apt upgrade
Hi, I used script with apt-get upgrade -y on Debian 3.0 Woody in crond. Everything was ok when one day call me for problem in that linux. When I enter in console I saw in logs that previous day he was apt-get upgrade -y and upgraded squid. The problem was the new version of squid has one more option in squid.conf, and i have to append the file and done the job by hand. My quiestion is how I can avoid that kind of problems when on some Debian I have that kind of apt scripts. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

radiusd-freeradius
Can anyone briefly summarize the current state of the radiusd-freeradius packages? From what I can tell, the packages were withdrawn for some combination of immaturity/stability/maintainer interest, but there was also an issue with the rlm_pgsql module linking with SSL - was that ever resolved? I'm probably interested in reviving radiusd-freeradius if I'm not stepping on anyone's toes. Or have folks switched to other RADIUS servers?

You can see a web demo, read the documentation, and download the new beta at http://www.sisd.com/freeside/. ObDebian: Although Freeside is not yet packaged, the dependancies are available in unstable and woody. Major new features in 1.4.0 include: - Billing engine has been rewritten and now has support for easily added price plans. Included price plans include anniversary billing, 1st-of-the-month billing (pro-rated and subscription), free for N days, commissions for referrals and per-minute/per-hour charges. - Customer-to-customer referrals, tracking and commissions. - Configurable invoice events triggered for delinquent customers can re-send invoices, suspend accounts, charge late fees, and so on. - Export and provisioning system has been rewritten. New provisioning methods can now be plugged-in for any service type. Included exports include BSD and Linux password files, configurable shell commands, RADIUS (both text and SQL, including groups), BIND configuration files, Cyrus, vpopmail, and many others. - Complete set of history tables tracking all changes to the database. - Job queue with display and retry for provisioning tasks. - UI overhaul - easier to navigate and use. Quick package order and one-time charges. Separate billing and service contact information. Customer comments. - Performance optimizations. - Financials have been rewritten.

You can download the new version, read the documentation, and play with a web demo at http://www.sisd.com/freeside. This is also a request-for-assitance from a more experienced Debian developer for assistance packaging the software. I've packaged some simple programs, but the amount of integration a central billing database has with other systems is making packing difficult. All of the dependencies are already packaged and in woody. For potato, I maintain an apt-able repository of the necessary Perl modules: deb http://cleanwhisker.420.am/pub/debian-unoff stable main 1.3.1 is a bugfix release which fixes all currently known problems with 1.3.0. If the 1.3.0 verison gave you problems, give this version a try. New features of the 1.3.x series include: - Database transactions - Web aging reports - Export of BIND and Apache configuration files. - Session monitor to track and limit usage on a time (hourly/minutely) basis. This can be used, with RADIUS, to keep track of NAS ports, and can also be used to implement hotel- or cafe- type access, where the user must sign in on a webpage before being granted access to the network. In conjunction with the session server, prepaid cards can now be for an amount of time rather than money.

(This is a little vague.) ObDebian: I develop on Debian and am a Debian developer. I'd very much like to upload Freeside packages for 2.3 soon. I'm sorry if the rather generic announcment was a put-off. I'm specifically interested in packaging the software for Debian and it's turning out to be a rather large and hairy problem due to the number of different systems the central billing database interacts with. Help would be most welcome. In the meantime, I've packaged up the missing perl library dependencies and uploaded them to unstable (this was a couple weeks ago, so they should be on all the mirrors by now). -- meow _ivan
Re: Dial-on-demand only works once for a client of the linux-PC
A reboot of the linux router gives the windows98-pc again exactly one possible activation of the dial-on-demand function on it. Just try to restart PPPD. It dies, supposingly. Maybe, you should put it into inittab with "nodetach" option, it's up to you. -- Ivan A. Kasatenko -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Roaming users with Postfix
Hi all! I have recently put together a debian potato postfix package with the SMTP AUTH patch. The options permit_our_users and permit_smtp_authenticated work OK, i.e. users can authenticate with their logion and password. However, postfix keeps denying relaying (?) to other domains from non-local (random) IPs. So, how could I configure postfix to allow relaying for any domain from any IP when the user has AUTHenticated? Thanx in advance!

Disallowing SITE CHMOD in ProFTPD
Hi all! I'd like to know if someone has managed to forbid SITE CHMOD execution for certain users in potato's ProFTPD. My particular situation is a group of users (with chroot() jail) which should not be able to issue "chmod ..." command to the server. I've tried Limit {SITE,CHMOD,SITE CHMOD} with DenyGroup and it doesn't work. It does however with commands such as RETR, DELE and so forth. Package version is 1.2.0pre10-2 (hey, from our "stabilized" potato). Thanks for the help.

POP + Maildir not at HOME
Hi all, We are trying to set up a Debian mail server running potato. We are planning to use Postfix as an MTA and Maildir as the mail storing format. The server should be able to handle POP requests for the users to read their mail (we are an ISP that provides PPP connections). However, we would like to separate home directories from mail directories so we can stablish different quotas and/or filesystems, such as ReiserFS. So I have a pair of questions: - Can Postfix be configured to store mails in maildir format in a dirtectory other than the user's home? - What POP server could I use that supported Maildir? I've heard of the POP server provided with Qmail. And, if the maildir affair would not be possible, which POP server would you recommend anyway? Well, thanks a lot in advance, and keep on dpkging!
