VGA consolefont wanted (acm|sfm get reset)
Holla I want to have a VGA text console. The closest I get is this setting: SCREEN_FONT=default8x9 SCREEN_FONT_MAP=cp437 APP_CHARSET_MAP=cp437 however one of them, sfm or acm, at least get reset sometimes. I am not exactly shure when. however - I always end up with this silly iso01 encodeing. Can someone help me to get true VGA, buildin font encodeing? P.S.: is there a true unicode console?

why does gdomap scan the net?
Hi The GNUstep prg. gdomap (from gstep-base) scans every 5 min the local net. I found a reference in the GNUstep-HOWTO that it has something to do with shared objects which seems to be semi important. What I don't understand is what the scan is for and how to restrict it. The HOWTO tells something about a configfile '/etc/gdomap_addresses' which does not exist. I'd rather prefere not to get 254 udp packages plus 253 'hostunreachable' icmp packages every 5 min (plus the syslog telling me about them) Greetings -- Alexander N.

solved: sudo doesn't ask for passwd
Hi
Sometime ago I filed a bugreport and l8r I also posted here a msg. That sudo
shows some strange behaviour.
I was NEVER asked for a passwd, but thrown right into a rootshell.
My /etc/sudoers just looks like this:
# User privilege specification
rootALL=(ALL) ALL
%sudo ALL=(ALL) ALL
(pretty normal, eh?)
I just couldn't give up on this, so I had a look in the sourcepackage where I
saw that (in check.c):
int user_is_exempt()
{
#ifdef EXEMPTGROUP
struct group *grp;
char **gr_mem;
if ((grp = getgrnam(EXEMPTGROUP)) == NULL)
return(FALSE);
aha ... so no passwd is asked for a group called EXEMPTGROUP.
I then did a grep and found this:
17:50:50/tmp/sudo-1.5.4 %grep EXEMPTGROUP *.{c,h}
check.c:#ifdef EXEMPTGROUP
check.c:if ((grp = getgrnam(EXEMPTGROUP)) == NULL)
options.h:#define EXEMPTGROUP sudo/* no passwd needed for users in this
group */
ARGL ... it was just the groupname. (however sudo is installed by the sudo
package

#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.

BINGO :)
Shall I file again a bugreport or is this intented? I think it should then be
documented that sudo is never asked for a passwd.

Re: 1 swap vs. 2 swap partitions
hi Ship's Log, Lt. Steve Lamb, Stardate 230199.1723: Doesn't this ignore the fact that having two heads working back and forth is faster than just one? Part of the reason people do raid arrays, even at the lower levels, because they get all the heads working at the same time and it lowers access time. I'd think the same would apply to swap. for this you'd need raid support for swap. I am not sure if swap could be on a raid ... however, I am pretty sure that swap has no build in raid support.

Any comment from ppl that use/used COL and RH are most welcome: pros, cons, irritations, wishes. I just used RH no COL but here my experiences: Redhat was a bit easyer to install @1st, well maybe realy easyer, but now it's harder to maintain. (I am the Admin of 2 RH boxes on campus) - Redhat has only one big RPMS dir were everyone is (on there ftp-server) so you always have to read al several page long ls output - the only other dir is then contrib/... were you have to go back several levels and search there again a list in equal length - redhat has no admintool like dselect, not to mention apt which is already now pretty cool. You have a funky looking control-panel, which helps a lot in configurating the printer (that is a big point for RH) but what you cannot do is saying please update my system - Debian is in open devellopment, you can always look in the next (two) distributions and check for packages were you realy want to have the l8est stuff. So in debian you often get realy up2date packges which is sometimes realy handy (on campus vim and mutt is most of the time a selfcompiled version) Greetings -- Alexander N.

Re: Thanks/Switching X managers
hi Ship's Log, Lt. ktb, Stardate 301298.1945: I then used locate .xsession and found three files in /home/kent directory: .xsession~ *~ are backupfiles .xsession that is the right one .xsession-errors that's the errors which occure starting X I placed exec fvwm2 in both the .xsession and .xsession~ files and .xsession is enough used chmod again. I did all steps as a regular user while in the /home directory. $HOME, that is /home/kent, not /home btw. one chmod +x should be enough, you can check with ls -l .xsession if it still has the x-bit set I rebooted and nothing changed in X. The directions at the Debian site said the files should be in the home directory so I moved the three files to /home. Rebooted and no change. What am I doing wrong? rebooting, this is Linux not Windblows :-) have you checked /etc/X11/(Xsession.)options ? there has to be an 'allow-user-xsession' in it otherwise your .xsession is ignored. you should also start your .xsession with the following line #!/bin/sh right at the beginning, marking it as a shell-skript.

Re: sudo doesn't ask for passwd
hi
Ship's Log, Lt. D'jinnie, Stardate 051298.1329:
Ok, I suspect this comment is going to brand me as permanently clueless,
but...debian has some thing where you can authorize your users to su
without supplying a password.
that's for example secure-su which I used to have installed
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge
| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ NameVersionDescription
+++-===-==-
rc secure-su 980403-0.3 su with more security options
however /etc/suauth looks still ok:
# /etc/suauth - secure-su control file. See suauth(5) for full documentation.
# Uncommenting this line will only allow members of group root to su to root.
root:ALL EXCEPT GROUP sudo:DENY
root:GROUP sudo:OWNPASS
it schould still ask me for my own passwd
Since sudo -s seems to be rather analogous
to that, i.e. it runs a root shell for you, could this configuration
somehow work for both su and sudo? What happens when you try to su?
As I skipet back to normal su (suspeckting secure-su) it now asks me for the
root passwd as su is ment to be :)
But anyway, I cannot find anything weired going on

(if it isnt another bug in mount): It was mount-package-2.5 Wed Aug 21 13:10:46 1996 Guy Maor [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Debian 1.1.6) o Added mount 2.5l-1 Fixes major security hole. This is in buzz-fixed! I now installed mount 2.5j from buzz The hack _still works_ so it seemed to be an other problem. I didn't have the chance to trie it on an other computer than mine :) I just installed the mount packege with --force-depend , so I don't know if the prob is maybe outside of mount God bless -- /\ Alexander N.

Hi - let's use this tool as well :) After reading some of the readmefiles I still have some Q. I have Linux 2.0.0 from the German distributor S.u.S.E., after installing some packages directly from sunsite, other from debian I must have confused my system a bit :} this and other problems made me want to reinstall the system. I also increase my hdspace from 1 to 2.2 GB which gives me more space to spead my files :) [and the possibility to make a backup partition :] I wan't to install debian now via etherlink. Which programs do I need for that ? [ dselect , dk??-ftp , ... ] And were are they ? can you give me suggestions in partitoning 1.5 GB ? can I just overwrite my running system or should I first get rid of some parts ? ( i don't wan't the system to crash while I install :) thanx and God bless you -- Alexander N.
