Sparc Samba security update problem?

2001-04-19 Thread Julian Stoev
Hi!
I saw the announcement [SECURITY] [DSA-048-1] samba symlink attacks
http://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce-01/msg00047.html
and because apt-get was not updating, I downloded the SPARC packages 
and did dpkg -i on them 

The result is here:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of smbclient:
 smbclient depends on samba-common (= 2.0.7-3.2); however:
  Package samba-common is not configured yet.
 smbclient depends on libc6 (>= 2.2.2-2); however:
  Version of libc6 on system is 2.1.3-18.
 smbclient depends on libncurses5 (>= 5.2.20010310-1); however:
  Version of libncurses5 on system is 5.0-6.0potato1.

Errors were encountered while processing:

 smbfs

The problem appears to be in libc6 dependency?

|How can you run VNC server on a machine with no X server running?

There is no xserver-* package installed. X interface is accessible
only with VNC.
vncserver depends (correctly) only on libc6 (>= 2.1.2), libvncauth0, 
libz1, xbase-clients, xserver-common
and 
Provides: xserver

I've done this before on 486 using slink and later potato unstable.
Now I am trying to do the same on old SPARC, but it does not work 
for now.

VNC on SPARC?

2000-11-13 Thread Julian Stoev
Hi!
I am trying to get VNC working on SPARC Debian potato and I can't. I
installed only vncserver and dependent apps and libs. I don't want to
install and x-server on this machine.

VNC starts and then dies before I am able to connect to it. Nothing
appears in the vnc logs and syslog.

I used VNC before in similar configuration on x86 and had no
problems. I can't find any reason for this. The machine is:

Is there somebody using vnc on SPARC? Any help?

Thank you!
