craetion of /srv/ftp or /home/ftp by a ftpserver.deb

2009-02-18 Thread shaul Karl
1) (/srv/) SRV DATA FOR SERVICES PROVIDED BY SYSTEM 
http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/fhs/fhs-2.3.html#SRVDATAFORSERVICESPROVIDEDBYSYSTEM
  asserts that:

no program should rely on a specific subdirectory structure of /srv 
existing or data necessarily being stored in /srv

2) (/home/) HOME USER HOME DIRECTORIES 
http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/fhs/fhs-2.3.html#HOMEUSERHOMEDIRECTORIES
 asserts that:

no program should rely on this location.

Does that mean that an ftpServer.deb is not allowed to issue 

mkdir /srv/ftp
  or
mkdir /home/ftp

?

  One disables the account, the other sets an invalid password. I think
  that the manpage is quite clear about that.
 
  Perhaps what I really should have asked is about the contents of
  /etc/{passwd,shadow}'s password field for disabled accounts.
  
  One is *, the other is !. I never know which is which.
 
 * is disabled, IIRC, and ! is an invalid password (but would still allow
 logging in with, e.g, an ssh key).  Or so my (often faulty) memory says.


  According to shadow(5),

If the password field contains some string that is not valid result of
crypt(3), for instance ! or *, the user will not be able to use a unix
password to log in, subject to pam(7). 

The way I understand it, the effect of ! or * is identical.
Alternatively, the difference is set by the configuration of pam, which,
I believe, is out of adduser scope. This match my experience that login
through SSH RSA key is possible even if a '!' is used.
  In any case, am I right that adduser's --disabled-login and 
--disabled-password looks to be the same?


 Why didn't you ask the adduser maintainers?
 


  I need to verify my experience: am I wrong that on a default Debian
system a '!' doesn't prevent login through SSH RSA key? Perhaps a
wishlist bug should be submitted against pam?

adduser: what is the difference between --disabled-password and--disabled-login

2005-05-09 Thread Shaul Karl
adduser(8) states that 

With the --disabled-login option, the account will be created but
will be disabled until a password is set. The --disabled-password
option will not set a password, but login are still possible for
example through SSH RSA keys.

I wonder what is the difference? Alternatively, how adduser accomplish 
that? The relevant source lines seem to be:

} elsif ($arg eq quot;--disabled-passwordquot;) {
$ask_passwd = 0;
$disabled_login = 0;
} elsif ($arg eq quot;--disabled-loginquot;) {
$ask_passwd = 0;
$disabled_login = 1;
}

if ($ask_passwd) {
amp;systemcall('/usr/bin/passwd', $new_name);
} else {
if(!$disabled_login) {
amp;systemcall('/usr/sbin/usermod', '-p', '*', $new_name);
}
}

Perhaps what I really should have asked is about the contents of
/etc/{passwd,shadow}'s password field for disabled accounts.

 Description: Protection against buffer overflow vulnerabilities
  Libsafe is a library that works with any pre-compiled executable and can be
  used transparently. Libsafe intercepts calls to functions known as
  vulnerable, libsafe uses a substitute version of the function that
  implements the same functionality, but makes sure any buffer overflows are
  contained within the current stack frame.

Greetings,

The last libsafe upload has been over a year ago. Since then, 
libsafe
has accumulated a large number of bugs. The current Debian release 
doesn't
seem to be very effective. I've packaged the latest libsafe and made it 
available at: http://192.117.130.34/Fendor/debian/libsafe/
Can someone NMU that? I've contacted the maintainer but received no 
reply.
It's a shame that libsafe wouldn't be usable for Debian users.
   
   - the upload isn't marked as a NMU
   
   - the package does not build from source (calls ldconfig):
   
   - the package does not build a -dev package. Correct?
   
   - the package overwrites the old library? Correct, if it's an
 extension only. But then it needs to be marked in the shlibs file.
 Else you need to build a libsafe2 and libsafe-dev package.
 OTOH, no package depends on libsafe.
   
   So it seems, we don't gain much to replace one buggy version with the
   next buggy version.

Re: iso 8859-6 fonts

2001-09-23 Thread Shaul Karl
  
  yeah RTL is true about arabic . And it could be 
 
 solved by making an arabic keymap . 


That is the point. As far as I know, The it is far more complex then one tend 
to think at first glance, especially when you want multi lingual support.
And the keymap, which can be made quite easily is only an input method. It 
does not concern the heart of the problem.


  Just for 
 
  curiosity , do you have arabic developers 
 
  who maintain arabic fonts/programs ?


http://www.debian.org/devel/developers.loc does not show many. Still, it could 
be that no one of them has entered his geographical data and thus does not get 
to be on the map. It could also be that some of them are living in other parts 
of the world.
Yet I do tend to believe that there are very few Arab developers.
I also believe that there is a great need for developers who will concentrate 
on Arabic and, perhaps more importantly, on embedding Arabic, RTL and multi 
lingual in the Unix environment.
In any case you can search by specific countries in http://db.debian.org


  If yes , may i know who ? if no , can some one 
 
  apply to do so ?
 


You might want to read http://nm.debian.org in order to see how to apply to be 
a developer and what you will need in order to become one. However in case you 
are new to Unix you might want to wait until you will have more experience.


  Thanks all for your help

 The Linux console may never get proper RTL support; decent Arabic
 support on the console would be hard to impossible given console font
 limitations. Complex scripts are going to need X support; at the very
 least, you're going to need to run in an Xterm or the like, since Linux
 console is probably always going to be LTR, single width, and
 non-combining.
 


There has to be a standard way to at least have basic unix utils like grep, 
ed, diff and friends to work on files with multi lingual contents and still 
have a reasonable user interface and means to display their output.

 Perl is faster than most people's hand-crafted C code for certain

 On my 68020 machine, using a short perl script was an order of

Can you compare Perl speed to Python?

Yes there is:

works too. I do not know what was changed.

Shouldn't there be a Description field after the MD5sum?

I am not sure but the reason could also be a problem with a local server.
At least for now, after an apt-get update from another server, it looks O.K:
1) The size of the file has grown a lot.
2) Now there is the terminating \n\n.

3) The Description is the last field.

I will watch it.
Thank you for the help.

 I guess it is my fault. Maybe the description of ng-cjk lacks final new-line
 like below, and i guess that's the cause.
 



I am quite sure it is not your fault. 
Although I do not know the cause I run an
apt-get update
for testing from another server. Now everything seems to be fine. There is 
here a problem with the local server and I hope that this, and not my machine, 
are the cause. In addition, no one else has reported to have the same problem.

It looks like the MD5sum is the last line on this file. Another thing is that 

dpkg -l doc-linux-text

now doesn't care - do not know why. Could be that I have added a '\n' there by 
hand, but I am not sure.

I have a

I believe that merging the files is better. As far as I know most of the dates

any case people who live in Israel would likely be interested to know what are 
the dates for people who live outside of Israel and vice versa.

 The New Maintainer team will be re-opening shortly.  In the meantime,
 keep an eye on debian-devel-announce, start reading lists, look for
 something useful to do, maybe help to correct some bugs, and possibly
 take part in the sponsoring system (can't remember the URL to look at

 Read the policy and packaging

 Good luck!

Re: An advise how to apply for the TkMan author to change his license.

 If that's the case it should be a trivial fix.
 

The situation is that I am trying to maintain TkMan while applying to be a 
debian maintainer. The new TkMan license is stated above. Yet as far as I 
understand this license is not enough for asking to get TkMan into main since 
TkMan depends on rman which is in non-free.
It's been more then a week when I posted my message but Stephen M. Moraco 
[EMAIL PROTECTED], the debian maintainer of rman did not reply me. Should I 
wait more? Should I email him my message again? Is that because I am not a 
debian maintainer?
I am considering approaching the author again, this time about rman. I already 
approached him about TkMan and he seems to be most cooperative. Suppose I was 
a debian maintainer, is it ethical of me to approach the upstream author about 
a package that I do not maintain claiming that one of my motivations is the 
desire to put TkMan into debian's main pool? Are there any other reasons why I 
should not
approach him?

Re: official brand for cdroms

1998-05-08 Thread shaul
 maybe the term offical for cdroms be used, if someone sells a set of
 cdroms, constisting of the official cdroms and an extra cd with things
 like debian-non-US, debian-non-free (those parts that are allowed to be burned
 and sold), and other stuff like 2.0 + 2.1 kernel source, netscape, mozilla,
 kde ... ?
 
 does anyone know how dselect can handle installing packages from several cd's 
 ?

1) I also think that such CDs are desirable. Is there somewhere such a 
collection ?
2) direct invokation of dpkg could always be used to overcome dselect 
limitations (or my lack of knowledage on how to use dselect).
