nope, but it sounds like you're installing it from CPAN rather than
installing the packaged version.

try this instead:

apt-get install liburi-perl


btw, most perl modules that you might want are already packaged for
debian. it's generally a good idea to check whether a module has already
been packaged before trying to install it from CPAN.

most perl module have package names like lib*-perl

Re: Multiple Uplinks

Hello, 

forget it, because if you try Load-Balancing between 
the two NIC's you will get a very heavy CPU-Load...

To increase the bandwidth and get redunancy you can 
use a managed CISCO-Switch with two CISCO-Nics which 
do that by hardware without any CPU-Load. 

Michelle

Hi,

I was wondering a few days ago about this... tell me if this is possible
or not.

We have servers with 2 NICs each. Right now, we usually plug in only one
of the NICs to the switch.

However, some people want to have the other NIC connected as well for
redunduncy and additional bandwidth (100Mb per link).

I was thinking that we could do something with routed and /etc/gateways,
but I'm not sure how this would work. We try to run a little extra
software on each server as possible (for a whole number of reasons,
including stability). Do you guys have any suggestions? How do you get
this kind of thing set up with as little fuss as possible?

DNS and FTP servers

2001-06-02 Thread Rajkumar S.

Hi,

Can you suggest a free secure caching only name server.

I know about djbdns, but I guess it is not a full software, I know
maradns, but it is not a caching name server.

Which dns server do you use.

How about FTPd, I use pure-ftpd, any one with any experience with that?

Any comments and experiences will be greatly appreciated.

Hi, 

I'm trying to install an Eicon PRI server card. Got eiconctrl, firmware
works fine. Using isdnctrl to configure ipppx devices. Secure is off.
Although I reject any incoming calls.

Here's a part of my syslog:

... isdn_net: Incoming call without OAD, assuming '0'
isdn_net: call from 0,7,0 - 00
isdn_net: call from 0 - 0 00 ignored

What might be the problem? What's the funny OAD.

ccbill

2001-06-02 Thread Jeff S Wheeler

I hope this isn't considered off-topic.  :-)

Does anyone else on the list deal with, or have customers who use, ccbill?
Two of my customers have had negative experiences with them recently, one
related to their customer-side CGI script(s).  CCBill has not been
cooperative in providing me with any kind of documentation on their data
schema, but realistically both customers need to move away from CCBill's
script to something more robust.

Customer A has serious problems with people subscribing with guessable
passwords, or passwords that are published to password-trading websites
frequently.  They actually get visitors to their site that have found them
by typing ccbill passwords into search engines, and so forth.  They then
have the same 3 or 4 passwords being used from -hundreds- of differing
domainnames, by most likely hundreds or thousands of different persons.  We
have started deleting the abused accounts but the real solution is to stop
allowing customers to choose their own (initial?) passwords.

Customer B has a larger problem.  She now believes CCBill has caused her
account username and password (which she had to share with CCBill to have
them setup their service) to become compromised.  It is possible her
suspicion is correct.  Has anyone else had customer accounts which turned
over passwords to CCBill become compromised recently?  I would think more
than one password would be stolen from them, and thus this would not remain
an isolated incident.


Either way, CCBill has begun to genuinely scare me.  These folks deal with,
on a daily basis, thousands of peoples' credit card numbers and other
individualized non-public information, and from my dealings with them over
the past week and a half, they are grossly underqualified to do so.  Does
anyone else use CCBill, and if so have you had differing experiences?  How
about with other companies that provide similar products?

Re: routing routable IPs over non-routable IPs

While we're on this subject, does anyone know what IANA plans to do with the
vast number of reserved ip ranges.  There are atleast 75 reserved class A
ranges that I don't know what they're reserved for.  People are claiming
we're running out of ip addresses but as far as I can see there's more than
enough left for decades to come.
