated BTW, I've gone through Gooch's FAQs without any mention of any such problems....that has set me thinking, were Ragu and I aberrations??

Why these different Even I face some peculiar problem (I don't know if it is the kernel, but started after I changed to 2.3.99-pre3). The permissions of /dev/audio, /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer used to suddenly (unexpectedly) change and then all my mp3-programs would crib about permissions and exit. Then, either I changed the permission again ... or then started running my audio-apps as root. any clues? thanx. jaju From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sun Apr 9 21:33:37 2000 Received: from gatekeeper.mahindrabt.com (unknown [202.54.20.162]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B2DCD3810C for ; Sun, 9 Apr 2000 21:29:08 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by gatekeeper.mahindrabt.com (8.9.3/8.8.6) with UUCP id HAA11036 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Mon, 10 Apr 2000 07:52:13 +0530 Received: from mahindrabt.com ([10.3.2.185]) by intranet.chand.mahindrabt.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id HAA02409 for ; Mon, 10 Apr 2000 07:55:47 +0530 Message-ID: <38F139F0.BEC27CA3@mahindrabt.com> Date: Mon, 10 Apr 2000 07:48:24 +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: un subscribe Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200004/515 DINESH JAIN wrote: > please remove my mail address from the list > thanks > dinesh jain Yo0u gotta do it yourself Jain saheb.

Regarding menu based Lilo... one option is to press 1, 2, 3 and get your OS 2nd option SELECT MENU by up arrow or mouse.. then it is better to wait for Archan & ... from Saugata C.

I had Redhat,Suse and Windoz on my pc. I tried YaST and i got everything and much more features than Linuxconf,like you can install/uninstall packages,etc(while uninstalling,i accidentaly removed some thing (Yast didn't give me a warning)which made me remove my suse.The problem was when i logged in as root and typed my passwd it said some lib.so.something was not found,so i removed my suse) .Suse has a lot more packages than redhat,but i didn't have a gnome window manager. I found the suse 6.3 kernel(2.2.13) to be much fast.Is this version newer than that of redhat 6.1 kernel(2.2.12-20)? bye vinu Ab On Sun, 9 Apr 2000 01:54:37 -0700 (PDT) Ritesh S wrote: > *This message was transferred with a trial version of > CommuniGate(tm) Pro* > Hi !! > I installed suse from this months chip.

By the way, there was a comment from someone on this list today about [actually against] the utilities like sndconfig etc from RedHat. I am not against RH or anything but I wish to quote that the approach to 'do it yourself at the lowest level' is the ideal way to go. Methinks.

There is a basis for comparison, I guess, and that is that XF86Setup looks good. Believe me, when I came from Xconfigurator to XF86Setup, it was like COOL MAN, where have I wasted my life before?? Then I came to my senses. XF86Setup [till 3.3.6] did not really allow us to optimally configure our setup. [Especially for choosing a monitor etc]. The option 'High Frequency SVGA' was not the best setting for my Samsung 55e. For that you have to run xvidtune and one dear fellow on the list already swars by his monitor being blown up due to using that.. I must admit that xvidtune is slightly cryptic for me, if your goal is to get the best performance out of your monitor. There are better and much simpler ways.. Like xf86setup. > is running there.. i bet the loading of linux 6.3 will be a ziff in > that machine.. There even I am surprised. Rajesh Fowkar, say something?

It seems that they've stopped relaying mails through their mail server. They mentioned that they needed to do this to prevent spam "and other things." Would anyone know whether they really have to stop mail relaying to prevent spam? Anyhow, why is it that I can still send mail by pointing my mail client directly at del1.mantraonline.com but not through sendmail? Would it work if sendmail were to masquerade entirely (i.e., masquerade envelope, plus whatever else)? Perhaps when the sendmail identifies itself to Mantra's SMTP server, it identifies itself as my localhost's hostname and maybe that's Mantra rejects it... (I really don't know:) Or is there an alternative (eg., qmail + maildir2smtp) to sendmail that will work around this problem? (Basically, I guess, I would need an SMTP server that would look to Mantra as if the mail is coming through the mail client...) TIA. Regards, Manu.

It is the Yopy by Samsung. (Actually, I read about before it was released, so I don't know whether they have actually released it yet). Goto http://www.samsung.co.kr and do a search for "Yopy" for more details. If I remember rightly, the Yopy is on the expensive side, priced at around $500-$600. A good resource for handhelds and palmtops is http://www.brighthand.com. Hope that helps, John Jacob. ______________________________________________ FREE Personalized Email at Mail.com Sign up at http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Apr 10 04:57:25 2000 Received: from cs2.hyd.office.juno.com (cs2.hyd.office.juno.com [208.238.62.3]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D4013380C3 for ; Mon, 10 Apr 2000 04:57:17 -0700 (PDT) Received: from hydmail1.hyd.office.juno.com (hydmail1.hyd.office.juno.com [208.238.62.45]) by cs2.hyd.office.juno.com (8.8.6.Beta0/8.8.7/juno-1.1) with ESMTP id RAAAA29958 for ; Mon, 10 Apr 2000 17:27:06 +0530 (IST) Received: by hydmail1.hyd.office.juno.com with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) id ; Mon, 10 Apr 2000 17:27:05 +0530 Message-ID: <140318358CECD3118AE700104B8837D74DEE9C@hydmail1.hyd.office.juno.com> From: "Ramasubramanian, Suresh" To: "'LIH'" Subject: RE: sendmail hostname lookup failure Date: Mon, 10 Apr 2000 17:27:04 +0530 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2650.21) Content-Type: text/plain X-Archive-Number: 200004/550 Any responsible ISP ~must~ prevent every tom, dick and harry from relaying thru his mailservers if he wants to prevent spam. See http://www.orbs.org/otherresources.html for more info. However, any sensible ISP must allow relaying from all those who are in its IP block. If you are dialed into a mantra account, you have an IP from Mantra's dialup IP pool, so Mantra must allow you to relay through its SMTP server. So, if you are on a standalone linux box try setting DM mantraonline.com in sendmail.cf. If you are on a network, make sure NAT / IPMASQ is enabled properly, so that the Mantraonline server doesn't see something like 10.0.0.xx If it was an anti-relaying problem, Mantra would have bounced your mail with a 550 we don't relay (or something similar). This is a totally different problem IMHO.

No. They are running netscape messaging server, btw. Yet, that won't change the basic SMTP protocol :) Post some contents of your /var/log/maillog > around this problem?

There is no need to boot from the Linux CD again to delete the partitions.

The specs u have given in Ur letter are not enough to diagonise the problem. If U can pls kindly specify the application which is creating such a problem we can help U better. Because some application like staroffice and corel wp8 have there own printer setup tools and u have to change the specs there in the application itself. But If U r using the Redhat distro then I believe U have used the PrintTool to configure the printer so shoot the application once again then remove all the printers available there.Now click on add and then u will find the menu where U have to select the printer. And the all U need to do is select the menu for test and so all the tests like ascii print test and postscript print test and so and if this is working fine means that your printer has been configured properly. Now back to Debian I believe that there should be a similar util to configure the printer so search the kde menues for printer setup utility. Else use the linuxconf like util for Debian. There, I am sure there will be a menu for the printer configuration.

But of course these ARE legacy devices. The project is on some OLD HP_UX machines. And we are trying to make this mahcine correspond with a Linux one.

Can you delete a Linux partition using a DOS fdisk command? Try it and then post. What happens is this... 1. You load fdisk and lookout for the partitions. 2. It should you partitions.. 3. But you can not delete the Linux partitions as it says partitions contain logical drives and it will not allow you to see those logical partitions since it does not know how to show those. With DOS fdisk, you are pretty much stuck, take my word for it. What you do is fire up ddruid or cfdisk from Linux itself. Trust me. Works wonderfully.

Do you see this messages at the startup - "UDMA capable but not enabled?" I would have done the following.. irrespective of the line above. 0. Check BIOS settings.. if the DMA 1 [to Ultra/66] is enabled. Note down the status. If it is ON then.. 1. If it is, check if the HDD is capable of that. May be your HDD number could help you find some details about your HDD from Quantum's website about what is the rated mode of operation of HDD. 2. Check if there is an option in your BIOS to the same sense, if it is enabled. A lower than rated mode usually works. The trouble starts when you are trying to run an HDD faster than you can.. or telling others to access it using a higher than rated mode. 3. Now boot O/S. Are you also running Windows on the same machine, without problems? 4. hdparm -tT /dev/hdX [X=your partition] and note the output. [root] 5. hdparm [root] and note the settings echoed. [root] Check if the UDMA modes are on? man hdparm. [values corresponding to -cN and -dM flag, N and M] 6. Assign lower values to this set and try to work on this setting. Also note down the output of hdparm -tT /dev/hdX once again. You will get either comparable or lower values.. if you are effectively stepping down the HDD from it's higher rate mode. All the best. Do report your results, if it solves your problem.

Nothing is really in-built in Linux that way. It is whether there or not in the stock installation. And you can always download an application of your own, compile the source from scratch, install on your machine and run it. Squid is one of the thousand applications which are available for use on Linux. Download the rpm/tar archieves for squid if locate squid does not give you an answer to your query. Read the manuals, info pages.. and then get back.

Anyone can masquerade as localhost or a machine on your LAN, and your server will merrily accept mail (or any other command) from him. In fact, there are dozens more security holes if your server can be fooled into thinking that a remote, unauthorized connection is actually a local host / connected to your LAN. Enable ipchains / ipfwadm rules to properly show your IP as the one which Mantra's DHCP allots you, then you WONT have any problem.

It does work provided U have an ATX cabinet and your Bios supports it. I am presently running on Award Bios V4.51PG (I dont know what this PG Mean) and have a Kobian ATX cabinet. Hey there is a feature in BIOS power management that is wake up on Alarm and I did enable it for the specified time so it wakes up at the specific time given to it. But there is a problem how do I set it to shutdown. This is where U r linux comes in as this is not possible from the bios side. Now U have to use the utility command called 'at' and configure it to shutdown the system using the command 'shutdown -h 0' at the specified time(Now ATX cabinet comes in handy it shuts down the system completely that is it switches off even the system power supply.

If you have a machine which is bootable from CD drive then it's pretty straightforward. One place to look for beginners (which I found useful) is the PCQuest india's site. They have a section on linux in the site which gets a beginner started. Now to the DB question. This is too open ended to answer. It depends on your requirement. There are 2 DB's which are native to Linux, MySQL and Postgres. We've been using postgres for quite sometime. It's a good DB provided you are not planning to have a 24 by 7 uptime. It can serve most of client server apps and lower end web applications. BTW, DB2 and Oracle have some free version or other going on Linux. Visit their sites to get more info, One more thing to note. If you want to do anything at all with Linux, be prepared to surf the net like mad. Ask forums like this questions shamelessly (like I do). That's the only way to get going.

That gives me something to think about. What SHOULD a boot floppy contain in it? When the machine goes down, in DOS, we know that having fdisk.exe, system [io.sys, msdos.sys and command.com], format.com can give you a formatted drive. Fresh and new. What about Linux? I guess we should have... fdisk [cfdisk or ddruid] lilo AND???

Why would you want to run this file? Nothing under the /etc directory is runnable. The /etc directory is where configuration information about the software installed on your machine is stored. The binaries that are runnable are stored under /usr/bin or /usr/X11R6/bin or /usr/local/bin. System level binaries are usually stored under /usr/sbin or /usr/local/sbin I recommend that you read a good primer to Unix to understand the directory structure better.

Having a Matrox G 400 however, you are in luck, because you can download the drivers for the card from the utah-glx site (utah-glx.sourceforge.net). Please note that it is *far* better to download the cvs version as opposed to the binary version available for download, because drivers for the mga tend to be in a continous state of development, and you are more likely to get better mileage from the latest drivers. Also, download the latest (3.2) version of the Mesa OpenGL graphics library (mesa3d.org), of which the beta has been recently released, or through cvs, which is the better method. The installation instructions are very plainly given in the glx distribution, and you should be able to get Q3 up and running. Also, try to get the agp module for your card and compile it into the kerne (if you are using 2.2.x versions - the 2.3.x versions of the kernel already have this module), for the added performance boost. yours, venu On Tue, 11 Apr 2000, suraj kumar wrote: > To, > linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org > I have AMD Athlon 600MHZ with Matrox G-400 and 128MB > RAM but still I am unable to play Quake-3 on Red Hat > Linux 6.1 (PCQ CD).

The trouble with i810 sound is that I have seen several i810 based mobos that have the built in sound circuitry (the one built into i810) disabled - e.g. dell boxes. So just having an i810 based box doesn't give any idea about the sound driver you need to get things working. However, the generic sound hardware built into i810 chipset itself is *good*, and works wonderfully with ALSA drivers. Kedar.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200004/682 but xfree86 4.0 is supposed to have mesa inbuilt ( 3.3 i thought ? ) they specifically state that you don't have to install mesa separately. Secondly there isn't a proper hardware renderer out yet ... does mesa really do any hardware rendering on tnt2 ? I know for sure that there is no agp/dma support for the tnt2. 3dfx has way better linux support any day , but then what's the fun . I read somewhere that the riva stuff is hw acceled only in 15 or 16 fps mode so i even tried that...didn't help.I'm sure my settings are screwed up , but my questions are what components do i need. glx is handled by xfree 4.0 i presume. i haven't checked but i suspect they also provide libgl.so do i need a different libgl.so ? By the way I was running quake at 15and 16 bpp at 320x200 ( which was the only mode hence no probs of virtual desktop size). even then I get 1fps. so YES i'm sure that its s/w rendering i sure i screwed up but i'm not sure how and i'm not sure what i should do to fix it. i don't want to uninstall xfree4.0 . but im not sure if i ought to replace xfree4.0 mesa with standard mesa Nick Hill wrote: > --- Robin Chatterjee wrote: > > Anybody got any suggestions ? > > cheerio > > Robin > > > > the 20 fps they get is by tweaking Mesa and also by > giving Q3A some cute tweaks... get the latest 3.2 dev > thru CVS... it worx like a charm on my 3dfx.

What is the From: address that the mail is going out with? This from address has to be resolvable for a relaying mailserver to accept a mail. You have to set the From: header to sparvi@bom3.vsnl.net.in. The easiest way is to set your login name as sparvi, and put the line set hostname "bom3.vsnl.net.in" in your .muttrc. Other mail readers have a similar functionality. There was a discussion on this topic in LI last year, IIRC.

Then install W95 and after that, boot ur m/c with that floppy and use "lilo -v" from the command prompt of the root login. If anything goes wrong, then copy the "loadlin" utility from the RH cdrom alng with the boot image to ur w95 partition and load linux using the loadlin utility. then use lilo in the same way to rewrite the MBR. If ur bootable Linux partion (/boot or /) is a primary partition, then edit the /etc/lilo.conf file to load lilo in the first sector of the primary Linux native partition and then use lilo to load it there. Then install w95 and after the complete installation, change the bootable flag to primary linux bootable partion using fdisk (w95 version).

AFAIK, if you are running a recent copy of gnu/linux distro, then it is unlikely that your sendmail is compromised causing this. As someone else here said, just make sure that the from: line in the bounced mail does indeed contain a FQDN (fully qualified domain name). If not the mail is going to bounce at your gateway.

TNT2 is supported by utah-glx. go get it from utah-glx.sourceforge.net. The stuff about no AGP/DMA and no DRI for TNT2 is true. But 12fps or Quake is better than some sfp (for seconds-per-frame) ... ;-) XF4.0 comes with its own mesa, but *only* supports DRI modules for h/w acceleration of OpenGL. currently DRMs (DRI modules) are available *only* for 3dfx cards and Matrox cards. Precision Insight is working on others. Support for 3dfx cards is good (altho mine *refuses* to work). For all u TNT2 guys out there, go get a copy of the source for utah-glx, and build u're self a libGL.so, and replace the /usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2, which comes with XF4. The Mesa libs are *not* shipped with earlier releases of XFree86. XF4 is the first release to integrate Mesa into it. Please note that Q3A comes default with 3dfx accelerated libGL.so. Either delete this or mv it somewhere else. Q3A tries to find the OpenGL libs (libGL.so) in the following order: 1.libMesaVoodooGL.so (this might have changed in the latest release) 2. libGL.so So please take care that the right libGL.so (the utah-glx libGL.so) is being loaded. check all the paths in u're ld.so.conf, if there are any redundant libGL.so and delete them, or mv them. Please also notice that u need not use Q3A to check if u're OpenGL H/W acceleration is working or not...u can try with Mesa demos, esp. those in the 3dfx directory, which *require* to get some fps (or its sfp all the way ;-). u can also set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to point to the right libGL.so. Please make sure u run ldconfig after putting the right files in, to update the cache. I hope this helps. This is only based on experience. I *dont* have a TNT2. Please get back to me, if u face any problems. I'll try my best to help out. btw, if u have the *original* of UT, get the latest OpenUT, from openut.sourceforge.net, which uses OpenGL on linux, to play it in Linux. IMNSHO, UT kix Q3A's A$$!

In addition to the other comments that you have seen in this thread so far: The answer is not simple. It all depends on what you mean by "casual or moderate user". The best thing to do is to install each major [1] distribution that you can lay your hands on on a test computer or a sperate partition. Ultimately, the distribution that provides the functionality that you are looking for is the best distribution for you. I don't think there is too much of a performance difference between the distributions (assuming they all have same versions of kernel etc.). The chief difference between distributions is in installation and maintenance. Installation: Some installations are easier than others. RH, for example, does a whole bunch of hardware probing. Debian's installation needs a bit of getting used to. Caldera's installation supposedly asks you only few questions and lets you play tetris while the installation happens. Since in most cases installation is a one time thing, I would not worry too much about it. It does not matter if the installation takes 1 hour or 3 hours. Maintenance: This is the key. The distribution's package management tool (something like rpm, GnoRPM, dselect, apt-get etc.) should make it easy for you to keep your system up to date. GnoRPM is easy to use. dselect (Debian) needs a bit of getting used to. apt-get (Debian) makes upgrading your entire system a breeze. Since the most you'd see of the distribution is through the maintenance interface, I'd say look carefully into what maintenance options each distribution offers you. Thaths Footnote: [1] Caldera, Debian, RedHat, Slackware and SuSE (in alphabetical order ;-) are the major distributions. There are umpteen minor distributions like Mandrake (RH compiled with Pentium optimizations) which are not worth the effort, IMO. -- Lisa: "Dad. You killed the zombie Flanders."

The first part is right, the second wrong. Make a Linux bootdisk (man mkbootdisk),then reinstall windows, then boot off the bootdisk and run lilo. The Windows install in no way touches the Linux partition (unless you run fdisk) and therefore data on the Linux prtition is safe. Only your MBR is overwritten, and that problem can be solved.

You'll have to figure out the right script - on Redhat, I put it in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit To check if the rules are working, try "ipchains -L". -Arun From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Apr 12 21:27:15 2000 Received: from gatekeeper.mahindrabt.com (unknown [202.54.20.162]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A576C3804F for ; Wed, 12 Apr 2000 21:26:58 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from uucp@localhost) by gatekeeper.mahindrabt.com (8.9.3/8.8.6) with UUCP id JAA31821 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Thu, 13 Apr 2000 09:37:56 +0530 Received: from mahindrabt.com ([10.3.2.241]) by intranet.chand.mahindrabt.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id JAA27914 for ; Thu, 13 Apr 2000 09:45:14 +0530 Message-ID: <38F5480B.118FB757@mahindrabt.com> Date: Thu, 13 Apr 2000 09:37:39 +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: Recovering Windows Partition Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200004/753 > > "Lost & Found lets you automatically recover and restore data after > > accidental (or even intentional) data loss, or from corrupted media > > caused by a disk crash or logical system failure.

A formatted partition [thorough format with clearing unused space] sets all bits to 0, making it impossible to recover data from the same device. There are ways of guessing disk parameters if the disk is damaged, and trying to recover data from such a disk but there is no way to extract data from a physically intact and reformatted disk. The claims are far fetched. And this discussion has been recycled for more than it is worth. Killing the thread.

If you are tring to telnet from CDE on Digital Unix to Linux, the term type (decterm) is supported in Linux. There are a whole bunch of Digital term types on my machine in /usr/share/terminfo/d. The reverse may be a problem - the console termtype of linux, called linux, might not be supported by Digital Unix. The solution? Before telnetting, just execute the command export TERM=vt102 (the ubiquitous term supported by all (?) computers across the world) . You can use the .telnetrc file also for this.

Try to export all these from your exchange user database to a .csv file and then build a shell script to add them to /etc/virtusertable (for virtual users) or feed them to the adduser script (if you want to give them regular logins) I suggest you don't do this. Just have sendmail / any other linux mailserver as a smarthost and firewall for your exchange server and disable exchange's pop3 and smtp modes.

If you mean importing users _alone_ then I guess there is no easy way that I am aware of. But moving the mailboxes should be easy, just pop all the mails from individual mailboxes on the exchange server using fetchmail and deliver them to the respective users on the gnu/linux box.

When you reformat a hard disk, the data is *not* overwritten - it's just the filesystem control tables (like the FAT and root directory) that are cleared. So it *is* possible (theoretically at least) to recover almost the entire data on the hard disk if you haven't written new files to the partition (overwriting the old data).

Dear Kala, You are absolutely right. That is WHY I insisted that a through format with clearing space [I take back 'unused'] would sweep the device clean. I am sure you understand that there are utilities that accomplish this. Yes, the DOS format, may not be doing this. But what happens when the HDD is formatted for a different fs like ext2, rather than FAT?

We've installed the rsync package, edited the inetd configuration file and got rsync running. It is also able to compare and copy files across 2 directories, if source and destination is local. (We used anonymous rsync for this, and never succeeded in using authentication protocol. How can it be done? ) We want to test this with remote. Without using another linux box, in the same linux machine how do we use rsync as if it is connecting to remote. Thanks, Murali Differentiated Software Solutions Pvt. Ltd., 176, Gr.

In a nutshell, --rsh=COMMAND switch to rsync allows you to specify any *drop in* replacement of rsh for use with rsync. So just install ssh, you can pick up the stuff from ftp://zeolite.sscu.iisc.ernet.in/pub/local. Start the ssh daemon, and then use rsync with --rsh=/usr/local/bin/ssh to specify the rsh replacement.

I *don't* have a TNT2, but there are a few things u could do in general to get better speeds than 1fps... 1. Turn off GLX extensions 2. Turn off vertex lighting 3. Turn off multitexture 4. Turn off polygon detail Also, try to insmod the tdfx driver outside X, it increases speeds...And try not to look into the fogs, atleast the red ones, they slow down Q3 like anything on my Voodoo3(sigh) You could also do chmod +s /usr/local/games/quake3/quake3 to give it all the CPU power it needs... It would be great if someone puts all the permutations and combinations to test and puts up a page about the pitfalls and the success stories in some sort of a HOW-to..BTW, Nikhil, can the UtahGLX work with a V3banshee **************************************** Sthitaprajna @mailandnews.com **************************************** From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Apr 13 01:30:19 2000 Received: from bgl2.vsnl.net.in (bgl2.vsnl.net.in [202.54.12.46]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D40A23809E for ; Thu, 13 Apr 2000 01:30:07 -0700 (PDT) Received: from linux.sankyasys (IDENT:root@[203.197.177.95]) by bgl2.vsnl.net.in (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id NAA00284 for ; Thu, 13 Apr 2000 13:47:01 +0530 (IST) Received: (from kala@localhost) by linux.sankyasys (8.9.3/8.8.7) id NAA03844 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Thu, 13 Apr 2000 13:55:38 +0530 Date: Thu, 13 Apr 2000 13:55:38 +0530 From: Babu Kalakrishnan To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Recovering Windows Partition Message-ID: <20000413135538.A3647@linux.sankyasys> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre3us In-Reply-To: <38F560B0.9A708D28@mahindrabt.com> 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: 200004/778 On Thu, Apr 13, 2000 at 11:22:49AM +0530, Rohit typed: > > You are absolutely right.

Once in every 3-4 days, it starts giving "Out of memory" messages on the console and freezes up (I can only ping it, no telnet/ftp...). My guess is that there is some process executing with root privileges that is malloc'ing memory but not freeing it. I want to know whether there is any way by which I can know which was the offending process when I reboot it.

His modus operandi appears to be to solicit technical articles from people by sending them a Word attachment describing the "deal". Apart from the completely obnoxious way this person is soliciting (using spam), he appears to be basically looking for stuff to boost his Mumbai based operations. All his communication speaks of his Mumbai office, including needing developers for his Mumbai operations. There is also a big question about the genuineness of this offer. I have no proof of this being a scam, but have seen several of scams before that operated in a similar fashion, so I urge you to be cautious. Previous scams I have seen solicit documents, which are then "rejected", but quietly used anyway later, usually under another name. I have checked the websites in quetsion, and have found most articles there apparently written by one or two persons. The Word document he encloses definitely does not inspire confidence. I could be wrong - anyone who has done business with him and actually seen the money, please let me know. He has so far spammed me several times - at several of my email addresses, almost every time with a 37 KB MS Word attachment. More than a dozen people have also reported that they have received this spam in which the covering email note starts with "Dear Atul Chitnis" or "Dear Atul"! Whether this was intentional or a mistake is hard to say, but I have heard from people I do not know at all, asking why they received a message addressed to me. And this has been going on for more than a month now. Some people receive the message without the attachment (one of the messages to me was without the attachment). As an example, Nikhil Datta and I received a solicitation one evening at the same time - Nikhil's offer contained the document, but mine didn't. The messages were posted within seconds of each other. He seems to be milking of mailing lists (especially the Linux India lists), websites and magazines (PCQ, Chip, etc.) for addresses, and there does not appear to be any sort of technical qualification - I know of several people who have received this offer who couldn't write a two-line tech note if their life depended on it. It is also possible that this is an attempt to get more exposure for his websites. I would advise *everyone* receiving this "offer" to treat it with extreme caution, for three reasons: - it is very clearly spam (unsolicited email), and this form of solicitation should not be encouraged in any way. - there is no way of proving the genuineness of the offer. - several people have forwarded this "offer document" to other people. In the process, the enclosed Word document could get infected with a macro virus if the document has been opened with an infected copy of Word. Please note that while I could be completely wrong about this, I am *not* wrong about his solicitation methods, which is spam. Each time attaching an unsolicited (and potentially dangerous) document just compounds the offence.

Hi there, Firstly, the mail is intended for people who like to peek and try out things :-) Whenever there is a problem in configuring hardware in Linux, check out the Linux Hardware Compatibility howto. It is always a good idea to check out the http://www.linuxdoc.org for updated HOWTO's. Usually the driver is available, unless it is a rarely used card or a new one. And if it is compatible, then the module to be used for that and relevant links are also given. If not atleast you are directed to some location for finding the relevant information. And usually the kernel source code is also installed. A look at /usr/src/linux/Documentation/[networking,sound,etc..] will contain info about what cards are suppported and how to configure them including pnp cards and modules needed. Follow the instructions and try out different values of io,irq etc and once it works fine. You are on. save those settings somewhere you can collect later when needed. This is independent of any distribution. Well, that's I how I am able to live with Corel, SuSE, RedHat and debian at the same time. I rarely use linuxconf, sndconfig or any other tool b'coz it is so much fun otherwise. As I said b4 this mail is intended for people who like to try out. I Know I know desktop users might not want to do it, but it also depends on your enthu. :-) HTH Regards - Khader -- Syed Khader Vali (Siddiq) - Linux Guy, LCC IBM Global Services , India Work -- sidgeek@austin.ibm.com, skhader@in.ibm.com Play -- sid@sidcarter.com Debian GNU/Linux ( Woody ) http://www.sidcarter.com From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Apr 13 11:57:54 2000 Received: from m1lw1.vsnl.net.in (unknown [202.54.31.1]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 178C938095 for ; Thu, 13 Apr 2000 11:57:38 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost.localdomain (IDENT:root@[202.54.56.86]) by m1lw1.vsnl.net.in (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id AAA04165; Fri, 14 Apr 2000 00:27:58 +0530 (IST) Received: from localhost (govind@localhost) by localhost.localdomain (8.9.3/8.8.7) with ESMTP id AAA01041; Fri, 14 Apr 2000 00:21:23 +0530 Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2000 00:21:23 +0530 (IST) From: Govind Chandra To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Cc: surajkumar77@yahoo.com Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII X-Archive-Number: 200004/801 Suraj Kumar wrote >I want to know that which is the best distribution of linux for >a casual or moderate user of Linux like me. i presently have >installed Red Hat Linux 6.1 distributed with PCQ CD.

What are the benefits and problems >of these distributions. Are they really different from each I tried installing SuSE on a friends machine but gave up because it demands that all the partitions that are to be used by SuSE Linux be contiguous. See, I have my partitions like this: primary: /dosc / swap extended: /dosd /usr /usr/local /home SuSE refused to install on such a partitioning scheme. I did not go beyond this because I just did not want to alter the partitioning scheme. I would like to know whether SuSE lets you decide the mount points for various file systems or not if you give it all the linux partitions contiguous. BTW I was unble to create the above partitions with DiskDruid that comes with RH 6.1. Druid also seemed to decide the dos and linux mount points on its own. e.g. as soon as you say you want a FAT partition it pushes it to /dev/hda5 whether you want it there or not. The earlier RH 5.0 (PCQ May 1998) gave a choice of using Druid or fdisk during the installation. I still use that CD to make the partitions that I want as I want with fdisk and then abort the installation. Then I reboot using the RH6.1 CD and it lets me install on the existing partitions. This will not work with SuSE if you want your partitions to be similar to mine. SuSE also uses RPMs so one can browse the apps (rpm -q -p) and install something really good on a RH system. If you do that I will appreciate if you share your experiences.

Posting it again just FYI. Thaths maybe you can post this once in a month, just a suggestion :-) Regards - Khader ------------------------------------------------------------------ Here's some guidelines and rules for posting to these lists for comment. Feel free to adapt them to your style. However, unless there is a very compelling reason, try to adhere to these: Guidelines ---------- - Format your message so that it fits within a 80-character window. Long lines don't wrap well on many mail clients and cause difficulty in reading your message. - Put a blank line between paragraphs. This makes your message easier to read and easier to reformat if necessary. - Do not indent the first line of a paragraph. If you follow the previous guideline, paragraph breaks will be evident. - Use full words, not abbreviations. In addition to being difficult to read, abbreviations raise questions about your commitment to what you're posting. Well-known acronyms are fine, but if you're not sure that your readers will understand the acronym, expand it. - Use a meaningful subject. A single word like ``Help!'' doesn't help in understanding the nature of the problem, and may be skipped by a person who may actually have been able to help you. - Change the subject if you're changing the content of the message drastically. - Quote the original, but with discretion. Give enough of the original message to make the context of your posting clear, but do not quote the whole original unless absolutely necessary. - Remove extras when quoting. If the quoted message contained a standard list trailer or a long signature, do remove it in your response. The trailer will get appended anew to your message in any case. - Use standard methods of quoting. Ideally, use ">" as the quote character. This adheres to the USENET and e-mail standard and makes it easy to distinguish multiple levels of quotes. This is also understood by most mail clients, who can then display the message properly. Using non-standard leading characters to distinguish quotes (e.g. "*", "|", etc) can confuse many mailers. - Use punctuation, but sparingly. Multiple "!" or "?" marks add no value to the message, but do succeed in turning off many recipients (yours truly included). - Use the following conventions to emphasise your text: This is *Bold text* This is /italicised text/ This is _The_Name_of_a_Book_or_Magazine_ This is SHOUTING AND NO ONE WILL LISTEN TO YOU IF YOU SHOUT! This is *an action I am doing*, e.g. *grinning, ducking and running* [The difference between *...* used for bold and for denoting actions is usually clear from context. In general, it is preferable to use /italics/ rather than *bold*] - Give enough information to help your reader to help you if you're posting about a problem. Statements like, ``My Apache doesn't work'' are useless since they give no description of the problem, no idea about the methods you tried to identify the problem, and no information (logs, etc) which could help in diagnosing the problem. Give enough information (how did you set it up, what did you do to test it, what was the exact output, what did the logs contain, what versions of software/hardware were you using, etc) to enable remote diagnostics. On the other hand, do not just attach /var/log/messages to your message and expect people to download and wade through 11 MB of data. If you don't have the time or energy to select meaningful information, no one else has either. - Do not send personal messages on the list. Before you press the send button (or S key, or whatever your mailer uses), spend a moment to think about whether your message is of general interest or not. If it isn't, convert it into a personal message going only to the intended recipient and not to the list. - Research your facts before you post solutions to the list. If you're not sure of the solution to a problem, either do not post, or first make sure of all the steps and then post. If you cannot make sure, state very clearly in the message that you're not sure and that the user is trying your solution at his/her own risk. No solution is preferable to a wrong solution, which may cause immense damage. - Try to put yourself in the other person's shoes before you respond to a message. Ask yourself, ``Why did s/he write this? What exactly is s/he looking for?'' before jumping into a discussion. Do this especially if you're planning to respond at an emotional level -- emotions are fine (we're not robots), but frequent public displays of strong emotion will have the effect of reducing your credibility. - Do prefix messages which result in financial gain for anyone with the tag [COMMERCIAL] in the subject line. - It's OK to post off-topic once in a while, but the subject of the message should be at least vaguely related to the interest of the list. E.g. looking for the e-mail of a fellow Linux coder whom you have lost touch with years ago is fine, but looking for a flat in Mumbai may not be. Prefix the subject of off-topic messages with the string [OFF-TOPIC]. Rules ----- - Do not post non-textual messages. Attachments such as HTML and graphics, etc are frowned upon and sending non-text attachments can result in your being banned from the list. - Any other rules? -- Raju ----------------------------------------------- -- Syed Khader Vali (Siddiq) - Linux Guy, LCC IBM Global Services , India Work -- sidgeek@austin.ibm.com, skhader@in.ibm.com Play -- sid@sidcarter.com Debian GNU/Linux ( Woody ) http://www.sidcarter.com From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Apr 13 13:25:21 2000 Received: from dte.vsnl.net.in (dte.vsnl.net.in [202.54.8.4]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9F20C3805A for ; Thu, 13 Apr 2000 13:25:07 -0700 (PDT) Received: from cee (ppp74-205.pppcal.vsnl.net.in [202.54.74.205]) by dte.vsnl.net.in (8.9.1/8.9.1) with SMTP id BAA19553 for ; Fri, 14 Apr 2000 01:53:40 -0500 (GMT) Message-Id: <200004140653.BAA19553@dte.vsnl.net.in> From: "Imtiaz" To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2000 02:01:14 +0530 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Subject: Re: suse is problematic!!!

U could try cleaning the Cddrive head etc. or better replacing the CD that u r using. In my case the installation was pure fun with no hitch and I'm talking of 3 machines at my college with different configs on all three. I did that just to see how well it works. Infact even the network got detected and is working off the SuSe box(we have a Novell Server). This is one feat which even RHL6.1 hadn't been able to achieve(network card ie.). I'd suggest u do a low level format of ur disk in case u don't have anything on it and then boot off the CD. if u go graphical great if not well you always have YaST to work for u. For a low level format enter ur BIOS utility and select the format disk option(but then ur BIOS will have to support such an option). best of luck On 13 Apr 00, at 9:25, surajkumar@123india.com wrote: > To, > linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org > I am totally unable to comprehand that what is the problem with SuSe Linux > 6.3 distributed with Chip April.

It is reading random characters. At a time it is reading two characters for one key press.The characters which it is displaying are not there on that keyboard. I dont know this keyboard but usually they are delivering two characters per keypress. When you press a key, you should have two characters : and when you release the key, you should also get two cahracters : . I'm not sure of the sequence order but it is usually like that (you can check that since the keycode is the same for the two sequences). BTW, you do not get the character which is written on the key you are pressing but a keycode (also known as scancode) which is quite universal. This is a "geographical" representation of the key. This is done like that to allow different keyboard layouts (read languages) without changing the low level driver of the keyboard.

The two codes per keypress is a very good thing, as the keyboard probably doesn't need special initalization. FYI, the codes are for key up and key down. How do you think that the computer repeats keystrokes when you hold down a key? First of all, make sure that the codes are UNIQUE for each key pressed If they aren't, learn how the keyboard operates, i.e. what speed, what parity how many stop bits, etc... The simplest way to 'fix' this 'problem' is to add a layer in your program that converts the characters sent from your palmpilot keyboard to standard ACSII. If you're lucky, you could get away with adding or subtracting an offset, but you'll probably have to statically map each character. i.e. char ch, outch for (;(!arewedone);ch=getacharfromport(argsneeded)) { switch ch case '\0xde': outch = 'a' case '\0xad': outch = 'b' case '\0xbe': outch = 'c' case '\0xef': outch = 'e' etc.... With your keyboard, it's better NOT to think of this as a full terminal, rather think of it as special serial device, like a PLC or bar code reader.

Enlighten me if it is an ISA card? At the time of boot, note down the parameters reflected by BIOS and note the inturrpt requests [IRQs] and DMA values for DSP and MPU. Then plug those values in /etc/conf.modules [I think] after reading this very well commented file. It worked for me, this way. It can work for you.

No tools that I know of. The hard way, I did tell you. As a matter of fact, I had to try something like this, configuring sound, for an Intel motherboard. And sndconfig [On a Red-Hat installation] gave me wonderful results in 10 seconds flat! Great tool!

I have no complaints here. Binand? I usually don't like to be drawn into distro and other flame wars, so I keep silent in such volatile threads. Also, I am not the person to ask about what is there in Chip's SuSE distribution - ever since I bought RHL 6.1 and SuSE 6.3, I haven't really used or even mounted one of these magazine/publisher supplied CDs. But I would like to point out one thing - as Ravikant Rao pointed out in a recent posting, this overdependence on sndconfig and yast and other distro-supplied tools will surely take the fun out of Linux (even though that particular posting was more of a debian advocacy, the point he made is well noted).

Leaving Debian advocacy aside [as that was an impression I got from one of Khader's earlier postings], Still, any pointers to getting there? guidance on how to start everything from scratch? Links? Resources? Binand! Bol! Kuchh hain pass mein? the rpm etc can always be handled from command line. Starting with Yast and install nothing but kernel and some utilities.. Can we move from there?

There had been qutie a few postings regarding new Netscape 6.0 on this list. Out of curiousity, I downloaded and installed. My experience that it is not a `lean -mean version' as it was advertised. Compared to 4.6 which was installed alongwith RedHat 6.1 on my Pentium 133 MHz and 64 Mb RAM m/c, NS 6.0 is very slow to launch. Though it starts off with options to configure, it takes lot of time to display the stuff. I hope that the final version will be better (this is still pre-release). The only `lean' stuff is about the gzip file which one can download! (The blurb on Netscape website also compares the gzip file with I.E. - they should actually compare the sizes of fully installed version too, and compare with Netscape 4.x versions!)

I have been working in it for the last 10 days. No problem whatsoever. In fact X works better in Suse than in RH 6.1 or Corel on my machine. Of course I could not load it on my 2.8 GB partition with Yast 2.3 (or whatever). Somebody on the list suggested a boot floppy. And Yast 1.03 (I suppose) worked fine. I loaded staroffce 5.1 (chip CD again) and it works fine. slightly faster than in RH 6.1. I haven't tried to configure soundcard. however I can listen to music with the kde CD player. I haven't tried anything else. Surprised to see so much mail on Suse is problematic on this list. For it works just fine and fast on my machine.

You've answered your own question - Debian. Actually, Debian does not give you complete and utter freedom. A very basic set of software is absoultely needed (kernel, modules, libc, package management software, login etc.). On top of this basic installation (probably around 80M) you can install only the packages that you need. Thaths -- Lisa: "Dad. You killed the zombie Flanders." Homer: "He was a Zombie?"

The system needs to be designed to provide information on any patient (ie..case sheets) to any doctor logged on to the network. Besides this basic requirement, a knowledge base on procedure of treatment for various symptoms and their success rate, an e-mail/paging facility, etc needs to be made accessible to the doctors logged on to the network. Being a charity trust money is obviously in short supply and therefore we are not in favour of proprietary software. Though I am an Electrical Engineer by training, I know nothing about networking and therefore I need to know whether such Knowledge Management Systems are available in Linux.

I don't know of any that run on Linux. Hi Arun, There is an increasing need to develop applications for implementing VPN in enterprises As you've said Linux has'nt a mail server that supports SSL, so a problem of secure communication arises between Win and lets put it as Non-Win machines. As of now there are no agreed upon protocols,therefore it is up to the software developer to use his ingenuity and come up with a solution. The solution being use of some encryption techniques on the data and sending it over by some established means i.e ftp,http etc.. and decoding at the recieving end. The same is applicable to files or mail. Therefore we're looking at something that's definately like PGP for secure communications. It's not Network Security ,in the sense of restricting access ,but security from unauthorized access in the Network. bye, Kaushik Sen From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sat Apr 15 01:06:23 2000 Received: from cal2.vsnl.net.in (cal2.vsnl.net.in [202.54.9.26]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5B42E3808C for ; Sat, 15 Apr 2000 01:06:01 -0700 (PDT) Received: from -yyy (ppp53-151.pppcal.vsnl.net.in [202.54.53.151]) by cal2.vsnl.net.in (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id NAA22268; Sat, 15 Apr 2000 13:35:06 +0500 (GMT+0500) Message-ID: <000101bf7d0b$55aa4e40$973536ca@-yyy> From: " SEN" To: "Linux-India" Cc: "Linux-India" Subject: ReUsing PGP Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2000 16:21:40 +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 4.72.3110.1 X-Archive-Number: 200004/857 >>>Sthitaprajna@mailandnews.com said ..... ..... etc...... 4] How to use pgp I'll answer [no 4] , since I'am working on one PGP like software--- **To install PGP ,go through the readme files in /doc dir ,in case you have obtained a .rpm version, install it from the File Manager using Open With,bring up the Rpm installer package and press ,the install bttn. { This saves you from typing $ rpm -uvh ... etc at prompt } ->The PGP related help should be available now in /docs **** During installation ,the installer asks you which folders to store your public and private key-ring. Tip - in addition to storing your key-rings in the HDD,it is advisible to store a backup of your key-rings in a Floppy, in case the Originals are accidentally damaged. Though PGP is touted as a public key software, public key encryption is used only to encrypt your keys{ the algorithm used being RSA in older versions and Deffie-Hellman in newer versions}. Therefore it is imperative to check with whomesoever you are communicating, if he is using a version supported by yours. Exchanging keys between the two systems does not work. The actual data is encrypted in a symetric key algorithm ,{Namely IDEA algo} in both versions . You encrypt your data using your public key,which you may saftely post to everyone you like,over insecure lines. But you can decrypt the data you're recieving only through your private key which you must keep Secret. In case you recieve someone else's public key you must store it in your public -key ring. This key is to be used to encrypt the data send to the person,who uses his private key to decrypt your message;and vice-versa if you want to check out a message sent to you. Several public keys are provided in your keyring, you'll see Phil Zimmerman's[the author's] and several others keys. You could start by sending them a message with your public key as an attachment. For more info you, should take a look at the Windows version, which comes with a .pdf manual.

Hi, > The major contribution of Netscape to e-commerce is the SSL Protocol,which has been endorsed by a list of companies as long as your arm, including the Bank of America,Wells Fargo,VISA International etc.... [Based on encryption technology developed by RSA DSI ]SSL is a layer that sits between the basic TCP/IP connection and any app specific protocol like http,ftp etc... When a user connects to a secure server that has e-commerce as its main purpose,the browser -(in this case Netscape)-and the server perform a handshaking routine that authenticates the the identity of the server from its digital signature.They then secretly agree on the level of security needed for the transaction and set of public encryption keys used.After the connection is established the data stream between the user and merchant is encrypted. Not only is the credit card info encrypted,but the entire transaction is scrambled as well. IE -- also includes a security protocol known as SET with roughly the same specs. Now open ssh is a protocol, built into OpenBSD,using 448bit Blowfish encryption(That makes it the most secure system available***Win2000 uses 128 bit keys only).The mentioned algorithm is one of the strongest available to the general public without nasty license/patent laws,source code available for free from Counterpane Labs,to be used in whatever app you want to make. bye Kaushik Sen Equitel Franchise Pvt Ltd. mail to - or From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sat Apr 15 02:36:31 2000 Received: from unknown-147-100.pilot.net (unknown-147-100.pilot.net [198.232.147.100]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 169973806E for ; Sat, 15 Apr 2000 02:36:27 -0700 (PDT) Received: from unknown-24-15.pilot.net (unknown-24-15.pilot.net [206.189.24.15] (may be forged)) by unknown-147-100.pilot.net with ESMTP id CAA29244 for ; Sat, 15 Apr 2000 02:36:26 -0700 (PDT) Received: from new01xbindge.geind.ge.com (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by unknown-24-15.pilot.net with ESMTP id CAA15381 for ; Sat, 15 Apr 2000 02:36:22 -0700 (PDT) Received: by new01xbindge.geind.ge.com with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) id <28SGM0C8>; Sat, 15 Apr 2000 15:08:03 +0530 Message-ID: <7DE228EFB0B7D311B4E100508B6FEC9558141A@NEW02XBINDGE> From: "Unix-Contractor, Wipro (CORP)" To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: RE: Problem with Linux Ping utility Date: Sat, 15 Apr 2000 15:07:58 +0530 Importance: high X-Priority: 1 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" X-Archive-Number: 200004/860 Still the problem remains, this time it is sending 8 pkts some time !!!!

You're right , The US Govt. _used_ to treat high grade encryption software an munitions. They realized the folly of their policy and have eased restrictions on encruption export. But ,restrictions were raised on 128bit key encryption. That might make you wonder, if NSA finds it easy meat already can the hacks be far behind. Versions of PGP using the RSA / IDEA algorithm have been available in international mirror sites for a while now. The legality of using them, however, is not completely clear ? I'have one in my box at home and it's not illegal. Phil Zimmerman the author of PGP got into some tiff with the NSA, over exporting encryption , but he never sold any ,he gave it away for free,so they had to let em go , but not before making changes in the algorithm and reducing the strength of the keys. 1)Does that reassure you in any way ,about the strength of the package ? 2) Do you think it is safe to use something like that in VPN implementing software ?

I wrote some stuff a few days ago for helping out ppl. trying to setup OpenGL on Linux (and run Q3A ;-)! It went down the rabbit hole, so i'm trying to write a better one now... here goes. someone had asked if V3banshee will work in Linux. There is *no* card called V3banshee. There're 2 different cards Voodoo3 and Banshee *both* from 3dfx. The only thing that's common between them is that they *both* integrate 2D and 3D chips on a single card, unlike previous cards (i.e. the V1, and the V2, and the Rush), which were *only* 3D. U can get away (at least on Linux) by using the same drivers for *both* of them. For linux drivers for u're 3dfx cards, please goto http://linux.3dfx.com The website is well documented, but if u still face any probs. u can either post u're question on the 3dfx.glide.linux newsgroup, or ask me. Now, going to the Matrox G-series. These use the patched version of Mesa from utah-glx. U can either grab the patches and compile the drivers yourselves, or for the less adventurous, check out http://www.matroxusers.com/Driver/Linux.html for getting either the sources or the readymade RPMs for RH... For the TNT* users, its not as easy a ride as for the other cards. The drivers are at an awful state. The only choice u have is to get them from utah-glx http://utah-glx.sourceforge.net Apply the patches, and compile u're own drivers. Maybe sometime when i have time, i'll build some compiled drivers (RPM, tgz, deb, etc...), and put them up somewhere... I hope this helps most of the people who wanna get up and running with OpenGL on Linux, and fire off with Q3A. IF u're interested in programming on OpenGL, its a different issue all t'gether.. ;-) Nikhil. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send online invitations with Yahoo!

Linux has an implementation too - freeswan.org - but I haven't checked it out. For encrypting specific application level protocols, the best known method, as Raj suggested, is to go over a SSH tunnel. Even VPN can be implemented on top of it, but ipsec is simply better, because it is designed specifically for this purpose. -Arun PS: FreeBSD 4.0 ships with ipsec support in the base.

I'm kind of surprised - because Taher Elgamal was the chief scientist at Netscape who designed SSL. But a quick websearch says that you're right.

If its there then fine .. else you will have to recompile the kernel with selecting iomega zip drive module in the make menuconfig or whatever. If the module is present then do $ modprobe ppa u can check if the module is loaded by lsmod when u do a modprobe with the zipdisk inserted in ur zipdrive it will tell u which device it is for eg the last line of modprobe is something like this sda : sda4 make a zip directory in ur mnt dir $ mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/zip and ur zip disk is mounted . Since modules have to be loaded everytime the computer boots up ull have to do modprobe everytime ur mounting the zip drive.U can write a init script for this.The docs says that all the modules placed in /lib/modules/boot are loaded during the boot time... i am not sure of this thing.

Why don't you check one of these websites....i forget the URL...the link is available at www.tux.org .....it has a huge table listing all modems that can/cannot be configured in Linux. As far as I know only winmodems containing one of the 'rockwell' chips can be used with Linux, and that's because the company was kind enough to provide the linux drivers for it.

Well this obviously means that it can only be installed on / as /dev and / have to be on the same physical partition AFAIK. I'm not sure, but does the same restriction apply to RedHat also??? Anyone else faced the same problem with redhat/suse??? In fact I came across with the problem b'cos I installed linux with 2 HDD's with /usr on the primary master and with / on the secondary master. I cannot install LILO on the MBR as my Quantum disk manager sits there. LILO is my ONLY boot loader and that according to her cannot sit on /usr due to the /dev restriction... Now eventhough SuSe is installed, LILO isn't (this is from the installer). So I could try booting from floppy and manually editing /etc/lilo.conf to get the required config... Meanwhile any help on this would be of great use... Also is it possible to have LILO on the extended partition that I have on the primary master??? Thanx in advance. Bye ... Narain.

Currently we are trying to use rsync without using rsync server at all. We are using rsh as the transport under rsync. rsync works quite nicely when both the machines are within the same server farm. We tested it across machines which were lying within the same LAN in US. Now when we try to do rsync with one machine in India and one in US it gives 2 messages cmd successful read+AF8-timeout(). Files not copied (or something like that) +ACEAIQ- We tried increasing the timeout period using --timeout option. It doesn't seem to help. I think the timeout is only for login and not for reading the files. Can somebody tell me how to get around this problem. Thanks, Murali Differentiated Software Solutions Pvt. Ltd., 176, Gr.

I am using Redhat Linux 6.1. I would like to know the exact procedure for adding the new drive to my system. I already did it successfully on Win95 and it is working fine. I already have two IDE hard disks (/dev/hda and /dev/hdb) on my system that are configured as Primary master & slave. The cd drive is the secondary master. What is the equivalent of control panel and Add New Hardware in Linux. Also is there any easy way to add & remove h/w (other than autodetection by the os itself) Please reply at the earliest possible Thanks Madhesh __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Make sure that you have added them. Which dial up utility are you using. I recommend using kppp (in KDE). Just go to run program and type kppp. There you can set up your account info: and also add DNS ip addresses. Check out the /etc/resolv.conf file also for incorrect DNS settings.

I have three systems (A, B and C) connected to each other using a Nortel switch. A is a linux box is on a private IP, B is a Linux Masq system (both private and public IP's) and C is another Unix box outside the Masq, on a public IP. I can transfer large files between B and C without problems. However, whenever I try to copy a large file from any Unix machine to A (using FTP, rcp, ssh, whatever), the connection freezes for long periods of time. If I use a Winduhs machine instead of A, file transfers go through without any problems. Anyone seen this freezing problem with a switch earlier? I haven't checked with a hub, but for a number of reasons I feel that the problem will disappear with a hub.

Well .... if you had some data on your disk which you no longer need ,ie you've deleted and you want no one else to see anymore--eg product designs,past marketing strategies,etc.... Someone comes along and recovers it with Lost & Found or any undelete utility at large , would you find yourself in a spot of bother ?? To rectify this maybe you need something like what I'll call a 'File Shredder', which overwrites your original data in a form so that it cannot be recovered using certain prescribed standards. 1) How important is something like that in a Linux Server or a Linux Box ? 2) Are there any packages implementing this already ?

It plays a few midi files If I recall correctly, my old Linux (RH 5.2) had the same problem on my sound card; I had to give the "-a" option to playmidi. The current version does not even seem to have a "-a" option, so I'm not sure what's going on (I'm not at home right now so can't check). Anyway try "-a"; it cant hurt!

Your kernel should automatically be able to detect the CD drive when you boot up. Type 'dmesg' to see if your kernel is detecting the CDROM drive. You say that your CD drive is master on secondary. Under Linux that is equivalent to /dev/hdc. This is what you should do: # ln -s /dev/hdc /dev/cdrom # mkdir /cdrom Edit /etc/fstab and add an entry like the following line to it (if it is not already there): /dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,noauto When you want to mount the CD type (as root): # mount /cdrom and you have your CD drive available.

What does tcpdump or some other sniffer has to say about this mischief? I have seen these problems with the firewalls/masq devices that have not been configured properly and tend to slow down the connections. You must also be seeing that if you telnet to the server you get a prompt after ages. Is it the case? I know I am asking a wrong guy this stupid question, but is DNS, etc configured properly? I hope you are not trying to do any of the LDAP, etc gizmos. What on the switch side? Have you checked the ports on the switch for any excessive collisions, giants, runts, etc? Are the ports configured properly? If it's a 10/100 Mbps switch be sure that it is not configured for auto-negotiation for the bandwidth and the parameters are same as on the linux machines and vice-versa. The whole funda of auto-negotiation sucks in switches because every vendor having it's own standards. Connection goes for a toss or is disrupted every now and then because of the stupid auto-negotiation. I have seen this happening between Sun, Compaq and Cisco boxes. AFAIK, tcpdump is your best friend and should be able to help you with more clues on the problem or maybe by confusing you more :-) Or else put up a sniffer on a switch port...span the port to which the server is connected to the port sniffer is connected. With the help of span you will be able to see the same packets that are being sent to the server on the port on which the sniffer is connected and hence making packets available to you. Better still...hire me for a "small" fees ;-) - Gaurav >-----Original Message----- >From: Raju Mathur [mailto:raju@linux-delhi.org] >Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2000 8:11 AM >To: linux-delhi@localhost.aunet.org; >linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org >Subject: [linux-delhi] Network freezes > > > > > > >Hi, > >I'm facing a weird problem with my network.

No it doesn't report any problem! The system smoothly switches to run level 0, the screen goes blank as it should and reboots. What I wonder that exactly the same system was performing OK with Redhat 6.0 (pcq). I am also able to auto power off from Windows. As I told earlier, now also, I am able to auto power off, but only sometimes. Is there any parameter in the kernel to take care the auto-power-off capability? Do I need to re-compile the kernel? BTW, Khader, I have enjoyed your Answering Machine-HOWTO. Is there any X-interface to this VM-stuff? Where? Presently, I have built a Tcl-TK interface to it on my own. If somebody needs, I shall be happy to provide it. Madhurjya -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Madhurjya P.

Someone put a command logout in your .bashrc or .profile ? Reboot to single user mode "linux single" at LILO prompt and then view the file... also examine your inittab. Try loggin in from different virtual terminals. If the behaviour is not consistent [if not all terms log you out] then the problem is probably in /etc/inittab file.

More seriously... this is a problem with /etc/inittab again [second today, it seems] Do this. 1. What does the prompt look like? $ or #. 2. If # then do this # vi /etc/inittab 3. Find the line containing initdefault 4. You may find 1 there [Red Hat] or S [SuSE Linux] depending on distro. Seems the default runlevel here is single user mode which is actually for maintenance. [Binand, look at your /etc/inittab and tell if S is correct entry for single user mode] 5. Change that to 3 [RHL] or 2 [SuSE]. So much for him. Public on the list, what else could go wrong? Mera dimaag to yahin tak chalta hain :-D If it is not this, then there may be a problem with LILO. Someone could have hacked the machine and put "linux single" in /etc/lilo.conf and run /sbin/lilo -v after that. You will have to modify that file, remove the word [single] from wherever it is found and remove that. And then again do /sbin/lilo -v as root. HTH Rohit PS - I seem to be doing a lot of dirty work around here. And I request all of you once again, most seriously, when a problem is solved, you will please PLEASE post the working solution [elaborate] and problem [brief] for everyone's benefit.

You want POP3 service ? then install a POP3 Server and edit /etc/inetd.conf and enable it by uncommenting ( read the related package doc ).

We have RH 5.2 server loaded on Intel platform. Our client machines have either W95 or W98 and Eudora, MS Outlook type applications are used to read and compose mails. But for the past few months I find that when a client tries to send mails using the said utilities reject the request by displaying a message "Server rejects: Error 551 we do not relay". Whereas when the said utilities are configured with some other IP or server name as SMTP server the mails are being sent by using the said machines. I tried to rectify the problem by scanning through the sendmail.cf file etc but could not do anything solid. Can you bail me out... With regards, Yours J.

I got this address through some other mailing list reference. To begin with 1. I bought a Specialix Multiport Serial PCI card (sx). 2. My system configuration is: Red Hat 6.1 Kernel version 2.2.12 3. I tried to load the driver specialix.o which comes with the redhat system but was unable to load it. 4. So i downloaded the driver from ftp.specialix.co.uk. & the Sx firmware which is was told is needed to realize the ports !! 5. The steps i followed during installation: Checked the list of pci devices which showed the irq value as 9 & ioport address as 0x7080 for the specialix card. Executed mknod as given in sx.txt as mknod /dev/ttyX$i for i = 1 to 32. (since i have two terminal adaptors) mknod /dev/specialix_sxctl with major no: 32 & minor no: 167. After creating the device special files i ran the sxfirmware. The system hung with no response. Nothing particular could be detected in the /var/log/messages. I tried to run sxfirmware without insmoding the driver but this time the sxfirmware program couldn't find the device file although i have already mknoded it. I would appreciate if someone could render help on this. Please send me the installation steps if anyone is sure about it as well as the checks which i can make.

Configure the switch port to 100 Mbps and the same settings on the server too. No . Until and unless specified the packet size will be 1500 bytes. The basis of 100 Mbps technology is the same as the 10 Mbps. Major difference being the bandwidth only. Have you configured different MTU sizes on the switch or on the servers?

In most linuces you shoul have LiLo installed that gives u a LiLo : prompt at system startup. If you've configured it to automatically boot Windows after waiting for 5-10-15... n seconds then it'll boot you not into Lin but into win so there.. Now for the second part you could mean you don't get the graphical interface. Well for that you need to fire up an X server when u are at the $ or # prompt finally after the unending gibberish that tell u about all the daemons etc that Linux runs in the background(and still manages to beat a win machine at speed !). Again for the graphical interface you'll need to have configured X properly. Hey lets drop all this. What's the distro u'r using?

I downloaded it yesterday, and installed. It is neat in all respects. But for one thing - the desktop shortcuts, when one uses sawmill as the window manager, have the text displayed in real ugly font. Does anyone know how to change that font to something legible? I have spent whole of yesterday evening trying to figure this out. Another thing, has anyone used PVM libs on gnu/linux? RH seems to ship them with 6.2. How much changes are needed to your code to exploit the PVM and beuwolf clustering? I suppose it would amount to explicitly breaking up your code in such a way as to use the parallelism.

I have stock RHL 6.1 (PCQ). I had set up my email according to the write up in PCQ and B. Prasad's HOWTO. I had made the following changes to sendmail.cf : DM bom3.vsnl.net.in DS bom3.vsnl.net.in o HoldEpensive = True added e to the MSMTP, MESMTP, MSMTP8, MRELAY lines. sendmail.cw does not have dnl before Allow_unresolvable_domain Things were working fine. I then upgrded Mutt to 1.1.11i. Things were still working fine after adding set_envelope_from=yes in muttrc. All of a sudden, from a few days back, I was unable to send mails. The mail goes upto the sent-mail folder but no further. It does not return with any error message nor is it found in mqueue. Yesterday Suresh asked me to make holdexpensive=true but I knew I already had it =true. Later when I checked, the holdexpensive flag is showing False and there is no e in the MSMTP, MESMTP etc flags. I am positive I did not revert these changes. No one else has access to my computer (I actually lock up the cpu in a special cabinet --- lots of confidential patient files in there), there are no logins shown in /var/log/messages when I have not been in the clinic. There are the following three files in /etc sendmail.cf April 19 sendmail.cf.old Jan 16 sendmail.cf~ Sep 1 I have made changes to sendmail.cf. These changes are also present in sendmail.cf.old but sendmail.cf~ is the original unmodified file. How could sendmail.cf have reverted to it's old unmodified state all by itself ????? I am thoroughly in the dark, sharukh.

Send a test mail to, say, one of the free email services on the net, and check out if the mail actually reaches there. Are you getting bounce messages (mails from MAILER_DAEMON)? Check root's mailbox (or the mailbox of whoever is supposed to get the mail meant for root) to see if anything reached there. 2. What happens when you send email when you are offline? Do they turn up in the queue? What does ls -l /var/spool/mqueue say? > I am positive I did not revert these changes. No one else has access to my > computer (I actually lock up the cpu in a special cabinet --- lots of You are on an RHL system. Did you run linuxconf in between? I think linuxconf runs m4 /usr/lib/sendmail-cf/cf/redhat.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf when you say activate the changes. I am not sure, though. Among other things, to check if sendmail is delivering properly, try the command sendmail -bv -v And check the o/p. If it says mailer esmtp, then probably things are alright. Sendmail logs what it did to a mail in /var/log/maillog. Check there to see what happened to the mails you sent. Especially, the mailer= and the stat= fields of the log message. Post any unexplained messages found there. Regards, Binand -- The prompt for all occasions: export PS1="F:\$(pwd | tr '/[a-z]' '\134\134[A-Z]')> " --------------- Binand Raj S.

If you have 1 card then from 0 to 7. and so on The you add in "/etc/ppp/options.ttyWxx". where options.ttyWxx is the file that is used by ppp for config on that port. This is the crdev script " cd /dev for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 \ 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 do echo -n "$i " mknod /dev/ttyW$i c 75 $i mknod /dev/cuw$i c 76 $i done echo "" " Till Here here is a sample options.ttyWxx file -detach modem crtscts asyncmap 0 mtu 1500 mru 1500 hostname_or_your_ip:any_non_used_ip_of_your_network idle 300 Then you do "telinit q" to invoke the mgetty and then connect.

The modem does not get a HUP signal even after the prson has disconnected from the server. So logically the bash still remains on that port and no one else can connect. I had done a stand by solution by writting a program to kill bash with HUP after the ppp disconnects . I even talked to Rodger Wolf who has written the driver for SX /SI cards. www.bitwizard.nl Even he was not able to solve his own problem. I was very dissappointed he even gave me a new patch (unreleased) of his for 2.2.15pre12 kernel but it gives me reject so that is also not working so i had to switch back to IO 8+ cards.

I'm having a bit of a problem. I hope someone can help me out. I have Mandrake 7.0 running on my home computer (AMD K6 III) I canonly read from the floppy drive, but not able to write anything to it. the disk becomes unusable after that. The same drive works fine in Win98 and WinNT. I have verified all BIOS settings,etc. Reading info from a disk in the drive works well, but writing always fails, right from the time of installation when I was prompted to make a boot disk. Has anybody faced this problem? I'm still very much a linux newbie. Do you need more diagnostic info to pin-point my problem. just lemme know.

This V42BIS is probably part of the "connect" response that the modem spews out. Normally you or chatscript should not see it, but if the modem is setup for "extended responses", then it will respond the connection status details during the connect notification. Try minimizing the modem verbosity by putting an X2 or X1 somewhere in your init string in chatscript. Regards, Kedar.

Well, the simple answer is that by altering the bytes in binaries, you mess the way data structures are stored on the filesystem. What you have to be careful of while editing binaries is that the alignment of bytes in the binary has to be proper wr to the architecture in question. You cannot edit a binary file in a text editor like vi, since it has the habit of putting in newlines (especially at the end of file) ruining the format of the file. emacs has a binary editing mode, and so has vim (vim -b). But you have to be careful to keep the correct number of bytes in the file. So you should be replacing, and in case of executables, only from the text area. vim also has a support program called xxd that helps you edit binary files.

Even the disk that was supposed to be created as the boot disk during install behaved in the same fashion. If I try to boot from that disk, it is just ignored and then goes on to boot off my HD. (obviously the disk is not being recognised as bootable) Thanks 'n Regards, Ashley Moore.

Now he wants to dispose off the 6.4GB HDD. He removed the Linux partition using Red Hat bootable CD(Disk Druid) and saved the Partition table entry. Now if he uses fdisk in dos to remove the extended partition he gets message logical drives present and if he tries to delete logical drives it says no logical drives exist. If he uses delete non-dos partition option he gets message that no non-dos partition exist. How to permanantly delete the linux partition in this case so that entire 6.4GB space is available.

Than I have to manually change the IP address to 202.54.17.30. My /etc/resolv.conf file entry is : nameserver 202.54.17.30 which after connecting to net changes to nameserver 202.54.1.18 I am on a SuSE 6.3 box. Why this is happening ? any clues.

X-Archive-Number: 200004/1129 Hi, I recently installed the ALSA sound drivers on my system. But the ALSA sound modules get unloaded automatically (auto-clean) if it is not used for some time. This should not be a problem normally, but in this case my mixer settings revert to the default (all channels muted) the next time the module gets loaded. Which is, BTW, a little irritating! I used this line in my /etc/conf.modules to get it to restore the mixer settings: post-install snd-card-sb16 alsactl restore This works fine. But I don't want the module to get loaded and unloaded every time - I want it to remain in memory. Is there any way to disable the auto-clean flag? "lsmod" shows "(autoclean)" next to all my sound modules, whereas some of the other modules do not have this flag. -- Mrinal Kalakrishnan (PGP:B1E86F5B) http://listen.to/mrinal - - - - = ( Redhat Linux 6.1 ) = - - - - = ( Kernel 2.2.12-20 ) = - - - - Running Windows on a Pentium is like having a brand new Porsche but only be able to drive backwards with the handbrake on.

How are you trying to download your mail? What is your pop server running? Post headers of a sample mail (telnet in and get the headers) This could be due to one of many factors leading to the headers in incoming mail being mangled, so that your pop client (fetchmail / netscape) refuses to download it.

Inode density is calculated as size of file system/average size of file(4K). I remember of being given this option in slackware distro. Do not remember the version no. Bought in Nov. 98. Still Have the CDs in Pune.. Also, the block-size and how it may be related > to the speed of accessing an HDD and space wastage on the HDD? > the block size is the units in which OS allocates space to a file as and when required. Say block size is 1024 bytes and file is 1026 bytes long, then file occupies 2 blocks with 1022 bytes in second block unused. So generally higher block size causes higher percentage of space wastage. I remeber to see block size of 32K on 2.1GB HDD. So you can guess that on current HDD, it might be 32/64/128K(even!). But keeping lower block size introduces higher no. of read/writes. CPU is interruptyed more no. of times for read/write. By default it is 1 interrupt/block but can be altered using muxmultsectcount in hdparm. Generally 16/32 wors well. So the trade off for block size need be determined after experiments that suits your need. Please correct me if I am wrong/incorrect/inaccurate somewhere..

I agree u'll have to apply a patch and compile Xfree but u can get away by just placing a simple Chipset line in u're XF86Config, forcing X to treat it like a ViRGE/DX, as both have the same 2D h/w.

Though even earlier I was "modprobing" the modules into memory using a script: /etc/rc.d/init.d/alsasound, which is linked to from /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/Sxxalsasound.

Satyam will give a different telephone number for registration. Once you dial to this number you will get connected to net without username/password (yes believe me) the only catch is this will allow access to only one site (how ever a lot can be done from here too) that is memadmin.satyam.net.in Go to this site and complete your registration formalities. If you already have another ISP account, dial and log to this account and go to memadmin.satyam.net.in and you can complete registration formalities. Do not ask help desk of satyam about linux related matter, you will forget your own fundamentals also. -----Original Message----- From: L.V.Gandhi To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Date: Tuesday, April 18, 2000 5:28 AM Subject: [LIH] satyamonline in linux only machine >I have seen satyam online distributing CDs for ISP connection.

The way mutt is calling sendmail, sendmail thinks ALL users are local. So the mails are somewhere (dev/null maybe). If not, maybe Doc Pavri will see a lot of bounces in his postmaster (root) mailbox after a few days (delivery failed ...). If he invokes sendmail explicitly *using sendmail -t -oi -oem -f spavri@bom3.vsnl.net.in* his problem will be solved IMHO. I tried using envelope from on my box - it didn't work, so I reverted to explicitly calling sendmail.

When I click on a TAR-GZ (tgz) or Gzipped file (I use KDE), the Ark shows me a list of files it contains with some number attached with the file names. As a result, I can not retrive the files using Ark, as it complains of not finding the files! I have to go back to the shell and issue the tar command. Also while creating new archive using the Ark, I can not delete the files on the Ark window by right clicking and choosing delete (as the KDE manual says). All were normal when I was on RedHat 5.x. Could anybody have a clue?

LavaPS offers a restful, nonintrusive way to monitor what's happening on your Linux or FreeBSD system.

I was having a system PII 266, 64MB RAM, 4.3 HDD, CLxx65 card and Samtron5Ei. I had hda1 c: and hda5 d: drives of win98. hda7 / , hda6 /boot/ and hda8 swap. I purchased a HDD of 8.4GB and made two partitions first 3gb as ext e:drive and another 2gb as linux partition. first one with dos fdisk and second with linux fdisk. Now I started installing SuSE6.3. First problem. after selection of language, kb and time zone with next screen started hanging. However in support db, earlier I have read text installation is possible by pressing ctrl+A while it shows boot (with in 3 secs). I tried that. Now I could continue install. Now comes the second problem. I tried to install in linux partition of 2nd HDD. Though I had 2gb and minimum install requires much less, I got msg saying the space is not sufficient. Then I tried to install on dos partition. Now it went ok further until X came. Now comes the third problem. I have intellimouse in serial. But it was recognized as PS/2. Hence SAX or XF86Setup was not of use. First i configured mouse using yast and X with xf86config. Now I booted to rh and made a dirs. for /suseroot and /suseboot and mounted them. my RH lilo.conf is as follows. boot=/dev/hda map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b password=xxxxxxx # password is masked. use your own prompt timeout=50 default=win image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.12-20 label=rh initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.12-20.img read-only root=/dev/hda7 image=/suseboot/vmlinuz.suse label=suse # initrd=/suseboot/initrd-2.2.13.img read-only root=/dev/hdb7 other=/dev/hda1 label=win and did /sbin/lilo -v.

A lot of new Compaq machines in HSS have similar problems similar to yours. Any two machines (running Redhat 6.1) having this card, and on the same subnet just cannot ping each other, but can ping any windows machine. The same two machines, when booted into windows, do *not* exhibit this problem, so this is almost certainly a problem with the EtherExpress device driver code in Linux. BTW Naresh, these machines are 550 MHz PIII's, so I'm sure load is not an issue.

In each of these ,the line JAVAHOME was set to JAVAHOME=/usr/local/jdk1.2 6.The connector.sh script was run after which a set of questions appeared on screen . The script asked for the name and version of the server and the apache conf dir. It also asked for "proxy Host IP address <127.0.0.1> " ,"Proxy Port <9098>" ,"Server manager port <9095> " which were not answered by us .,but after which -- "httpd.conf " configuration done !" appeared on screen. 7.The "start-server.sh" script was run. The problem starts after you run the "start-server.sh"script. then you see on the screen " iASP server started" and it fails to come back on the root prompt. Kindly help in getting this started .

X-Archive-Number: 200004/1304 Hi, Sandeep S. Cheema typed: > i get the this: > ERROR: alsactl not found The alsactl program is part of the alsa-utils package. I think you'll need alsa-driver, alsa-lib and alsa-utils. Also, the latest version is 0.5.7. I don't know much about the RPM based installation for ALSA, but for /dev/dsp to work, you have to enable OSS emulation. You'll have to add a few "alias" lines in your /etc/conf.modules like this: (I'll assume you (or the RPM) already added the basic ALSA aliases) alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0 alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm1-oss alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm1-oss This enables you to use /dev/dsp etc. which are the OSS devices. Of course, your RPM installation should have already made the devices in /dev for you. Also make sure that the module parameters are right for your card (in /etc/conf.modules). Read the INSTALL file that came with ALSA (I'm sorry, I don't know if it's there in the RPM installation, just search around somewhere). -- Mrinal Kalakrishnan (PGP:B1E86F5B) http://listen.to/mrinal - - - - = ( Redhat Linux 6.1 ) = - - - - = ( Kernel 2.2.12-20 ) = - - - - "I'm an idiot..

I've run a 17 gig hdd on a VIA mobo, Intel 810 clone mobo, original i810. I've got some machines even dual booting. i think u're friend's BIOS is messed up. i think LBA isn't enabled. Intel mobos are pretty kewl. As for the DVD, i think the Creative DXR is _really_ kewl. For a video card, IMHO S3's the best for 2D, and for 3D there's no better than Voodoo3 now. But if u wanna wait a month more, go for a V4 or a V5, if u're seriously into 3D. btw, i know this is OT, but is there someone from SGI here?

This change is to be made for all the lines that contain this. Please note this is a trial and error method as i do not know your exact setup. you may have to change this value a couple of times till you get it right. usually changing it to one higher or one lower than what is already there should solve your problem. To use the NT boot loader to be able to boot into linux. There are 3 ways of getting a multi boot to work (that I know of). One obviously being - to use lilo and type the option that is required to boot into the appropriate partition. Of the other 2 methods, one make use of modifying the config.sys and autoexec.bat to present a menu and using the loadlin.exe command to load linux. The last method I know of is good only if you have NT running on your machine - to make use of the menu driven interface of the NT boot loader and select the OS of your choice with the cursor keys. thats the one I have elaborated here..... 1. boot into linux. 2. MAKE A BOOTDISK (just incase something goes wrong, you'll be able to get back into it ;-) mkbootdisk -v --device /dev/fd0 2.x.x or dd if=/boot/vmlinuz of=/dev/fd0 bs=8192 3. edit /etc/lilo.conf change the first line to the partition that linux root resides on given your current setup, (lilo in the mbr) the first line would read boot=/dev/hda change that to boot=/dev/hda5 (or whatever partition linux is on) 4. from the command prompt, issue lilo -v this will write the boot info to the boot record of the linux partition only 5. mount your dos partition (C:) hda1, then create a file with the linux boot sector info in it with the command dd if=/dev/hda5 of=/mnt/cdrive/bootsect.lnx this assumes that your linux partition is on /hda5, and you've mounted your C: under /mnt/cdrive. issue the command to reflect your setup. bootsect.lnx is the file that is created. 6. reboot the computer and get into win98 7. change the attributes of C:\boot.ini to make it editable. edit boot.ini 8. add c:\bootsect.lnx="Linux", the string in the quotes can be anything that you would like to see on the boot menu. save the file. 9. from the command prompt of win98, issue the command fdisk /mbr this should restore the original master boot record. 10. reboot the computer. now you should see the NT boot menu directly with the newly added 'Linux' option instead of the lilo boot menu :-) But, If that did'nt work {:-0 (i.e you still get the lilo boot prompt), boot the computer with NT install disk (floppy or CD) go thru to the point where it starts copying the files from the CD to the harddisk and quit - aka. reboot. (you do not need to let it continue) This will install the NT boot loader back into place. 11. reboot a couple of time and check that all entries from the boot menu work correctly. If all is well, then don't forget to change c:\boot.ini attribute back to read-only. Don't hesitate to get back to me if you have any problems :-) Thanks 'n Regards, Ashley Moore - IXD17 E-Mail System Administrator, Batelco, Bahrain.

Guess the solution as I worked out for the PC on which this deadly combo is working might be machine specific but still I'm sending it in. The board was a i810 w/64 M RAM, integrated AGP, sound etc. I used SUSE for the Linux part. the sequence was Windows NT--->Windows 95--->SUSE. a bit of work needs to be done on both ends(NT and Linux). Or to be on the safer side u could use a boot floppy to boot linux everytime, though that is a highly irreliable method of doing it. the partitioning is standard 2047M primary DOS for Win95, 4001M of extended w/FAT16 logical parts of 2017 and 19xxM for NT and the rest unassigned. But that is for my system(8.4G HDD)...yours would differ (but u get the drift ie.). The Lilo Configurating file should look like this ::: **************start of lilo.conf***************************** boot=/dev/hda prompt timeout=100 # Wait for 10 s at the prompt warten, before the default system # is booted. vga = normal # configure Linux boot partitions image = /vmlinuz # Please adapt this : The kernel root = /dev/hda3 # Please adapt this : The Linux root partition !! label = Linux # configuring the Linux boot partition : end # configuring DOS/Win/WinNT boot partition other = /dev/hda1 # Please adapt this : start partition !! label = DOS # whatever you like table = /dev/hda # Please adapt this : must be sda with SCSI instead of hda !! # configuring DOS/Win/WinNT boot partition: end ******************end of lilo.conf************************ Next install Lilo on the MBR by issuuing $ /sbin/lilo You shouldn't have a problem but with Windoes you never know. Do let me know if it works for you and also if it doesn't cause there is another way by which you actually make Windows bend back and boot Linux from the NT Boot Loader!!! yes that too can be done. regards Imtiaz ----- Original Message ----- From: Rajesh Fowkar To: Linux India Mailing List <> Sent: Saturday, April 22, 2000 11:32 PM Subject: win98+winnt+linux > Hi friends, > > My friend yesterday installed linux on his PC ( which already had windows98 and win NT ) in two > partitions.

Open ports are a problem anywhere ... only thing, with Linux, you ~know~ what ports are open. Stuff like nmap, saint, satan etc are all available for you on linux to know ~what~ ports you are running and how to secure them. Just that, with a dialup and no 24*7 dns, it's not much hassle, the problem with open ports on win98 is being backdoored by a trojan and having your passwords sent out - same case with stuff like back orifice etc. Do this - http://www.google.com/search?q=firewall+faq -- Suresh Ramasubramanian + sureshr@staff.juno.com /earth: file system full.

Read the stuff about single, double > and triple indirect inodes in some UNIX text - Bach or McKusick for example. Correct me if I am wrong, but I guess when you talk about "double and triple indirect inodes" you actually meant "double and triple indirect blocks". I don't think inodes are used to double and triple indirect mappings. AFAIK, each inode holds a list of blocks that the file occupies, initially there is a list of plain disk blocks the file occupies, followed by one (or may be more, depending on the file system) indirect block, which essentially holds a list of blocks within it, and a double indirect block. Each inode on disk represents one file exactly. When you have two links to a file, the respective entries in the directory (for the two links) point to the same inode in inode table. By links I mean hard links, not symlinks. In essence an inode is a file. Regards, Kedar. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Kedar N. Patankar.

I think Samsung Samtron monitors are pretty decent, in fact GOOD, if you ask me. So far as Gl or GLi series go, their graphic performance is better than probably _any_ LG or Viewsonic monitor. And mode switching of S S 55E is wonderfully immediate. No klick sound like Viewsonic [they do spend a lot on advertising though.

An i-node is actually a data-structure with 13 pointers being it's content among other required data that it "holds". Ten of these ponters are direct pointers that point to blocks of memory. The other three pointers are the ones that we know as indirect pointers as these do not "directly" point to data-blocks, but instead point to others structures (i-node). This is b'cos, if it were not so the maximum file size of a file in linux would be limited to 10 * (mem-block-sizes). I'm not sure of my numbers but I think the first indirect pointer ie the pointer-11 in original i-node can hold 1024 addresses (ie 1024 blocks can be added to the "file-size"). The case with the double-indirect i-node is that it can hold upto 1024 single-indirect nodes (ie 1024 *1024 blocks can be added to the file size). The triple indirect node is actually meant for REALLY-LARGE files where it provides for some (a really large SUM of course) additional pointers. As can be seen from here this can provide for REALLY VERRRRRRRY LARGE file sizes... So my dear kedar, an inode is actually much much more than just a file... Also like someone else suggested, the inode settings could be manually controlled at installation time in one of the older slackware distros... btw, Rohit, what of u'r experiments with i-nodes???

The indirect pointer just point to a block (that doesn't contain an inode) on the disk that contains a list of pointers to subsequent blocks that contain data. It would be wasteful to replicate all the access and permission related info in each indirect block. The point is that the indirect pointers *don't* point to inodes. They point to plain disk block that contains further pointers. > REALLY VERRRRRRRY LARGE file sizes... So my dear kedar, an inode is > actually much much more than just a file... I fail to see what you mean by "inode is much much more than a file". In fact the statement "In essence an inode is a file" is from Morris Bach's book on Unix internals. What I suppose is meant by the statement is that there is a *one to one* mapping between an inode and a file on the disk, an inode contains all the information about the file that the kernel needs to know (except for process specific info like current offset in the file, file open mode - r/rw/w/a etc.). And an inode is the only way you get to the data in a file. I also fail to see the reason why should the huge capacity of an inode to hold info about the blocks of data occupied by a file should make it "much much more" than a file. > Also like someone else suggested, the inode settings could be manually > controlled at installation time in one of the older slackware distros... No big deal. Even now mke2fs provides you the options to control the inode density ( option -i "bytes-per-inode"). Its just that old slackware allowed you to control this while formatting your basic filesystems. Just do a man mke2fs, it has lot more options to fine tune your filesystem (not on the fly though).

In windows, the scanner software takes a longer time to initiate the scanner. Sane (or is it the USB driver?) does does the same in a jiffy. The actual scanning is slightly faster under linux. But overall, if u take the entire initialing and scanning phase, Linux is the undisputed champ. Another point - in case your scanner goes to sleep (power saving mode), windows might freeze while waking up the scanner, Linux has no such problems. For the older kernels, i had to switch the scanner off and on to wake it up, since 2.3.45+ the problem has been corrected. --Shanu From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Mon Apr 24 03:42:02 2000 Received: from mail.zeenext.com (unknown [203.197.173.3]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7B7B538075 for ; Mon, 24 Apr 2000 03:41:45 -0700 (PDT) Received: from seshu.dwaraka ([203.197.153.110]) by mail.zeenext.com (8.9.3/8.8.7) with ESMTP id QAA20693 for ; Mon, 24 Apr 2000 16:07:06 +0530 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1] helo=satyam.net.in) by seshu.dwaraka with esmtp (Exim 3.12 #1 (Debian)) id 12jlRj-0000Lx-00 for ; Mon, 24 Apr 2000 16:10:51 +0000 Message-ID: <3904720B.E7B2ED40@satyam.net.in> Date: Mon, 24 Apr 2000 16:10:51 +0000 From: Shanker Balan X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.3.51 i586) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: Does AMD500 + sis530 do Linux well?

I use the CVS version, but i think 0.16.4 is pretty close to this. U could even try out efm. It uses imlib2, with its _generous_ use of the Alpha channel! ;) i personally like the cyrus theme. It comes for gkrellm and gtk too, so if u're one of those guys with a taste for dark themes, go for it. Blueheart is pretty kewl too. U'll get 'em all at e.themes.org. But if u're planning to switch to a new WM, i'd suggest getting sawmill. With it's gtk-canvas engine, it truly kix E's ass. The developer seems to be some kind of a machine, as he rolls out a release almost everyday! ;-) sawmill uses LISP, and is too themeable. Since I'm not a huge fan of LISP (and emacs), i stick with E. sawmill is _incredibly_ small as compared to E, takes up less resources too... wel, anyway, tell me whatu choose finally... Nikhil.

If you're using Redhat, use the printtool (in X) to select your driver. The DJ200 is not listed, so use DJ500 instead - it works fine. But you'll find that it prints incredibly slowly, and I don't know how to change the quality settings with that driver.

At home, there is only /var/spool/mail/root. No other file is there in /var/spool/mail. Hence my downloaded mail is still not accessible. How should I create the file /var/spool/mail/"username". 2)In pine I get my "from mail address" with user name of Linux. This from address is not suitable for my outgoing mail. That is, if my user name in Linux is xxx, I get from address as: personalname My mail ID is yyy in network mail server. I want the from address as: personalname, when logged in with username xxx in Linux. Could not find any hints in man pine.

I more or less made up my mind about the hardware: Intel SR440BX or something mobo, onboard RIVA TNT and some SoundBlaster type sound card, 20G IBM disk (which Vipul suggests runs much faster than equivalent Seagate ones), 8x or 10x DVD, Phillips or LG monitor (depending on which gives decent 1280x1024x32 without flicker), 128MB, etc. Now Amit Kalra (who's making the system for me) is going around hunting for the mobo, which apparently is completely out of stock everywhere. It seems that prices are expected to go down, so everyone has cleared their old stocks. What's this problem with 17G/20G disks not being completely recognised by Intel mobo's? Anyone know a solution?

However the resolution and clarity you can get with a TV monitor will be poor compared to a computer monitor.....this is not a significant problem when watching movies though...only problem is that you can read text clearly when using TV as the monitor. However I have not been able to run X-windows using my TV as the monitor. Under windows95 I have had no problems.

Usually, make install installs program files under /usr/local/bin, program shared files in /usr/local/share, and configuration files in /etc or /usr/etc. You can take a look at the o/p of make install to see where stuff is getting installed. I usually do ./configure --prefix=/usr to get things in /usr/bin rather than /usr/local/bin.

If not, how to No. If only a part of the package got installed, they will remain there.

Some makefiles provide for a make uninstall, but I don't know how reliable it is. Similarly, running make install in a later version of the package usually overwrites the earlier version, if all the configuration parameters are exactly the same. It is to avoid all these problems that RedHat designed RPM. :-) Binand -- The prompt for all occasions: export PS1="F:\$(pwd | tr '/[a-z]' '\134\134[A-Z]')> " --------------- Binand Raj S.

Read what esr says about fetchmail and m$ sexchange in the fetchmail faq at http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/fetchmail - especially the last few paras. S2. How can I use fetchmail with Microsoft Exchange? Fetchmail now supports the proprietary NTLM mode used with M$ Exchange servers. To enable this, configure fetchmail with the --enable-NTLM option and recompile it. Note: if you specify a user option value that looks like `user@domain', the part to the left of the @ will be passed as the username and the part to the right as the NTLM domain. M$ Exchange violates the POP3 RFCs. Its LIST command does not reveal the real sizes of mail in the pop mailbox, but the sizes of the compressed versions in the exchange mail database (thanks to Arjan De Vet and Guido Van Rooij for alerting us to this problem). Fetchmail works with M$ Exchange, despite this brain damage. Two features are compromised. One is that the --limit option will not work right (it will check against compressed and not actual sizes). The other is that a too-small SIZE argument may be passed to your ESMTP listener, assuming you're using one (this should not be a problem unless the actual size of the message is above the listener's configured length limit). Somewhat belatedly, I've learned that there's supposed to be a registry bit that can fix this breakage: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MsExchangeIs\Parameters System\Pop3 Compatibility This is a bitmask that controls the variations from the standard protocol. The bits defined are: 0x00000001: Report exact message sizes for the LIST command 0x00000002: Allow arbitrary linear whitespace between commands and arguments 0x00000004: Enable the LAST command 0x00000008: Allow an empty PASS command (needed for users with blank passwords, but illegal in the protocol) 0x00000010: Relax the length restrictions for arguments to commands (protocol requires 40, but some user names may be longer than that). 0x00000020: Allow spaces in the argument to the USER command. There's another one that may be useful to know about: KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MsExchangeIs\Parameters System\Pop3 Performance 0x00000001: Render messages to a temporary stream instead of sending directly from the database (should always be on) 0x00000002: Flag unrenderable messages (instead of just failing commands) (should only be on if you are seeing the problems reported in KB Q168109) 0x00000004: Return from the QUIT command before all messages have been deleted. The Microsoft pod-person who revealed this information to me admitted that he couldn't find it anywhere in their public knowledge base. Another specific problem we have seen with Exchange servers has as its symptom a response to LOGIN that says "NO Ambiguous Alias". Grant Edwards writes: This means that Exchange Server is too f*&#ing stupid to figure out which mailbox belongs to you. Instead of actually keeping track of which inbox belongs to which user, it uses some half-witted, guess-o-matic heuristic to try to guess your mailbox name from your username. In your case it doesn't work because your username maps to more than one mailbox. For some people it doesn't work because their username maps to zero mailboxes. This is yet another inept, lame, almost criminally negligent design decision from our friends in Redmond. You've got several options: Try giving fetchmail a username of "/NTDomain/NTUsername/MailboxName". Get your administrator to configure the server so that usernames and mailbox names are the same. Get your administrator to add an alias that maps your username explicitly to your mailbox name. But, the best option involves a tactical nuclear weapon (an old ASROC will do), pissing off a lot people who live downwind from Redmond, and your choice of any Linux, NetBSD, FreeBSD, or Solaris CD. I'll provide the CD.

Hi! I have a linux client which is on the same subnet as a WinNT network. I want this client to be visible across the network as a Windows NT workstation. I have configured the smb.conf as enclosed using swat. I have a few queries: 1. My system is visible on the network as a domain client from NT workstation clients after i run samba start from the shell but i can not explore it from any WnNT client. Is there anything that should be different in smb.conf ??? 2. Also, running smbpasswd -j NTDOMAIN -r NT_PDC gives me the following error: ================ cli_net_auth2: Error NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED cli_nt_setup_creds: auth2 challenge failed modify_trust_password: unable to setup the PDC credentials to machine NT_PDC. Error was : NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. 2000/04/25 11:00:37 : change_trust_account_password: Failed to change password for domain NTDOMAIN. ================= Whats the reason for this error? I run this command as root. I have also done smbadduser root:administrator and supplied the domain admin's password for this user before running this command. 3.

Back up your data, login as root and type this # cd /;rm -rf * This will tell you why you should not login as root ;). [I have heard that this was a recommendation on some old slackware install guide] As root, you can do anything, manipulate hardware, data files, delete any binaries (just like on windows) Working as root negates the restrictions imposed by the Unix security model. To draw a simple analogy, you are always logged in as root under Windows. Absolute power is dangerous, and deletions are permanent. No undelete is available on Linux. The damage caused by a silly mistake/irresponsible command can be enormous. If you didn't get my last statement, just follow the steps given in my first statement. Experience is the best teacher ;).

If the search fails, then there is some basic problem in the smb.conf else you can just use it as any other win m/c. To autostart samba, you can use the control panel and run level editor. From there you can add the samba service so that it can start automatically. This is much safer than manually editing the /etc/inetd.conf.

Create a new boot disk using mkbootdsk to create new one. It is always advisable not to use root account because the root has complete access to all the sytem files and configuration files whereas all other users have read access only. As a result, unless and untill you are very sure of what you are doing, it is better not to use root account. Another interesting reason is that the chances of virus infection from internet are more if you have logged in as root(since the root has full access to all the file systems).

The Flatron is probably the flattest monitor and has a great viewing area...mode switching is much faster than teh previous LG crts and it also has dig+analog controls....All in all, for the price, it has remarkable performance...

IIRC RH changed their distro to include the xfs as the font server instead of the older scheme where the X server itself would render the fonts. What is broken in this case is clearly the xfs setup - as is clear from the error reported by X. So I think it makes sense to reinstall xfs, make sure that if you do a /etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs start, then xfs comes up decently and stays there, listening on a unix domain socket (do a netstat). > Specify these in place of unix:1 whatever you have. And see magic! > If it does not work, only then reinstall your X server. This will probably work also, but its an alternate setup.

I have RHL 6.1. My card is SiS 6215. I ran Xconfigurator and selected Unlisted Card from the list. Then, I selected a VGA16 server, the Monitor, and it tested the configuration and everything was fine. And I started Gnome and the resolution I get is (I think) 640 X 480 (I don't know how to check this). If a program window is big in size it goes out of the screen. Also the colour quality is not good. I know that my Monitor supports 800 X 600, 24-bit true colour. I have 2 MB video RAM and I tried various methods described in PC Quest Magazine but it doesn't work. In fact, after I tried the method, X did not work at all. Also, netscape has problems running. It gives an error - 'Netscape cannot run in Pseudocolor 4x' or something like that and that pictures will be displayed in monochrome (Actually, it doesn't even display in Monochrome). Is there some easy way to get X running properly. And also, what files to backup, so that is some method fails I can at least get this working. Please help me. Also, program execution in X is very slow.

DONT get a TNT gfx card. It has _horrible_ drivers and btw, in a recent benchmark for linux, they didn't even include it as they couldn't find a decent set of drivers, which they can compare. NVIDIA was claiming support for linux, but as we can all see, its something of a commercial ploy, and it isn't gonna materialize soon. The XFree86 and PI put in quite a bit of work into the DRI, and NVIDIA plans to write a driver which is _not_ gonna be on DRI. And, btw, their drivers aren't gonna be OSS. It may not matter to end users, but unless a company is _encouraged_ to make their drivers OSS, it may result in more binary-only drivers, and more binary-only apps, and god knows what trojans are hidden behind them. I'd suggest u go for a 3dfx card. a V3 is pretty kewl, and if u plan to a wait a bit more go for a V5, as there is plenty of support for these cards... As for the HDDs above 20GB. as i said i've got a 17 GB hdd running linux pretty kewl. the lilo which comes with RH6.1, has some probs if the boot maps are >1024 cylinders, but u can get away by putting a /boot in a seperate partition somewhere in the begginning of the HDD. Someone on this list claimed that the latest LILO supports >1024 cyls. so i guess its not a problem anymore... Nikhil.

I have compiled this kernel with the reiserFS 2.3.99 beta patch. Everything worked file till I have compiled it with loopback support on in block device. This didn't make problem until i tried to mount a ext2 image with loopback. Case 1- when I specified the mount option with wrong fs type option, the kernel crashed with segmentation fault. Case 2- when I mounted the same with exact file system option and tried to write, in the mounted image, the system frizzed. Moreover, the root privilege becomes exposed in the second case. (I am going through that one and if I get sure about it, I will confirm) I don't have the clue whether this is a bug of kernel 2.3.51 or a bug introduced by reiserFS 2.3.99 beta. I have just found it while playing with my system!! Hence it is too early to make a concrete comment by me. I will provide the further info regarding this later ......

The company's vulnerability-assessment team, or "X-Force," as it is known, says a back-door vulnerability exists for any user running a full version of Red Hat Linux Piranha, which contains Linux Virtual Server software, a Web-based graphical user interface, as well as monitoring and failover applications. ISS and Red Hat Inc. are providing on a fix for the problem. According to ISS, an undocumented back-door password exists in the GUI portion of Piranha that may allow remote users to execute commands on the server from a remote location and may provide access to other systems. This security flaw has been given a "5" rating, on a scale from 1 to 5, because of the flaw's inherent ability to provide damaging access to attackers. The flaw is present in version 0.4.12 of the Piranha GUI, which is part of the latest Red Hat Linux 6.2 distribution. Early versions of Red Hat are not vulnerable. A security breach is possible even if Linux Virtual Server is not used on the system. The system is vulnerable if the affected Piranha-GUI package is installed and the administrator has not changed the password. Chris Rouland, director of X-Force for ISS in Atlanta, does not believe that the back door was installed with malicious intent, but the vulnerability does reinvigorate the debate between open-source and closed-source software. "I think it was just an engineering mistake," says Rouland. Open- source software doesn't have "an engineering organization whose role or job it is to provide quality assurance to commercial software. The upside of open source is that everyone can see it, so if there are glaring holes, you have peer revue." Red Hat has provided updated Piranha, Piranha-doc, and Piranha-GUI packages 0.4.13-1, and recommends that administrators be sure that a new password is installed following the installation.

On the late lamented ECTC BBS, some clueless newbie once asked what "http://www.whatever" meant. The answer, IIRC, was "http" is "how to take printouts" the other charatcters are for formatting "www" is "whenever we want" so, the string stands for "how to take printouts whenever we want". heh.

A detailed guide is given in Beginning Linux Programming, from Wrox Press. (For gnome, its gnome.h, Otherwise you will have to use the X libraries,. For KDE its QT [C++]).

Majordomo2 now sends a reply back to the sender when it sees that a non-subscriber is trying to post to the list. It also forwards it to the -owner for approval / rejection. The note sent to the sender says "You are not subscribed to blah blah blah. The owner will either approve or reject your message etc. If you are getting this message by mistake then here is info that will help you debug it. etc." I decided to start doing this because many people in this list have started Cc-ing the vger.rutgers.edu linux mailing lists on their posts. And when the people subscribed to the vger mailing lists replied-all, their legitimate posts were being rejected. Andrei Hendrick, the author of IDE in the kernel wrote to me and said that such arbitraty rejection was not exactly in the spirit of the open source community. We originally decided to restrict the list to subscribers because there was no easy way of sending non-subscriber posts to the admin for approval. We want the list to be closed from spammers not from legitimate posts. I've rambled on. Coming back to your point about the null sender envelope. I think nick should fix it. Thaths -- Lisa: "Dad.

You can simply search for 'linux' and you will be pretty close to these files. Once you have these three files it is pretty easy to setup X on and i810 motherboard.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200004/1514 Yesterday I went through the SuSE online manual regarding sound. For only, ISA cards, pnpdump and isapnp.conf is necessary. For PCI cards, only configuring modules.conf is sufficient. I have one Zenith machine with ESS Technology 1 card which needs esssolo1.o module. It was there. now that machine works in sound. In my home old ISA yamaha OPL3 card I have. For this I have copied the isapnp conf.file from Rh and commented out all sound lines in modules.conf. This works. But new kmidi in suse63. doesn't work. Whereas midi in RH works for me. This is still a puzzle to be solved. May be needing some more reading and some more tweaking. What is your card. if it is ISA send me isapnp.conf or if it is PCI send me the modules.conf file by private mail. Thanks for the response.

Be rest assured, C graphics programming in Linux is quite easy. Basics first. Linux has a built-in C & C++ compiler(along with many others too), which is installed by default. So, all you need to do it is to write a C program and do cc If no errors, then the Program is compiled and you get a executable -- a.out in your directory. Now type ./a.out THe ./ is specifies that the executable is in the current directory. Refer man page on cc for more options and details man cc The header files are almost the same as in DOS/Windows. But, for graphics you need to go for curses.h Try out and if any problem feel free to ask. Bye Madhesh --- ajaykumar nandigam wrote: > Dear sir, > > I am new user of Linux.

We have a intranet and i want to setup a local(intranet) mailserver. For this a domain name is not required but whereas if i want to send mails out of my domain (i.e. to internet) then i require to register a domain name. But, it was mentioned there that if i have a leased line rather than a dialup line, then i don't need a domain name to send mails to the outside world(internet). Is it right? Is so, what is the easiest way to obtain a domain name (just for mail purpose). Thanks Madhesh __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send online invitations with Yahoo!

When installing Star Office for the first time, choose a network installation. This installs all the required files in /opt/ folder. After that u can individually install Star Office locally for all users. This type of installation puts only abt 2-3 mb of files in each users home dir. Hope this solves ur problem.

Domain registration is same, whether you want to use it for mail or otherwise..You will have to register at Internic, pay the fees and are done. The procedure usually takes a few weeks(from India).

SuSE 6.3 is a pretty good distro. I'd suggest you get familiar with the intricacies of screwing _it_ up before moving to another. ;-) Once you're comfortable with one, you could better appreciate the differences.

Set up a filter which will automatically approve crossposts made by vger members, ask the rutgers admin to do likewise. That should help.

Comparison? Agreed that scsi is and will remain the king w.r.t speed and quality. But when you weigh it against the price, I don't think it can beat a good 5400 or 7200 rpm udma-66 ide disk with a udma-66 interface on mobo. I have a 8.4G udma-66 ide disk (samsung), with an i810 mobo (it has ata/udma-66 interfaces on mobo). After hdparm -c1 -d1 -m16, I get a decent 20MB/s unbuffered and 90MB/s bufferred reads. The standard benchmark of kernel compilation on this box (P-II@400MHz+64MB 100MHz SDRAM) for 2.2.14 kernel finishes within 3min 30 secs. I have timed this *several* times, and it is quite consistent. Same goes for octave compilation or XFree86 compilation. The thing is fast. Noticably faster (almost 1.5 to 2 times) than a P-III@500MHz but with a disk that manages only 9MB/s. I think this 3.5 min for a full kernel compile is pretty fast for most of the tarball compiles you may want to do. Regards, Kedar.

Open /etc/inetd.conf and search for the lines starting with "time". As far as I remember there are only two lines. Uncomment these lines , save and exit from the file. At the command prompt, type killall -HUP inetd Do this on all the m/c you are trying to connect to and this should solve your problem.

However even in such case the bios companies provides BIOS s/w upgrades to introduce the support for larger disks. Concern for running linux is different. These days hard disks have far surpassed the 1024 cylinders mark. Hovering around 16000 cylinders linux is unable to provide full support for it without tweaking. In case u have only linux on your HDD it is not an issue. But if you have multiple OS then a way around this problem is too keep a linux native partition typically 100mb within the first 1024 cylinders and mount it as /boot. Rest of the linux u can dump anywhere u feel like. > IBM is better in IBM/Seagate/Quantum..better seek times, but u >have to rake out more from ur pockets for it..Seagate barracudas are >relatively cheap but slow, my own quantum 6gb is so so There is not much difference in prices... but it is worth to buy the IBM Deskstar 7200rpm disks with ATA66. But then of course if ur m/b doesnt support ATA66 it will not make much diff. Seagate U-series drives are reliable but... they run at 5400rpm and therefore loose out on seek time. Quantum is good as far as life is concerned.. but price to performance ratio is not too good.. if you have the money.. buy Seagate Cheetah x15 18LP. Running at 15000 rpm... there is not match in the market yet. Infact its the only one at that speed right now. To cut the long story short... but IBM Deskstar ( mind it othetr IBM models arent good) Seagate has just released a new range of barracuda drives.. its a different design actually and it kicks ass.... >> 3.

NVIDIA have their own driver framework. No idea which is faster tho. I guess only time will tell. And, btw, NVIDIA drivers run on Mesa 3.0, while the rest use 3.2.

I have a AMD K6-2 450 Mhz, 64 MB RAM with SiS 530 8MB shared AGP Card,and an 8.4 GB HDD and Suse = 6.3 installed on 2.4 GB linux native and 128 MB swap. 1) Firstly, I installed StarOffice 5.1 in Suse 6.3 having logged as root. N= ow, I find that that directory, I installed, ie /root/Office51 is restricted to root and doesn't allow other users to use it. There is also another StarOff= ice directory in /opt/Office51,(I installed Office 5.1 from this directory). Now how do I enable StarOffice to be used by all users. Also which of the above two directories can I delete. (Each directory is 148 MB).=20 2) I have a OPL-Sax3 sound card and how do I install it in Suse. I tried wi= th Yast, but couldn't get anywhere.=20 3) Can I install files from the PCQ RHL 6.1 CD in Suse 6.3. I tried to inst= all VMWare from the RHL 6.1 CD, but it says, wrong kernel distribution 4) I downloaded PcTel modem drivers for Linux. Can anyone help me in installing them on my system?=20 5) Last question, When I installed RHL 6.1 from PCQ CD, I remember the installation took more than an hour for around 1GB of files, but the same w= ith Suse 6.3 took less than 30 minutes. And infact during installation of Suse,= it says, taking 5 minutes is not uncommon on HDD's more than 4GB. What does it mean? And why so much difference in time for installing between the two distributions?

I rather buy a card, which has good drivers, and also which are OSS. Look at 3dfx. They had a guy, Daryll Strauss, working on the glide port to Linux, parallely, which was made OSS. The latest drivers that NVIDIA boasts of uses their own mechanism to hook into the kernel. It's binary only, and just the source which uses the underlying NVIDIA kernel is OSS. It's something like the OSS/Linux drivers, which use a module, which forms an interface between the kernel and the _real_ sound drivers, to keep up with different kernel versions. btw, the OSS/Linux drivers for YMF724 are bogus. I tried them out and i get DMA trouble. It's not OSS, so I cant even fix 'em myself. :=\ Nikhil.

It does have some kewl features for the beginner, but lack of Z-Buffer had been a problem since long. Now u can use the P3D lib along with it for Z-buffering, but i guess the latest CVS has it included too. But this lib can _only_ serve as a stepping stone. u better migrate to OpenGL ASAP, as this is the industry std. API, which truly rox! Nikhil. PS: IMHO, DX sux, cuz so does COM.

Make a file (say crontab) in your home directory containing the following: MAILTO="" * * * * * /bin/sync I think a blank MAILTO is required so that it doesn't send you the output of sync every time (I'm not sure). Then ``install'' it with the command - `crontab crontab'. So now, that it flushes the changes to disk every minute, your problems will reduce dramatically.

Raju -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat, Inc. Security Advisory Synopsis: Piranha web GUI exposure Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:014-10 Issue date: 2000-04-18 Updated on: 2000-04-24 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: piranha remote CGI command Cross references: php - --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: The GUI portion of Piranha may allow any remote attacker to execute commands on the server. This may lead to remote compromise of the server, as well as exposure or defacement of the website. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 6.2 - i386 alpha sparc 3. Problem description: Piranha when it is installed generates a 'secure' web interface ID using the HTML .htaccess method. The information for the account is placed in /home/httpd/html/piranha/secure/passwords which was supposed to be released with a blank password. In fact the password that is actually on the CD is either 'q' or 'piranha'. It was intended that when the administrator loaded the piranha package onto their box, that it was their resonsibility to change that password. This is not a hidden account. It is meerly used to protect the web pages from unauthorized access. The security problem arises from the /home/httpd/html/piranha/secure/passwd.php3 file from which it is possible to execute commands by inserting them into the change password option eg entering 'blah;/bin/command to execute' into the field, and again to verify, everything after the semicolon is executed with the same privilege as the webserver. It is possible at this point to compromise the webserver or do serious damage to the site. 4. Solution: For each RPM for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filename] where filename is the name of the RPM. Temporarily, you should set a password on the web pages as should be done when you first install the package for the sake of speed you can issue the following command htpasswd -c -b /home/httpd/html/piranha/secure/passwords piranha 'password of choice' In theory, this means only you have access to that area and you are hardly likely to try and exploit the problem yourself.

In Red Hat 6.1, sndconfig autodetected by sound card, but I was unable to play Midi files. All other files played perfectly. In SuSE 6.3 I just uncommented the lines for my sound card and now everything just rocks. The midi sound is I feel much better than windows.

Let me be clear about this, actually my i430TX chipset is not capable of UDMA66, I found this info on intel site and on my mobo manual, I varified this in some rough manner on windows and on linux ie by I enabled DMA for HDD on w98/2k, but after reboot, DMA option on system/device manager/HDD gets automatically disabled/cleared. it should stay-selected/enabled if the HDD/supporting chipsets supports DMA according MSHelp In linux i enabled DMA through hdparm, and it crashed the OS and I had to reboot, Well when I did this above for my old quantum UDMA 33, 4GB HDD everything went fine! both in w98/2k and Linux. I still dont know whether this is the correct method to test the UDMA66/ATA2, but it did give some answers hardware Gurus/pantaas may shed some more light on this? --lokee From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Wed Apr 26 21:48:54 2000 Received: from svrsdfbldg.tcscal.co.in (unknown [206.103.11.137]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 7A52D380B0 for ; Wed, 26 Apr 2000 21:48:41 -0700 (PDT) Received: from iname.com ([172.18.10.102]) by svrsdfbldg.tcscal.co.in (Lotus SMTP MTA v4.6.6 (890.1 7-16-1999)) with SMTP id 652568CE.001A7C7F; Thu, 27 Apr 2000 10:20:05 +0530 Message-ID: <3907C6B9.554323B@iname.com> Date: Thu, 27 Apr 2000 10:19:00 +0530 From: Robin Chatterjee Organization: Tata Consultancy Services 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: GUI Based Compression tool Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200004/1645 guitar , linzip both are a bit raw.

There are certain subtle disadvantages when you have PC at home without a UPS. Wish me to name those.. ? There is one BIG subtle advantage. Everytime, EVERY TIME, there was postgres running on my machine and the power was inturrupted, I had to reinstall POSTGRESQL on my machine. You may be running a database or anything where not the sources/buildable binaries are the most important poart, but some application which is BIG in terms of dependencies and open files etc. Then you will realise why JFS is required. Right now I am waiting for Binand to re-burn the first CD of SuSE 6.3 for the JFS support so that I can have a trouble free FS AND not buy a UPS. JFS may not boot your system faster when it is not in trouble but let someone pull the plug when image-processing is going on your front end and postgres is writing a table with 1000s of record at the back end, and you will know that ext2 takes full 5 min to just examine the drive before dropping you to an interactive fsck where it is NOT guaranteed that the FS will come up. _THIS_ is where RFS will come in. Or ext3. I hope someone comes up with this soon.

Install isn't effectively the time for copying the packages and expanding the same in memory? Can we compare the compressed sizes? Expanded sizes? Disk I/Os required? I think mostly this time will depend on you yourself... What say? If you wish to compare, do so with the same pakcages...

In fact after sending this mail about SuSEconfig to the mailing list, I received a mail from SuSE mailing list(which I had subscribed 2 months back and asked question on mounting CD in user login in SuSE 6.3). The fellow from SuSE mailing list told me to make security settings as easy instead of secure in Yast. After that change Yast ran SuSEconfig and this time the error about libwine.so(which was coming earlier) did not come. Is it advisable to make security settings easy so that users other than root can mount CD and floppy ? What would be its effect in SuSE ?

Security Advisory Synopsis: Piranha web GUI exposure Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:014-16 Issue date: 2000-04-18 Updated on: 2000-04-26 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: piranha Cross references: php - --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: The GUI portion of Piranha may allow any remote attacker to execute commands on the server. This may allow a remote attacker to launch additional exploits against a web site from inside the web server. This is an updated release that disables Piranha's web GUI interface unless the site administrator enables it explicitly. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 6.2 - i386 alpha sparc 3. Problem description: When Piranha is installed, it generates a 'secure' web interface ID using the HTML .htaccess method. The information for the account is placed in /home/httpd/html/piranha/secure/passwords which was supposed to be released with a blank password. Unfortunately, the password that is actually on the CD is 'Q'. The original intent was that, when the administrator installed Piranha rpms onto their box, that they would change the default blank password to a password of their own choosing. This is not a hidden account. Its only use is to protect the web pages from unauthorized access. The security problem arises from the http://localhost/piranha/secure/passwd.php3 file. It is possible to execute commands by entering 'blah;some-command' into the password fields. Everything after the semicolon is executed with the same privilege as the webserver. Because of this, it is possible to compromise the webserver or do serious damage to files on the site that are owned by the user 'nobody' or to export a shell using xterm. Updated piranha packages released as version 0.14.3-1 fixed the security vulnerability while still require for the default behavior of requiring the web administrator to reset the password before making the web site public. Because of the security concerns from the community and in order to protect innocent administrators that might not be aware of the need to change the password for Piranha's interface before going live on the Internet, Red Hat is releasing a new set of packages that disable the piranha web interface by default. The site administrator will have to enable the service from the command line by resetting the password as detailed on the main page of the piranha utility. The new packages that include these changes are known as version piranha-0.4.14-1. Users of Red Hat Linux 6.2 are strongly encouraged to upgrade to the new packages if they are actively using piranha on their system (upgrade instructions follow) or to remove the piranha-gui package altogether by issuing the following command: rpm -e piranha-gui 4. Solution: For each RPM for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filename] where filename is the name of the RPM. When you install the update for the piranha-gui, please take a moment to review the instructions presented on the following URL (http://localhost/piranha). This should guide you through the process of installing a password for use with the GUI. 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info): N/A 6. Obsoleted by: N/A 7.

This is not my area of expertise. But I don't think there is such a off-the-shelf tool in existence today. You might have to build a bunch of scripts yourself. This brings me to another point. Forget about having user accounts on any single type of machine. Move all the info to an LDAP directory. And have scripts that will generate user accounts for various platforms from this LDAP directory. Using PAM, the users can be authenticated directly against the LDAP server. One thing I love about Netscape is that they had (have?) the best IS people who designed and built all this stuff from ground up in The Right Way. Friends of mine who moved from Netscape to other high profile companies always bitch to me about how the IS infrastructure in these other companies is screwed up. Thaths -- Lisa: "Dad.

Changing(ie lowering)the security settings allows you to modify some really important config files without SuSE protecting them, then u can change security back to where u started from. > Is it advisable to make security settings easy so that users other > than root can mount CD and floppy ? What would be its effect in SuSE ? Depends upon what u want to do with ur machine, if ur machine is physically accessible to a person who is relatively competent, there are n number of ways to access it( come to think of it, I will make a list to cut down on the n number of ways).

I read that there is such a utility/base file for TeX available. It was in a book I borrowed from the BCL, Mumbai. I can't go there right now, but maybe someone from South Mumbai can? There are only three books there on TeX, one on Plain TeX and the other two on LaTeX. IIRC, this was mentioned in the appendix to one of the LaTeX books. Sorry, I can't remember the names. (A guide to Plain TeX was one, something similar for the LaTex books). Or you could search on the CTAN. Devdas Bhagat -- The only difference between a rut and a grave is their dimensions.

But hardly any of those was of use. Forgive me if I am worng, but it seems that the LIH has become a forum for personal mails and communication! My original problem remains. BTW, I have tried using /dev/mouse, which should be OK as it is pointed to /dev/psaux (as many of you have pointed out that /dev/cuaX are a history) or whatever it might be. Even if the mouse is plugged out, I am still not able to get the status different from what I get when it is plugged in! ioctl(fd, TIOCMGET, &flags); /* fd is the opened device /dev/mouse */ status = (flags & TIOCM_CTS); printf("%d\n",status); Surly, there must be some C and Linux gurus to answer my questions?

Most probably you selected Lock option. For the mouse prob. Just run the prog mouseconfig in a terminal window. Since you have two button mouse, select Generic two button mouse option and check the emulate three buttons checkbox.

According to: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=mouse&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+4.0-RELEASE&format=html you just need to try reading the device.

This will definitely be the safest material for cleaning. But make sure you buy it from an authentic shop. I use this for cleaning the surface of my Canon EOF lense and it does not hard the anti-interference coating, so it might work for you. WHAT fell on your CD?

You also get protease disinfectant tablets for the contact lenses which you dissolve in water and dip the contact lenses in the solution. these tablets dissolve all sorts of grease and protein deposits on the contact lenses, make a solution of about ten tablets in enough water to dip your CD. I have never used these to clean a cd but it should work. I always use "pure" alcohol and it does not damage a cd, Just be sure there's nothing written on the CD with something like marker pen. Try smirnoff vodka, buy a small miniature bottle, should put you back about 35 bucks. If you want stronger stuff, buy any sealed bottle of a Homoeopathic medicine, make sure it is made in germany, thats a stiff 91% alcohol and as pure as you can get; buy any medicine in 30 potency that should be the cheapest, the alcohol will still be as strong. Though, go for the contact lens cleaner and tablets. and as Rohit said, What fell on the CD ? hth, regards, sharukh From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Apr 28 08:36:16 2000 Received: from try16.bheltry (unknown [202.54.63.67]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0076E382A6 for ; Thu, 27 Apr 2000 22:59:06 -0700 (PDT) Received: from try16.bheltry ([127.0.0.1]) by try16.bheltry (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with SMTP id 351 for ; Fri, 28 Apr 2000 11:29:44 +0530 Received: from 10.1.1.36 by try16.bheltry (InterScan E-Mail VirusWall NT); Fri, 28 Apr 2000 11:29:43 +0530 Received: from rptedp01.rpt.bheltry.co.in ([10.7.1.20]) by try15.bheltry.co.in (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id 281 for ; Fri, 28 Apr 2000 11:29:01 +0530 Received: from rpt.behltry.co.in ([10.7.1.176]) by rptedp01.rpt.bheltry.co.in (Netscape Messaging Server 3.6) with ESMTP id 306 for ; Fri, 28 Apr 2000 11:40:17 +0530 Message-ID: <39093E09.BED85681@rpt.behltry.co.in> Date: Fri, 28 Apr 2000 11:30:18 +0400 From: "Dr.S.Sekar" X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.51 [en] (X11; I; Linux 2.2.5-15 i586) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: "linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org" Subject: pine - from address regarding Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200004/1719 Hello friends, I need to set my from address different from the linux user name in pine.

At home, there is only /var/spool/mail/root. No other file is there in /var/spool/mail. Hence my downloaded mail is still not accessible. How should I create the file /var/spool/mail/"username". 2)In pine I get my "from mail address" with user name of Linux. This from address is not suitable for my outgoing mail. That is, if my user name in Linux is xxx, I get from address as: personalname My mail ID is yyy in network mail server. I want the from address as: personalname, when logged in with username xxx in Linux. Could not find any hints in man pine.

If you are using PAP authentication with VSNL you may need to define your username as user_name@bom8 (note the @bom8) in your ifcfg-ppp? as well as /etc/ppp/pap-secrets file. Note that if ur server is bom9 (vsnl.com) then you can define ur username as user_name@vsnl.com but make sure u do it in both places mentioned above...

The problem with trying to control what your users do on the net is that the users will always find ways of circumventing controls. Once the cat is out of the bag, it is very difficult to put it back in. Take what is happening with Napster as an example. Napster is out in the open. Many people have written open source software for the Napster protocol. The Recording Industry (RIAA) which has tons and tons of money to loose if music in the form of mp3s were widely and easily available have woken up late and are trying their best to stop Napster. In the opinion of learned people the RIAA's action is not going to be of much use in the long run. Even if Napster the company is shut down, Napster the idea will prevail. In the opinion of many people the Recording Industry should give up this idea of sueing Napster and concentrate on simpler, cheaper and easier ways of selling digital music to keep up with the trend. This reminds me of the old days when there was a debate whether people should be charged money to get access to content. Most users of the net got used to free (as in "zero cost" and not "freedom of speech") content and refused to pay for any content. I've digressed. Back to track. You can never completely stop your users from using chat. If you block IRC, they will use some online java based chat. If you block that, they will use ICQ / AIM / Yahoo Pager to talk to friends.

Another primary partition should be below 1024 cylinder limit 4. WIN_NT should be on the first primary partition 5. linux /boot should be on the other primary partition (this is below 1024 cylinders and has lilo on it and is the only active (bootable) partition) 6. MBR should have DOS obviously the command to mount ntfs is mount -t ntfs /dev/your_partition /your_mountpoint You need to have ntfs support in the kernel for this. (last time I checked, ntfs could not be used as a module and had to be compiled in the kernel. RedHat kernel comes with ntfs support. Also I could read and write to NTFS partition but could not delete anything) best wishes, Indraneel /*****************************************************************. # Indraneel Majumdar # E-mail: indraneel@123india.com # # 4/2 Arobindo Avenue, # URL: http://scorpius.iwarp.com # # Durgapur, India 713204 # Tel: +91-343-563571 # `*****************************************************************/ On Fri, 28 Apr 2000, Anilkumar wrote: > Dear Linux Users, > I have installed Linux with Win 95/98 several > times, But i have not installed Linux with Windows NT. > Is is same steps to follow when installin Linux with > Win 95 or different, I also plans to use NTFS > partition & FAT . > Is there any command available to mount NTFS > Partition in Linux. > > Anilkumar > > ____________________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Get your free @yahoo.co.uk address at http://mail.yahoo.co.uk > or your free @yahoo.ie address at http://mail.yahoo.ie > > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > 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 Fri Apr 28 14:04:04 2000 Received: from scorpius.SteelCity.Durgapur.

For RedHat this should be ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA /usr/bin/X11/X For SuSE this is ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA /var/X11R6/bin/X (XF86_SVGA for the latest Xserver XFCom_i810 for an older version) This is because XDM (or GDM or KDM or whatever) uses X to start up the display. startx is usually a frontend to xinit which sometimes (but not always) calls X. xinit reads .xinitrc in the home directory at startup. So startx is probably working because .xinitrc is OK but the symbolic link for X is not. Probably that is why the VGA server is starting up instead of SVGA.

You're all on the wrong track! Using _any_ kind of solvent on a CD is asking for trouble. I suggest you take the following steps: 1. Buy yourself a surgical laser (the kind used for eye surgery). This shouldn't set you back more than a few lakhs. 2. Buy yourself an eye surgeon. This may cost a little more. 3. Place CD parallel to the line of fire of the laser. 4. Ask eye surgeon to bring laser closer to the CD until only the stain is burnt off. 5. Use laser on surgeon before he sends you the bill. 6. Voila! You have a clean CD. Now that we have exhausted every possible way of cleaning a CD, can we move on to some thing more topical?????????

K6-2 is supposed to be opposite to P-II but at the same clock speeds, P-II is a far better performer than K6-2. P-III is supposed to be equivalent to a K6-III but K6-III doesnt show a good performance in processer intensive tasks (even when it has the 3D-Now! instuction set). But if u really got lots of money to spend, go for AMD's Athlon (say) 700 Mhz. combined with 128MB RAM and a good 3dfx card (S3-Savage 4), your system will fly ! personally I dont believe in getting the fastest chip in the market (thats y i use a celeron 433) but RAM is important (get at least 128M). regards, Bhavin At 03:41 PM 4/28/00 +0530, you wrote: >Hi, > >Could somebody help me by giving performance comparison on K6-500 Mhz & Intel >Pentium II machines.

BTW I did manage to hunt the bug down.:-) I have a habit of adding/upgrading Perl modules by running the CPAN.pm module which presents an easy module management system ( I know that you know it - This is for the uninformed:-). I have been doing this for a long time under RH 5.2,6,6.1, SuSE 6.2,6.3 .The method for this is to run Perl -MCPAN -e shell and add /updrade modules I need. However , I fell flat on my face with RH 6.2 The Problem is this: Whenever I tried to add _any_ module , I got an error message with a call trace stack ending with an MD5 error which stumped me for a while. Installs failed with lots of messages eg. 'error scanning http, ftp , , md5 error in warning - future reserved word etc.' The botttomline was- The method i had used all this while did not work anymore . I was down to doing vanilla make, make test and make install. Initially, vanilla Perl w/o modules calls lynx -source to get the list of mirrors etc.etc. and then , after getting/installing the libnet module used ftp directly. The trouble- since the url does not include any protocol header, lynx was gratiously adding 'guessing http://, guessing ftp:// etc and suchlike rubbish to _everything_ brought using lynx -source , which however informative , is NOT legal perl code. Hence, nothing could be installed using the defaults. A temporary workaround was to rename lynx to lnx and force CPAN to use ncftpget . A second one was to add libnet by downloading and doing the make , make test and make install cycle , watching carefully for missing dependancies, which CAPN normally takes care of. Once LWP or libnet was installed, everything was back to normal. Do tell me if you have seen any error similar to this at your end and tell me If this error is reproducible.

As far as floating point operations are concerned p-II did better... but for regular applications.. k6-2 faired much better. So its a trade off... frankly if u are playing games... by p-2 otherwise k6-2 is a better buy. Besides... these days the 3dnow technology is well supported... so graphics is well taken care off... p-2 is better doesnt in anyway impy k6-2 is bad... looking at the price to performance ratio is it a good buy. k6-3 was release when p-3 was released. it has the tri-level cache concept which is plain bullshit and a waste of money. k6-2 is a better buy than that. But if i am buying anything from the current market.... Athlon is the one to go for... it kicks ass and i wont elaborate anymore. This is one time AMD had really come up with a masterpiece. No wonder it holds 49% of the marketshare already. It main advantage is sheer processing power. Yes P!!! is great too... but it is way to expensive. Buy a good m/b. As a word of caution... if any1 is buying athlon... and obviously an athlon m/b then.. be careful not to buy cardex or asus riva tnt2 cards... go for creative. for 3dfx as such u need to buy voodoo cards... savage .. err hehe sorry their days are over. Creative Riva TNT2 (beware not M64) is a good buy because it has a tweak for 3dfx so u can enjoy best of both worlds. Diamond Viper 770 is good too. And ofcourse.. for something offbeat but excellent... try matrox g400 dual head.. its a heavenly experience. bla bla bla... i am sick of typing so much... buy anything yaar... everything is good... btw... just for info... hehe i have a s3 virge in one of my machines and frankly... its good enough. -- On Sun, 30 Apr 2000 21:32:36 Nick Hill wrote: >The PIII copermine beats Athlon anyday. > >On Sat, Apr 29, 2000 at 02:13:36PM +0530, Bhavin Sheth wrote: >> Hi Jayanth, >> >> when u check out K6, take care to see if it is K6-2 or K6-III.

I know the space is not the problem but extended partition is the problem. Extended dos partition can not be with suse in chip's cd. cause i have tried allocating 3000gb to primary dos and 1 gb unassinged. Then it was ready to install suse. If this problem ( of extended dos partition ) is unsolvable then suse is useless for me. I think red hat doesn't have such restrictions. Please guide me to solve the problem. Some times back i have posted the same problem and someone suggested that ishould first create partition with redhat 6.1(boot from cd, create partion from disk drue, save changes, and reboot), in this case suse shows the 1.5 gb linux native partition but when i selected it for installation same message appears. I don't know what to do? Pls reply as soon as possible.

AMD was late to bring out its competitor as against the p2. the piii, esp. the copermine, kix Athlon's ass anyday. 3dnow, MMX, SSE, katmai, all these do make a difference, but that's not much as compared to the raw clock speed of the processors. and as far as 3dnow goes, all it can be used in is in the video card drivers, to accelerate them too. unless u've got a good 3d accelerator, u're not gonna see any FPS i u're games. all u're gonna get is SFP (secs. per frame). heh. w/o a 3d card u'll be needing a beowulf to do u're rendering. > But if i am buying anything from the current market....

I'm not saying that the Athlon hasn't got stuff, but the PIII is better off, if u're willing to pay the extra moolah. IIRC, Athlons have a bit of RISC in them.

All of a sudden, the proxy has stopped working. The clients are able to ping the proxy server but they are not able to get any webpage. I suspect the proxy is not working. I did /etc/rc.d/init.d/squid start. It says that a child process has been started. But, when i do a ps -a the squid proxy process is not listed there. Also when i immediately do a /etc/rc.d/init.d/squid stop it says ERROR: No running copy of squid found. I have not altered the squid.conf file much. Only the http_port set to the default 3128.

Sounds like you are using YaST2 for installation. Y2 had some problems like reporting disk space in 6.3. You should use good old YaST to carry out the setup. Just see that the correct image is loaded, and the installation works just fine > I know the space is not the problem but extended partition is the > problem.

Maybe the easiest way for u is to fire up rawrite and create a bootdisk with the text install boot image, and then boot from fdd > Some times back i have posted the same problem and someone suggested > that ishould first create partition with redhat 6.1(boot from cd, create > partion from disk drue, save changes, and reboot), in this case suse > shows the 1.5 gb linux native partition but when i selected it for > installation same message appears. If u are comfortable with the druid partitioning tool, do so by all means, it does not matter who partitions it, the disk should be partitioned for Linux and the install will be smooth. Bottomline, stick to YaST. ======================================== Sthitaprajna @mailandnews.com ======================================== From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sun Apr 30 23:49:33 2000 Received: from linux.local (unknown [202.63.101.21]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 74E0F380D8 for ; Sun, 30 Apr 2000 23:49:11 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from nikhilwiz@localhost) by linux.local (8.9.3/8.9.3/SuSE Linux 8.9.3-0.1) id MAA01147 for linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org; Mon, 1 May 2000 12:26:00 +0530 Date: Mon, 1 May 2000 12:25:59 +0530 From: Nick Hill To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Re: [Re: Processor Performance] Message-ID: <20000501122559.B1127@yahoo.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0pre3i In-Reply-To: <20000501040625.12853.qmail@nwcst277.netaddress.usa.net> X-Archive-Number: 200004/1829 u're running all games on a TNT2 in linux? lets see u running UT on it. ;) btw, u're concept of compromising on processor, and going for a good video card wont hold good, when more gfx intensive apps come out. do u know that for getting an optimum performance of a V5 or for that matter a GeForce 2, even a PIII 600 wont do.

And, since u're talking of games anyway, the PIII is a better performer in games, as compared to an Athlon, both on bloze and Linux.
