It seems my Perl script that I was using to rename these files from
their original names wasn't creating the new filenames right. It was
leaving a space on some of the names so that when the name was used to
rename the file the space was added and throwing off the mv command.
After I made my Perl script correctly all the filenames are created
correctly which allows me to rename all the files w/o trouble.

Subject: Gain root access automatically in runlevel 4
Date: 26 Feb 2001 10:54:53 GMT
Hi all,
I am developing a kiosk system with touchscreen monitor using Linux.
The system will not have a keyboard for user input. My program needs root
access to be run. I set the system to boot to runlevel 4. However, my
program doesn't run. Is there any way to gain root access automatically
(without typing root password with keyboard) when the system boot up?
Thanks in advance.

Subject: help with configuring xdm on RedHat 7
Date: 26 Feb 2001 11:48:13 GMT
Hi everyone,
I am running RH 7 with kernel 2.4.2 on an Intel box
(233MHz/128MB RAM). I would like to connect
to this box with X-Win32 from a Microsoft
Windows. However, nothing seems to be working
for me. Here is what I did:
- from the Linux box:
1) edit the the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xaccess file
to allow access from anywhere,
2) start (or restart) xdm,
-from Microsoft windows (98/NT):
1) Launch X-win32 application (using XDMCP)
Nothing work. I have the same identical RedHat
linux 6.1 box running 2.2.18 and it works there. Are
there any differences between 6.1 and 7.0 that I
should be aware of. If anyone know how to fix this
problem, please help me. I am really desperated for
a solution.
Many Thanks.

Subject: lpd: printing to file (overwrites)
Date: 26 Feb 2001 12:01:28 GMT
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
With my RedHat6.2 system I want to store everything that gets printed to a
queue (lpr -P<queue> <file>) into a file. After some looking and testing
around, I found a construction that almost does the trick.
Almost, because after the first succesful queue-to-print command, the
following commands don't append the data at the end of the file. Worse:
it gets overwritten!
Even stranger is that if my first file is, say 100 lines, and the second
file is only 10 lines, only the first 10 lines of the FIRST file (the
contents of 'safetylist.txt' that is) gets overwritten with the complete
(10 lines of) the data from the SECOND file. Well, isn't that strange...?
My situation:
RedHat 6.2, with default lpr-0.50-4.rpm installed
/etc/printcap (644, root:root)
=============
test:\
:lp=/var/spool/lpd/safetylist.txt:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/blah:\
:sh:
..and in the directory /var/spool/lpd I have:
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4.0k Feb 26 12:12 blah
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Feb 26 12:12 lpd.lock
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Feb 26 12:12 safetylist.txt
The blah-directory contains:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 16 Feb 26 12:12 lock
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 27 Feb 26 12:12 status
This what I have after having sent a few jobs to the 'test'-queue. The
command I use for this is:
# lpr -Ptest /tmp/testfile.txt
Looking at the spool dir and seeing a 'status' file there, seems to
indicate that lpd doesn't agree with sending something to a file. My
opinion is that lpd needs a signal that 'everything's ok, remove the
status-file and/or lock-files', but thats mere speculation from me.
some additional info:
starting up lpd -l doesn't print anything to messages.
lpc> status
test:
queuing is enabled
printing is enabled
no entries
no daemon present
(re)starting test doesn't work either.
lpc> restart test
test:
no daemon to abort
test:
daemon started
Suggestions?
Any help muchly appreciated.

Subject: TDFX framebuffer driver with 2.4.2
Date: Mon, 26 Feb 2001 11:54:57 +0000
Hi all,
I have recently got hold of 2.4.2 and built in the 3dfx frame buffer
driver (tdfx).
At startup, the kernel detects my V3 3000 AGP fine and switches to the
framebuffer driver (or so it says). The Tux logo appears in the upper
left corner and then everything works OK. So why do I post this message
if everything works OK, you ask ?
Well, first, when switching to fbdev, the console becomes white, the
logo
appears and as the kernel keeps printing messages, only the top of the
screen next to the logo remains white. This is ugly and I am wondering
if there is any way to prevent the console to go white in the first
place.
Also, is the position of the logo configurable ?
Second, I have experimented a bit with the "vga" parameter to change the
resolution. Again, this works OK until the kernel switches to fbdev and
resets to, hmmm, 640x480-something. Is this the normal behaviour ?
The fbset utility enables to change the console resolution to, say,
1024x768-8bpp, but that happens after startup. The (obsolete) man page
recommends to put "fbset" into my rc.local script (I am using RH6.2) but
this still means that the fbdev driver is intialised in 640x480. Is it
possible to get tdfx to start with whatever resolution I want ?
I had a look at linux-fbdev.org this morning but couldn't find any
information on that.
Any help/pointer appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
Fabrice

[ Note: you should set your news posting program to wrap text at about
60 columns. ]
When you login, the login program looks in /etc/passwd to find out
what shell it should give you (typically bash or csh, but could be
others). Most shells will execute (read) a script file when started
by the login program, such as ~/.profile. You will have to find out
what shell you are running, and then read the manpage to see what the
name of the startup script is. Then you would edit that file to add
this running of the aim command (usually you will append). You
probably should decide whether aim needs to run in the background (put
an ampersand at the end of the command) or not. I've never used it.

I do not know how experienced I am, but after running R.H.L.5.0 for
a year, and R.H.L.6.0 for about two years, I wanted to install
R.H.L.6.2.3. I cannot be bothered to repartition any more often than
when doing an install. But it seems to me that after running any
release of Linux for a year, you should have a pretty good idea how
much stuff you need to put into any potential partition because you
already know what is in there (or you could find out with tools such
as df and du). It should not be difficult to estimate where the
growth areas might be. For example, /boot is unlikely to more than
double ever. / (if /usr, /home, /opt, /tmp, and /var and things like
that are removed) probably will not grow a whole lot. /opt and /home
would likely be large growth areas for home users. /tmp and /var
(for home users) probably need not be a large percentage of disk
space available and present useage patterns would likely remain the
same.

Also, if you make intensive use of your disk drive(s), and by
intensive use I mean that your system is frequently disk-IO limited,
you could put your partitions in the best possible order and, if you
have more than one hard drive, on the best possible hard drives, for
better performance. I have not done this, since when my machine is
too slow, it is compute-limited. And I am not really sure if that
would matter. If things were as bad as that, I would have to
consider faster drives (if available: mine are already 10,000 rpm
drives on Ultra-2 SCSI interface), more drives, and possibly (but
not likely) more SCSI controllers.
As I said, this does not seem to apply to my machine. I have run
test programs that achieve > 20 Megabyte/second IO rate through my
hard drives, but in the usual case, I seldom exceed 1
Megabyte/second, and 250 Kilobytes/second is more usual. And it is
not this slow because of all the delays for seeks (average seek
time: 5ms, average rotational latency time: 3ms), but because the
CPUs do not come up with the data fast enough.

Bizarre.
It is useful for sendmail, though not usually vital. It is probably
not a security risk, but mine is setup so that only a few systems
(in /etc/hosts.allow) can use it, just in case (my other machine on
my LAN, and my ISP).
Mine is not started as a daemon (I see no use to do that). It is run
only as needed, and since my machine is really mostly a desktop,
that is only a few times per day (when I am sending e-mail through
my ISP to someone on the Internet).
