Write permission on remote machine
Trying to back up one Linspire 4.5 machine to another, installed Konserve and configured for an smb connection to reach the backup directory. Konserve fails for lack of write permission on the remote machine. Checking: --remote machine has the directory set to share, with write permission for user and group, no password required. --local machine (where Konserve runs) shows that BU directory in Network Browser (the Samba shares), but right-click/properties/permissions shows that the local machine does not have write permission on that directory. Attempts to change permission locally fail for lack of permission (catch 22?) --have configured both machines for same user name (root) with same password, and put that into the dialog about client authentication of remote sessions (part of control-panel/network/network-file-sharing). Does putting a name and p/w into local client authentication conflict with a remote directory having no p/w requirement? Any pointers on things to look at?

Of course, this particular machine is not mission critical, so I must stress again that this worked for me, it probably won't work for you. if it does, cool. If not, you've been warned twice :) I created a file /usr/bin/readlink with the following contents: #! /bin/sh true I then installed libc6 using a --force-depends (this is your third warning! This is not a good idea!) I found the libc6 deb in /var/cache/apt/archives, so I cd over there and type dpkg --force-depends -i libc6_2.1.3-4_i386.deb Directly afterwards I ran apt-get: apt-get -f install Luckily, everything still worked, and I was able to proceed to `apt-get upgrade', etc. I'm fairly insane so the above is FYI :) Luck, -- Nathan NormanNetwork Magician, Eclectic Engineer GPG Key ID 1024D/51F98BB7 Eschew Obfuscation Key fingerprint =3D C5F4 A147 416C E0BF AB73 8BEF F0C8 255C 51F9 8BB7

Re: Upgrade failed
Tried that several times, but still get the same internal error. - Original Message - From: Security [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: debian-isp@lists.debian.org Sent: Sunday, April 23, 2000 1:14 AM Subject: Re: Upgrade failed Hi all, attempting to do dist-upgradem, afte downloading 130mb I get the following error Need to get 0B/130MB of archives.

Thanks in advance Bill Bill; I had this awhile ago and if I recall correctly an apt-get -f install did the trick. Although it may have been more than just that. Maybe I used the dist-upgrade again, can't remember. I would suggest running: apt-get update apt-get -f install Maybe someone else can give better detailed advice, but I do know I got it fixed somehow and didn't have to reget all the archives.
