RE: Autodetect squid proxy settings

2003-02-13 Thread Maarten Vink
You need at least two things:

1. a proxy configuration script that tells your browser which proxy to use
2. a way to download that script.

The most reliable way is to set up a webserver with the domain name
wpad.your-domain.com serving up this file as wpad.dat (so that becomes
http://wpad.your-domain.com/wpad.dat). The other option is sending the
location of your configuration script via DHCP; you need option 252 for
that.

shaper problem

2003-02-13 Thread Remon Sijrier



Hi,

I have the same problem with shaper as discussed in 
http://lists.debian.org/debian-isp/2002/debian-isp-200210/msg00124.html

The solution to the problem was adding

2/dev/null 

after

tc qdisc del dev eth1 root

But this is actually done in the script itself, 
strange thing is, it doesn't show up in the cbq-init file.

I'm using version shaper 2.2.12-0.7-2 and this is in the 
script:

### Remove root class from device 
$1cbq_device_off () { tc qdisc 
del dev $1 root 2/dev/null} # cbq_device_off
but the result of this in the cbq-init file is 
this:

tc qdisc add dev eth0 root

without the 2/dev/null

So I looked in the older version, 2.2.12-0.6 and 
there the same thing is handeled with this code:

### Remove root class from device 
$1cbq_device_off () { tc qdisc 
del dev $1 root /dev/null 
return} # cbq_device_off

This is what I did in the /etc/init.d/shaper script 
version 2.2.12-0.7-2, 

### Remove root class from device 
$1cbq_device_off () { tc qdisc 
del dev $1 root /dev/null} # cbq_device_off 
   
and now it works without warnings, but I don't know if this is a good 
solution, or a solution at all, because$/dev/null doesn't show up in the 
cbq-init file as well.
Hope somebody can help me,

Thanks 
R. Sijrier


Apache DocumentRoot as symlink

2003-02-13 Thread Rod Rodolico
Been playing with this for a little while. I need to set up my Apache
DocumentRoot to be a symlink on the devel box. Any clues? I can do a work
around, but it would be really nice to just use symlinks.

I have set up followsymlink under the permissions for /, and under several
other directories, and given permissions (very, very lax ones) to all of
the directories I would be linking to, but still no joy.

Any help would be great. BTW, I know never to do this on a production box.

Thanks,

Rod

I did this, and ended up implementing every possible way of proxy
autodetection. 

Did I document it? I remember thinking I should but didn't. Have I
started documenting it now? Yeah, I've put a wiki page up on the Debian
Wiki at;

http://wiki.debian.net/ProxyAutodetectConf

Please contribute/correct as you use.
